After curling his lips, Skye grinned an ugly smile with difficulty.It can be seen that she doesn't seem to agree with all that Zhou Yi said.

Naturally, this expression of hers could not be hidden from Zhou Yi's eyes, but regarding her performance, Zhou Yi smiled slightly and said.

"Actually, you should ask yourself this question, Skye. It is you who chose this city and you have confidence in this city. If not, who would choose such a place? Don't forget, Hui Yaoshi is not the only place that is willing to accept New Yorkers, and the terrible biohazard broke out here. Even now, it is one of the cities with the most mutants in the world."

"For most people, this city is not the best choice. If there is a ranking, I believe that the ranking of Huiyao City must be at the bottom. Among so many New Yorkers, only a few Some of them choose this place. And why these people choose this place, I think they must have a reason. Isn't it, Skye."

"Is there a reason, of course there is." Looking at Zhou Yi's gaze that was staring at him, it almost penetrated into the depths of his heart.Skye smiled strongly and continued to play his role. "Well, since you have said so. Then I can only tell you. But, sir. I hope you will not tell this matter, or I will not be responsible for any disasters that will result."

"Of course, please believe me, I'm a tight-lipped person. Even if I'm asleep, I won't say something that shouldn't be said."

Seeing that the girl named Skye still wanted to continue performing, Zhou Yi raised his cup and assured her so.

Seeing Zhou Yi making this appearance, Skye's eyebrows twitched, and he moved his chair and moved closer.

"Listen to me, sir. I got some unknown information. According to the information I got, the Dawn Knight, that is, the guy who is a superhero and a god, is staying in this city. It is also Because of him, I am willing to come to such a place and start a new life."

"Why?" Hearing her words, Zhou Yi laughed inexplicably.He stared at the girl who seemed to be a thief, and asked such a question. "Didn't that guy start shouting and beating everyone? Now people all over the world regard him as a devil. Why do you still want to find his footprints and come to this city? You are not afraid that he will be unhappy alone, Do you want to burn everyone including you?"

"Not afraid, of course I am not afraid!" Faced with this question, Skye answered firmly. "I always believed that he would not do such a thing. In fact, in my heart, he will always be that hero!"

Chapter 5: Are Heroes Desperate?

hero?Hearing such a title suddenly, Zhou Yi couldn't help laughing in his heart.Not because this little girl named Skye scratched the itch in his heart, but because it was too ridiculous to say such things in her capacity.

An agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. ran up to her and told herself that she believed in herself and that she was a hero.It doesn't matter whether her words came from the instruction of the people behind her, or from her own heart.They have all been completely divorced from the soil of reality.

If her words came from the people behind her, then Zhou Yi can only think that there must be a serious division within SHIELD.Otherwise, with the shrewdness of people like Nick Fury and Coulson, it would be absolutely impossible to make such a decision.

And if it came from her own intention, then I have to say that this little girl is really cute and silly.At least from Zhou Yi's point of view, her thinking is completely different from that of most people in this world.

This cannot be said to be a good thing, but it cannot be said to be a bad thing either.Of course, in the current situation.Zhou Yi still had a slight liking for this somewhat unusual little girl.

As a newcomer who just joined S.H.I.E.L.D., although Skye has not yet learned the ability to perceive words and emotions that an agent should have.But for her who has been struggling to survive on her own since she was a child, feeling the attitudes of people around her has become an instinctive reaction.So naturally, Zhou Yi's kindness towards her was also keenly captured by her.This made her a little excited, and she even couldn't help the excitement in her heart, and asked Zhou Yi eagerly.

"He's a hero, isn't he? Do you feel the same way?"

It was the first time for Zhou Yi to be asked if he was a hero.In this situation, he could of course keep silent about this girl, but looking at her eager eyes, he had an urge to say something himself.And what to say?For a while, Zhou Yi felt uncertain.

If it was before, he might still be able to confidently call himself a hero.But now, can I still have the confidence?Even Zhou Yi himself was not sure of this.So he hesitated.

