517. Empathy
The two kept walking out, and soon walked out of the underground base and walked out of the center of the nuclear bomb explosion back then.
Along the way, Yan Xiuze pondered the sentences, selected several main lines of the nuclear explosion incident in the inner city, and told Xiao Yinghua about this matter as it was...... Even Xiao Yinghua's mother, Ju Yiting herself, was involved in this kind of thing, and she also said it.
Regarding this old incident ten years ago, Xiao Yinghua was only six years old at the time, so it was inevitable that he would not be deeply touched...... But when she actually saw this ruin, after learning the inside story of some things, she felt something completely different......
Several times during this period, Xiao Yinghua clenched his fists and gritted his teeth...... Even her originally delicate face became distorted, so that Yan Xiuze had to stop and wait for her to recover.
It can be seen that Xiao Yinghua's heart is impactful.
But despite this, when Yan Xiuze basically finished saying everything he should say, it was difficult for Xiao Yinghua to say which of them was completely wrong.
It seems that the extremely simple and clear dualistic view of good and evil that I had pursued before suddenly became completely inapplicable here.
In her impression, Black Star, the leader of the Black Star Society's group of super-powered criminals, is naturally a heinous villain, and dropping nuclear bombs and wiping 500,000 innocent civilians from the world is naturally an evil act that exterminates humanity.
But if we use the "death toll" as a yardstick of the severity of the abuse, it is clear that if these virus carriers are left alive, more people will die in the end...... Even in the end, it is likely to affect the group of superpowers who would not otherwise be infected with the virus.
Even how Xiao Yinghua racked his brains, he didn't find a way to "get the best of both worlds" that could kill fewer people.
And even she always felt that she was the kindest mother in the world, and finally helped Black Star and them cover up the scene of this explosion and became the "accomplice" of this massacre, which made Xiao Yinghua even more unacceptable, how can a good person stand on the same front as a bad person?
So in the end, Xiao Yinghua seemed a little excited, a sixteen-year-old girl, for the first time, felt that the world seemed to be a little more complicated than she imagined.
No, maybe more than a little.
"Uncle Yan, where are we going next?" Xiao Yinghua asked dejectedly.
"Go home." Yan Xiuze replied softly: "You have been outside for so long, compared to Xiao Mo and Yiting, they should be very worried about you." ”
"Plus we've figured out the truth about the inner city of Black Star City, so naturally there's no need to stay here."
"As for the shapeshifter who is still on the run, just leave it to other super heroes, but it's an inconsequential trifle."
"It's a shapeshifter!" Xiao Yinghua corrected.
Yan Xiuze just replied softly: "Oh." ”
"Uncle Yan!"
Xiao Yinghua bit his lip tightly and stared at Yan Xiuze without saying a word.
"What? Anything else on your mind? ”
"Uncle Yan...... I think...... I want to ......"
"What do you want to do?" Yan Xiuze scratched his head.
"I want to ...... Tell the light about what happened here! Xiao Yinghua took a deep breath, and finally said what he had been holding back for a long time, and he couldn't stop saying it: "Although I still can't really understand what the results of making this matter public...... But...... But ......"
"That's 500,000 living people!"
"In the end, I can't think of any other solution, but I still think that these people shouldn't just die."
"Those who have contracted the virus...... Or people who happen to live in the same city as the infected person, and they haven't done anything wrong, have they? ”
"Of course, they are dead now, and people cannot be resurrected from death...... But at least, at least it shouldn't have been so quiet. ”
"So...... I want to at least bring out the news of their deaths. ”
Yan Xiuze was silent for a while, and nodded unexpectedly to Xiao Yinghua: "Yes." ”
"Huh?" Xiao Yinghua was slightly stunned: "I'...... I thought you were going to stop mine at least a little. ”
"Why should I stop you?" Yan Xiuze asked rhetorically.
"Because...... Because...... After all, this can have some bad consequences. Xiao Yinghua's voice gradually became smaller: "Ten years, it's been ten years...... The whole world doesn't know about it, but it doesn't seem to be happening, and most people are doing well, of course, maybe it's the same...... I don't know if it should be left as it is. ”
"Yes, a world that remains the same may be more stable." Yan Xiuze sighed: "But listening to you say this, I can understand the state of mind of Black Star when he left the earth back then." ”
"I won't stop you from making the truth about this matter public, since we can come here without any hindrance, it means that Black Star and they actually expected it, and even wanted to make this matter public through us."
"But the question is, what do you want to do?" Yan Xiuze asked rhetorically: "Or, what kind of result do you hope to get?" ”
Xiao Yinghua was stunned: "I haven't thought about this problem yet......"
"Then what if, I mean what if......" Yan Xiuze said slowly, "If the people of the world are not as indignant about this matter as you imagined...... Instead, it will support what Blackstar did back then. ”
"Or rather, most people may pretend to be indignant, but they don't really think he's done wrong......"
"How can you not think he's done wrong?"
"Because it's not the 'majority' who dies......"
Xiao Yinghua was obviously incomprehensible: "The alien spacecraft back then could have landed anywhere, what if it didn't land here, but in other cities?" You say there will be people who think that Black Star is doing the right thing, but what if the spaceship falls where they are, and they are the ones who are infected with the virus? ”
"They are not the ones who can be infected with the virus." Yan Xiuze sighed.
"What if?"
"Sakura-chan, then let me ask you a question." Yan Xiuze frowned and said, "If in another parallel world, the spaceship falls into another city as you said, and the person infected with the virus becomes someone else. ”
"Do you think the 500,000 people who should have died will also support Blackstar in dropping a nuclear bomb on what you say, 'another' city infected with the virus?"
