Mechanical Doctor
Chapter 86
...
The principal enthusiastically poured Manolin a cup of hot tea and said:
"No problem, Mr. Manolin. Our school is free next week. If you have any requests, just let us know. We will do what we can."
After drinking a sip of tea, Manolin said:
"Mr. Principal, the recruitment exam I am going to hold this time may be large, so please prepare a few more classrooms."
"But don't worry, I am bothering your school so much, so I will not be short of the consideration."
After speaking, Manolin took out a checkbook, wrote down a number on the checkbook and signed his name.
When he handed the check to Eugene, Eugene's hands were shaking.
The number of 1,000 gold coins on the check made him, the principal of the school who was in deep financial crisis, very excited.
Eugene seemed to be unbelievable, and counted the number on the check several times before finally confirming the number on the check.
There was no other way. The school's financial situation was too horrible to look at. With Manolin's money, it was enough for the school's faculty and staff to have a good life.
After calming down for a while, Eugene thought of Manolin, the sponsor, who was still on the scene. He hurriedly offered his courtesy to Manolin:
"Mr. Manolin, I promise you that next Sunday, we will clean the school and welcome you."
"And if you need any support, just ask. We promise to do it for you!"
Looking at this enthusiastic principal, Manolin raised doubts.
"Mr. Principal, is your school's financial situation not very good? Why..."
Manolin's meaning was very clear. How could a middle school principal with thousands of teachers and students look so downcast and bow to others for this little money?
Hearing Manolin's question, Eugene began to complain.
It turned out that the reason why this school was so difficult was because of the funding from the Gran City Education Bureau.
The funding provided by the Education Bureau to the subordinate public schools is a deficit funding, which means that the Education Bureau only provides a part of the funds, and the rest of the money needs to be raised by the schools themselves.
The problem lies here. Most of the students in Eugene's school are children of workers. Where do these people get the money?
In order to ensure that more children can go to school, Eugene has no choice but to set the tuition at a relatively low level.
And even if the tuition is so low, students in the school drop out from time to time because they cannot afford it.
Because of the relatively low tuition, the school's funds are tight, and the tight financial situation has also caused many teachers to resign because of salary.
With more teachers resigning, the teaching quality has gradually declined, and the declining teaching quality has made the school less attractive to wealthy students.
Slowly, the school fell into a vicious circle.
...
After hearing Eugene's explanation, Manolin's impression of this greasy middle-aged man changed greatly.
You can't judge a person by appearance. Eugene is a typical bureaucrat, but he can do such a thing.
...
Rejecting Eugene's warm invitation, Manolin drove back on the way home.
Just as Manolin was still sighing at Eugene's kindness, he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the surroundings.
In Manolin's perception, he had the feeling of entering a demiplane.
And the surrounding environment suddenly became unfamiliar.
The familiar high-rise buildings in the original city disappeared at some point, and these high-rise buildings were replaced by some towering trees.
The cement road turned into fertile land, and the roar of machines that could always be vaguely heard in the city turned into the sound of birds in the forest.
Manolin calmed down and sensed carefully, and found that although this place was similar to a demiplane, there were still some differences.
Manolin initially guessed that he had mistakenly entered a secret realm.
The secret realm is similar to the demiplane, both of which are incomplete small planes "parasitic" on other planes.
But unlike the demiplane, the secret realm has its own special rules.
Manolin saw a rule of a secret realm in the library of the Investigation Bureau, which is that the secret realm named "Rabbit" can only be jumped.
If someone violates it, they will be attacked by all creatures in the secret realm.
As for why Manolin guessed that this is a secret realm instead of a demiplane?
The reason is very simple. If the demiplane is compared to the food coveted by other planes, then the secret realm is the indigestible "residue" excreted by the plane.
The attitude of the complete plane towards the demiplane is that it will "eat" it as soon as it has the chance.
The attitude towards the secret realm is the opposite. The complete plane is always rejecting the secret realm.Manolin guessed that this was a secret realm because he could feel this sense of rejection.
Manolin was going to get in the car to check the surroundings and see if he could find the way back.
The entrance and exit of the secret realm were even more random than the demiplane.
In anthropomorphic terms, the complete plane was very welcoming to the interface of the demiplane. As long as the demiplane was connected, the complete plane would try its best to keep the interface, so that the demiplane would take a certain amount of time to close each time.
Just like a girlfriend who wanted to go home at night, most people would want to keep her girlfriend for a while.
The secret realm was different. The complete plane hated the secret realm very much. When the demiplane found the interface of the secret realm, it would immediately close it.
Just like when a person touches shit, he will instinctively throw it away. (Except for Lao Ba)
So, it was still very troublesome for Manolin to find the exit.
…
The area of this secret realm was not small. Manolin drove for half an hour and still hadn't reached the end of the secret realm.
Since he didn't know what the rules of this secret realm were, Manolin didn't dare to mess around.
Just when Manolin was thinking about how to get out in the car, a "savage" suddenly appeared in the forest.
This "savage" was dressed in rags, with unkempt hair and a dirty face, and his original appearance could not be seen at all.
When this "savage" saw Manolin sitting in the car, he shouted happily:
"Doctor, you are here too!"
When Manolin heard this familiar voice, he looked at the "savage" carefully again, and then asked uncertainly:
"Are you Alfred? Why are you like this?"
"Yes, it's me."
"As for my current appearance, it's a long story."
Alfred smiled bitterly a few times, and then began to tell his deeds during this period.
It turned out that Alfred entered the secret realm a week ago, and he was trapped in the secret realm and tortured by the rules of this secret realm.
The rule of this secret realm is "no sleeping". Anyone who sleeps will be attacked by all the animals and plants in the forest.
Alfred, who didn't know the rules at first, was almost strangled by the roots of the trees that came back to life in his sleep. If he hadn't had some strength and had broken free in time, he would have become fertilizer.
