King of Stage

The three teammates were exchanging glances, but Ronan didn't seem to notice it at all, and he didn't even pause in the rhythm of his speech, just following the rhythm and speaking eloquently.

"She worked very hard. She hoped that she could survive, so she tried to learn many skills, but unfortunately, her learning speed and efficiency were not satisfactory. After two years of learning, she only learned to sew buttons. But she Very happy because she finally learned a skill."

"And, to encourage her, family and friends kept telling her that she was doing a good job - which of course she was, she was a good sewer. Over time, she thought she was the best button sewer in the world. People. Later, every time I went to a friend's house as a guest, she would come over and look at me seriously, and ask, Ronan, I can sew buttons, do you need me to teach you?"

"I knew her idea was good, but I said no."

Ronan's words were interrupted for the first time. Oli sat up straight and asked "why", as if he couldn't believe his ears. Unknowingly, they all entered Ronan's story.

Ronan smiled at Oli, "One is because I know how to sew buttons myself, so I don't need to learn from her; the other is because I'm afraid that she will prick me with a needle, but I'm not good at hurting her in turn. It's not fair."

puff.

Ollie couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing, but then felt that it was not good to "laugh" at the girl like this, so he withdrew his smile, shook his head slightly, and muttered in an alien language that no one could understand.

Maxim seemed to have something to say, he didn't understand what Ronan's purpose in telling this story was, and what he wanted to express, but after hesitating again and again, he swallowed it.

Ronan didn't try to make a joke, and continued, "But every time she sees me, she will still ask in one sentence, Ronan, I am the best button sewer in the world, you want to learn how to sew buttons with me Is it? It’s become a form of communication for us, like asking what we had for lunch today.”

Cliff also didn't understand Ronan's intentions and the meaning of the story, but he listened very carefully, even more seriously than Ollie and Maxim, and he didn't show any extra emotions throughout the whole process, just listening intently He said, with a look of deep thought in his eyes.

"And today, Scout reminded me of that girl again." Without any notice, Ronan changed the subject and related to today's matter, everyone was full of question marks, even Alice I can't understand what is the connection between these two things.

Ronan chuckled, "You see, the girl studies many things hard, but the only thing she is good at is sewing buttons, so as time goes by, she thinks that she is the most powerful person in the world, mistakenly thinking that everyone in the world must submit She learns to sew buttons, and there is no other possibility."

"But we should all know that sewing buttons is just the tip of the iceberg of huge knowledge and skills in real life. There is no need to be so happy or excited. If our eyes only focus on sewing buttons, then we may always be at the bottom of the well frog."

"I mean, is Scout good at button making? Sure, he's very, very good, he might be a master button maker, but do we need to learn from him to sew buttons? Not necessarily. I turn down girls, too It doesn't mean Scooter was wrong to turn him down, and it doesn't mean I'm wrong either."

"In this world, there are many possibilities besides sewing buttons. Similarly, the world Scout knows is not the real whole world."

Having said that, the story is over.

"So, I don't think what happened with Scooter represents the end. On the contrary, this may be a turning point for us to break the boat. More importantly, do we have such courage and determination?"

Ronan's eyes fell on the band members respectively,

Everyone was caught up in thinking, and a pensive clarity gradually flowed out of their eyes—but it was not 100% clear. Residual doubts were surging, and they exchanged glances involuntarily, trying to find the answer.

The eyes of Maxim and Cliff also met. Although there was no dialogue, they quickly moved away, but the rigidity of the atmosphere has gradually been broken, and there are signs of softening. This is a good start .

Cliff looked at Ronan quietly, and then caught Ronan's attention. He took the initiative to look at him, and expressed doubts in his eyes. Cliff thought for a while and said hesitantly, "...you look like Something is different."

In fact, this is what Ronan has been worrying about for a long time——

He and Ronan Cooper are two independent souls. I am afraid that their behavior, personality traits, living habits, daily preferences, etc. are very different. Area 11 slice research, this is what he has been thinking about since the first night.

At this moment, facing Cliff's question, Ronan was still a little nervous, especially since Alice was next to him, but he still showed a look of surprise, "What's different?"

Cliff narrowed his eyes slightly, "I can't tell, I always feel a little different."

Ronan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it is not a factual deviation, it doesn't matter - assuming that he was allergic to seafood in the past but now he is fine, such an objective situation may cause strong doubts; but subjective judgments are not so rigorous After all, people are subject to change.

On the surface, Ronan showed a shallow smile, a little helpless and a little embarrassed, "If it doesn't change, then this is the end."

The very, very short sentence made the band members fall into deep thought, and even Alice's eyes showed a hint of distress.

In the past few days, it was not just Ronan, the other three band members have also changed more or less; moreover, Ronan also experienced a long-term high fever on the verge of life and death, and finally ended up fainting on stage , This also became a stimulus, how could it not change?

After a brief two-sentence exchange, there was silence again. The communication between the bands was still a bit stumbling, and the atmosphere among the members was visibly affected by the naked eye.

"Wait, Ronan, why do I feel like you're scolding Scout?" Ollie seemed to finally come to his senses, and raised his doubts loudly.

As a result, Ronan's eyes narrowed into two crescent moons. There was no sound, but his expression said it all. He made a silent movement towards Ollie, "Shh", almost tantamount to acquiescing to Ollie. According to Li, at this moment, Maxim and Cliff both laughed.

The jerky and stiff atmosphere also eased, and they vaguely found their familiar mode of getting along again.
