Chapter 770: Schiller the Match Seller (Part 2)

Gotham University Vocational and Technical College has not been open for a few days, and there are several special recruits who have delayed registration, which has caused widespread discussion among students.

As for Jason and Little Slippery, they can understand it. After all, they are all from Gotham, and it is not surprising that there are a few geniuses.

Moreover, the gang leaders know Little Slippery's technical level, and there are also some who are in urgent need of people, and they pay a high price to hire him to help. Many students in the college have met him once. Although they are young, they can get along well.

But Mirror Master and Captain Cold seem a bit out of place.

Not to mention that they are all outsiders, and they are from the Central City with good security. Their personalities are also very different from those of Gotham people.

Not to mention anything else, as a well-known villain, neither of them kills people, let alone involving human lives. They don't even kill cats, dogs, or even fish. When Schiller learned that they were not even willing to kill fish themselves, he felt that based on the halo on his head, he really should give them the title of angels on earth.

It's not just killing, there are also extra high moral standards. First of all, it's not okay to urinate and defecate anywhere. Secondly, you must pay attention to personal hygiene. You must not fall asleep immediately after being tired and sweaty. You must stand up straight, sit upright, control your diet, keep fit, study hard, and make progress every day.

Especially the older Captain Cold, his life experience is relatively rough. Captain Cold's father is a complete villain who often beats him. Captain Cold, who can't stand the abuse, can only run away from home. He also has a pair of younger brothers and sisters, who also live in such a family environment.

His experience is somewhat similar to Bruce Banner's growth in the Marvel world. After growing up in a violent environment, he faced many problems and resorted to violence. However, in prison, he worked hard and made remarkable achievements in cryogenics with his amazing talent and willpower.

As Victor said, there are not many people studying low-temperature physics, and even fewer talented people. After Captain Cold entered the Vocational and Technical College, Victor went there more frequently. Obviously, he was very optimistic about Captain Cold and thought he could become his soulmate in the industry.

With such a monitor-like figure, the class discipline has improved a lot. Captain Cold is very disgusted with people making loud noises in class, and even if they are communicating in a low voice, they must control the frequency.

Needless to say, personal hygiene issues, Captain Cold himself took on the responsibility of the class leader, including checking dormitory hygiene issues, organizing grade activities, course schedule notifications and campus broadcasts.

At the same time, students of different ages communicate with each other, which can broaden their horizons, increase knowledge, and improve empathy.

In this way, everything in the Vocational and Technical College is basically on the right track, but there are two people who are more uncomfortable at this time. The first one is Bruce.

Bruce, who is under great academic pressure, is forced by Schiller to stay in school every day to study.

During this period, Schiller had to stay in school because he had too many things to do. This made many people suffer. First, students of vocational colleges could not slack off because Professor Schiller was watching them.

Second, Bruce had to respond to the papers he submitted every day within half an hour. He would correct small problems himself and discuss big problems in the office. Although Schiller only talked about academic issues, the correction of various details alone made Bruce feel overwhelmed.

Many people who have written papers know that this is not an IQ problem, but more often a test of patience. These things do not have any difficult problems to understand, but they are very time-consuming, especially logical reasoning, word choice, punctuation, etc.

If there are some subjects that can indeed rely on IQ instead of time, psychology is definitely not included.

In addition to theory, it is also necessary to analyze in combination with actual cases. If there are no actual cases, we must pay attention to typical cases. At this time, the various symptoms alone will wear out most of the patience.

Sometimes, Bruce felt that all this might be metaphysics, but Schiller always firmly told him that there must be a realistic law in it.

The writing of the paper is divided into several stages, and now the two of them are in the stage of wearing out each other's patience and testing the bottom line.

The paper may not be passed until both sides' patience is completely worn out, but unfortunately, Schiller is always extra patient in this regard.

Bruce believes that the professor is a righteous person, but only in terms of academics, his requirements for academic rigor are nitpicking, and because of Bruce's high talent, Schiller has extra high requirements.

Some people may think that Schiller is torturing Bruce, but in fact, the two of them are torturing each other, just to see who has stronger endurance, which is also the current situation of most college students, graduate students and tutors.

The second unhappy person is Savage in the mouth of the mirror master.

Speaking of this name, many DC fans may feel unfamiliar, but if you mention the immortal or the barbarian, many people should feel familiar?

Vandal Savage, a Neanderthal born 50,000 years ago, underwent a change in appearance due to the radiation of a meteorite, making him closer to modern Homo sapiens.

At the same time, the radiation of the meteorite gave him the ability to live forever and improved his wisdom and physical fitness.

In the long history, he has many different identities, such as Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Jack the Ripper, etc. He also joined the NAZI Party and held a high position.

