"Boy, seeing you are so tired, what do you do?"

On the other hand, the barber aunt next to her, seeing that Lin Xin was very indifferent but still did not give up communicating with Lin Xin, she was very enthusiastic.

If he hadn't found out from the people around him that the barber in this barbershop was an old barber who had been in the business for more than 20 years, Lin Xin would have started to wonder if she was a spy and an undercover agent who had come to collect his information.

"Government work."

After thinking about it, Lin Xin reluctantly spoke again.

"Well, it's no wonder that the recently established federal government manages such a large area, so it's really normal to have a lot of work pressure."

"But you are an iron rice bowl, and you have a bright future."

"If the youngest son left in my family can also have an iron rice bowl, I should feel at ease in this life."

"..."

I don't know why, listening to the barber's aunt talking about some household trifles and gossip, Lin Xinlai's interest and long-lost curiosity were also aroused.

"Why are you always so attached to the iron rice bowl?"

"Isn't this normal? Young man, let me tell you that in your line of work, the national government is behind it. The income is guaranteed in drought and flood, and there will be no unemployment. It is very stable."

"Besides, this newly established government is said to be very capable... Anyway, as long as you work in a government department, your life will be fine."

"Then what do you think of the Human Federation Government?"

Lin Xin spoke again.

He tried many methods back and forth, promoting the danger of Honkai and the various information of the Human Federation Government to the entire human society, so that more people would realize the dangers of Honkai and the responsibility of the Human Federation.

But in reality, it has had little effect.

Most people have hostility or negative comments on the human federal government he established.

If it hadn't been for several rounds of major cleansing, and relying on strong military power, I am afraid that the stability would not be able to be suppressed at all.

"I don't know much about this. I heard that there are many negative comments, but this is not something that we elderly people should think about. Take good care of your own life, and my task of raising my youngest son will be completed."

"Besides, young man, don't you work for that government department? You should know more about this government."

"Why don't you tell me, an old man, after all, you still need half an hour to dye your hair."

Apply black oil to Lin Xin's hair, and then shine the warm light equipment over, the barber aunt asked as if looking for a topic.

"Human Federation Government..."

"The founder of this government is a complete fool!"

The door of the old barber shop was pushed open again.

A high school student who was not too tall walked in from outside.

He looks ordinary, just an ordinary student.

"Son, why are you back?"

"School is on holiday on Sunday, so I came back to take a look."

The high school student said bluntly, and then looked at Lin Xin. Although he didn't speak any more, it was clear from his expression that he was full of disdain for Lin Xin, an employee of the human federal government.

"Hey, you guys pay attention to being polite, interrupting others, yelling at others... Sorry, this is my youngest son. He has been naughty since he was a child, and he is still very rebellious now..."

The barber shop aunt quickly apologized.

"Heh, if my brother hadn't listened to Lin Xin's bullshit speech and joined that fire moth, how could he have died?!"

"You kid, don't say a few words."

Chapter 83: Sacrifice is meaningless!

"What's the matter? What I'm saying is the truth, and it's not something that can't be said... It's not an eastern country, so there's no reason to be asked to shut up if you say something!"

"Mom, you are just too afraid of things. People are good at being bullied, and Ma Shan is being ridden by others! If you can persuade brother more, he probably won't do such a stupid thing."

The tone of this high school student is very fierce, and he seems to be not the same character as the barber shop aunt.

But Lin Xin had already heard it.

Also remembered.

"I have a younger brother at home, I'll go first!"

He heard this sentence a year ago during the Fifth Great Crash, but he never heard it again.

Because the person who said this sentence is already dead, dying in the pain of inhaling an excessive amount of blood plague virus after injecting the potion containing the power of the Herrscher of Thunder.

But even though it has been a year since the fifth big collapse, these words still linger in Lin Xin's mind, and he can't forget them for a long time.

Now...but it came to my mind again in such a unique way.

"Child, you..."

Looking at the aunt in the barber shop who dyed her hair, and then at the immature high school student standing in front of the shop with an angry face, Lin Xin's long-lost emotion was touched again.

"Don't call me a child, I am almost an adult, and you are not much older than me."

"...Okay, then I'll call you a young man."

"Young man, do you know your brother? What do you think of your brother?"

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xin tried his best to bring a trace of gentle emotion into his cold tone.

"He's just a fool who read too much popular literature, he's nothing! Another pig would be smarter than him!"

Admiration and regret did not appear, but instead there was a meal of insults.

The living brother scolds the dead brother, and the protected person insults the protector...

Listening, Lin Xin frowned slightly.

Although he had envisioned this situation countless times and knew that this situation would be very common, after seeing it with his own eyes, that negative feeling still rose from the bottom of his heart.

"Popular literary and artistic works always praise the positive side of human beings, and will focus the camera around the hero, giving people the illusion that the hero is great."

"But what about the reality? The reality is that his contribution is worthless, and he is not a hero!"

"Only the living can define heroes, and the dead can only be defined by others!"

