The fallout from the Beta Town Post report is not simply over.
The next day, Zheng Qing heard that Professor Zhu Si had used a wall-hanging spell on an Alpha student who questioned her illegal dealings with wizards in the North District, and hung him upside down from the ceiling for most of the class.
It is said that after class, the poor child's head was swollen like a pig's head, and he was sent to the school hospital. Lin Guo told Zheng Qing that until now, the child still has some short-term sequelae of slurred speech and intermittent convulsions.
In the afternoon of the same day, the joint meeting of professors of Alphaburg and First University received a fierce letter of protest from the parents of the students and a brief question from Dan Hager.
Then Lecturer Zhu Si, who had been employed for less than a month, received an honorable suspension. The school also issued an emergency notice, criticizing the incident and repeatedly emphasizing that teaching is mainly about guidance and education, and students should not be punished in any way.
Any corporal punishment is not allowed.
This small accident was intertwined with the imminent school hunt, making the atmosphere on campus even more chaotic. It was like an open-air vegetable market, everyone was shouting, but no one could listen.
What are the people in the distance talking about? I can only focus on the vegetable stall in front of me.
For example, Zheng Qing.
Surrounded by the noise of academic pressure, hunter training, the Seven Deadly Sins Trial and Zhu Si's punishment, he quickly learned to focus only on the thing closest to him - concentrating on class when he was in class, and burying his head in eating when he was eating.
, pretending that the Seven Deadly Sins don't exist when the masked man doesn't come to your door, and go training with the hunting team when you have time at night.
Therefore, when the Forgiveness Hunting Team was training on Thursday night and he saw Zhu Si who had transformed into a little witch again at the edge of the hunting ground, he was not surprised at all and naturally came forward to express his condolences.
"I thought you were still writing reviews in the office at this point." The young public-funded student put on elbow pads on his arms and interrupted the chat of several little witches with a smile.
Tonight, Su Ya and Li Meng were also there, comforting the unhappy little lecturer.
Before Zhu Si could speak, classmate Li Meng raised his eyelids and glanced at the wizard.
"It's Da Zhusi who's hanging on the people. Does he have the same relationship with my little Zhu Si?" She retorted plausibly: "Whoever takes the blame should bear the blame. This matter can't be messed up! It's her who should be the one to criticize Da Zhusi.
Write it yourself!”
Zheng Qing thought this was quite reasonable, and just as he was about to agree, the little fox girl next to him expressed a different opinion.
"Having said that,"
Su Ya bit her finger and twitched her furry ears cautiously: "But just like a wizard who turns into a male cat and makes a female cat pregnant... the wizard is also responsible..."
There was a violent coughing sound from nearby.
Zheng Qing didn't even need to turn around to know who the coughing sound came from - apart from Jiang Yu, there was only Lan Que in that direction. The wizard didn't think Lan Que would cough so violently - similarly, he felt something on his face
Thermal expansion, the sky is simply dark, and others should not notice this detail.
Of course, whether Jiang Yu was coughing or Zheng Qing was blushing, it doesn't mean that something happened to the two cats. It's just that the chestnut held up by the little fox girl was a little special, making them more sensitive.
The wizard licked his lips and felt that his tongue was a little stiff.
Between discussing with Su Ya whether the male cat should take responsibility or discussing with Li Meng who should write the review, he chose the third possibility, which was to directly comfort the person involved.
"It's not your fault." The young public-funded student comforted with a stiff smile: "Everyone knows that there are a bunch of bastards living in Alphaburg... Just hanging him from the ceiling is a big deal!"
"It's not all..." A weak voice came from the other side.
Zheng Qing turned around and saw classmate Lin Guo with a disapproving expression on his face, and it suddenly dawned on him - there was a genuine Alpha in the Exoneration Hunting Team.
So he realized that the words he just used were inappropriate, and immediately made up for it: "...Of course, except Lin Guo, he is one of the few good kids in Alpha Castle."
The little wizard looked confused. He always felt that Zheng Qing's statement was still inappropriate, but for a while he couldn't find the problem.
Apart from this minor glitch, Zheng Qing's method of changing the topic was generally very successful.
After hearing his comfort, Su Ya immediately forgot about the chestnut she had just raised, and hurriedly continued to comfort the depressed Zhu Si: "That's right, no matter how big the problem, the school won't do anything to you... our lady
I said, your father is a legendary wizard, even if it is for his sake, the school will show enough tolerance..."
This is the truth, but it always sounds like a bully villain. To say it so straightforwardly makes people feel uncomfortable.
Zhu Si became increasingly frustrated.
"So, if you had stayed in school honestly and not gone to the Sakura Tavern, you would not have been punished like this." Zheng Qing felt that the stiff smile on his face had softened a lot, and he tried to return to his original train of thought:
"...And the school is not a dreamland. Teachers cannot sacrifice students to ancient gods casually."
He was teasing the little witch about the horrifying rumors in the dreamland.
Zhu Si, who was originally depressed, suddenly became a little angry when he heard this.
"I am a teacher!"
The little witch raised her eyebrows, clenched her fist and waved at the wizard: "You were embarrassed by a student in class, don't you even have the power to punish me?"
"He's just a student, there's no point hanging him upside down from the ceiling..."
"But he is a half-giant, three times as big as me! I can't think of any other way to deal with it except hanging him under the ceiling."
Zheng Qing looked at the little witch who was no taller than his chest at this moment, his eyes were a little subtle.
Zhu Si felt that look was full of offense.
"You can punish him for copying the lecture notes." The young public-funded student did not wait for her to get angry and quickly gave her new suggestions. At the same time, she kindly reminded: "...just like Li Meng, every student in the school is bigger than her.
But she wouldn’t hang people from the ceiling casually.”
"None of my business!"
Classmate Li Meng said that he was very innocent when he was shot, and said angrily: "Size doesn't mean anything! The babies of mountain giants are bigger than most adult wizards. Are wizards afraid of them?"
Zheng Qing felt that the discussion with the little witches had gradually become chaotic and had already deviated from his predetermined direction.
So he tried to reason from another angle: "It's true that many people sleep during your class."
But immediately, he was slapped in the face by lecturer Zhu Si: "I teach 'dream analysis'! If they don't sleep in class, how can we let them experience the most realistic dreams!"
"You are a teacher, and you cannot blame other Alpha students just because an Alpha student was interviewed by the Beta Town Post."
Saying that, the wizard quickly took out his pocket watch, pretended to glance at the time, and then immediately looked around and shouted: "Is everyone here? Come on, we have to seize the time to train..."
