[Comprehensive] Uncle Ba's food paradise

The teenager waiting in the office waited anxiously.

Unlike other teachers, this new Hopkins professor has a private office, which seems to be completely arranged according to the other's personal preferences.Thinking about it carefully, a few days ago, this was still a reception room. When was it arranged?

The boy couldn't help but look around, and found that the whole room was filled with a very simple atmosphere. The old bookshelves and wooden desks were loosely arranged into books that were easy for people to read at intervals. In addition, there were some things like celestial globes and animals. Bones and stuff like that.

The owner of the room is very knowledgeable and has extensive knowledge, but it is amazing that so many items are crowded in the small room without giving people a sense of clutter. On the contrary, the details reflect that the owner of the room regards this place as a comfort zone.

The boy's gaze lowered, looking at the fingers that he tried to bend but was forced to loosen by himself.

Why on earth did you call yourself here?Is it to blame him for not being gregarious?Or did you find something else?These conjectures made the boy a little nervous.He finally looked up at the room again, trying to distract himself.

Soon, I noticed that there was a round and rumbling-shaped thing in a corner shrouded in shadows on the top of the group of bookshelves on the farthest side.

There was long hair hanging from that thing, and after realizing that it was hair, he shuddered in horror, involuntarily adjusted the focus of his vision, and looked at that thing more carefully.

"Interested? It's a human head specimen used to explain the head-down technique. A small museum closed down and auctioned some things online. This is one of the trophies I collected from it."

Hearing this, the young man relaxed his tense heart. It turned out to be a museum imitation used to introduce history. It can only be said that the owner who collected such things had a strange interest.

Realizing that his thoughts were too impolite, the boy quickly stood up and rushed to apologize.

"I'm sorry, Professor Hopkins."

After entering the room, the professor who closed the door smoothly nodded gently, then walked to the seat in front of the desk, and at the same time stretched out his hand to signal for the boy to sit down opposite him.

This face-to-face feeling made the teenager a little uneasy, almost like an interrogation; but across the table, it seemed that he was not being confronted too much.If he had been to a psychological clinic, he would have found that psychologists seemed to like this set, using this method to control the sense of distance between them and patients.As he thought, this is the professor's comfort zone, and he naturally arranged it according to his accustomed clinic style.

"Don't be so nervous, kid, I'm more nervous than you to be honest. You see, this is my first day at school, so I'm a little bit uneasy about how I'm going to teach. I find you can't feel at ease in the classroom Listen to the class, can I ask why?"

Saying so, the professor filled the glass on the table with water, poured a glass, handed it to the boy, and poured another glass in front of him.

The boy who took the cup with both hands still seemed a little uneasy. He held the cup in his hand and didn't drink it.

"I... I'm not. I'm just a little bit tired, yes, just tired."

Professor Hopkins looked helplessly at this stupid lamb, oh, look at him, he betrayed himself completely just by his expression and movements.I used to deal with the FBI and criminals, but now I miss such a pure and straightforward reaction of normal people.

"I don't know what you're worried about, but you don't have to lie. I can see you're afraid of me, why? I'm just a new professor, my age is a multiple of yours, and I've eaten more salt than you have ever eaten Mido, I'm just curious what makes you so scared, I hope I didn't do anything wrong."

"of course not!"

The boy shook his head immediately, but he still didn't say the reason.

Such a stuffy feeling is very annoying. If it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that I can't help but criticize and question him. However, as an expert, the newly appointed professor knows that doing so will have the opposite effect.

But it doesn't matter, he is good at deciphering.

The old man carefully observed the boy in front of him and recalled every detail of the boy in class.The tone said that the child was easily distracted, rather that the child was attracted by other things... Yes, the child was looking at the specimen before he entered the door.

In fact, from the angle of sitting at this distance, most people can't tell that it is a human head specimen, at most they think it is a ball.But judging from the child's constricted pupils, it was obvious that he saw what it was.

Thinking of all the information and information he found on the Internet not long after he came to this world, the professor had an idea in his mind.

"You know, my five senses are stronger than the average person."

These words really moved the young man, who suddenly raised his head and widened his eyes, as if he saw something incredible.

Sure enough.

So he went on.

"It is mainly reflected in the sense of smell, taste and hearing. These two parts are taken care of by God and are specialized."

Actually, that's none of God's business.

This is a result of directional selection. If you want to become a hunter, you must constantly focus on using specific sensory organs, which will naturally make these organs more sensitive.But this is a bit troublesome to explain, and he used a simpler and easier-to-understand explanation.

"Like, I know you're lying, not just because of your movements and expressions. You're sweating, and I can smell a certain chemical buildup in it, which is a symptom of liars."

The boy's expression became miraculous, and he asked eagerly: "What about vision, can you see far? What about hearing? Can you hear sounds that others can't hear?"

"Unfortunately. My vision is only at the level of an average person. I am already old, and I am very fortunate that I am not nearsighted or presbyopic. As for hearing, I am better than ordinary people, and I am very sensitive to small sounds."

