Chapter 1081: Silent Man, Strong Hero
Child! That is the most important part of every mother, or a woman who is about to become a mother.
For women with such an identity role, children are more important than their lives. This is by nature and is also a cultural heritage that has been changed by humans for tens of thousands of years. Under these two premises, I believe that for many mothers, even if they are asked to exchange their lives for their children's future, it will be an unquestionable answer.
And in this case, how huge the blow would mean to lose a child is also an obvious answer.
It can be said that when she heard Zhou Yi say this, Maria was completely stunned. She stroked her belly in disbelief, trying to feel the throbbing feeling of life from it. But the total silence and an indescribable feeling of depression could only make her heart sink to the bottom of the valley as if she fell off a cliff.
Pain and despair immediately flooded her heart like a tide, making her helplessly hold Tony's collar at this time, looking at his eyes, and asking desperately like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw.
"Tony, tell me it's not true, tell me it's not true. Our kids, our kids?"
Her voice was already filled with crying, and the expression on her face began to become stunned. Tears slid down from the corners of her eyes almost broken, making Tony, who was holding her, feel heartbroken immediately.
For Tony, although the child is very important, it cannot compare to Maria's position in his heart. So when he saw a positive answer in Zhou Yi's eyes, he immediately hugged Maria's body hard, hugged her tightly with the force that seemed to be rubbing her into her arms, and then comforted her quietly in her ear.
"Don't be sad, Maria. We can still have rebirth without the child. As long as you and I are here, we still have hope. So let go and don't be too sad!"
He tried hard to comfort the grieving Maria, but this effort was in vain. Because it was hit too much, Maria was now in a state of loss of consciousness. She had no reaction except for silent tears.
Seeing all this, Tony immediately felt a pain in his heart. But he was a man after all, and men must show enough strength in front of outsiders. So he just hugged Maria who had no reaction and said to Zhou Yi with a calm expression.
"Thank you for telling us all. I know you have tried your best in this matter, so please rest assured that I will not blame you for this matter. Also, here, I will say goodbye to you at the end. This may be our last meeting."
Zhou Yi cannot guess what kind of thought in Tony's heart now. But he knew that Tony's heart must be very complicated now, and what he expressed now was just forcing a smile.
As a person who is already a father, he can understand what kind of pain it would be like to lose a child. It can be said that it will make people despair and also make people crazy. If such a thing happens to him, he might do something terrible.
And the same thing happened to Tony, it would be the same result. Zhou Yi knew how much Tony expected this child. It was a symbol of his life and family continuing in this world. He could imagine how painful it would be when Tony knew that this child would not be born again.
If the pain is not vented, it will suffocate people to death. Judging from Tony's current meaning, he did not vent such pain at all. Instead, he used his own reason to hide this pain in the deepest part of his heart. This practice is very worrying, because when this painful emotion can no longer be suppressed, it will only burst out in a more fierce posture, thus destroying everything.
However, with Zhou Yi's current identity, he obviously was not qualified to warn him, so he could only sigh and say to Tony.
"Yes, it's the last time we meet. Since that's the case, Tony, let me give you the last journey. In addition, I hope you can think of some things, some of which will be smoothed out as time goes by."
As he said this, he pulled a crack in front of Tony, which seemed like a portal. Looking at the crack, he looked at Zhou Yi's sincere expression. A stiff smile appeared on Tony's face, and then he helped Maria walk towards the crack without looking back.
"Thank you for your kindness, Zhou Yi. But there are some things that may never be erased by time."
This was the last sentence he left to Tony, and when this sentence came, he had already entered the crack of the void.
Seeing the crack slowly closing, his back slowly disappeared. Zhou Yi shook his head and sighed deeply again.
Some things are foreseeable. Just like now, he has already foresawed the pain and torture that Tony will suffer in the future. This is something that has been decided from the beginning, and when he makes an important decision, all of this is destined.
Maria's experience and their loss of children are all just a beginning, not the end of everything. As long as he persists in the path he chooses, nothing will change.
Will he change his original intention? Will he change his persistence because of all this? With Zhou Yi's understanding of him, this is probably an absolutely impossible thing. He is not a person who is easy to surrender. Under such heavy blows, he will only become stronger and full of fighting spirit.
This is also what Zhou Yi admires most and what he admires most. Because he always sticks to the path of his own philosophy like a fighter. No matter how heavy the burden he bears or how many blows he receives, he always sticks to his heroic path in this way.
That’s right, hero! This is Zhou Yi’s perception of Tony. Compared to himself who gave up halfway, he has always regarded Tony as a symbol that better reflects this word.
Although Tony did a lot of things that he was sorry for, and although Tony had become cold-blooded, philanthropic, and useless measures in the eyes of many former friends, no one can deny that all he did was to protect his country.
It is not a small fight like ordinary superheroes, who only focus on the life and death of individuals. Instead, it truly carries the weight of an entire country and regards the interests represented by the collective that carries hundreds of millions of people as something that one must protect.
Almost no superhero can do this except him. Even Zhou Yi himself tried it and then ended it with repeated blows.
It is precisely because of trying that Zhou Yi knows how difficult this is. Because you will always face countless hopes, countless extravagant hopes, countless blessings and countless hatreds. That is not a place where idealists can live, it is a great thing that only the most realistic and cruel people can do.
He knew that he was not that kind of person, and he also knew that Tony was not that kind of person. From a certain perspective, Tony was actually the same as him, they were both idealistic people. Because if he was not such a person, he would not be stupid enough to want to be a hero. If he was not such a person, he would not sacrifice his life to do those stupid things again and again.
Most superheroes are the same guys. It’s just that some people wake up from their ideals early and learn what reality is. Just like him! And some people are, they can’t learn to bow to reality. Just like Tony!
It was because of his ideal that he had reached his current position, and he completely distorted himself because of his ideal, making him look like he is now.
This kind of destruction that burns oneself, no one can save him, and he is the only one who can save him. Will he wake up? When this question appeared in Zhou Yi's heart, he couldn't help but sigh because he had guessed the final answer.
Heroes never have a good ending. They will not die. They will only fall on their ideal path, be remembered like ridiculous stone tablets, and then deceive more people and embark on the same path.
Maybe just as Tony himself said, this will be their last meeting. Maybe they really won’t have a chance to see each other again in the future.
Zhou Yi's face, who was so moved, had a look of silence. Looking at his expression, Qin slowly walked over and leaned in his arms.
"What are you thinking?"
Her fingers gently stroked the eyebrows of this beloved man, and from his eyes, she could feel the sorrow that was lingering in his heart.
"I was thinking about my previous story with him, and what he said to me that afternoon. He said he wanted to save his city and his country. But I didn't expect that he would use this method. If I stopped him at the beginning, if I had given him more help from the beginning, maybe he wouldn't be like this."
Speaking of this, he smiled slightly and let go of this meaningless feeling.
"I'm fine, I just couldn't let him go for a while."
Shaking her head, Qin obviously did not agree with his statement. Because she had a very good understanding of Zhou Yi, she had already seen him very clearly. And now she was whispering in her heart.
