Speaking of this, Valenti suddenly remembered something, and she looked at Chiba: "...Will it make you uncomfortable if I say this?"
"No, just keep talking."
"Some time ago, when I was sorting out Sean's files, I heard the conversation you secretly recorded - the conversation between him and Calvin in the corridor leading to the library. At that time, I suddenly understood why Xiao Enfei must be close to Jane.
"Actually, it doesn't have to be Jane. Whenever there is a newcomer in the base who comes from Short Ring Alley or Hecla Wasteland, and this newcomer looks relatively weak, he will be very attractive to Sean. The fundamental reason Only one thing: in this person, Sean was able to fully project the self he hated.
"The deer hunting case two years ago had a deeper impact on Sean than we thought, especially after he initially mastered some computer technology. He read most of the discussions at the time, whether it was private crusade or published in Various editorials in newspapers.
"Of course Sean prefers life in a livable land to the wasteland, but when he fantasizes about embracing a livable land, what he feels is very sharp hostility. He understands that he does not belong here, but he is extremely Desire to stay, this contradiction will make him suffer.
"He can disguise himself as a lonely genius now, and he can further transform himself into a superior person in the future. For this reason, he never even tells us the truth in the consulting room, but I guess that in his heart, he may He has never been relieved of the gap between himself and a livable place. Hekla's origin is a label that he can never get rid of.
"At this time, Jane appears. She looks so thin, so helpless, and comes from a place more notorious than Hecla. Of course Sean will be interested in her - because that is another self. "
The sun in the distance had completely set, and the sky turned into a dim blue like the deep sea. The sudden evening wind suddenly blew up Valenti's thick long hair. She quickly reached out to hold it, using the hair on her wrist. Hair ties tie long, voluminous hair into a bunch.
The night was getting colder, so she put away her long skirt and wrapped the skirt tightly around her calves.
Chiba didn't feel anything at all, whether it was the cool night breeze or Valenti's actions. She thought about Valenti's words for a long time, and she didn't look back until Valenti sneezed.
"Is it too cold here? Let's go down and find a place to sit and chat."
"No need," Valenti stretched out his hand to pull back the messy hair in front of his ears, "It's been a long time since I saw the whole of Tan Yi from such a high place... let's just stay here."
"...'another self', and then what?"
"From my personal observation, I think Sean transferred part of his self-attack onto Jane."
"How to say?"
"He hates the parts of himself that are related to Hekla, and self-loathing is painful, even more unbearable than the punishment of the base. Because it is easy to avoid the rules and regulations of the base, but it is always difficult for people to examine themselves. It exists all the time. As long as a person is awake for a moment, this kind of scrutiny exists for a moment. The moment it exists, the torture continues for a moment.
"And another reason I speculate has to do with this - when Jane shows up, it's like a walking mirror for Sean. In front of other people, Sean may feel comfortable playing who he wants to play. character, but in front of Jane, he can't do it, he has to worry about himself being penetrated all the time."
"Why? Jane can't read minds, how can she see through what he is thinking at a glance."
"It's very simple, because Jane's background is similar to his. Since he will use Hecla's code of conduct to deduce Jane's psychology and behavior, then conversely, in Sean's imagination, Jane will definitely behave in the short tone. Look at him according to Lane's code of conduct - if this is the case, then all his performances and disguises will be meaningless.
"So, I guess, Jane's existence is very complicated for him. He hates her and is afraid of her, but maybe he also sympathizes with her a little bit and even wants to protect her. But all these positive emotions have one The prerequisite for its establishment is that Jane surrenders to him."
"submission?"
"It is to turn Jane into a 'own person', a follower, or a container of emotions. Only when Jane is exhausted from torture and has no strength to struggle anymore, and then loses her own subjectivity, is she willing to surrender to Sean When he surrenders, he can avoid the danger of being stared at. I guess at that time, he will show kindness to Jane."
Valenti said softly, "Sean's methods were layered. At first, he just hacked into Jane's computer account to observe what she looked at every day; then there was the intimidation in the study room, he wanted to show Jane His own control and power over the environment; then, when he discovered that Liz and Turan seemed to be helping Jane use the rules of the base to protect herself, he warned her by irritating Jane that the rules of the base did not always stand in their way. On their side.
"To sum up, I think at this stage, Sean is trying to domesticate Jane in some relatively gentle ways. After all, he has a deeper understanding of the rules of the game in the base and is more familiar with the people here. Doing these things does not count. Difficult. Although, his actions do not seem to arouse Jane's fear at present, but make Jane's every counterattack more intense than the last one, but I think... it is also very dangerous. "
"Why?"
"Because Jane's trust in the base was very thin at the beginning." Valenti said softly, "Although she was able to express her needs very well as soon as she entered the base, she never explained these needs. On the other hand, She also deliberately concealed her true tendencies during psychological testing. She never took the initiative to make any friends except for roommates in the same dormitory - this was exactly the same as Sean and Calvin.
"Now, since Sean can use the bitter trick to put Jane at a disadvantage in the rules of the base, can he also find another way to isolate Jane from the girls in 403 in the future? Of course, this is It's impossible to happen when Liz is here, but Liz will change jobs soon. By then, will Jane still be able to calmly deal with Sean's various provocations?"
Chiba took a deep breath, frowned and looked at Valenti, "Then why do you assert that Sean will not cause trouble to Jane again? Willn't Liz still have to change jobs next month? If Sean does it again in the future? Waiting for an opportunity to retaliate——"
"I was about to say, I think Jane did a very good job in countering Sean's breakthrough this time." Valenti said with a smile, "I watched the confrontation between her and Sean in the underground corridor - those words were... Did you teach her what to say?”
