Disqualification

"This report..."

"It's too much to mention Takano."

When Ryoko Takano walked into the classroom, many people had already gathered in the classroom. As usual, there were more female students and few male students. She was keenly aware that the atmosphere today was different from usual. The men all looked at her with excited and secretive eyes, the eyes were sticky, mixed with some emotions that made her despise, while the female classmates looked at her worriedly.

She could hold her breath very well, strode forward with her head held high, and only when she reached the seat reserved for herself by a female classmate did she sit down and ask in a low voice, "What happened?"

The classmates handed over the newspaper.

A magazine famous for its eroticism vividly described the female classmate who was the first to speak in public, and at the same time boldly and slanderously described her inner admiration for male authors. The explicit and obscene words made Ryoko Takano's face turn red .

Fortunately, there are no photos in this newspaper, so that Takano’s reputation will not be damaged too much. Cameras did not enter thousands of households in the Taisho era, and tabloid offices could not afford to supply photos.However, female students were not the only ones who went to the University of Tokyo to listen to lectures. Some male students from Jisheng Academy also went together. These people are usually full of bad habits, and they want to drive intellectual women out of the classroom, and now they spread gossip unscrupulously .

Not long after entering the door, Ryoko Takano was smashed countless times by notes from behind. She picked up a few and opened them, only to find that they were all erotic poems.

"Push Lang lightly. Gradually hearing the trembling sound, I was slightly startled and blushed."

"Happy spring night snack, chaotic relapse after playing the piano."

There are poems with Chinese characters and popular sensual poems. Ryoko Takano's face successfully rose from red to red. She viciously rolled up the paper and threw it out of the window.

There were a lot of boring people paying attention to her, and there was another burst of booing.

Butterfly Kanae, who was sitting in the front row, also noticed something was wrong. She often walked alone and was not familiar with any small groups in the academy. She only had a few words with Ryoko Takano, and when she saw that she was in a bad mood, she whispered Ask the woman next to you: "What happened?"

The girl whispered: "It's Takano, who took the initiative to ask Mr. Dazai a question during the lecture, and that's why it was written by the tabloids as envying Mrs., and others are making a fuss about it now."

"Nonsense." Kanae scolded softly, "As a student, don't you even have the right to study?"

"That's right..."

Kanae thought, she would go with Ryoko Takano after class later, so that she would not be bullied.

When other students were listening to the class, the back door of the classroom opened without anyone noticing. The male student wearing glasses sat in the last row of the classroom. Because some students were often late, his behavior was not abrupt. His extra eyes, the thick-framed glasses that can cover most of his face are on the bridge of his nose. After entering the door and scanning around, he can see the classroom environment in his eyes. The female students are sitting in the front row, one by one, earnestly completing the class Note, compared with them, male students who are tall and big are not very serious in class, and there is an impetuous atmosphere in the classroom, and some people often point fingers at women.

Jisheng Academy is not the first coeducational school he visited. All schools are the same. In this era, women will only be recognized if they have made achievements far surpassing men, and they will face many difficulties when they enter the workplace. Looking at the current situation, I just feel sad, ironic, and funny.

He suddenly thought of the conversation he had with Rinaki Sakonji a few years ago.

"Non-government recognized organization." The young man in western clothes was out of tune with the mountains and rivers. He sat on the veranda, looking at the Sagiri Mountains shrouded in the sunset, "It's a terrible situation." His mouth is too poisonous, his eyes are too sharp, It is able to tear off the hypocrisy in an instant, "Fighting evil spirits is a very difficult thing. Fortunately, in the countryside, there are always some old people who are considered to be gods and gods. In a slightly more civilized town or city, when talking about ghosts or even drawing a sword to kill ghosts, people around them often don’t understand, and they may even be sent to the police station.”

"That's right." Zuo Rinaki replied recently, "But most of the children who joined the Demon Killing Squad didn't join by voluntary will, but by the hatred that puts life and death beyond measure, so ordinary people don't understand why they don't cooperate. , with their mockery, cannot shake these children."

"Including the Wisteria family, some big families under the protection of the Ghost Killing Squad will provide secret support. For us, this little bit of goodwill is enough."

