"Neither of you have a rest yet? I'm going to drink a glass of whiskey, and you are welcome to join in, how about it?" Arthur walked in through the dim light leaking from the study door, wearing a dark blue checkered pajamas. Then he saw Lan Li sitting on the sofa and Edith standing at the door. He didn't know what happened, but he knew that he was not the only person who couldn't sleep tonight.
Edith raised her right hand, "I sign up."
Feeling the sight of Arthur and Edith, Lan Li also nodded, "Give me a cup."
Arthur cheered.
Edith and Lan Li exchanged glances, and there was a sense of helplessness in their eyes-this is the Arthur they are most familiar with, and then Edith went on to say, "Everyone is persuading me to rest. It should be no less than you. I thought you could give some better advice."
"Find a psychiatrist." Lan Li then gave an opinion. This is what Edith needs now, and her mental state needs professional help.
Edith rolled her eyes and walked to the side and sat down heavily. She braced her bipod on the coffee table, exuding unruly and casual all over her body, and then complained, "Huh, you Now it's super boring."
"He has always been boring, okay?" Arthur walked over with whiskey and handed them to Edith and Renly respectively. "Humor is not his strong suit, thank you."
Arthur's complaint made Edith laugh happily, "I agree." But Lanly also rarely refuted, so he accepted the "attack" of Arthur and Edith frankly.
Arthur sat down on the sofa on the other side, and the three siblings formed a triangle, scattered in different corners of the study, keeping their distance coolly.
Because Lan Li did not refute, after the laughter, the whole study became quiet. After hesitating for a while, Edith tried to say, "Lan Li, you know it’s not your fault, it’s my decision, you You should stop blaming yourself." She could perceive the depression deep in Lan Li's heart.
"Don't worry, what I am best at is to excuse myself." Lan Li laughed softly and said indifferently.
Lan Li chuckled softly and pushed Edith away in an understatement, but Edith was not confused, "Philip is worried about you."
Lan Li’s smile stopped slightly at the corner of his mouth, "Philip is also worried about you." Seeing what Edith wanted to say, Lan Li cut off her words in advance, "This is about you, not about Mine. Let’s not divert the focus. Edith, you need professional help and don’t try to escape."
"Lan Li..." Edith wanted to continue arguing-it was obvious that Lan Li was evading, so why did she become evading?
"Stop! Stop!" Arthur couldn't help intervening. "You need help, and you also need help. Here, I am the only one who does not need help. So, you all stop, okay? Don't do it anymore. Pretend that you are okay and stop trying to push the problem to other people. No!" Arthur said here, paused slightly, his temper a little irritable, and then took a deep breath, trying to slow down and soften his tone, "here Not Bayswater."
Since childhood, they have become accustomed to the way George and Elizabeth get along, and now that they have left Bayswater and come to the Prince's Garden, they really shouldn't repeat the old traditions of the Hall family anymore. Arthur really didn't want to see those meaningless quarrels again.
Both Lanly and Edith fell silent, watching the whiskey in their hands quietly, the amber liquid was flowing.
Then Lan Li said softly, "...This sentence comes from the mouth of the person who forgot to take care of his beard."
"..." Arthur felt that he was about to explode. He has now finished trimming, and the scum has become decent and clean, and he is still the subject of talk again. He deeply believes that this matter may be a long time. Can't wash off.
Lanly and Edith both laughed happily, and even exchanged glances, as if they had completed a tacit pass. Arthur widened his eyes and expressed strong protest, "I'm very busy, okay? I'm just very busy! Don't try to turn the head to me, you are the ones who need help."
Lan Li and Edith did not continue to talk, but this made Arthur feel awkward.
He knows, they all know that Arthur is a type who pays great attention to his own life image, otherwise, how could they make complaints about Arthur again and again because of their sloppy beard? Precisely because of this, Arthur's embarrassed image also shows his worry, he is the same as them.
They all need help.
Arthur raised his head and took a sip of whiskey, his expression frowned, and spread his hands, "Very well, now the three neuroses are gathered for a meeting. Why, are we going to shoot "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Asylum"?"
"I guess, according to the Hall family's measurement standards, we are still in the normal range. No, we should be regarded as a model. Even if it is a mental disorder, we still have not lost our etiquette." Lan Li said calmly , So that the smiles at the corners of Arthur and Edith's mouth rose.
