Chapter 25 Harvest Knowledge and Wealth Today

"Dong dong dong" Tommy Hawk gently rang with his fingers the door of the office room that belonged to Mr. Ronnie Williams before.

Ottilia Farrell's voice came from inside: "Please come in."

Tommy unscrewed the door and walked into the office. The layout of the office has changed with the change of owner. The baseball team signature posters, photos, and surroundings of the baseball team that Mr. Williams liked before have disappeared, replaced by some that look extremely high-end. decorations, while the wealthy daughter of a prestigious school, Miss Ottilia Farrell is wearing a small Chanel suit at this time, holding a small watering can with LV printed on it, and is meticulously and attentively pouring water. Several pots of green plants are placed on the desk to ensure that every leaf is moistened.

"Miss Farrell, uh... the school office called my residence and said you want to see me?" Tommy Hawk stood at the door and asked tentatively.

He was reviewing his homework at home and preparing his high school graduation thesis, but the school called and asked him to come, saying that Teacher Otilia Farrell wanted to chat with him after learning about his situation.

"Student Tommy, please sit down and be more casual, just as easy as you got along with Mr. Williams before." Ottilia turned her head, responded to Tommy Hawke with a friendly smile, and said.

Tommy sat down near the door: "What's the matter, Miss Farrell?"

Otilia Farrell finished watering the green plants, and then she looked at Tommy Hawke, and said with a sincere expression: "After all this time, I have learned about Lincoln High School, first of all, I would like to sincerely apologize to you, Tommy- Hawke, I think the question I asked when we first met..."

Seeing the sinful expression on the other side, Tommy Hawk knew what this woman wanted to say, so he said decisively: "Miss Farrell, your next apology may be understandable to me, but I Not advising you to communicate the same way to other people if you don't want to get a B nickname at this high school."

This is obviously a habitual expression of pity for white people in big cities. After understanding this period of time, she clearly understood the difference between Lincoln High School and Andover Phillips High School she attended that year, and then realized what she said that day How embarrassing, and then a strong sense of guilt immediately surged in my heart.

But this Miss Farrell obviously didn't know that what she said that day didn't actually hurt anyone, because she didn't know anything at the time, and this pity-like guilt at this time would really hurt someone, or in other words, the person who was apologized, He will not pay attention to her apology and guilt, but will only be sensitive to the superiority of the guy opposite.

Of course, this is not her fault, but a common problem of the so-called upper-class British Americans. When they realize that their words have hurt people whose social class is lower than theirs, this so-called gentleman behavior will appear. It is indeed an apology, but the second injury to the person being apologized is far more serious than the first time.

In his last life, he had witnessed this situation with his American classmates in the business school. When those guys found out their mistakes, they would immediately seek forgiveness from the other party, but their tone and expression were obviously very sincere, but the other party I just don't want to forgive him, I just want to punch him in the face and call him S*nOfBi*th.

Farrell was a little surprised when Tommy Hawke interrupted his apology. After all, he was a teacher, and it was very rude for a student to interrupt him, but looking at Tommy Hawke's expression, it was obvious that he Second apology, very very bad.

"Did I do something wrong?" Farrell asked in confusion, "I just want to apologize to you for what I said that day."

Tommy Hawk glanced helplessly at his cheap watch: "Miss Farrell, you just need to remember, don't apologize for your ignorance, ignorance does not require an apology, what is needed is reflection, so, still Is there anything else? I still have a lot of questions to work on. The AP exam is coming up. If you like to communicate with students, you can find another student, such as Dennis Herbers. From what I understand, he has been asking for your connection recently. Way."

"I'm annoying? Classmate Tommy Hawk? I saw you looking at me with helpless eyes, as if talking to me seems to be a kind of torture for you." Farrell saw Tommy Hawk With Ke's helpless expression, he asked a little angrily and funny.

Although she felt that she might not be a real teacher, but a school administrator, but at least at this moment, in terms of appearance and sincere attitude towards people, she would not make a student look helpless.

"No, you are very beautiful, very attractive, the type that many boys like, probably including me, but my love for grades surpasses you now, I just want to use my precious time to study and then take the exam A decent college, get out of here."

"This is the reason why I called you. As your college admissions advisor, I learned that you are preparing your high school graduation thesis, but I found that the library of this school has not been updated for four years, and the relevant reference books are in other private schools. The high school has been iteratively updated, I mean the Lincoln high school books seem to be updated too slowly compared to the private high schools, so I want to say to you, I'm sorry for what happened last time, and Andover Phillips high school ...but...it seems that I messed up this meeting again." Otilia Farrell said at the end, breathed a little depressed, and slowly stood up: "I'm sorry, I hope Next..."

