Under the cover of night, a warm light was lit in a certain dark room.

A young man in a dark blue suit and a red and gold tie was busy with something, his hair hanging down from the sides of his cheeks and neatly parted in the middle, and the light reflected on his face with the characteristic soft lines of women, adding a touch of unreality like an oil painting.

Slowly tying the apron, Wen Yifan took out a basin of water from under the cupboard, thought about it, and dropped a few drops of clear oil into it.

"It's common sense that the combination of clear oil and clean water can spit out all the mud in the belly of the loach," he said suddenly, "It seems that today's game is going well." ”

"That's true," Wen Qingyu took off his black wig, revealing a head of white hair, "Teacher, this is going to ...... Do loaches? ”

"It's just a whim," Wen Yifan chuckled, "I want to try it, add a little wolfberry, star anise, cinnamon and other ingredients to it, and add bacon, accompanied by pepper and salt, what kind of taste will it be." ”

Picking up a bowl of loaches, he slowly poured it into the basin and took out a piece of tofu.

"Teacher, this is what to do...... Loach tofu soup? Wen Qingyu came over curiously.

"yes, that's an interesting dish, isn't it?" Wen Yifan smiled, put the casserole on the stove, lit a slight fire, and then put the tofu that had already been torn into irregular pieces into the pot.

"Is this really going to work?" Wen Qingyu asked.

"Whether it's successful or not, try it and always know, after all, it's the first time I've made this dish." Wen Yifan picked up the loach that had already spit out the filth in his abdomen, added it and a series of ingredients such as bacon to the pot, and covered the pot.

"Let's see the effect, I hope it can be successful," Wen Yifan smiled, "The loach likes the cold, put cold water and ingredients in the pot, heat it slowly, as the temperature rises, the loach will feel uncomfortable, so it will go to the cold place - tofu to get into, and the loach tofu soup will also come." ”

"Did the teacher suddenly come to me with such inspiration?" Wen Qingyu looked at the gradually boiling soup and asked.

"Guess what inspired me was." Wen Yifan smiled, propped up his cheek with one hand, and looked at her.

"I want to ...... Maybe it's some animal-friendly statement? Wen Qingyu thought for a long time before replying, "A remark about some kind of boring sympathy, accusing the chef of being inhumane, gave the teacher the idea of trying such dishes?" ”

"Deliberately making this dish for the sake of that kind of remark has a bit of an element of anger, and you know, what I hate the most is fighting with people, that kind of thing doesn't play any role except to add to the trouble," Wen Yifan chuckled, "However, this is an interesting point of view, is it humane?" ”

"Humanity is the moral bottom line that people set for themselves to abide by when they are in society. The term itself has a big premise, which is that it is only used between human societies, and not on the "mistreatment of living things"

"Torture is criticized primarily because the victim suffers intense physical or mental pain before death. In fact, however, these lower animals do have a stress response to strong mechanical stimuli from the outside world, but due to the lack of a cerebral cortex, they do not possess what humans call pain. In other words, the pain of the death process is actually very small. In fact, what we call compassion and kindness is from the perspective of human beings, and this is a kind of arrogance in itself. ”

"In this respect, such behaviour is nothing more than a boring sense of empathy, which in psychology is defined as 'a way of obtaining information about others' that makes people want to cut off their unpleasant signals, in short, it is just a delusion to ease one's psychological needs, rather than sympathy to help others through difficult times."

"Besides," Wen Yifan shook his fingers, "even if humanity includes sympathy for animals, then it has no binding meaning for me - I have never regarded myself as a 'human' in the narrow sense, that kind of thing, cannot restrain me." ”

"So, what did the teacher think of to make this pot of soup?" Wen Qingyu asked curiously.

