Kindness is in the bones. For those who don't want to turn back to their bones, even if they are in a thick fog and can't see any light, I want to persist, and persist for a while.

"Orphan in the Fog" should be written to Oliver and Nancy, one is the kindness in the bones, the other is the sturdiness in the bones. I just finished watching "Orphan in the Fog", and I couldn't calm down for a long time.

I thought Oliver would slowly become one of them, after all, he was just a kid.

For the first time, when he didn't eat well in the workhouse, didn't wear warm clothes, and was bullied by other children, I thought he would jump up and fight back, but he didn't. Because he is too young, and hunger makes him unable to fight back.

Later, when he arrived at the coffin shop, Oliver’s life was much better than the workhouse, because he was full. Although he could only eat leftovers from the coffin shop owner’s dog at the beginning, his life seemed to be better compared to the previous one. Some.

He is also very competitive. In a short period of time, Noah, who has done much better than him and has always bullied him, has done even better, which has won the heart of the coffin shop owner. It's just that a magnanimous gentleman is always easy to provoke extreme dissatisfaction with the villain, and getting into trouble is a trick that the villain is proud of.

Noah was beaten severely by Oliver for insulting Oliver's mother, but the proprietress of the coffin shop put all the faults on Oliver, and all Oliver was beaten by the boss who was worried about his wife.

When the boss's fist was slammed at Oliver, one can imagine the despair in his heart. The boss, who thought he would at least listen to him explaining just a few words, actually used his fist directly, and his extremely hope disappeared without a trace at this moment. It turns out that these days are just wishful thinking that the boss is a good person.

So when I leave early in the morning, I just want to leave quickly, even if I am penniless, even if the road ahead is long and unknown, compared to this cold and ruthless coffin shop, no matter how bad the other footholds are, they will not be better than this. It's worse.

Later, when he traveled a long distance until he was exhausted and his feet were bloody and bloody, he encountered the "thief". The thief treated Oliver with great hospitality. Oliver was very grateful in his heart, but he was also hesitating whether to continue to have a deep friendship with the thief. Deep down, he was already Have doubts about the thief.

For a ten-year-old child who has such a keen vigilance and has been living in a situation of being abused, starved and cold, he can continue to fight against people and things that he thinks is bad, which is true for him. It's commendable. The best explanation is that his kindness comes from his own bones, and he can quickly detect what is contrary to his own bones.

So, in fact, no matter how dangerous he was in the future, I always believed that he would not go bad, because the goodness in his bones cannot be assimilated, no matter how bad the environment is, the people around him are no more sinister. Oliver would insist on his kindness when he was very young, and he would continue that kindness even more as he grew up. This is due to his nature.

Somewhat unexpectedly: Oliver is willing to divide his inherited property in half to his half-brother, Monks.

Monks was the final demon who put Oliver in dire straits time and time again and even almost died. It was the greatest forgiveness to give him a way out, and he did not expect to divide his property in half.

This is also what the author wants to prove once again that Oliver is indeed extremely kind.

Nancy is also one of the "Orphans in the Fog". Unlike Oliver, Oliver is so kind that makes people distressed, and Nancy is so strong that people admire.

From the beginning, Nancy felt that Oliver was different from the group around him, and even very similar to the original self, and was unwilling to join this group. It should be said that he was disdainful of joining them.

Since Nancy desperately defended Oliver, I began to admire her. Explain that she also hopes to be like Oliver, she can put kindness in the corner of her heart, and tell them at any time: I am different from you. However, she was too late. She had already gone too far on this road of no return, and it was no longer realistic to return to the original appearance.

The same kind likes to protect the same kind, which may be the reason why Nancy defends Oliver.

Nancy told Rose what she had seen and heard, not only because she wanted to help Oliver, she had similarities with Oliver. It's also because Rose treats her with great respect, not a little bit of arrogance, but calm and equal treatment. Based on this, she can perceive with her sophisticated eyes: Rose is a trustworthy person. While she will help Oliver, she will also keep her promise.

This is totally killing two birds with one stone for her, because Nancy wants to help Oliver, but she wants to protect herself and Bill even more so that Bill and her have a way out. When the comrades were sent to the gallows, she hoped to use this exchange to give them a living.

You see, at any time, Nancy always puts herself and Bill together. Even if Rose promised her and promised that she could go to a more comfortable and safe place to start her life again, she still refused.

It's not that she can't believe in Rose, but that she can't let Bill go. She said that Bill would die without her, and Bill would not do without her.

I don't know if Bill would ruthlessly beat her to death when he heard Nancy thinking about him, would he feel a little bit intolerable, would he feel a little bit guilty.

When Bill heard what Noah had told him, he went home furiously and went straight to the room to close the door. He pulled a table against the door, pulled up the sleeping Nancy, and hit Nancy with a gun. In the face (shooting will cause neighbors’ attention and inconvenience), then continue to hit with wooden sticks.

Maybe Bill really has no feelings for Nancy, or he believes in Noah and Fagin too much. In other words, Bill believes in Fagin and Noah more than Nancy, otherwise he won’t even have a chance to explain. Don't give Nancy, or give Nancy a chance to make a final statement.

Perhaps you would think that he was too impulsive at the moment, he was overkill.

However, this is not the case. It took a long time for Bill to return from Fagin’s residence, and he had time to think about the credibility of Fagin and Noah’s "Words of One Side", or to think about Nancy's various cares for himself. Furthermore, Bill's series of actions to kill Nancy were series and calm, without any overactive reactions.

During the period, you can even think about it: the sound of gunshots will attract the attention of neighbors and cause inconvenience to yourself.

Therefore, Bill is for vicious people, without any old feelings.

Look again, he thinks that his dog will also be wanted. After all, he and his dog are extremely hateful to the people of London. In order not to let his dog be found and drag him down, he wants to put him Dog drowned.

If it hadn't been for the human nature of dogs and found Ni Duan running away before he was ready, his dog would be ruthlessly killed by him like Nancy.

At last, Bill also died in his own hands. Zhengyin: Good and evil will eventually be rewarded. But it was also worthless for Nancy, and for Oliver's misery.

Although kindness does not distinguish between high and low, as long as it is kind, it should be respected and believed in. But compared to the kindness of Ross and Brownlow, I think the kindness of Nancy and Oliver is even more commendable.

Because the kindness of orphans in the foggy city is more difficult and difficult than the kindness of smooth-sailing children.