As a well-known villain, he also has a very big ideal, that is, to become the master of mankind. He believes that he has a long life and deserves a higher status, preferably higher than all mankind.

In his long life, he has accumulated countless wealth and collections, but the only problem is that these things are difficult to transform into usable power.

Having wealth does not mean that you can use it perfectly. First of all, you need to have a large enough size to have an impact on human society.

However, Savage is not a completely modern person. He does not have enough understanding of modern society and the power of capital. Therefore, his method of ruling mankind is still very traditional, that is, to hire a bunch of people at a high price to cause destruction in various cities and spread his reputation.

He hired a lot of ordinary people, such as Madame Goethe and Leon, and the way he bribed them was to give them some collections and cash.

At the same time, he also hired some people with special abilities, such as Mirror Master and Captain Ice, and the way to bribe them, in addition to wealth, was also to promise them power.

Like many villains outside Gotham, he is power-oriented and his goal is to rule all mankind. Basically, he does not have any special ideas, nor is he very crazy. Although the setting is very strong, there is no high performance.

His only highlight was in the comics, when he sent Mirror Master to the Batcave to steal Batman's plan to deal with the Justice League. Mirror Master's ability is very special, so he hit it in one shot. Savage used these plans to successfully defeat the Justice League, but in the end, he was defeated by Batman, but this led to Batman's withdrawal from the Justice League.

In a certain universe, he successfully destroyed the Justice League and became the only human on Earth, but he felt boundless loneliness. Therefore, he asked Superman who traveled there to go back to the past and save the world. At that time, Savage realized that power that has developed to the extreme is not power, but loneliness.

Now, Savage feels very uncomfortable because, since he came to Gotham, he has lost as much as he invested, and lost as much as he invested.

Leon himself is his more trusted subordinate, because he knows many celebrities on the West Coast and has developed many subordinates like Mrs. Goth for Savage, but he lost contact within a few days of entering Gotham.

Some contraband heavy weapons produced by the Goth family that Savage invested in have also disappeared, and the entire Goth family shipyard has been bombed.

He spent a lot of effort to win over the Mirror Master, but he disappeared after only a few visits, and he has been disconnected since the last phone call.

And Captain Cold, who he relied on most in Central City, also disappeared completely after just one visit.

This dark city is like a giant beast lurking in the abyss. Anyone who jumps off the cliff will never think that he will be buried here forever.

Yes, Savage thought that all the people he sent in were dead. He never thought that these people might betray him because he felt that he had given enough.

Just as Savage was thinking about the next countermeasure, in Schiller's office, Master Mirror and Captain Cold looked at each other. Captain Cold coughed and said, "You mean, you want us to call Savage and ask him to send someone to rescue us?"

"That's the plan, but it's not the case. I want to ask you a question. Just answer it truthfully." Schiller looked at the two of them and said, and they both nodded.

"What do you think of this place?"

Both of them were silent for a while, and Captain Cold spoke first: "In fact, I have always longed for school, so my evaluation may not be objective enough."

"If you ask me, this city is terrible, with bad weather, poor public security, and violent citizens, but I like this school very much."

"Yes, the students here are so bold, crazy and violent, but it is undeniable that they are the most energetic people I have ever seen, as if they will never get tired, and they are also extra talented in learning, always have new and creative ideas, and when I am with them, I feel like I have become younger."

Mirror Master was silent for a long time, he sighed and said: "I also think this place is terrible, but I have to admit that the teachers here are very capable and the requirements are very strict, at least much better than the professors in the university where I studied."

"I don't know if there are friends with similar experiences in your hometown. If so, you can take this opportunity to let them come here to study." Schiller tapped the table with the tip of his pen and said: "I believe it. You can see that we are very short of excellent students here."

"As a teacher, I know deeply that family education and social education will play a big role in a person's growth process. Many people go astray, not because they are born bad, but because they lack education."

"This society is unwilling to give these people a second chance, or in other words, the long-standing concept makes them feel that they have no second chance, but this is not the case."

Schiller turned his head to look out the window. The dusk of Gotham was still so brilliant. He said: "Yes, this is a sinful city, but only here, those who were once thought to have no chance have another chance to return to ordinary life, because , everyone here is a criminal. "

"Some people call this a garbage dump. Many people say that garbage is a resource that is placed in the wrong place. The real meaning of this sentence is that too many people narrowly call things they don't need garbage."

Mirror Master and Captain Cold saw that Schiller was sitting in front of the window sill, against the light, and became a silhouette under the sunset. His low voice echoed in the room:

"Perhaps, Gotham will never have light, but it doesn't matter. If this place is destined to be the darkest shadow in the world, it will also condense into a rising black sun..."

"It doesn't need light, but it can also illuminate everything."