But just when he was hesitating, Skye's eyes widened, his mouth was slightly opened, and he was watching the change of his expression.It seems that for her, every move and every decision of Zhou Yi is enough to affect her mind, and they all have a sufficient and inevitable relationship with her.

Not long after, the uncertainty on Zhou Yi's face fell silent.He looked at the little girl who was looking at him nervously, smiled slightly, and said to her.

"I can't say what you say is right, and I can't say that what you say is wrong. And from my point of view, his past is indeed a hero. But what he did in the future Whether it can still be called a hero, that is beyond my ability to judge."

Zhou Yi's answer made Skye's eyes look anxious and puzzled.She didn't seem to understand why Zhou Yi answered her like this.So she can only say self-righteously.

"Are you perfunctory? This kind of ambiguity is not convincing. Sir, I know that you may not be so at ease with a stranger like me, so you don't have the intention to confide in me. But I can tell you that every word I say is serious, and it is what I really think in my heart. If you don’t believe me, you can just find a mutant in this city who can spy on your heart, and let her See if everything I say matches my heart."

"Relax, relax!" Looking at Skye, who gradually became a little anxious and anxious with his words, Zhou Yi smiled slightly, and pressed her shoulder. "I don't mean to doubt you, nor do I mean to be perfunctory. In fact, I don't have any reason to perfuse a young man like you. Everything you hear is actually what I really think."

"It is true that in the past years, he has done a lot of things, even in order to protect others, he even fought with an almost dedicated spirit. At that time, when he believed that the world was worthy of his protection , he can indeed be called a hero. I think even he thinks so."

"However, people will change. And this change is mutual. When he finds that the world has repeatedly abandoned him and betrayed everything he has done over the years. Naturally, it is impossible for him to be the same as before, without changing. Continue to be a so-called hero with the original intention."

"Skye, you have to know. A hero is not a nice name. It means responsibility, sacrifice, and perseverance in a belief. And when one day, a hero finds out that he has sacrificed himself, and he bears the responsibility. When all his beliefs are betrayed and destroyed by the things he guards, he will definitely change accordingly."

"Some people may choose to continue walking on this road, and then go to the end, and eventually become a monument that can only be remembered. But some people will put down everything before them and choose to start a new journey. Obviously, Dawn Knight chose the latter. For him, the title of so-called hero has become a ridiculous burden, so it is time for him to drop everything."

"No, it's not fair! It shouldn't be like this." Listening to Zhou Yi's calm explanation with a little regret, Skye grabbed Zhou Yi's hand in fear and eagerness as if he had encountered some terrible sad thing. arm, and then said to him repeatedly with tears in the corners of his eyes. "This is just your own self-righteous idea from the beginning to the end. Didn't he think about how many people in this world have always believed in him unswervingly? How many people are expecting him to return to their By his side? Doesn't he know that when he makes this choice, he is actually betraying those people's trust and hope in him?"

"Skye, listen to me, child!" Patting the back of the hand of the girl who would shed tears because of him, Zhou Yi showed a trace of pity and helplessness on his face. "This world is not as simple as you know. Maybe for those ordinary people, they have never done betrayal. But if they haven't done it, it doesn't mean that others haven't done it. Those who speak out in this world Never ordinary people, but the government and the so-called people in power. And you have no say in what they do. This is a war that has nothing to do with you, and the outcome has already been decided, so, in fact, It's time to let go."

Shaking his head desperately, Skye grabbed Zhou Yi's arm with a pale face.She seemed to want to say something more, but at this moment, she really didn't know what she should say.

Being able to live alone for so many years, and then relying on his own ability to join the S.H.I.E.L.D., Skye can't be that kind of fool without a brain.Although she is simple, she is not stupid, especially after Zhou Yi said so openly, she became more aware of what was standing in front of her.

Wanting the Dawn Knight to return is not something that can be changed by her own will.Standing in front of her are the two immovable mountains of government forces and the will of the Dawn Knight himself, and it is almost impossible to cross them.

Skye is not a person who gives up lightly, and she is naturally not reconciled to this kind of thing.But there are some things that she can't change without reconciliation, at least, she is absolutely powerless right now.So she could only sit on the chair with a pale face and stupidly, like a puppet without a soul, staring at Zhou Yi himself with empty eyes.

