The lecturer's honest answer did not make the new students laugh, they just looked at each other with helpless expressions. The reality of the world is indeed too hard to accept.
The lecturer didn't say anything else either. He sat back down at his desk while looking at Jane as if asking if she was satisfied.
Jane was quite calm as she sat down again. It seemed that she already knew the answer. Perhaps she was asking just to get out the thoughts that had been bothering her.
Arthur stopped observing her, preferring to stare at the window to see the street outside.
The lecturer started talking again, discussing various things about the law.
About an hour later, he left the classroom, allowing the students to explore the university building.
Arthur happened to want to take a walk, so he stood up.
As he took a step, Jane suddenly followed him.
Arthur didn't know if she just happened to want to go out or was following him on purpose.
