Chapter 4 Ok 354
Is the lie really wrong? Is hypocrisy unnecessary?
The answer is definitely no.
Lie itself is a neutral word, not a derogatory term, which is why there is such a special word as white lie, which is a word that everyone can understand without saying much.
As for hypocrisy, I think many people don't understand the meaning of the word hypocrisy, which is the consciousness of an individual, who openly supports certain attitudes or certain behaviors, but then acts in a way that goes against that attitude or behavior.
If you don't understand this, I'll explain it in a simple way.
Inconsistent hearts and mouths are hypocrisy.
But is this really a derogatory term?
This raises the question, what is the purpose of hypocrisy?
I think most people disguise themselves to keep up with the crowd and make themselves look like they're in tune with the crowd, is that wrong?
Definitely not.
This in itself is a thing that promotes the healthy development of society.
Everyone will have a little hypocrisy, which is an inevitable psychological pattern of social animals like humans.
It is precisely because these things are inevitable that we use such a roundabout way to save the world.
As I said, House signed the negotiation directive very early, but this directive has not been implemented, and the reason is very simple, because there is such a clause in House's directive - the negotiation can only be carried out if the other party initiates the negotiation and we have the right to take the lead.
No country is willing to suffer losses in the negotiations, which is also a matter of course, and we can also understand House's order that whoever initiates the national negotiations first means that whoever will lose the initiative, and the loss of the initiative means that they have lost their dominance.
Dominance, I don't think it's that important, even if you get it for the other party, it doesn't mean that the other party can do whatever it wants, not to mention that this is still a life-and-death negotiation, I don't think the three of us, no matter which side will make too many demands.
At the mention of this request, I couldn't help but think of the first time, that is, the first three-way meeting after the outbreak of the monster tide.
After the three parties gathered, there was no discussion of common resistance to the enemy as I imagined.
The most discussed issue among the three parties is still the issue of national defense.
All three, including Baratheon, were afraid that they would be stabbed in the back during the battle against the monsters.
It can be said that mutual distrust is to the extreme.
"Actually, I'm not telling you Khetia, in fact, we have already held a tripartite meeting with the other two countries, but the result of this meeting... If you know what this meeting is about, I think you will give up the idea of tripartite cooperation as I did."
"Three-way talks? The result?"
"Mistrust and self-confidence are a matter of course for the tripartite talks to break up unhappily, and I think that now that the war on the front line is getting worse and worse, the trilateral talks will resume sooner or later, and then we may start to cooperate in the true sense of the word."
"Isn't there any possibility of negotiation until there is a matter of life and death?"
"Now it is a matter of life and death, it should be said that until the time of death, they will definitely not cooperate easily, you must know that the Targaryen said in the meeting: Outside the inside is safe! They said this at the tripartite talks, and I think his purpose was very obvious."
"Something like this... How so, and what's the benefit of doing so."
Khetia's incomprehension also illustrates her naivety.
It's also a good thing to be naïve, so that it is convenient for me to continue asking.
I smiled and shook my head.
"It's not beneficial, but they're just going to do it, and the reason for that is as I said before, it's a matter of trust, these three countries have never stopped fighting openly and secretly, and if there is any trust in such an environment, it's unrealistic."
"Why is this so, obviously they are all Chinese, they are all in the same country, the same race, people who speak the same language, why are they divided into three parts like this."
"It's not about the country, and you think, if the world is too peaceful, it won't be so interesting, it's fun to hurt each other in this kind of place, you don't feel anything incredible, this world is like this, and our world will only reflect the value of human beings when there are contradictions."
"But why is it that in this situation, we are not willing to put aside our prejudices and work together, as long as we are united, we can definitely defeat the monsters."
This is the second time I've heard this from her, and I'm really a little helpless if I say this kind of naivety.
Compared with what she said before, what she is saying now is undoubtedly wrong.
Is it useless to say so much?
No, maybe she just needs time to digest.
Let's look forward to her changes here.
And having said that, it has also changed to the main topic.
I nodded in agreement with Khetia's words.
"That's right, as long as the three of us are united, monsters or something can definitely be easily defeated, but... We'd love to work together too, but — what I'm going to say to you, Khetia, don't tell the third person."
"Understood."
"Actually, we have received news that a special group of personnel will come to disrupt the relationship between the three kingdoms."
"Destroying relations between countries?"
"I also told you before, the front is very tense now, and it is possible to restart the tripartite talks at any time, but this meeting will definitely hurt the interests of some people, you must know that this world is some people, who will prioritize themselves over the country and the world, and most of the assassination plans this time are also related to this type of people."
If she's counting on this thing, it's not bad to use it as bait.
And I didn't lie to her, the three-way talks have been preparing to reopen.
"Major May... Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"
"That's right, I want you to pay attention to the high-ranking official we protect, I suspect there is something wrong with him."
"Understood!"
"Also, if you notice anything strange, you can report it to me as soon as possible."
"Understood!"
Khetia nodded, and I patted her on the shoulder in satisfaction.
The expression is still in place.
It should look very satisfied, but it just looks satisfied.
After talking for so long, she didn't give me any practical and useful information.
Looks like it's another waste of time today.
But there's no way around it, forget it, it's not nothing, at least I know a little bit of useful information.
After I finished politely, I ran to the front of the feast.
It's not okay to just drink and not eat.
