American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

"So, what do you think of this attitude of them?"

Clark pursed his lips, lowered his head, and said in a low voice, "There are a lot of sports students in the Metropolitan University, and about half of the track and field team are professional sports students."

"Their training is very hard, almost 365 days a year, the training intensity is very high, the duration is very long, and they are very prone to injury."

"Before, the senior who brought me into the club once told me that this road is not easy to walk, and it is almost sacrificing life for grades."

"Some people have been training hard for several years, but they can't participate in major events because of injuries, but after missing this time, they have no chance. They can only go back to their town to become a physical education teacher, or change careers. anything else."

"I'm not a sports student, and I don't have any professional sports training background, but it's very easy to run much better than them. The coach praises me as talented and a genius, but I always feel a sense of guilt. "

"Because I don't rely on hard work or even talent. I'm completely different from them. They think this is a very talented performance, but in fact, I have been trying to restrain my strength, I can do it. more than that."

"The way they looked at me was jealous, envious, and some anger and malice, but I can actually understand it. If I were replaced by them, I might not be able to control my mentality."

"You know what? The coach asked me to participate in the long-distance running competition. When I refused without thinking at the time, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at me."

"For them, the opportunity that required a lot of hard work and a lot of effort was rejected by me."

"But, I can't explain it, I can't fly into the air and tell everyone, 'Look, I'm a freak'..."

Clark's emotions became a little excited. Obviously, these words had been held in his heart for a long time, and he said like venting: "They don't know, I have encountered a lot of difficulties before, and I am not the kind of person who pretends to be aloof with nothing. man, but..."

Schiller looked at Clark with his eyes. After Clark noticed his eyes, his voice slowly disappeared, and then he looked into Schiller's eyes and waited for him to speak.

"I understand what you said." Schiller turned a page of the medical record, and then continued: "You are different from ordinary people and have abilities that surpass them. When you accidentally show this ability, you are in A very high position in the society of ordinary people."

"People in the same field have to work harder than you to get your position, and even they may not be able to do it for the rest of their lives. You think it's unfair to them."

"However, you are also aggrieved by their malice towards you, because this is beyond your control. Although you have abilities beyond ordinary people, you also have your own troubles. You feel that they will not understand you, but will only think that you are a A **** who doesn't know how to cherish talent."

"You have no way to speak out about this special ability with great fanfare, it may be to protect yourself, or it may be to protect your family, which causes the whole thing to fall into an infinite loop, and no one can get rid of this kind of thing. Get positive emotions out of it.”

Clark nodded, indicating that Schiller had summed it up correctly. He seemed to have a lot to say, but considering Schiller's identity, he decided to swallow those broken thoughts back into his stomach.

"Can I ask you a few questions?" Schiller said, looking Clark in the eyes.

Clark nodded, so Schiller asked:

"When you first discovered that you were beyond ordinary people's abilities, was your first reaction happy or frightened?"

"Frightened." Clark answered quickly, without hesitation, he said: "When I first found out that my strength was amazing, I was terrified and thought I had a terminal illness!"

"How old were you then?"

"Uh...I don't remember very well, but I should be less than ten years old? I think I found it when I was carrying haystacks to the warehouse with my father."

"Although your mind was immature at that time, it also shows that before that, you lived in a relatively simple human society environment."

"Yes, at that time, we didn't even have comics in our town. The only thing I read was the newspaper that was delivered once a week, and it only told about the things that happened in the metropolis."

"Did you feel ecstatic or triumphant the first time you used this power to profit?"

Clark tried to think about it for a while, then shook his head and said, "I remember, I should have helped my dad push his tractor out of the mud pit. I was a little happy, but not ecstatic at all."

Schiller didn't say anything, but continued to ask: "If you were sure that this ability would allow you to rule the world, would you do it?"

Clark shook his head, and he asked with some doubts: "Why do I want to rule the world?"

"Have you ever imagined using your special abilities to rule the world and gain the highest status, power and wealth?"

Clark thought about it carefully, he said: "My mother always told me that people who want to rule the world are bad guys. They drag many innocent people into war in order to realize their evil plans. I have nothing to do with such people. I like it, and I don’t want to be this kind of person.”

Schiller touched his forehead, he looked at some data recorded in the medical record book, sighed, and asked the last question:

"Do you think you are a **** who came to the world to do good things, or a good person who happens to have superpowers?"

"I..." Faced with this question, Clark hesitated.

The light of the table lamp shone on his side face, making his facial features appear more three-dimensional, and his eyes deeper.

