Chapter 1092

"Scott! What were you thinking?!"

Polaris's tone came from around the corner of the corridor, and soon, the green-haired figure appeared in the corridor in a hurry, looking back while walking and saying loudly:

"You actually let Shiler and Magneto stay together?? You are crazy; he will ruin everything!"

Scott, who was following closely behind her, said helplessly: "I was helping Dr. Shiler deliver some luggage, and by the time I finished, he had already left his room to find Magneto; his movements were too fast, and I didn't have time to stop him!"

"You should have been watching him 24 hours a day since you got off the spaceship! Didn't you see that the line on the sun was a warning from Erik that he wanted to give Shiler a hard time?"

Polaris walked forward while grabbing her long hair hard, saying with slight anger: "Do you expect Magneto to be someone who considers the big picture?!"

Lorna appeared sad and angry; she covered half her face with one hand and said: "He knew how important Shiler's plan was to mutants, yet he still provoked him on his own. 'There are no patients here'? To hell with it! The biggest patient here is him! Magneto!"

Scott also sighed and said: "It's okay, Dr. Shiler won't be unprepared; he won't get hurt..."

"Good heavens! You only expect him not to get hurt? If the two of them get into a big fight, do you think Shiler won't be angry? The entire Andromeda Galaxy is in his plan; apart from Professor X, who among those in our hands can tolerate such ingratitude?! Our reputation will be ruined!"

Polaris walked forward quickly, passing through the somewhat complex corridor; she tidied her hair and said: "Before Christmas, the two of us had another argument and even got physical, ruining the Christmas tree at the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters; Wanda and Pietro were so angry they ran away from home..."

"After that, Professor Charles found me..." Polaris sighed, slowly closed her eyes, recalled the scene of that day, and said: "He asked me a question that made me feel unable to answer..."

"What question?"

"He asked me if we felt that he held too much hope for Magneto?" Polaris revealed a slightly self-deprecating smile and said: "He shouldn't have asked me this question; he should have asked you, asked the X-Men; every one of you feels that way..."

"Every one of you feels that Professor X always holds unrealistic expectations for Magneto, while Magneto will only disappoint him forever, and what makes you feel puzzled is: why did Magneto ruin so many things, but Professor X still holds hope for him time and time again?"

"Then how did you answer?" Scott asked curiously.

"I said, probably because you are friends." Polaris shook her head and said: "But actually, this is not the answer in my heart, but I couldn't answer him: probably because you, Professor, are too patient; if it were any other ordinary person, they would have been angered to death by him long ago!"

Scott felt that he couldn't express an opinion on this; after all, Polaris was Magneto's daughter, and her speaking ill of her father might be because her rebellious phase had arrived, but if he were to chime in on the side, the nature of the matter would be different.

"Yes, I know, my temper isn't good either..." Polaris walked forward with her arms crossed and said: "I shouldn't have argued with him, let alone gotten physical, but could someone with a better temper have tolerated him? How many Professor X's are there in this world?"

Polaris took a deep breath, sniffed, and said: "Some people say I am like him, but at least I have a good relationship with Havok and Iceman, and Shadowcat and Rogue can barely be considered friends, but him? He has lived for so many years, isn't Professor X still his only friend?"

"Sometimes, I really feel very scared; if I reach his age and live like him, counting with my fingers, I only have one friend, and my relationship with my children is not good, then how am I supposed to save my life?"

"Don't think too much, Lorna." Scott walked up, patted Polaris on the shoulder, and said: "Life is lived by oneself; we will all have a better future..."

Although Scott said this, when he reached the end, he also sighed a little; if Magneto and Shiler really started fighting, that better future might be infinitely delayed.

Polaris clearly thought of this point too; she quickened her pace and looked back at Scott while walking: "We must get there quickly; maybe we can stop them before they make a big scene..."

"In case they really start fighting, I am responsible for dragging Erik away, and you take Dr. Shiler away." Polaris rubbed her eyebrows and said: "Fortunately, Dr. Shiler's temper should be good enough not to lower himself to his level; separate them quickly, and there won't be a big mess..."

As soon as Scott thought about the situation he was about to face, he felt a headache; he knew Shiler's temper was definitely better than Magneto's, but he didn't really know Shiler well and didn't know if he could stop him if he really got angry.

The two walked forward full of worries, turned a corner, went up the stairs, and just as they reached the top of the stairs, Polaris bent down, hid behind the wall next to the corridor, and pricked up her ears to listen carefully.

"He is here; I can't use magnetic field detection, otherwise I will be discovered, but I don't feel any magnetic field fluctuations; it seems the two of them should still be arguing." Polaris made an "OK" gesture, waved at Scott, and signaled him to follow.

The two lightened their steps, slowly walked toward the depths of the corridor, and then moved step by step to the door of Magneto's office.

Just as they were about to reach the door, Polaris made a "hush" gesture to Scott, then lowered her voice and said: "I can disguise the nearby magnetic field to fool him; we must first listen to what they are arguing about, so it will be easier to mediate later..."

Scott felt that eavesdropping was not very good, but thinking about the special situation, there was no better way, so he nodded and moved closer toward Polaris's direction.

The two sneaked to the door of the office, Polaris gently pressed her hand on the wall, and intermittent sounds came from inside the door.

"Have you ever thought about why the evaluation of you by a professional psychologist is completely different from the evaluation of you by ordinary people?" Shiler's voice came from inside the door.

