Yu Huaijin returned, but she didn't enter the classroom immediately. Instead, she turned around and first took down the Red List posted on the long corridor outside, then walked into the classroom and placed it on the wall beside the podium, in the most conspicuous position.

Zhao Rong returned the salute.
