Watching people constantly pass him by, Kanda Shuichi felt calm. He also wanted to get back to the dormitory to rest, but he was already moving as fast as he could.
When he arrived at the first-year dormitory, the students had already completed the check-in procedures. However, the check-in was just showing the student card and getting the key.
From this, it was clear that the dormitory assignments were already arranged in advance.
While outside, Kanda Shuichi had observed that the dormitory building had at least ten floors, with each floor having about ten or more rooms. He also saw girls entering the dormitory, so it seemed to be co-ed.
But even though there were over a hundred people on the floor, there was only one elevator. If all the students chose to go to class at the last minute, they might be late because of the elevator.
After roughly observing the lobby, Kanda Shuichi walked towards the administrator.
"Hello, I'm here to check in."
"Okay, please show your student ID and place it on the sensor here."
The dormitory administrator was a young woman in professional attire. She was very serious and responsible, not slacking off just because Kanda Shuichi was a student.
Opening his student ID, Kanda Shuichi followed her instructions and placed his phone on the sensor area she indicated.
"Alright, please wait a moment."
"Thank you."
While she was working on the computer, Kanda Shuichi looked up and saw a row of boxes behind the administrator.
They looked like boxes, but to Kanda Shuichi, they felt a bit like the parcel lockers he had seen in his previous life, neatly arranged like drawers.
Each drawer had a corresponding number, like 201, 202, and so on.
"Kanda Shuichi, this is your room card. Please keep it safe."
Taking the card from the administrator, Kanda Shuichi casually asked about the boxes: "Excuse me, what are those?"
"Ah, those are for storing spare room cards. If a student's room card is damaged or lost, they can come here to get a spare."
I see, spare room cards.
"Can only the student themselves get these room cards?"
"Not necessarily, as long as you explain the purpose, you can..."
Since it wasn't a secret, the administrator didn't hide it.
Kanda Shuichi immediately thought of the potential risks of these room cards. If anyone could enter his room, that would be a problem.
It would be fine if it were a teacher, but if it were someone with bad intentions, Kanda Shuichi's physique wouldn't be able to stop them.
Moreover, Kanda Shuichi had a feeling that over time, he might acquire more advanced technology. Once these items were taken out, they couldn't be put back into the system space.
If they were exposed, it might not necessarily cause problems, but there would always be some unnecessary risks.
"Is there a way to avoid this? I would like to have some private space."
Thinking this was a rather demanding request, Kanda Shuichi was surprised when the administrator immediately nodded and started typing on the computer.
"I understand. I'll add a security protocol for you. Besides yourself, only the student council president and the homeroom teacher can access your room card."
The homeroom teacher made sense, but why the student council president?
Just as Kanda Shuichi was about to gather more information, a voice came from behind.
"Kanda, what a coincidence. Are you checking in?"
Hirata Yosuke's voice came from behind. He was holding a box, and another male student was following him.
So fast!
You move so fast!
I just went back to the classroom and then came to the dormitory, and you've already gotten your books and come back?
So envious!
"Yes, I'm done. You go ahead."
Saying this, Kanda Shuichi stepped aside and saw the boy behind Hirata. Besides having a bag on each shoulder, there was nothing special about him.
However, Kanda Shuichi remembered him. During the self-introductions, he had heard his name, Miyake Akito, who was good at archery.
"Thank you, Miyake."
Kanda Shuichi suddenly thanked him, which made Miyake Akito pause, not understanding why this boy was thanking him.
"The textbooks Hirata was holding belong to me."
Got it.
"No, I was just helping Hirata."
"But it started because of me, so please accept my thanks."
"Well..."
Hirata, standing nearby, watched Kanda Shuichi and Miyake Akito's conversation with a motherly smile.
"To thank you both for bringing my textbooks, I'll share some information with you."
Kanda Shuichi smiled and then told them the time on the room card.
"I see, thank you." Miyake Akito nodded. "If a stranger entered my room, I'd be troubled too."
"You're welcome. I said it was a thank you."
It seemed the three of them grew closer.
While Hirata and Miyake were checking in, Kanda Shuichi put the textbooks Hirata brought into his bag.
Then he took out his room card and looked at the number.
404, room 4 on the fourth floor, not bad, at least it's not 502.
"I'm in room 409. What about you?" Hirata took out his room card and got his bag from Miyake Akito.
"I'm in 404."
"I'm also on the fourth floor, room 408."
"Let's go up together. Want to have lunch together later?"
Just as he invited them, Hirata's phone rang.
"Sorry."
Looking at his phone, Hirata immediately showed an apologetic expression.
"Sorry, I might have something to handle later."
As the social expert who organized the self-introductions in the class, Hirata had gained the trust of most of the students in just two or three hours. Quite impressive.
"No problem, Miyake and I can go together, as long as Miyake doesn't mind me walking slowly."
"I don't mind."
"Okay, but let's add each other as friends first."
So, with Hirata Yosuke's help, Kanda Shuichi got his classmates' contact information for the first time and successfully joined the class group.
After joining the group, Kanda Shuichi was once again amazed by Hirata Yosuke's social skills.
In just a few hours, more than thirty of the forty students in the class had joined. That's not something an average social butterfly can do!