"...It's really tragic." Dazai said softly, "Those who have mastered the truth can only give silently in the dark, but they will be spurned by the ignorant majority in the sun."

[I can feel that only a belief that transcends social consciousness can support them to this day. ]

"No way." Lin Taki said, "Their fate has long been distorted by ghosts."

[Their fate has long been distorted by the times. ]

Although they are two very different things, Dazai discovered the subtle connection, so that they resonated.

……

After class, Yoshiko Takano couldn't bear to stay in this classroom for another second, so she rushed out immediately. Although the other female students wanted to stop her, they had various concerns, for example, she would be bullied like Yoshiko Takano. In the end, they still didn't follow out, only Butterfly Kanae chased them out without hesitation.

The soles of the straw sandals stepped on the stairs, making a rattling sound. For some reason, before she left the classroom completely, she was guided by her intuition. Turning her head, she saw the young man sitting quietly in the last row of the dormitory.

[I seem to have seen it somewhere...]

The young man in glasses smiles, opens his mouth and makes several mouth shapes:

[Yesterday’s moonlight was really good, Miss Butterfly. ]

……

"Takano, Takano, Takano." Kanae walked forward while calling the other person's name, Takano Ryoko walked too fast, the hard soles of her leather boots made a bang bang bang sound on the ground, she held the textbook in both hands, head Buried down, only looking at the road ahead, feeling very bad.

Before this, even if she was insulted by other men in the school, she had never felt such a sense of shame, but now, she was clearly discussing literature with the author she admired, but it was misinterpreted, and it became a topic of discussion in the newspaper. She was very, very annoyed.

[Don't women have the right to study? ]

[Don't we even have the right to read? ]

[The teacher's works, literature, don't they belong to everyone? ]

The more she learns the idea of ​​gender equality, the more annoyed she is by the current situation, to the extent that she is bullied at school on weekdays, her family does not support her to continue her studies, and many grievances come to her heart.

"Isn't this Gao Ye?" She buried her head and walked forward, not noticing who was in front of her, and almost ran into the arms of a tall male classmate. The three men walked side by side. Gao Ye looked up at his frivolous eyebrows and eyes. Know that nothing good comes next.

What he didn't expect was that the classmate of the opposite sex, who was usually flamboyant, became even more serious, and directly reached out to grab her wrist. This overstepping move made Ryoko Takano extremely flustered, and said straightly, "Let me go!"

"If you want me to tell you, Jisheng Academy shouldn't have accepted you in the first place. It disturbed the order of the classroom and made other students fall in love. Now it has simply become the talk of the public and smeared the school..."

Before he finished speaking, Ryoko Takano yelled at the back of his head: "Please let her go."

It's Butterfly Chanae.

She is recognized as a beauty in the school building. If it weren't for the fact that she was always invisible after class, she would have been entangled by male students with bad intentions. The few people present liked to make troubles, and they didn't pay attention to the slender butterfly Kanae, not only She refused to let go, and even signaled others to catch her.

"Then I can only be rude." Kanae was still smiling, but she could see the vigorous anger from her smile. It was too late to say it, and the ruler was originally used to draw horizontal and vertical lines in class. She exerted extraordinary strength and hit the male classmate's hand after a few bangs, while she herself retreated from the opponent's roar, and grabbed the stupefied Ryoko Takano by the way, and ran away with all her might.

"For safety's sake, please go and see a doctor." Her voice spread across the aisle.

[well?well! ]

Ryoko Takano blinked, everything happened so fast just now, she didn't even react.

……

"Thank you, classmate Butterfly." The two of them ran out of the teaching building and paced the street. It was late in the evening. There was no night class in the Jisheng Academy tonight. They had already finished school. She bowed several times, thanking the other party for her help, "It's really amazing, classmate Butterfly." Her eyes sparkled, "Have you ever practiced kendo before? Those men are no match for you at all."

"A little dabble." Butterfly Kanae's anger dissipated, her smile was as sweet and pleasant as ever, "It's you, what will you do in the future?"

