Volume 12: Cafe Heroes Chapter 22: A sharp turn for the worse
It is not uncommon in the course of intelligent life to destroy in the name of others and then frame them.
Perhaps this kind of thing is unbelievable on a regular battlefield, but on the cultural and social battlefields, this kind of thing is commonplace. In a way, these places are more terrifying than regular battlefields, because regular battlefields test technology and strength, but this battlefield tests people's hearts.
Unfortunately, the thing that cannot be tested the most in this world is the human heart. Anyone who wants to test the human heart will be defeated by the ugliness and pain of the human heart in the end, without exception. The pain on the cultural front is nothing more than this. Knowing that you are doing the right thing, you often have to make other choices against your will. When facing the malice from many aspects, you can only passively bear it, and magic is powerless at this moment.
There are so many enemies, just like the stars in the sky. The most terrifying thing is that you don't know who has the strongest malice. It is possible that the real enemy does not hate you, but some people who have never met you hate you to the core, just because doing so can integrate into some groups. Such people's hearts are really not worth using magic to test anything. In the complex interpersonal environment and social environment, even idealistic magic sometimes seems so powerless. There is no way to track down the people you really want to track down, and you can only use some indirect means to block and stop them.
But even if it is blocked and stopped, it will create other unnecessary interference sources. Countless people with malicious intentions are waiting for others to show weakness, so that they can turn their dissatisfaction and irritability in life into cyber violence against others, and curse and attack those who disagree with them, which even the instigator is not prepared for .
If everyone's heart is really good, the border of hell would not be much wider than the holy light. It would be better to say that everyone is an egoist. And this state is also reflected in all aspects.
For Li Lin himself, this also showed him the invincible and unstoppable Holy Lights' struggling and embarrassing side.
"Mary was attacked...and it's said that someone from our side did it. News reports have appeared."
Those people really don't miss any opportunity.
What a bastard it is to attack a girl who has no ability to resist...
Looking at the girl in the photo who was crying with her face covered, George's expression became more and more gloomy. The faces of the other people present also became not so good. The idol showed a somewhat nervous expression, and the staff were uncertain, and the atmosphere became more and more heavy and dark.
It should be said that all the malice of intelligent life is concentrated on the devil or something. Less than three days after the inference was made, this not-so-good headline appeared in front of everyone. The girl who was forced to leave because of insulting Li Lin still did not give up her idol idea and changed to another agency to work. However, she was attacked by thugs during the promotion, claiming that this was the retribution for betraying the Holy Light.
Although the crazy guy was contained in time, the mental examination also found that he was just an unemployed vagrant with extreme mental state. He was attracted by a post on an anonymous forum, and then he simply held some extreme thoughts and thought that something was what it was. The anonymous forum was subsequently closed, but the mastermind disappeared, and it was found that the layout of the website had hints. But even so, it caused an uproar on the entire network. After all, this was a Saint Light idol who was attacked by Saint Light supporters after retiring. No matter what the truth is, the media will definitely chase after him like flies smelling stench.
"Fortunately, there was no real damage, just a slap in the face. However, during the inspection, we found that he had weapons of mass destruction and magical devices on him. If they were detonated, it would undoubtedly be a scandal on our side and the cause of poor security."
"There's no other way. Even non-staff members and people on vacation have been dragged in to make up the numbers."
"That's right."
George looked at Li Lin apologetically, then looked at the people who were reading the news and showing obvious shrinking expressions and whispered:
"This may not be the dreamlike idol career you imagined. You are now facing life-threatening dangers. We will not hide our thoughts. Yes, everyone is in crisis now. I am not sure what they can do."
"They can pretend to be extreme fans of the Holy Light to attack the outflow personnel, and they can also pretend to be extreme outsiders to attack us and intensify the conflict. If the people are not united but divided, then our Holy Light will have no meaning of existence. This is also the main reason why they do such things. This kind of quarrel may seem funny, but it can deeply root hatred in the hearts of everyone involved in the quarrel, and make them hate and detest the Holy Light strongly."
"However, unfortunately, we really can't spare too many people for security protection now. The Pale Expedition is imminent, and we can't spare too many people directly under the Holy Light Department for security protection. The non-direct types will have the current situation - the security system was bought, and then such problems occurred. This shows that they have begun to use every possible means. Of course, they always use every possible means, but now it is especially dirty. We could deal with it calmly in the past, but now most of our forces are preparing for the Pale Expedition, and we can't spare any manpower."
"The Internet is spreading extreme opinions crazily to guide public opinion. Although the Holy Light Faction has not changed as a whole, there are already many disgusted and tired emotions. Some people have even begun to spread the idea that there must be shadows and injustices under the Holy Light. All of this is because of extreme opinions and those demons. I admit that we don't have the leisure to pay attention to other idols now, and the Holy Light Faction has always been at an extreme disadvantage in the public opinion field. It's just that this time there are many people who deliberately make extreme remarks to lead the rhythm... And it's very sad that we can't tell them apart. So I regret to announce here that the voluntary withdrawal plan will be launched now. If you voluntarily withdraw, we will not charge any fees. That's it."
“…”
The dozen or so girls in the room looked at each other, then bit their lips, and a pale-faced girl stood out.
"I'm sorry, mentor, we want to quit... This is not the life we want ... We are not yet at the point of devoting our lives to the idol career, we are really sorry..."
"Me too……"
"Me too. Risking your life or something like that is too much."
"Well, I don't want this to happen, but I'm still scared..."
With the first one taking the lead, there will be a second and a third. These are just simple civilian girls who have no awareness of sacrificing themselves for the whole world. They just passed the review and are kind-hearted, but being kind-hearted does not mean that you can die for others. So after a short period of time, one-third of the girls announced their withdrawal on the spot, and the remaining girls also changed their expressions and looked very tempted.
Muse and George didn't say anything, they just pulled out the list and crossed out the names one by one, then told the other employees to clean up and send them out of the area. However, just as the preparations were going on in an orderly manner, a discordant voice came from among the girls.
"...Oh, what a bunch of idiots."
