Chapter 44: God's Unfolding Development

There was a panic in the school bus, and the driver heard the shouting of the girl behind him, looked at the situation behind him in the rearview mirror, and instead of stopping, he shouted loudly.

"None of you should mess with her, I'll go to the hospital now. You call the police immediately and tell the police about the situation. ”

At this time, everyone on the school bus panicked, and when they heard the driver's orders, they suddenly came back to their senses and took their own actions. Some people called the police, and some people used a soft sweater to help Mu Jiahe cover her head and stop the bleeding for her according to the first aid knowledge they learned in school.

In the United States, any vehicle that meets a school bus must give way unconditionally. So the school bus drove smoothly into the nearest hospital.

The police have already helped contact the doctor, and as soon as the school bus arrived, the doctor quickly sent Mu Jiahe to the operating room

The school bus driver was a middle-aged white man named Joey. When he finished his busy work and watched Mu Jiahe enter the operating room, he had time to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

At this time, reporters who had been waiting for a long time rushed up.

"How did it happen? Is your school bus a safety hazard? Or did you make an illegal move while driving? The reporters threw out all kinds of merciless questions.

Joey glanced at the reporter in front of him expressionlessly, he knew that he had to take off his responsibility at this time, so in a blink of an eye, he thought of a statement: "I was driving, and suddenly I heard a girl yelling: 'Yellow Pig', and then she shouted dead again!" I guess the whole thing has something to do with that. ”

When the reporter on the side listened to Joey's words, his eyes lit up almost at the same time.

In the United States you can scold the president, call anyone. But you must not scold: ", yellow pig." ”

Because this is racial discrimination, this is a serious crime that once it is detained, it will not be able to survive in the United States.

At this time, when I suddenly heard such a piece of news, all the reporters' attention to this matter increased several times.

At the same time, a group of reporters began to frequently aim at the parties who were being questioned by the police. At this time, she is a great news material in the eyes of all journalists.

In the expectant eyes of the reporter, the police were still unhurriedly questioning the white girl.

"Why are you arguing?" A sheriff asked.

"We were discussing a book and she was thrilled to hear it and asked us to apologize for it. I was a little angry, so I pushed her, and then the car made a sharp turn, and she didn't stand still, and she fell! I really didn't mean to. ”

The white girl was obviously scared, and she was also a little excited. Several police officers asked several times, and found that there was nothing missing or unreasonable in the content, so they stopped asking no more questions and left directly.

As soon as the police left, all the reporters rushed up like sharks smelling blood.

"Did you scold the other party's yellow pig? Did you do this because of the color of the other person's skin? ”

The white girl was taken aback by the reporter's question.

"It's not like that, it's not, I, I'm just talking about that novel." The girl argued vigorously, but she was already panicked, and she couldn't explain it clearly.

At that time, there were a lot of people on the school bus, and many people witnessed what happened. Soon, the whole process was basically restored by the reporter.

On the same day, an article in Chinese with many sensitive words such as "racial discrimination", "school bus" and "Hunger Games" was urgently on the front page of various newspapers and magazines.

The moment this report came out, it immediately aroused the attention of the entire United States.

While countless Americans are paying attention to this "racial discrimination case" on campus, some media have begun to bring another issue into the spotlight.

"Is the dismal sales of 'The Hunger Games' related to racial discrimination?"

Countless Americans can't help but feel a little weak when they see this problem, and they do have such thoughts. But this kind of thing can be thought of or not, because all white Americans are facing a problem in the "Mu Jiahe case". Is not buying The Hunger Games because of racism? This pressure of public opinion is like a thorn in the body of all white people.

So on that day, an extremely strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the United States. Countless white Americans flocked to bookstores to buy The Hunger Games by name

Many times, many things are difficult to explain effectively in words!

For example, if someone asks you if you have bought The Hunger Games and you answer no, then no matter what your intentions are, others will inevitably look at you with suspicion or scrutiny.

So many white Americans choose to go into bookstores and buy a copy.

Lilian Ann is a student at a state university in the United States, and she is a white girl. These days she often hears people mention a book, one thing. There is also a question that is often asked.

"Did you buy The Hunger Games?" At first, Lillian replied bluntly, "No, I don't really like those kinds of books!" ”

However, at the time, the other party's expression was extremely strange, and at the end of that conversation, the other party suddenly asked another question: "What kind of book is The Hunger Games?" ”

Lilian was dumbfounded! Then she clearly felt that the other party's eyes on her had completely changed.

