Chapter 4473

Schiller, however, shook his head. He walked to the doorway, didn't go in, just stood in the door and said: "There must be one more person in this."

"Who?"

Schiller didn't answer directly, but turned back and continued: "Fanny doesn't just have a simple lack of boundaries. Her various boundary-crossing behaviors are essentially trying to suppress others by excessively occupying others' domains. This phenomenon is very common, you should have seen it too."

Others also agreed with what he said. Many times, in the case of strangers, taking advantage might really just be wanting to take advantage, and lack of sense might really just be lack of sense.

But in relatively familiar and close relationships, it's not just like this. Many people just use excessive occupation of others' domains to gain an advantage in social interaction.

For example, in the relationship between roommates, some people will use others' things without permission, and they don't change despite repeated admonitions, and even tearing their faces and saying it doesn't work. Many people will think this is their bad habit, love to take small advantages, but in fact, it's not like this. They are trying to establish their dominant position in this way.

It can be compared to the wolf pack, where the greatest power the alpha wolf has is the ability to distribute prey resources. After a successful hunt, he can eat first, or let the wolves he is close to eat first. And if a wolf he dislikes comes over, he will drive it away. It's the same when changed to people.

In a relatively closed relationship, such as family relationships, roommate relationships, or office relationships, etc. The power of resource allocation needs to be fought for. Whoever gets this power can form social suppression. Essentially, it's not about greed for one or two tissues, one or two mouthfuls of snacks, but using this method to indicate "I can distribute your resources at will, so I am higher than you".

Some people who do this may not even realize it themselves. They just feel that it's interesting to provoke others' emotions in this way, so they don't change despite repeated admonitions. But this is also a kind of instinctive manipulation behavior, not just for saving money or greed.

"Eager to control, because they think someone has broken out of control." Schiller continued. "This kind of behavior of fighting for dominant position is usually aimed at people he thinks he cannot suppress due to innate conditions."

This is also easy to understand. If you feel that a person is inferior to you in all aspects, you won't feel that he is a threat to your status. Especially in social occasions, you will feel that you are comprehensively superior to him. This sense of security, on the contrary, will be conducive to building your relationship, just like an alpha wolf and an ordinary wolf.

However, as an inferior who is naturally inferior to others in all aspects, but also wants to fight for the position of alpha wolf, he can only choose to take the initiative. Use exquisite hunting skills and fierce fighting methods to make up for the lack of innate conditions. In the wolf pack, the alpha wolf is not necessarily the largest in size, but must be the fiercest.

"Fanny is very jealous of you." Schiller looked at Jenna and said, "She feels she is not as good as you, but wants to surpass you. So she uses the method of constantly occupying your domain to try to suppress you."

"Maybe." Jenna said. "Actually, I can feel it. But I can't stop it. I want to get out of this circle, but I still have to go to school, occasionally stay in the dormitory, and can't get out completely."

"This can be said to be a long-term behavior pattern. However, any behavior pattern, after short-term stimulation, will also have short-term stereotypical outbursts." Schiller glanced at the bed and then said, "When you came to get things, the bed shouldn't have been moved by anyone, right?"

Jenna nodded and said: "No. Although I didn't stay here last night, I can be sure that Fanny didn't sleep in my bed last night. Things haven't been moved."

"Didn't sleep in your bed yesterday, but suddenly slept in your bed today. This means she was stimulated. This caused her to carry out short-term compulsive stereotypical behavior, that is, to suppress you by occupying your domain."

"But when I came back, there was no one in the dormitory." Jenna frowned and said, "Fanny shouldn't know I came back at all. I didn't see her all day yesterday, and I didn't talk to her, so what stimulation did she receive?"

"That's why I said there is one more person." Schiller said. "This person played an important role in it."

"Perlota." Jenna said thoughtfully, "They often get together to speak ill of me. And Perlota likes to use Fanny as a gun, and often instigates her to find trouble with me. But even if Perlota spoke ill of me again, there must be a reason, right? I haven't offended them recently."

Barry, however, seemed to have thought of something and said: "The person who saw you might not be Milos, but Perlota. This can also explain why she could recognize you at first glance. Although it's also possible that Perlota told Milos your characteristics, it's still more reasonable for her to see it with her own eyes."

"I understand." Gordon said, "Perlota saw you go out at night, so she went to tell Milos that you might have seen him go out to commit a crime. But at the same time, she went to tell your roommate Fanny that you dressed very beautifully today, or that you had a tall and handsome boyfriend, etc. This stimulated Fanny, letting her want to retaliate against you by occupying your domain, so she slept in your bed. This caused Milos to come to silence her in the middle of the night and kill the wrong person."

