The development of things and people's understanding of the world often have to go through four stages of affirmation, negation, negation of negation, and seriousness, and you lose. The great philosopher Hegel discovered the first three stages and wrote it into his book " logic".
For example, Ed's understanding of Lux is like this. He experienced in turn that Lux is so cute. My wife will smash his dog's head if she dares to object. Complicated three-dimensional characters cannot be generalized in black and white and everything is a conspiracy of the producer. What are the four stages.
Now that the fourth stage has been brutally rejected, and I am alive and smiling in front of him, he has to silently return to the third stage.
After Luxe greeted him, she went back to take a shower and changed into loose home clothes, but even such plain clothes couldn't hide her natural beauty. Even with Ed's critical vision of dealing with CC all the year round, he has to admit that the girls around him are indeed pleasing to the eye.
The two walked side by side in the private garden of Klein's house. Lux's hair was not completely dry, and the tiny water droplets on the tips of her hair were faintly visible in the reflection of the light. According to the experience of dealing with CC all the year round, this kind of long hair is very troublesome to take care of. When there is no time to dry it naturally, it is best to wipe it with a towel until it does not drip, and then dry it evenly with a low-power device. hurt hair. Lux didn't choose to let Ed wait for a long time, and came in a hurry with half-wet hair, as if she was so tender that she could squeeze out the water just after taking a bath.
Ed is not good at chatting, especially not good at chatting and laughing with unfamiliar women. When you are with Alice, you are the most free, and you can say whatever you want; when you are with CC, you can also complain without any scruples, although sometimes you will be retorted; but with Lux Know what to say.
Fortunately, Lux was guiding the topic from beginning to end. When a topic was almost out of words, Lux would move on to the next topic without a trace. Conversation is very natural, and even creates an illusion of intimacy, but when you think about it, it actually keeps a certain distance. Ed did not know it himself, but he knew it was a great social skill.
"Dr. Lingos, who else would like to listen to songs besides me?" Lux's voice was ethereal and sweet, a natural singer, a miracle that can only be born once even in genetic adjustment, "I remember you It was said that music is the best catalyst for inspiration."
"Well, Miss Lux, there's no need to use honorifics all the time, right?" It wasn't to get closer, it just sounded uncomfortable. "We're considered the same age, so we don't need to address me like that."
"The Doctor is someone my father and I respect very much. I think honorifics are fine. But if you want—" Lux tilted her head slightly in thought, her long hair slid from one side to her face , she stretched out her fingers and tucked her hair behind her ears, raised her mouth slightly and blinked, "Mr. Ed, please take care of me~"
Ed nodded, pretending to be calm, silently reciting pi to resist the sugar-coated cannonballs of capitalism.
"If possible, please call me by my first name." Lux kept a close but not restrained distance from Eddard, "So does Mr. Eddard have any other favorite musicians? "
"No, I know you alone in the entire entertainment industry." He felt that this sounded too embarrassing, it was like a line only a brainless fan would say, but unfortunately this is the truth.
"Mr. Ed, don't make fun of me." Lux smiled shyly, and picked up a few names, "These guys are very similar in style to me, maybe they are the type you like? What's Mr. Ed's opinion? Woolen cloth?"
"I don't know any of them." He shook his head helplessly, "It's not a polite word, I really know you one of all the stars."
Lux opened her eyes wide in surprise, opened her mouth slightly, then quickly covered her mouth with her fingers as if she had noticed her rudeness, and bowed her head in embarrassment. After a few seconds, she raised her head and gave Ed a bright smile, her sincere tone was unquestionable: "I believe that Mr. Ed is telling the truth!"
Fake, all fake. The person behind the pi can't remember, he began to memorize the natural constants.
Lux did not continue to look for topics, and walked silently with a smile on her face, looking sideways at Ed from time to time. After a while, the small garden turned around, and the two found a seat to sit face to face. Lux took the initiative to pour a cup of black tea for each of them.
There were seven or eight Hellos rolling around, calling Lux's name in an electronic voice. This is not CC's Harrow pillow, but the real first magic machine of the universe century, the electronic pet version of Harrow produced by the entertainment department of Anaheim Electronic Industries. Lux leaned down and patted this and that, looking very happy. Ed also bought one out of curiosity back then, but after less than a day, he felt too noisy to return it.
You can no longer be led away later, and you must occasionally take the initiative in the topic. He thought for a while and found a possible topic: "Lacus, you just said that I said that music is the best catalyst for inspiration, I remember that it was a sentence I wrote in a paper, do you still read Scientific papers?"
"Normally I wouldn't read it, but I've read all of Mr. Ed's papers." Lux pushed Harrow away and turned her attention to the person opposite, "Although the science part is completely incomprehensible. I have skipped it all, but I especially like to read your foreword and review. The philosophical and speculative expressions in it make people think that Mr. Ed is not a scientist but a thinker. You also like to quote the universe century ago. of famous quotes, and thanks to Mr. Ed, my reading has expanded a lot."
She's right, Ed's crazy stuff like a review in all his important papers, with all kinds of weird content, basically writing whatever comes to his mind. But Lux's familiar tone, if she didn't really read it, or the Klein family had a team of staff who studied her summed it up for her.
"Thinkers are too exaggerated, it's just random nonsense." Lux was so loud that he couldn't listen to himself, "Just like famous painters leave unique marks on their works, so do I. It's just doing something similar. It may be a bit shameless to brag like this, let's put it another way, it's more like someone who travels abroad secretly engraving a visit here on a scenic spot."