After hearing clearly why the female teacher in front of him called him, Tommy Hawk stood up from his seat, with undisguised desire in his eyes, but Otilia Farrell spoke in a very serious tone : "No, Miss Farrell, you are a great instructor, better than Mr. Williams, at least Mr. Williams will not think of giving students some help outside the school."

"Really? Wow~" Farrell looked at Tommy Hawke, a little surprised by his reaction.

The boy on the opposite side changed from full of helplessness when facing him to engrossed in almost an instant.

Tommy Hawk nodded vigorously: "Yes, I do need some reference books that are missing from our school, but if I sell them myself, the price is too expensive. If you have a library card from another school library, can you borrow them for me? Some related books, I would be very grateful."

The woman in front of her is from Andover Phillips Private High School. Although the school is 170 kilometers away from Warwick, if she is willing to get a library card for herself, Tommy Hawke doesn't mind getting knowledge. And drove 170 kilometers.

"No, I just said that I hope that the following reference books will let you see my efforts as your instructor. I will try my best to do this job well and get along with you on an equal footing." Otilia Fa Riel walked to a sorting box in the corner of the office, bent down to open the lid, turned his head and gestured to Tommy Hawke: "I refer to the standards of Andover Phillips High School and bought some academic books published by famous university professors. reference book."

"Give it to me? Are all these books given to me?" This was the first time Tommy Hawke had an expression called greed on his face after traveling for more than two months.

Because in the past two months, he has known how difficult it is for the bottom poor in the United States to acquire knowledge.

"No, it's just that you have the right to use it in the near future. After you graduate and go to university, you have to keep them in the school library." Seeing Tommy Hawke's reaction, Ottilia Farrell knew that she would do it. Not bad.

"Of course, of course!" Tommy Hawke promised again and again, squatting down in disbelief, and gently stroking the brand-new books in the sorting box that have not been opened. The price of books is astonishingly high, especially academic books rather than entertainment books. It costs Otilia a month's salary.

Martin Luther King, the black leader, once said that from the founding of the United States to the present, regardless of variables such as economic expansion, why it is difficult for blacks and poor people to acquire knowledge, because the price of knowledge is too expensive and has always been kept in a book by the government. The value of books is equivalent to the level of seven pounds of beef, and it is just like this that it is impossible for the vast majority of poor people to have both food and knowledge.

"So, are you sure you won't be unhappy because of what happened that day?" Farrell asked with a smile, looking at Tommy Hawk who was stroking those book covers like a greedy dragon coveting treasure.

"Unpleasant? Miss Farrell, you are now as famous as the Virgin in my heart. If the Virgin does not blame me for blasphemy, I may paste your photo on her portrait and worship day and night." Tommy Huo Ke straightened up and looked at the beautiful teacher in front of him: "This is me..."

"Tommy! That bastard Hugh Spade was cooperating tacitly with Aunt Melonie in the police station, like a holy knight, and slaughtered that damned dragon!" Dennis Hebbs poked his head out of the office , growled in a low voice with unconcealable excitement.

Otilia frowned slightly, looked at Dennis Herbers cutely and reminded: "Student, you seem to have forgotten that you should greet the teacher first."

"Miss Farrell, hello, Tommy! Hugh..." Dennis Hobbs flicked the hairband on his head, and after adding his greetings to the teacher, he continued to repeat what he just said, Tommy Hawk Turning around: "Don't remind me again, I won't renege on the debt, Dennis, they are yours, you can take them away anytime."

"Goodbye, Tommy." The friend who received Tommy's reply immediately retracted his head.

Tommy Hawke turned to look at Otilia Farrell, bowed deeply and said, "Today, I gained knowledge and wealth at the same time. This is the happiest day I have had in two months. Thank you, Miss Farrell."

But soon, Dennis Herbers poked his head out of the door again: "To confirm again, Tommy, according to the agreement, the thirty-seven beautiful girl posters of "Penthouse" magazine that you accumulated are now mine, right? "

Tommy Hawk lowered his head in despair: "Yes, Dennis."

"Yeah." Dennis shook his arm, and with the sound of footsteps going away, he disappeared completely outside the door.

"I'm glad to know that your previous knowledge and wealth came from the "Penthouse" magazine, classmate Tommy." After hearing the conversation between the two boys, Otilia shrugged and teased.

Suddenly there are two more alliance leaders, and I am terrified, thank Nanshan Yongberg, thank the fourth sister, and thank the two for their strong support.
