Chapter 181 Historical truth? (Please subscribe~)
"No, I'm sorry." The law enforcement officers subconsciously threw Heimerdinger down. After feeling the big furry head, they instantly realized that the situation was not good.
This is indeed a big pro-Jana person. But his background is too big, even if he is a real bandit, he cannot be caught.
"Congressman Heimerdinger, we really didn't notice it was you."
"This is really too much!" Heimerdinger got up from the ground in embarrassment, his head seemed to be swollen with anger.
"Let me ask you, why are you arresting Skye? Because she and Victor are assistants?"
"Then I'm still Victor's teacher! Why don't you arrest me?"
The law enforcement officers were embarrassed and silent, not daring to look at him.
"Get out, get out of here! Hextech Institute is a place for scientific research, not a playground for your political struggles!" Heimerdinger cursed in rare anger.
"Okay, okay." The law enforcement officials looked at each other, and finally withdrew after hesitation: "Hex Institute of Technology will not investigate for now, let's go somewhere else first."
As they said this, they ran away in embarrassment.
Skye and the male researcher finally regained their freedom, and couldn't help but gasp for air and calm down after the aftermath.
"Principal, thank you." Skye picked up the broken glasses and said gratefully.
"Alas" Heimerdinger sighed helplessly. He had a lot to say, but it seemed meaningless.
Although he is a congressman, the only thing he can really discuss is the matter of Piltover University.
In the end, he could only say to Skye: "Don't go home these days, just stay in the school. With me watching over the school, at least nothing will happen. After a few days, the storm will pass, and the situation may be better."
Better."
"Hey, wait."
Heimerdinger had just made up his mind to at least hold on to the University of Piltover, when he immediately realized something was wrong:
"Those law enforcement officers just said that they would not investigate Hex Institute of Technology and go to 'somewhere else' first?"
What is somewhere else?
Where do they want to investigate, who do they want to investigate, and how many people do they want to investigate?
"Oops!" Heimerdinger felt bad.
He has not forgotten that he is not only the leader of Hextech Academy, but also the president of the entire Piltover University.
Now that even Hextech Academy, the most important academy in Piltover, has been broken into, can other academies still be fine?
Heimerdinger immediately turned around and hurried out of the experimental building.
After walking a few steps, he saw a lively scene on campus:
I saw countless law enforcement officers in blue coats shuttled between the campuses of Piltover University, arresting and escorting professors and students from various colleges.
The students resisted fiercely and the professors argued hard, but nothing could stop them from being invited to drink tea together.
Suddenly, it seemed that this place was no longer a campus, but a battlefield.
"You, what are you doing?!" Heimerdinger angrily grabbed a law enforcement officer:
"Why are so many people arrested?"
"Congressman Heimerdinger." The law enforcement officer was startled for a moment before replying: "These are all orders from the Parliament."
"Congressman Camille said that these students are most susceptible to the dangerous theories of leaders and must undergo key screening before they can continue to receive education in universities."
There is some truth to this.
After all, the Leader Association was born here, and the core members of the Leader are basically students from Piltover University.
These young students who still have a beautiful vision for the world, especially the international students in Zaun, are almost natural sympathizers and supporters of the leaders.
The University of Piltover is the heart and brain of this civilized and progressive city, and has the absolute right to influence public opinion and thought in the city.
Therefore, Camille wants to focus on Piltover University and clean out all the students in the school who may support or sympathize with the leader, thereby changing the public opinion environment of the entire Piltover from top to bottom.
"You, you guys." Heimerdinger was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Then you don't need to arrest so many people!"
He pointed angrily at the large group of professors and students escorted out by law enforcement officers at the other end of the square:
Heimerdinger knew them, they were both from the Institute of Alchemical Technology.
These law enforcement officers said they were only looking for pro-Janna elements, but in the end they arrested almost everyone from the Alchemy Institute of Technology and the entire institute.
"They are all Zaun." That's all the law enforcement officer explained.
Alchemy technology is not taken seriously in Piltover.
