Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 5396 (five thousand three hundred and ninety-six) room

The Gray Hand asked, "What are you worried about?"

The man thought for a moment and said, "Actually... I shouldn't be that worried. I... don't need to worry about what happened to that 'I'. That's all true."

The Gray Hand asked again: "Is what you are thinking at this moment really as you said?"

The man asked, "What did I say?"

The Gray Hand said, "That's what you just said. You think you shouldn't be that worried."

"That should be the case." said the man.

After saying this, the man felt his heart was clearly turbulent again. Thinking that the Gray Hands Man could know what he was thinking, he felt that he had to speak out the other voice in his heart. At this time, he was glad that he had only said "it should be like that" before, and did not say it was like that, so there was still room for redemption.

So he said, "Just now... I just felt that I 'should' do that. But... I'm not completely able to stop worrying."

The Gray Hand Man said again: "Answer me, what are you worried about?"

The man said, "I am just worried that what happened to that 'I' is...real."

Gray Hand said: "That is, to some extent, you kind of believe in that part of your experience."

"I don't want to believe it." said the man.

"I'm not asking whether you're willing or not, I'm only asking whether you believe it or not." said the man with gray hands.

"Most people... still don't believe it." The man said, "After all, it's ridiculous."

The Gray Hand asked, "What about the minority?"

The man said: "There are a few... some who believe it but I don't want to believe it."

The man with gray hands asked: "For example, the thing about how you bullied the blue-armored people to the limit and your father died because of you?" The man with gray hands asked this because during this period of time he felt that no matter how he asked that person about the things that had happened to his father, he would not fall into the state of being unable to communicate normally with others again because of fear or something like that.

"That's... yes." The man said, "I can only say that there seems to be a voice in my heart that secretly... tells me to believe it. But in fact, no matter how many times I hear that voice, I... still don't want to believe it. That unwillingness probably diluted my idea of ​​believing it."

The Gray Hand asked, "You still feel the same way until now?"

"Yes." said the man.

The Gray Hand asked again: "Why do you think that sound appeared?"

The man said, "Perhaps many of the things that happened to that 'me' are related to things that really happened to the real me in the past. When things are too related... I... tend to make all kinds of associations."

Gray Hand asked, "Is there another reason? Just the connection to the past?"

The man thought about it and suddenly remembered something. He felt that even if he didn't say it, the man with gray hands should know it, so he might as well say it directly.

"And..." the man said.

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but the man was thinking if he really said it, would it come true, so he wanted to swallow it back. However, he was worried about the consequences of not saying it, and he was conflicted.

"What?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"If I... say it out loud, won't it become true?" the man asked.

"You're still worried about this." said the Gray Hand Man.

The man asked, "You...know everything, right?"
