Chapter 90: Beyond the Report
After reading the whole article, Zheng Qing's face turned a little pale.
He felt a little out of breath.
"I didn't have any credit awards...... And I don't remember saying that last sentence!" He stared at the last sentence at the end of the article and muttered, "This is malicious speculation...... Are journalists writing articles like this now?"
On the photo on the side of the column, Zheng Qing's silhouette is still silently holding a coffee cup, motionless. At this moment, Zheng Qing very much hoped that this photo would be a magic photo that could move, so that he could swing his fist and viciously smash it into the face of the Pulitzer lady opposite.
Then, his gaze caught on another sentence in the report, and he was even more angry: "Also, she asked the damn 'forbidden experiment', the only reason I'm silent is that I really don't know that there is such a thing!What is 'abnormal silence'?! She knows a ghost again!!Can't I keep my mouth shut about things I don't know?!"
"Take a deep breath, take a deep breath, and don't get excited. The fat man patted Zheng Qing's back with relief, took out a small plate of candy at the right time, and stuffed it under Zheng Qing's nose: "A piece of mint candy, smooth and smooth." ”
Whether the mint candy has a smooth effect, Zheng Qing is not clear. It's like he doesn't know why some wizards warm up when they eat a piece of chocolate when they are damaged by magic.
But this did not prevent him from accepting the fat man's kindness. Regardless, candy can bring pleasant feelings.
The young student picked up a piece of green candy from the plate, threw it into his mouth, and shivered viciously.
The cool mint breath burst along the tip of his tongue, poured into his nose, and slid into his lungs, as if he had been soaked in ice water, and his spirit was instantly refreshed.
At this moment, an indignant familiar voice suddenly sounded next to him, which startled Zheng Qing: "It's useless to shut up, she will make up a scene in her brain and write it in...... Just like in the report, I didn't cry in despair in front of her!"
Turning around, Nicholas, who was usually sitting in another corner of the classroom, came to the side of several male witches at some point, and was looking at the report in Zheng Qing's hand with an annoyed expression.
Noticing the surprised eyes of several male wizards, Nicholas snorted: "I saw this report a few minutes earlier than you, and I think Zheng Qing should have ideas after reading it, so I came over and asked...... Do you think we're going to beat her up? ”
"Hmm...... In the entire Nine Colleges, you are the only one who has repeated a grade for two years. Zhang Jixin pinched his chin, read the report carefully, and thoughtfully: "People who have a little channel for this kind of thing know it...... Ms. Pulitzer was also distracted. What is the difference between this kind of 'reluctance to give names' and posting people's names in big characters?"
"And I don't remember you having a family. Fat Xin followed suit and added.
Nicholas stared at Zheng Qing with a gloomy face, repeating what he had just proposed: "So...... Do you want to beat her up? ”
After knocking on a mint candy, Zheng Qing's heart smoothed down a little, and with Nicholas, a difficult brother, the depression in his heart dissipated a little unconsciously, and rational thinking reoccupied the high ground.
"Let's not mention if we can defeat a registered wizard...... Even if we succeed in our plot, in case we are caught by the school, are you ready to go to Danhag for a while?" Zheng Qing first asked Nicholas a difficult question to answer, and then said to himself, "No, no. You still have a sister to take care of, and you have to finish this university in peace. ”
Nicholas's face became more and more ugly, his brown eyes were originally habitually tremor, and at this moment, under the anger, the tremor became more and more severe, which made people feel the excitement in his heart very clearly.
"Calm down, calm down, gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late. Zheng Qing grabbed Nicholas's arm and comforted: "Just like me, I usually have a lot of time for people to chew their tongues behind their backs, do I have to take everyone out and beat them......?
This concentration was gradually accumulated by Zheng Qing after going through several hardships last semester, whether it was the turmoil after winning the championship in the school hunting meeting, or the hustle and bustle after winning the Great Arcana 'World', he was used to these gossips.
As he just said, the psychology is strong, and the rumors outside are like flies lingering in his ears. Just shoot two to death with a cold pump. There are so many flies, and you can't finish it.
After comforting Nicholas, Zheng Qing picked up the report again, and was in the mood to comment on other paragraphs of the article.
"Tsk, 'stereotypical education methods, dangerous teaching content, harsh examination systems', and 'repressive nature and freedom' and 'training young wizards who disregard life'...... How dare this Ms. Pulitzer write that?!"
Zheng Qing sketched on the newspaper with a quill pen, circled all those scary words, and then pointed and asked Xin Fatzi:
"Isn't she afraid that Jiuyou Academy will trouble her? Isn't she afraid that Lao Yao will smash the Beta Town Post? This is not quite in line with the principle of 'harmony and stability' reporting that you said before. ”
The fat man shrugged his shoulders laboriously, his face full of helplessness: "The Beta Town Post is not a school magazine, and Ms. Pulitzer is not a little-known reporter like me, she has the freedom to write this kind of report...... Besides, she was standing in Beta Town, with her back to Alpha Castle, even if Jiuyou Academy had a temper, what could she do? Jiuyou would not really go to Alpha for such a trivial matter. ”
When Zheng Qing heard this, he contacted the current situation of the school, and suddenly appeared:
"Oh, you're saying that Alpha College instructed Ms. Pulitzer to publish this article?"
"It's not necessarily," Xiao Xiao, who had been quietly analyzing the content of the report, suddenly opened his mouth and said softly: "But it's very possible to figure out the intention...... Just like the lecture on 'The Death of Bloodlines' in the small square in front of the university library the other day, it is of the same nature as this Pulitzer woman's article. There is no way that the professor or the student council of the Nine Colleges will instruct the wizard to give that speech in front of the library. ”
"The position of public opinion, Jiuyou wants to occupy, and Alpha also wants to occupy. It's up to who is better and can win the hearts of more young wizards. ”
"If last week's 'Death of the Bloodline' was a punch given to Alpha by the public opinion of Jiuyou Academy, then today's newspaper is Alpha's reversal of Alpha's mouth...... On both sides, no one took much advantage. ”
