Chapter 124 Ignorance is Bliss
“Keys. Keys are uniformly allocated by the college. Only after the natural theory exam is over, the review committee is qualified to take over and issue it to students who pass the exam.”
Listening to Fu Hang's answer, Li Wei frowned slightly and then asked.
“Where are the keys produced?”
“I don’t know.”
"Has there ever been a shortage of keys?"
"Never."
"After reporting the number of keys required, how long does it usually take for those keys to be transferred to In your hands?”
“If it’s a long time, you can declare it in the morning, and if it’s a short time, it will be delivered at noon.”
“It seems that there are a lot of keys stored in the college. Ah.”
His sentence was not a question, so Fu Hang did not give a corresponding answer.
Levi stared at the old glass with hollow eyes, thinking in his mind that after gaining mind control, he could actually change his style of play slightly.
So, he hung the brass pocket watch in front of Fu Hang's eyes again. The hands on the watch were turning, and his voice also had a certain rhythm.
“Let’s agree on a secret code together, Fu Hang. As long as I say: ‘Teacher Fu, I bought a watch last year,’ you will know everything about me and be obedient to me. From then on, when I say 'old glass', you will become normal again."
"And when you wake up later, you will forget that you found this pocket watch in the college library. Well, all you had before was an ordinary pocket watch, but you lost it recently. The injury on your body was an accident in the experiment. You tried to improve your control over the human brain, but you temporarily lost control of your body. , only to get hurt.”
"You have lost interest in me, but always remember that before the college issues a new key, you have to call me to the office and tell me the news."
"Okay, Old Glass , the nightmare should end here, you should wake up."
When Li Wei's voice fell and he put away the brass pocket watch for 5 seconds, Fu Hang's empty gray eyes appeared. His eyes gradually began to regain their previous expression.
He was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to react and stood up with a gloomy and ugly face.
"You have nothing to do here. Go back and tell the students in your class that I am sick today and the biology class in the afternoon is cancelled!"
"Teacher Fu, I bought a watch last year." Li Wei said that he had made a secret code and tested it.
After hearing Li Wei's words, Fu Hang's eyes suddenly lost focus again and became exactly the same as before.
Li Wei, who was quite satisfied with the effect, waved his hand with his back to him while turning around to leave the office.
"Then I'm leaving, Old Glass."
Three or four seconds later when Li Wei had walked out of the office, Fu Hang came back to his senses and grinned in pain. He touched the wound on his forehead.
"Damn, I'm so embarrassed this time in front of a special admissions student! I can't try it on my own next time. It's better to just call in some consumables than to use myself. That means I lost my watch. I'm really not used to it. .You have to find time to buy a new one.”
After taking control of Fu Hang, Li Wei wanted to use him as a breakthrough to track down the location where the keys to the academy were stored.
As for Zhu Long, he has also identified several candidates who meet Li Wei's requirements.
Two days after Li Wei left Fuhang's office, he went to an ordinary restaurant located in the south area of the college. Because of the cheap price, average environment, and low-end ingredients, the people who came here to eat were basically special admissions students.
“Brother Long said, do you want to get to know us?”
Sitting opposite Levi were a man and a woman, both of whom had somewhat reserved expressions and were dressed simply.
As soon as the girl sat down, she took the initiative to wipe the greasy tabletop again with a handkerchief, and then poured hot water on Li Wei and the two of them.
The boy who asked this question was the boy. His name was Jiang Qi. He was a special admissions student majoring in geography. His grades were always among the best in his class.
The girl’s name is Hong Lili, she majors in biology and her grades are always among the best. Zhu Long did not come. His identity was too sensitive. He had just been released from the Confinement Management Department not long ago. Many people were watching him. If he organized another gathering of more than three people, the disciplinary committee would probably have come to arrest them by now. One pot was served.
But obviously, although he has become notorious among regular students and some special admissions students, students who have had contact with him before and are still particularly convinced of him among students at the same level as him.
Just like the two people in front of him, they still call him "Brother Long", but Li Wei always feels that this is more like a black boss, and it is inexplicably inconsistent with Zhu Long's taciturn face. and.
"I got along well with Zhu Long, and then I learned from him some things that happened in the college before. I heard that you were originally planning to attend the meeting, but because you were called by the teacher, To assist in some experiments, that’s why I missed it?”