"Why would Perlota want to kill Fanny?" Barry frowned and asked, "Shouldn't the person she is most jealous of be Jenna?"

"That is indeed the case. However, Jenna already has a very obvious intention to leave this circle, and no one can stop her. Jenna obviously won't threaten Perlota's real interests." Schiller said.

"Rodriguez's words made me think of a joke inopportunely: when a bear is chasing you, you don't need to run faster than the bear, you just need to run faster than your companion. There is another truth in this, which is that you don't need to run faster than the fastest companion, you just need to exceed the companion closest to you. Miss Jenna's relationship with her two roommates is obviously like this. She is the fastest person, obviously there will be no danger. But Perlota and Fanny are on par. So although they will have complaints about Jenna, they regard each other as threatening opponents. This truth I summarized was affirmed by Rodriguez—of course, after the matter was over."

"I don't understand," Gordon said again, "What competition is there between them that can reach the point of killing?"

"That would be too bloody." Victor frowned and sighed.

"Haven't heard who she likes," Jonathan said, "Fanny is a very hardworking girl, often soaking in the laboratory, and also has some talent in chemistry..."

"Which department is Perlota in?" Schiller asked.

"Uh, she is a computer major," Jenna thought for a moment and said, "But she wants to change majors."

"Why?"

"Because of Brainiac." Jenna said, "Who can surpass Brainiac in the field of computer science? Of course, she doesn't want to be any master, mainly because the probability of this major going to Krypton is relatively high. That side needs talents who can optimize the Kryptonian computer system, but she doesn't seem to want to go there very much, feeling that it's too far and the conditions are not good."

"Which major does she plan to change to?"

"Not very clear, but this is not up to her, after all, the number of people recruited by each department has strict requirements, and it also depends on whether the professor has a quota. She asked me if she could transfer to the Psychology Department. I said there must be no quota in the Psychology Department, so she gave up."

"There is indeed no quota in the Psychology Department," Schiller said, "But her main reason for giving up is that the development prospects of this major are not good enough. Moreover, the assessment of the medical school is too strict. If she cannot successfully enter the medical school to study clinical psychology or psychiatry, but only holds a bachelor's degree, the employment situation will be even more severe."

"But chemistry is different." Schiller changed the subject, looked at Jonathan, and then said, "With Brainiac, the employment prospects of chemistry have improved instead. Because the chemical industry and the pharmaceutical industry are no longer wrapped by capital, the marketability of development is reduced, but the academic nature is improved. The subsidies given by various project teams are very high, which is a good time to produce results. Otherwise, Brainiac wouldn't have released Professor Crane..."

"Schiller!" Jonathan stared at him.

Schiller just glanced at him and said: "If you hadn't produced many results recently, Brainiac wouldn't have released you to come here and fight with me."

"... Are you saying this is taking care of my emotions?"

"No, it's to let me scold you and remind you not to be too arrogant."

Jonathan closed his mouth and didn't speak. He couldn't scold Schiller, so there was no need to ask for trouble.

"So, the real contradiction between Perlota and Fanny is not some love and love. Perlota wants to change majors, but the quota on Brainiac's side is too tight, one radish and one pit. If the old people don't leave, the new people don't want to come in. In this case, the best way is to kill Fanny, so that there is a gap in the quota, and she will have a chance."

"It sounds too absurd." Victor commented. "I find it hard to imagine that someone would kill because of this kind of thing."

"Then what do you think people should kill for?"

"For example, the inspiration he suddenly got from a certain computer program, thinking that performing a certain death ritual can allow his soul to ascend into the great electronic system. So he chose Fanny as a sacrifice..."

Brainiac suddenly made a noise, covering up what Victor said next. Gordon said with disdain: "What are you noisy about? Do you think there is still room for these people present to be corrupted by these words? Which one of their brains doesn't have thoughts that are a hundred times more terrifying?"

Then he looked at Victor again and said: "You are also rusty after not doing it for a long time. This kind of cult ritual is a thing of the black gang era two versions ago. In my opinion, Perlota used Fanny's death as a symbol to announce the beginning of another crazy serial murder case..."

Victor and Gordon both looked at Schiller, seemingly wanting him to judge who was right. Schiller was speechless and said: "Is there a possibility that the murder cases you mentioned are already outdated? Gotham is now a normal city. Killing for personal interests is the most common murder in ordinary people's society."
