11. Observation (1)
"What did you say?!"
The loud shouts of the unprecedented, cannonball-like explosion nearly toppled the tent, and Brunshire's octave scream made the robes behind him look sideways, and it was completely beyond their knowledge that Major Brunhill, who was known for his strict adherence to military discipline and high quality, would behave in such a gaffe.
However, the impact of this kind of Cheng dù and the horror Cheng dù brought to the elves that almost dropped their jaws to the ground compared to the shock Cheng dù who returned to the camp alone, drank a cup of black tea calmly, and announced the extraordinary act in a very calm and casual tone.
"Your Excellency, I would like to confirm what you just said, can I?"
Brunhill's paradoxical tone and stiff expression overflowed with a super-powerful aura that could not be distinguished and rejected, and the wavering vertigo and dissatisfaction that was about to break through the threshold seemed to turn into a storm of love in the next moment, and the supreme commander who was talking to himself was in full swing.
Even Tyre, who wanted to remind Brunhill to pay attention to his tone and attitude, wisely chose to give up after being glared at by the ferocious eyes that could eat him raw without dipping the season, and the elven officers who couldn't interject looked at Li Lin who still showed a cynical calm smile worriedly.
"I gave Roland the adults four days of water and food, plus the necessary equipment, to try to survive in the wilderness for seven days. ”
After feeling guilty and uneasy, and saying what he had done very calmly, Li Lin put down the teacup that had been sucked away by his hands, and the red-eyed king who spread his hands to make an innocent appearance had no intention of reflecting on his irresponsible behavior at all.
"Are you serious? Let a boy survive for seven days in a field infested with thieves, wild beasts, and dangerous species, where the temperature drops sharply enough to cause frostbite and freeze to death? Otherwise, the subordinates can only be understood as lynching. ”
"Major Brunhill, how can you speak in such a tone to the Colonel, you-"
"It's because I'm a colonel that I just talk like this, and it's the colonel who left Roland in my care!"
The lioness guarded her young son's fierce eyes forced Tyre back, and learned that a childhood sweetheart also admired Li Lin. It's not that I can't tolerate my own rude behavior, and I will never use such a strong tone. But the tolerance and admiration in the girl's heart were clashing, and Brunhill, who was unable to contain his impulses in the midst of contradiction and anxiety, sprinkled sharp and clear eyes on Li Lin's face.
"Maybe the colonel has unspeakable reasons and intentions. But I'd like to see an explanation. ”
Instead of using the "subordinate" that restricts the relationship between superiors and subordinates, the "I" originates from the individual's self-will, the difference in words clearly expresses the fluctuations and subtle changes in the position after being infused with emotions.
"It's also part of parenting. It's just that the approach may be a bit radical at this stage. ”
Elbows against the table, fingers gracefully and elegantly intertwined, hands covering the wings of the nose to block the light and view, the curtain shadow could not see the lip line and expression, the red pupils that looked into Brunhill's excited face sent a meaningful voice.
"The Major's ideas and practical expressions are correct, and they have had a definite effect on soothing the child's psychological wounds, and this achievement deserves recognition and praise. However, Roland can only be adjusted by drastic educational methods. If you ask why, the reason is very simple - [a matter of time]. ”
"Time...... Is it?"
In response to Li Lin's explanation, Brunhill frowned at a rhetorical question full of doubts.
"Roland has a lot of weight on his shoulders. But not the highest priority. "Finding and Returning to Gram" remains our top priority, in order to complete this task as quickly and perfectly as possible. Everyone's hard work and dedication and the faith and determination of all the warriors and even all the elves are indispensable prerequisites, and you know about this, Major. ”...,
Nodding silently, Brunhill, who was close to the core of the upper echelons, knew best. The importance of improving the morale of soldiers and strengthening organizational cohesion has been learned in military school, and Brunhill has never neglected relevant matters in his daily work and life.
It takes a long time and effort to build, and then it takes more and more to maintain it for a long time. A slight negligence. Tiny holes can expand into fatal rifts, and hard work can crumble into rubble and dust in the blink of an eye—both tangible and intangible.
Any organization needs to unite the intentions of its members, so relevant rules and regulations will be established to regulate the behavior of members to prevent disconnection. For [secret organizations] like V.E Company, which uses commercial activities as a disguise, because of the need for secrecy, the disciplinary system will become more and more stringent, and the most representative and core part is the reward and punishment system.
