Chapter 5 Hello, Teacher (Part 2) The Terminator of the Old Times

The living room without the teacher looked very deserted, both Weijia and Basha seemed a little confused. Lala looked at them with cold eyes.Weijia subconsciously swallowed another sip of champagne; Basha took off his glasses and took out a handkerchief to wipe them carefully. Without the cover of the lenses, his eyes only showed fear; They hoped, but at the moment he also felt powerless.After all, he is only eighteen years old... Vega: What's the matter with you, Valodya!Brothers, can't go!What kind of thing is this?Tomorrow she will be wild!Teach us a lesson!Look at the way she yelled at the end.

Valodya, tell them. Basha: (to Valodya) Listen, you are not afraid... things will get worse? Valodya: (without looking at Lara) Never mind about our men, girl.If I do something, I will do it to the end.No matter what it will cost me.Understood? Vetya: Yes, Valodya!Afraid of her doing?She can't do anything to us!She is noble and principled.Even, what our grades should be, she will not give us a single point tomorrow.Isn't it, Valodya? Valodya: He is right.Our Yelena Sergeyevna has an Antigone complex.Wei Jia: What what? Valoja: That is to say, the idealized understanding of reality has risen to the principle of being a human being.That is, when violence is applied to them personally and to the beliefs they hold, they will rise up heroically.The relationship here is proportional to this.The more pressure you apply, the more aggressive and specific the struggle you will encounter.This instinct produced the leaders and heroes of the Revolutionary War.But in their daily life in peaceful times, they are just a group of weirdos who don't know the fireworks in the world.Everyone laughed at them, no one took them seriously.Therefore, the scenes of being criticized and besieged are all dreamed of for them, because you have given them a stage to show their spiritual power.Yelena Sergeyevna really should—in principle, thanks to us, it was we who asked her for the key and made her realize herself.

Basha: What's the next step? Valodya: I thought it was absolutely impossible to leave here now.The question is not whether she will report on us tomorrow, even if we leave now, there is still a risk.Our mission is to turn her from accuser to accomplice. Basha: If she is what you say—Antigone, then she will never be our accomplice.Valodya: Well, first, there is no pure Antigone in real life; second, for each psychological type, there is an optional key to open it.Let me say one more thing.I've found a way to destroy "Antigone"—(Pause. Everyone looks at Valodya curiously) Violently.

Wei Jia: If we leave her...that, who will give us the key? Valodya: Say it again: with violence.Not to Antigone herself, it would be pointless to do that.Instead, Antigone used violence against those close to her. Weijia: How can she use violence against someone close to her? Volodya: (sarcastically) That's right, Vetya, we grabbed you and said to her: Yelena Sergeyevna, either give us the key, or we'll throw him from the seventh floor. Vega: You, philosopher, what a joke! Valodya: Why is it a joke? (seriously) But use it with extreme caution.When the opponent's psychological and moral defenses collapse, we will give her a fatal blow and finally defeat her.

Wei Jia: Why... you really want to throw me downstairs? Valodya: Don't get excited, I'll play by ear.But first we have to complete the task of destroying the opponent's moral defense. Weijia: Us?How do you destroy Faer, Valodya? Valodya: Honestly, you are like children!Lala! (smiles) Well, it looks like Lara knows what I mean. Lala: (smiling) I don't understand. Basha: Generally speaking, all idealists are blind to reality. Valodya: Exactly!She should be opened to see the world.Let her know that she lives at the - let's say - bottom of society.Show her people in real life, represented by us. (with a smile) Let our faces look like wolves to her!To put it bluntly, it is to play the role of social scum.

Wei Jia: This trick is fucking great!We show her realism!Can we... let's drink enough first?To be more natural when acting. Basha: What, you still need to act?Valodya: It depends, if necessary—you can just get drunk. Vega: Understood.I still have red wine in my bag. Valodya: (frowning) Oh, Vetya, the incorrigible drunkard. Wei Jia: Think about it, in order to get things done.Drink it or not, it's up to you! Valoja: Lara, do you object to our plan of action? (Lala shrugs) You don't think the plan is stupid, do you? (Lara is silent) Well, very well, I'm glad.All the remaining ones will naturally vote "yes" and there is no need to vote.We are not a bunch of bureaucrats.

Volodya is like a lobbying politician, and he has almost used all his skills—philosophical, social, artistic, etc., and he has once again defended his central position.In the end, he stretched out his palms in front of everyone, Weijia's hand, Basha's hand, and Lala's, and the four returned to the same front again.When the four young hands held together, Valoja's face showed a long-lost sense of superiority and confidence... The door opened unexpectedly, and Yelena Sergeyevna's voice came out: "Lara, can I speak to you?" The students looked at each other in silence.pause.Lala acted hesitantly.

