Chapter 40
Li Bo struggled to get through the remaining hour or so, and felt his nerves a little weak. He got up from the bed very tiredly and continued his performance the next day.
Repeating these contents over and over again within two days amplifies people's negative emotions. When Li Bo was playing the role of the abuser and got a little carried away, he suddenly encountered such a gap and felt so angry that he was about to explode.
Wang Hai was immersed in it without noticing it. He was imitating the way his brother Li usually spoke to Chi Xia and found it quite interesting.
Li Bo usually boasts that he speaks harshly, but he never expected that these words would be so harsh and piercing when they were said to him. He just felt his ears were buzzing.
He even wanted to curse the leader who was mocking him. Even though you didn't do anything, wasn't it you who started all this?
Doesn't he know that these things are disgusting and excessive? He probably knows a little bit, but since he is not the one who has to endure it, of course he doesn't care. Moreover, he will feel a sense of superiority when he imposes it on others and puts Chi Xia, who has better grades than him, into such a situation.
But only when the knife actually falls on your body, you will know how much it hurts, and that verbal violence can hurt people to such an extent.
When the dorm auntie came in to ask about the situation and no one said a word for him, he even wanted to shake those people and ask them, "Do you have no sense of justice? You are all malicious and no one says a word for justice?"
Li Bo's experience was over, but he felt extremely nauseous and even thought that his roommates were hideous.
Next, Xu Li experienced the pain of being hurt and isolated by his roommates, but no one stood up to tell the truth even though someone saw it. It turns out that there are no bystanders in school violence, only perpetrators. Watching roommates bully others but turning a blind eye is also a kind of harm.
When Wang Hai was bullied by someone else's lackeys in the dormitory, Wang Hai felt that the other party was unable to distinguish right from wrong, had a problem with his brain and was brainwashed. He had done nothing wrong, but the other party was so confident that he said it was a personal grudge?! This was clearly school bullying! But he was outnumbered and could only endure the bullying of a group of people with distorted values.
When Wang Hai was bullied to the point of mental breakdown, he suddenly remembered that he had bullied Chi Xia just because of Li Bo's instigation. But now he thought about what Chi Xia had done wrong? He just listened to Li Bo's one-sided words and bullied him in the atmosphere of the dormitory? What cruel things had he done?
Cheng Yang loved playing pranks, and when it was finally his turn he was a little excited. But when he entered the dormitory, the quiet and isolated atmosphere brought his excitement to an abrupt end.
Cockroaches, wet bedding, clothes stepped on, dirty and torn books, his head pressed into the basin when he was washing it, or a bottle of ink secretly poured into his basin, or a basin of cold water was poured on him when he went to the toilet... every single one of them was so excessive.
Cheng Yang no longer found it interesting or funny, he couldn't stand it, he tried to resist, but he could only resist once but not countless times. Malice was everywhere, enemies were everywhere, he didn't even know what prank was waiting for him next.
"Ahhhh!!!" Finally he completely lost control, yelling angrily and wanting to hit someone, but was eventually stopped by the staff, and the psychology teacher quickly went up to calm him down.
The four-day experience shooting is over, and the program crew is a little quiet for a while. They expected the situation to become more serious in the later stages, but the malice growing in it is so strong that it makes everyone feel a little cold in their hearts.
After the experience, the program team recorded everyone’s reflections on the experience. At this time, everyone’s emotions had not yet subsided, and they were still a little scared of the violence.
Even the three professional actors were affected to some extent. Once the atmosphere of wanton bullying of others was formed and individual characters were hidden behind group behavior, malice was exposed like shallows after the tide receded.
"Individuals in a group think they have an invincible power because there are so many people around them. Unlike individuals, groups do not have clear identities and names, so they can act recklessly. When a person loses the morality and sense of responsibility that binds him, he will become reckless." (Note 1)
Li Bo, Wang Hai and Xu Li recalled their experiences over the past four days, which were all ugliness and pain that they did not want to face. They all regretted their past actions to some extent and were filled with apologies to Chi Xia who had been bullied by them.
Although they were not the whole of the malice, they were part of it, allowing the malice to take root and grow wildly in the dormitory. Suddenly I looked in the mirror and found myself so ugly.
Only Cheng Yang seemed hopeless. After it was over, he actually waved his fist at the other three and whispered, "Just wait for me." It seemed that he had truly put his desire for revenge into his heart.
The psychological teacher provided psychological counseling to everyone to ensure that there was no impact on the mental state of the participants.
Lu Ning walked out and ran into Li Bo and Wang Hai who were far away. He said, "This is all acting. Don't take it seriously."
Wang Hai turned his head away. Only now did he realize that he had been used as a gun by Li Bo for so long, and Li Bo turned out to be such a mean person.
Li Bo was also full of disgust towards Wang Hai. This experiment revealed people's true colors. He realized that Wang Hai could actually say those excessive words to him.
Lu Ning muttered to himself: "If I really did something this outrageous, I would definitely feel very sorry for the victim and would definitely apologize to him, but no normal person would do such a thing, and we cannot use common sense to infer the thoughts of such a disgusting person..."
Li Bo and Wang Hai lowered their heads in shame. Xu Li stood aside, thoughtful, and decided to go and apologize to Chi Xia.
Yu Zhou came over to pick up Lu Ning and said to him, "Little Lemon, I just watched your recording in the back. Are you guys all experienced? Your acting looks so real."
Several people felt even more guilty.
Lu Ning smiled and said, "Maybe some of you students have a talent for acting. Senior Yu, let's go back."