"I think you underestimate yourself, Mr. Ed." Lux looked directly into Ed's eyes, and her confident eyes did not make anyone doubt the authenticity of the words, "Maybe in Mr. Ed's view, those are just for the purpose of making the paper Not too boring gibberish, but in my opinion it's thinking about science, about the world itself. Many parts of the early papers were immature, and many later papers even overturned previous ideas, but in my case In my eyes, these are all practical explorations and progress step by step.”
Ed didn't know what to say, had this staff team put so much effort into themselves? His own private goods are actually doing the same thing from beginning to end, that is, he tried to tell CC countless times—
"Are you trying to interpret the world with your own worldview?" He saw the expressionless self in Lux's sapphire eyes, no, he was just complaining and complaining. "In the paper, I especially like to use 'this world' ', 'This world' is like jumping out of the perspective of all human beings."
"Lacus, you're joking, how can people look beyond their own race. We are even constrained by language. As long as there are words that are not in language, we don't even have corresponding concepts. Put aside the restrictions of race. It's even more foolish." Ed picked up the cup and took a sip of tea to hide his embarrassment, "Don't forget that I'm about the same age as you, it's just a cynicism in the second year of middle school. Don't worry about it."
"The self-pity and self-pity of the weak is nothing but a moan. Mr. Ed is a man with strength."
"What power do I have?" He remembered TurnA, remembered CC's evaluation of himself, and smiled, "It's just a robot, nothing to be rare."
"I don't know who made this evaluation, but it is absolutely wrong. Just like the father of the adjuster has changed the social structure of the entire human being, Mr. Ed in my eyes has such a powerful force. People. They are not vassals of a certain creed, but have their own independent worldview. Such people can change the world."
Lux and Ed looked at each other for a while, then suddenly lowered their heads in embarrassment, took a sip from the teacup, and drank the water as elegant as a swan and cute as a hamster.
Ed knows in his heart that acting is all acting. Really, the more beautiful a woman is, the more complicated it is. He thought of CC, thought of Diana, maybe Haman, where have all the silly white sweets in this world gone? Sure enough, it's still Alice.
"I'm sorry, I'm talking to myself. It's just that I was very interested in Mr. Ed's ideas when I read the thesis, and I was a little carried away."
"Why, I'm still very happy to hear people praise me." When he leaned down and put down the teacup, he smelled a fragrance, Lux and CC probably didn't use the same shampoo, "Mr. , Some media describe you as a singing vase too blind."
"Even if I praise me as a vase, I will be very happy. I really put a lot of effort into singing." Lux put her hands together on her chest and tilted her head slightly, "Just three days later I have an A concert, I wonder if Mr. Ed is interested?"
…
"He agreed?" Siegel Klein leaned back in the chair relaxedly, enjoying his daughter's shoulder squeeze.
"Yes." Lux said, the strength in her hand did not decrease at all, "I also asked me for a signed photo, saying it was for my friend's sister."
"What kind of person do you think Dr. Adrian is?"
"He was always on guard and seemed to be a little prejudiced against me. And the fans pretended not to be alike at all, not even remembering my birthday. But he was the same person as in the paper, very interesting." She recalled the conversation during the day. , couldn't help showing a knowing smile, "The most interesting thing is that he really only knew me as a star. I was really shocked at that time. Even Senator Aznabu or Uncle Sarah can be with my father. Let’s talk about the topic of the entertainment industry, sir? It’s impossible to imagine a life without any entertainment at all. It’s like living in another world, I should be a very lonely person…”
"... Now you've seen all three of them. How does he compare to Patrick's son? How about Aznabubi?"
"Aslan's three views have not yet been formed, and his character is relatively weak. Compared with him, Mr. Ed is like an adult and a child. The words of Senator Aznabu..." Lux put away her smile and thought about it. For a moment, "Both are people with unique worldviews, but completely different worldviews, and these two people will probably be incompatible. For us—"
"Lux." Klein sighed with a long sigh, "You are my comprehension, my heir, and my like-minded partner, but you are also my daughter after all. You don't have to—"
"I understand, Father." Lux interrupted his explanation, "I always sacrifice something for the ideal, I understand, I understood it very early. This is not only Father's ideal, but also my ideal. ."
"If possible, I don't want to sacrifice my daughter's happiness." Klein's voice showed a trace of guilt, "You are born in such a family, as Siegel Klein's daughter, this is helpless. Things. I can't give you the freedom to choose, but at least, at least I want to give you the freedom to choose."
"... Father Father?"
"Last month, my suit was too old, and I didn't have time to order it, so I decided to buy a new one." Klein closed his eyes, as if talking to himself, "There are a lot of suits in the store. , some are cheap but the style is simple and easy to match. Some are expensive but have unique taste, each with its own style. I hesitated for a long time, and finally I suddenly figured it out. Although there is no choice but to wear a suit to a meeting, but we The family is not short of money, there is no need to consider the price at the beginning, you can choose what you like the most.”
"Father..." Lux's voice trembled slightly.
Klein closed his eyes and didn't answer.
She was silent for a while, then spoke again, with a hint of lightness in her tone: "Please don't speak of the politician's daughter as if it were some kind of curse? Maybe your daughter is very lucky, can you have both? Your mother, Izumi-shita, will surely bless me."
"Then my daughter prefers that piece of bear paw?" Klein finally laughed, "Old fried? Or tender?"
"Sir Father!" She acted coquettishly at her father for a while, and then made a somewhat dazed voice, "...I don't know either, this is too far away and extravagant for me to do it without weighing the pros and cons. Decisions are like rolling dice with your eyes closed."
"Don't analyze, use your intuition." Klein recalled the appearance of his deceased wife after a long time. "It's okay to be capricious once in a while in a place like this. This is the only compensation I can make to you."
"...If possible," a figure flashed in Lux's mind, "I'd like to have a chat with Mr. Ed, he's really a very interesting person."
