Chapter 14 A Dialogue Between Two Civilized People

Rochard is a descendant of the Banya people, and it was a long time ago that his ancestors arrived in the Mizhou continent where the Mijian Kingdom is located.His father was a native of the United States. He has been in the manufacturing industry all his life. He is a standard blue-collar worker. Fortunately, he was not laid off because of the shrinking of the domestic manufacturing industry in the United States, and worked until retirement.

This was a very ordinary family in the United States at that time, far from being an elite class.But Rochard was the pride of his parents, and he was admitted to Hever University School of Medicine a year after graduating from college.In the United States, you cannot directly study medicine after high school graduation. You must first go through undergraduate general education and get a bachelor's degree before you can apply for the exam.

The medical school of Hever University has a four-year academic system. The admission rate is quite low and the tuition fee is very high. It is not easy to graduate smoothly.After graduating Rochard spent four years as a resident physician and then worked as a full-fledged specialist for another six years.

Rochard University majored in psychology as an undergraduate. At that time, he owed student loans, which his father helped him pay off before applying for medical school.But the tuition at Hever Medical School was too high, and he had to slowly repay his student loans after graduation.Ten years after Rochard graduated and started working, he has become a specialist attending physician, and he has finally paid off his student loan again.

He was 37 years old that year, married, and had two children, a boy and a girl. He also raised a dog at home and owned a house in the suburbs.No matter from which angle you look at it, he belongs to the elite class of the so-called middle class and has an enviable happy life, but he encountered a series of changes in this year.

The work of the specialist attending physician is very busy, at least in the hospital where Rochard works, and he has to be on duty frequently.Maybe that's why he neglected to care about his wife, who got involved with the baseball coach of the local school.

After Rochard found out, his wife filed for divorce and hired the best lawyer in the area.In the end, the judge awarded custody of the two children to the mother, along with the house and dog, and Rochard has the right to visit the two children and pays monthly maintenance.

Rochard moved into the motel with his personal belongings, while his wife's boyfriend, the baseball coach, moved into his old house.The two live together, but they are not married. According to the law, Rochard needs to continue to pay child support.

Hua Zhenxing couldn't help muttering to himself when he heard this: someone slept with his wife, lived in his house, and took care of his children, and he had to give them money every month.It took him 20 years of schooling, another [-] years of hard work, and then all of this... There is no worse life than this!

But there is something worse.This accident made Rochard physically and mentally exhausted, his mood became very low, and his mental state was also very poor.When this happens in Mijianguo, the usual advice you can give is to see a psychiatrist.

But it doesn't work if you read it. Rochard's undergraduate degree is psychology, which doesn't change the status quo.He often felt mentally exhausted and unable to concentrate at work, so he started using illegal drugs.

At first, Rochard didn't think of himself as a poisoner. He used sedative drugs that could stabilize his mood. His status as a doctor made it easy for him to get these things.However, the long-term use of such drugs will have more and more serious consequences. Once he failed to inject in time, the result was almost a medical accident, and then everything was exposed...

It was a scandal for the hospital, and it wasn't made public, but it spread throughout the industry.Rochard lost his job, no medical institution would hire him again, and he had to pay monthly child support.

Statutory alimony in Rochard's state is not based on income, but on the standard of living of the wife and children before the divorce.With no income, he couldn't afford child support, and he went bankrupt without incident. Of course, he couldn't afford to live in a motel. He became a homeless person living on the street. His daily life was to pick up junk and receive relief.

Hearing this, Hua Zhenxing was very sad.Rochard was born in a family of ordinary blue-collar workers. He was admitted to a medical school and became a specialist attending physician, which is enough to prove his hard work and excellence. From a personal point of view, he can be regarded as an elite among the elites, but he ended up on the street. Luthor in Luthor.

After living on the street, Rochard has given up on himself. He began to smoke other DU products, and he was just waiting to die.At this time, his father, who had not seen each other for three years, found him and first sent him to rehab.An old friend of my father used to work for Doctors Without Borders, and through this relationship, he was introduced to the port of Fesso.

That's Rochard's story.Speaking of this, the doctor said with emotion: "After I came to Port Fesso, I completely quit drugs. There are people who need me every day, and everyone respects me. It turns out that there is such a place in the world. You may think that I'm here to save people, and it's actually Fesuo Hong Kong who saved me - saved my life and my life."

Is it the place at Fesso that saved Rochard?That seems to make sense.Rochard is indeed very respected here. In the eyes of the locals, he is a big man from the United States, and he is even more popular than a doctor born and raised in Lili.But who would have thought that before he came to Fesuo port, he was a homeless man waiting to die with his mouth and poison?

