Vol 5 Chapter 217: Self-defense

  Jiuyou College Dormitory Hill, in a small single room.
  Nicholas got up a bit early today. Before the day was completely bright, he got up, fumbled, sat in the corner of the bed under the quilt, and looked out at the heavy sky through the fuzzy glass. Looks tired.
On the gray stone desk in front of the bed, a copy of the Beta Town Post was spread out. Through the dim light from outside the window, you can clearly see the topics in boldface on a certain page of the newspaper-Weekend News Check: Murloc Demonstration , Public-sponsored students are suspected of murder, Jiuyou College students speak their minds.
  Not far from the post, there is also a folded newspaper of the first university, which also has a long report. It's just that compared with the provocative and ambiguous topics of the Beta Town Post, the school newspaper is much more clever in its vocabulary—Seprano and Friedman have expressed their opinions one after another, and they are all paying attention to this classmate.
  It can be seen that both newspapers have been read many times by the owner. The paper is covered with small wrinkles, and there are many paragraphs and words in the article that have been drawn with red lines.
  For a long time, Nicholas finally took a deep breath and cursed in a low voice:
   "Damn it."
  He is the ‘student who both Friedman and Seprano follow’ in the school newspaper, and he is also the nine students who ‘speaks the heart’ in the Beta Town Post.
  But this is not a good thing. Especially in the current public opinion environment.
  Nicholas does not think he is better at coping with this whirlpool of public opinion than Zheng Qing. Especially since he has been transferred three times like this with mediocre grades, is there any honorable person. The current situation is really worrying.
  "You just expressed your opinion at the wrong time and in the wrong place...this matter has nothing to do with you." Liu Feifei's words of comfort still echoed in his ears.
The witch did not alienate Nicholas because of his mistake, but stood firmly behind him and cheered him up: "...Don't be affected by these rumors, you are a man, be brave... Get rid of the current public opinion Environment, is what you said wrong? We do support a just struggle."
  The truth is that it is true.
  But reality does not work according to reason.
  The reality of adults is often unreasonable.
  Even if it is correct, it is absolutely wrong to put it in an inappropriate context. Just like Downton said to him after a certain class: "It depends on your position to express your opinions. If your is crooked, don't blame others for you. With our status, how can we qualify to talk about'objective neutrality'" Four words? We are from the Jiuyou Academy, and we naturally carry the label of the Academy!"
  Nicholas never boasted ‘objectively neutral’, nor did he intend to be an opinion leader.
  He only accepted the interview with the Beta Town Post for the ‘throat treatment fee’ of fifty coppers. He would never do it if he knew that things were going to be so big.
  In reality, there is no ‘if’ and no ‘if’.
  Everyone must be responsible for what he has said-if he doesn’t want others to take responsibility for him.
  Thinking of this, Nicholas got up suddenly, pulled off the quilt he was wearing, rubbed his face vigorously, and then patted hard: "You are a man... You can't let girls stand in front of you."
  As a public-funded student and the first-year chief student of Jiuyou College, Liu Feifei has recently suffered a lot of pressure from public opinion. All these pressures were brought by him. Nicholas wanted to change this situation.
  Even if you can't shelter you from the wind and rain, you must find a way to make you stand in the wind and rain a little easier and warm your body.
  Thinking about this, he pulled the chair in front of the desk and sat down.
   Then he smoothed the manuscript paper he had prepared, and grabbed the gray feather pen in the ink bottle.
   "You finally thought of picking me up," the quill exclaimed angrily: "I have been drinking ink all night... Have you thought about writing something?"
   "Think about it, think about it."
  The wizard murmured, moved the quill over the manuscript paper, and wrote his name without hesitation. Nicholas Green Oswall made the following statement...
  Outside the window is foggy and spring is waning.
  ……
  ……
  Jiuyou College, in front of Book Mountain Hall.
  The early witches are queuing to enter the hall.
   "The atmosphere in the school is so weird these days." Jiang Yu stood behind Liu Feifei and sighed softly.
  "Are there?" The chief student shook his head while holding a copy of "The Philosophy of Magic". Hearing the words, he looked around blankly: "Aren't everyone studying hard?"
  Indeed, judging from the picture in front of the library, the students of Jiuyou College are indeed studying hard.
  But this is a survivor bias.
  "Don't you think there are too many topics about Nicholas in the newspaper these past two days?" Jiang Yuyi pointed out: "Even Sir Friedman and Serprano have expressed their opinions."
   "He didn't mean it," Liu Feifei finally followed the rhythm of the chat, and said startledly: "Moreover, he didn't mean to say anything wrong...There are many topics about Zheng Qing in the newspaper."
   Jiang Yu resisted the urge to excuse. Zheng Qing is different from Nicholas.
  Different from the slightly naive nerd in front of him, Jiang Yu, who was born in the wizarding clan, can see Nicholas' current situation more clearly than most students in the college.
  As the so-called tens of thousands of referents, it ends without disease. The pressure of words is terrible in any society. What's more, this is a wizarding world where there are ‘mantra’ and ‘exit into constitution’.
  "Perhaps you should ask Nicholas to take a few days off and take a rest." Jiang Yu considered it and gave his own suggestions. Time is always the only way to alleviate conflicts.
"No," Liu Feifei shook her head vigorously, and said seriously: "Now is the most critical period of the school year. I can't afford to delay it... He has been in the first grade for two years, and there is no time to delay. The big deal is that we stay away. "
   Jiang Yu sighed deeply.
Next to   , a dumb voice suddenly heard~EbookFREE.me~ Rest? "Li Meng hugged the plush bear, his eyes still not fully opened: "Cousin, is the library closed?" Are we going back to rest? "
  She did not pay attention to the main points of Jiang Yu's conversation with Liu Feifei, and only heard one word she wanted to hear the most.
  Although she is also in the line to enter the library, this is not her intention. Compared with queuing, she is more willing to play chess with Zhou Gong on Saturday morning, drink tea or something.
  But with Jiang Yu, a hardworking cousin, the little witch's wishes became a luxury.
   "Wake up! You haven't written a word of the homework in the magic text class!" Jiang Yu grabbed Li Meng's shoulder and shook it vigorously: "At a young age, how can I sleep so much in the morning!"
  Li Meng was finally awakened by this vigorous swing.
   "There are still two days left." She muttered, holding the stuffed bear in her arms tighter. The plush bear closed his mouth obediently, and would never interrupt when the two mistresses were talking about studying.
  "You only have one morning to do your homework." Jiang Yu added coldly: "For the rest of the time, I have prepared three sets of test papers for you. Don't always think about being lazy."
   Li Meng's face suddenly collapsed, and he felt that his whole life was much darker.
  Like this misty morning today.
