"Some people are willing to sacrifice themselves, some are trying to save others, some are trying to get revenge, and some just can't stand the unpleasant things. Justice, justice is pale and humble, justice is powerful but cruel."

"Don't you understand this very well?"

The doctor smiled and asked:

"And I gave you the answer just now: the process of pursuing justice itself is justice. Detective, look, the story you just told is the story of a foreigner bringing justice to this city?"

"Doctor, I told you that you don't need to praise me."

Dr. Schneider moved his eyes away from Shade and continued to look at the bustling Moon Bay scenery on both sides of the river bank under the sun:

"I'm not complimenting you. Look in front of you, detective. This scene is your justice."

The huge tower bridge surrounded by dense scaffolding is full of workers. The noisy sounds come from both sides of the river bank under the bridge. The city is gray and warm yellow under the sun, like a lightly colored oil painting, or like fine brushstrokes.

of meticulous painting.

Ant-like people injected endless vitality into the city. The wind blew newspapers with Margaret's photo on them. There were still wanted notices for cultists commissioned by the church and issued by the city hall on the lampposts along the river bank.

Little Mia lay lazily on Shade's lap, and the sunlight made the cat's fur glow golden.

The sunshine was just right and the warm breeze was pleasant. The blue-eyed psychiatrist crossed his arms and looked into the distance. The stranger stroked the cat on his lap while looking at the city that he and his friends had saved.

The wind seemed to drag the light and shadow on the two people backward, and the birds hovering overhead flew across the sky and flew into the distance. The incomplete bridges in the building blended perfectly with the riverside scenery of the bustling steam city, and the river below their feet

The sparkling light complements the sunlight-reflecting tiles of the row upon row of houses.

The warm wind carried the clouds slowly drifting under the blue sky, and the flower petals blown by the wind drifted past Shade's face and flew to the unknown distance.

The vivid scene under the sun was so vivid that Shade felt that he really understood what Mr. Bernhard said when he said goodbye, and understood why he was so reluctant to let the summer of 1854 end like this.

The soft wind blew over my cheeks, and I took a deep breath. The warm air made my whole body feel full and comfortable. A gentle smile rang in my ears, as unreal as the iridescent light and shadow in the sun, or as if it was emerging at this moment.

Satisfyingly true:

[Sixth Epoch, Year 1854 of the Universal Calendar, Flower Moon. The severe cold dispelled the warm wind of summer, and the excessive dazzling light was not always beneficial. The prophecies sent by the ancient gods from the old days destroyed the ancient city, and the new gods

The hope gained from death composes a new ending. The gluttonous dragon flies in the sky, and the blood-thirsty beast lurks in the shadows. When you and they draw the sword of justice and point it at the powerful enemy, and the golden thunder strikes down, the eternal light shines.

Where, foreigners who offer sacrifices to the ancient silver moon, across time and destiny, civilization and years will record everything. May you run around the world with this light.]

Shade listened intently. He felt that until this moment, all the adventure stories of Moon Bay had finally turned the last page.

This scene under the sun was so beautiful. Although there was sacrifice and sadness, he thought this was the best ending this story could have.

Of course, Dr. Schneider beside him didn't know what Shade was thinking. He just stretched out his right hand and pointed his palm upward, as if he wanted to use this hand to catch a ray of light:

"Detective, although I just said that everyone's justice is different, would you like to hear what I think is justice? Let's talk about this matter from the perspective of a psychiatrist."

"certainly."

He sat there and gently stroked Miss Gold's cat.

"Detective, my justice is to bring a ray of light to every patient whose heart is shrouded in shadow."

When talking about his own job, Dr. Schneider is quite serious:

"Of course it is insignificant compared to what you have done. But the two things are actually the same. We cannot solve every trouble in the world, and sometimes we can't even solve the troubles we encounter.

.

But even so, it is still valuable to let yourself be a ray of light to illuminate a dark soul and a dark life."

"That sounds amazing."

Shade praised, and the doctor waved his hand that "caught" the light forward, as if to cover the entire Moon Bay:

"You can't save everyone, Detective, and you can't manipulate everyone into doing what you think they should do.

So, give them a ray of light or let yourself be that ray of light, let them see the hope of life and the future, and then people will follow that ray of light. This was the case before, and it is the same now.

I can enlighten those bored minds, and you can point out the direction for people's lives. In my opinion, justice is probably this kind of thing. Don't think of yourself as too great, but don't think that you can't do anything. Look, you

It has become that ray of light. Now it is not only the sun that illuminates Moon Bay, but also you and the gentleman who volunteered to sacrifice."

"Doctor, you are always so eloquent."

Shade praised, Dr. Schneider shook his head, but there was clearly a smile on his face.

"If justice, give me a ray of light?"

Shade looked down at his right hand, and at the same time, tiny streams of light gathered behind him to form a holy emblem in the shape of a golden dragon head. Because Shade was sitting while the doctor was standing, Dr. Schneider only squinted slightly, and it was very clear.

Saw this scene.

But the "well-informed" doctor was not surprised, and he didn't even say anything. He tried to blink his eyes, and the luminous circular emblem disappeared from behind Sha De.

The doctor clasped his hands on his chest, raised his head slightly and continued to look at the scenery on the other side of the Taton River under the bridge:

"What a peaceful day. Detective, I don't know what the weather was like the day you first came to Yuewan, but such a legendary and beautiful story should end on such an ordinary but sunny day.

"

Little Mia's paw patted Shade's right hand, and he asked to continue stroking.

Shade had no choice but to give up looking at his hand, and continued to look at Yuewan while touching little Mia.

They at the end of the construction bridge are just two black spots when viewed from a higher place, while the Yuewan City seen from a higher place looks like a living creature full of vitality. The sun shines on the city, and thousands of sails are moored in the harbor.

Perhaps experiencing a disaster will leave dark wounds, but as long as the light is still there, hope is still there.

"Regardless of whether I have given others light about their lives and future, at least I am a light in little Mia's 'cat life'."

It is rare for outsiders to think proudly in their hearts. One person continues to stand and the other continues to sit at the end of the bridge. They will probably stay here for a while before leaving.

A flock of pigeons flew over their heads, but only a small shadow flashed past.

The white pigeons flew over the pier, over the Moon Bay Bridge, over Herring Street, over Spider Alley under the blue sky, and finally landed in twos and threes on the upper edge of the dial on the terrace of Belindell's Big Ben.

The pointer moves to the next grid.

At the end of the bridge, someone seemed to be hugging Sha De from behind, and "her" gentle voice came from the wind:

【Outlander, you have gained new strength.】
