Chapter Twenty-Five: The Truth-Telling Child Ends Up Believing the Lie as Well
Tsurumi knows, of course Tsurumi should know, although maybe she doesn't know what the real situation is, and she doesn't know so much about the real repression of human freedom in society, but she should still know, at least, she should have a vague feeling.
Sure enough, shortly after announcing that callous answer under the snow, she showed an expression that seemed to have seen through it: "Sure enough, I should have guessed that this is the case, from elementary school to junior high school, it is just a form of re-assignment after being promoted to a new grade, right?"
"Did anything happen when you were reassigned?" I asked, looking at Tsurumi and getting straight to the point.
Of course, maybe this statement of mine is a bit cruel and ruthless, but for a child like Tsurumi, asking questions in a roundabout way is not easy to arouse her favor.
Sure enough, although I showed a resentful expression at the first time, it seemed that I was a little dissatisfied because I revealed her scars, but in the end, Tsurumi shook his head helplessly as if he had seen through something, and said: "It's a very simple thing, because one person is bullied, so everyone starts to bully the same person, and then even the people who have a good relationship with her are also bullied, which is also a matter of course, rumors are so terrible, people just like to follow the group to bully another individual." ”
Then, Tsurumi glanced at me, and I understood what she meant, the method I used with Hayama just now to gain the trust of elementary school students actually used the so-called "follow the collective" principle, among the more than 20 elementary school students, it is impossible that there are no people who are smart enough to a certain extent, and have vague doubts about my approach, but when the vast majority of people only think, "Ah, this big brother of high school students is so cool and powerful" If you see through it but don't act according to the atmosphere of the collective, you will not be regarded as a wise person, but will only be self-righteous, but will be rejected by the collective.
- Just like Yui-san in the past.
I think that it was from that time that I decided on the way in which I acted throughout my junior high school period—if the collective atmosphere of the masses was so difficult to get rid of, then let me be the guide and founder of that collective atmosphere, and all those who did not correspond to the atmosphere I wanted would become the wretched worm who was excluded, which was the right way in the middle of my country.
This is also what I just said, if you want to solve the problem of Tsurumi, one of the ways you can take is not difficult to lead the collective atmosphere, as long as you fire the first shot to determine the atmosphere of this group when everyone is at a loss, then the rest of the people will blindly obey you, yes, human beings are creatures who give up their freedom so easily, even if they know the unfreedom of this society, it is still easy to give up.
However, the results are also heavy, if you can't always get it right, then you who fire the first shot, will lead to the destruction of the whole collective, humanity is stupid, so when you start to lead them, they are easy to blindly follow, but humanity is smart, when the collective destruction appears in front of them, they will quickly realize who brought this collective destruction.
I didn't do that, or, worse, I didn't just bring destruction to the collective, but I destroyed the ideals that I had held on to for three years. The logic of the "Theory of Destruction of Talents" is that people make decisions beyond their ability because they trust their abilities too much, and people who do not have talent or do not show their talents will not be so frustrated, so it will not lead to destruction- However, there is an even more terrible fact behind this conclusion, if there are no talented people who also try to insist on leading a collective, then the collective will naturally obey the leadership of the untalented people in the absence of other leaders, and in the end, the end of the collective under the leadership of the talented people. It must be more miserable.
I don't know if Tsurumi is a talented person or not, but in addition to changing her current situation, I may have changed something more terrible - so I think that this solution may never be used.
"And then, there's something even more interesting, there's a child who has a better relationship with me, and then I'm also excluded, and as a result, naturally, in order to obey the will of the collective, all she has to do is bully me with other people, right?" Tsurumi continued with a cold face.
"That's too much!" said my sister with an uneasy expression, at this point, I don't know if my sister had ever experienced something similar, but I could feel her dissatisfaction with this behavior, and her sadness.
"It's not enough," Tsurumi showed a sarcastic smile, and she said such cruel words by herself, which made me a little unbearable, after all, she was just a primary school student, a primary school student, and she had seen through too many things, but it was also a kind of sadness, "After all, only I have a better relationship with that child, that child knows a lot of things about me, and then, those things, everyone knows anyway." ”
It seems that it is not his business, but in fact, he said something that everyone felt terrible, and Tsurumi's light green pupils looked straight ahead.
And this time, no one tried to reply to her anymore.
Because, everyone was shocked by this cruel sight.
Maybe you can disagree with the majority of people's opinions, and others will symbolically tell you "we respect your point of view", but in addition to the phrase "we respect your point of view", they are always trying to persuade you to accept the "majority" point of view, if you don't accept it, then in addition to "respect", it is full of more bullying, persecution and oppression - in the end, the vast majority of people in society still say: "I respect your point of view." ”
It's ridiculous, but it's true.
The same is true of bullying in school days. There are naturally conscientious people in a group who do not want to do things that insult others, but who will tell them: "Of course you can not do this, this is your freedom." But when he finds out that if he "doesn't do it," he will be excluded, does he care about his freedom?
So, a child like Tsurumi is rare, but it's also great, because at least she's trying to keep her thinking, trying to keep herself from being overwhelmed by the arrogance of the collective, she's resisting, even though she knows that this resistance is very powerless.
"When I got to middle school...... Will this still be the case?"
The sound of whimpering came, and there was sadness, confusion, fear, and almost collapse.
That's right, the vast majority of people can't be great, so after resisting to a certain extent, she will want to give up and want to fit into the collective, because, many times, the value of "freedom" is not as good as an environment that makes you feel familiar and friendly.
