The male protagonist devoutly believes in Protestant ethics and diligently builds a happy life in his mind. When he is infinitely close to happiness, a certain shadow in his heart gradually becomes clear, so there is a strong wind at the beginning.
The heroine represents his suppressed humanity and his heart that is ready to move. Infidelity is a betrayal of faith, which makes the male protagonist realize that the happiness he pursues is not worth mentioning, that is, the denial of faith by human nature. Killing a third person is like castration, but killing a person in order to maintain belief itself violates belief.
According to some religions, people are born with sin. A person of faith can suppress this sin with faith. However, just like bluebeard's wives, one more look, lost their lives, once you see the crack in the faith, like the murder case, you can no longer pretend that everything does not exist, and the faith can no longer be maintained, this is the truth cost. At the end, the male protagonist and the female protagonist reconcile, that is, to reach reconciliation with their own sins and accept the fact that they will never be freed. It can also be considered to have started the transformation of belief, just like the transformation of classical physics to modern physics.
Moving from the city to the suburbs is for the sake of the children, and it is also because of the children that the female protagonist decides to break up the affair, and the male protagonist surrenders himself for the sake of the children. If infidelity is a prerequisite for transformation, then the belief that makes people persist through the transformation period stems from maintaining inner innocence, and children symbolize innocence.
