After reading this report, Zheng Qing’s first reaction was to ‘make something happen’.
The whole article has a strange smell from top to bottom - it doesn't seem to mention any names that Jusi and Kolma have done something shameful, but the weird words, such as 'conspiracy', such as
"Historical experience tells us", such as "public anxiety", etc., and what is expressed implicitly in the words.
This is under the premise that Zheng Qing knows both Zhu Si and Kolma.
If someone who doesn’t know the two witches reads this report, they will inevitably associate them with the evil wizards who caused a bloody storm in the history of witches, and will have a very bad impression of them.
Especially the photo accompanying the report. Against the background of late night, without a trace of moonlight, Zhu Si, wearing a black robe, hurriedly left from the deep door - there was an ulterior aura from head to toe -
—Coupled with the line of small text used as a comment, it feels even worse.
To be fair, everyone has the experience of going out to visit friends at night, and that photo can't prove anything at all.
The bad thing is that the "Northern District Wizard" and the "Rat Man" are really big troubles for the alliance, and Zhu Si is indeed the daughter of the Rat Immortal.
So her 'visiting friends' this time happened to hit the pain point of some sensitive wizards.
What is even more incomprehensible to the young public-funded students is how could the Beta Town Post be so bold as to stroke the tiger's beard and brush off the legendary wizard - even though the content of the article is considered "fair", there is no reference to the existence of the legend.
There was no innuendo or connotation in criticizing the mulberry tree, but this kind of teasing method still made the wizard greatly admired.
"Look!"
Zheng Qing flicked the thick and bulging newspaper with his fingers and exclaimed: "Look at this sentence, 'the above conclusion is just a standard inference made by fortune tellers and astrologers based on existing information'... No wonder "Beta Town Post"
"The Daily News can become the most influential newspaper in the league, and this kind of 'tough energy' alone can beat any other newspaper."
"You can't say that."
The fat wizard who worked for the school newspaper immediately shouted with dissatisfaction, waving his greasy paws around: "Some newspapers like to sensationalize, but some newspapers are very serious... Every word in the report has been carefully scrutinized and verified by facts. It is absolutely true."
Without any conjecture or subjective speculation.”
Zheng Qing snorted noncommittally.
He is not that convinced by anything with the word 'absolute'. Of course, it is difficult for the parties concerned to have a fair and objective view on such a topic involving 'professional dignity'.
Zheng Qing did not intend to seriously argue with Xin on this topic.
"Actually, I'm more concerned about another point," the young public-funded student naturally broke away from the whirlpool of the debate and changed the question: "Why did the Post publish this article?"
"What do you mean?" Fatty Xin had just taken out a rice stick and was about to put it into his mouth. Hearing this, he tilted his head in interest.
Zheng Qing patiently explained: "Isn't the Post always at odds with Lao Yao?... Well, I mean, isn't there Alpha Fort behind the Post? Now the owner of Alpha Fort, Professor Emma, is known as a 'quasi-legend'
As the vice-principal of the school, I need to unite all the forces that can be united... Why are you teasing the Mouse Immortal at this juncture? In any case, the Mouse Immortal is also a legend... He should be a friend, not an enemy."
This time it was not Xin who answered him, but Xiao Xiao who had been silent next to him.
"Do you think an article of this magnitude will cause a profound change in Legend's stance?" Dr. Xiao Da adjusted his glasses: "...or, do you think that just a few words of the newspaper article are worth it?
Will the legend take action?"
Gu Zhu
"It's difficult." Zheng Qing gave his own judgment honestly: "To do it just for a few lines of words... That legendary boss is too cheap."
"bingo."
The doctor snapped his fingers: "Just like an ant ran to your feet and peed. Would you feel that the ant was disgracing you and would you look at it more?... To put it another way, if you have just become the vice principal of the school,
Professor Emma, you know that there is a legend in the process of transformation near the school, but you can't find him... What will you do?"
"Widely advertising."
Zheng Qing raised his eyebrows, and a hint of realization emerged in his heart: "You mean, Alpha is sending messages to the Rat Immortal through a third party?"
"This is just one of the angles of understanding." Xiao Xiao bit his brush holder, neither denying nor affirming: "It is also a more reasonable angle... But there are other possibilities... such as Beta Town Post
It is indeed out of a 'public heart' that the alliance between Jusi and Kolma poses a certain degree of threat to the orthodox wizarding community, and then upholds the professional ethics of media people, defies the pressure of legends, and speaks out for justice..."
"Ms. Pulitzer is by no means the kind of character who sacrifices herself for the public good." Zheng Qing recalled the bad experience she had during an interview, and firmly denied the other possibility of being a doctor.
"Or both."
Fatty Xin called out a ball of water, and while washing the oil stains on his hands, he licked his lips after thinking, and added: "Things in reality are not magical stories or legendary novels. There is nothing either/or, black or
Bai's simple logic...anything that happens has a complex and interconnected background..."
"The teacher is here! The teacher is here!"
The little stick figure behind the door interrupted the small discussion meeting in the corner of the classroom and shouted at the top of his lungs: "...Sima Xiaoniangpi, who teaches history, has arrived at the corner of the corridor and is about to enter the classroom!"
The originally noisy atmosphere suddenly became much quieter. The messy footsteps, the collision of tables and chairs, mixed with the clattering sound of books being turned, played a harmonious movement together.
Dr. Xiao Da narrowed his eyes and stared fiercely at the little stick figure.
"What's the point of staring at it? Your gaze is not like a wasp's tail that can sting it to death." Fatty Xin mocked and turned back to his seat with a smile.
"You can put some murloc turds on that piece of paper...or add a few strokes of cold wind on its head like last winter." Zheng Qing also enthusiastically gave his own suggestion: "It's going to be winter soon.
When it arrives, draw two gusts of cold wind and blow it on its forehead every day. It feels good to have it!"
The short wizard glanced at him in surprise.
"This seems like something you can do." He commented.
Zheng Qing was displeased: "Perhaps you have better suggestions?"
"How about drawing a female ogre in estrus on that piece of paper?" Dr. Xiao Da adjusted his glasses and thought: "There is still a little bit of the ogre tribe that was wiped out in the last trial.
The ogre essence and blood is enough to mix the ink... Then stick a brush with ogre hair and use it temporarily for painting. It should last for a few months..."
Zheng Qing looked at the solemn and earnest fortune teller in front of him and shuddered silently. He raised his head and glanced pityingly at the lively little stick figure on the drawing paper behind the door, and observed three seconds of silence for it in advance.
