I'm telling fortunes in North America. I'm really not a wizard.

Chapter 39 Would you like to be a teacher?
“I want to know, why did this ghost appear in the school?
Are there any other ghosts besides this one?"

Old Mrs. Wood obviously also thought of an old saying that goes, when you see a cockroach appear in your house, the cockroaches have actually already curled up in a nest in secret.

and so.

When you see a cockroach, what you need to do is clean the whole house and check if there are cockroaches already breeding in your corner?
Only by cleaning in time can the development of cockroaches be curbed. Otherwise, once they are successfully reproduced into batches, it will be troublesome in the future.

“Ms. Wood, I’m sorry, but I don’t know how this ghost appeared in the school.

I don’t even know if there are any other ghosts lurking in other dormitories or other places in the school besides this one.

But so far, the ghost in the mirror that we have seen has been subdued and dealt with by us.

The rest can only be discovered after it is discovered!"

Suddenly, a vice principal next to him asked, "Mr. Wizard, I have a question. Are ghosts like this common in schools?"

Uh……

Is it common?
Chen Yaozu thought about it and realized that it was common in ghost stories, but it should not happen in reality, so how should he answer?

If the answer is uncommon, what reason should be given?

After thinking for a while, I said: "I'm sorry, sir, I have never seen a ghost in school before.

After all, I just came to America not long ago, and it is impossible for ghosts to appear in my hometown school, which is what you often call ghosts here."

There can be no ghosts.

Are you so sure?

Chen Yaozu's affirmative tone instantly aroused the curiosity of the three principals opposite.

Ms. Wood asked directly: "Why?"

Chen Yaozu was stunned by the question. He didn't expect that the other party would dig deep into the matter!
Suddenly, a piece of information flashed through his mind, and his eyes lit up. Got it!

It was the amulet that detected his predicament and provided him with information support to deal with the questions raised by the three principals in front of him.

No, there are also two mother and daughter who are curiously waiting for the answer.

“In the East, schools are sacred places, so they have a certain amount of luck!
Ordinary ghosts and monsters, that is, various kinds of ghosts, are unlikely to appear in school.

If it does happen, it must be a private school with a lax school spirit, poor management, and chaotic work style.

If it is a public school, it is an education system within the national system, suppressed by the country's destiny. All ghosts and monsters appearing in the school are like creatures appearing in a boiling oil pan.

In addition, even if it is not a private school within the national education system, as long as it is an elementary school, such ghosts and apparitions rarely appear.

Because children have not yet lost their virginity, that is, they have not had any sexual intercourse, boys are still virgins and boys are still virgins.

If ghosts appear in these places, it would be no different from seeking death.

Even if there is a school like that that legend has spread, it can only be a high school, a private high school!

At this time, boys have basically lost their virginity, girls have had their periods, and some may even have boyfriends or girlfriends.

There may be some dark places in the school at this time, such as toilets, girls' toilets, etc., where ghosts may appear.

This is not surprising!
But in the East, reading has a very special status. Wherever books gather, there will be a certain amount of luck and protection.

So basically, it is rare to hear about ghost-like incidents in Eastern schools, even in private high schools!"

This explanation made the five people in front of him even more confused.

Ms. Wood asked again in confusion: "Our Portwater High School is the 36th ranked public high school in Los Angeles. In other words, it is a school within the national education system as you said.

Why do ghosts appear? "

Yes, other people also have this doubt. They have had this question since Chen Yaozu said that ghosts would not appear in Oriental public schools, because this school is also a public school.

“Because our boss in the East is too tough, and you, America, are not that tough when it comes to this fantasy world of ghosts and the like!

Besides, thousands of years ago, a sage in the East once said that a gentleman does not speak of strange things, supernatural powers, or demons.

Some sages also said that we should cultivate a righteous and upright spirit.

Therefore, in the East, schools that teach and educate people have always been sacred and inviolable since ancient times.

In the long run, this is how it should be, in the eyes of Orientals.

Of course, there are very few strange things like this.

This is the confidence of Oriental people!
In addition, unlike the various bizarre legends in Europe and the United States, there is only one saying in the East: animals cannot become spirits after the founding of the People's Republic of China!

Of course this may just be a joke. We can take it as a joke, but the creatures in the mysterious world will never take it as a joke.

This is why things like ghosts and monsters rarely appear in the East, but they are very common in the West. "

This explanation is not actually very good, but everyone understood it.

"All right!"

Ms. Wude thought for a moment and asked again: "As I asked just now, if the only ghost in Portlot High School now is the ghost in the mirror in your hand.

After you suppress him, will ghosts no longer appear in the school?"

Chen Yaozu shook his head: "Ms. Wood, have you heard of the broken window effect?"

It was obvious that Ms. Wood had not heard of it. Not only her, but no one else had heard of it, including her cheap mother-in-law and Audrey around her.

However, asking questions when you don’t understand is a quality that an educator should have.

“What is the Broken Windows Effect?”

Since the other party didn't know, Chen Yaozu explained it in more detail.

“In the East, there is a saying that if someone has 100 yuan in their pocket, they can keep it for a long time if they don’t break it.

If you break it open and start using it, the 100 bucks might be spent in just one morning.

This is the window effect.

When it is still an integer, it may exist for a long time, but when a gap appears, its existence will be in jeopardy. "

Ms. Wood understood: “You mean to say that before there was a ghost at Portwater High School, he might never be ghosted.

But once one appears, then there will likely be two, three, five, or ten more in the future, right?"

Chen Yaozu nodded: "That's right!"

"Ok!"

Ms. Wood took a deep breath and asked solemnly: "Well, Mr. Chen, I have learned about your work, which is a bit unstable.

So I want to offer you a job now!
Would you like to be a teacher at Portwater High School?"
