Chapter 158: Casto: There is an old Chinese saying

In a rare move, Keigo Masaki left his laboratory because his device detected a huge strange flash of light in the universe.

When Keigo Masaki walked to Castor's room, Castor was already waiting for Keigo Masaki inside.

Just when Casto was still thinking about making his identity bigger and stronger, Asuka Kazuma finally couldn't help but send an Ultra signature towards Earth.

β€˜#οΏ₯%… (((*)…&*#οΏ₯… οΌ‰*…&… (β•―β–”Dishβ–”)β•―'

"What does that mean?" Keigo Masaki, who was busy studying the Plasma Spark Tower and had never had time to study Ultra's signature, looked at the 'hieroglyphs' from the universe on the screen, and asked Kasto with some confusion, "Although I haven't learned this kind of writing yet, if I'm not mistaken. Asuka Kazuma's speech, which looks like a swear word? ”

"Well, is there a possibility, and that's swearing?" Casto looked at the words in the sky, the corners of his mouth twitched, "That guy started to urge us, you know his time is a little tight,

And he also said. If the Lightning Man continues to stay on Earth, it is likely that there will be a succession of supernatural events and monster events. ”

Speaking of the Lightning Man mutation, Casto was also a little helpless, the plan was very good, but it was too late.

"What is his claim?" When Keigo Masaki heard the monster incident, his brows furrowed unconsciously, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask, if it's really that hard, why not"

"Kill them?" Kasto looked at Keigo Masaki, and then thought for a while, "From my standpoint, it's not that I can't kill the Lightning Man, if the Lightning Man really starts attacking human civilization, then I will definitely do it before you, you can trust me, but. We shouldn't be the ones who take the initiative to attack. ”

"Even at the beginning, I only forcibly expelled the Lightning people, and did not kill them with my own hands." Castor replied seriously, "I may think I'm hypocritical, but that's the difference, I can't take the initiative to attack the Lightning, I don't know if it's worthy of the Warrior of Light's way of fighting, but that's my choice." ”

Keigo Masaki's brow furrowed even tighter, he couldn't understand why there was a real difference between active and passive, and if there was no difference, then such behavior meant that it was a waste of time.

Casto looked at Keigo Masaki, "There is an old Chinese saying. ”

"The one who knows the times is Junjie?" Keigo Masaki asked rhetorically.

Casto:

"Nope! It's a gentleman's kitchen. ”

Masaki Keigo was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Casto to suddenly say such an allusion.

This allusion is indeed not a niche, so Masaki Keigo actually knows the story.

This sentence comes from a famous saying of Mencius, 'A gentleman is also a beast, and he cannot bear to see his death when he sees his life; Hearing its voice, I can't bear to eat its meat: it is a gentleman who cooks far away. ’

In the traditional Chinese etiquette system, it is simply established as a code of conduct: 'A gentleman is far away from cooking, and everything with flesh and blood will be practiced.' ’

But it is precisely because Keigo Masaki knows this sentence that he understands that the sentence itself is regarded by some people as evidence of human hypocrisy.

The so-called "smell its voice, can't bear to eat its meat", is the old gentleman far away cooking, seeing the animal before being slaughtered struggle and wailing, moral people will feel pity, can't bear to start again, since I can't bear it, then stay away, but I pity you, it doesn't mean that others pity you, but I can only control myself.

On the surface, this sentence seems to say that the 'gentleman' is powerless to slaughter animals, but in fact, a very simple and easy-to-understand truth is placed in front of everyone, the so-called 'gentleman' also wants to eat meat.

The 'gentleman' just pretended to close his eyes, and he chose to ignore the killings that would inevitably happen in the real world.

Looking at Casto, Masaki Keigo vaguely felt that he understood what the other party meant, between those animals waiting to be slaughtered and the 'gentleman', in a sense, it was actually the same as the current situation of lightning people and human civilization.

As long as the Lightning Man does not attack the humans, the humans will not choose to destroy the Lightning People, but the best case scenario is to send the Lightning Man into the universe.

But what is the difference between sending the lightning man into the universe and the 'gentleman' closing his eyes and turning away from the slaughtering place?

It's just out of sight and out of mind.

