Chapter 168 Iron House
Use people as a mirror to correct your clothes.
Doctor Willy once keenly captured some unusual things under Lin En's gentle and intelligent appearance. He thought that Lin En was the same kind as himself, and there was something terrifying like the abyss hidden in his heart, but he was just restraining it. In fact, Willy was not wrong, but he did not see it deeply enough.
What can keep Lin En restrained is not desire, but ideal.
If Lin En is determined to set off a storm, many people will definitely die, so he restrained his impulse and became a person who is responsible for himself and others. This world is like a blank sheet of paper. You can have fun with any doctrine. Of course, Lin En is eager to try, but thinking with a responsible attitude, he must not be done after having fun. He must leave something for this world to continue.
Of course, it can be a lesson (theory of superior race plus, other races are scum, flying). It can also be progress (social organization adapts to productivity, who can better represent the direction of human civilization, red flag world).
The above two situations are the two possibilities when Lin En completely lets go.
The first is revenge on the world, and the second is to change the world.
Fortunately, there has never been an environment that can make him turn evil and take revenge on the world, so the first situation is unlikely to happen. It is easy to teach a lesson, but it is difficult to educate. This is like a parent who has no patience. When they encounter a problem with their children, they beat their children without thinking about it and call it a problem solved, but in fact it is not solved at all. Lin En wants to take the second situation, but this road is not so easy to take.
If an idealist does not take the evil path, then the road must be bumpy and rugged.
Lin En is an idealist for this era.
So when he looked at Qian Ning's mirror, he vaguely saw his own figure, instead of thinking that he was ugly and incompetent. This is why he decided to use the ability of [Nourisher].
In fact, it is also Lin En's venting of resentment, some to Qian Ning, some to himself, and to the whole world.
When the active and proliferating spiritual fluctuations dispersed, Qian Ning's body instinctively twitched twice. Obviously, the pain from the knife cutting and hammering in his body before made him remember it deeply.
There is no escape from the small cell.
Lin En gritted his teeth and put on the Active Proliferation on the rapidly numb Qian Ning. This time the result was a little unexpected.
"What kind of ability is this?" Qian Ning curled up in the dark and touched his head, looking very surprised, and there was no trace of the previous rolling on the ground and looking in pain.
"Are you okay?"
This was the first time that Lin En used the power of [Nourisher] on someone other than himself. Although it was very weak, the active spirituality told him that he and Qian Ning seemed to have some kind of connection before.
"I'm fine, better than ever after the operation." Qian Ning's lifeless look disappeared, and his eyes fell directly on Lin En, and this kind of sight seemed to be mixed with a little weird desire.
This made Lin En uncomfortable.
The intuitive physiological reaction was that a coolness slipped under the shirt, and goose bumps emerged one after another.
"Mr. Lin, you are different. I found that I was wrong... If it were you, maybe you could solve all the problems in the downtown area." Qian Ning, who got up from the ground, looked at Lin infatuatedly. His expression was even a little humble, which undoubtedly made the little gentleman feel even more disgusted.
"I have the ability, haha, I have the ability, but..."
Lin laughed dryly and found that he could not find any excuses to Qian Ning. It is easy to deceive others but difficult to deceive yourself.
After a long time, Lin sighed.
"But I am not brave enough."
Looking at Qian Ning standing in the shadow corner, Lin En, who was always in the brightest place in the cell, subconsciously stretched out his hand to him. However, he found that his hand was no different from the darkness. There was no big difference between himself and Qian Ning after leaving this layer of light.
This scene made Lin En feel like a fishbone stuck in his throat.
Qian Ning heard the struggle in the words of the respectable gentleman in front of him. He did not say anything, but just looked at Lin En silently with the eyes of a pioneer, as if blessing and expecting.

“This is the fault of the times. Why should an ordinary person pay for it?”
Standing outside the small single room, Lin En couldn’t help but hit the stone wall with his fist, scratching his hand a little. The recent series of events have made him emotionally fluctuating a bit, and these things are all things he has no way to solve, and the source of the incident is still in the ruling class.
The weirdness of the Lower City has far exceeded Lin En’s expectations. To be honest, if it weren’t for Ye Funi, he would have thought about how to get out of the investigation, or just fish in the water.
After all, his original intention was just to go home.
But now Lin En has been distracted, and he was dragged into this world by all the shackles around him. Everything about what is brewing in the Lower City is like a blizzard that is about to blow, blowing the little gentleman cold all over, and feeling that he is stepping towards the most severe part of the natural disaster.
Palpitations, hesitation, uneasiness, hesitation.
These are twisted into a rope, twisted on Lin En’s will, and tested him all the time. For this time traveler from the lower reaches of history, while criticizing this world, it is inevitable to accept the test from the world.
In this hesitant state of mind, Lin En left the underground prison under the careful escort of the prison guards.
Finding Bill in the borrowed office, Lin En couldn't help but speak out and directly criticized Bill.
"Bill, suppose there is an airtight iron room, and outside is a freezing hell, and now there are only single-layered people sleeping in the room and the oxygen is gradually decreasing. I am standing outside with a natural warm coat. At this time, should I wake them up? Is it better to die in their sleep without knowing anything? Or let them freeze to death in the wind and snow? I think freezing to death is more cruel than leaving without pain in sleep. Do you think this is right?"
Lin En must find someone to say something, otherwise he will feel uncomfortable, and the only person he can find now is Mr. Bill. They are colleagues and comrades-in-arms, and they can talk in depth about many topics.
Bill was busy here and was stunned.
He was shocked by this question, because Lin En's question is not just a question, it can actually correspond to some dilemmas and helpless situations in today's society. No matter what you do, it is a wrong choice, and no matter who comes, they will be tested mentally.
Bill realized one thing.
The young gentleman, standing upright with a focused gaze and a serious expression, is fighting at this moment. He is fighting with something and does not stop for a moment.
