Ikari hummed a song as he cooked. He had a smile on his face as if he was in a good mood. At this moment, it was time for dinner. Asuka was bored as she sat at the dining table. She watched Ikari busy cooking, then she said disdainfully, "Are you that happy? You look disgusting when you laugh. "
Ikari was already familiar with Asuka's words and personality, so he ignored her and continued cooking. But Asuka was ignored by Ikari, which made her angry. Especially a few days ago, Ikari gave a box of lunch to Ling Boli. Although she didn't know why, she was angry. She jumped up, grabbed Ikari's ear, and said loudly, "I'm talking to you! How dare you ignore me!? "
"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Ikari was cooking. He screamed when his ear was pulled, but he couldn't break free.
At this time, Misato came out of the bathroom. She opened a bottle of beer and smiled at the two. "You guys have a good relationship."
Both Ikari and Asuka blushed. Asuka let go and said, "Who would have a good relationship with this idiot? He didn't answer me, so I'm punishing him! "
Misato heard Asuka's words before. She took a sip of beer and said to Ikari, "You're in a good mood recently. You're smiling more. Is there something that made you happy?"
Ikari said shyly, "Nothing. I just feel that everything has been going well recently. The synchronization rate is good, the school is good, everyone is good. I'm happy too."
Misato also smiled and said, "It's because Roger keeps dragging you to drink, right? You're still underage. Although I can't stop him, it's better not to get drunk. "
"That, that …" Ikari didn't know what to say. He felt that he was wrong to drink, but he couldn't stop Roger at all. Every time, Roger forced him to drink, so he didn't know how to answer.
At this time, Asuka said coldly, "The food is burnt."
"Huh? Ah! My dish! "Ikari Zhensi immediately turned around and hurriedly placed the dish on a plate.
Miri silently sipped her wine while watching Shinji busying himself, while Asuka coldly mocked him. After a while, she finally asked: "Zhini-kun, what do you think of Roger?"
At this moment, Ikari had already finished cooking and was taking off his apron. When he heard this, he said, "Uncle is a good person, but his temper is too …"
For a moment, Ikari had a headache. He didn't know how to describe Roger, so he stopped talking. Misato seemed to know what he meant, so she asked, "You know, he's an apostle. What if one day we have to fight him?"
"Why?" Ikari Zhensi immediately asked: "Uncle Roger is a good person, and I'm sure he doesn't want to destroy us humans. Do we have to attack him?"
"No, I'm just asking if …" Misato didn't expect Ikari Shenzi's reaction to be so intense, but she also understood that Ikari Shenzi, who was passive by nature and had a low aura, had almost no close friends, and Roger's personality just happened to be his weakness. Although the age gap between the two was relatively large, the relationship between the two was indeed very good. Misato even felt that in Ikari Shenzi's mind, Roger had the tendency to replace his father.
"If? There's no 'if', right? "Ikari Zhensi still didn't believe it.
Misato had no choice but to sigh and say: "Then … what if your father gave the order? Roger is an apostle, although he … "
"No!" Ikari Zhensi immediately showed a very serious expression. He looked at Misato and said: "No, miss Misato, Uncle Roger would never do that. He's not that kind of person, I can guarantee it!"
Misato sighed again and said, "Alright, let's assume that Roger didn't do anything. However, because he is an apostle, the commander ordered us to kill him as a precaution, to protect humanity, and to prevent future troubles. Will you do it?"
"No!"
Ikari Zhensi answered without hesitation: "If my father really gave such a bullsh * t order, then I wouldn't follow it! I would never do anything to Uncle Roger! "
"Then you and the commander, no, you wouldn't need to pilot the Prototype anymore, do you understand? You would be useless in front of the commander. "Misato took another sip of beer and said the same cruel words.
"People don't live for other people's words!"
For some reason, after hearing this, Ikari Zhensi's head suddenly became hot and he blurted out what Roger told him. After saying it, he suddenly realized what he said, but he still said: "If my father really gave such an unreasonable order, then even if I don't pilot the Prototype anymore, I would never follow it! Uncle Roger was right, everyone has their own life and thoughts. I'm not my father's subordinate, I have my own thoughts and rights! The so-called useless is just useless to my father, right? Then I'll be useful to others, and, and … "
Speaking up to here, Ikari Zhensi's face was already red, as if he was making a very important decision. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "If my father really gave such an unreasonable order, and didn't care if Uncle Roger was going to hurt us, then what's the difference between him and a murderer? Such a father … I don't want him, no, in his words, he's useless to me, to us! "
After saying this, not only Misato, but even Asuka's eyes widened. They stared at Ikari Zhensi as if they didn't know him. When Ikari Zhensi asked what was wrong, Misato sighed, put down her beer and said: "Nothing, I just feel that … you've become stronger, Zhensi-kun. Compared to when I first met you, you're much stronger than before … You're already a man."
"Is, is that so?" Ikari Zhensi scratched his head shyly, as if he didn't know how to answer.
At this time, Misato clapped her hands and laughed: "I'm just making an analogy, Zhensi-kun, as long as Roger sincerely doesn't want to be an enemy of us humans, then I think your father won't have to kill him. To be honest, if there really is an apostle who is kind to us humans, maybe he will become our protector in the future."
