New Gods of North America

After finishing a day's classes, Wayne tinkered with himself a bit.

After nightfall, I excitedly went to the location stated on the fraternity's welcome party invitation.

According to the movies and TV series he had watched in his previous life, Wayne was still looking forward to the fraternity party, mainly because he wanted to see the world.

Based on Wayne's current understanding of Ian Fisk, the fraternity he joined should be considered relatively "top-notch" in at least some aspects.

The Pointed Hat Society is said to be a long-established fraternity at George and Anna College, at least that's what Ian Fisk said.

The "fraternity" in colleges and universities can actually be seen as a kind of "internal academic society" or "dissident gathering" at first, so it has more or less the flavor of a secret society.

However, by the time of Ian Fisk at the latest, the focus had already been on "socialization".

Low emotional intelligence is probably called "forming small circles", while high emotional intelligence is probably called "making friends" or "making connections" or something like that.

The dormitories of the "Pointed Hat Society" do not look much different from ordinary student dormitories.

The structure looks roughly the same, with slightly improved decoration, but the location is good, it can be said to be relatively "remote" or "hidden".

During the welcome party, the fraternity dormitories were still semi-open to the public.

A student checked the invitation letter at the entrance of the courtyard and signaled Wayne that he could go in.

Party, here I come.

Open this door, and you should see a bustling crowd, lively singing and dancing, and hot and unrestrained sex… Huh?!

Wayne pushed open the door to the fraternity house.

I found that it was much quieter inside than I had imagined, and there was no sense of vibration from the noise at all.

Walking a little further in, there are some female students, but the ratio of male to female is probably like "a few female pilgrims came to the Buddhist temple".

There was no singing or dancing, and the atmosphere felt more like a so-called "literary salon" or "bar."

Everyone eats, drinks and chats.

How come it looks even plainer than the ball at the manor?!

Luke Matthew, who had met Wayne before and gave him the invitation to the party, noticed Wayne over there.

So he quickly ended his conversation with his companions and came over, "How is it? Our fraternity party looks pretty good, right? There are quite a few girls here."

Hmm...

I can’t say it’s “wrong”, but it seems like you guys lack happiness here…

"Come on, I'll show you our fraternity room." Luke Matthew patted Wayne's shoulder and took Wayne upstairs.

There were some girls upstairs, chatting with the boys in the corridor or in the room, but they all kept their social distance.

At this moment, the doors of most of the rooms in the corridor were open, and some freshmen were being taken on tour or sitting inside chatting.

If I must say, the atmosphere here is actually freer than that of unmarried men and women at a dance party.

At least I don't have to take advantage of dancing or anything like that, and I don't have to worry about some strange lady coming to remind me or disturb me.

The room is similar to the dormitory Wayne lives in now. It is mostly arranged as a single room. In addition to the desk, there are also bookcases.

There are also places where two people live together, but they are basically the "triple room" on the other side, which is relatively more spacious.

I passed by a room where four or five men and women were sitting and chatting.

Passing by another room, a boy was showing two girls around his house. One of the girls had starry eyes.

Luke Matthew suddenly pushed open a half-open door, and a man and a woman inside jumped out suddenly. They were probably kissing just now, or at least they showed no signs of trying to break free from their clothes. Then Luke Matthew was met with screams and friendly greetings.

Wayne probably had an idea in mind.

It felt like it was just like the school he had attended before. He probably couldn't even think of having a happy "party" in this day and age.

"New members usually have to live with roommates, but we can make free internal allocations here instead of forced combinations. If you are in this situation, you can directly choose a separate room without having to go through the fraternity's 'test'.

"Well, actually you still need to. But Ian's recommendation is enough for you to pass successfully, and we won't be too strict with you."

Luke Matthew took Wayne to an empty room. It was not directly connected to the walls of other rooms, so it was relatively private. "Ian used to live here. He said he wanted to do you a favor. If you join, he would let you live in the best room."

"Do you know Ian Fisk?" Wayne asked.

"Ian entered school a year earlier than me. It was his suggestion that I became the social manager of the fraternity." Luke Matthew did not hide it. "It is said that his family plans to develop industries in Los Angeles. After graduation, I will go there to apply for a position."

Oh, Ian Fisk's "own people".

Wayne shifted his curiosity and asked, "What kind of tests are usually required to join a fraternity?"

"It depends. We have a traditional method, but we also have to improvise. Newcomers must be willing to 'persevere' and 'embarrass themselves', or at least conquer the other brothers in some way."

After walking around, Luke Matthew patted Wayne on the shoulder:

"The invitation to the test will be sent out in three days, and the specific time should be next week. I look forward to your participation then. You can enjoy the party tonight and chat with the girls casually. However, their dormitories have curfew at night, so be careful of the time, otherwise others will leave before you can chat for a few minutes.

"By the way, being able to take a girl that other people like away to chat alone can also be considered a kind of 'conquest'."

I always feel like I'm watching an early period drama...

As expected, we should not have too many unrealistic expectations in this era when unmarried ladies are not allowed to go shopping alone...

Luke Matthew went to meet other newcomers who might be his favorites. Wayne stood by the railing in the corridor and looked towards the first floor for a while.

Since we are here now, we might as well experience some campus socializing.

Although girls may not be as pretty or as exquisitely dressed as young ladies, their youth is always equally charming.

All right,

He actually just saw Miss Olivia, Miss Russell and Miss Mary who had just arrived, and planned to go down to say hello to them, then chat with others for a while and then leave.

Compared to what Wayne had seen at the dance,

The outfits of these three girls tonight are more popular and conservative. Their clothes are not particularly generous evening gowns, and they basically don’t wear any gorgeous jewelry. It can only be considered a little "embellishment".

Miss Olivia was probably curious about the fraternity her brother mentioned, so she brought her companions to take a look.

When Wayne went over to say hello, he almost had to climb over the human wall formed by the enthusiastic boys.

Then that evening many students heard,

There was a freshman in the seminary this year who had previously been a sheriff in a western town. He even took away the three most beautiful girls at the party.

Wayne: No, they just wanted to go back to the dormitory, so I just gave them a ride.