"Nothing to do." Ryoko Takano said, "I have nothing wrong with this matter, and I will never bow to them." She said, "What's more, even if they are taught by you, they won't say it. Even if it is said, no one will believe it, and they will feel that their face as a man has been humiliated."

"As long as you are a little more careful during this time and study hard, they can't do anything to me." She was a little bit wronged at first, but after seeing Butterfly Kanae, all that was left in her heart was admiration for her, thinking that Butterfly was In her mind is a new woman who can stand shoulder to shoulder with men, and she must not give up because of this little setback.Yoshiko Takano said viciously: "I must get a doctor's license and become a famous female doctor in Japan. Let them take a good look."

Butterfly Chanae smiled: "Pretty good ambition."

"However, classmate Butterfly, can you tell me how to become a strong and outstanding woman like you who is not afraid of power?" Ryoko Takano chirped like a lark, "You were so handsome just now."

"Am I like this?" Kanae's smile became a little helpless, "It's not a big deal, Takano can just be himself, if you can, don't learn from me."

"Ugh?"

[The belief of not being moved by outsiders is only forged after experiencing extreme pain. ]

……

Yoshiko Takano sent a letter to the Asahi Shimbun.

/ Teacher Dazai:

yours truly.

I am Yoshiko Takano. In your last lecture, I raised a clumsy question. The teacher also gave a subtle question about whether the ending of the teacher's masterpiece "Hello, Taisho" stopped at No. 20 days after the exhibition. Answer, thank you very much.

The original intention of writing this letter is to apologize to you, teacher. My reckless behavior has caused some troubles for the teacher and stained your flawless reputation with dust.And my own life in the dormitory has also become a little difficult. Many men made some ridicule about this, which made me very angry and puzzled at the same time...

After reading "A Doll's House", I suddenly realized that men and women are born equal, we have the same rights and the same ability to learn, but in real life, we are excluded, even if we are standing The same place of learning is still confined by gender...

This is very incorrect. I really want to change the current situation. The first step is to obtain a medical license and become an excellent doctor. Then I will improve my studies and establish a specialized school to provide convenience for women who are also ambitious...

It’s clearly a letter to you, teacher, but I’m talking about my own affairs throughout the text. I’m really sorry. I think the real reason for writing this letter may be just to get your evaluation from you, whether you support it or disagree. good……

In any case, it is the teacher's words that guide me in the direction of progress. /

When Xiao Zhuang came to Dazai to discuss the second short story, he happened to finish reading the letter from Ryoko Takano. They are all the same.

"Is the teacher finally ready to write the next work?" Xiao Zhuang asked cautiously, "Have you thought about the name of the work?"

"Think about it." Dazai smiled, "Let's call it a female reporter." He said, "I want to describe the story of a professional woman who grew up in the Taisho era and received a new education."

"Is it a tragedy? Or a comedy?"

"I don't know that."

He said coldly: "For those who are awake, growing up in this era, there is always more sorrow than happiness."

"From this point of view, it is better for most people to sleep to death in an iron room and die unconsciously."

"In the final analysis, the more you struggle, the more you will feel your own powerlessness." What is he thinking, is a person who uses a human body to compare himself to a ghost, is he a swordsman who is not understood but uses a sword to protect humans, or is it against social consciousness? The new woman who shouted?

Xiaozhuang: My heart is so cold.

"But." He couldn't help but say, "Even if you feel powerless, you still have to struggle."

"Ok?"

He summoned up his courage and said: "After wisdom is enlightened, you can never return to ignorance. What's more, there are still people who are struggling in this society and hope to make progress." Xiao Zhuang said, "It's like It’s you, Dazai-sensei, isn’t your article and your style of writing the power to support new women and bring comfort to their hearts?”

[From this point of view, Mr. Dazai is not as pessimistic as he said, to the point of despair. ]

[Ms. Dazai is a very nice and gentle person. ]

Xiao Zhuangsu believed so firmly.

The author has something to say:

I just like this kind of feeling that I clearly say that I am "desperate and black mud", but subconsciously reveal a ray of light wwww

Xiao Zhuang: Ah, Mr. Dazai is really gentle, and the ridicule of the society is also out of "sorrow for his misfortune, anger for his indisputability".
