Bao Qing Fifth Middle School is a relatively large junior high school.
Scouting out the examination hall—essentially finding the classroom that matches the one on the exam admission ticket—can familiarize you with the environment, providing a sense of calm on the morning of the exam.
Many people don't bother, but Li Shi likes to be thorough in his preparations, so he arrives early to take a look, he has both money and time.
On his way to find the classroom, he encounters numerous exam candidates, all of them are quite young, but to his surprise, it seems that there are also many "older" candidates who, like him, are over twenty-five.
"Are more and more people wanting to become teachers?"
Leaving the school and standing at the school gate, Li Shi gazes at the shops lining the street. Seeing the familiar white porcelain tiles and terracotta tiles on the walls, a strong sense of history washes over him.
