Genius isn't genius enough, bad isn't bad enough

Alfie's weakness is that he clearly came out to mix, but he couldn't wipe out all his conscience, and couldn't be an out-and-out jerk, like the "genius is not genius enough, bad enough not bad enough" in Huang Shujun's lyrics, so always tangled. I don't want to hurt others. In fact, I have been doing things to hurt others, so I will feel special pain after being injured, but there is nothing to hurt others, and he deserves it.
