In this chaper I assume certain things about the history of this society. Links to the real world example for this assumption can be found at the bottom.
Bill hesitated.
"Mr. Windspiel" The Headmaster said and paused little a moment. "Do you really consider he should adopt this chicken?" Mr. Gon raised an eyebrow and answered: "I don't do anything in this direction. I only show the possibilities."
Bil sat there and it seems that he wouldn't say anything. But suddenly a little stiff spoken Question broke the silence in this room. "What kind of Test could that be? Does really exist a test to approve a carnivore would be able to raise a child"
Hiding a laugth an with a smirking face Mr. Windspiel answered: "No there isn't really a Test for this specific case. But there is a real test that carnivores have to pass if they want to do a job in a hospital, on a Police station or for carnivore teachers at School." Mr. Windspiel nod against Mr. Gon and said. "Another opportunity for me to insist and consider adding this test to the exams of the Cherryton Academy. It would make it easier for many institutions to find good staff"
Mr. Windspiel, I told you earlier we are not able to train our students properly for this test. Also there are many people that got a mental disturbance simply from training and therefore from the test itself. We aren't even able to get our students along together in a forced mixed Academy. We have recently separated our classes and living environment to confront only people with a mixed environment who are willing to do so - as you know.
Mr. Windspiel turned his head back at Bill. "You will need a proper training to get prepared for this test. This kind of Preparing seems expensive if you wish doing it outside a general study for example at a police academy. But I might have an Idea where you could get a person for training."
"If I wish to adopt this child..." Bill got interrupted. - "If you wish to raise this child. - It's already your children, you don't have to adopt it, you have to decide to give him up for adoption." Bill's head sunk on the desk. "If I wish to raise this child, do you believe it could have a better life than in an orphanage?
"Only if you chose this because you are really interested in raising this child with all the consequences it has. Like no free time, a child that got sick and need help or a child that is an asshole because it does not understand what it does until you teach them. And not because you feel guilty or duty. This both may help to do it but not help you doing it right the next 20Years. Do you feel that way?" - "I'm not sure"
Mr. Gon interrupted this conversation. "I'm not sure if you are the right candidate for such kind of training, also because you know the Back Market, but you should try this training. You will see how it will work for you while doing it." Bill raised his head. "Why does every one know I'm visiting the Black Market?" - "Really? We have here a high-class Academy and a Back Market every one could reach easy in no time. Do you really think we do not check what our students do?"
Bill was a bit shocked: "But why am I still at this school? I did forbidden things." - "Forbidden, he said." Mr. Gon laughed. "Do you know how this country was formed? Every carnivore city had such a market. It was not possible to close them without problems in society. So our country forbid eating meat but defined the old market area as special zone. Inside it, it's allowed to eat meat. It was the first decision, a consensus between the herbivore and carnivore to be able to form this country. The federal counsel with three herbivores and three carnivores and a "primus inter pares [1]" as federal president [2] which itself rotate every year between a herbivore and a carnivore, was simply not able to get rid of this. Until my Generation, we spoke about this area as Back Market. Your generation speak about it as Black Market."
"Should be enough Mr. Gon" Mr. Windspiel said. "He's right, inside this area, eating meat is allowed. I'm not sure If you would be able to pass the training or even the test. But I like the idea anyway - as Mr. Gon know. I would propose that you speak with a former student of this academy. Legoshi, a Gray Wolf you may know him should be able to help you here if you have question and need some experience"
"What!"
Bill and Mr. Gon shouted this same time. Mr. Windspiel looked at them confused. "Yes, is that a problem?" - "As far the police told me he has a criminal record because of eating meat outside the Back Market and made permanent damages to a herbivore." I know Mr. Gon. Unfortunately I cannot say more for reasons of data protection. But you should also know that he was an apprentice in the operational forces of a reputable Psychiatric Clinic - and not a patient there. After his probation, he may be able to do this test also."