Hua Zhenxing asked in a low voice, "Have you ever thought about how all this is caused? What is the most important part of changing your life and changing your life?"

Rochard was obviously still immersed in the past, and seemed to say to himself: "My ex-wife, she hired a good lawyer, really a very good lawyer!"

Hua Zhenxing was speechless for a while, and he couldn't continue to talk about it, and then asked, "How old are you this year?"

Rochard: "Forty."

Hua Zhenxing: "How long did you wander the streets before your father found you?"

Rochard: "About a year, he was looking for me for a few months, and he hired a private investigator for that."

Hua Zhenxing: "You said that you and your father hadn't seen each other for three years at that time, so let's forget about this year of wandering. Why haven't we met in the first two years?"

Rochard: "We don't usually see each other very often. I send him greeting cards during the holidays... That Christmas three years ago, my ex-wife and I visited my parents' house with the children."

Hua Zhenxing: "Do you only visit at Christmas? How many times have you met since you started working?"

Rochard: "Three times, two with ex-wife and children, after the birth of a son and a daughter."

According to Rochard's account, Huazhenhang has the most basic understanding that an ordinary blue-collar worker family has trained a top student who graduated from Harvard Medical School, and the father also helped the child pay off the student loan during the undergraduate period.After his son was on the streets, his father specially asked a private detective to find him, then sent him to detox, and then found a relationship and introduced him to overseas as a doctor.

If this is not the case, it will not be the turn of Fesuogang to "save" Dr. Luo.Dr. Luo has an enviable and good father. You must know that many children in Fesuo have no father at all.But in the ten years since Dr. Luo started working, he has only met his parents three times during Christmas.

Looking at Dr. Luo's appearance, he thought that he used to be normal and is normal now, but he was abnormal for a while.Hua Zhenxing didn't know what to say. Dr. Luo was an American, and he had never been taught by the three old men in the grocery store since he was a child.

Rochard is not stupid. Although Hua Zhenxing didn't say anything, he could taste it, and squinted his eyes slightly and said, "I know what you want to say, my father paid a lot for me, and I did ignore him. But you may not understand a real Mijian, whose cultural tradition is different from yours in the East."

Hua Zhenxing: "It's not something you don't understand. The situation is not that complicated. It's just whether you agree or not. Do you think that after saying this, you can feel at ease?"

Seeing that Rochard didn't answer, he thought for a while and then said, "Now that the Internet information is so developed, it's not that I don't understand the United States at all. At least not all American fathers can be like your father, and you are not as good as your father."

After all, he is a child, so the latter words could have been omitted. Although it was true, it was very disrespectful.Rochard pondered for a moment before speaking: "People often ignore people who have always cared about him, but tend to care about those who have not cared about him. This is called the threshold effect, which is a subconscious psychological phenomenon.

In principle, people who have been caring about you are equivalent to constant stimulation, and you need more intense stimulation to continue to feel satisfied.And those who haven't followed you, their attention will immediately bring you new satisfaction..."

Hua Zhenxing: "Well, this can also be called the cheapening effect, so what?"

Rochard: "No reason, I just studied psychology and knew there was such an effect."

Hua Zhenxing: "Then do you want to tell me about the Franklin effect? ​​People are more likely to have a good impression of those who have helped them, but tend to ignore those who have helped them. Well, old man Yang called it licking dogs. And the white-eyed wolf effect."

Rochard was surprised: "How do you understand this, did Yang teach you?"

Hua Zhenxing: "These things are not secret recipes. You can learn them and I can learn them."

As Rochard said, everyone needs to feel fulfilled and fulfilled.Hua Zhenxing's greatest hobby since he was a child is to understand the unknown. This is his achievement and satisfaction.There are only so many textbooks in elementary and middle schools, which are not enough for him to read, and he has already read them all three years ago.

Hua Zhenxing usually asks old man Yang for advice if he has any doubts.Old man Yang will basically discuss with him, and then recommend him to see which aspect of things.Today's network information is very developed, but if you want to understand the problem, you must not only contact fragmented information, but take the initiative to study systematically.

Uncle Mo and Ke Fuzi will do the same. They did not deliberately train Huazhenxing in which professional direction. They just told him when Huazhenxing had doubts: Many people have had the same questions throughout the ages. Let’s take a look at everyone. how to solve or solve.

Rochard didn't know how Hua Zhenxing grew up, so he was surprised. He asked again, "Can you remember all of this?"