"That's right!" Ikari Zhensi immediately said excitedly: "Just like those superhero animes, like America's Superman, maybe uncle Roger can really become such a person, but his personality is too …"
"Don't worry, don't worry." Misato rubbed Ikari Zhensi's hair, she looked up at the ceiling and said: "If that's the case, then that's great, but I think it will have to wait until the future is peaceful, the peace of us humans, the peace of the apostles, or … In short, after the world is peaceful, Roger will be the world's hero, and we can live our lives. Oh right, the ocean will be slowly controlled, this is something our generation won't be able to see. In the future, one day the ocean will turn blue, just like what I saw when I was young … The future …"
For a moment, the three were speechless. After dinner, it was another peaceful night, then they went to sleep. Ikari Zhensi still had his headphones on, listening to music as he slept. While he was sleeping, he suddenly felt something move behind him, it scared him so much that he almost jumped up. At this time, a voice sounded: "Don't move, just lie there."
This voice was Asuka's, Ikari Zhensi's body suddenly stiffened, he didn't dare to move at all, his face turned red, he just lay there with his back facing her.
"You … Were you happy before?"
"I, I didn't …"
"Tell me the truth!"
Asuka's voice became heavier, then she whispered: "Tell me the truth, okay?"
"I … Yes, I was very happy." Ikari Zhensi was silent for a moment, then he said.
Asuka was silent for a moment, then she asked: "You said before that even if you don't drive the EVA, you still have your own way of living, right?"
"En, yes." Ikari Zhensi slowly calmed down, he said: "After meeting Uncle, I learned a lot from him, and he seems to have traveled to many places, he told me a lot of interesting things. Most importantly, he is very optimistic, even if he is an apostle and I am a human, I can still feel his optimism and strength. Maybe I was infected by him, now I am not afraid of loneliness, even if I don't drive the EVA, I still have my own way of living."
"That's great …" Asuka's voice gradually became lower and lower. She murmured, "But if I don't drive the EVA, I, I … I won't have anywhere to go. I won't be useful anymore."
Ikari Zhensi didn't say a word, and Asuka continued: "Because I don't want to be hurt, I hurt first, because I don't want to be disappointed, so I don't have any hope, because I have nowhere to go, so I don't want to go anywhere … I really envy you …"
"No, that's not right!" Ikari Zhensi suddenly remembered Roger's words, at that time, he was completely stunned.
The situation at that time was like this. After Roger displayed his power and broke the apostle's seal, Ikari was dragged by Roger to drink. He asked Roger a question: Since Roger was an apostle, why would he help humans like this? Moreover, he was an apostle, so wouldn't he be lonely among humans?
"Lonely? Hahaha, I don't know what loneliness is, I only know … "
Roger patted Ikari Zhensi's shoulder, then looked up at the sky, and said with a rare serious tone: "Humans don't live for comfort, warmth, or a sense of security like you, perhaps most people live for this, but I am not like this, and I believe that life should not be like this."
"Then … if we don't live for this, what should we live for?" Ikari Zhensi didn't understand.
Roger looked deeply at Ikari Zhensi and said: "If you want comfort, warmth, and a sense of security, then who do you want to ask for it? If the person you want to ask for it gives it to you, then where does the person you want to ask for comfort, warmth, and a sense of security come from? Do you want everyone to ask for these things, and then ask each other for these things, and the negatives can become the positive? No, someone has to give these things, to give others comfort, warmth, and a sense of security. "
"My dream is to give dreams to people with dreams, and to fulfill them with them, so I have countless dreams, I have a dream of climbing the highest mountain, I have a dream of drinking the strongest wine in the world, I have a dream of traveling the entire universe, I will give comfort, warmth, and a sense of security to those who need it!"
"Ikari Zhensi, you are not as weak as you think you are, you have the potential to become a pillar of support for others. If there comes a moment when you feel that you have a responsibility, no, I should say that when there comes a moment when you hear what others say to you, you will know what to do, I believe in this!"
At that time, Ikari Zhensi didn't understand, nor did he believe, but at this moment, for some reason, perhaps it was just as Mei Li said, after knowing Roger for a while, he became stronger. At least at this moment, he suddenly understood what Roger meant, he, he didn't want to …
"That's not right! You can have hope! You have a place to go! You can not hurt others! If you don't drive an EVA anymore, if you don't drive an EVA anymore … then go to school with me! After graduation, you can find a job, and you can even travel, yes! Travel! With Uncle Roger, we can definitely fight against the rest of the apostles, and there will be peace in the future. When the time comes, let's travel together! "
Ikari Zhensi hurriedly said, and he was so anxious that he almost turned his head, and suddenly a fist came from behind him, and he immediately leaned to the side, and the fist from behind him became lighter and lighter, until it finally landed on his back and said, "Idiot Zhensi, idiot Zhensi … will you always be this strong in the future? Will you help me in the future? When I am in despair, when I have nowhere to go, will you help me? "
"I … I will help you!"
"Yes …"
