Melanie, like many other children, is the second generation of monsters born from the infected mother, with both a monster and a human side.
In the eyes of soldiers, they are truly monsters.
In the eyes of scientists, they are tools to save mankind and develop antidote.
The female teacher in the base is the only one who thinks that their humanity is greater than that of monsters.
Melanie certainly didn't know her true identity, but she undoubtedly knew that she was different from ordinary people.
Her only idea is to be able to live like normal people.
She treasures pictures of kittens and tries to suppress what she thinks is inhuman in her body.
This kind of suppression by her is not so scheming, she has long wanted to destroy mankind.
On the contrary, it is the performance of a little girl who is eager to be recognized. She even shows off her humanity all the time.
The first turning point in the story was that the female teacher touched the little girl's head, and was then reprimanded by the sergeant.
After the sergeant wiped off the masking agent, Melanie seemed calm and composed among the frantic children.
She must have been very proud in her heart at that time. She felt that she was different from those people and that she was a human being.
So she confronted the sergeant for the first time because she felt that she should not be treated as a monster.
However, when the female teacher entered the cell in the middle of the night to untie her, the close contact made her uncontrollably mad.
This dealt a major blow to her heart, and she realized that she was actually no different.
So when the female scientist asked her for the number, she gave the number "4" for her cell.
Prior to this, she had faintly guessed that this might cause some bad things to happen.
The second turning point of the story was that the base was broken by a monster, and Melanie really saw the monster for the first time.
The feeling the monster gave her was disgusting + horrible.
At this moment, in her heart, there were only two camps of monsters and humans in this world.
And the base was destroyed, and the same kind she knew were doomed to death. So she stood with the humans and fled to the new base together.
The third turning point was that during the flight, Melanie gradually understood her own life experience and this world.
She found that this world feared by humans is actually no threat to her, on the contrary, it is full of novel things and delicious food.
But at this time she is still a lonely existence in the world.
So she cherishes the care that female teachers show to her, and her relationship with other humans seems to be improving.
But when she learned her true origins from scientists.
As smart as she can certainly imagine, there must be countless existences like her in the world.
Even, they are the real masters of this world, and her racial consciousness gradually awakened.
In the end, Melanie really discovered a group of existences that were the same as hers.
Race is no longer a vague concept but an actual existence.
At this time, human beings are no longer a choice of camp, but an obstacle to their race's survival.
Humans have technology beyond the reach of monsters.
And crucially, humans may develop corresponding vaccines and drugs at any time.
So when the scientist tried to stun her and use her to develop medicine.
Her last psychological barrier was gone.
She also learned from her the ways to speed up the infection process in the world.
So the destruction of the world is inevitable.