Lin Xin was slightly taken aback by the young man's words.

Yes, only the living can define a hero. Whether a dead person is a hero or not must be defined by the living... Why is this sentence so ironic and so reasonable?

"A hero fights on the front line, but his family is bullied behind. Is this a hero?"

"A hero is seriously injured in order to protect the majority, but is called a criminal by the majority. Is this a hero?"

"A hero sacrificed himself to protect important objects, but what he protected was directly squandered by politicians. Is this a hero?"

The boy was asking questions, and his voice was so loud that even Lin Xin felt it was deafening.

Literary works can only praise the brilliance of human beings, the positive and beautiful spirit of human beings, and praise that everyone can be a hero, and it is very honorable to be a hero.

But literary works are only literary works after all, they are not reality, nor can they speak for reality.

It can only be the sustenance of beautiful emotions in people's hearts, nothing more.

"In reality, sacrifice is a kind of boring self-impression. My stupid brother ruined his life just because of this ridiculous self-impression. He is not an idiot, so who is an idiot?"

"Reality... woo woo woo!"

The boy wanted to continue talking, but his mother covered his mouth.

"My child likes to watch animations and cartoons since he was a child, and he likes to learn the words of the characters in them. Now he just talks on the top, and he has no brains when talking..."

"Auntie, let the child continue talking."

Lin Xin waved his hand, he naturally knew why the barbershop aunt stopped her child from speaking.

It is nothing more than saying that he is a staff member of the human federal government.

In fact, he is indeed a staff member of the Human Federation Government, and still has certain influence and status in the Human Federation Government.

But he didn't care.

Or maybe he was touched by what the child in front of him said.

"Mom! I like watching cartoons and watching cartoons, but it's not the same thing at all."

"At least I know that reality is reality, and animation is animation. In reality, there will not be scenes where heroes are praised and admired by everyone in animation. It will only appear after a hero sacrifices, and countless people will mock his sacrifice!"

Are there few people who laugh at heroic sacrifices in reality?

Lin Xin, who has witnessed heroic sacrifices all the time, has the most say on this issue.

And his reply was - many, many!

According to long-term observation, he has found that there are many people who laugh at the sacrifice of heroes.

And the more the heroes die, the happier they are.

Because there is one less powerful hero, they can have one more living space, get more cakes, and get more benefits, without being killed by possible heroes.

Moreover, human beings have great forgetfulness. It only takes a few years for the dead to be forgotten, and those who are alive continue to indulge in low-level desires.

Finally, Lin Xin understood.

The real villains are not those who want to destroy the world, but those who base their happiness on the suffering of others.

And saving people has always been the intention of these people.

Sacrifice is to give up the world to those who are unwilling to sacrifice, allowing them to obtain the glory and benefits that originally belonged to heroes, and even take the hero's inheritance, wife and daughter as their own.

"So I won't sacrifice myself to save others like my brother, and I won't die with people who have different ideas!"

"Only those who survive are qualified to define who wins. As long as I am moral enough to sacrifice a thousand people to save my life, I can also distort it and let everyone recognize that it is a 'necessary sacrifice'!"

"I can't refute it. You are indeed right."

After a long silence, Lin Xin spoke.

"Are you interested in joining the Human Federation Government as a reserve officer?"

"Reserved officials? Heh! Forget it, the ghost knows what kind of virtue this so-called human federal government is."

The boy still put on a disdainful expression, but after that he thought about it seriously.

"Besides, with my virtue, no matter which organization I put it in, it would be disastrous. Regarding my own character, I still have a little self-knowledge."

"...Mom, give me the keys to the house. I'll go back and get my clothes. I'll be in school for the next two weeks."

"Oh, you child..."

Chapter 84: There is no lack of beautiful individuals among human beings

After taking the key from his mother, the high school student in front of him left.

"Oh... young man, my youngest son has such a personality, he is very stubborn, no matter how hard he tries to persuade him, he won't be able to persuade him."

"Young man, it's normal."

Lin Xindai said with some emotional fluctuations.

Although in the process of talking with the high school student just now, he could have come up with a lot of complex theories and philosophical concepts, as well as information beyond the reach of high school students, and smashed this aggressive young man in the face, making him stunned. speechless.

But he didn't say that.

Because his emotions that had been immersed for a long time were indeed touched.

"Auntie, can you tell me about your child?"

Observing the barber who dyed his hair through the mirror in front of him, Lin Xin said.

According to the high school student's description, Lin Xin already knew that the barber aunt in front of him had two children.

The largest of these joined the Flamemoths in the early years and was sacrificed in the Fifth Cronkai event.

And the younger child was the high school student Lin Xin met just now.

One voluntarily sacrifices his life for the continuation and future of human civilization, while the other despises anyone who dedicates himself, thinking that self-dedicaters are idiots.

The personalities of the two are completely different, and it is hard to imagine that they were born of the same mother.

"In my life, I have two sons. The eldest son joined an organization called Flaming Moths, and the younger son is the one just now."
