Team villains except me

The rain is gradually easing.

The sky gradually brightened. Garcia's roar stopped, and he continued to kneel in the mud, silent as a statue.

Jerry thought Garcia had finished venting his anger, but he saw Garcia scratching his palms hard outside the window.

Blood spread down from the wrist. The raindrops washed away the bloodstains, but Garcia's clothes were still stained red.

Jerry was shocked. He rushed to the door and wanted to go out to stop Garcia from hurting himself, but Irene grabbed him.

Irene also stared at Garcia outside. She saw Garcia's actions and she knew what Garcia was doing.

"Jerry, it was Mr. Garcia who was injured."

"He's also injured now! Look at the blood on his clothes, he's hurting himself!"

"Jerry, it was Mr. Garcia who had his hand cut by glass. His wound was not treated in time, and the glass shards were in his palm. He drank a whole bottle of repair potion... The glass shards grew together with his flesh and blood."

"So he is now picking out the glass shards?"

"Uh-huh."

"But...it hurts."

"Glass shards won't turn into flesh and blood. Mr. Garcia's hand may have hurt before, but he probably didn't know it was because of the glass shards. It will hurt again in the future. The only way to stop the pain is to pull it out completely."

Jerry said "Oh" in a daze, then turned his head away reluctantly. He still felt a little uncomfortable.

"But... there are many ways that don't hurt, and it's raining now, won't it get infected? Is it really necessary to do this?"

Irene was a little hesitant for a moment.

"I don't know. But he wants to avoid us, even though he knows we're close to him... Is that a request to process his emotions alone? I want to respect his choice, and I believe he can handle it on his own."

Jerry nodded when he heard this, but Hught took the repair potion from Garcia's house and walked out.

Jerry looked at Huett, then back at Irene.

"……Eh?"

Irene knew what Jerry meant. She held her face in her hands, her eyes soft, her voice calm.

"Huett is very afraid of pain. Seeing Garcia like this, he must want to make him feel less pain... But I don't think this level of pain needs to be forcibly interfered with."

The sound of dripping rain disturbed people's hearing. Irene and Jerry in the house couldn't hear clearly what Hugh and Garcia were saying outside, but they could guess something based on their actions.

...Garcia refused the repair potion that Huett handed over.

……

Garcia didn't want to pull the glass shards out of his palm when he walked out the door, because he didn't realize that there was still something like this in his palm.

He just wanted to find a place to release the emotions in his heart. His chest was filled with bitterness and confusion, and these emotions were like accumulated water, ready to burst the dam.

He wanted to roar loudly, to cry, to tell all the pain he had suffered over the years. He would be in a mess and look hideous. He didn't want his students to see it.

At least not now.

So he knelt in the garden and let out his emotions, but he soon felt a familiar pain in his body.

His palms ached like cramps. This pain tortured him every time it rained. In the past when he lost his memory, he relied on his limited physiological knowledge and believed that this was a growing pain that belonged to him alone, and it was his punishment.

But now he knew that it was because a piece of glass had grown into his flesh, so he resolutely cut open his palm, trying to pull the glass shards out of his flesh.

During this process, a bottle of repair potion was handed to him.

Garcia looked up at Huete who was holding the repair potion and shook his head in the rain.

"I don't want to use...repair potion. Repair potion will heal the wound, and I'm afraid there are still glass fragments."