Hua Zhenxing thought for a while, but didn't dare to brag too much: "It's not to remember, but to know. If I didn't learn this at all, and I didn't agree with you, would you talk about the Newton effect or the Duck effect again? These psychological effects It does exist, but that's not how you use it, is it?"

Rochard: "Hua, what do you want to say?"

Hua Zhenxing asked back, "Dr. Luo, what did you want to say?"

Rochard lowered his head and said: "I may not be doing well enough, and I know what you mean. I was just analyzing what causes certain situations, such as the threshold effect, which is a kind of human psychological instinct. It's part of human nature."

Hua Zhenxing blinked, quoting what Kefuzi said a few years ago: "Everything exists for a reason, but for people, not everything is taken for granted, otherwise what is the use of wisdom?

The original mind of man is neither nature nor instinct, otherwise, how is it different from grass and trees, and from animals and animals?Seeing a beautiful woman and becoming lustful is an instinct, but when you see a beautiful woman on the street and jumping on it, that is a beast! "

This passage of Master Ke is to teach Hua Zhenxing how to interpret "self-restraint and rites-for-benevolence", which can be understood differently in different times, but the core of his thoughts is the same.When Kefuzi said this, he vaguely sighed that after many years and many eras, he seemed to return to the beginning after coming to Fesuo Port.

Having said this, Hua Zhenxing remembered another paragraph of what Kefuzi had said, so he changed his tone: "Finding reasons for one's actions is called attribution in psychology, right? The book talks about external attribution and internal attribution. Attribution, but there is another kind of attribution not mentioned in the book, and an old man told me, that is, your situation."

Rochard wondered, "What attribution?"

Hua Zhenxing: "God attribution, or the creator attribution, attributes the problem to human nature, as if human beings would make certain mistakes, and God made people like this. But is this really the case, when you When you can realize and analyze the so-called human nature, this is not the case! Otherwise, what is the difference between people and paramecia?"

Rochard: "You still know paramecium?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Why do you think I shouldn't know what is in the middle school biology textbook?"

Rochard nodded and said, "You are still a child. The words you just said were told to you by others or read in books, but you are not able to say them yourself."

Hua Zhenxing: "Indeed, it was told to me by others. I understand what you mean, the prophet is right, and then I know why, and then I can do it. Several old men in my family also said the same."

Rochard suddenly laughed: "Are we discussing academic issues? I thought I was running away!"

Hua Zhenxing also smiled: "let's chat."

Rochard: "Yeah, chat! To be able to chat like this shows that we are all civilized people. You make me feel like you have a treasure at a young age."

Hua Zhenxing: "Really? I think so too."

Rochard looked at Hua Zhenxing, and the more he looked, the more curious he became. Although the person in front of him knew a lot, he was still a child.The conversation just now was that a child was eager to express his views, and he was looking for approval when arguing with others. At the same time, he also had a mentality of showing off his knowledge and eager to try.

Rochard is really good at analysis, at least he can see Hua Zhenxing's mentality very clearly at the moment.At this time, Hua Zhenxing asked again, "Dr. Luo, you haven't told me why someone wanted to kill you?"

Rochard lowered his eyes and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow, you should rest. I'll keep watch and call you in two hours."

Hua Zhenxing got up and walked to the tent: "Can I ask you one more thing, you have nothing in Mijianguo, what are you going to do when you go back?"

Rochard raised his head slightly and said: "Who said I have nothing, I have found my life! The place that once abandoned me, I am going to conquer it now and get back everything I should have!" These words are full of confidence , his eyes seemed to burst into light in the night.

Hua Zhenxing was slightly startled. It seemed that Dr. Luo should have obtained something in Fesuogang. After returning to Mijianguo, he would become very confident, and he might have been hunted down because of this.But since Dr. Luo doesn't want to say it now, he can't ask him, so he will wait until tomorrow.

When he returned to the tent, he didn't lie down to sleep immediately, but still sat up and focused. He called up the "system" in his consciousness and took a look, only to find that the progress bar of "task [-]" had actually been completed by about one-fifth.

The content of the second task is to "investigate the inside story of the big head gang wanting to kill Dr. Rochard".It seems that this is a phased task, and progress has been made through a long talk tonight, although the final truth has not yet been figured out.

The reward for Task 6000 is [-] meters of gold. Judging from this posture, even if it is not completely completed in the end, it is possible to get at least [-] meters of gold.What Hua Zhenxing is wondering now is how these rice gold will appear, is it falling from the sky?

　First of all, thank you for your great support over the past week!It's Monday again, looking for all kinds of votes to hit the list!
