Chapter 1095 Father and Son (Twenty-Four)
Schiller moved slightly to the side and leaned against Scott, so that they both sat on the right side of the sofa, and Polaris, who sat on the left side of the sofa, was face to face with Magneto.
Magneto also showed a fake smile and said, "Really? You went to the planet of the sulfur dwarves and didn't come back for three months. You never said who you missed."
Polaris' smile froze for a moment, but then she said without showing weakness: "In fact, I miss my mother and my adoptive father more. They are the most patient and loving people I have ever met..."
Magneto's smile froze for a moment, but then he spoke in a low tone: "But unfortunately, you are not like your mother at all. She is a gentle lady..."
"Oh, really? That may be because you haven't seen her true appearance." Polaris's teeth were clenched under her smile. She said: "When a person is not familiar with others, he always behaves extra politely..."
"Unfortunately, you are also impolite when you are familiar with others."
Scott leaned on the armrest on the right side of the sofa, and Schiller leaned on Scott on the right side. The two of them each held a cup of tea and looked sideways to the left. There was only a stool between them and the old man watching the fight at the barbecue stall opposite on the sidewalk.
"Doctor Schiller, are we just going to let them quarrel?" Scott lowered his voice and looked at Schiller and asked. Schiller blew the tea in his hand and said, "Don't worry, it won't be too serious."
"Really? They both stood up. Are they going to fight?" Scott's tone was full of worry.
And just as he said, Polaris had stood up and walked out of the sofa area. Magneto also walked slowly with his arms folded and returned to the back of the desk. The two walked and quarreled all the way.
"Do you know what the two of them are most similar in, what is it?" Schiller took a sip of tea and turned back to ask Scott.
"Uh, is it... ability?" Scott replied.
"No, it's about saving face."
When he finished this sentence, the magnetic field was disturbed again. Obviously, the verbal confrontation between the two did not determine the winner, and they wanted to compete in terms of ability again.
At this time, Schiller took a sip of tea and began to cough violently. Scott put down the teacup in his hand in a hurry and patted Schiller on the back to help him breathe.
Instantly, the fluctuation of the magnetic field disappeared, and Magneto and Polaris exchanged a look, which roughly meant, "Although we both took action, it must be your part of the magnetic field that affected Schiller."
But the next second when the magnetic field calmed down at the same time, the two stared at each other, as if they didn't know each other, and the message conveyed in their eyes was "You actually consider other people's feelings?!"
Schiller coughed for a while, holding his chest, and stood up, and then said: "Miss Lorna, you have met your father and relieved your longing. If there is nothing else, can you please not disturb my psychological treatment with Eric for the time being?"
Polaris stood in place, without moving his head, but slowly turned his eyes, first towards Schiller, then slowly turned back to Magneto's direction, and then frowned deeply.
She cleared her throat vigorously, winked at Scott, and then turned to walk out the door. Scott immediately followed, and turned back to Schiller as he walked, saying, "I'll take Lorna back."
The two of them went out the door and rushed out of the building as fast as they could. When they came to the garden, Polaris covered her chest and gasped. She widened her eyes and said, "Oh my God! What did I just hear? Magneto is doing psychotherapy?!"
Scott also seemed a little surprised. He said, "Why is Magneto so good-tempered today? What kind of magic potion did Schiller give him?"
"I'm also very surprised, although he is still the same The words are harsh, but he actually opened his mouth to speak! "Polaris looked incredulous and said, "I thought he was a mute!"
"To be honest, Lorna, you are a little different today." Scott walked in front of Polaris, pressed her shoulders, and said, "You actually said that you missed Magneto? ! Even if it was an excuse, you would never say it before..."
"Do you still remember that there was a period of time when you would immediately become irritable as long as you heard the words Magneto or Eric. Didn't you and Pietro fight like this last time?" Scott said in surprise.
"I don't know." Polaris walked forward quickly, grabbing her hair, and said in disbelief, "There is magic in that room! It must be like this! Otherwise, if it was in the past, I would have fought 4 times in 13 minutes with Magneto!
"Could it be... Dr. Schiller is a superb doctor?" Scott asked.
"Isn't Professor X a superb doctor? "Polaris' tone was full of confusion. She said, "They have known each other for decades. If it could be cured, wouldn't it have been cured long ago?"
"Wait!" Polaris suddenly stopped, looked around, turned back to look at Scott and said, "This is really a problem."
"Look, Magneto has always said that he doesn't want psychological treatment. No matter how Professor X persuades him, he refuses. But when Dr. Schiller comes, he agrees again. How sad will Professor X be?"
Polaris pursed his lips, showing an expression of reluctance, and then said: "If I knew that my friend of many years refused to let me treat him, but went to find a strange psychiatrist, I would be very sad."
Scott's expression was also a little hesitant. He paused for a moment, and then said: "If we don't tell Professor X, it should be okay, right?"
"No, on the contrary, he will know sooner or later, he is Professor X!" Lorna walked forward quickly, and then He said:
"I'm going back to Earth now and tell Professor X about this. Let him know how capricious and cold-blooded Eric is. Tell him not to give him this kind of thing again. If it happens again, I'm really going crazy!"
Schiller stood in front of the window, watching the backs of Polaris and Scott leaving one after another, smiled and shook his head, looked at Magneto at the table and said: "It's great to be young, isn't it?"
Magneto leaned back in his chair, picked up the teacup and took a sip of water. The tail of his eyebrows looked like bamboo leaves gently falling down, and his expression seemed to be really in the bamboo forest, with relaxation and leisure that he himself didn't even notice.
"Charles often said that I should be patient with children." Magneto's low voice echoed in the room, as if separated by a long distance.
