Chapter 280: Is human nature inherently good? Is human nature inherently evil?

【May 1995: The relationship between you and Lin Ye progresses rapidly. During this time, you learn various swordsmanship from Lin Ye.

June 1995: The relationship between you and Lin Ye gets better and better, but every night, you always feel uneasy. Because you discover that you are different from others. You start to worry if Lin Ye will hate you like this.

July 1995: Summer vacation. Lin Ye says he wants to take you away from Mifune City to travel. You don't agree. Finally, you decide to tell Lin Ye everything.】

Ryougi Shiki is prepared to confess. She doesn't like this feeling of concealment. She decides that no matter how Lin Ye reacts, she will calmly accept it.

And at this moment, Lin Ye also notices that something is wrong with Ryougi Shiki.

【July 13, 1995: Late at night, you hear a knock on the door, so you open the door.

At this moment, you see Ryougi Shiki standing at the door looking at you. She waved at you, then smiled and introduced herself, "Hello, my name is Ryougi Shiki."

Ryougi Shiki?

Lin Ye lowers his head and thinks for a moment. He already understands who he is about to face.

Ryougi Shiki, Shiki and Shiki are actually the same person; other than a slight difference in personality, there is basically no difference between the two.

However, Shiki may have some misunderstandings about Shiki. She thinks that Shiki only knows how to kill, so in order to ensure the morality of Ryougi Shiki, she repeatedly kills "Shiki" in her heart, thereby controlling Shiki's desire to kill.

But in fact, Ryougi Shiki does not like killing; it is just that in her simple way of thinking, she only knows how to kill.

【"Lin Ye, right? This is our first official meeting, isn't it? It's truly unexpected that Shiki would open her heart to a man."】

Ryougi Shiki looks at Lin Ye curiously, constantly sizing up the man in front of her.

"Shiki hates humans. I really can't imagine that one day she would fall in love with a man, and furthermore, be able to enjoy the feeling of being loved."

"Shiki actually understands everything." Lin Ye says directly. "She doesn't hate humans. In fact, she loves humans more than anyone else."】

Lin Ye understands Ryougi Shiki very well. She is just not good at expressing her feelings, but that doesn't mean she hates everyone.

【Listening to Lin Ye's words, Ryougi Shiki was also stunned for a moment, then continued, "Is that so? I don't think so. Humans can only express the emotions they have felt before, but I am different. Since I was born, I have felt everything about human nature. Shiki and I are one; how could she, who has felt the evil of human nature since birth, possibly like humans?"】

"Do you think you have already understood everything about human nature?" Lin Ye looks at the Ryougi Shiki in front of him. He understands that what Ryougi Shiki thinks is just what she thinks.

"Of course, human nature is inherently evil," Ryougi Shiki says as such.

"Is that so?" Lin Ye looks at the Ryougi Shiki in front of him. He suddenly says to Ryougi Shiki, "Let me tell you a story. There was a young girl walking alone on the road. She met a blind beggar. This girl suddenly felt that this beggar was very pitiful, so she gave him 1000 yuan directly."

This person... is named Ryougi Shiki.

"That was just something done in passing." Ryougi Shiki's complexion changed slightly. She had almost forgotten about this herself.

Ryougi Shiki likes to wander at night because only in this way can she feel a tranquil sense of loneliness. As for the matter Lin Ye mentioned, she seems to have indeed done it, but she does not know when that happened.

"1000 yen doesn't represent anything."

"No, I think this 1000 yen represents a lot." Lin Ye shakes his head.】

Is human nature inherently good or inherently evil? Humans have argued about this question for nearly a thousand years without reaching any conclusion.

Because Lin Ye feels that human beings are dualistic, and neither extreme kindness nor extreme evil is correct. And in the eyes of Ryougi Shiki and Ryougi Shiki, they wrongly regard themselves as good and evil, which in itself is an incorrect way of thinking.

【"Shall we do an experiment?" Lin Ye suddenly says.】

"What experiment?" Ryougi Shiki looks at Lin Ye with confusion. Lin Ye simply spreads his hands; in his hands, flowers begin to surround them. "I have always believed that pure kindness cannot be observed independently. So... come with me."

Swish.

Suddenly, Lin Ye grabs Ryougi Shiki's hand. At that moment, Lin Ye pulls her and flies up directly.

This is not the first time Ryougi Shiki has seen the magic of this man, so she does not show any surprise.

Afterward, Lin Ye takes her to a small alley. At this moment, in this alley, several delinquent youths are chasing a girl in a school uniform. Clearly, these youths have ulterior motives toward this girl.

And at this moment, Lin Ye whispers in Ryougi Shiki's ear.

"Her name is Asagami Fujino. Like you, she is from one of the four great demon-hunting families. Like you, she has shown different supernatural powers since childhood. However... unlike you, the people in her family treat her ability like a tiger, even injecting her with large amounts of..."

painkillers, causing her to suffer from analgesia."】

"Why are you telling me all this?" Ryougi Shiki looks at Lin Ye on the side. "If you want to save her, then take action. Why tell me these things?"

"Take action? No, no, no, this is her destiny." After Lin Ye finishes speaking, his body turns into flower petals and disappears into the sky.

And at this moment, Ryougi Shiki clearly sees that the young girl has been cornered by several delinquents. These delinquents are constantly closing in on the girl, and the girl's face is full of fear.

However, she can't do anything. She can only watch helplessly as these delinquents constantly approach her. "Help!"

The girl screams constantly, but in this late night, no one can respond to her cry for help.

"Scream all you want! Even if you scream until your throat breaks, no one will come to save you!" the delinquent says, and then the distance between him and the girl gets closer and closer...

Three meters... two meters... one meter...

Finally, just as the leading delinquent is about to lay his hands on the girl, Ryougi Shiki's voice rings out, "Stop! Right there!"

Swish, swish, swish!

Instantly, the four delinquents turn their heads. The moment they see Ryougi Shiki, their eyes light up. "Heh, I was worried one wasn't enough to go around, I didn't expect another one to deliver herself to our door! Brothers! Get her!"

Swish, swish, swish!

Instantly, these thugs rush toward Ryougi Shiki, and at this moment, Ryougi Shiki cannot help but raise her fist.

"You guys... are really disgusting!"】 ===== CHAPTER 282 =====
