I’m Really Not The Demon God’s Lackey

Chapter 42: -Do you understand it?

Lin Jie was very satisfied with his thought-provoking opening remarks.

The plan for a day lies in the morning.

Just as the beginning of a composition often requires an example or a famous quote to elicit one's own point of view.

On such a beautiful morning with guests coming up early, it would be great to come to a classic and warning fable as the beginning of today's business day.

That's right, he just told Lao Wang on purpose.

Empty-nest elderly people like Lao Wang should be more vigilant and careful in daily life.

Before he opened the door today, Lao Wang came over.

He sets the alarm clock at 6:30 every day. He wakes up at 7 to open the door for business. Now there are still ten minutes to leave the door. The sky outside is no different from the big night, and it's black.

The place where Lao Wang lives is quite far away. Judging from the information revealed in the past conversations, it would take about an hour to travel.

Now this dim sky, plus so much water, slippery roads, thunder and lightning, and strong winds.

In such terrible weather, Old Wang ran so far alone in the morning. If there was an accident on the road, he might not even know anyone and disappeared into the heavy rain silently.

This is not Lin Jie's worries.

The collapse of the alley wall was reported on TV before, and it was not far from here. It can be seen that it is indeed dangerous outside.

An old man of this age, or a frail disabled person, is running around outside. It sounds more Chinese. Isn't this a lantern in the hut?

Oh, it's really worrying.

At this moment, Wilde felt like a thunder flashed in his heart.

His hand holding the water cup trembled slightly, and after forcibly restrained, he said: "The farmer is not wrong, he is just out of his own kindness, and the snake is not wrong, it just obeyed his instinct."

Lin Jie walked to sit behind the counter and said, "A good idea, sensible, neutral and objective. In the final analysis, all this is really just a tragedy caused by coincidence. It seems that there is nothing worth refuting."

"But this story is not a fair one. The farmer paid his so-called kindness, but he died in the end. What do you think he would think before he died?"

Wilde was silent for a while and murmured, "I should regret it."

Lin Jie smiled and said, "Be confident and get rid of it. This is a people-oriented story, and you need to think from a human perspective."

"You think about it in another way, suppose you are this farmer, what would you think?"

"The farmer's greatest regret must be how he didn't understand the nature of this snake earlier, and why he had that extra blind kindness."

"There are so many bad guys in this world, but not all bad guys have a face. Some people will pretend to be, and they may be used by others. They look harmless or even very pitiful to use your feelings. To do bad things may be to you or to others."

"Don't believe it easily, don't deceive yourself, and don't be soft-hearted."

"He has no heart, how could he be moved by your enthusiasm? His smile to you is just happy because of your relaxed vigilance."

Sentences of words were deafening, as if they were loud.

The bookstore owner behind the counter was full of warning eyes.

Little by little, Wilde's expression became more and more complicated, more and more solemn, and more and more ashamed, until the phrase "he has no heart", his pupils shrank, his clenched fists were released, and the face under the mask appeared. A little self-deprecating smile.

Oh, can people live without heart?

Can't!

It turned out that Mr. Lin, after all... No, I still know.

"What I want to say, do you understand? Pharaoh."

Lin Jie folded his hands and his eyes were deep.

Wilde took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Understood."

But he still...

Lin Jie said gratifiedly: "Just understand."

He reached out and made another cup of tea for Wilde.

Lin Jie looked at Oscar Wilde's expression again, the look that had been reluctant and helpless since just now, as well as the sudden abnormality today.

There was a sudden movement in my heart.

Lao Wang ran out of his house in the morning despite the danger, and came to his broken bookstore, but it seems that he has no desire to borrow or buy books.

On the contrary, when I just had a conversation with him, his expression was more relieved and very relaxed.

In other words, the intention may have been to talk to him.

Teacher Lin, who has been solving psychological problems all year round, frowned, feeling that things are not simple.

First of all, Lao Wang returned the book not long ago, and thanked him with a dream catcher.

So it can't be academic trouble, but...life trouble.

A year-round alone

The widow and lonely old man must have a lot of troubles in life, but if a person lives for so long, he is more adapted to this environment, so the trivial things in general life must not be troublesome for him.

Then there is another big problem that plagues all lonely elderly people.

relative.

As far as Lin Jie knew, Lao Wang had no other relatives, only two children who treated him badly, both of whom were adopted.

There was no news from a part-time job, and he hadn't come back for several years.

The other was even more skinless and faceless. After finding his biological parents, he turned his face and refused to recognize him, making Lao Wang very uncomfortable every time he mentioned it.

Lin Jie felt that in the second situation, it was basically impossible to return.

When I came back, Lao Wang couldn't be such a reaction. It was estimated that he would be black-faced, and there would not be room for telling stories like this.

Then it can only be the first one.

"Oh, I also want to say, about Charles..."

Lin Jie asked tentatively.

Wilde sighed: "Yes, you know, he's back."

Lin Jie nodded clearly. In this case, he would be familiar with the situation.

Many TV shows that rely on resolving neighbourhood disputes as a gimmick will discuss a problem, that is, the widows and lonely old people are divided up.

The old people who had lived alone for many years suddenly became ill, and then a bunch of strange relatives came over.

Coupled with the attributes of having been unwilling to work outside for many years, suddenly came back, mostly for money.

"Although saying that may make you sad, I must keep you alert."

Lin Jie said, "Did he come back suddenly? Did he say that he had been working hard for so many years, missed you very much, and actually loved you very much, while treating you well and making you feel warm? In fact, Close to you, I want you to make some promises overtly and secretly."

That's right, "Charles" wanted him to teach him the remaining spells.

As a cruel and tyrannical dark wizard, Wilde suddenly felt very depressed when facing the **** truth. Before he became a dark wizard, he was a person first.

"What you want is the relative who has good memories in your heart, but is it really him who is back now?" Lin Jie's eyes were deep and his tone was solemn: "Although it is a bit cruel to say that, it's like I said just now. ...Do you want to be that farmer? Do you want to give your feelings to a poisonous snake without feelings?"

Wilde was silent for a while, and sighed faintly: "I just want to accompany him more... I would rather deceive myself, but I still have to wake up in some dreams. He is no longer my Charles."

He raised his head and said, "Thank you, this is the second time you have given me important guidance! I know how to do it..." !
