The Infinite Journey of Cruelty

After a hurried lunch, George fled under the strange gazes of his colleagues.

Only when he returned to the independent office from the cafeteria where people came and went, did he feel at ease.

Only when he is alone does George feel that the world is real and that he feels relaxed.

He didn't know the reason for this, but he instinctively hated communicating with outsiders, even with his students, just to cope with the monthly teaching inspection.

Sitting on the soft wooden chair, George took out the little book that Bauer had given him, and decided to burn it to see what book it needed to finish.

Could it be a forbidden book that defames the empire? Or really...

His breathing became rapid, and he couldn't wait to turn the first page.

There was no name on the cover of the little book, but on the first page, he saw a line of words lined up vertically: "The truth of the world"!

The title made George frown slightly, and after rolling his eyes lightly, he turned to the next page.

‘Do you have a feeling that you are living under an invisible and intangible shackle, like a domestic animal in captivity? ’

'What's the point of an empire? ’

‘Why do you work your whole life and you can’t get the life you dream of? ’

‘Is there some kind of close connection between people? ’

'Who... controls your life? ’

The second page is also quite short, with only five questions, but these five questions made George sit up straight, and his mind that was about to be stirred slowly calmed down.

"What book is this?" George looked at the book cover again, but couldn't find the publisher's logo anywhere.

Turn to the third page and see the title at the top and the text below.

'The invisible enemy'

George looked at the content of the text, and the more he looked at it, the more he frowned, and the expression on his face kept changing with his study and thinking.

Until the giant pendulum on the Black Rock Tower rang, reminding the students of the academy that it was time to study, and also reminding the teachers that they should go to class for the students.

Taking off the gold wire glasses on his face, George rubbed his sour eyes, still with a shocked expression on his face.

But now he has to go and teach students the knowledge of words.

He carefully tucked the small book into the lining of his suit, George walked out of the office with the textbook, and came to his professor's class in aftertaste.

All the students in his class are poor students, and there is an inner courtyard inside the Obsidian Academy, where the children of rich businessmen are taught.

"...well, turn to the part we talked about this morning."

George came to the classroom and went straight to the subject without any opening ceremony. They have not yet developed the good habit of respecting teachers and teachings. Although these students have respect for teachers, they just get along very normally. They treat him as a teacher. Workers look the same.

In fact, there is not much difference between the teachers and workers in the outer courtyard of Obsidian Academy, and the working hours are not short every day. The only good thing is that the school can cover room and board.

More than 60 students opened the textbook according to the words and began to listen carefully, taking notes from time to time.

Although they are only children, they also understand the importance of knowledge. Each teacher has only one recommendation quota per school year. Only the children who have obtained the quota can enter the special class in the inner courtyard and learn the knowledge that will enable them to get a good job. , when you grow up, you can eat enough.

But they found out today that Mr. George seemed to be distracted frequently in this class, and was reminded several times by several academic masters.

An hour passed, and the pendulum clock rang again, which made George finally relieved, often distracted.

"get out of class is over, go to rest, don't be late later." George finished speaking to a group of eager students below the podium, and immediately announced the end of the get out of class, and couldn't wait to sit down on the chair on the podium, took out the little book.

A series of novel knowledge in the book opened his eyes and made him understand many problems that he could not understand before.

After reading the first content "The Invisible Enemy", George felt that the shackles of his soul were opened by a key, and when he looked at the world again, he already had a sense of sudden enlightenment that jumped out of the chessboard!

He temporarily put down the small book and stared blankly at the students who were still studying hard in the audience. After scanning it a few times, he stared at a person and shouted, "Doug..."

George's voice echoed in the classroom, attracting the attention of all the students who wanted a place.

A thin and weak boy stood up and responded excitedly, "Yes! Mr. George, are you looking for me?"

Looking at this excited student, George just opened his mouth, then closed it again, waved his hand and said, "Uh, it's alright, I'll talk about it later in class."

When the student named Doug heard this, he sat down in disappointment.

George also turned to the next content of the little book, Man and the Beast.

The more he looked, the more he felt that the author of this book was very knowledgeable, and this was the real knowledge!

This is the knowledge he seeks!

An hour later, the pendulum clock rang again, and the students returned to the classroom one after another.

After everyone was seated, George wrote a question on the blackboard: "What do you study for?"

After writing, he turned to his students expectantly, and ordered a few people to stand up to answer the question, hoping that they could give some insights similar to those in the small book.

But what disappointed him happened. These students proudly answered one after another that was reasonable but not surprising enough.

"I want to make money for my family!"

"I'm going to be an executive of Felix Alchemy Company!"

"I...I want to buy a big house."

...

George was not reconciled and began to call one by one, hoping that a "good student" would appear in his class.

The students who were named and answered felt like they were sitting on pins and needles~www.wuxiaspot.com~ They began to think about their answers, trying to make Mr. George, whose face turned sour, return to his original expressionless appearance, but unfortunately, when everyone finished answering, Teacher George's expression was still the same.

Looking at the students below who seemed to have done something wrong, George was a little disappointed, leaned back in the chair tiredly, and said, "Forget it, let's study by yourself..."

One by one, the students were downcast, feeling as if they had just said something wrong.

The disappointment only lasted for a moment, and George realized that what the little book said was true, they were actually living in an invisible shackle, and the empire... controlled everyone!

He did not teach students in several classes in the afternoon, but looked at the small book and wrote down his own opinions and thoughts on the content of the small book in an empty notebook.

When the love is deep, there will be anger and sadness on his face. The proud teacher status is just an appendage added to him by capital. In fact, he is no different from those workers.

With great sadness, George turned to the third volume of the little book, titled: 'We'!