"If there were only Charles, it could be said that you knew each other when you were young and the friendship is deep, but the two of us didn't know each other before, we can hardly talk about any understanding, and there is even less influence of subjective emotions; why do I also feel that you are actually not as unapproachable as the public evaluation?"

Magneto seemed to have answered something, but it appeared somewhat vague, and Shiler's voice came again:

"I don't know if you have ever understood what the profession of your old friend is actually about."

"Of course, in our era, this subject had not yet formed a system, but in just a few decades, it has experienced rapid development and is also becoming increasingly perfect."

"Even if you don't understand professional knowledge, it doesn't matter; psychology is actually just the literal meaning; we are a discipline that studies human psychology, which means that compared to ordinary people looking at surface actions, we pay more attention to people's inner selves."

"Not to be too humble, although Charles's professional level is far superior to mine, I can also be considered a relatively experienced psychologist; then, why do you think the two scholars who have the most thorough research on human inner selves in this world have both given you such high evaluations?"

Before Magneto could answer, Shiler said: "Because your inner personality is actually quite charming."

"That's right, this point of view also contradicts the public's judgment; ordinary people, and even your children, feel that you are difficult to get along with and annoying, but actually they are not wrong either; it's just that the two views each have their own causes."

"Psychologists have undergone professional training; we are good at analyzing people's inner psychology through external manifestations."

"However, ordinary people have not undergone such training; most people look at people only by external behavior and find it difficult to analyze deeper behavioral logic."

"We believe you have a charming inner personality, which does not mean your external behavior will not annoy ordinary people; this is actually not contradictory at all."

Shiler's voice with a smile came, the tone was always very steady, as if no matter how shocking the words were, they had his reasoning.

"A person doesn't need to be perfect in every aspect to have personality charm; on the contrary, professional data shows that often, when one of a person's personality traits is very prominent and others are weaker, they will possess unique charm."

"For example, some famous generals sometimes appear arbitrary and dictatorial, arrogant and haughty, and cannot handle the details of many things well; some even cannot take care of themselves, but this does not prevent them from having powerful personality charm; many soldiers are convinced by their personality charm and are willing to serve them."

"There is a bright spot in your personality that can always attract a group of people who appreciate you, and if you are hated by everyone, it doesn't mean there are no bright spots in your personality; this is what I am going to say next..."

"What are they talking about?" Polaris listened to the dialogue in the room with some confusion; she couldn't really understand many of the professional psychological terms Shiler said, so she looked at Scott.

Scott didn't understand this either, but he often stayed with Professor X, so he could understand a little more than Polaris; he hesitated and then said: "Dr. Shiler seems to be counseling Magneto?"

"No way?!" Polaris said in surprise: "You mean they are doing psychotherapy?!"

"Stop joking; don't you remember the line Magneto made on the sun? He is very disgusted with psychotherapy; otherwise, as a long-time friend of Professor X, how could he still be in this ghost state until now?"

Polaris and Scott looked at each other, not knowing what exactly was happening, but they couldn't find a good time to go in, so they could only continue to listen outside the door.

"'Inner personality' and 'external behavior' are like two jars, connected by a pipe in the middle."

"Usually speaking, the more water in the inner personality jar, the more water there should be in the external behavior jar."

"People with a more perfect personality and a more prominent aspect have a lot of water in their jar, but this doesn't mean there will be a lot of water in the external behavior jar."

"And when there is a lot of water in the inner personality jar, but almost no water in the external behavior jar, we must consider that the pipe might have a problem."

"Unable to show the advantages of one's personality through external behavior, this kind of problem is usually called 'behavioral disorder' by us."

"Compared with psychological disorders, behavioral disorders are not caused by personality instability, but by the lack of a good connection between personality and behavior; what one wants to show cannot be shown, and what one wants to express cannot be expressed."

"Most psychological disorders come from huge psychological trauma or painful memories of a certain period; if one's will is relatively strong, or if enough time passes and the trauma is forgotten, then it is possible to self-heal."

"For example, you should also have some painful memories during the war, about the NAZI, about the concentration camps, but that era is already very far from now; even if you might have left some psychological trauma at that time, your strong mind and time have smoothed all this over."

"According to the current view, your personality is very stable, and the logic is also self-consistent; you have already thought through all the problems related to yourself; what you want to get, what you want to give up, what you need, what you don't need, you yourself are already very clear."

"Of course, this also has to do with age; after all, having lived so many more years than young people, many things, even if you can't think them through, you have thought them through."

"Simply put, you don't have any mental illness that needs treatment, and the behavioral disorder similar to mental illness that you show has nothing to do with your mental state; it is mainly caused by the external environment and the education you received, a behavioral pattern that is not good at expressing."

"Wait! Wait! What are they talking about?"

Scott narrowed his eyes; he was almost pressed against the door, so he heard more clearly than Polaris; he said: "What did I hear... war, NAZI, concentration camps? And mental illness and some kind of disorder?"

Polaris revealed a terrified expression and then said: "It's over! It must be Shiler wanting to treat Erik's illness!!!"

Polaris stared at Scott and asked: "Do you know what the few topics Erik can't stand the most are?"

Scott had a bad premonition; he looked at Polaris, and Polaris, while constantly waving her hand downward, said in an extremely fast tone: "War, NAZI, concentration camps, and that he is sick!"

With a "bang," the door was knocked open; instantly, the magnetic field erupted, and laser beams shone throughout the room.

In the room, Magneto, who was adding tea leaves to the cup, and Shiler, who had just picked up the teacup to take a sip of tea, were both stunned.
