This novel contains sensitive and taboo content like R*pe, Mu**er etc. Read only if you are comfortable.

At lunchtime, teachers led their students in lines to the cafeteria.

Many nutritious dishes had already been prepared at the counters. After children chose their food, small service robots followed them with trays until they sat down, then placed the food in front of them.

As soon as Song Xianyue entered, he was attracted by the delicious smells. When it was his turn, he ordered impulsively.

“Auntie, I want this, this, this, this, and that!”

He pointed eagerly at many dishes and looked up expectantly.

The server was a kind-looking auntie, but she didn’t immediately agree.

“Little one, can you really finish so much? Eating too much at once isn’t good for you. Are you sure you won’t get a stomachache?”

Different children had different appetites, and some didn’t know their own limits.

“If you’re sure you can eat all of this and won’t feel uncomfortable, I can serve it. But if not, you should order less. Health is the most important thing.”

Song Xianyue came to his senses and scratched his head shyly.

“Sorry, Auntie. I can’t eat that much. I’ll choose again and get less.”

He reordered, choosing only what he could finish.

Although he wanted to try every dish, Auntie was right—overeating was unhealthy.

Besides, he’d be in kindergarten for a long time.

He could try different dishes every day and eventually taste them all!

After getting his food, he found an empty table. The little robot placed his tray in front of him.

Soon, Song Buli and the others joined him.

“I’m over here! I saved seats! Let’s eat together!”

They sat around the large table. Eight children together still felt comfortable.

Song Xianyue scooped up some meat and stretched his spoon to the center.

“Hehe! Let’s celebrate our first day of kindergarten!”

The others raised their spoons and tapped them together.

“Celebrate our first day!”

Then they happily started eating.

Most students quietly enjoyed their lunch.

But one was different—Doris.

After getting her food, she sat directly opposite Garivi.

Garivi glanced at her, then lowered her head and kept eating.

Doris snorted loudly.

“Hmph!”

It was impossible to ignore.

Garivi put down her spoon and looked up coldly with her silver eyes.

Doris finally noticed that Garivi was looking at her properly. Feeling proud, she crossed her forepaws and lifted her chin arrogantly. Even her tail was raised high behind her.

A strange mechanical voice came from Garivi’s light-brain:

“Do you need something?”

Doris clenched her teeth and pointed at Garivi.

“So what if you got first place in the exam? What’s so great about that?!”

“I’m telling you, one day I, Doris, will definitely defeat you!”

Garivi flicked her tail impatiently.

“Want to fight?”

Doris widened her eyes in shock.

“What do you take me for?! I mean I’ll beat you fair and square with my grades!”

“I’m telling you, this time I just didn’t perform well. Next time, I’ll definitely get first place!”

Garivi: “……”

Doris stomped her feet in anger at Garivi’s cold reaction.

Why wasn’t she responding at all? Why was she so indifferent?

It was as if Doris were a ridiculous clown making a scene!

At least argue back a little, okay?!

“Are you even listening to me? I said I’m going to beat you! Don’t you have anything to say?!”

Suddenly, Garivi smiled at her.

Doris thought Garivi was trying to be friendly. She immediately felt that her behavior just now had been a bit inappropriate.

Feeling guilty, she said:

“Since you’re being nice to me, I’ll treat you better in the future. I was a little harsh just now… I’m sorry…”

But in the next second, her fantasy was shattered.

“Teacher! Doris is verbally bullying me!”

Garivi’s voice broke the calm of the cafeteria.

The students who had been eating quietly all stretched their necks to look over, trying to see what was going on.

Some students who loved excitement even left their seats to watch.

Several teachers hurried over. The safety supervisors also received the news and immediately began checking the cafeteria’s surveillance footage.

Other teachers stayed behind to maintain order, preventing any stampede.

“Children, please stay in your seats and don’t run around!”

While keeping order, the teachers dragged a few curious students back to their seats.

Before long, Doris was taken away by a teacher—along with her lunch.

Several teachers stayed with Garivi to comfort her. After she finished eating, she was also taken away.

The students were left restless and curious.

Some had heard the voice from Garivi’s light-brain, but most were too far away to hear clearly.

Song Buli and the others were seated far away too, so they had no idea what happened.

Song Xianyue was dying of curiosity.

“What happened just now? Why were Doris and Garivi both taken away?”

Song Fu buried his head in his food.

“Who knows? It doesn’t have anything to do with us.”

Song Xianyue scratched his head.

“I know it doesn’t concern us, but I’m still curious.”

Song Chiyu guessed:

“Could it be that they did well in the exam, so the teachers took them out to reward them?”

Song Yuexin shook her head.

“If it was a reward, why not do it in class?”

Song Yinyun speculated:

“Maybe they fought and got caught, so they were called out?”

Song Xiuhu narrowed his eyes.

“Probably not… Why would they fight in the cafeteria?”

Even after lunch, they still couldn’t figure it out.

But soon, they learned the truth.

Normally, after lunch, students would go to nap time. But that day, they were taken back to their classrooms instead.

Every class heard the same announcement.

Teacher Yoya stood on the podium.

“Children, we have a holiday this afternoon! We’ve informed your guardians to come pick you up. You’ll be going home soon!”

At first, the students were overjoyed.

Then came the shocking news.

“Today, a verbal bullying incident happened in our kindergarten, so everyone gets the afternoon off.”

“At noon in the cafeteria, Doris verbally bullied Garivi. After investigation, the evidence is clear. The kindergarten will punish Doris.”

“We must treat our classmates kindly. Don’t bully others. If you’re bullied, report it to the teacher. We will protect you.”

Her expression was serious.

“Whether verbal or physical bullying, both are extremely bad behaviors. Our kindergarten will never allow this!”

The group stared at each other in shock.

They huddled together nervously.

Song Fu murmured, “Bullying…”

Song Chiyu hugged himself. “That’s scary…”

Song Yuexin shrank back.

“What if we get bullied too…”

Song Xiuhu patted her shoulder.

“Don’t worry… probably not…”

Song Yang shrank inward in fear. Song An sighed and hugged his tail.

Song Xianyue broke down.

“QAQ I don’t want to be bullied…”

Song Buli tried to act like a reliable big brother.

“Don’t be scared! I… I’ll protect you!”

Soon, Garivi returned with several teachers. Doris returned with a safety supervisor.

Garivi calmly went back to her seat.

Doris walked onto the podium, tears in her eyes, and bowed her head to apologize.

“Garivi… I’m sorry… I shouldn’t have verbally bullied you… I shouldn’t have provoked you… I shouldn’t have forced you to respond… I was wrong… I’m sorry…”

Her punishment was announced.

She had to apologize publicly and compensate Garivi, paid by her guardian.

Moreover, her future enrollment would be decided by Garivi.

Garivi could choose whether to expel her.