After returning home, several roommates felt very uneasy and couldn't sleep all night. What they had done to Chi Xia in the past kept replaying in their minds and tormenting them.
Xu Li discussed with Li Bo and Wang Hai and wanted to find Chi Xia to apologize, but they didn't know where Chi Xia lived and Chi Xia didn't have a mobile phone. Finally, he asked the dormitory manager for Chi Xia's reserved emergency contact information, which was Fu Cheng's phone number.
Full of trepidation, they called Fu Cheng and explained their intentions.
Fu Cheng took his cell phone and went to find Chi Xia who was studying, but he was afraid that Chi Xia would be stimulated, so he said, "Can I listen? Can you turn on the speakerphone?" His emotional intelligence was finally a little higher.
"Okay." Chi Xia already knew that these people were his roommates, and he also had some understanding of his past experiences from the people around him. He held Fu Cheng's hand and said, "What do you want?"
Xu Li said with a trace of regret: "Chi Xia, I want to sincerely apologize to you. I was wrong in the past..."
Li Bo and Wang Hai also took turns apologizing to Chi Xia, saying sorry, sorry over and over.
Chi Xia listened to them quietly for a long time. Because Fu Cheng was with him, his emotions remained stable, or in other words, he was not as upset as he had imagined.
Finally, they asked anxiously, "Chi Xia, can you forgive us?"
Chi Xia glanced at Fu Cheng and said firmly: "I will not forgive you. I hope you will live with regret. Remember this lesson and don't treat others like this again. Goodbye."
Chi Xia hung up the phone, hugged Fu Cheng fiercely, and said tremblingly: "Brother Cheng, although I don't know what you have done for me, I still want to thank you. I have always hoped that they can regret it, hope that they can say sorry to me, and hope that they know that it is not my fault, but that they have done something wrong..."
Chi Xia looked at the vast sky outside the window behind Fu Cheng, and his tone gradually became relaxed: "But now, I suddenly feel relieved. Our future has nothing to do with these people anymore! We still have such a wonderful life..."
Fu Cheng hugged Chi Xia tightly, patted his head and said, "Yes, Xiao Chi, you are such a good person and deserve a bright and beautiful future. Be happy. I am by your side. Don't be afraid..."
Chi Xia suddenly smiled, and as he smiled, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes. He said, "Brother Cheng, don't worry, I will be strong, and we will be together."
As for Cheng Yang, although he still did not repent, after what happened in their dormitory, they could no longer tolerate school violence...
Fu Yunshen received a system reminder: [The plot reversal value of "Marrying the Ex's Father" is 80%. ]
It seems that my godson's social practice activities also promoted the development of his relationship with his daughter-in-law. I wonder if those roommates who committed school violence have truly repented.
The variety show's project progress report was sent to Fu Yunshen by Fu Cheng.
Fu Yunshen flipped through it, took a quick look at the process and results, and chuckled, "Little friend, since you have looked up the Stanford Prison Experiment, you should know that this kind of human experiment is controversial, so I don't think your variety show will pass the review."
"Ah?" Fu Cheng was a little stunned, but didn't the godfather agree to it at the beginning?
Fu Yunshen pushed the report to Fu Cheng and poured cold water on him, saying, "Even if it is broadcast, it will be seen as exploiting school violence. Although you do want to discuss this topic because Xiaochi has suffered greatly from it, and those children do deserve to be punished and recognize their mistakes."
"So... little godfather, have you decided?" Fu Cheng was a little frustrated.
Fu Yunshen tapped the desk with his fingertips and said, "However, you can regard this as a crude psychology experiment on human nature. It has complete video records and does have some research value. You can write a paper on it to explore the issues you want to explore." Fu Yunshen agreed to Fu Cheng's plan at first and had no intention of viewing this as a variety show.
"Ah?" Fu Cheng was dumbfounded.
So what he and his team have been working on for so long is not a variety show, but a psychology experiment on human nature?
[Writing a paper???] The system was also very confused. Wu Ye’s train of thought really could not be viewed from the perspective of an ordinary person.
Fu Yunshen looked at Fu Cheng seriously: "Write a paper, understand?" Since his godson, a high school student, has achieved this level, it should be possible for him to write a paper using this experiment.
"Writing a paper..." He was shocked by his godfather's train of thought, but Fu Cheng actually thought it was somewhat reliable? "Oh, okay."
Fu Yunshen changed the subject and said, "Xiaocheng, I think with your grades, the best way is to prepare to go abroad. What do you think?"
Although Fu Cheng wanted to be with Chi Xia, his grades were already like that and it would take time to improve. The best way was to go abroad.
As an outstanding alumnus, I can write a recommendation letter. My stupid son's essay might be of some use? But thinking about Fu Cheng's grades...
Fu Yunshen's father finally sighed: "But with your GPA, it seems I can only donate two buildings."
The system said: [Fifth Master, you are truly a diligent old father.]
Fu Cheng actually wanted to go to a good university with Chi Xia, but domestic schools had to take the college entrance examination, so going abroad was actually a good choice. Fu Cheng thought seriously about his future, then nodded: "Then I'll go discuss it with Xiao Chi."
However, the little godfather wanted to donate two buildings, which made him a little embarrassed. He said, "Little godfather, how about I lend you this money first? I will pay it back slowly after graduation?"
Fu Yunshen waved his hand. He had hired a million-dollar tutoring team. What was missing from his serious godson? He said, "You'd better write my paper well."
I have graduated for so many years, I don’t need to teach my son how to write a thesis, right?
