I really don't want to cross

Chapter 73 Selfishness
Apart from a visit from the relevant departments a few days ago, after Wood closed the door and disappeared, there was no further movement, as if this matter had nothing to do with them.

Of course, Wood would not naively think that they didn't care about it, and they were probably secretly discussing how to deal with him, but he had no other way to deal with it, he could only cover it up.

As for the soldiers coming to block...

Wood just wants to say that in a harmonious society, we speak with our mouths.

Delay as long as possible.

Regarding Wood's establishment of a gathering place for cursed sons, rumors of stupidity, ignorance, and suicide have been quietly spread in the Osaka area.

As the news spread, the pressure suddenly increased, and there were even moves of extremists preparing to throw fragmentation grenades containing chrysanthemum into the compound. Fortunately, bats gave an early warning, and Wood came forward to drive them away.

Although what they do, even if they are killed, there is nothing wrong with it.

But killing people can be done in secret, but killing people in the open will make ordinary people even more insane, and blame all the resentment on the cursed son, which will make their situation even more difficult.

But this kind of behavior also made Wood feel angry. When he got angry, he yelled a few times every day when he had nothing to do... As the only vampire in the world, almost all the bats in Osaka were called by him.

Moreover, the news on TV has often reported recently... Gastrum creatures with bat genes were wandering outside the megalithic monument. Wood once thought about whether to bring these gastrulas in to serve as his bodyguards.

But Wood is afraid...

Who the hell knows if these bodyguards will beat themselves together if they are so ruthless.

The overwhelming number of bats acted as a deterrent, and Wood only gave them an order to pounce on and bite any bats within two kilometers of the compound.

In this way, a lot of troubles were reduced. The dense bats covered the clouds and avoided the moon in the dark night, making the compound area extremely gloomy. Just looking at it from two kilometers away was creepy.

After confirming that there is no problem as long as they don't enter the two kilometers, almost everyone walks around this area.

Wood didn't think there was anything to be afraid of, but the little girls were a little scared at first, but over time they became intimate with these bats, and almost everyone had one by their side.

Wood always has a sense of déjà vu when watching Harry Potter, even though the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is full of owls...

At night, Wood will release blood mist to feed these bats, perhaps because of the vampire physique, these ugly little things make Wood feel particularly cute.

It is also because they become the line of defense that the compound feels isolated from the world.

And it's not useless for the news to spread, at least there is no need for Wood to run out to drill the sewers one by one. Those cursed sons have passed on one by one, and they have recently begun to actively seek them out, which has also led to the expansion of the compound.

Although there are dilapidated walls, crooked houses, and some dirty work besides studying every day, every little girl has a happy smile on her face.

Because, this is a family, a community!
Looking at those smiling faces, Wood sometimes really felt that this was probably the only meaningful thing he had done in the first half of his life.

Although it is a crazy move.

It was also a move that he used to never make.

With the emergence of the traversal system, the experience of the Iron Fortress World has really changed a lot.

If the first world came here, Wood would not hesitate to live in the central area and live a normal and safe life.

Because that's the choice he'll make.

Cowardly or selfish.

In the past, Wood never thought about anything other than himself.

In other words, even when he first came here, after having that experience, he once thought so.

But listening to the voices of "big brother and little boss" and seeing the smiling faces, Wood hesitated again and again, and finally his head became hot... Inexplicably, it led to the current situation.

This made Wood have to sigh that human beings do have the emotion of 'sensibility', not to mention that he not only empathizes with him, but truly understands the situation of the cursed son, which is more real and darker...

Not just understanding in the cold screen.

Recently, Wood has been thinking for a long time, could this system be sent by God to correct him because he disliked him?

Shaking his head, Wood walked into the largest building with the blackboard on his back.

Looking at the densely packed little heads below, Wood himself didn't even realize how soft the smile on his face is now. This was probably an expression that would never appear on his face in the past.

The number of cursed children in the compound has reached thousands, and it is still increasing. It is impossible for Wood to teach by himself, so recently, the children who learned first will continue to learn what they have learned. teach down.

And Wood is educating these little teachers, but he still finds time every week to call all the students together, not for teaching, but for giving them the knowledge of being human.

"Those with good eyesight genes sit back, those with insect genes look at their respective species, and find a place where you can hear them, and those with good hearing genes sit back today, and I won't write anything..."

Entering the classroom, Wood began to adjust the seats for these little ghosts.

It is said to be a classroom... In fact, it is a huge empty field. Except for the blackboard that Wood hung up, there are no seats underneath. The little girls are huddled together, sitting on the hay, looking at Wood expectantly.

Wood was not talking nonsense, but directly wrote two large characters on the blackboard behind him.

--Selfish!
The two large characters filled the entire blackboard, even the little girl at the back could see it clearly.

"Who will tell me, what do these two read?" Wood tapped on the blackboard with a stick.

"I know, the first word is pronounced 'from' own self."

"That's me!"

"It's selfish."

"..."

Wood pressed his hand down, and there was a sudden silence below.

"Someone is right, these two words are selfishness."

Wood turned around, his expression became indifferent: "Maybe you don't understand what I said today, but I hope you can remember it."

"Yes."

"What is selfishness?"

"do not know!"

"...I didn't ask you to answer, I'm just setting up a question, don't interrupt me!" The corner of Wood's mouth twitched, and what he was about to say was choked back by the neat answer.

The collapsed face almost didn't collapse...

"Well... what is selfishness? In a narrow sense, it is self-centered, and in a broad sense, it is behavior and response based on personal interests."

"To use an analogy, it's like Xiaoya. She has a hundred apples, and she can't eat them by herself, but you want to eat them; but even if they are rotten, Xiaoya won't let you eat them. This is called selfishness. "

"Brother Wood, I will split it out." Xiaoya stood up straight away.

"... Sit down, this is an example, I don't care if you will be separated, and you are standing and listening to the class."

Wood rubbed his aching forehead, sure enough... These little girls are really annoying sometimes.

"This kind of behavior may make you feel angry, and it may make you feel Xiaoya and stingy, but what I want to tell you now is... There is nothing wrong with this kind of behavior, this is the reality."

"In the same way, I will only give you the reality. Although I don't want to say this, you are different from other children of the same age. I will not coax you like a real teacher and teach you innocent fantasies. Tell you the dark reality."

"And what I want to talk about today is selfishness, according to a man named Wilson: a grass competes with another grass for food, a bird eats a worm, a cat eats a mouse, and a dog competes with another dog for a bone , People eat pork and grains, all of which are manifestations of 'selfishness'.

Although Wilson also admits that genes are neither conscious nor emotional.In fact, Wilson refers to the "objective behavior" of any organism that benefits itself at the cost of harming other organisms as "selfishness". "

"And today I am speaking from the perspective of a businessman."
