Detention (返校)

The first article of the Constitution of the Republic of China,

The Republic of China, founded on the Three Principles of the People,

shall be a democratic republic, governed by the people and for the people.

Sun Yat-sen, the Father of the Nation,

implemented the Three Principles of the People

and established the Five-Power Constitution.

The Three Principles of the People was the root…

-Go! -…the goal of the founding of the nation.

The Five-Power Constitution was the guiding principle.

-Stop! -Let go!

The fundamental laws of the nation

emphasize the basic principle of the separation of powers.

-The government serves the people… -Stand straight!

-…with the power of governance… -Walk properly!

-…and the people have the power… -Let go!

-In this way, the people… -Let go. I can walk on my own.

Power and ability are clearly separated.

Now, let's look at the essence of the Three Principles.

President Chiang said

that the essence of the Three Principles of the People

are ethics, democracy, and science.

Ethics is the essence of nationalism.

A FEW DAYS LATER, A STUDENT, MS. FANG

FELL TO HER DEATH FROM HANCUI BUILDING ON THE SCHOOL CAMPUS.

TALK OF GHOSTS SPREAD LIKE WILDFIRE.

THE SCHOOL HIRED THE LOCAL CITY GOD TEMPLE

TO HOLD REGULAR RITUALS AND EXORCISMS.

HANCUI BUILDING WAS DEEMED OFF-LIMITS.

RECURRING MEMORIES BECOME WARPED

AND DISTORTED OVER 30 YEARS OF SUPPRESSION AND PROHIBITION,

ALLOWING HATRED TO QUIETLY SPREAD.

THE PAST NEVER FADES AWAY

UNTIL YOU OPEN YOUR EYES AGAIN.

THE 88TH YEAR OF THE REPUBLIC,

HANCUI BUILDING, GREENWOOD HIGH SCHOOL

Come out.

I said, come out.

Come out! Are you brats done fooling around?

Are you done fooling around?

If you don't come out, you'll be given major demerits.

Are you afraid to come out?

Cheng Wen-liang.

Is that you?

Liu Yun-hsiang.

Come out.

I know you're inside.

Come out.

Come out.

Stop playing tricks.

Cheng Wen-liang.

Liu Yun-hsiang.

Is it both of you?

THREE DAYS AGO

JINLUAN INTERCITY BUS

Just worry about yourself.

Is she your daughter?

Yes.

Yun-hsiang.

Say hello.

Hello, ma'am.

You look quite elegant.

You're a beautiful mom too.

Are you here to visit friends?

No.

We came from Taipei for her studies.

I heard Greenwood High School has a high college enrollment rate

and a nice environment.

It allows students to focus on their studies.

Next stop, Jinluan.

Young girl.

This place hasn't changed in decades.

You'll have to get used to it.

Yun-hsiang.

Hurry up.

Someone's waiting for us.

I've tidied up the place.

Goodness.

You can leave your luggage here.

For the rest, as you said,

you can check and see what you don't need.

I'll get rid of them right away.

Who lived in this house before?

It belonged to my relative.

It has been vacant for many years.

Well, not many people move to Jinluan.

I specially hired people to renovate the place

because you are moving in.

I've upgraded the water, electricity, and gas lines.

I even hired someone to repaint the house.

Okay.

See if there's anything that you need me to fix.

No, how could I?

BRAVE NEW WORLD

Yun-hsiang, go tidy up.

School will start in a few days.

Okay.

Mrs. Liu, if you need anything else, you can just tell me.

I'll leave now.

I'll walk you out.

There's no need.

-I can see myself out. -No, I should.

The teacher said your award-winning work at school

also has a chance of winning competitions in other counties.

Mom, good morning.

Good morning.

Listen, I went to the market this morning.

The fruits and vegetables here are so fresh.

The air is clean too.

Your dad will like it here.

You're my daughter.

How others see you

will be reflected towards me.

We finally get to come here and have a fresh start.

Do a good job.

Wait for your dad to take us home, okay?

GREENWOOD

Are you a transfer student?

KANGXING HIGH SCHOOL

Take it out yourself.

Which grade are you in?

What's your name?

Class 2-1.

Liu Yun-hsiang.

Greenwood High School hasn't changed in decades.

It's all for your own good.

I know everything you do behind my back.

Don't assume you can hide it!

You got in trouble on your first day.

The school forbids all reading materials unrelated to the curriculum.

Listen carefully.

Class 2-1 is a good class that follows the rules.

Since you're here, focus on your studies.

I don't care about your past, but don't give me trouble.

Stand.

Attention.

Salute.

Good morning, miss.

Sit.

We have a new transfer student today.

Come here. Introduce yourself to the class.

Hello, everyone. My name is Liu Yun-hsiang.

I transferred from Kangxing High School in Taipei.

-I look forward to meeting you all. -Okay, there's a seat over there.

-Sit there. -Thank you, miss.

Good job in the competition this time.

Class Rep, give me the name list later.

CHENG WEN-LIANG, DEVIL

Your class rep is striving to win honor for you.

The rest of you shouldn't be complacent.

I saw that the hallway was very dirty.

I said it has to be clean.

Would any of you touch it?

Devils.

Go clean it up now.

The rest, take out your textbooks.

Let's review the chapters that will be covered in the next exam.

Page 13.

Hi. I'm the class rep, Su Chieh-yu.

I'm Yun-hsiang. Hello.

Why is your student ID number one series different than ours?

I studied in the UK for a year in my sophomore year,

so I'm one year older than everybody.

So why did you come to Jinluan?

The town I stayed in in the UK was very simple and rustic.

This place is very similar. I really like it.

She's a devil. Ignore her.

-Act like you don't see her. -Yes, stop looking.

Come.

More.

Come.

Keep going.

Okay!

Damn you.

How dare you drop the items for the deities.

I didn't mean to.

It would be disastrous if you did.

How old are you?

You're still so ignorant.

Stop hitting your son on the head. He's dumb enough.

This is for the City God.

You'll be struck by lightning with this attitude.

It's not like I chose this job.

Of course you didn't!

City God chose you.

Who are you to choose City God?

Enough. Hurry up, both of you.

Hurry up.
