I, who advocate giving up, feel like a disqualified person

"But I won't listen to any of your opinions..."

"Wait! Even if you want to... So, did I do something I shouldn't have done? At least give me a reason... or something."

"reason?"

The right hand holding the knife dropped momentarily, as if preparing to answer him. This action made the senior relax a little, thinking that things could turn around.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she rushed towards the senior with a sharp knife in her hand.

"Why... should I tell you?"

So fast... This doesn't look like a girl who looks weak at all. In other words, the fact that she was panting and looked not good at sports was probably just a disguise.

"I really do not understand people's hearts."

In what seemed to be the last moment of his life, what the senior was thinking in his mind was actually these words.

Then, reluctantly but calmly, he closed his eyes.

....................

"Ah, this really is..."

The senior closed his eyes and prepared to accept the knife tip invading his body and the upcoming severe pain, but suddenly heard familiar yet unfamiliar words in his ears.

That voice was indeed his...but the tone sounded like someone else entirely.

What is...

"...troublesome things."

When he opened his eyes, he saw the back of the younger man named Isako. He had appeared from nowhere, standing in front of his elder, his right hand tightly grasping the blade that was about to pierce him.

Of course, his hands were bleeding profusely from this action.

Ming Xinxi seemed surprised by his appearance and actions, but it was only a brief hesitation. Then she wanted to pull the blade back with force. In that case... Sheji, who was holding the blade, would definitely let go because of the pain.

"If I pull the knife back..."

A completely different aura.

For some reason, the look in Ming Xinxi's eyes from the younger generation named Yi Sheji was different from any previous encounters.

what happened...

While she hesitated briefly because of this, Sheji never hesitated at all.

"But it's very troublesome."

Then she felt a sharp blow on her wrist.

It was a blow from Sheji's left hand. Under this sudden and heavy blow, the hand holding the knife handle unconsciously loosened due to the pain. Then, the blood-stained fruit knife fell into his hand and was thrown aside.

"Pah... Dada..."

After the tip of the knife hit the ground, it bounced a few times and landed far away from Ming Xinxi.

"Ah...ah..."

how so.

It's over...

I failed.

The person I saw was still standing there.

The person I hate still hasn't disappeared.

It's completely different from what I thought...

“…Why…why…”

If it weren't for this guy in front of me...

This guy with lifeless eyes, looking decadent and disgusting...why did he appear?

If he hadn't shown up!

"Why are you here?!"

She grabbed his collar tightly with both hands and questioned loudly.

"It's only a little bit away!"

It was just one step away, and that so-called prince would disappear. It was just one step away, and the guy who stole my happiness would disappear. It was just one step away, and I could achieve happiness with my own hands.

"Just a little bit?"

Questioning? Or talking to yourself?

"You're only a little bit away from what you can do?"

Without any resistance, he looked coldly at Ming Xinxi, who was almost crazy in front of him.

How can I...

"Needless to say! Then I can... I can be with Hui! I can get... the happiness I've always dreamed of!"

In her eyes, there will only be me.

Leaning on each other...living as usual.

"Ah, really..."

What kind of look is this?

From Ming Xinxi's perspective, that Sheji was just the Sheji of the younger generation, his eyes filled with indifference. As if nothing concerned him... Why did he have such an expression? What on earth was he thinking?

"Do you think Senior Li Yinghui would want you to do this?"

"..."

"Who are you doing this for? Li Yinghui, the one you love? Or is it just for your own selfish desires? And you don't even consider the consequences of doing this... You keep talking about your own happiness..."

"Then what do you know! What on earth do you know about my experiences, my thoughts, and everything I've been through?"

The almost distorted face was close to him, and in his opinion, it was just a weak question.

“…I don’t understand…”

I don’t understand a lot of things because the world is so troublesome.

"But, the person you want to talk to isn't me, right..." He said, turning his head to the side. "How about trying to talk to her?"

It's impossible to tell right from wrong

"What's going on here? Why is Akane in a place like this?"

It seems that we arrived at the right time. As soon as I stuck my head out from the corner of the dark alley, I saw Ming Xinxi confronting her senior. At this moment, she had just put her hand into her pocket, and it seemed to be the object I felt before.

Oh, this is going to be fun.

For some reason, I always felt an inexplicable sense of pleasure when I showed this scene to Li Yinghui beside me.

"Don't go over there, just watch quietly."

I stretched out my left arm to stop Li Yinghui who wanted to go out to dissuade us, and pulled her sleeve to make her squat down with me. There happened to be a pile of debris from construction materials nearby that could provide us with a hiding place.