Wei Jia: Hey, Lala, go! Basha: You and her, mainly from the perspective of women.Bring up all the woman's problems and put pressure on her. Valoja: Proper control must be exercised.She is smart.She will understand it herself. (pulls and pulls gently) Huh?Lala glanced at her companions, smiled and walked to the kitchen alone. Wei Jia: Let's secretly... listen to what they have to say.The students gathered around the door handle. Yelena: Why don't you go?I give you a chance to leave!Don't you understand?Do you know the consequences?I think at least you - you're a girl!

Lala: I'm not a girl.Yelena: Hi, it's not important.It's a scandal.If you still——don't leave now, the consequences will be disastrous.Do you know what is waiting for you?You can't even get a diploma!Your actions violated the law. Lara: You overestimated your own strength. Yelena: What do you mean by overestimating your own strength?go to jail!Girl, do you understand, it's going to jail! Lala: Why? Yelena: Why for what?I'm just confused.What the hell happened?Why are you so fearless? Lala: I don't know. Yelena: Are you... not afraid? Lala: We are not afraid of you.pause.

Yelena: Well, in this case, you guys need to be rescued.You are like a bunch of blind kittens who don't know how much trouble you have caused. Yela: Yelena Sergeyevna, I want to give you a piece of friendly advice.You're wasting your time with them, to be honest.You give them the keys.I did this a long time ago, and now they have finished their work and returned it to you, and it has stopped and stopped.You also have peace of mind. Yelena: Lala, what, are you serious?This is vile business!mean! Lara: But life itself is a dirty joke, Yelena Sergeyevna, don't you see? (Pause) Excuse me, do you have to squeeze the bus every day?Well, don't ask, because you don't have your own car.Of course, you have never paid attention to the faces of the female teachers and staff in our school, their rusty and frowning faces.Everyone has painful and heavy expressions on their faces, as if they are dragging a heavy bag of flour in their hands.Especially when sending the children to kindergarten every morning, look at their miserable faces!I see other women in my life, what kind of women are they?Get off from the colorful cars, pass by the sweaty policemen who are busy maintaining order, and watch the films participating in the international film festival in the capital cinema. These films are invisible to ordinary people.Oh, their faces are moist and smooth, like gifts wrapped in cellophane!

