There is a straight line of cypress trees planted on the side of the highway near Dianchi Lake. When the wind passes over the treetops, it seems that the sound of the wind can be heard through the closed window glass, and there is also the sound of the waves beating against the shore behind the bushes. . The sound of the hallucinations will always inadvertently lead me to a place with a similar background: Barbara is riding a bicycle, crossing the path between the fields and the bushes alone, the sea breeze is raging at the highest point of the big trees, behind the bushes is The endless waves... If you ignore Barbara's situation, I can feel a certain isolation and tranquility from this day-to-day scene, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. But this is just my wishful thinking. The seemingly peaceful life is actually a kind of house arrest for Barbara. who is she? Where did she come from? Why is she here? The introduction to her is very simple: a female doctor transferred from a big hospital in a big city, to be precise, she was transferred to an unknown place after she was released from prison. The reason is unknown, because she had a boyfriend outside the Berlin Wall? I don't understand the historical background of that era. Otherwise, there is nothing more to know about her. She is very indifferent, and is alertly alienated from her colleagues and neighbors around her. She was also very gentle. To a girl, Sandra, who was in a miserable situation, a patient she met when she first entered the hospital-contracted meningitis while hiding in the field in order to escape the detention center. Go to work-go home, two o'clock on the line, alone. Her life is simple, but not peaceful --- the landlord is an all-pervasive monitor. There will always be a small car parked outside the window. From time to time, someone will come to her door and force her to have an insulting physical examination, and in the hospital at any time. Will be beaten and reported... Others, who are the eyes of an invisible power organization, stare at her coldly, making people feel an invisible oppression. Except for a pair of eyes, sympathetic to her or another deep gaze---Andre, a male doctor, is actually one of her monitors, but he hasn't completely assimilated into a numb monitor. He is a very interesting person, always sober Seeing the darkness, he is limited in his ability and can only do some effort within his capacity; he is not in the same way, and he is not too bad for the sickness of the "bad guys"; in such a depressed environment, he has a sunny, vanilla fragrant Back garden; he thinks a doctor should have the consciousness of a country doctor; he knows how to mediate between darkness and light, he sympathizes with her situation, because he also comes from a better place, he does not understand her arrogance, because of them One thing that has different backgrounds is that they are both doctors, and they have not been crushed by the environment into doctors who have lost their conscience and personality. He cherishes this, but she ignores it, because, in his opinion, it is commendable, and it is only natural to her that he wants to keep her, just like she is a light that illuminates his life. She wants to leave, because life makes She endured too much darkness, so there was a delicate contest between them. A boy suffered a brain injury from an attempted suicide by jumping from a building. Barbara carefully diagnosed that the boy’s condition was critical, and Andre invited a medical expert. The mentor was preparing for a craniotomy, the eve before Barbara was about to escape. Andre asked Barbara to assist in the operation, but she was noncommittal. Isn’t there another doctor who can do it? She dismissed her vocation as a doctor, and just wanted to go home to be ready. Her boyfriend had arranged everything for her to escape. She didn't expect that Sandela, who had escaped again, lay covered in blood and waited for her at the door of her house. What mistake did this girl make to be locked up in the detention center? There is no explanation. Only know that she is pregnant. If her detainee knows, she must be subjected to inhuman torture again. Barbara calmly helped the girl deal with the wound, taking advantage of the night to take her to the designated location by the sea. When it was getting light, she gave Sandella all the money her boyfriend had prepared for her, and a tearful letter. Then, she sent the girl away... Andre was sitting in a hospital bed. On the side, the sleeping boy was out of danger after the operation the night before. He sat there, thoughtful, with hollow eyes. Last night, after the operation, he rushed to Barbara’s place and she had already left... At this moment, Barbara walked in, sat opposite him, smiled Andre did not keep her doctor’s vocation did not keep her In order to make Sundella and the baby in her belly live, she stayed No one knows what she will face--- maybe she will never be able to meet her boyfriend again, maybe she will accept Andrei, maybe she will continue to be indifferent and alienated, maybe she will have to face closer and more cruel surveillance... but no doubt From then on, her life has a meaning that is enough to endure humiliation, until the light of reason dispels the absurd darkness. At this point, I remembered a passage: Goodness...is a person who has to be rational in public or private life. To act, his eyes must stare at the power. ---Socrates
