Why it never ends

"At night, this man indeed had the same dream again," Lin Jiao continued. "He quickly wrote down the truth in the dream, and then fell asleep contentedly... The next morning, he excitedly opened the book Paper, guess what is written on the paper?"

"what?"

“The bigger the banana, the bigger the banana peel.”

"..."

Amid Lin Jiao's laughter, Hesta pondered over the last burden in confusion.

"Why is this a joke...it's so ridiculous," Hesta said softly, "Is it funny?"

"It's not funny yet. I laugh every time I hear it." Lin Jiao recovered from his laughter. "You really don't know how to appreciate it... It's funny just because it's ridiculous. Just talking to you in an old man's class." Menstruation shaming is just as ridiculous.”

Hesta stopped.

"Ah... don't look at me like this, I didn't mean to make fun of you," Lin Jiao calmed down his expression, "I was describing a fact. People will laugh when something is too ridiculous. This is normal. Physiological reaction, I would have laughed if I were there."

"So...how can I make it less funny?"

Lin Jiao laughed out loud again - Hesta's solemn expression at this moment once again triggered the switch related to laughter in her body. Lin Jiao shook his head while laughing, his expression seemed to be begging for mercy.

"What are you laughing at again?" Hesta's eyebrows twisted into knots, "Did I say something ridiculous again?"

"Thank you so much for looking up to me," Lin Jiao put his hands on his hips and couldn't help but raise his head to stop laughing, "You actually asked me such a difficult question..."

"You don't know the answer either?"

"Well... I think," Lin Jiao looked over, "it's pointless to say more in that place where you can laugh, because no one in the audience is actually listening... they don't understand what you are doing, so Everyone pretends to be a fool and just tolerates it. If they listen and understand what you are doing, do you know how they should react? "

"what?"

"At least it should be anger," Lin Jiao said with a smile, "An angry reaction means that your attack is actually carried out."

"...But I obviously haven't attacked anyone?"

"Oh? You think you don't?"

"Who did I attack? I can't even understand why this whole thing is so difficult!"

"That's a pity. Obviously you don't understand what you are doing now. You just..." Lin Jiao curled his lips, "You have good intuition."

Hesta also laughed, and Lin Jiao could hear the angry tone in her laughter, and couldn't help but turn his head, "Tomorrow is Tuesday, what are you going to do?"

Hesta's face darkened. She put her left hand in her pocket and continued walking forward with Lin Jiao without saying a word.

Soon, the two came to the corner where the Ava statue was. Hesta stopped. She looked at Ava's eyes on the stone statue, "I have been thinking about this for the past few days... I always think about it. , what would Ava do if she were in my current position?" "What did you figure out?"

Hesta shook her head.

"It's normal to not be able to figure it out," Lin Jiao said with a smile. "If you put yourself in the perspective of a patriarchal flag-guard, what useful conclusions can you draw?"

"...What about patriarchy?"

"Flag guard," Lin Jiao looked at her, "I think Yi Ti explained it to you last time?"

"If you mean those cases," Hestad said softly, "I don't see anything wrong with that-"

"For herself," Lin Jiao said, "I can only say that she is a master of wielding power. When she is in a low position, she knows how to use her female identity to win support. When she is almost done, she will turn around and go Fighting for equality for men - I thought Yi Ti had made it clear enough?"

"These are all motive inferences," Hesta said, "You are not Ava, and neither is Yi Ti. Just judging from the results-"

"Just looking at the results, all the resources and energy that could have been directed to women still fall on men. According to Ava, all protection of women must always come from helping men in difficult situations. Initial realization - let me ask you, is this the meaning of electing female officials?" Lin Jiao sneered, "The court arguments are all false... The only clear beneficiary of all these cases is Ava herself, and her investment In the end, all her energy was used for her own political resources - there is no benefit to protecting women, but there are too many benefits to prove to the superiors that she has the value to win people's hearts under the banner of protecting women. But to be honest, if every woman With a heart as hard as Ava’s, we would definitely be better off than we are now.”

"...Of course you can interpret it this way," Hesta looked at the statue, "but-"

"What's the point? A politician working as a pimp in his own villa -"

"Such unfounded words——"

"Why is it necessary for women to do laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping and cooking?" Lin Jiao frowned, "Why didn't she think about all women when she was redressing the victims? Instead, she was doing it for herself When you are looking for servants, you suddenly become so picky that you can’t even have a man?”

The veins on Hesta's forehead jumped again. She thought of the days and nights she spent at Ava's house. She swallowed the words and just whispered, "...you are too extreme."

"Am I being extreme, or are some people just unwilling to face the truth?" Lin Jiao looked at her, "They refuse to believe in logic and common sense, and they refuse to accept and acknowledge a fact just because it doesn't match their feelings. .”

"It's not that I don't believe in logic or common sense," Hesta said solemnly, "No matter what -"

"Do you know what makes me feel most ridiculous? Why on earth are we two quarreling here tonight over a dead person?" Lin Jiao took a deep breath, "No matter what Ava Morgan thinks. Yes, she was a woman who carved a niche in that era by her own means. This incident has a positive meaning! Isn’t it normal for a woman born in the last century to have her own limitations in her thoughts? No one tried Her value has been completely wiped out. But she is old and dead. She has been buried in the soil and even her body has rotted! The living are the future, do you understand? You, me - we are the future! "

For a moment, Hesta felt a surge of blood.

In a blinding rage, she clenched her fists. She stared into Lin Jiao's eyes, but found that her anger was not directed at the person in front of her. An unspeakable sadness pierced her heart like a sharp blade, reminding her once again of a fact she thought she had accepted -

Ava is dead.

And a dead person cannot defend himself.