His words obviously disappointed the young man, but at this moment he can already be sure that this is a special person with specialized senses, especially the senses of sight and hearing are quite different from ordinary people.

If this was in the original world, he would consider whether it was a hallucination; but this world has an extraordinary race of people—mutants.Anything can happen in this world, which is the most interesting place.

Professor Hopkins stirred the coffee with a coffee spoon in his spare time, as if he was discussing something natural with the boy, not something that most people would find shocking.

"You can hear sounds that other people can't hear, and you can see more clearly than normal people? It's not surprising. Do you know that even ordinary humans hear different sounds than what they see?"

"Ordinary humans also...?"

This topic made the teenager feel fresh, and no one had ever talked about it like this before.He thought that he was the only one who was different, and everyone saw and heard the same thing.

"Did you know?" the old man raised his finger and pointed to his right eye, "the size and distribution of photoreceptor cells in the eyes of men and women are different. This makes it easier for women's eyes to distinguish colors, and for men's eyes. It is easier to capture the dynamics. Men and women see the world differently, and their eye cells determine this."

Then he put the coffee under the tip of his nose and sniffed it lightly.

"The sense of smell is the same as the sense of taste. Some people can only taste very strong flavors, while others have a very delicate pursuit of taste."

Like himself.

I took a sip of the coffee and was quite satisfied.Unlike those coffees grown with industrial chemical fertilizers that look plump but have no mellow taste, the coffee here is full of nutrients and very palatable.

"The hearing of the human ear is more obvious, and the range of wavelengths that children can hear is different from that of adults, so there will be some sounds that only children can hear. This is still the case for ordinary people, not to mention that humans are constantly mutating What about the one that evolves forward?”

"If some of your senses are specialized, far beyond ordinary people, it is a good thing from the perspective of human beings as a whole. This proves that the human species has not declined, and is still evolving forward, adjusting itself to adapt to the environment. If The complete loss of any possibility of evolution, the absence of any mutations, that's the thing to worry about, and that would mean the end of the 'species' of humanity."

It's not empty consolation, or some good-sounding truths, but a more practical, more scientific, and more objective way to tell the boy that you are special, but it doesn't matter.This may be a good thing.

Finally, the boy's tense emotions relaxed, and he said to the life mentor from the bottom of his heart;

"Thank you, thank you. I feel better."

"If you really thank me, back to our previous question, I really want to know why you are afraid of me? Where did I do something wrong?"

The young man shook his head: "No. As you expected, my hearing is different from... others. I can hear distant voices. At first I thought it was a hallucination, but later I found out that it was someone from a very far away place. sounds. I can also hear nearby ones, like your heartbeat."

"From stepping into the classroom, teaching, to leaving, and even talking to me now, your heartbeat rate has not changed at all. This is the first time I have encountered this situation, and it is impossible to judge a person's emotions from the heartbeat, which makes me Feeling a little overwhelmed.”

The professor was surprised, the answer was really unexpected.

"Then you're probably using the wrong method. My heartbeat really can't be used as a criterion for judging my emotions. I used to be a doctor and received professional training. If a doctor can't keep calm, he will often send the patient to death."

The young man suddenly realized: "So that's the case, no wonder there are so many specimens. Then why did you come to teach instead of continuing to be a doctor?"

"There have been some accidents, and now I have my responsibilities, so I want to find a more stable job, preferably with long vacations. Compared with work, the time with my family is more precious, especially for people of my age .”

The young man couldn't help admiring: "You are right. But your heart beats strong and powerfully. I have only heard such heartbeats in strong young people. I believe you don't have to worry about your body, it is very healthy."

The professor smiled: "I'm very glad to hear you say that, Mr. Kent Jr. If your ability affects your study, I can consider applying for special care for you due to physical inconvenience, and teach you alone to avoid your problems. Physical problems affect your studies."

Young Kent shook his head desperately, expressing that there was absolutely no need to take such special care of him.

Teaching alone in this office with a stuffed human head—whether that’s real or not?Forgive him, he would rather be bothered by loud voices in the classroom.

"Very good, then I look forward to seeing you get good grades. In addition, I hope to find an opportunity to communicate with your family. Do they know about your situation?"

The teenager Ken nodded, expressing his understanding, and agreed to let the professor communicate with his family.

"Okay, then this matter will stop here. Please note that this is a secret between you and me. After all, most students and teachers do not have my professionalism and broad horizons. Some of them make me doubt how to get Primary school diploma. No irony, it's the truth. To save each other's trouble, will you, Mr. Kent Jr.?"

The boy nodded: "Yes, professor, I understand, I won't let others know, that's what my father said too - you can't use your abilities, and you can't attract attention."

What a good dad.The professor thought ironically, if he mixed a turkey with a rooster, and let the turkey crow like a rooster?It's the funniest joke he's ever heard this year.

Although in his opinion, even if there is a difference in taste, it's just chicken chops on the table.

The author has something to say: Professor Hopkins: This is a human head specimen for explanation.

Boy: Why do you put this thing in the office?

Long Qiong: Maybe it’s the same as putting fruit bowls in the living room?
