Okay, now it's time for the third-person narrator to tell us what's up with the other students in the class. He's got a message for the newcomer: don't talk to him because he's so arrogant. He tells the newcomer to ignore the girl sitting next to him, because she's going to blow up if he doesn't respond to her. The girl is the main character in the comic, and she is also the daughter of Daugherty and Cai Ling. The narrator tells us that Cai Ling is the "loved daughter" in his family, and that he can't get away from her.
