Chapter 5178 (Five Thousand One Hundred and Seventy Eight)

“It occurred to me… In my eyes… The blue-armored people are not human. Although they are not ordinary blue-armored people, but… they are not human either.” The man said, “Because my situation is really bad, and I… and I asked questions and didn’t get any response from those blue-armored people… I… I thought I was not a human… When I think about it deeply, it’s like… it’s like I categorized myself. In my eyes, those blue-armored people belong to… the category of not-human. And I myself was categorized as not-human. In this way, I… seem to be closer to those blue-armored people… To put it bluntly, I seem to be more similar to those blue-armored people. If I didn’t categorize it so randomly, if… if I didn’t categorize myself as not-human, then… then I don’t seem to be that similar to those non-human blue-armored people.”

“How could you think so much when you were in that situation?” asked the man with gray hands.

“Actually… even when I was thinking deeply about it, I was thinking about it while thinking about other things,” the man answered.

“How could you think so deeply while thinking about other things?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“At that time, I was mainly thinking about my situation, rather than… whether I was a human being,” the man said.

Hearing the other party say this, the Gray Hand Man felt that he had asked another important question. After all, if this person could think of questions like what kind of people are human and what kind of people are classified when he thought he was in another world, it proved that he usually had something related to this kind of thing buried in his heart, and although it was buried, it would emerge involuntarily at certain times.

Gray Hand asked directly: “Do you usually think about the question of which kind of people are human or not?”

“Usually?” the man asked, “In the real world?”

“Yes,” said the Gray Hand Man.

“It seems… it seems so.” The man said, “But actually what I’m thinking about is not… which kind of people are not human… What I’m thinking is… the blue-armored people are not human.”

The Gray Hand said, “You have already determined that the Blue Armored People are not human, but you still call them Blue Armored People. When you call them that, do you feel anything strange?”

The man said, “I thought about this question at first, but I think… a lot of people just call them that, it’s just a name. In fact, I think calling them ‘blue-armored trash’, ‘blue-armored animals’, ‘blue-armored livestock’ are all quite appropriate, but… although many people don’t consider blue-armored people as human beings, when they talk about them, they just… call them ‘blue-armored people’, everyone is used to it, so it doesn’t matter anymore, it’s just a name… it seems… it seems that I don’t need to be so picky about words.”

“You said that when you first thought about this problem, you were actually thinking about the problem of words, right?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“If you put it that way… I admit it.” The man said, “Sometimes people think about something and choose the right words… As they think about it… they don’t think it’s necessary to choose such words all the time.”

“How did you feel when you said ‘blue-armored animal’?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“This statement is more in line with the facts than the ‘blue-armored man’, but… even if we don’t talk about this, in fact… it may not be a big deal.” said the man.
