059 Our souls that have nowhere to rest
It took a long time for Lin Ye to answer me. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt that time, we had already walked the long bridge across the river. I never felt like time was passing so slowly as in that moment, as if my breath had been stretched N times longer.
Fortunately, Lin Ye finally opened his mouth to break the embarrassing silence. He put me down and said to me in a confused tone, "Ranran, you and I are ordinary people. Ordinary ordinary people. I understand you, but I don't agree with your actions at all. It's been so long since you've been out of school, I thought you had already understood this society. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Ye paused for a moment, and he muttered in his throat, as if he was thinking about how to say the next words. After hesitating for a long time, Lin Ye opened his mouth in great despair, his voice was full of disappointment and sadness, he said: "Being a hero has to pay a price, and ordinary people ......often can't afford it."
I stood on the sidewalk and looked at Lin Ye, and suddenly I felt that I was so small and lonely in this empty world. Is it for the sake of this that we should throw aside all the education we have received since childhood? Can we only watch us being bullied, and then wait for the day when God suddenly opens our eyes and gives the wicked a retribution?
However, Lin Ye's next sentence made me close my mouth that was ready to refute. He said, "Yes, I understand what you're trying to say. But before you say that, can you answer me a question? ”
As he spoke, Lin Ye was about to come and take my hand, but I turned sideways to avoid it. I nodded at him, indicating that I was open to his suggestion.
"If an old lady who has been knocked down on the road now, there are a lot of people around, but no one comes forward to help. At this moment, you see it, do you help, or don't you help? Lin Ye asked me.
"Of course. It must be helped! "I gave Lin Ye a blank look, what kind of problem is this. I'm a pedestrian walking, am I still afraid that the old lady will slander me and bump into her?
As if expecting me to answer like this, Lin Ye smiled slightly, did not refute, and then asked, "The old lady lost too much blood and fainted when she was hit, what should you do?" ”
"Send it to the hospital! What else can I do? Is it indifferent to watch? I glanced at Lin Ye and walked slowly towards the front.
Lin Ye was not annoyed when he received my eyes, and walked next to me to continue the topic just now: "When I arrived at the hospital, the old lady was going to be sent to the emergency department as soon as she saw the situation. What do you do? ”
"Send it to the emergency room! Save people to the end, send the Buddha to the west~" I still don't care.
"You have to pay the money for the emergency first, and you have to sign the family members......" Lin Ye reminded me.
"The old lady is not with her relatives. What else can I do? I can only sign and pay the money first!" I asked him a question and answered.
"Good! So here's the problem. Before the old lady went to the emergency room, you called the phone number of the old lady according to her family's phone number, let's assume for the time being that she brought the phone number of her family. At the time of the old lady's surgery, the family arrived. When I saw you, without saying a word, I twisted you to the police station and yelled that you knocked down the old lady......" Lin Ye assumed.
Before Lin Ye finished speaking, I shouted: "Neurotic, I'm a walker, how can I bump into it?"
"But at the hospital, can someone give you proof?" Lin Ye asked with a solemn face.
"Of course not!" I replied, my momentum was obviously three points weaker, but then I remembered that there must be monitoring of the people coming and going in that place: "Hey, it doesn't matter if no one testifies. There are also surveillance cameras! ”
"Unfortunately, that place is a blind spot for surveillance." Lin Ye was analyzing step by step.
"Where could it be so coincidental! You're talking nonsense!" I retorted angrily.
"Maybe it's just that coincident! What are you going to do?" Lin Ye wasn't ready to let me go, and continued to ask.
"What else can I do! I can only wait for the old lady to wake up and say a fair word to me!" I pouted dissatisfied.
"That's good. After a day, the old lady finally woke up. But she can't remember anything about how the accident happened......" Lin Ye advanced layer by layer.
"How is that possible! Don't you know how you got hit? "I resisted loudly.
"Possibly! Think about it, for example, an old lady suffering from Alzheimer's, or when she was walking with her back to the perpetrator and the accident happened suddenly, or she chose to remain silent against her will in order to reduce the burden on her family...... All of these situations can happen! Lin Ye calmly analyzed.
"Then ......" I was speechless. What else can you do if you really encounter such a situation? I can only consider myself unlucky.
"A lot of the older people are not in good health. This time, the medical expenses are added to the various examination costs, as well as the nutrition expenses and treatment expenses...... Do you think that even if we add up to less than 6,000 yuan a month, do we still have to work after such a toss? Lin Ye said with a long sigh.
I didn't do it, I just walked with my head down. There wasn't even a single stone on the road, and I walked steadily, but my heart became very empty.
"Then I'll ask you again, if an old lady who has been knocked down on the road now, everyone around is watching. Do you help, or don't you help? "Don't give me a chance to breathe, go around and around, Lin Ye's question is back to the starting point.
"I ......" After Lin Ye's interlocking analysis, I was already a little shaken. I could no longer blurt out the answer without hesitation as I did before. I need to think about the need to weigh the pros and cons.
I have to admit that Lin Ye was right. We are just ordinary people in the crowd, we have a strong sense of morality, and we hope to maintain the justice in our hearts, but the price behind this is something that ordinary people can't afford. The price, it is too heavy, so heavy that it tortures the selfish nature of our souls. This discovery left me feeling hopeless and disillusioned. It turns out that all along, I am not much nobler than those who stand by and watch. I was able to stand up, and a lot of the time, it was just because I didn't think rationally and calmly when I was impulsive. If I had started thinking about the consequences, I would probably have been one of those many bystanders! And those who are bystanders, they are not necessarily indifferent by nature. Perhaps, they were just thinking a little more about the possible consequences. We are all ordinary people struggling to survive in the mortal world, and our innate good nature is calmly discounted with the passage of time. Our noble nature has long since left us behind. All we have is the soul that is stained with fireworks and has nowhere to put it.