"Well, these questions don't necessarily require you to give an answer. You have a long, long time to think slowly."

"In other words, thinking about these questions when you make every decision will help you establish a stable personality."

Schiller closed the medical record and said, "Psychotherapy is not that I ask you to answer, but the question itself is the answer I give, and it is an idea that I provide you."

"I like to encourage the patient to find answers in his own mind, rather than a mind that I impose on him."

"What about you, professor? If I asked you these questions, how would you answer them?" Clark quickly got to the point.

Schiller raised his eyebrows and seemed interested in Clark's reaction. He touched his chin and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite suitable for studying psychology."

After hearing this, Clark was finally in a better mood, he said: "I said before, I am still very interested in psychology, I think it is very interesting to observe other people's behavior and speculate their thoughts. ."

"So..." Clark looked at Schiller, wanting to hear his answer.

"The society we live in now is built by ordinary people. The reason why ordinary people build such a society is because of complicated historical reasons, but one of the reasons is that the individual's ability is not enough, and they need to cooperate with each other. Survive in savage times."

"As a result, in the process of building society, people get different social divisions of labor because of their different strengths."

"But to reverse this theory, it can also be seen that the human individual cannot be omnipotent, because the individual strength is weak, so it needs to be divided into different social divisions to improve efficiency and survive."

"If human beings could not eat or sleep, or be as powerful as you, fly at will, or have infinite wisdom, then every individual human being can adapt to any job, and survival is no longer a problem, then society It might be another way."

"You are not suitable for living in this society, because this society itself is constructed by those weaker than you, and all the structures here are within the scope of their imagination, and their imagination is based on above their own abilities."

"It's completely normal for you to feel uncomfortable, and if you let a person live in a wild animal society, you will definitely feel uncomfortable."

"If you live in a society made up of creatures more powerful than you, you feel justified in sacrificing certain qualities of yourself."

"For example, a disadvantaged group in society may be more willing to sacrifice his dream to do something more realistic, even though he doesn't like it."

"But your situation is reversed. All creatures in this society are weaker than you. When you are in a strong position, you will instinctively feel that this kind of sacrifice does not exist. Since I am so strong, then I will The choice is to have it all, but in reality, it doesn't work."

"Above the standard line, and below the standard line, it's the same, if you want to integrate into ordinary society, you always have to make sacrifices."

"So, I don't feel ecstatic when I use my special ability to gain an advantage, and the reason is that in the process of using this special ability, you are essentially putting yourself above the norm. , while you gain benefits, you must sacrifice something."

"The benefits obtained are obvious, but the sacrifices are not so easy to see, until finally the sand becomes a tower, and a very unsatisfactory result is obtained."

"So, every time I use this ability, I know clearly that it's an exchange, and I'm not proud of it."

"Zweig said that all the gifts of fate have already been priced in secret."

Clark said while thinking: "So...the advantage I have used in the long-distance running race, the price I paid is the change in the attitude of the people around me."

Clark frowned. "But I don't need an advantage in long-distance running, and I don't gain anything from it."

"That's because you are a person who doesn't want to be famous. Think about it, if you are a person who is chasing fame and fortune, you can become a world champion by just running around~www.NovelMTL.com~ Get both fame and fortune, and enjoy the audience in the auditorium. Cheers, isn't this the best gift for them?"

"That's right." Clark nodded, he thought about it again, and then continued: "So, before I use my superpowers to do something, I should think about the benefits I can get and the price I need to pay? "

"What do you want most?" Schiller asked another very philosophical question.

"I..." Clark hesitated, a question a little too broad for anyone, and said, "I don't know in the future, but for now, I want to go home and eat my mom's pie and my dad's pie. Chat, or help out on the farm, just relax.”

Clark can be said to know a little bit, and he went on to say: "Well... I can do it all now, like flying out of this window right now, and then flying home."

"No, no, I can't do this. I can't explain to the two weirdos just now how I disappeared. I feel that if they are staring at me, something bad might happen."

"Besides, the school has regulations. There may be a bed check tonight. I don't want to be recorded. Also, if my parents knew that I ran out of school, they would definitely be very angry."

Clark immediately shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's okay to go back later, anyway, the vacation is still long."

After he said these words, he thought for a while, and then said, "God, I feel like things have become clear."

"Originally, I struggled with this matter for a long time. I thought that the snow disaster was not my fault. It's okay to use my ability to go home for a while."

"Heaven Comes"

"But now that I think about it, compared with the consequences, I should bear with it for a while."