Shaking the wine glass gently, the curvature of the corner of her mouth slowly calmed down, Edith's thoughts settled down, as if she had considered it for a long time, she said again, "If I said, I still want to go back to the battlefield?"
The calm voice lingered like smoke and mist, the coldness of the night began to jump at the fingertips, trembling slightly, there was not much movement but it blew up like thunder in the ears, and then, the silence was like the tide. Usually turbulent, only the halo refracted by the whiskey swayed.
Edith knew that now was not the best time to discuss the topic, but the problem was that there seemed to be no best time. The reason why I found Lan Li tonight is because Edith herself is full of confusion. She needs to talk. Although she doesn't know what she wants to talk about, she doesn't even know whether she wants to talk deep in her heart, but... …As a result, the first topic was heavy, and Edith herself was a little confused, and her nervousness grabbed her heart in this way.
"Have you figured it out?" It was Arthur who spoke first, with a hint of hesitation in his heavy voice, but after all he did not question or object directly.
Edith was slightly surprised. She was surprised by Arthur's opening and the content of the words. She asked, "Then what's your opinion?"
Arthur let out a long sigh, "If possible, I also hope that things can be simpler, so we don't have to worry about it every day; but I think... you should have your own choice, not change yourself for our sake. . In any case, we will stand here, you know how to find the way home."
Edith’s nose was a little sour. This was what she wanted to hear most. When she was alone in the front line chasing the truth and recording the facts, she needed to know that she was not fighting alone. Her ideals, her persistence, her battles... everything is meaningful, even if it is a weak force, she hopes to change the world.
Arthur seemed to be aware of Edith’s move, and his emotions were a bit turbulent. He hurriedly continued to speak to cover up his panic, "Scene words, these are just circumstance words. You and I know that, I can’t change your mind. Instead of being a bad person to stop you, it is better to pretend to be a good person to make you perfect."
The fierce and rude words had no deterrent effect at all, which made Edith chuckled lightly, and said very ably, "Yes, yes, I know."
Arthur grinned his teeth viciously, glanced at Edith, and turned to look at Lan Li, "Aren't you going to say something?"
Lan Li always sat quietly beside him, never joined the topic. Now that he heard Arthur's words, he looked towards Edith, "What's there?"
It's not good, it's not bad, but a question.
Edith thought about it carefully. It was a temperature problem.
Lan Li just noticed. In fact, Edith did not give positive affirmation from beginning to end. She just threw out a series of hypotheses. Even if Arthur asked, she did not answer positively. Instead, she explored Arthur with rhetorical questions. Position. This in itself shows Edith's confusion and hesitation.
This is not surprising. Edith has just gone through the test of life and death, and Edith has not had time to sort out her thoughts. She may also be in a state of confusion now, looking for answers. In Lan Li's view, instead of answering Edith's question ~www.novelhall.com~, it is better to guide Edith to think and let her find the answer by herself.
Even Lan Li, he didn't have the correct answer. Because this is life-there is no right answer in life, and no one can give the right answer. You can only follow your heart, go step by step, make different choices and different attempts on different paths, and find your own The scenery of the road of life, when you reach the end, you can find your own answer. What really matters is that every answer found in the end is correct.
"There... there is nothing." Edith said hesitantly, with deep thoughts in her eyes again, "There is no water, no food, and no silence. Everything is turbulent. One second of peace is possible and the next. You must escape. There are panic, death, and darkness, and there are many, many dead bodies. I don’t know, I don’t know what is there. Maybe, there is the truth there, the truth that belongs to our society, and there are others besides us. A world."
"I...I, I just want to go back."
Edith’s words were a little confused, and she was not able to find a clear context after tossing them over and over, but Renly and Arthur watched her incomparably. Those fragmented words contained her confusion, paranoia, and Wounds and scars that they can't see.
"It's like an addiction, there is always a motivation to drive me, trying to go back." Edith was completely immersed in her own world, and her disturbing thoughts opened up like this, "But in fact, I am also afraid of me. I was also scared. Every minute and every second I was there, I was asking myself why I came back here again and again, but I never found the answer."
Edith paused for a moment, "Can you give me the answer?" She raised her gaze, with a blank expression in her eyes.