"Why...Xiao Qian..."

Perhaps she was stunned by the scene before her. She just squatted down and stared blankly in the direction of the two people, muttering to herself.

"Hmm?..." This reaction is a bit strange.

I followed her gaze and saw that Xiao Qian, who Li Yinghui thought was well-behaved and kind, was raising a gleaming blade towards Senior Sun. The murderous intent in her eyes showed that she was not joking.

"...Ah...this is troublesome."

It's a little different from what I expected.

Chapter 33: It is impossible to tell right from wrong

What we do cannot be simply divided into "right" and "wrong" because the world is inherently troublesome.

The correctness of what you do cannot be measured by the outcome of the event; things done with different moods may lead to the same results.

Those who believe in "result theory" are just fools who think after the fact. When they say thinking, they probably just simply classify the results as "right" or "wrong" and then recognize them.

In other words, anything that aligns with their views (i.e., the views of the majority, such as morality and law) is labeled "right," and anything that aligns with them is labeled "wrong." So, what if laws and morals were to become something completely contrary to our current understanding? I'm afraid those people would still follow them without question.

Boring and uninteresting.

If you can't understand it, why pretend you can? If it's driven by selfish desires, why pretend you understand? If happiness isn't possible for everyone, why force yourself to suffer misfortune?

I don't want to bring misfortune to those around me. Not only my senior Sun Hao, but even Ming Xinxi, whom I haven't known for long, I also hope that she can find happiness.

But, I can feel it.

Her happiness depends on his. And if she follows her way, Li Yinghui will definitely not be happy. So, what is the right thing to do in this situation?

I don't know, but if I help my senior, I can achieve my goal, that naive guy will get psychological comfort, and my senior will actually gain unforgettable feelings. Needless to say, Li Yinghui can be with the person she likes.

In other words, if we act according to my ideas, the three people involved in this matter will get satisfaction to varying degrees, and the only one who will be hurt is Ming Xinxi.

However, after this incident, she can still go to the same school with her beloved Li Yinghui and continue to experience her campus life for about a year. From this perspective, the damage should be minimal.

And what will happen if we let her do whatever she wants?

I'm afraid that in the end she won't even be able to achieve her own goal.

So when the pros and cons are so obvious, it is obvious what to do.

"Expose Ming Xinxi's unknown side to Li Yinghui." This is what I want to do.

As long as this is done, there will naturally be the necessary changes in the relationship between the two without me having to say anything more.

But...

I was still taking things for granted. I thought everyone was like me and wouldn't easily fall into extremes of thought.

When I saw the knife in Ming Xinxi's hand, which showed no sign of trembling, I realized that I was wrong. There are people who ignore all reality in order to achieve their own dreams and are completely immersed in their own wishful thinking.

"What a hassle..."

I have to say, there are all kinds of people in this world.

There are even people who close their eyes and wait for death when they are about to be stabbed with a knife.

................

"With him?"

With a disdainful tone, she casually glanced at the senior behind me with a nonchalant look, then sneered and replied, "You want me to talk to that kind of person? It's simply impossible. Don't think I can have a calm conversation with him just because I can't make him disappear from this world now."

It has come to this. What kind of outrageous thing did Senior do?

"Ah...I think you misunderstood."

I could vaguely feel the pain from being cut on my palm, and I could clearly feel the warm blood dripping along my fingertips.

"Senior... he definitely won't have anything to discuss with you."

I looked back at my senior who had been silent since the beginning. I don’t know if it was because he was frightened, but he just stood there with a blank look in his eyes, his gaze seemed to be fixed on my injured palm.

"Huh? If you're not referring to that jerk behind you, then who else is here?"

"..."

I didn't answer, but silently looked behind me. A person who was extremely important to Ming Xinxi slowly stood up from behind some debris not far away and appeared before her.

...What will happen...I turned my gaze to Ming Xinxi. Her pupils shrank rapidly as if they were exposed to strong light, as if she had encountered something terrifying.

"Ah...ah ah..."

Her lips trembled slightly as she opened and closed them, and it was clear that her mind was completely blank. She wanted to explain herself, but she couldn't think of any reason to justify what she had done.

"No... that's not it..."

Her legs seemed to have lost their strength, and she couldn't help but take a few steps back. Then she slightly supported her forehead with her right hand, but her eyes did not leave Li Yinghui in front of her.

"Xiao Qian..."
