Ninety-eighty-seven, pleasure is very simple
Eve quickly grasped the meaning this time. Although she doesn't understand the mentality of those people, she often watches TV with other people in the family, and she also finds that some adult men on the planet, especially in Western countries, seem to be a little resistant to short-sleeved and short-pants and other dresses. In particular, people with a little social status that Levy just mentioned generally do not wear short-sleeved shirts, even if it is inconvenient and the weather is hot, they would rather roll up their sleeves than choose short-sleeved styles.
Eve understands this as a 'need' at work, like some of the killers of the past. Obviously, they are dressed very inappropriate for activities and battles, but they still have to dress up as the 'image of a killer' in the impression of others. In fact, even the combat uniform that Eve herself used to wear was not designed with reference to the characteristics of some of her peers' dresses she had seen, combined with her own preferences.
This reasoning...... Probably like the 'uniforms' that students and other workers must wear, Eve had carefully observed the various humans she encountered outside. She has long found that practitioners who seem to be in the same profession will always have some similarities that can be seen at a glance by attentive people.
When these people come together. Even if they weren't wearing the uniforms of students, flight attendants, police officers, etc., Eve could tell that they were colleagues at the same job, rather than friends in different jobs.
"For those people, they wear armbands for convenience, there is a real need. But there are also some people who wear armbands for the same reason I told you just now, or just for decoration. ”
"How do you decorate something that you can't see inside your coat?"
Although she wasn't really interested in these things, Eve was still a little curious when she heard this. After all, she didn't understand how things that were worn inside, and what others couldn't see at all could play a decorative role. Although the truth is not the same, it depends on Eve to ask this, which also shows that she is different from other girls, right? Obviously, she doesn't have a boyfriend, so it is impossible for people to see what she is wearing inside, but she still cares about and likes to choose underwear How rare is it? Like Mikoto Misaka, who is wearing safety pants and worrying that her favorite childish underwear will be discovered by others, Eve probably can't understand her thoughts at all, right?
If you're afraid of being seen, wouldn't it be nice not to buy that kind of thing? Anyway, if you wear it in it and don't talk about others, you can't even see yourself. If Mikoto Misaka had taken her own troubles to Eve, she would have received an unhelpful answer that was 100% like this.
"Didn't I say that some decorations are not meant to be seen by others, but by the user himself. ”
Lévi put his coat back on, as if he had been a little frozen, and hugged Eve's arm tightly and rubbed against her. Evan had complained before that Levi used her as a pillow, and it is estimated that Eve will find out that this man has a 'not pure mind' about him after a while.
"But the role of that armband can really be seen by others. ”
Levi rubbed the girl for a while, then raised his arm again.
"For gentlemen who are particularly particular about dress, they are very concerned about the fact that the sleeves of their shirts show a few centimeters of their coat. ”
"How many centimeters are the sleeves exposed?"
Eve looked at Levi's wrist, the sleeves of the white shirt he was wearing were slightly longer than the sleeves of his coat, revealing the outside.
"I don't remember if it's two centimeters or how much, anyway, they wear that armband just to make it easier to adjust the length of the sleeves of the shirt inside to achieve the length of the sleeve that they are particularly entangled with. ”
Levi was amusing when he said this, but he didn't mean to laugh at others.
Although many people in modern times generally scoff at the pursuit of those nobles in the past, they often call it an unpleasant evaluation such as "full of food and support". But let Levi, the man who 'once lived in antiquity', say what those people said about the nobility of the past...... That's right!
Modern people have a variety of pastimes and entertainment, except for a very small number of people who are not naturally interested in various things, most people can easily find some things of interest and fill their spare time.
Watching TV, playing games, reading a book at home, and there are a variety of entertainment options to choose from if you don't want to stay at home. Even for people who are not so financially well-off, they go out in many ways to meet their psychological and physiological needs in a relaxed and enjoyable way.
For example, for a small amount of money, you can sit in an air-conditioned, comfortable movie theater for two hours, and for example, various entertainment and leisure places built by the government as welfare facilities, such as squares and parks in urban areas, and nature reserves in the suburbs, can also allow people to play as long as they want without spending a penny.
As for the rich and powerful 'noble people', the entertainment they can enjoy is even more than ordinary people may not even be able to imagine. It's like the popular saying on the Internet, 'Are rich people necessarily happy?' no, you can't imagine rich people being happy'.
Thanks to the high development of modern society in all aspects, it can almost be said that as long as you are willing to pay, you can get most of what you want. However, in those times that were far less developed than they are now, the wealthy and noble, who were still superior even if they were born without a need to work, could only enjoy entertainment that seemed very poor compared to modern people.
However, a large part of the hereditary aristocracy in ancient times did not need to work for a lifetime and could enjoy far more than ordinary treatment. They have a lot of free time compared to modern people, and they don't know how to spend it. In this kind of situation where it is indeed 'full and there is nothing to do', so many things that make ordinary people sound 'absurd and boring' are naturally pondered by them.
"You should know the term 'flaunting wealth', right?"
Lévy kept staring at the man he thought was suspicious, but the other person did look like he was just passing by and a crowd of onlookers.
"Do you mean those rich people who show off that they are rich?"
Although Eve gives the impression of being a 'literary girl' who holds a book all day long like Yuki Nagato. But that doesn't mean Eve doesn't do anything but read.
