Chapter 14: For the sake of world peace, someone stopped working
It's a pity that although He Wen has a detached mind, he is an ordinary person after all, and he can't read a cat's intentions from a few eyes.
So, he still planned to follow his plan and spend a day that was not very different from usual.
He fried two eggs for himself and Jiang Sheng, and then took two more slices from a bag of toast and heated them up.
A simple "breakfast", placed at a time like one o'clock in the afternoon, is somewhat out of place.
In addition, judging from the results, it naturally does not meet Jiang Sheng's intentions.
Therefore, for the next four hours, Jiang Sheng kept wandering near the door, calling at He Wen every once in a while.
On the premise of not being noisy, they always remind each other that the "two" have arrangements to go out next.
However, once young people are engaged in work, they seem to sink completely into another world, completely ignoring the things around them.
So Jiang Sheng could only jump on the shoe cabinet helplessly, bored to drive away mosquitoes.
Since there is no way to make the young man procrastinate his work, he can only hope that he can finish the business at hand sooner.
Therefore, the black cat does not plan to let these annoying little things disturb people.
On a summer day, cicadas chirp outside the window.
The fan next to the bed creaked, and the bespectacled young man subconsciously muttered to himself, and the invisible mosquitoes occasionally flew through the house, and then the idle black cat would immediately chase them away.
Sometimes, many evocative summer days may pass quietly in such ordinary and inadvertent ways.
And the cicadas in those memories probably because of this, they will change from noisy to quiet.
From sweltering to refreshing.
……
"Ah, it's finally done."
Stretching tiredly, the young man sat cross-legged at his computer desk, rubbing his messy hair.
Then he took off the glasses off his face and wiped the lenses with his clothes.
There was a hint of bitter relief on his face.
In fact, so far, as long as it is not related to the novel, he has been able to barely complete it normally.
But as soon as he began to write his own book, He Wen would gradually push himself, and eventually force himself into a state of delirium.
The reason is actually not complicated, it is nothing more than that he desperately wants to write his own work.
It's pathological, he knows it well.
But what can be done, unless he gives up writing books, or stops paying attention to his work.
Otherwise, he simply can't change the status quo.
That's why right now, he feels both relieved and bitter. Even if the work is done, it is difficult to let go.
"Meow."
Seeing that He Wen had stopped being busy, Jiang Sheng immediately jumped on his table and called out "dissatisfied".
Then he ran to the door and turned around twice, as if urging him to hurry out.
Of course, this is not due to how eager the black cat is, but because the resentment on He Wen's neck has gradually condensed.
The host's "resentment" seems to also increase the activity of resentment.
Vaguely, Jiang Sheng should have guessed something.
The reason why Resentment chose He Wen is probably because he has long-term and stable negative emotions.
This guy, as long as he does his work, is like a different person, no matter how you look at it, he looks lifeless.
And since Jiang Sheng arrived, he has basically been writing all day long.
In that case, he will naturally not get any positive feedback in his heart, and he is simply the most ideal host of resentment.
Thinking about this clearly, Jiang Sheng's original conjecture was half overturned, and his resentment was probably not that he was afraid of the outside world.
All it needs is a constant "vitality" from young people.
And so it goes.
For the substance of "resentment", Jiang Sheng can be regarded as having a general understanding.
First of all, everything they do is undoubtedly to grow their size.
To do this, they should need to "eat" a lot of negative emotions. So they will, consciously or unconsciously, bring bad luck to the creatures around them.
And in doing so, they inspire widespread anxiety, resentment, and fear, as a breeding ground for their growth.
Or, they will also choose a suitable host, let the other person's life fall into the trough, and then attach to them for a long time, squeezing their value.
Therefore, the more these grievances grow, the greater the scope of their reach, and the greater the scope of their reach, the faster they grow.
Then it's a vicious circle.
Although Jiang Sheng at the moment, he still doesn't know what these grievances will become in the end.
But at the very least, it's definitely not a good thing.
As for me.
The only thing that is different from ordinary parasites is that I can absorb souls and see resentment.
So, can I really "eat" the grievances and control them?
After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Jiang Sheng's first thought was such a question.
It's not about individual heroism, it's just not wanting to see the tragedy of the group.
……
In short, regardless of the state of affairs after that.
What Jiang Sheng has to do now is to alleviate the anxiety of young people.
So it can't let the youth continue to work endlessly. At least it needs to make the other party change a little, otherwise the devil knows if there will be other grievances coming to the door after it takes away this wisp of resentment.
As for whether there are natural enemies of resentment, and whether the parasitic individuals have the means to expel them, such tedious questions can only be confirmed later.
"Okay, okay, I see."
Looking at the black cat's "can't wait" look, He Wenyou smiled weakly, but his tone was still gentle and kind.
"Do you just want to go out like that, then why did you stay in my window for the last two days?"
As he spoke, he stood up from his seat while wearing his glasses.
At the same time, he reached out and picked up a hat that was placed on the bedside table.
It's five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun is long gone.
The reason why the young man wore a hat was simply because he hadn't washed his hair for two days, and he could look cleaner with a hat.
"Meow."
Jiang Sheng seemed to respond to the young man's question, but he didn't seem to answer at all.
In short, as a cat, it has done its "duty".
He Wen didn't ask anything more, he just remembered, and the food in the refrigerator seemed to be almost finished.
This time I was able to go and buy a little more.
Thinking so, he nodded, and he hugged Jiang Sheng into his former pet backpack.
After that, he walked out of the house with a bag and a bag of garbage.
Life is like a human habit, and it is usually very difficult to change.
Unless there's something particularly difficult that unreasonably intrudes into your life.
If that's the case, then by the time you react, you've probably been changed.