And since that day, the Asian girls around her have suddenly begun to avoid her unconsciously.

She tried to explain, but in the end she bought a copy of The Hunger Games, but when she held the book, her heart was more helpless.

Then one day, she pretended to take the book to the classroom by accident, and happened to be found by her tablemates. Then she found that the estrangement she had had before was gone all of a sudden.

Lillian looked at the book in her hand for a moment, not knowing how to describe her feelings.

With the development of the "Mu Jiahe case", it has bizarrely driven the miraculous growth of the sales of "The Hunger Games". In the face of this strange situation, all the media have collectively lost their voices.

Racial discrimination is a topic that can only be avoided and cannot be mentioned in the United States.

When "The Hunger Games" was involved with the murderous weapon of racial discrimination, there was no discussion about the book in the entire American public opinion.

At this time, the most complicated mood is probably Jack, the new editor of Bantam Press. Originally, he thought that "The Hunger Games" was a big hit, and he would be extremely happy. But in fact, he couldn't be happy at all. The atmosphere in the whole office for the past two days is really strange. Strange things are going to drive him crazy.

The Hunger Games was selling well, but no one in the office talked about it. Even if you mention it, you will only add one sentence, what a lucky guy!

Such a result is not at all what he wants to see! However, it turned out that way, and he could only cry out in vain.

Sales of The Hunger Games are still on the rise, and some even predict that the book could top this week's bestseller list.

But there was no comment on the book, and not a single newspaper had any opinion on it.

The book is like a huge trouble at this time, and no one wants to get close to it. All media chose silence at the same time.

This situation turned out to be unexpected, and the whole thing was completely God's unfolding.

Many people are even maliciously speculating whether this incident was concocted by Bantam Press itself...

Lillian has been a little upset lately. Since the last time she was unintentionally alienated by her classmates, she has developed some distrust of the interpersonal relationships around her for a while. Her concepts and cognition have changed drastically.

To put it simply, she has recently suddenly had some mild symptoms of social phobia.

On this day, Lilian finished class and quickly fled back to her apartment, nesting in her couch with nothing to do.

When she didn't know how many times she recalled the faint estrangement of her friends around her during that time, she couldn't help but feel disheartened.

The Hunger Games! It's all this book, and it's this book that suddenly made her life a mess.

Suddenly, at some point, Lily's peace of mind arose with an extremely strong desire to see for herself what this book that ruined her life was like.

At the thought of this, Lilian suddenly couldn't sit still. She quickly got up from the couch and, in a corner of the room, pulled out the copy of The Hunger Games that she had casually thrown there

After opening the book, Lillian looked at it for a moment.

It was the first time she had taken a serious look at the book since she had been buying it for so long.

After a moment's pause, Lillian flipped the pages and began to read the novel.

The story is in the first person, in a completely straightforward style, without pretensions, but Lilian finds herself unconsciously intrigued.

A smile tugged at the corners of her mouth as she watched Gail and Katniss gossiping in the forest.

"It must have been this Gail and Katniss who were chosen as sacrifices." Lily thought with peace of mind.

However, she soon discovers that she is wrong. While Katniss was indeed chosen to replace her sister, Gail was not. Instead, a boy named Pita was chosen.

The rest of the story kept advancing, and before Lilian knew it, she had changed from the initial half-lying position to a meticulous upright position, and the speed of reading the book became slower and slower, and she felt that every sentence in the book seemed to have countless small details.

When she sees Pita confessing to Katniss in front of the camera, she cheers in her heart.

When she sees that Pita has betrayed Katniss, she begins to hate the man again.

When she sees that Pita is willing to dance with wolves in order to protect Katniss. At that moment, something called a girl's heart in her heart exploded all at once.

When Katniss saw that she was ready to eat the poisoned fruit with Pita and end her life together, she was already in tears.

A 200,000-word novel was read by her in one go. When she looked up from the book again, it was already dawn.

She watched it all night without realizing it.

However, at this point she didn't feel anything else, the only thought was that she was going to confide in someone, who she had to talk to about the book, about the story she had just finished reading.

Otherwise she will explode.

Thinking of this, Lillian finished washing and changing clothes at a speed never before before, grabbed the Hunger Games and ran out the door as fast as she could.
