Crossing the stars, I live-streamed my cultivation in kindergarten

Chapter 285 The Dark Secret of the Half-Beast Cub's Wounds

In the live broadcast room.

As soon as someone mentioned that they might still be alive, the live chat instantly brightened up with sunshine.

"...I apologize for being so intrusive, but I'd better keep quiet."

"…Excuse me, I'd better go back to the lecture."

"...That was too hasty. I'll just watch the live stream instead."

"...Oh no, I'd better get out of here."

[...It's quiet now. I'll just keep laughing at those haters in my heart.]

"...That's too much! Your formation is so well-organized, I don't even know what to say."

[...I'm so sad, because I had finally managed to convert my speech to text using voice input, only to find that the troll had left, and I have to reorganize my thoughts.]

[...This is hilarious! I thought being slow with my fingers and preferring to type manually was bad enough, but then this stutterer insisted on choosing voice conversion!]

[...We've run into a trap! You can laugh if you want, but why laugh at rats? What are we rat-orcs supposed to do now?!]

[...You guys are all so talented, what am I supposed to do?]

[Sunshine Kindergarten: Beast cubs are the future of our beast race, the flowers of the interstellar space. We should not abandon any of them.]

[Sunshine Kindergarten: Beast cubs that cannot achieve perfect transformation are not defective; they simply have slightly weaker control abilities compared to other beast cubs.]

[Sunshine Kindergarten: It's not the cubs' fault that they have genetic diseases. On the contrary, it's the fault of every adult beastman that we fail to treat the bestial and semi-beastly cubs correctly and rationally. We urge every beastman to pay attention to the mental health and happy growth of these special cubs.]

[Sunshine Kindergarten: It's class time now. Dear fans and viewers, it's best to bring your little ones and listen attentively; you might be surprised by what you learn!]

I don't want to be obedient either, but the kindergarten officials have all come out and told me to pay attention in class.

To be honest, this is the first kindergarten I've encountered that's willing to accept both beast-like and semi-beast-like cubs. As a parent with a semi-beast-like cub who doesn't want to give it up, I'm really easily influenced by the Sunshine Kindergarten's peaceful attitude. I've already brought my cub to attend a class.

Since the incident where a half-beast male cub tore apart an adult female orc, discussions and attitudes towards beast-like and half-beast cubs in interstellar space have become extremely polarized. Everywhere you look, there's criticism and calls to abandon substandard offspring. No orc is willing to pay attention to why the half-beast male cub exhibited such a stress response. They simply condemn these cubs suffering from genetic diseases.

[Not only that, but parents used to discuss on the StarNet how their cubs, despite having a genetic disease, were well-behaved and sensible. Kindergartens wouldn't refuse such students. Most beastmen maintained a neutral or friendly attitude towards these cubs. But after that day, everything changed.]

[From then on, any netizen who said a good word for the genetically diseased cub on the StarNet would be harassed and even threatened with physical harm by radical beastmen, even if they only said a neutral thing!]

[It seems the entire interstellar climate has shifted. Society and the public have demonized these young beings, as if they were born berserkers, as if they shouldn't have been born into this world. Some orcs have even proposed to destroy these "substandard products" en masse.]

[Sobbing, I know, it happened right near us. It was that female beastman who psychologically manipulated and bullied that half-beast cub for so long, frequently subjecting it to physical punishment and verbal abuse. That poor cub was always covered in old wounds, new ones constantly appearing. I, the beastwoman, even treated it! The worst part is that the female beastman, to satisfy her own desire for fame, fed the cub many unknown, substandard drugs. That's what ultimately caused the cub to go mad! I finally have the courage to speak out. I've always felt so guilty towards that poor cub. Because I was afraid of being cyberbullied, because I was afraid of being blamed, even though I knew the truth about the cub's madness, I didn't dare to say it.]

"I also know the truth about that matter, and I know even more clearly that the reason for this one-sided public opinion is because of the female beastman's family. The beastman parents of that half-beast cub disappeared after this incident. The beastmen in our area actually all know the truth, but they dare not speak out because of the threat from that female family."

[I'm also one of those in the know. If I hadn't been in this live stream today, moved by the unwavering stance of Sunshine Kindergarten, I wouldn't have dared to speak up at all. I'm a coward.]

[It's amazing that you even said it! Hugs to you all!]

The fault doesn't lie with you, it's with that female and her family!

Silence is also a mistake.

[Don't be so harsh. We're just ordinary orcs; we know how difficult it is to fight against the power of a large clan.]

Yes, I've made up my mind to report this to the Baby Protection Association.

[It's been too long; even if I report it now, it probably won't do anything.]

[...It was useful; I actually secretly kept the evidence.]

Wow, upstairs, you're a hero!

[Applause!!! The spirit of that little beast will thank you in heaven!]

【And there are us, the audience!】

[...And then there are families like ours that have beast-like or half-beast-like cubs!]

You've all been brainwashed by this kindergarten's staged performance!

[This is hopeless! They're actually speaking up for the genetically modified cub!]

Under Jiang Yuxi's lecture, everyone was surprised to find that the cubs seemed to be able to understand and were willing to calm down and listen attentively.

This phenomenon not only occurs at the live broadcast site, but also around them.

My own little one was sitting quietly and obediently listening to the lecture. His upright little face clearly showed that he was afraid of missing a single word!
[This is amazing. My beast-like cub is usually never still, but now he can actually concentrate on this kindergarten lesson? I've bought him online courses before, but he couldn't focus for even a minute! What a waste of tens of thousands of yuan I spent on courses!]

[Let alone the cubs, I'm getting a little addicted to it too; I feel all warm up, it must be because I'm so excited.]

[Online courses costing tens of thousands? Are we being ripped off? It's better to buy Sunshine Kindergarten's live-streamed or pre-recorded online courses. The former is more expensive, but the latter… you can get a lesson for the price of a bottle of E-grade nutrient solution. Surely no beastman could afford that, right?]

[Wow! That's cheap? Recorded tutorials for only a few dozen star coins? Last time I bought recorded lessons, it cost several hundred star coins per lesson! What a rip-off!]

[There are discounts for buying courses by subject or by semester! The lowest discount is 5%! I bought a whole semester's worth at once.]

At this moment, some sharp-eyed orcs among the audience who were discussing the matter noticed that a major change had occurred...
