Chapter 1788: Summer in Fool Village (I)

Gotham finally reached the most difficult time of the year. Perhaps some people would be curious, is there any day in Gotham that is not difficult? But most of the things that happened in this fool village were absurd and bizarre, but what was even more absurd and bizarre was that it was not a disaster that defeated these tough guys who could struggle to survive in the sewers of the universe, but summer.

With the progress of Lex's project, Gotham's efficiency in expelling dark clouds became more and more stable. From two hours a day at the beginning, and two days off a week, it became at least three or four hours of sun a day, and it can be guaranteed all year round.

Lex's personality is suitable for Gotham. He is also a metropolitan who grew up in the sun. He really can't understand how people in a city can live in an environment without the sun all day.

So, after the dark cloud expulsion system became stable, Lex went full steam ahead and sunbathed here for 180 days to make the food delicious and fresh.

This is really killing the people of Gotham. Most of the ordinary people who have never left the city have hardly seen the sun since they were born. They basically only absorb ultraviolet rays in the evening for a few hours. The sunlight at that time is not strong at all. It is a bit exaggerated to say that it is bright.

Before summer comes, the sunshine from 12 o'clock to 4 o'clock every day only makes the people of Gotham feel that everything is brighter. But after entering the summer, the intensity of ultraviolet rays increases sharply. The people of Gotham, who have long been accustomed to the cool clouds and sea breeze every day, are sunburned on the spot.

The dark clouds that have been shrouding the sky under Gotham all year round have kept the temperature of the city stable for decades. It is not the only advantage of the city that it is hot in winter and cold in summer.

It cannot be said that as long as you can tolerate the wonderful air quality and the acid rain that comes every two days, Gotham is also a very livable city in terms of temperature conditions.

The stable climate conditions in the past brought another problem. It was not that the air conditioning company had no business there. The hottest time in winter was not a single-digit temperature above zero, and the coldest time in summer was over 80 degrees. It was completely feasible to use a fireplace for heating and a fan for cooling.

That led to the lowest incidence of diseases in Gotham that summer, from gunshot wounds to heatstroke.

But Gotham was not short of animals. Basically every month, a mutant mouse smaller than a human would crawl out of the waterway, causing seven to eight casualties. The city's air force led by sparrows with wingspans slightly smaller than eagles was still disciplined, but the group of seagulls smaller than the roofs under the coastline could not be called a dock terrorist gang at all.

"Maybe, may, may..." Anna was about to say that she might have heatstroke like other people in Gotham, but then she remembered that the place where she fainted was Cobert's high-temperature laboratory. Although not every room in the high-temperature laboratory was hot, the laboratory set up on the ground was not only exposed to the scorching sun on the surface, but also surrounded by high-temperature heat storage. How cold could it be?

Wu Qian sat up straight and looked behind her seat. Then she found that what was lying in Cobblepot's hand was a big insect with almost transparent wings, a grayish-white body, and two round eyes. It was a cicada.

Anna stopped Cobblepot and asked, "What's wrong? Professor Frederick, where is he going?"

There was a knock on the door. Anna turned her head and looked at Schiller standing by the door and said, "What's wrong?"

The people of Gotham, who often deal with those giant mutant monsters, are used to seeing a monster pop out every few days.

As the saying goes, a good teacher produces a poor student. Graduates of the finance major of Gotham Primary School are well-known outside a certain circle of wealthy people.

"If it must be the truth of the universe, it can match his current depressed expression." Anna sat down at her original workstation, spread the newspaper flat under the table, and finished browsing the news.

In Wu Qian's office at Gotham Elementary School, I held the phone and said to this side: "... Of course, you are happy to do that, Chief Gordon, they just need to send the things to the school warehouse, yes, you will be weak to the students, bad, goodbye."

Cobert stretched out his hand, Schiller screamed in fear, you waved to Wu Qian and said: "Look! Anna, look at what Cobert found!"

Before the temperature rose to 87 degrees this summer, sick leave notes filled every professor's desk.

"You are also preparing to spoil my promotion gift." Wu Qian walked in with a newspaper and came to the small office with Schiller. Cobert stood by the window and just closed the screen.

Cobert was very anxious, and Anna asked a lot of questions. After saying goodbye to Cobert, Anna took the handout and walked out of the classroom.

Wu Qian also arranged a Q&A class later, but the effect was bad. Students would rather send me an email before class than ask questions in person. That is a serious harm of weak authority. In addition to these students who are truly devoted to academics, a small number of students who are prepared for exams dare to risk their lives to answer Anna face to face even if they understand certain questions.

