Chapter 13: We Are All Equally Weak

Nikita had known Anton for only a few days, but perhaps because he had experienced danger together, and was now more of a person in the same boatβ€”or perhaps Anton gave him a feeling that he could confide in. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Who knows?

Maybe he just had something hidden in his heart and just wanted to say itβ€”at a time like this, at a time exactly like he did twelve years ago.

"Oleg has always been a very strong man, and I have to say that he really is God's favorite. He is smart, he is strong, and he has gained the love of the most beautiful Kamala...... Hey. Nikita smiled as he said this: "Actually, like many people, I am secretly jealous of the most beautiful Kamala and Oleg. But one thing that is different from the others is that I also wish them both well. ”

Anton ...... outside the door Anton Liel was rarely able to hear from Oleg's mouth about his mother, Kamala. At this time, he was unusually quiet.

It's as if you are slowly falling asleep listening to the stories of your loved ones in bed before going to bed.

"Mom...... Why did Miss Kamara fall in love with Mr. Oleg?" asked Anton softly.

Nikita thought for a moment and said, "Probably because of his innate sense of justice. Believe me, Oleg at that time was really a guy who could put everyone to shame. Once, our neighbor was harassed by a few thugs, and while we were discussing how to avoid it, Oleg had already beaten them up...... The village was taken care of by Oleg, and now that I think about it, it's really a terrible number...... It's just that this incredible number is a joke. ”

"Why?"

"When everyone you have helped turns against you in the end, do you still feel proud of how many people you have helped?" Nikita said in a cold, almost mean voice, "Ah, those who once said thank you with a smile in front of you, and then did not hesitate to hurt you at the end of the day...... O dear Anton, believe me, it must be the most disgusting and saddest situation you can imagine. But it is also the most helpless situation. ”

Anton Liel frowned, he couldn't really understand Nikita's words, he could only ask, "What the hell is going on?"

Nikita sighed and said, "Our village basically makes a living from mining...... You know what? In that kind of mining area, the injustice and bad things that happen are far more than you can imagine. The crushing from above, and the strife between the miners. Over the years, this has developed a stable and balanced situation - we who grew up there have no idea what the outside world is really like. The only thing we know is that in this village, in this mining area, whoever has the big fist is the truth and the ruler. ”

Nikita shook his head, sighed, and said, "But Oleg is a person who is born with a strong sense of justice. He resisted this soul-decaying lifestyle, and he instinctively hated the oppression of the forces in the mines. He came up with the idea of protecting the people, and he even thought that no one could bully us as long as everyone was unitedβ€”and so he acted. ”

"At the beginning, because of Oleg's help all the time, as well as his prestige in the hearts of the people, there were indeed many people who were willing to resist. We resist unjustified overtime, we demand more time off, we demand better food, and even, we go on strike. In the end, Oleg even more seriously injured several black foremen. ”

Nikita said with a hint of nostalgia: "At that time, I think it was the most promising time for the village in the past few decades. And Oleg is considered a hero - but he did not become inflated, but worked harder to guard this hard-won hope. Just ......"

Nikita's voice suddenly became sad: "Oleg has forgotten one thing, and that is that not everyone can be like him, with a strong body and courage, and most importantly, a sense of justice. You know? The darkness in the mine was never dispelled, it was just hiding. That's right, like a poisonous snake, carefully dormant in the darkness that the light can't see, waiting for an opportunity to move. ”

"Who was it in the first place? I forgot anyway. All I remember was that during the day, as we were getting ready for work as usual, a miner was found collapsed in his home, and his left hand had been brutally chopped off. When we found him, his left hand was not bleeding...... Because, his left hand was very burned, and it sealed all the bleeding places. The palm of his severed hand was still on the edge of the wall, and on the wall was a few words written in the blood of the palm: No resistance. ”

Nikita smiled bitterly: "The revenge of those people came so quickly that we couldn't even react at all. You know? We are different from them -- they are villains, real and real villains, like evil spirits, scoundrels who can do anything! Every day we can hear that one family in the village is being harassed at night, and that one of their houses is quietly set on fire, or that someone has been beaten and bruised on the road. ”

Nikita sighed and said, "No, it really doesn't work." No matter how much Oleg tried to convince everyone, there was nothing they could do to stop the spread of this fear. Even if we still have some people who have been persevering, until that day ......"

Those people said that as long as Oleg was handed over, as long as everyone returned to their old lives, they would not be sabotage, and they even promised that as long as Oleg, who was the leader of the trouble, was handed over, they would improve their work - otherwise, it would be even worse. ”

"Ahh He suddenly felt that his hands and feet were a little cold: "That, then ......"

"I'm sorry, we don't want to, I still have old people and children to take care of at home. ”

"I'm sorry...... They say that as long as you can surrender, they will let us go. ”

"I'm sorry...... Oleg, please, how are you? You've always helped us like this, and this time, please help us this time. They said, "You can forgive my gambling debts," or else...... I'm going to die. ”

"I'm sorry, Oleg, I'm really sorry...... It's just, it's just that we can't help it. ”

"We ...... We've never asked you to do this, do so much. This...... It's just your own self-satisfaction!"

Nikita sneered: "That's the most apology I've ever heard in my life -- I even know that they themselves know what they're doing! If Oleg is a banner of hope, then they're cutting it down with their own hands! When they do it with their own hands, they mean that they are willing to continue to be bullied." But they had to. Who isn't selfish, who doesn't want to protect their families? Those guys, they know our weaknesses all too well!"

"They...... It's too much!" Anton gritted his teeth.

Nikita did not go on on with this question, but quickly said: "Oleg is thoroughly enraged. He rushed out surrounded by many villagers and killed the place alone. When he came out, all we saw was his bloodied body...... It's just that when he watched the villagers who were still holding various mining tools blocking him, his heart after his anger was probably dead. ”

Nikita opened the door and walked out with his pants pulled, "Oleg left with Kamala after that day. I didn't think it was interesting, so I went out with Oleg and went to live somewhere else, which can be regarded as a peaceful life for a few years, right? Oleg and Kamala also had children. ”

But Kamala still died. Nikita took a deep breath and said, "It looks like she died in a car accident, but in fact, she died in the search for revenge." Although we left the village, the group never intended to let us go. ”

Shaking his head, Nikita washed his face and sighed, "Since Kamala died, Oleg has become even more decadent - and he has to do so, because he is afraid, afraid that he does not know that the day when he rebels, he will implicate him and Kamala's only child. It's like the villagers who used to say sorry to him and dealt with him with their own hands. ”

Nikita said with a hint of hatred: "Those people, after killing Kamala, did not continue to do anything to Oleg - I understand their thoughts! They want Oleg to live in this kind of pain for the rest of his life, so that he will never have the idea of resisting again." Because it is too easy to kill a man, and to kill a man's heart...... is the best revenge. ”

He looked back at Anton who was sitting on the ground, a little curious, but didn't ask anything, and sighed: "Anton, remember, no matter how strong you are, a person's strength is only a person's strength after all, and a person's justice is only a person's justice after all, they are all too weak and helpless." This kind of helplessness and weakness can make a man as brave as a lion willing to become a sick cat for the sake of his children, and he only chooses to be obedient to bullying. ”

"This, as far as I know, is the story about Oleg. Nikita suddenly smiled, as if laughing at herself: "Probably, it's also the story of many people, right? We hope for heroes to appear, but we will destroy them with our own hands. We fantasize about being heroes, happy to take revenge, decisive in killing, capable of what others cannot...... But I never thought of bearing the sorrow of heroes. (To be continued.) )
