Chapter 166: What a miserable man
Number Five, the Quirk Alliance, continues to tell the story of his own quirks.
"Of course, dragging people into the water is extreme, I didn't really do it, and my current quirks are no longer just soaking in water."
Hearing Five's words, the man in the white coat seemed very interested, his eyes rolled a little, and he let out a "Oh? ~".
Before he could say the next words, Five's body was already shaking more violently, and water continued to drip out of his exposed skin, as if he remembered something terrible.
"My quirk now is that I am afraid of a person, and I am afraid of being alone in the shadows, and I tremble when I think of that evil ghost who seems to have crawled out of hell."
"Originally, I was just soaking in the water and enjoying the good time of being free, until a silver-haired, uh, silver-haired friend broke my comfort. A friend asked me to stalk someone, someone I didn't know. ”
"And then I did, except for the man I was going to follow, and he was restless, and he was here and there. As you know, my quirks are so bad that I need to stay in the water for long periods of time, so I have to swim all the way to follow the man. ”
"But every time I just swam to a place, that guy, that guy actually left again, in order to fulfill my friend's instructions, I can only chase that person's position all the way and continue to swim!"
When the fifth member said this, except for the man in the white coat, a voice sounded in the hearts of the others.
"It's miserable."
Abin even moved the backpack on his lap a little, leaning out with some curiosity to see if Number Five was crying.
Ignoring the sympathetic glances from others, Five continued to complain.
"Until, I finally found the person I was following, God forbid, this time he didn't leave that place in the first place. It's just that I saw in the shadows that the terrible side of that guy, especially the gaze cast at me, was terrible! ”
"Drowned" recalled that when he was in Dragonstone City, he saw Xia Ran carrying the body of a runaway person, slowly walking out of the gradually dispersing dark magnetic field, especially the guy seemed to be aware of his own peeping in the dark, that gaze full of endless anger, and glanced at him.
It was that emotionless glance, a glance without human breath, that made the "drowning man" feel like falling into the red lotus hell, the scorching flames burned him, and countless pairs of black and scorched hands grabbed him, preventing him from escaping and gasping.
It was that glance that made the "drowning man" realize that even if he became a runaway person, he was not in the same realm as that group of people at all.
Whether it was the silver-haired man who forcibly ordered him to follow others, or Xia Ran, he was like a demon crawling out of hell, and it was extremely terrifying.
"I just looked at the man, and from then on I fell into an atmosphere of fear and I never dared to stand alone in the shadows or by the wall. Even some time ago, I was hiding in the water and didn't even dare to stick my head out. It wasn't until later, when I learned of the existence of the Quirk Alliance, that I wanted to try my luck and see if I could get rid of this phobia. ”
"President? Phobias should also be counted in quirks.,I remember last Tuesday member just said,He suffers.。。。 ”
The man in the white coat reached out to stop what the "drowning man" was about to say next, because the mutual aid association has a rule that no other member can openly say other people's quirks and phobias except himself.
He clapped his hands, stood up, glanced around at the members who were looking at him, and smiled: "Okay, we've heard about Member Five's experience and his quirks and phobias, according to the convention, we should help him come up with ideas now, anything, please feel free to speak." ”
The Quirk Alliance Mutual Aid Society, a weekly conversation meeting, thunder can't move.
The maximum number of members is eight, and unless a member's quirks are improved or solved, there can be a new person to replace them, otherwise these eight people have always talked about their quirks and improvements every week.
The man in the white coat knows that this is the fourth batch of newcomers to join, and the first three batches of people have all received qualitative changes.
They, those who are still alive, should be happy by now.
The first person to raise her hand to speak was the woman in the black dress who made a teasing voice in the middle of the process, and she was the number one member.
The man in the white coat bowed slightly, signaling her to express her personal opinion.
"Well, Five, I have a question, do you want to fix your quirks, or do you have a phobia?"
Her words caused a small commotion, and the other members also felt that the fifth member did not express it clearly.
The "drowning man" flashed a fierce glint in his eyes, and he asked a little strangely: "Of course it's my phobia, I feel very happy to be soaked in the water, I don't need to change it at all, I just want to make myself no longer afraid of that person, and no longer afraid of hiding alone in the shadows." ”
Member No. 1 wanted to cover her mouth and snicker, but she found that she was wearing a mask on her face, and it was inconvenient for her to do this, so she had to let out a long series of crisp laughter like silver bells, nodded, and did not speak again.
At a distance of one position, Three suddenly raised his hand.
This is supposed to be an old man, and although he is also wearing a mask, the completely gray hair and the wrinkled skin on his arms are enough to speak.
His arms are very slender, he looks weak, and his skin is very loose, especially the age spots on his skin.
After getting the consent of the man in the white coat, member No. 3 coughed lightly, and when he spoke, he liked to keep gesturing with his hands in the air, which felt very funny and exaggerated.
"Personally, I think that you should face your fears head-on, and the best way to overcome your fears is to face them! So I suggest that you find the person you are afraid of, force yourself to face him, and if you are afraid, we members are obliged to help you do it. ”
"For example, we will help you find him, catch him, and let you stand boldly in front of him."
The members of the Quirk Alliance Mutual Aid Association should unconditionally help each other improve their quirks, which is also the rule printed on the leaflet.
No. 2, who had been bowing his head and not speaking, suddenly opened his mouth at this time to add, he did not raise his hand, nor did he get the consent of the man in the white coat, and it seemed that he had no habit of this at all.
"That's right, we can help you, and even, we can help you catch that person and let you kill him with your own hands, so that you have no worries at all."
Through the hollow hole in the mask, you can clearly see that when the second member says this, his eyes are flashing with a desire for blood, which is very fierce.
But his voice was low and calm, as if the idea had been said after deliberation, not like a joke.
None of the people sitting in this room looked like normal people, even if they heard the suggestion to kill someone, they didn't panic in the slightest, as if they were talking about what the weather was like today, everyday, relaxed.
Abin sighed inwardly, and he felt even more that he had the right idea after receiving the leaflet.
"It seems that I am not a normal person anymore."
For some reason, perhaps because he still has a conscience in his heart, he has never raised his hand to speak at a meeting, and he raised his hand tremblingly for the first time.
The man in the white coat glanced at him with interest, and he also had the impression in his heart that this little guy was speaking for the first time.
"That."
Abin was a little nervous, especially when all the members looked at him, and his palms were sweaty.
He tried to calm himself down, and made a sound like a mosquito chirping: "Well, I think there should be a gradual process in everything, like we should have Five look at the photos of the people he is afraid of, and then contact real people at the end." And I don't think it's advisable for member two to propose a way to kill that person, because what member five is afraid of is that person's eyes, which is a kind of self-imposed psychology, a hint of fear, even if he kills that person, his eyes should always remain in the heart of member five. ”
Abin's voice became smaller and smaller as he went to the back, so small that the other members had to lean their ears in his direction and try to hear them clearly.
The second member crossed his fingers at his chin, and his eyes stared at the eighth member unkindly, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
The other members, some nodded in agreement, and some half-leaned back in their chairs, without any movement.
As Abin finished speaking, none of the other members made any new comments.
The man in the white coat reached out and knocked on the table: "Okay, everyone, in response to the suggestions of the fifth member, we will talk about this first, thank you very much for your enthusiasm." But after all, as I said last week, the constitution of our mutual aid association is to first listen to each member's questions, and then put forward some personal opinions so that everyone has a spectrum in their hearts, and finally help implement them one by one. ”
"So next, Six, what about your story?"