These words flowed naturally from Lala's heart, and she didn't need to organize, embellish or process anything.She looks calm and persuasive, like a knowledgeable teacher conveying her unique insights to students.And our dear teacher Yelena just sat there quietly and listened... pause. Yelena: So what's the matter? Lala: I'm done. Yelena: I see.You want to live a life of ease. Lala: Why not?If there is such a life, why can't I live it?It seems that I also have this capital. Yelena: Is this happiness? Lara: Happiness—well, lies in the struggle for wealth.By the way, we have become complacent and insensitive.Like my mom—she's a librarian—likes to say, "Needs should be restrained." Yelena: In your opinion, that's wrong? Lala: But my mom just suppressed her own needs.As for my needs, she always meets them in different ways.When I needed to buy new clothes, she would scurry out to find odd jobs for sweepers.Clothes, Yelena Sergeyevna, were a passport to the good life these days.Yelena: That's living a parasitic life, aren't you ashamed? Lala: Some people are lucky, why can't we rely on him? ... Yelena Sergeyevna, let's talk like woman to woman.See for yourself what you're wearing... Yelena: (at a loss) How... Lala: You're the laughing stock of the whole school! Yelena: No. Lala: You're a woman of taste, but God knows what you wear.Who still looks like you today?And your hairdo, it's been a while since you last went to the salon? . . . four rubles a bottle of your perfume! ... Yelena: Enough!My mother is sick and needs money for medical treatment.Lala: I don't understand, how can you be so indifferent to yourself?How do you live?No one loves, no one cares, no little things that make life less painful and pleasant, no joy, no love!You are not a woman, Yelena Sergeyevna, you are an advanced newspaper worker in skirts!And you accuse us of trying to live human lives.Yelena: Human life? Lala: You know, everybody wants to get more of society's wealth. Yelena: (forcefully) No, not everyone. Lala: I want to—everyone wants to, but not everyone can do it.Those who can't get it say they don't want it, use morality as an excuse, and lie!You can also see, it is impossible not to see what is happening, but you are also lying.Why? Yelena: What is happening now has happened in any era.Some people live in peace, but there are others who stick to their values ​​and ideals, and this has been the case since ancient times.Why do you conclude that these people no longer exist?Let the evil forces run rampant! ...If everyone in the world is on the side of evil, even on that day, they can still be alone!If only one man could say to the wide world, "Be no evil," just one man—evil would retreat, and good and justice would triumph. Lara: (laughing loudly) Well, you know... No wonder our Valodia called you Antigone! Yelena: What?who?Lara: (stops laughing) Mythical beings... Yelena: Well, tell me, what do the words honor, conscience, and pity mean to you? Lala: Why don't you ask about kindness, self-respect, they are fashionable now.I hate answering bugs!Don't you feel bored?I trampled everything first, and now I'm talking about my conscience.Would you like to know, Yelena Sergeyevna, what is the difference between you and us?Your life is a struggle to live the most basic life, and we are the struggle to live the best life.Yes, I am scheming, I have to calculate every step of my life, for fear of repeating my mother's fate.There are even considerations that I have not lost my virginity so far.Someday it will fetch a better price.Sell ​​to whoever is willing to pay a high price! Yelena: But you... love Basha. Lala: I'm not in love so much that he doesn't want to marry.In the future, maybe there will be someone more promising than him.Behind the door, the boys couldn't hold back a "puchi" laugh.Basha blushed, and he rushed into the kitchen, rushed to Lara, and slapped her across the face. Basha: Badass! pause. It was a terrible pause, and everyone in the room was still, still in the sound of the slap.For a moment, we could hear the sound of tears streaming from Lala's eyes, just the sound of tears, no sobbing, no choking, because no one was crying here... Lala: Now, let alone I marry you, it is impossible to sit with you. Basha: Didn't you tell me... Lala: Yes, what's wrong? Basha: You said so. Lala: I said I would marry you, but on a conditional basis, have you forgotten? Basha: I haven't forgotten.Lala: Then what are you excited about?Try Harder!We are the creators of our own happiness, Yelena Sergeyevna, don't you think? Yelena: May I know under what conditions did you marry Basha? Lala: The condition is that we don't live in poverty. Basha: You know, you know, we won't. Lala: I only know one thing: If you want to live a good life these days, you have to be a shameless person.But I'm not sure if I will still love you when you become such a person. Basha: So do you love me now?Now?I haven't become shameless yet!I need to know do you love me now?Ok? Lara: (shouting) Yes, yes, yes!How could I not love you, you are so infatuated, so obedient, and the conditions are so good, you have a house!As for me, a girl who has no money, no power and nothing to worry about, I'm counting on your love!I can't live without you! Basha: What are you talking about?Shut up. Lala: I hate you!hate you! This scene is not what Valoja expected, "love"? !This absurdity cost him two companions in an instant.The only thing he can order is Wei Jia, how much hope can he have for this drunkard and trash... Valodya: (behind the door) They both screwed up.Hey, Weijia, take another sip to strengthen your courage and rush forward! Vega: (drinking a few sips from the bottle) I can do it, see.Vija ran to the kitchen, holding an open half bottle of Portvin in both hands.He is a little drunk.Vega: Oh, guys, I can't take it anymore!I can't take it anymore, guys!Yelena Sergeyevna, where is your cup? (groping in the cupboard) I can't stand this family tragedy anymore, my strength is gone!My dad was a tough guy, but even he had to dodge the thunder and lightning.I saw him cry once with my own eyes, I really cried, you know who he is!Vegetable Station Master!All relatives depend on him to support!Queen of the hive!But he is afraid of my mother.As long as my mother fights with him, God!God!Our family lived an unhuman life, just like in the fairy tale about the fisherman and the goldfish. Our wealth started from the washtub, and the end...the end is not there yet, anyway, it must be at the level of hereditary nobles.Dad is afraid when he thinks of the