Zhou Yi has seen this look before, on that reporter named Louise.At that time, the look in her eyes touched me a lot.But now, when he saw the same look in his eyes again, an inexplicable feeling came to his heart again.

Nothing to do with anger, nothing to do with sadness.It's just a little emotion and a little regret, and an unreal feeling like a lifetime away.

Hero, this name is too far away for him, so far that he himself has blurred the impression of it.If this girl named Skye hadn't told him about it, he might have almost forgotten that he once had such a name.

But like he said, that was just once.And the past can never mean the future.His heroic career has already come to an end, no matter how much he recalls, it is impossible to go back to the past.Zhou Yi is well aware of this.So seeing Skye's change, he could only sigh and pat her on the shoulder, and said to her.

"Skye. Just treat him as dead. Instead of mourning in vain for the past with his protection, you might as well start over and continue your life without him to protect. This is a piece of advice, maybe so, It would be a good thing for someone like you."

Slapping away Zhou Yi's hand on his shoulder, Skye came alive as if he had reinjected his soul.However, now she seemed to lose her sanity in grief and anger, and yelled loudly at Zhou Yi.

"Don't make excuses for your betrayal, Dawn Knight. Do you think you can leave yourself clean and go easy? Don't you think, don't you. I won't let you get it so easily , Absolutely not. I want everyone to know your true face, so that you will never be able to escape from this shackle. I will do what I say, have you heard it? Dawn Knight!"

Her voice was so hoarse that it was completely conceivable how many people would be attracted by her shout.And this is Skye's idea.

Just like what she said, she couldn't let Zhou Yi escape so easily anyway, so even if she revealed her true identity, she had to do it.From a certain point of view, in order to turn Zhou Yi around, she really gave up everything she had.

But does it really work?The reality gave her a cruel answer.

Chapter 5: The Mission of True and False Illusion Emerges

The bustling voices reached Skye's ears, and the surrounding noisy crowd seemed not to be affected by her shouting at all.They are still busy and enjoying their afternoon tea.For them, Skye acted as if he didn't exist at all, and they continued their ordinary lives as if they were in two completely different worlds.

This situation was naturally unbelievable to Skye, so when she discovered this, she immediately turned her attention back to Zhou Yi.But when she looked at Zhou Yi carefully, she found that the figure in front of her had gradually disappeared from her sight with the breeze.

It was as if he had never been there, as if she had been speaking to the air.Everything is so unreal, and the falseness makes people flustered and frightened.

This situation, of course, frightened Skye.Although she joined S.H.I.E.L.D. and became an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., she was still an ordinary girl in essence, and such weird things naturally exceeded her psychological tolerance.So she started shouting, heading in the direction where Zhou Yi disappeared.

"Where are you? Coward, come out, come out. You haven't given me an answer, how can you just run away like this?"

She shouted very hard, but it still had no effect.Just like before, the people around were still doing their own thing, and no one paid attention to her.

The situation is getting weirder and weirder, so weird that Skye can't understand and can't accept it.And just when she was panicked and started to be at a loss.A big hand suddenly pressed on her shoulder.

This sudden movement startled her, and of course made her look behind her irresistibly.This look immediately gave her an illusion of light and shadow flowing in her brain, and it wasn't until she saw the person behind her that this illusion gradually disappeared as the figure in front of her gradually became clear. disappeared without a trace.

This is an acquaintance, a reassuring acquaintance.Although the surroundings were still so scary and weird to Skye, the appearance of this acquaintance still made the big rock in her heart drop.

"Grant, is that you? Thank God, fortunately, you're here!"

No one can understand Skye's mood at this moment, not even this so-called acquaintance of hers.In fact, Grant was still very puzzled, because Skye's performance was so abnormal, it even made people feel like she was on drugs.

Of course, this must be an illusion.Because Grant Ward, as Skye's guide, knew very well that she would never have access to that kind of thing.And her healthy body is even less likely to have any similar diseases.So, the sticking point must lie elsewhere.In order to find out the answer, he increased his strength, pressed Skye firmly on the chair, and asked her.
