Chapter 028 Personal Nihilism
"Haha, all the investigation bureaus on Dongyang Island have my information. It is very convenient for me to enter and exit these places!" Xia Xiaoyu said with a smile, her face full of boasting.
Su Ming frowned jealously, thinking how great it would be if he had the same ability as Xia Xiaoyu. If he had this ability, and combined with the system, wouldn't he be invincible?
But it doesn’t matter now. Xia Xiaoyu will help him. Xia Xiaoyu’s superpowers are equal to his superpowers.
But now Su Ming has not fully understood the effect of Xia Xiaoyu's supernatural powers. In order to use Xia Xiaoyu's supernatural powers more perfectly in the future, he must have a deeper understanding of Xia Xiaoyu's supernatural powers.
"Xiaoyu, I already know the general effect of your ability, but I feel that there are still many uncertainties in the details.
For example, even if what you did was seen by others at the time, those who saw it would ignore your existence and normalize what happened.
But those who didn't see you doing it directly can still find something special about what you did, just like just now, Sylvie and the uncle surnamed Zhang both realized that taking off clothes was not normal.
So what exactly is the mechanics of your powers?"
"Well... it's a little complicated, and I can't explain it in a short time. Let me show you now!"
Xia Xiaoyu took out a piece of paper from the storage box, wrote a line of words on it, and handed it to Su Ming: "Write a line of words on it yourself, and then give the note to Xi Wei and ask her to read it out."
Su Ming took the paper and took a look at what Xia Xiaoyu had written. She had written "fateful meeting" on it.
Su Ming picked up a pen and wrote a string of numbers at the bottom of the line. Then he ran to Sylvie and handed her the note: "Minister, can you help me see what's written on it? "
Xi Wei stopped, took the note from Su Ming, and took a look at it: "It says 391639616, what's wrong?"
Su Ming was stunned for a moment, then took the paper back: "Nothing."
Something strange happened.
Xia Xiaoyu's words were not seen by Sylvie!
Su Ming's previous understanding of Xia Xiaoyu's supernatural powers was that any of her actions would be ignored by witnesses, and the impact of her actions would be normalized in the eyes of witnesses.
But now, the words written by Xia Xiaoyu were not seen, which was inconsistent with the supernatural characteristics she had shown before.
Xia Xiaoyu drew crosses on the five people, which was noticed by Xi Wei and Zhang Tianxiao, and the five people involved could also see the red crosses.
But now, Xia Xiaoyu wrote a line of words, but no one saw it!
Drawing a cross and writing a line of words are obviously the same behavior, but the effect of the supernatural power has changed. The former can be seen, but the latter is directly ignored!
What is going on?
"What's going on?" Su Ming turned and asked Xia Xiaoyu.
Xia Xiaoyu took out another piece of paper and wrote the words "Fuck online classes" on it. She said to Su Ming, "Circle the words I wrote, then show it to her and tell her that it was written by you."
Su Ming hesitated for a moment, wanting Xia Xiaoyu to change the subject, but Xia Xiaoyu seemed to see through his thoughts and said directly: "It's okay, just show it to her."
Su Ming calmed himself down and did as he was told.
"Minister, these are the words I wrote, can you read them?" Su Ming said.
Sylvie frowned slightly, took the note unhappily, and read out the contents: "Fuck online classes."
After she finished reading, she returned the note to Su Ming and asked, "Why do you suddenly ask me to read the note?"
"No... no particular reason."
A drop of cold sweat broke out on Su Ming's forehead.
Xia Xiaoyu's words were seen, but the content was still normalized. If it were normal, Xiliwei would definitely criticize him severely if she saw such content.
But now, Sylvie's attitude did not change at all because of that sentence.
"Why? She can see it again?" Su Ming asked, "Because she thinks the words are written by me?"
Xia Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes, the words above are traces left by me. Everything about me, whether it is myself or my traces, will be 'ignored' and 'normalized' by others.
These are two completely different concepts. Ignorance means turning a blind eye and completely erasing me and my existence from the brain.
The first note just now is an example. The words on it were written by me. She also saw the words, but ignored them , so she directly read out what you wrote.
And the second time, you said that those words were written by you, so she could see those words, but because those words were actually written by me, the content itself inherited the influence of my supernatural powers, and then - it was normalized.
To put it nicely, it is normalization, but in fact, their brains are unable to think deeply about those traces. In their eyes, whether it is "fateful meeting" or "screw online classes", they are just words. As for what these words express, they cannot think deeply about it.
Just now I stripped those people of their clothes. They knew that their clothes were stripped off, but they were unable to think deeply about this phenomenon.
In their eyes, it was just that the clothes were taken off. As for why? Who took them off? They would not think about it... No, it should be said that they cannot think about it. "
Su Ming felt his hands were a little cold.
The more he understood Xia Xiaoyu's supernatural powers, the more he could understand why Xia Xiaoyu said it was not a supernatural power but a curse.
Possessing this kind of power means being completely isolated from humans.
With this supernatural power, you saved the world and no one praised you, and you slaughtered innocent people and no one blamed you.
This is no longer about doing whatever you want.
No one can stop someone from doing whatever he wants, and in the case of Xia Xiaoyu, no one is trying to stop him.
No one judges her behavior, there is no standard to measure her behavior. Right and wrong, good and evil, no longer exist for her. Everything is meaningless - nihilism in reality.
Su Ming recalled what Xia Xiaoyu had once said to him. She said that if he was a murderer, she would hand him a knife.
At the time, he thought it was an exaggeration, but looking back now, he thinks the other party might have been serious.
For Xia Xiaoyu, being a murderer's assistant was not bad. At least at that time, her existence changed from meaningless to possessing the concept of "evil".
Before, Su Ming always thought that he understood Xia Xiaoyu's situation, but at this moment, he truly understood that kind of despair... It was a despair that chilled people to the bone.
Seeing Su Ming's face was a little ugly, Xia Xiaoyu patted him gently and said with a smile: "Don't think too much! Everything is fine now. Now I can see me with you, right? And with you here, I can communicate with others through you!"
"How to communicate?" Su Ming looked puzzled.
"Have you forgotten? You can be my messenger. Didn't you ask Flora for me at the subway station?"
Su Ming thought about it for a moment, his eyes suddenly brightened: "Ah...it's really like that!"