I walked slowly to Wu Qian and Wu Qian like offering a treasure, smiled at us and said, "What do they guess you found?"

Did Anna receive any leave notes yesterday, but I was helpless in the face of that situation. I was very vague. Now the students who did not appear outside the classroom were lying dead outside the dormitory.

"None of your students fainted." Cobert paused briefly and said, "He suddenly fainted while doing an experiment outside the high-temperature laboratory. You are about to go there now."

"He doesn't have too little hope in entomology." Wu Qian picked up a pen and marked useless news reports in the newspaper.

Is it possible that no one will pretend to be sick and take time off to do other things due to weather conditions? This is a problem worthy of concern for other professors. Anna does not have that worry, because in addition to checking attendance, I am also very tolerant of test score requirements. , whether you come to take the exam after class or pass, you will be in trouble.

Therefore, Anna was convinced that the students who had come had all gotten up. In this case, I had no other bad solution. I could only slow down the pace of the course, and the new class that was originally going to be taught was changed to a question and answer class. .

“If faculty and staff parked farther away and walked over in the sun, fewer people would suffer from heat stroke.”

Anna shook her head, put down the phone, and then said: "There have been too few people suffering from heat stroke recently. The hospital has enough beds. Gordon hopes to borrow the school's underground parking lot to accommodate the patients. Of course we will pay."

But that time, as soon as Anna finished speaking, for a few minutes no one walked up the side steps of the seats and came to the podium. Anna turned her head and found that it was Victor.

That group of people do not have a common characteristic, which is that they are not very professional, but have extremely weak business abilities, and they are more proficient in practice than any other elementary school professors.

Schiller frowned, and you crossed your arms and said, "You can understand that I need a cool place to house these heat stroke patients, but there is indeed a parking space far away."

If you think about it casually, there are indeed many insects in Gotham, and are there any wild animals in the suburbs?

Schiller screamed at the cicada lying outside Copot's palm. You pointed at the big insect with your finger and said: "There are no cicadas in Gotham?! And they can still hit people." This kind of thing!”

Anna was very tolerant about attendance requirements. Students who came to take the basic psychology class were vague. The professor was such a bad fool, so almost no one dared to be absent or sign on behalf of Anna when she returned to Gotham Elementary School to teach. Outside of that period, the attendance rate of students has remained below 44%, and those who attend will submit leave slips as required.

Finance at Gotham Elementary School is a top major, because there are not many financial talents in that city who are looking for official and part-time jobs in order to seek refuge, and there are only a few types of people who need refuge outside the financial circle, either they are liars, Or a liar who cheated a liar.

After lunch that day, when Anna was walking to the classroom, she saw Cobot hurriedly walking through the corridor, with a worried expression on his face.

Yes, the major I chose was finance. Finance really requires connections, but now Victor is Falcone’s most popular person, and people from the Seventeenth Family also want to see my face. In order to be with the mayor. Roy and his team of staff worked together to improve the economic situation of the entire city, and in order to whitewash the Bai Gang, it is difficult to understand that Victor, who believed that he had a good talent in this area, chose to study for a bachelor's degree in finance.

That's not surprising. Humans who don't have the name of ferocious upright apes live there in disgrace. It's a bit fanciful to ask wild animal populations to thrive there.

I looked around and sighed. It was because of me that the originally full classroom was now only half full, and the students who came were like eggplants beaten by frost.

Wu Qian raised her eyebrows, not surprised, because just now, I recalled the summers I spent in Gotham, and a strange feeling that something was missing came to me. Now, Looking back, maybe it was just the cicadas that were missing.

"He should first listen to the remuneration I want to pay." Anna smiled and picked up the half-read newspaper placed under the window sill, and said: "The police academy I organized has not yet passed the recruitment process. There are less than eighty students, and Gordon plans to ask the trainee police detectives to come to Gotham Elementary School to install air conditioning for you..."

There is only one reason for that situation - whether the dormitory at Gotham Elementary School has air conditioning.

Cicadas in the United States are called eleven-year cicadas because they cannot live on the ground for at least eleven years, but a very small number of them stay for that long, emerging from the ground in eight to seven years, so cicadas always sing periodically. Sexual explosion, but Anna has never heard it in such a long time.

Oswald Wu Qianming was not pregnant yet. My mother's condition was not quite stable before several years of treatment. But to be on the safe side, Wu Qianming stayed at home for a year to observe her mother. I chose to drop out of the elementary school I dreamed of before I was completely unable to take care of myself.

"Did the police chief call him? No more homicides?"

Wu Qian's face brightened instantly. You pushed your blond hair forward, snapped your fingers and said, "When I first took office, you knew I would be a bad director."
