Chapter 18: Self-esteem

"On the contrary, I'm sure this person is the youkai we're looking for. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "I am very firm in every word, and it is precisely because of the undisguised appearance of the other party's monster that the great contrast with his human face makes me even more angry." It's disgusting to see someone pretending, and what's even more disgusting is that you know he's pretending but you can just turn a blind eye.

"Wouldn't that be great?" Xiao Zheng said.

I looked at him in disbelief.

"I said, wouldn't that be nice?" Xiao Zheng repeated what he had just said, as if he saw my expression of surprise just now.

"Isn't our job to seek the truth, because we think that you are a human being, so we don't hide it from you, but isn't this more convenient for our work?"

Maybe he had a point, but it wasn't enough to calm my anger. Maybe every youkai is like this, looking down on humans from above, mocking them.

"If you can't even accept that, don't stay here." Xiao Zheng looked at me, and I could see the seriousness in his eyes. What, what does it mean.

"It doesn't have to be a matter of effort to get the truth, you're looking for the truth about the monster. And I admit that there is no shortage of people among the yokai who despise the existence of human beings, and because of this, there are more and more cases of yokai killing. However, if you can't even bear this, it is better to leave here with your self-esteem as soon as possible. I can tell you unequivocally that there will never be less such things in the future, not once or twice, not more than ten or eight times. "This is the first time I feel Xiao Zheng's momentum, when the old monster is in full swing, it is really difficult to parry. What he said was very unpleasant, and I couldn't argue with it.

"If you don't think that's feasible, or think I'm trying to manipulate you, then I can send you to a relatively safe place and change your identity, although I don't guarantee your 100% safety, but if you're willing to keep a low profile, there will hardly be a monster who will find you to do bad things. So maybe you think that's better? ”

"Don't." I blurted out what about my parents and how I should deal with the past I was carrying. I can't just give up, I'm going to keep going.

"Then I hope that next time you can get your posture right, be sensible, I don't need an impulsive assistant. You should understand how many details are missed and how much evidence is missed when you are impulsive. Xiao Zheng's face returned to a ruffian smile, but I understood that I really shouldn't look at him superficially, although I don't know how many years he has lived, but I believe that I can be completely destroyed by my experience alone, and I can be completely suppressed by age. I think that if the monster can really live for hundreds of millions of years like in myths and legends, then Xiao Zheng must be an old goblin who is thousands of years old. As for the veracity of the question, at least for the time being, I can't ask.

Perhaps, in front of him, I am more cautious. I suddenly felt my own innocence. Some time ago, I was really confused by his lazy face, dispelled a certain amount of doubt and vigilance, and relaxed my vigilance, thinking that he was nothing more than that. And now......

But it's okay, it's not too late.

"This time I was too impulsive, I already knew the contempt that youkai had for humans. And I've experienced it many times, but I still can't get used to it. Now I have clearly reached an agreement with you, but I have not taken into account the problems that will arise at work, and I have not adjusted my mentality in time to face it rationally, so I will be easily provoked today. I thank you for this opportunity, and I promise there will never be a next time. "I apologize seriously, this time, it was me who overestimated my ability, I was too emotional.

In other words, I still take myself too seriously, telling myself early on that I can abandon everything for revenge and the truth, but I always forcibly maintain my ridiculous self-esteem as a human being, and in the end I can't do anything, I can't go on like this. I have never had one purpose, and so has one purpose in my life.

"I hope you remember what you said. Maybe you feel that this is very disrespectful to you and hurts your self-esteem. Or maybe you'll be more disgusted with the yokai and their duplicity. In fact, if I had been there, perhaps he would have disguised himself more decently, and you wouldn't even notice anything wrong with him, but what would we get then, is that the truth you want, no? I know you can't accept it calmly yet, but your sacrifice can be exchanged for the rest of the dead, the truth of the case, and even then you are still angry? At this time, Xiao Zheng's voice was softer than just now.

I couldn't help but care about what he said. Well said, rightly so, in a world where the strong are respected, how ridiculous my self-esteem and the anger that comes from being despised is.

Or, in other words, even my only resistance, in the eyes of the monster, is so ignorant of what to do.

However, Xiao Zheng is not wrong in one sentence, if this is the price I need to pay if I want to get the truth, then I must accept it and accept it calmly. Instead of receiving the truth and complaining at the same time. That's a shame.

I still hate youkai, angry at their play on humans, and feel the unfairness of the world because of their existence. However, now I must first learn to be indifferent, my heart has a ravine, although there are no thousands of ravines in my heart, but there is a pure land in an inch, a touch of obsession, I must learn to be calm for it.

Now, the path to the truth is in front of me, and the snake demon with a deep blood feud has found a way to find a trace, and I can't back down, and I can't lose this only opportunity.

Blindly emphasizing that it is difficult to control oneself is not self-esteem, and I do not need to be bound by this self-esteem, I have already chosen the path I should take, and now I should move forward calmly.

"Please give me a chance, this impulse will never be a second time, if you do it again, I will be at your disposal." I'm serious and serious. I've made up my mind, and I have to persevere.

Xiao Zheng glanced at me and didn't answer, it seemed that he had acquiesced.

I was finally able to continue my search for the truth, or hopefully, to avenge my parents. For the first time, I didn't think it was shameful to bow my head to a youkai. It's a shame to think too much of yourself when you don't have the ability, and even to the point of bouncing others.

I have to admit that I'm really not a capable person, at least weaker than these monsters.

And because of this, it can't be that kind of shameful existence.
