Ricardo has to carry each of them on his back like a horse.
Then he has to let them throw him in the school's rooftop
cistern. This is accomplished, but Ricardo can't get
himself out of the cistern, sinks to the bottom, and
drowns. Carlos pulls him out, and he seems dead, but he's
not, quite. The teacher hears the commotion, takes Ricardo
to the school doctor, and covers for the boys with the
administration. At home Ricardo's mother insists that they
move him to a new school. In a private talk with his father
Ricardo explains everything, says he deserved his
punishment, and wants to stay in the public school. The
father understands because he wasn't always rich, and makes
up a story to calm his wife. Things go better at school
among the boys, and after a few days Ricardo dismisses his
chauffeur so he can play baseball in an alley. Since it's a
dirty place Ricardo takes his shoes off, and Memín guards
them. Some bigger boys come along and want to use the area
for their own game, and a fistfight starts. During the
confusion a thief picks up Ricardo's shoes. -- Call no.:

Summary: A scientist rejects science as useless for
discovering the secret of time travel and turns to black
magic instead. When he hears of a woman related to a witch
burned in 1692 living nearby, he spies on her through a
window and sees her summon the ghost of her ancestor. She
confirms to the ghost that only she can travel through time
by means of 'the room without a door.' The scientist gets
the witch evicted and buys the house so that he can search
for this room. He finds a small box with wallpaper made to
resemble a room. He breaks the box open and finds himself
back in 1692 tied to a burning stake. -- Data from Bob

Summary (from SkyRiver): If 15 year-old Kazuya Hasukawa's
stomach wasn't perforated in a car accident, it would have
been perforated by an ulcer! The woman he loves just
married his older brother, and worse, he is bringing her
home to live with them! Kazuya has no choice; he has to
leave, and the only option is to enter the exclusive
all-male boarding school, Ryokuto Academy. But since the
car accident sidelined Kazuya for quite some time, and he
ended up missing a little over a month of school! Entering
school, Kazuya is introduced to the Student Body President,
Shinobu Tezuka, and Kazuya's dorm's Head Resident, Mitsuru
lkeda, who both seem like nice, good-looking young men.
They escort Kazuya to his new home, the dorm named
Ryokurin-ryu--but because that is so difficult to
pronounce, they call it by its English translation,
Greenwood. And because Kazuya arrived at school late, he is
introduced to his new roommate in the last available room,
Shun Kisaragi, the cutest girl in the guy's dorm! --
