Chapter 212 Sparks
"Has the person been sent away?" In the darkness, Purficott sat on a chair and asked in a low voice. The darkness obscured her figure and face, making it difficult to see. Her mood at this time.
"According to your wishes, she has been sent away. I have specially arranged reliable personnel to deliver her to her destination." Another figure approached her, it was Claudia : "Miss, can I ask you a question?"
Claudia looked at Perfectcott sitting in the dark and felt very confused about her thoughts.
"Why should I let that thief go? Or why should I do these things?" Purficott just looked up at Claudia and understood what she wanted to ask.
Faced with Purficott's rhetorical question, Claudia thought for a moment and then said: "What is your purpose of doing these things? In your current position, you are causing trouble for yourself by doing this. Then Miss Kallen will continue to be your enemy."
"You might as well say that I am overthrowing myself." Purficott pointed out what Claudia really wanted to express. .
With that said, Purficott stood up from the chair, walked to the window, and looked at the city outside the window.
Looking at the dark city under the night, Purficott asked Claudia: "What do you think of this city?"
"It's okay, although the streets are a bit messy. , but it is a city that is developing very well and is very dynamic." Claudia didn't know why, but still gave her own judgment and answer.
"But it is still shrouded in darkness, just like the world now." Purficott looked at the city under the night, sighed and asked: "Why did you and my parents choose to leave in the first place?" On this road? "
Regarding this question, Claudia didn't need to think about it. She answered directly: "In order to make the country better, in order to let the people be free."< br>
"Yes, in order to let the people be free, in order to make the country better." Purficott repeated it affirmatively, and then explained: "My father saw the suffering of the people, But he didn't find a solution to the problem, so he formed the Brotherhood, hoping to become the overseer in the darkness.
But I don't believe that with his intelligence, he would find the problem after he discovered it. There is no way to solve the problem.
The reason why he didn't do that was just because he backed down, or he didn't have the courage and determination to solve the problem, so he could only settle for gentle reform and darkness. supervision.”
Claudia did not express any opinion on Purficott's comments, because she actually knew that this was not a solution to the problem.
It was not that they had not discussed the solution to the problem at the beginning, but no one had any hope at that time.
“Nobles, capitalists and factory owners, everything they enjoy is based on the suffering of ordinary people. If you want everyone to be free, you must overturn everything in the past.” Ficott turned to look at Claudia and asked her: "I have confidence in my father. I believe he must have thought about this. So why didn't he choose this path in the first place?" This is what Purficott is confused about. She believes that since her father can see the suffering and injustice, he cannot think of a solution to the problem with his wisdom.
But he did not choose to overthrow all oppression and injustice, but only chose to make mild reforms and became a supervisor in the darkness. There must be a reason for him to do this.
"Because we can't imagine what a country without nobility and rulers is like." Claudia was silent for a while before answering: "At that time, your father did propose to overthrow all injustice and oppression and realize human rights." The idea of human equality, but in the end this failed to win the approval of most people.
When someone asked him, without the nobility and social elites, how would we manage the country, most people felt that. This really doesn’t work. They feel that the people at the bottom are not capable enough to run the country.”
“Wrong conclusion. No one is born with everything. They don’t know it and have no experience because they don’t have it. Opportunities for education, there are not enough educational resources! If everyone can receive adequate education and have the same job opportunities and promotion possibilities, they will also have sufficient abilities." Purficott pointedly pointed out this. This argument was wrong, but then she shook her head and said: "But considering the situation you were facing at that time, it is indeed easier to choose the path of moderate reform than to smash everything and rebuild. After all, the former is easier to achieve, and then It means that you have to face countless difficulties and tests.
Not everyone has the courage to destroy the old world and rebuild a new world, and not everyone has the courage to live in the darkness. Ignite the courage to become a torch that lights the way for others.
But this is not the reason for them not to do it. How could they defeat the seemingly invincible enemy without the courage to break everything. , win the final victory? ”
Hearing what Purfict said, Claudia was silent. She was shocked by Purfict's great courage and determination, but she did not have such determination and courage.
In the end, she could only say: "Maybe at that time we lacked the courage to take this step and become a pioneer like you."
"I can understand that you are not afraid of sacrifice. , but afraid of not knowing what to do." Purficott didn't criticize anything. She could understand her parents' choice. After all, they would tinker with the existing ones and overthrow the old ones to create something new. , this is not the courage that everyone can have, and it is also not the determination that everyone can have.
No one can guarantee that a better world can be built after breaking all the old ones, right?
"But you chose a completely different path from them. You let Miss Kallen spread hope." Claudia pointed out the purpose behind what Purficott did.
In response, Purficott just shook his head, and then said: "Karen may not be the one to overthrow everything, but she is a fire, a fire that can bring hope to others, as long as she can pass on the hope If you go out, a single spark will start a prairie fire one day.”
With Purficott’s words, it was as if something in the dark was responding to her words, and the red sun pierced the horizon. Breaking through the darkness before dawn, a ray of golden sunshine shone on her face.