Therefore, the teachers and students of the Alchemy Science and Technology Institute are basically not natives of Piltover, but are people who immigrated from Zaun to work as problem solvers in Lower City.
Now that the law enforcement officers see the Zaun people, they suspect that they are pro-Janna elements, so naturally none of them can run away.
This so-called "Anti-Jana Act" has actually been implemented into the "Anti-Zuan Act".
Heimerdinger was speechless and had to ask again: "What about the School of Literature and Art?"
"Why did you arrest so many students from the School of Literature and Art?"
Those who study literature and art are basically locals from Piltover. And most of them are rich.
Could they also be cooperating with bandits?
"They read the poems of the bandit leader Li Wei." In order to win the favor of Piltover's citizens and intellectuals towards the leader, Li Wei had copied many famous Western poems, translated them into the language of Runeterra, and published them in newspapers.
"They also played the music of the bandit leader Seraphine in public during class."
Heimerdinger: "."
"Damn it. These kids are all studying music! Miss Seraphine is now the most famous musician in the Twin Cities and an honorary lifetime member of the Piltover Musicians Association. Is there a problem with the students playing her music?"
"Whether there is a problem or not, we have to investigate to find out." the law enforcement officer said.
"Also, the bandit leader Seraphine has now been expelled from the Piltover Musicians Association - Professor Heimerdinger, you should no longer call her a musician."
Heimerdinger: "."
Shouldn't the Musicians Association be a purely folk art organization? Why is it involved in this?
Hey, science, literature, art. How come when you wake up, all of them suddenly have national borders?
Heimerdinger is meditating here.
A well-dressed middle-aged professor happened to be escorted by law enforcement officers as he passed by.
When the professor saw him, he was overjoyed and asked for help: "Principal! Principal Heimerdinger! It's great that you are here."
"Professor Lemire?" Heimerdinger knew him.
Lemire is a professor at the School of History and Archeology and the director of the Piltover Museum.
He once discussed historical issues with Heimerdinger, a "living fossil," so Heimerdinger was quite impressed with him.
Of course, Heimerdinger was more impressed by Professor Lemire's nephew, the young explorer named "Ezreal" who was already well-known in Piltover.
He even helped research the arcane gauntlet that Ezreal brought back from Shurima Archeology last time.
"Professor Lemire, why were you arrested?" Heimerdinger was shocked.
Professor Lemire is an authentic local man from Piltover. His ancestors have been famous scholars, rich men, and explorers for ten generations.
The main direction of his research is also the history of Shurima, and there is nothing sensitive about it.
Could it be that even he could pass through the Wind Leader?
"Hey." Lemire said helplessly: "Principal, you don't know, it's because I studied the history of Shurima that I got into trouble."
He not only studied the Shurima Empire 3,000 years ago, but also the Shurima colonies 300 years ago.
In his academic paper, he described in detail how Piltover merchants established a colonial stronghold on the northern shore of the Shurima continent, and how they expanded inland step by step, constantly eroding the Shurima people's land.
All kinds of plunder, massacre, slavery, and even cruel genocide that occurred during the colonial period were all recorded by him out of the conscience of a historical scholar.
And these true historical records without any embellishment coincide exactly with the colonial history written by the pioneers.
As a result, Lemire inexplicably became the leading "undercover propagandist" in Piltover's historical circles.
"But I'm really not! I really have nothing to do with the Leader Association! I'm just recording history."
"Principal Heimerdinger, please help me and ask them to let me go."
Professor Lemire reluctantly asked Heimerdinger for help.
Heimerdinger turned to look at the law enforcement officer who was escorting Lemire, but the law enforcement officer said:
"Mr. Lemire's problem is very serious. He is the most famous historian in Piltover, and he must speak responsibly."
"Unless he is willing to sign a public article to clarify the 'historical truth' and draw a clear line between himself and the Leader Association, we cannot let him go home easily."
"Historical truth?" Heimerdinger was still puzzled.
Professor Lemire was so angry that he lost his composure: "The truth is bullshit! They just want me to talk nonsense without conscience!"
