Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 5955 (Five Thousand Nine Hundred and Fifty Five) Threshold

"If he can't feel it, that's his business." The brown-handed man laughed.

"You can laugh when you say this now," said the Gray Hand Man.

"Can't you do it too?" asked the Brown-Handed Man.

"Yeah, it seems like we don't care about these things now." said the man with gray hands.

“You didn’t really care about it that much before, did you?” asked the brown-handed man.

"Yes, but it's different." The Gray Hand Man laughed.

"Can you tell me how it's different?" said the brown-handed man with a smile.

"Yes, we were kept in the dark before." said the man with gray hands.

"You know nothing?" asked the Brown-Handed Man.

"Yes." The Gray Hand Man said, "I'm sure I didn't think as much as I do now."

"You and I have become lively and sober again," said the man with brown hands.

"Is there any necessary connection between being lively and sober?" Gray Hand said, "I'm quite interested in this."

The Brown-Handed Man added, "I am interested, too, but only in the connection between the two. I know what you mean."

"I see. Your interest does not include the word 'necessarily' that I just mentioned." The Gray Hand said, "I guess that's it."

"Yes." said the man with brown hands.

"In other words, you don't think there is a necessary connection between the two?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

The brown-handed man smiled and said, "I guess I don't think so. Even if I do, it's not appropriate for you and me to say something like 'inevitable' in this situation, right?"

"Oh, yes. If you say 'necessarily', it won't be so comfortable, right?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." The brown-handed man said, "But what would you think if it wasn't so uncomfortable?"

"I think the same as you do," said the Gray Hand Man. "So you also think there is no necessary connection between the two?" asked the Brown Hand Man.

"I can only say that I don't think so." said the man with gray hands.

"I understand." The brown-handed man said, "You are afraid to say it absolutely."

The Gray Hand Man smiled and said, "But I still think there is a connection."

"Tell me, what kind of connection it is." said the man with brown hands.

"Maybe, in some situations, the more awake a person is, the more lively they are likely to be," said the Gray Hand Man.

"Almost." said the man with brown hands.

"Do you agree?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"It's not that I agree, but that's what I think," said the brown-handed man.

The Gray Hands Man asked again, "Can you explain it in more detail?"

"Of course you can." The brown-handed man said, "Take me as an example. Before, I was not sober, and I was just an emotionless tool working for someone. In that situation, I would only follow that person's requirements and do things. Overall, I was very depressed and did not show too many emotions. I didn't even dare to show too many emotions, so how could I be lively? At that time, I was a reserved tool, and I could even be said to be old-fashioned."

The Gray Hand said: "If you want to talk about old-fashioned, I am also like that. I am not clear-headed. I am just a tool, a tool of repression."

"Is it repression that brings about old-fashionedness?" asked the brown-handed man.

"I can only say that it is related." The Gray Hand Man said, "If people can be more lively, at least they won't be depressed, right?"

"To really get lively," said the Brown-Handed Man.

"Yes, what I mean is to be truly lively, rather than being old-fashioned and reserved on the inside but lively on the outside," said the Gray Hand Man.

"It seems that being lively also has a threshold." said the man with brown hands.

“That threshold doesn’t seem to be that easy to cross.” Gray Hand Man laughed, “Especially for a tool like mine.”