"Lions eat wolves, wolves eat sheep, sheep eat grass, this is the instinct of survival, there is no difference between good and evil, people eat animals, this is also survival, there is no difference between good and evil." Casto suddenly spoke, "So the 'gentleman' doesn't have any trouble when he sees the food on the table, because it's just food after all.

But! Not being able to bear it doesn't mean not killing, and it doesn't mean killing or eating, because the food chain in nature is like this, and it has nothing to do with good and evil, so I don't think it's hypocritical. ”

Casto was also suspicious of his actions, but at best he was only suspicious, and he finally chose to use the method of expulsion, so that he could not be seen or disturbed.

There is still a passage that he did not say to Masaki Keigo, he didn't want his understanding to affect Masaki Keigo.

But what kind of person is Keigo Masaki, he just glanced at Casto, who wanted to speak and stopped, and understood that the other party still had something to say in his heart, that is, although it is natural for people to eat food, but people killing animals will be tested in their hearts.

Unlike food that has already been served, the nature of the animal is different when it is still alive.

When some people slaughter animals, it is impossible to care about the struggle and screams of animals, and some people will even feel happy and excited from the bottom of their hearts.

But when civilization has developed for a period of time, people will be more or less sad when slaughtering animals, and people will begin to be unbearable, which is a kind of compassion from the heart, a kind of kindness, a kind of kindness, even if they don't want to admit it, but this is also a manifestation of the progress of human civilization.

Keigo Masaki understands that although Castor has made his own choice, he has never denied that people like Dr. Mizuno are protective and sympathetic to the Lightning Man, because it is a proof of the existence of 'light' in the human heart.

"I can use 'Gentleman's Kitchen' to prove my heart." Castor looked at Keigo Masaki, "I know that this truth can't convince everyone to expel the Lightning Man, but this is the answer I chose myself, and I can have a clear conscience in the face of anyone's questioning, and I can complete my inner self-consistency by myself." ”

"But you! Keigo Masaki, you need to find the answer yourself, whether you choose to expel them, choose to eliminate, choose to do your best for them, or choose to ignore, you need to find your true inner thoughts, find the thoughts that are unified with your inner will. ”

The 'fallen master' frenzy brought by the universe next door suddenly made the matter of Asuka and Lightning Man a little hot.

Before the Ultra signature appeared, both the people of TPC and Keigo Masaki had forgotten about the Lightning Man, and they had forgotten that there was another person in the solar system who had been waiting for them.

Asuka Kazuma does still recognize his identity as a human, which is why he is willing to return to the solar system from the universe, but the real enemy of Asuka Kazuma is still the monsters in the universe, especially the strange light ball creatures with parasitic abilities.

The moment he received the light, Asuka knew that this strange ball of light creature would be his lifelong enemy.

In a previous conversation with Asuka, Castor learns who the enemy Asuka is facing, which is the Sfiya Sphere, a special creature that will become the main enemy of humanity in the future and exists in other universes.

From this, he also understood why in the original book, when monsters appeared on the earth, Asuka Kazuma did not return to the earth, but chose to continue to stay in the universe and fight.

It's not that you don't want to, but you can't.

The monsters on Earth are indeed dangerous, but the invaders in the universe are just as dangerous.

Although the danger on the earth is more intuitive, the danger in the universe also needs to be stopped, in the heart of Asuka Kazuma, this is the same thing, and this is the reason why Asuka Kazuma chose to stay in the universe after obtaining the light.

Because of this, Casto has never met with Asuka once before, except when he said goodbye to Asuka once.

So when Castor watched Asuka Kazuma give him some 'dirty' Ultra signatures, Casto was not surprised at all, he was sure that if it weren't for the fact that the Lightning Man was actually a civilization, Asuka Kazuma might even send all the Lightning People away directly, and then go directly to the depths of the universe.

Not long after Ott's signature appeared, the voice of Kazuma Asuka appeared in the minds of Sawai, Yoshioka, Minamihara, and others, and he began to urge TPC to carry out the previous plan.