"The soldiers of Squad 2 paid the price for their misdeeds, and Roland must also be punished for his wrong attitude and words and deeds at that time. There will be no exceptions to the basic rules of fairness in rewards and punishments, whether it be me, you, or Roland, in order to keep the organization running collectively, so that the soldiers who are born and die will not be chilled, and then lead to the disintegration and collapse of the state, the organization, and the army. In the current extraordinary times and extraordinary tasks, the importance of clearly defining responsibilities and handling them fairly cannot be shaken in the slightest. ”
"But Roland is still just a child, and it is unrealistic for a child who is only 5 years old and has problems living independently to learn the rules of the military immediately, and is it too harsh for him to be dealt with so harshly for the first offender?"
"It's true that he's a kid, but it's not okay to ask for a special status by the standards of an ordinary child. ”
Roland is the son of the glorious Golden Hen Knights Captain Li Nadu, and is also the object of Li Lin's adoption and guardianship.
He is a human child who is about to enter the realm of elves.
"After the legal formalities related to adoption are completed, Roland will officially become my custody object, that is, [adopted son]. Whether he wishes to do so or not, he automatically has the status of a member of the organization. If the reckless behavior of the previous one were to be repeated after the formalities had been completed, or even to cause something bigger and more out of line, even I would have to obey the unanimous opinion of the majority of the members and punish him more severely. In order to prevent the irreversible situation from occurring, it is essential to carry out extreme education and related training now. ”
In the world of power struggle, there is no room for a child to be willful, and the behavior of playing with sex will be used, played, and squeezed dry in three or two times in the cold power confrontation, and in the end there will be no bones left in the end.
The conclusion is clear: in order to survive, Roland must undergo this trial.
"But 7 days in the wild still seems too intense, that kid—"
A hint of shame and more worry and unbearability crossed the girl's face with sudden realization, Li Lin's quiet voice cut off Brunhill's slightly overflowing maternal care, and the steely and hard gaze met the emerald green eyes that flinched slightly.
"Have you ever heard of the lion's love for its cubs? ”
"You mean the legend that lions only keep cubs that climb up from under cliffs? To be honest, I've only heard of it, and I've never really seen anything like it. ”
[The leader of the lion pack will lead the cubs up the cliff after they can run, push all the cubs off the cliff, and then wait for the cubs to climb up on the cliff, and choose the one that can climb up to raise. 】
The older generation of elves will describe such a paragraph with a solemn and deep expression, and after the processing and modification of language and words, the expression is more realistic. Having never known the habits of all kinds of wild beasts and dangerous species, Brunhill, who had a wealth of hunting experience, had never seen a lion living in the plains climb a cliff to do such a sensual and troublesome thing. She had only seen and remembered how the lions had given birth to a new leader, and what had happened to the sons of the previous leader. ...,
Compared with fabricated stories with obvious traces of imagination, real nature is always more bloody and cruel, and at the same time far from being true.
Regardless of the authenticity of the story, there are still important meanings and inspirations for children's education. ”
Under the palms crossed with ten fingers, voices that made it difficult to distinguish emotions and unable to grasp the ups and downs of thoughts came from the shadows of the masks.
"Don't spoil your child", "The right setback can make the child grow faster", the most important of which is "Parental love is not only a form of protection", "The courage to expect the child to climb up even if he pushes off a cliff] - it sounds scary, but now Roland needs this kind of education, he must learn to be self-reliant before children of the same age, and for this, he must first learn how to coexist. At least not worse than Nidhogg's xiàn"
Li Lin also has a Nidhogg who is considered a child according to the life cycle of the race, but the normal cold and arrogant impression of [Child Adjutant] is too different from the stinky and stubborn ghost Roland.
Compared with ancient species, the biggest and most essential difference between the intelligent species and the ancient species is not the superficial difference in lifespan, size, appearance, strength, etc., but the two points of "sense of time" and "living alone" are the source of the gap between the survival mode and maturity of the two populations.
The dragons are more indifferent to the feelings and relationships between their companions and relatives than the beasts, and the dragons who have lived alone for hundreds of thousands of years will not feel lonely and lonely, except for mating and breeding, there are basically no things such as communication and socialization between the same clan. Today's dragons are not even interested in the heavy responsibility of reproducing offspring, and the resulting problem of declining birthrate has reached the point of terminal illness, and in a few hundred years, the dragon race will probably become extinct and become legendary fantasy creatures.
