 A little girl was sitting on a chair, diligently writing on the blackboard.

 She was concentrating on her writing, paying no attention to the large number of students around her. She is very focused.

 The meaning of what was scribbled on the blackboard could be summarized simply as follows: we will use the surrounding countries that do not like Laval to isolate Laval and protect it as if we are helping them, which will eventually put Laval under our control.
