"Dang——ding——"
The sound of the piano, which has no beauty at all, came from the rehabilitation training room.
Occasionally, a man's angry roar and miserable cry can be heard.
"Why don't you come over and say hello?"
Outside the gate of Plant Rehabilitation Center, Kruse asked as he looked at the struggling man inside.
"No, there will be a chance in the future."
Noel looked at Nigel's painful expression and turned around and left.
At this time, let him vent alone.
Thanks to Plant's full treatment, Nigel has woken up from the bed.
But because his waist was severely damaged, his legs had almost lost the ability to stand.
Even his hands, which he was once proud of, could no longer play music as flexibly as they once did, and he could not even take care of himself even with the most basic tasks of eating.
For a person who regards the piano as more important than life--perhaps sleeping forever is more suitable for him.
Walk through peaceful streets.
Looking at the laughing crowd, Noel couldn't help but feel out of place. He was clearly standing here, standing in this world, but he had no sense of identity or integration.
It was as if I and them were in two completely different worlds.
"Does this world feel strange to you?"
Cruze's eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and he stood next to Noel and asked.
Noel's expression was slightly stagnant when he heard this, and he looked at Cruze with a slightly complicated expression.
Kruse seemed not to notice Noel's sight, and just said to himself: "For them, this is a world full of hope, full of future, full of light! It is filled with the truth, goodness and beauty of human beings, and it is full of... All the good in the world.”
"The warm sunshine, the peaceful atmosphere, the paradise of laughter--"
At this moment, Noel seemed to see in Cruze a yearning for light, a desire for truth, goodness and beauty, as well as his extravagant hope for all the good things in the world, and his beautiful vision for the future.
"Then why did you choose to destroy it?"
However, Noel laughed after he finished speaking. This was a very boring question.
"I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the sun. Yet the sunlight has made my desolation a newer desolation—"
Cruze's plain words pierced Noel's heart like sharp needles.
Noel's smile gradually solidified.
"Do you know what despair is?"
Cruze glanced at Noel's expression, looked at the prosperity in the distance and asked lightly.
Noel frowned slightly when he heard this, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.
“When hope is shattered it can be called despair, but that is the simplest form of despair, because hope can be rekindled.”
"But what if hope is rekindled and then ruthlessly extinguished?"
"It is a deeper despair, but it can still break free, because human beings are very resilient!"
“When the fire of hope cannot light up the way forward, when you welcome the future with full expectation, only to find that the future you should have has been ruthlessly extinguished, and even your entire life and even your existence are just a test subject. ——”
"At that time, despair was just a simple word, but you can still escape! Because humans believe in miracles!"
Kruse seemed to be recalling the past, and said in a daze: "Because you believe in miracles, you start to struggle, shout, believe in miracles, and search for hope..."
"But how can you believe in something you have never owned?" Gu Yu
"You have had no future since you were born, but you stubbornly believe that you once had a future, and believe that you can have a future——"
“In the end, until you are pushed into the abyss by the future you believed in, the hope and miracle you embraced become the despair that knocks you down into the abyss!”
Kruse used the softest words to express the darkness in his heart.
There was no emotion in his tone, as if he was talking about someone else's business.
"So, are you complaining to me for comfort? Or do you want me to say a word not to deprive you of the future so that you can gain a sense of existence?"
Noel was a little irritable, but he was determined in his heart. He suppressed the irritability in his heart and looked at Cruze with a sneer, saying: "If that's the case, I'm really sorry. I can do everything, but I can't do anything." It’s comforting.”
"hehe--"
Kruse was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then a smile appeared on his face, and he said in a relaxed and joking tone: "I am not fragile to this point yet, and besides, I have found the meaning of my existence and accepted it. The presence."
"The meaning of existence - do you mean to destroy the world?"
Noel couldn't help laughing when he heard this. The meaning of this existence is really unique enough.
"Destroy the world? Why should I destroy the world? I never wanted to destroy the world."
Surprisingly, Kruse denied this.
"Then what is the meaning of what you just said?"
Noel looked at Cruze with some surprise. He found that Cruze really believed that he did not destroy the world, or that he denied that he had the idea of destroying the world!
"The meaning of my existence is no longer just me."
Kruse met Noel's gaze and said with a smile: "I am mankind's dream, mankind's wish, and mankind's retribution! Be stronger than others, go further than others, climb higher than others - competition, Jealousy and hatred are carried away by these things! Human beings will eventually be swallowed up by the darkness they created and go to destruction——"
"And I! I am the darkness created by human beings! This is my destiny, and it is also the path that human beings cannot turn back even if they know it! Therefore, it is not me who destroys the world, but human existence itself!"
"I am just a collection of human beings who represent human evil. I live in the world with human evil and move forward along the path expected by human beings. Therefore, the person who destroys the world is never me, but - human beings themselves!"
Listening to Cruze's neurotic remarks, Noel didn't know how to argue, or even if he could argue, there was no need to argue, because everything this guy said was true.
In other words, Kruse has confused and fused himself with this concept, and reconstructed a 'perfect' self, a perfect self that implements everything in the name of humanity.
So he won't feel any guilt.
Suddenly, Noel had an idea and asked with a smile: "Who can understand what you are saying?"
Kruse's expression froze slightly when he heard this, and it was obvious that Noel's answer was somewhat beyond his expectation.
But after a slight silence, Kruse said with a smile: "I don't know about other people, but if it's you - I believe you will understand."
"What do you mean?"
After hearing this, Noel's smile suddenly froze on his face.
What do you mean I will understand sooner or later?
"Do you know why Durandal and I value you so much?"
"Why?"
"In addition to the specialness of your body, it is also because you are essentially the same kind of people as us. If you have a chance, you can go to Mendel and take a look. Some places there are relatively well preserved."
After speaking, Kruse patted Noel on the shoulder, turned around and sat in the car, and said to Noel with a solemn expression: "I really look forward to the day when you know the truth."
Noel looked at Cruze's leaving back, a look of solemnity and uneasiness flashed in his eyes.
Mendel————How many things are there that I don’t know——
Am I the same as Kruse——