They chose a remote corner, surrounded by some messy debris, which could barely be regarded as a single room.
There were many people in the restaurant at this time, and all kinds of noise outside were very noisy. Levi was not worried about anyone hearing their conversation.
After hearing Li Wei's words, the boy named Jiang Qi raised his head and looked at Li Wei with a pair of eyes that felt a little numb and depressing.
“You are Brother Long’s friend. I can trust Brother Long, so I can also trust you. But you are a freshman who just came to the college, so there are some things you don’t understand yet. If you give me another choice Given the opportunity, I would rather not help the teacher with any experiments, but I would go to that rally and be expelled for resale with those people. Even if I die, it will be a worthy death."
Li Wei looked at him, He also turned to look at Hong Lili, who was silent and dressed like a country girl.
"Why? Aren't you the family's last hope to continue the bloodline? If you die like this, what will happen to the family's previous efforts?" Li Wei had actually guessed something, but he still asked this question.
Jiang Qi just said calmly.
"There are many formal students in the college who have excellent grades but average family backgrounds. There are also some who are willing to curry favor with the teachers and want to get some conveniences in the college. Why do you think these teachers don't go to these people to assist in experiments, but instead come to us?" Where are these people? "
Li Wei did not answer this question. Jiang Qi just silently grabbed one of Hong Lili's arms and rolled up the sleeve on that arm in front of him.
And on the skinny, tanned arms from years of hard work as a child, there are dense, chilling needle holes!
“We came to the college with the hope of our whole family. When we first saw this city, we thought that it was different from other places. With their culture and knowledge, they might not be so disrespectful. Let’s treat it as human beings.”
Jiang Qi’s voice is very similar to Zhu Long’s. In other words, most of the special admissions students in this college who have recognized the reality have voices like this. It is insensitive and calm. And like stagnant water, there is no fluctuation at all.
"If you have never been to the academy in your life, maybe it would be a better thing to learn these things."
Hong Lili broke free from Jiang Qi's hands and took her arm back, she silently He put his sleeves back and whispered.
“At that time, I was ignorant and had no food to eat at home. My parents said it was because they didn’t work hard enough. In the future, as long as I work hard enough in college, I can persevere and endure all the hardships. , then the days will get better and better."
"But the more we learn and see when we come here, the more painful we become. Suffering never comes from lack of effort, nor does it. It has never been about how much hardship you endure now, how much reward you will reap in the future.”
“This is the way the world is. After a person is born, whether he will endure hardship or happiness in this life is already determined by our father. Mothers don’t have that kind of knowledge and just work hard. They don’t think that it’s the world’s fault that they live like this. They only think that it’s their own problem. They don’t have enough to eat because they don’t work hard enough. We can’t make money because we don’t work hard enough, so they send us to college in the hope that everything will change.”
"But when we arrived at the academy, we found that nothing could be changed. It would be better to resist like those 37 people, be known by the academy, and then be expelled and resold."
"Then there are still people who will know. Our death, we have resisted."
The dinner table returned to silence. Levi took the glass of hot water from warm to cold, and never interrupted her story.
He originally asked Zhu Long to help him find some suitable candidates, but in fact, he didn't have such complicated thoughts.
I just want to use the fire transfer to upgrade, but those special recruits who were given the key by him and gained the ability to control the rules, if they have such ability, directly choose to go to other cities to become The new native emperors and oppressors always made Li Wei feel a little uncomfortable.
That's why he asked Zhu Long to help screen and find at least a few with decent character. As his level increased, he felt that the key was worth it.
But after meeting Hong Lili and Jiang Qi, he was finally able to understand how painful life is for some special recruits in this academy who have seen enough and mastered knowledge to broaden their horizons and understand the world. .
Many times, ignorance is a kind of happiness.
During this period of silence, all the dishes Li Wei ordered were served. He took out his chopsticks and handed them to Hong Lili and Jiang Qi.
“Let’s have something to eat first. In addition to wanting to get to know you, I also heard that your hometowns used to be in Taiyang and Zhulan respectively? Do you want to hear what’s happening in those two cities now? Did you say it? Do you have any opinions? ”
