"Don't worry too much about the past." The doctor waved his hand, "I think we should learn from the past and think about what we should do next." Your experience has given me a lot of new ideas. ”

"New ideas?"

"For example, a lot of things that seem impossible can be used." The doctor pointed to the silent metal cylinder not far away and said, "It looks like a killing machine, but if we know how it moves, can we use him to take us away?" For example, we sit on its head and put one foot in front of him, so that he will always run after the foot in front of him and take us to the point. I remember a light novel with SF elements, and there was a maid who liked to sit on top of a cleaning robot and run around. ”

The doctor's whimsical views left me dumbfounded. Is that okay? Indeed, the fact that the girl with glasses sat on top of the metal cylinder for a long time was unharmed, suggesting that under certain conditions, the metal cylinder is completely harmless. If we could make a metal cylinder stop on a black floor tile forever, it might never eat a man. Sitting on top of a metal cylinder and using your body as bait to walk forward is already thrilling. It is also too complicated to flexibly control the direction so that the metal cylinder only goes through the black bricks. Besides, the metal cylinder was smooth on all sides, and I couldn't tell which direction his face was heading, or if he could go in either direction......

The doctor clapped his hands and brought me back to my senses.

"I didn't expect you to really start thinking about the feasibility of this plan...... I'm just talking about it casually. The doctor smiled wryly and said, "I think it's hard enough to get safe access to the metal cylinder." ”

"Indeed, I didn't even take that into account."

I took other people's jokes seriously, and it was suicidal to think that controlling a metal cylinder. I just felt red all over my face, and I wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"It's okay, I think that's your merit." "You think about every word that others say and add your own understanding." I was watching you before, and you were looking around very carefully, and you were constantly trying to understand everyone's thoughts in your brain. ”

"Is it that obvious?" I still feel that my cheeks are very hot, "I can't do anything well, so I have to learn to read words." Usually I write fantasy novels on the Internet when I have time. Writing a novel requires material from it, so you will subconsciously observe others. ”

"So, that's why you're so perceptive?" The doctor nodded, "In my opinion, humans are like plasticine, incredibly malleable. The so-called talent does not have as much impact on human beings as it seems. On the contrary, it is the environment that determines human capabilities. When you do something on a regular basis, your potential in this area will be slowly stimulated. ”

"Is it because of the environment that we have become such air people?"

"Airman, is that what you call the state we are in?"

"This is another 'air man' said, I'm just borrowing it." I remembered the smile of my senior, and it was one of the only things I could remember, "Isn't that appropriate?" ”

"No, it's not suitable! It's so apt. ”

The doctor laughed so happily for some reason. I looked at him with some confusion.

"That's right, we're air." The doctor nodded and said, "It looks transparent, and it is often overlooked, but for those who claim to be normal, air is also necessary for survival." These 'normal people' live a routine life every day, doing their 'part' according to social common sense. Follow the rules set by the authority and give up thinking. These normal people are too normal, and the so-called normal has become mediocre and the same. If they can't compare themselves to us, they can't find the difference between themselves and the 'cogs' in this highly developed capitalist society. ”

Are we so heavy for normal people? I think back to my school days, the classmates who kept me "collective" by isolating me. If they did lose me, they might have become even more chaotic. When receiving homework, they will refuse to give it to the group leader, and they will become more indifferent when they are tug-of-war with other classes. This must not be the situation that the head teacher wants to see.

"It's all about the environment. It is impossible for everyone to have food, so there are beggars in society. It is impossible for all people to be equal, which is why we became air people. It's not that we're doing anything wrong, it's just that we're in this position. It doesn't mean that normal people are smarter than us. If I die in this proving ground, then after all, it will force a normal person to become an air man like us. ”

It dawned on me. The problem that had been bothering me before was solved at once. Why is there always a student in the class who is bullied? Why do teachers say, "Why do people bully you and don't bully others?" Why are you so special? ”。 The student is being bullied not because the student is weak, but simply because the person who has been bullied will appear to be more vulnerable to bullying. He was bullied only because there needed to be someone in the class who was in the position of being "bullied", so it made sense. This happens not because the person being bullied is weak, or even because it is not the fault of the abuser. Everyone in the class can be bullied and violent. When young children are confined to a cramped classroom for 10 hours, they are bound to act aggressively.