"It's better to die than to be free. This statement is a false proposition. "It's better to die than to live", this is the so-called truth.
If these two propositions are too extreme, then it is very simple, for the vast majority of people, they will be willing to trade "freedom" for a stable life, because "freedom" is too luxurious.
Rumi Tsurumi is no exception.
I remember the sequel to the fairy tale called the emperor's new clothes that I saw, the child who told the truth, and finally admitted the emperor's beautiful clothes under coercion and temptation.
Reality, that is, does not give anyone who tries to resist a chance to resist.
------------------------------ Dividing Line---------------------------------------
The people in the ministry department discovered the unsociable Tsurumi, and naturally, Hayama, who could shine on everyone like the sun, also noticed Tsurumi, so naturally, after the bedtime of elementary school students, it was natural that high school students who still had energy began to talk about this problem.
Of course, it was Hayama who first provoked this problem: "Well, everyone has noticed, right? There is an isolated student coming to ......"
Incidentally, everyone now sits around the campfire in a circle. Isshiki and Miura sat on either side of Hayama, and Miura, as always, showed the gesture of "Your Royal Highness, Prince, am I your princess?", and I was a little surprised that although Isshiki also occupied Hayama's side, her attention didn't seem to be very concentrated, and from what I observed, 60% of her time was spent staring at the campfire, and only 10% was spent dealing with Hayama's words - yes, "coping" with Hayama's words, and the other 30% , as if looking at the people around me.
So, my sister is on my right, and on my left is under the snow - I thought I should be sitting with my sister under the snow, but the other side of my sister seems to have been preempted by Hikiya's Komachi sister first, so it seems that under the snow can only sit next to me - the reason why I don't sit next to Hikiya is because Tozuka-senpai and Hikiya are close together, and the distance is even closer than the distance between Komachi sister and Hikiya - Although Sister Komachi seems to be very unhappy with this situation, I still have to risk death to repeat again, than Kiya and Tozuka senpai, you two should hurry up and get married in the Netherlands, okay?
In such a situation, after Hayama first provoked the topic, there was a kind of silence of confusion.
I thought that Miura might say something "Ah, I know, it's that kid" and try to please Hayama, but surprisingly, Miura didn't say anything, I think it's because the other three stupid boys in the Hayama foursome are not there, so Miura's stupid speech has no one to help her cover up, and Miura, who realizes this, decided to be cautious about his words and deeds, right?
In short, Miura stopped talking, and the power of the Hayama group seemed to be inferior to that of the Ministry of Service, and Hayama Hayato, who could turn the field into a home stadium at any time, now seemed surprised to find that he was actually fighting away from home.
"Well, it's Yubihama, the little girl you just talked to-" Obviously, Hayama, who has always been responsive when he spoke, didn't expect this to happen, but why did you look at me with a pleading expression if you were going to stir up a topic - I know I just asked you to do me a favor, but that doesn't mean I should return this favor now, okay?
"Well, although her personality is not very good, she is not actually a little girl who she deliberately wants to be so withdrawn. I nodded and said-In the end, I reluctantly returned this favor, and I was relieved as soon as possible, in case Hayama would use this matter to ask me for anything in the future.
"Well, it's that kid, it's called Tsurumi, right?" Hayama nodded, and showed me a grateful smile, should I say that it is worthy of Hayama? Even a grateful smile is so infectious.
"Oh, so we should get her out of this isolation, right?" Miura seemed to finally feel like he could present himself in front of Hayama, and said something that seemed like he couldn't go wrong.
Of course, this sentence is just not wrong, Ye Shan frowned, and gently spit out a "um" word.
Subsequently, Biqigu's retort also sounded a little unexpectedly: "No, there is nothing wrong with 'isolation' itself, the problem is that it is maliciously isolated or something, uh......"
Hikiya's voice grew quieter and quieter, as if because Miura's disgruntled eyes were fixed on him.
This should be a big mistake made by Biqigu, who can still understand the atmosphere very well, Miura Yuiko finally said something that is not wrong, and can earn a little impression in front of Hayama, you slapped her in the face nakedly, isn't that okay?
- Although I look at the expression on his face when he speaks, I prefer to lean towards his words, which I originally wanted to say to Hayama, but Miura spoke first, and I couldn't stop the evil consequences caused by Kiya's words.
"What he means is that there is nothing wrong with people like him, but Tsurumi is not a person like him, so that's the problem. I glanced at Hikiya and explained.
Although I think this thing is more like doing it under the snow, but taking advantage of the moment to divert Miura's attention and make Hikiya not tremble so much, this is a way to earn favors in front of Hikigu.
"Well, anyway, we can be sure that this child named Tsurumi has a problem, so what we should be discussing now is how to solve her problem, right?" Hayama said with a smile, putting a stop to this triangular battle between Miura, Hikiya, and me.
A child is forced to give up his freedom to integrate into this society, and a group of people who have the ability to change this society do not think about changing the reality of this society, but how to help this child give up their freedom more completely.
This is really a result that makes people feel extremely ironic!
--------------------------------PS-------------------------------
Well, in fact, this paragraph of Liumei, from the perspective of solving her problem, I may not be able to find a good enough other solution, so, I decided to use a different perspective to interpret the problem, as for whether this perspective is right or wrong, I don't know this myself, and the idea in the article is not necessarily the same as mine, you can understand it as a fun point of view. This chapter is a supplement, and only one chapter is owed
