Chapter 5869 (Five Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty Nine) Cold Water

The Gray Hand Man said, “Just fantasizing about it. It feels pretty good.”

The brown-handed man said, “Maybe if you keep fantasizing about it, it will come true?”

“How does it come true?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“When we open our eyes again, we all find ourselves as children,” said the brown-handed man.

The Gray Hand said, “Again…”

The brown-handed man hummed.

“Are you satisfied with this?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Are you not satisfied with being able to become a child who never grows up?” asked the man with brown hands.

The Gray Hand said, “That’s not what I’m talking about.”

“What?” said the brown-handed man, “I thought of that, too.”

The Gray Hand Man said, “Tell me what you think of.”

The brown-handed man said, “You know.”

“You’re not speaking directly again?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“To what extent?” asked the brown-handed man again.

The Gray Hand said, “Until it’s a little straighter than when I said ‘again’.”

The brown-handed man said, “Okay, okay, don’t you just want me to say ‘when I opened my eyes again’ to prove that you and I have left this environment?”

The Gray Hand said, “Almost. You are still a little reserved.”

“Isn’t this already straightforward?” said the brown-handed man. “How can we get out of this environment?”

Gray Hand Man said: “What if there is another way?”

“I hope we can find it.” said the man with brown hands.

“Oh?” said the Gray Hand Man, “Why do I feel that what you said is not what you wanted to say just now?”

“Because you said you hope to find it.” The brown-handed man said, “Since you said so, if I still say something unpleasant, it will be too much of a spoiler.” The gray-handed man said, “In order not to spoil the fun, you said what I said?”

“Of course.” The brown-handed man said, “You clearly said you hoped to find it, can I pour cold water on you?”

“Do you really need to throw this cold water?” asked the man with gray hands.

“What’s wrong?” asked the Brown Hand Man, “Are you discouraged now?”

“It’s just a matter of facing reality.” said the man with gray hands.

“What is reality?” the Brown-Handed Man asked again.

Gray Hand Man said: “This is reality.”

“Only what has already happened can be considered reality, right?” asked the brown-handed man.

“So you are full of hope?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I’m just speaking from a logical point of view.” The brown-handed man said, “Is it true that only what has already happened can be called reality?”

“Is what we are about to face reality?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“It should be considered as such.” The brown-handed man said, “But how can you be sure whether you will face it?”

The man with gray hands said, “I think so. So I think you don’t need to pour cold water on me.”

“The cold water is in your heart?” asked the man with brown hands.

“It’s in your heart too, right?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I didn’t say that.” said the man with brown hands.

“Then after I said ‘What if there is another way?’, when you said ‘I hope I can find it’, the change in tone was not natural?” said the Gray Hand Man.

“My tone is unnatural, and you obviously heard it.” The brown-handed man said, “If I still say what I thought before, it will be regarded as pouring cold water on you, right?”

“When I said you don’t need to pour cold water on me, it means that the cold water is indeed in my heart.” The Gray Hand Man said, “If I already have cold water in my heart, I won’t feel much whether you pour it on me or not. Such so-called pouring cold water will lose its effect. Pouring cold water on a place that is not hot or dry will not seem abrupt.”