That's the root cause of the matter.

The stress of going on to higher education makes students give up time for physical exercise and recreation, and the pressure is quietly accumulating. Children don't know how to regulate themselves or how to release stress – they don't even know that they're like a taut rubber band, about to break out. That's where bullying time comes in. Unguided stress turns into violence, with the abuser finding satisfaction in the process of devaluing the self-esteem of others, and the abuser gaining the mentality of "I have been wronged and I can boldly seek comfort". Even onlookers can soothe their anxiety with a kind of "fortunately hit someone, it wasn't me who was beaten". This is a subtle win-win, or even a win-win, and this is the truth that school bullying cannot be completely eliminated.

A student being bullied, or bullying others, depends largely on his environment. In the same way, whether a person will commit a crime or not must also consider environmental factors. If you look at history, you will find that most heroes did not have any special features at the beginning. To a large extent, they are separated from mortals only because they live in an era that needs a hero, a ruler, a tyrant.

The possibilities are endless. The external environment will be like kneading plasticine, turning humans into all kinds of different shapes. In society, doctors are taken care of by the people around them, so doctors become patients in the real world. But after losing those who kept an eye on him at all times, the doctor became a trustworthy leader here.

Thinking of this, I suddenly had a question.

- What will this trial turn me into?

The rest quickly passed the black and white floor tiles. I'm afraid they've long seen through the pattern of me and the doctor's walking, but they're just hesitating. However, time was limited, and they decided to fight for a shot. Riko ran over panting, and she looked a little pale.

"Do you need a break?"

Riko took a deep breath and looked at me in surprise.

"Do you know what a dangerous thing you just did? If you're not guessing correctly, you've been swallowed by that metal cylinder! ”

"But isn't the doctor all right?"

"Just because the doctor is okay doesn't mean you're okay, who knows if he secretly found some other hole cards?" Riko said, "Maybe he's found something to keep in his pocket that shields the metal cylinder from observation, or maybe he's got some special ability from the last trial." You can't compare to someone like that! ”

I paused for a moment, and indeed, I probably didn't think of what Riko said at all. Did the Medic really get a special item? The empty hall didn't look like there was anything to pick up. I just learned about the doctor's past, and I don't think he has any special abilities. However, Riko still seems to think that the doctor is different from ordinary people, and she must not have understood that truth yet.

Humans are all the same, it's just that the environment in which they live has changed them.

"But didn't you come with me and the doctor?"

"That's because I know you don't have any items in your pocket, and you don't have special abilities."

Riko's words made me feel a little lost, but it's true that I'm such an ordinary person. It seemed that it was because Riko was the first to follow me that the others made up their minds to face the metal cylinder.

"All in all, isn't that a good thing?" I shrugged, "Also, your face is really bad." Let's sit back and take a break. ”

For some reason, I suddenly thought of the spot of light that was entrenched behind Riko.

Riko shook her head.

"I'm fine, but I think you're weird right now."

"I think it's good." I touched my body in confusion, "And I don't feel tired." ”

"I don't mean physical." Riko said, "You just talked to the doctor, right, did he instigate you to do something?" ”

"No, the doctor didn't let me do anything. We just talked about his past and the mechanics of this trial. Riko, you know what? Actually, these floor tiles are ......."

"Stop!"

Riko interrupted me.

"I don't have to tell me about that doctor's set, I still trust my own judgment."

"But I think the doctor has a point." I pointed to the metal cylinder not far away and said, "That cylinder didn't come over, which means that the doctor's understanding should be correct for the most part." ”

"The right thing is not necessarily beneficial. That doctor deliberately tells you the right thing, and maybe it's not really for your good. ”

"But I think the doctor is a good guy."

Riko glanced at me with a look of desire to say something on her face. I didn't like Riko's expression, but I couldn't find anything to talk to her about for a while. Obviously, the two of us have only been separated for a while, and the relationship between us seems to have drifted a lot apart all of a sudden.