Director Yoshioka anxiously came to the command room of the victory team, "Is it going to start?" However, our atmospheric environment modification technology has not yet been perfected, and now we can only improve on the basis of the original Martian system, which means that we can only build some thin atmospheres on Mars. ”

"Wait, has it already been decided?" Horii looked at Director Yoshioka excitedly, "Has the TPC top management decided to accept the Lightning Man?" ”

Yoshioka nodded, "Now it can be determined that the lightning people located in the ionosphere are actually essentially a civilized race composed of intelligent beings, although humans are not able to communicate with them now, but one day in the future, humans will be able to communicate with them, since this is the case, then under the premise of doing our best, we should accept them." ”

"But." Megumi Kurama frowned, she was obviously one of the people who knew about the high-level decision, "The transformation of Mars is expected to take a few years at the earliest."

"That's enough." Castor said, "The birds have the power to take them."

At this time, the picture of Director Sawai appeared on the big screen, "Why is that Asuka Kazuma in such a hurry?" Doesn't he care about the identity of an earthling? ”

"Uh, you ask me?" Casto asked rhetorically.

"You can get the atmospheric modification technology, and to be honest, I'm not sure if you're still a 'human'." Director Sawai said angrily.

"Director, I also picked it up by you!"

"Oh, you grew up eating 100 family meals!" Sawai said and was stunned for a moment, "Wait, too?" ”

Seeing that Sawai was still going to ask, Casto hurriedly said, "Wait, I remember, Asuka Kazuma told me that there is a powerful parasitic creature in the universe, and after this creature is combined with other life forms, to be precise, after devouring and parasitic them, it will become a powerful monster, and Asuka Kazuma has actually been fighting this kind of monster in the universe." ”

"Parasites?" Yoshioka frowned, "If that's the case, then Asuka Kazuma really can't stay in the solar system forever. ”

"But the atmospheric transformation can't be finished in a while, where is the lightning man going first?"

"I don't know where to go first, I just know that if Asuka and Horse don't return to the universe, then those parasites may rush into the earth, and what they like the most is the huge body of the lightning man after the mutation, after all, a hundred parasitic humans, it is impossible for a huge creature to be fifty meters high"

"Wait, you mean, the parasite will devour the monsters that the Lightning Man mutated into??? And they will also devour humanity?? ”

Casto was just about to speak, when he heard chaos around him, and Yoshioka shouted loudly, "Start the Blitzkrieg Migration Plan!" The people of the police department, get ready for action! Go to the designated place according to the plan and use the plane to guide the lightning man!! ”

"All the Victory Team has it!" Megumi Kuruma also began to give orders, "Lina, you are in charge of the test machine equipped with Max's power system, and the others will escort the Victory Feiyan, and our target is the Lightning Man mutant monster in the sky above the Pacific Ocean." ”

"Remember! This is not a battle order, what you have to do is to use the Max power system to bring that monster from Earth to the universe! ”

Casto took out his PDI and was about to start sending a message to Keigo Masaki to remind him that he could act, when suddenly, Nanyuan rushed in, "Wait!! Shall we prepare some gifts for Asuka Kazuma!! He represents the earth after all!! Also, all the satellites are ready and we plan to record this scene!!

Damn it!! Is it possible for our people to follow him to the universe?! There are such parasitic creatures in the universe, even if we can't meet them now, but shouldn't we be prepared first!? ”

"If nothing else, it's far away from us." Castor explained, "It's not time to pay attention to them, wait until the time comes"

"The time is ripe?" Nanyuan looked at Castor, "What is the sign that the time is ripe?" We're going to build and develop on Mars, is that time ripe? ”

"Wait, images of giant light lifeforms have been detected." Norui's voice interrupted Nanyuan's words, "I'll cut the screen over now." ”

The Delta space station, located in Earth's orbit, and the lunar base, were both photographed with a huge figure.

The giant is standing on the outside of the earth, guiding the outermost lightning man away from the earth with his light.

"This posture. Savior? Nanyuan muttered, "No! What about the HR department? The previous treatment was still too low, and I directly placed the family of Asuka Yima according to the highest standards, and sent someone to appease their emotions, forget it, I will go in person when the time comes. ”

"Casto, you're with you. Casto? ”

Nanyuan looked around, and Casto had long since disappeared.