"But I don't understand, do people have to be patient?"
Schiller paused, then said: "Of course not, but parents need to be patient. You can choose to be an impatient person, as long as you don't have children."
"However, I also know that the birth of your children can be said to be the product of your rough life and unfortunate times."
"In your rough life, fate did not give you the opportunity to enjoy a quiet life. The sufferings that followed did not leave any opportunity for patience to grow and sprout. This is not your fault."
"Similarly, fate also prevented your children from enjoying a happy and complete family and a stable environment to give them the confidence to communicate calmly with anyone. This is not their fault."
"As for whose fault it is..." Schiller shook his head.
Magneto's fingers slowly tightened until the veins between his old fingers were twisted. He had not used such a murderous tone for many years to spit out that word: "NAZI..."
"There is no need to mention the past. Let's talk about the present." Schiller changed the subject.
"Impatientness is a shortcoming, but it is not a disease. For a strong enough person, patience is not particularly important."
"You have lived so irritably for so many years, and no one can do anything to you, so it doesn't matter whether you have patience or not." Schiller shrugged and said.
"You are the most open-minded psychiatrist I have ever seen." Magneto commented: "Even more open-minded than Charles."
"You know? There are different schools of psychiatrists." Schiller took a sip of warm tea and said: "My current opinion is that if the patient is not suffering, then there is no need to treat him."
"Whether a person is a mental patient depends on whether he is actually suffering from his mental condition, whether he feels pain, and whether, objectively, he is more painful than people living in the same environment."
"That's why I said I'm not here to treat you. You think you are living a good life, there is nothing you can't figure out, and your living conditions are much better than most mutants, so there is no need to treat you. . "
"The so-called normal psychology is relative. There is no way to use the same standard to measure whether different people are normal. Therefore, as long as there is no pain under subjective and objective conditions, there is really no need to treat it."
Magneto fell into deep thought. Obviously, he had a new understanding of psychology today. Schiller blew the tea and continued:
"There is another advantage to judging in this way. That is, if someone is in pain under the condition of subjective and objective unity, then he can also receive psychological treatment, and there is no need to think that I can't receive treatment like a mental patient because I haven't found out about mental illness."
Magneto's eyebrows trembled slightly. He felt a common "care" in Schiller and Charles.
This kind of care is not for a certain person or certain aspects, but a kind of care that strives to give everyone unlimited possibilities.
"I didn't expect that the problem that has troubled me and Charles for so many years was solved so easily by you." Magneto's voice was still low, but there was infinite sigh in his tone.
Schiller held the teacup, turned around and said to him: "This just shows that you are all smart people, smart and confident people, who know that they will not be stumped by any complex and difficult problems, so they like to make every problem complex and difficult..."
"Education is indeed complex and difficult, but it is also very simple."
Schiller looked down at the tea in the cup. He saw small bubbles coming out of the bottom of the cup. The tea, which had been a little cold, was heated again. This implicit way of showing goodwill made Schiller feel very happy.
So, he patiently explained:
"You have overlooked the most important and basic issue in education - respect."
"You are always used to solving problems in the simplest and crudest way. Respect is not the first thing you need to consider. You think that as long as someone can do what you say in the end, it doesn't matter whether you punch him or have a good talk."
Magneto nodded. He did not deny his temper at all, and he had no apologies for it. His life was result-oriented and goal-oriented.
Magneto's logic is very self-consistent. He can't break the wall because his strength is not strong enough, and he can't achieve his goal because he is not strong enough.
The mutants can't solve the problems they are facing now because Professor X is too soft-hearted, otherwise the problem would have been solved long ago.
But Magneto still felt a little confused about Schiller's argument, so he asked: "What about Charles? Doesn't he respect them enough?"
Schiller shook his head and said: "Charles is the other extreme. You know you don't have the patience to understand others in detail and give them the respect they want."
"Professor X thinks he is very patient, but he gives it to the wrong people." Schiller shook his head and said: "I used to be the same."
"I recently realized that helping people when they are in trouble, comforting them when they are sad, coaxing them when they are lost, saying all the good things, convincing everyone, and arranging everything for everyone is actually a manifestation of disrespecting them."
Schiller narrowed his eyes slightly, and Magneto also looked at him. When the two looked at each other, Schiller said helplessly:
"If you want to be a loving mother who holds everyone in her hands, you must first see whether you are holding an egg or a young eagle. If the egg is loosened, it will be a sign of disrespect. "Charles treats every child as an egg, always caring about their physical and mental conditions, fearing that if he lets go, the already pitiful little mutants will be completely broken into pieces." "But in fact, many of them already have strong enough wings and bones that are not afraid of falls. As long as they let go, they can fly into the sky." "More importantly, these eagles stay in Charles's palm just to covet his warmth, not to be really educated." "In terms of educating your offspring, you do nothing, and Charles does too much. You make your own choices, and then, among the few options, you perfectly avoid the correct answer." Schiller turned his head to look out the window again, and after a sigh, Magneto finally heard what Professor X hoped he would hear, which came from Schiller, suggestions about the future of mutants. "Magneto and Professor X, Eric and Charles, the two most powerful mutants, the leaders of mutants all over the world."
"You have devoted your lives to the future of mutants. For decades, no one has been able to convince anyone else on the question of where the future of mutants should go."
"But if you really want mutants to have a future, then give up the pursuit of a perfect future."
"If you want every mutant to get the future they want, then don't just ask them to go to the future you want."
"If you hope that in every era, mutants can give birth to great leaders like you, then don't be a leader anymore, but be a father..."
"A father who is willing to educate and understands education."
