In addition to psychology-related books, Shen Mian also picked up a book called "Crime Scene Investigation". This is the main reason why Gu Henzhi feels this way.
Shen Mian looked at the books on the table and noticed that Gu Henzhi's expression was a little subtle, and suddenly realized something.
"Do you have anything else to do later? Did I delay you?" Shen Mian asked aloud.
When she first saw these books, she suddenly wanted to hold the Buddha's feet temporarily. Anyway, she had nothing to do while waiting for Wei Duo, but she seemed to have forgotten that Gu Henzhi was still a student, even if He is still in the library, but he may not still be available later.
Gu Henzhi shook his head: "Nothing special. I'm here to prepare my speech. If you want to read these books, I can borrow them back first."
He didn't really come to Princeton to study. If he had what she needed, he could shorten the distance between them.
"Thank you." Shen Mian's eyebrows arched.
Gu Henzhi couldn't see the expression on her face, but he could hear the change in her tone.
So he tentatively said calmly: "Are you interested in interstellar police?"
Interstellar police?
what is that?
Shen Mian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the background of the game she was playing, "Interstellar Love Song", was itself a future world.
The interstellar police he said should mean the same thing as the police here...
"It's not really about interest." She said hesitantly, not knowing how to explain it for a moment.
"Is that related to the trouble you mentioned?"
Although this sentence is a question, Gu Henzhi can basically confirm this. He even suspected that she didn't intend to stay with him for a long time at the beginning, but only stopped him temporarily after seeing these books.
The contrast between her before and after is enough to explain something.
If he wants to get closer to the other party, he must strengthen his understanding of the other party.
"……Um."
Shen Mian was not surprised by Gu Henzhi's acumen. She had already experienced similar points in the previous entrance test.
"If it's a problem that one person can't figure out, maybe I can help."
Gu Henzhi's pleasant voice rang in Shen Mian's ears.
This surprised Shen Mian, but then she thought about it. Boyfriends come in handy at critical moments. But, deep down in her heart, she didn't feel that the game's setting for her boyfriend was flexible enough to help her solve her problem.
Even so, after thinking for two seconds, she thought that reviewing the matter might be helpful to her own thinking...
So, she spoke slowly: "Under what circumstances do you think the things people say and the things they do become very contradictory? We observe the tradition of making devout sacrifices to the gods every year. When something happens that requires the blessing of the gods, At that time, I subconsciously did not believe in the existence of ghosts and gods... Regarding the same thing, everyone will have two completely opposite opinions..."
In fact, what Shen Mian said was not very logical.
First, because they are in completely different environments, some things are not easy to explain. On the other hand, it was exactly what she was thinking just now. She actually didn't expect Gu Henzhi to really say anything.
Gu Henzhi on the other side, even though Shen Mian spoke very vaguely and didn't understand some things, he still gave his answer after thinking for a moment.
"Everyone's seemingly ordinary behavior is, in the final analysis, based on their own interests. Of course, this interest does not entirely refer to things like money and fame, but the reason that drives a person to do something."
His voice was gentle and steady, taking away the trace of anxiety hidden in Shen Mian's heart.
"For example, if a person wants to eat, then obtaining food is the benefit he can get, and the act of obtaining food is the method used for the ultimate goal..."
"For another example, the so-called ghosts and gods often come from a certain religion. Then, the reason why religious believers believe in this religion is probably for money, peace, hope, or spiritual comfort. People who truly believe in religion actually believe in it. They will not subconsciously doubt their beliefs unless they do so for some reason or for some other benefit."
There are many planets in the empire, and there are many believers of various religions among them.
The development of science and technology cannot completely solve people's doubts and thirst for knowledge, so at this time, religion becomes a way for people to explain the world. Even if he is a materialist, as the heir to the empire, he will give full respect to those planets that believe in religion.
Shen Mian listened quietly, thinking about something in her eyes.
She could understand what he said. She just wanted to know what the "interests" were behind those people.
"Actually, something happened the night before yesterday..."
She simply repeated what happened to her in the B&B, excluding some things that were difficult to explain: "So I'm thinking, since the landlady said that telling things can solve their troubles, I don't know. What happened to the writing on the wall, but the result is that they are still hiding something..."
She didn't know why. Maybe it was Gu Henzhi's words that made her gradually let go of her guard, or maybe his voice made her think about the problem more calmly. After she went over the matter, she thought about it again. The areas of confusion were stated.
After not hearing Gu Henzhi's reply for a long time, Shen Mian suddenly realized that she actually wanted to ask him what he thought!
Just when he was about to say something else, Gu Henzhi suddenly spoke:
"Why do you think these are the same thing?"
Shen Mian was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"
"Think about it from another perspective. Sometimes you may feel that something is very complicated, and it may be because different things are connected together. If you find a way to unravel it, maybe in addition to the inevitable causal relationship, there are also There will be some kind of coincidence. In this world, not every thing that can be connected together has a causal relationship."
Gu Henzhi, who heard Shen Mian's troubles, softened his voice a little: "Think of things simpler, and you may gain unexpected results."
Shen Mian looked startled, and a certain thread in his mind seemed to have been suddenly touched.
Yes, if it's too complicated to mix together, just separate things.
She suddenly seemed to have thought of something. She minimized the game and opened the memo at the same time. There was a hint of excitement in her voice: "I think I may know what to do. I love you~ By the way, lend me those books." Go back, you are the best!"
At this moment, Shen Mian never thought that someone on the other side would suddenly turn into a stone sculpture because of something she said.
She... what she just said...
It’s so unreserved for a girl! But she doesn't seem to be a reserved person, but...
Is she...acting like a baby?
Gu Henzhi, who was standing there, unconsciously looked at the window next to him, and the slightly red tips of his ears were reflected in the glass.
I have something to do today, so I will update one chapter for the time being. I will try to keep it to 4 in the future~