"This point, you should have observed it when you entered the door, and it shouldn't be difficult to detect it if you reasoned with your own thoughts, but unfortunately, your regression is a bit rapid," Wen Yifan shook his head with a little headache, "The girl's unique carefulness, why did she leave you?" ”

"Master, don't be sarcastic about me, I will become lazy after a day of intrigue with others~" Wen Qingyu stuck out his tongue, "What the hell is it?" ”

"Go and see what's going on on my computer," Wen Yifan replied, "but it's better to hurry, the soup should be ready." ”

"'The psychopathic killer has a big doxxing, and the murderer's family environment is exposed!' Wen Qingyu suddenly realized, "Could it be that you say?" ”

"Yes, that so-called copycat, after his personal information was made public, public opinion got out of control, and along with the law I loved, he became an impulsive fool." Wen Yifan sighed softly, "I just talked to Liu Wenyu on the phone, and I learned that now the police station has become a mess, and the huge pressure of public opinion from the outside world constantly threatens them to close the case, and some police officers have expressed their unwillingness to protect the family of a murderer under the persuasion of their families...... Maybe it's really dominating the law. ”

"In these irrational voices, the truth will be buried forever," Wen Qingyu nodded, "Maybe this truth can be used in future actions." ”

"Indeed, in some cases, this is a good way to deal with the police or whatever, and it has a surprising effect. That's the first point I thought about," Wen Yifan nodded, "So, I thought of this dish." ”

"What do you think of when you look at this dish?" Wen Yifan slowly walked to the pot, "Let's put it intuitively, if the whole pot of soup is compared to the whole society, then these loaches are everyone in the society." ”

"When the cool water that represents comfort is gradually heated, people start to feel stressed, and panic makes them lose their senses, which is the premise." Wen Yifan gently lifted the lid of the pot and looked at the boiling soup, "So they began to escape, and began to look for catharsis objects to vent their various dissatisfaction with society in their lives, and this place is the Internet that everyone is familiar with, that is, tofu." ”

"People are constantly entering the network, trying to plunge their whole body into it and can't extricate themselves, but they don't know that under this seemingly comfortable environment, there are often hidden mysteries," gently scooping up a piece of cooked tofu, Wen Yifan carefully dug up the tofu with a soup spoon, and two loaches got into it, "In fact, when the comfortable environment is gradually replaced by external pressure, everyone has this kind of behavior, perceptual thinking occupies the brain, and they are not even willing to stop and think about a question - this comfort, Will it be a trap set by others? ”

"And it is because of this inferior nature that the loaches will rush to get into the tofu, just as I expected," Wen Yifan slowly turned off the fire, gently approached the mouth of the pot, smelled the smell, and then showed a satisfied smile, "And as a chef, I perfectly captured the psychology of all loaches, and based on this, I laid a trap for them that they couldn't refuse at all - a piece of tofu, so they got into it and stepped into my trap, Willingly turned into a delicious dish of mine. ”

"And I, as a chef, should be the one who will enjoy the fruits when everything is over?" Wen Yifan picked up two bowls of steaming loach tofu soup and put them on the dining table, "Drink it while it's hot, a delicacy can't be without diners, just like a beautiful drama can't do without an audience." ”

The rich aroma of the soup fills the room, and it turns out that he was right in his attempt – the hot soup is seasoned with a fragrance that is unique to medicinal herbs.

"The teacher's suspicion is that someone can manipulate the environment on the Internet?" Wen Qingyu scooped up a spoonful of thick soup, blew it lightly and drank it, the fragrance contained in the soup made him can't help but admire: "It's so fragrant!" ”

"Again, putting aside the phenomenon and looking at the essence, now everyone's eyes are focused on the police station itself, and they seem to have decided that the poor psychopath is the murderer, even if there is no evidence," Wen Yifan replied, "And who is the biggest beneficiary of the case now, I think you and I both know it." ”

"It's not a simple matter to manipulate the direction of the network," Wen Qingyu smiled, "But it's indeed a very doubtful thing, if it's true, then the controller's ability to control people's hearts should be very strong." ”

"It's no wonder that too many people are willing to be manipulated, and it is really strange to voluntarily become a pawn in the hands of others, putting a chain around their neck and being proud," Wen Yifan chuckled.

"Hehe, the teacher's thinking has been getting emotional lately! Do you like me? Wen Qingyu looked at Wen Yifan with a grin.

"Indeed, maybe it's the influence of a certain organization, and it's starting to become emotional, and if you describe it as emotional, it should be said to be nervous and excited!" Wen Yifan smiled, "After all, if there is an organization that knows my identity and is openly provocative, I will inevitably attack back." ”

"When people stand on a high place, when they stand in the sun, do they themselves become dark and invisible in the eyes of others?" Wen Qingyu slowly drank the whole bowl of soup, and then sighed with a smile:

"What a delicious dish!"
