Seventy-ninety-two, Alice, what's wrong with you?

"This kid is indeed a pervert, but his mother is not an ordinary person. ”

Levi sighed. Although he didn't directly say that the boy's mother was also a scumbag, it basically meant that. Over the years, Levy has seen a variety of parent-child relationships. Especially although he himself has no biological children, he is also a person with children, and he understands the minimum responsibilities that parents should fulfill.

Indeed, everyone in this world is an individual. Especially in the era of increasing emphasis on individual autonomy and personal independence, represented by some Western countries, parent-child relationships have become more and more detached from tradition. However, this kind of departure from tradition is often only the way parents and children get along with each other, especially the way children get along with each other as adults. However, it does not completely abandon the bottom line that parents should care for and raise their children carefully.

Some people feel that it is a great gift for them to be born into this world, and that no matter what they do, they should not have the slightest resentment, let alone rebellion and rebellion. However, it did not occur to them to assume that everyone thought that being born in this world was the most important and the first happiness of their lives? Although Lévy was very opposed to suicide, it was undeniable that people who wished to die, did not wish to live, and wished that they had never existed in the first place were not so rare and hard to find.

In view of the prevailing contemporary notion of individual autonomy, it is an exaggeration to say that it is the parent who unilaterally brings the child into the world without consulting him/her opinion. As counterintuitive as it sounded, Lévy himself didn't think that such a thing could be sorted out with such simple logic, and he didn't even think that such a thing could be explored by a thoughtless mortal like him.

However, even if it is only based on the so-called outdated traditional ideas, or the bottom line, it is for the sake of maintaining social stability, which seems to be big and empty, but it is indeed a reason for every person to fulfill his or her obligations. As parents, they also have the obligation to raise their children soundly, at least until they are able to support themselves. For example, the mother of this cruel teenager, judging from the teenager's attachment to her, if she maintained regular contact with her child at least after the divorce, even if it was superficial, and showed some care for the child, I am afraid that her child would not have finally embarked on this path, and even could give full play to his intelligence and become an enviable successful person.

Parents like this are the kind of people that Lévy considers unworthy of parenthood. Although the teenager's mother herself probably felt that she had inexplicably made such a 'burden' just for the sake of overnight pleasure, if she could make the child disappear from the world, maybe it would be her wish.

"I also once found the mother of the teenager. ”

Kuroki also said, which also made Levi look interested. He wondered if the mother was an 'ordinary' person, as he had guessed.

"The woman was very impatient at the sight of me, and when she heard of my intentions, she looked even more eager to drive me away. ”

Speaking of this, Hei Tong also shook his head. Alice, who was on the side, didn't understand the details because of her lack of experience in communicating with people, but Levi could also sense from what Kuroki said that the teenager's mother was not only particularly indifferent to her own son, but also the attitude she had towards most of the rest of the people. In the final analysis, it is very likely that he is a person who is cold by nature and treats everything except himself and what he values so coldly and ruthlessly.

"I'm impatient when I see you? You shouldn't be the woman you're seeing now, right?"

"Of course not, I went to her as a teaching assistant at another university. I thought she was the kind of person who was obsessed with academic research and neglected things in life. However, after actually meeting me, I realized that she was more likely to be so cold about everything at all. ”

As Levi expected, Kurotong had also seen the woman with his own eyes, talked to her at least once, and still came to the same conclusion as Levi.

The teenager thought that her mother had chosen a job and academic studies and had given up on her family and him. But from what I've observed, I'm afraid that her mother simply found her family and her children annoying, and chose to flee. In fact, at least from my brief contact, I didn't notice how enthusiastic she was about her work and the projects she was researching. She made me feel like the kind of professor that exists in every university. Everything is just work, and the results of the papers written and published are not based on their own interests, but the work necessary to retain the title of professor and get research funding, just as students have to complete their assignments and take exams on time when they go to school. ”

Kurokirigan also spread his hands disappreciatively, it seemed that the teenager insisted on dropping out of college, even if he fell out with his family. It is also possible that after going to college for a while, I was disappointed with the atmosphere of the school. Seeing the dolls made by the owner of this Garan Hall that led him to a new world was an important opportunity for change, but it was not the whole story.

"The way it turned out was that I felt a little sympathy for this kid. ”

Lévy chuckled.

"Alice, what's wrong with you?

Lévi and Kurokirigan were chatting to themselves, during which he politely glanced back at the girl he had brought with him, only to find that Alice had a subtle expression on her face. She bowed her head slightly, her half-closed eyes obscured by her short golden bangs. The look seemed to recall some not-so-pleasant past, and it seemed to remember something with regret.

Levi and Alice have been in a relationship for a year. During that time, the two just got along with each other in the literal sense of the word. Even if Alice likes to stay in her room for most of the day, even in her own home, she is still far from Kaguya's level after all. Just as Alice's dress gives the impression of her, she herself has a lifestyle close to that of Western European pastoralism. Every day, I would sit outside the house and have afternoon tea or something.