ending... so who is the goldfish girl in our family?Father's authority. (laughs) Well, who's drinking with me? Yelena: (snatches the bottle vigorously) How dare you!I don't allow it!at my place! (pours wine into sink) Weijia: Oh, oh, what did you do?I have stood for three hours for it!Oh, Yelena Sergeyevna, my nerves are fragile.I used to be very orthodox, but sometimes I can...be violent to people.I have epilepsy and I have seizures like Dostoevsky, Pasha, don't you?Want to show it off?look! (suddenly falls to the floor and trembles convulsively) I'm sick, see?Paroxysmal.In fact, I am disabled and can't stand any stimulation.Every time I score two points, it will be like this. Yelena: (slowly) I didn't know you were drinking...horrible! Vega: (gets up from the floor as if nothing happened) No, look, I'm drunk!But I really can't stand this annoying thing, even if it never existed in the world!My dad sometimes binge-drinks without restraint.Dad was originally a painter, he was self-taught, he did market decoration, designed all kinds of windows, and then somehow, unknowingly became the stationmaster of the vegetable station.Whenever he drinks too much, you listen to his big set of philosophies!About all aspects of life, about art... he said, "Veja, I'm a villain."He said, "I sold my soul for thirty silver pieces, I sold all my holy ideals, and I drank it all. But you can't do that!" That's what he said to me. "Otherwise I will come out from the underworld to look for you, remember." I said, Dad, what is the ideal now?He trembled all over.He said: "People have become villains, capitalists, and coolies. There is no principle in life." He said: "We have dedicated our lives for them." I said, who gave their lives?Dad, isn't that you?I say that the man who gave his life has been forgotten.I said, Dad, don't be angry, what kind of era is it now... Yelena: Times are made by man.This is our time and it is with us. Vega: Yelena Sergeyevna, I say the same thing, life must go on anyway.Dad also said that by all indications, the end of the world was coming.According to the Bible, how to say... Aha, women are barren - number one, men don't work - number two.Without energy, fish in the ocean die, surrounded by chemical pollution and radiation.Ordinary people don't know all this. The whole process is happening quietly and unconsciously, and only scholars can see it clearly.Imagine what it would be like if word of the end of the world spread?At that time, I am afraid that I will not even be able to buy a match.Anyway, the whole world is going to be one big smelly garbage dump soon, full of flies, flies... It is said that only flies survived the atomic bomb... Yelena: Strange talk!Your father is an asshole! Vega: No!If he is a drunkard and a thief, I agree.He's not a jerk, he's a good guy, he's suffered a lot.i love my dad.If my father committed a crime, he will repent.And for those who repent... Yelena: A sinner who repents is no longer guilty.Only Judas... Vega: Judas did not repent, he hanged himself.My father was so pitiful, he said, "I'm going to hang myself one day. And then she'll have to go out and work like everybody else, and she'll know what a pound of sausage is worth!" It means my mother...I'll catch you, you bastard now! (chasing a fly, falls over, and knocks the cutlery off the table with a bang) If the clown's performance is bad, let's not take Vija's behavior as a performance, because he says Every word of his words is true, the truth in his heart.However, he acts too much like a clown.Who would carefully ponder the words of a clown, even though what he said was from the bottom of his heart... Yelena: God, you're totally drunk. Basha: I'm not drunk, Yelena Sergeyevna, am I?But I have nothing good to say about my parents.Do you think, Professor Andreevsky --- my father's research leader, why didn't his son ask you for a score?humbly begging you?Because he had already secured a place in the university since he was born, and because his father plagiarized other people's results shamelessly.And my father, you see, never used papers for personal gain.Why do I have to give up my seat to everyone passing by?This is my seat!mine!If need be, I will fight the enemy with a bayonet to see the red.You can't live without this! Yelena: Shut up!Hear what you all had to say!Tomorrow—you all come to school!God!It's all bullshit!hypocrite!Who do we train? Basha: We should ask you instead: Hypocrites, what kind of people have you trained?Valodya: (looks into the kitchen, happily) What's so loud, is there a fight?Yelena Sergeyevna, you should have woken up the neighbors right and left.While sitting here, I went through your stamp album.Did you buy these stamps on the black market?how much did you spend?Yelena Sergeyevna, do you know what time it is? Yelena: I can't give you the keys, Valodya.do not give. Valodya: (yawns) Sorry, I'm sleepy.How boring!Gentlemen, as far as your ability to do things is concerned, it is far behind.There is no aura at all.Let me tell you what's good about you?Very mediocre, not efficient. (Pause.) Yelena Sergeyevna, you have no objection to our searching your house? Yelena: Why... search? Valoja: Like with a suspect. Yelena: How dare you!do not come! VEDYA: (approaching Yelena Sergeyevna) Don't be afraid, Yelena Sergeyevna. (stops, pauses, to Valodya) Isn't that too much, huh?Valodya: (shrugs, indifferently) The master is the master.I command you to do so. Wei Jia: Understood.One minute.I'm sorry, Yelena Sergeyevna.I move so civilly that you don't even feel it. (The hands fumble quickly and unexpectedly over Yelena Sergeyevna.) That's over, Yelena Sergeyevna, sorry. (to Valodya) No. Valodya: I knew it!What's the matter, look for it in the room too? Wei Jia: What?This... is fine. (Taps Basha on the shoulder) What are you standing there with your mouth open?go!Pasha walked out of the kitchen slowly, followed by Valodya and Vitya. Lara: (quickly approaching Yelena Sergeyevna) Give them the keys!I warned you!give them! Yelena: (With tears in her eyes, she stubbornly shakes her head back and forth) No, no, no! It was just a key, but Yelena's answer was so firm.The living room, which was still very lively before, now only has a sad atmosphere left.This thin and unyielding body intensifies this desolate chill... The young man searched around the room.Young people are the creators of the new era and the terminator of the old era.They are destroying an old world they despise, but can they create a new, new and better world?At this moment, they are ending their life, future, youth...
