After watching so many thrillers and crime movies, plus some historical events, I have never doubted that human nature is evil. How good a person is can be measured, but how evil is infinitely expanding. The essence of human nature is not the politeness reflected under the coat of layers of civilization, but it depends on whether the behavior is not as good as the beast when there is no restraint.
This hollow man is the most direct reaction to the inherent evil of human nature.
Sebastian first appeared in the image of a genius scientist, and at the same time acted with an unruly and bohemian temperament. It was also because of his ability and genius that he had the space and qualifications to get rid of some constraints. There was a pursuit of humanity in him. Get rid of the constraints as much as possible within the constraints. But at the same time, he can be seen, and he may be punished for what he did, so after peeping at the female neighbor on the opposite side, he could only look up and see "you should be working" and continue to work.
But when he became invisible, he unbuttoned his female colleague's clothes at first, and later raped his neighbor. He is trying step by step how much space the invisible gift can give himself. His greed is only petty greed, but it is the most direct manifestation of human nature. What he did in the beginning was not a high-level criminal act, but purely animalistic desire. Starting from satisfying his most primitive instinctive desire, he found that escaping punishment is so simple and moral. And the law seems to have no effect on a transparent person. This behavior displayed in the case of almost no restraint is the deepest speech in nature.
But there were still people who knew who did these things, and Sebastian began to make a big leap, from lewd rape to murder, a very fast triple jump, stemming from his inner desire for infinite expansion and his motivation to reduce the discovery of his crimes. If everyone in the know dies, then he can freely try to what extent his abilities can be expanded. I have no doubt that if Sebastian succeeds in the end and goes to the ground transparently alone, what he does will definitely not be just robbery, rape or murder, there will be "inspiration" and new ideas constantly emerging, waiting for him to realize one by one .
