Chapter 27: The Theory of Monsters
"Aunt Long, I want to go. Get out of here. Fu Shaotian said lightly.
Aunt Long stopped what she was doing and looked at Fu Shaotian calmly, as if she was not surprised by what he said. After a long time, Aunt Long finally spoke, "Actually, most of the people who came here have had this idea before. Coming here to see something I hadn't seen before, this thing was so terrifying, so nothing, so powerful. It is understandable that many people will be afraid to have the idea of leaving. ”
"No, I didn't want to leave because I was scared. Fu Shaotian interrupted Aunt Long and said, "I am... I just don't know why the hell I'm here. ”
"Aunt Long, think about it, if it were you, you would have been dull for more than ten years, gagging with your friends all day long, playing games you like to play, discussing the most beautiful girl in the class, and silently pretending to be her in your heart. Finally, get a pet and watch it pester you every day. It's plain but it's beautiful, isn't it? At this time, one day you suddenly realize that the pet around you is actually a monster, it has its own mission, and it sacrificed itself for its owner. You watch the girl you like get hurt, you watch your pet sacrifice their lives, and that's when you realize that you're a monster too. I was told by others that I was actually a special cow and a savior-like existence. ”
"At first, I was a little excited, but I was a little pretentious and proud. Once you choose to be a monster and try to be a savior according to the script, you will find that you are a person in the first ten years, the most ordinary person. You begin to take a very different and unequivocal path. You will find that for the sake of that little bit of pretentiousness in your heart, for the fate that others say, the first ten years of your life are equivalent to living in vain. Life was like another world. There is no one to walk with you leisurely on the way out of school, and no one to discuss with you who the prettiest girl in the class is. Even you will never see her again, on the grounds that you will be in danger with her. What's even more is that this reason is true. At this time, will you have a little doubt in your heart?,Is it really good to be a monster?,I like to be a person.。 ”
"One last day, you lost control, out of control as a monster. You've hurt your mentor and friend, and she hasn't woken up yet. Then others start to be afraid of you, you are no longer a monster savior in the eyes of others, you are a monster, a monster that even your own people will hurt. At this time, as a monster, it is normal for you to suddenly miss the days when you were a human being, suddenly want to go back, and suddenly want to be an ordinary person, right?"
Everything Fu Shaotian said was from the bottom of his heart, he rarely confided anything, and he didn't know why he was willing to say this to Aunt Long. Maybe Aunt Long made him feel a little bit of his mother's feeling. He has never been loved by his mother.
Aunt Long has been listening to Fu Shaotian carefully and quietly, and her eyes have never left Fu Shaotian. Such a serious audience is really rare, especially since Fu Shaotian is now treated like a monster. Someone who can listen carefully to the monster's grievances may become a friend of the monster.
"You can understand what you said. In fact, there are many people here who have had similar or worse experiences to you. Some people are different from birth, and they can feel things that normal people can't. Obviously, his relatives had been told by adults that he was dead, but at the funeral, he could clearly see that the relatives were watching everyone at the coffin. Also walking on the main road, he may suddenly give way to something, which in the eyes of normal people there is nothing on the other side of him, he is giving way to the air. But in his eyes, he was politely making way for others. He clearly stands with others, but he is in two worlds. Can people from two worlds understand each other, unite and love each other and be good friends? ”
"In the eyes of ordinary people, such a child is almost a monster in your mouth. They have been treated as monsters since childhood, subjected to the kind of fearful, hateful gaze you would call them. You can't stand it now, not to mention that they were still children at the time. At this time, they will find out that they are not only monsters, but also other people who are also monsters. At this time, a bunch of monsters slowly gathered together, they understood each other, cherished each other, and they formed a collective. ”
"But there are still the majority of normal people in this world, and our cause is to destroy monsters, and just a small number of small monsters can't defeat big monsters. So normal people began to understand these little monsters, and began to become a collective with them, to become teammates, to become leaders and subordinates. It has become our current 6 hospitals. ”
"Many little monsters have fantasized about how nice it would be if they were an ordinary person, similar to what you think, or even more beautiful than you think. But they can only think about it. You're so much better than them, and you still have memories. Although sometimes it is painful to have memories, when you reach my age you will know that the more memories you have, the happier your old age will be. ”
"I understand that you are like now, the little monster wants to live an ordinary life as a normal person. But can you really go back? You've seen everything here, you know the real world, can you go back? Even if we brainwash you, you forget everything, even forget that you're a monster. But you just forgot about yourself, you yourself forgot that you were a monster but others didn't. The enemy did not. Now you are an ordinary person, and when your enemies come to attack you, you forget that you are a monster and that you can defend and counterattack. That's when you're going to die. At that time, it is easy for you to spill over with other people in the ordinary life you envision. As you said before, you like to discuss the prettiest girl in the class with your friends, the one you like in your heart, and the pet you like. You think about the pain in your heart the moment your pet leaves. When the enemy comes, you will experience that kind of pain once if there is no one around you who disappears, can you really stand it?"
"You're right that you're a monster, but you can be a monster who protects your friends, family, and loved ones. Be a righteous monster who can protect everyone. It's just like Ultraman, when I watch that kind of movie, I think it's two monsters fighting, it's just an ugly point and a handsome point. ”
Fu Shaotian was amused by Aunt Long's metaphor, and his previous sadness and anger slowly disappeared a lot, and the corners of his mouth had begun to rise slightly after hearing this metaphor.
"So, the 6th House is no longer a place where a bunch of madmen gather together to find their kind, and everyone has a common goal, which is to destroy the enemy. When those big monsters are destroyed, they can live as normal people. Everyone has one or two very important people in their hearts, and after seeing the cruel truth here, they always want to protect them. That's what you think, right? So everybody is fighting for important people, for getting back to ordinary people's lives. There are battles for aggression, there are battles for peace. So you're the same, it's right that you want to go back to the old days and be a normal person again, and all of us have that goal. But in order to achieve this goal, we should not run away, but we should fight, right? Escape, we will never be able to escape. ”
"And although you hurt your own people, you also proved that you are a terrible monster. Our enemies are also strong and terrible monsters. Now they may think of you as an outlier, but I believe that through your efforts, you will prove yourself and make everyone feel that you are the Ultraman in their hearts!" Aunt Long once again used Ultraman as a metaphor.
After saying this, Aunt Long didn't say anything more, she knew that Fu Shaotian needed to be quiet at this time, and needed space and time to think slowly. After quietly changing the medicine for Ji Keyin, she quietly opened the curtain and left quietly.
Fu Shaotian also watched all this silently, after Aunt Long left, he looked at the stars outside the window and fell into deep thought, he was thinking about what Aunt Long said just now.
Fu Shaotian just looked out the window and pondered, until the sky outside the window began to slowly whiten, and the bed beside him had a trace of movement.
