Chapter 500: The Collapse of Faith The Final Choice
"Wait, you can't go without making the words clear!"
Seeing that Zhou Yi was about to leave like this, Jill immediately made an impulsive and extreme move. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć She picked up the revolver that was placed on the table and aimed it directly at the back of Zhou Yi, who wanted to leave.
"Jill, you should know. This kind of thing is useless to me. ā
Jill's movements made Zhou Yi stop, but it was not because of the weapon she was holding in her hand, but because of her identity and words.
"I know it's not going to work for you, the former superhero of the Dawn Knight." In the words of the past, Jill deliberately strengthened his tone. This made her words immediately harsh in Zhou Yi. "But it's my choice, Zhou Yi. If you dare to walk out of this door, I can only assume that you are a terrorist being. Then I will perform my duties as a police officer against you and arrest you! ā
"Arrest me?" Looking at Jill's stubborn and blunt expression, Zhou Yi also showed a sneer on his face. "Under what name are you going to arrest me? Officer Jill! ā
"With all that you've done in the Supreme Court, I have good reason to arrest you. Knight of the Dawn, you have trampled on the laws of this country, killed innocent civilians, you are already a criminal, don't you know it yourself? ā
"I didn't kill anyone! Never have I ever killed an innocent guy! ā
Jill's questioning made Zhou Yi's heart uncomfortable. But instead of having a seizure, he turned his head and explained very seriously to her. Although he no longer cares what others think of him, he does care about the eyes of his friends. So he told the truth, but believe it or not, it's not up to him to decide.
Thankfully, Jill seemed to believe him. Because as soon as he said this, she put down the revolver in her hand and removed the muzzle of the gun from him.
"In that case, why don't you tell the story? As long as you are willing to speak out about it, there will definitely be people who are willing to believe in you and support you. You don't have to be what you are! ā
"What does this look like now?" Interrupting what Jill wanted to continue, Zhou Yi directly shook his head and vetoed her idea. "I know what you mean, you think it's a bad thing for me to be called a devil and an evil god now. But actually, I don't think so. ā
"What the hell are you talking about?" Jill listened to Zhou Yi's words, and a very obvious look of surprise appeared on his face. "Don't you think so? Don't you know what you have to lose? Your reputation, your glory. Isn't it a bad thing that all the things you've worked so hard to build have turned to dust because of this incident? ā
"Of course not! Because what you consider to be a loss is only meaningful if I still need humans. If I completely cut off all past ties with humans, what they think of me and what they say about me will be worthless to me. Then your so-called loss, naturally, does not exist. ā
"You're crazy!"
Listening to Zhou Yi's words, Jil's face began to change color in an instant. The crimson color began to fade rapidly from her face, leaving her delicate face with an unsightly pale.
Zhou Yi's answer was obviously unacceptable to her. In her eyes, the man who once fought alongside her was a hero, a true warrior who could fight for the safety of innocent people. However, now, when he said that, she had a feeling that the image of the great shore in her heart had collapsed.
There's nothing sadder than watching your inner hero degenerate into a person you don't know and fear, and even Jill, who has developed a strong mind in Resident Evil, can't help but lash out with displeasure and anger.
"Isn't it bad to be a hero? Don't you know how many people will be disappointed in you by doing this? You are worthy of our expectations of you, and of the trust we have placed in you. Zhou Yi, you are a coward! ā
"Coward?" This word made Zhou Yi feel uncontrollable emotions in his heart, and he walked in front of Jill in two steps, looking at her with eyes that were sharper than any sword. "What right do you have to call me a coward, Jill. Valentine. What are you doing and what are you doing to me when I'm fighting for this world, for all of humanity? It's ridiculous, am I only allowed to betray me, but I don't even have the qualifications to give up humanity? ā
"Humans have never betrayed you, it's just that you yourself are self-righteous and think that humans have betrayed you!"
Facing Zhou Yi's sharper and more sword-like eyes, Jill not only did not flinch, but fought back with quite bold eyes. She has never been a person who is willing to give in to power, she was like this when she faced Ambrera in the past, and she is also like this when she faces Zhou Yi now.
And when Zhou Yi realized this, his sharp eyes gradually eased. That doesn't mean he's convinced, though. To the extent of stubbornness, the two of them are completely equal.
"Jill, you don't understand what's going on? So you are not in any position to judge what I have done. All I can tell you is that I have never done anything that owes humanity. I'm not sorry for them, it's they who are sorry for me. ā
"Excuses!"
Jill's anger was comparable to her tone, and when she heard Zhou Yi say such things again, she immediately threw away all her scruples, strode up directly, and stretched out her hand to grab Zhou Yi's collar.
"What humans have done to you, you tell me, say. We didn't do anything, we always believed in you and pinned our hopes on you. But you, what did you do? You have destroyed everything, you have smashed all the faith in our hearts. You bastard, you're not a victim, we are. You've disappointed me completely, Zhou Yi. You have made everything in my heart clean and destroyed. ā
As she said this, she suddenly burst into clear tears, which slowly rolled down her cheeks, making her look like a woman who had been heartbroken.
And her performance made Zhou Yite's heart soften suddenly. He has never been a hard-hearted man like steel, and in the face of a woman who will shed tears for himself, no matter how much anger he has, it will only slowly be extinguished.
So he ignored Jill's hand holding his collar and reached out directly, gently wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingers. Then he slowed his tone and spoke softly to her.
"Jill, you don't know what's going on with me. I've lost a lot of things in the name of this hero. And what I have left now is more important than my life. I can't afford to lose them again, so please forgive me. Just assume that your hero is dead, and now I'm just a person living for them. Hero, the name is too heavy for me. I can't carry it anymore. So, I'm sorry, I can only let you continue to be disappointed! ā
When he finished saying this, an invisible force suddenly took control of Jil's body, directly separating her from the action of pulling Zhou Yi. Then, as if a pair of invisible hands were lifting her, they held her in mid-air and put her directly on the sofa.
This kind of situation is naturally what Jill doesn't want to see, her words haven't been finished with Zhou Yi, she still doesn't understand what Zhou Yi means by saying this, and she hasn't even made Zhou Yi change his mind. So she began to rebel, against this mysterious power that controlled her.
But no matter how much she resisted, she couldn't get rid of the control of this power. She could only be forced to sit down on the sofa, and then watched Zhou Yi turn around again and walk towards the door.
"Stop, Zhou Yi. You can't go, and if you do, I'll never be able to forgive you. Do you understand? ā
Jill, who couldn't stop Zhou Yi with his actions, could only choose to stop him with words on his lips. However, this is clearly meaningless. Because Zhou Yi's answer didn't change at all.
"I'm sorry, Jill. If this is your choice, then I can only say that I respect your choice. Sorry, we may not be all the way. ā
Zhou Yi's answer made Jill's face turn pale. No one could understand her mood right now, not even herself, who was really thinking in her heart at this moment. She only knew that she was very tormented inside. That kind of sadness and pain made her whole person lose the idea of persevering.
And when she saw that Zhou Yi had gradually walked away, his figure had even begun to disappear under the porch light. The negative emotions in her heart had already begun to give rise to a very dangerous and extreme thought.
At this time, Zhou Yi's control over her had also disappeared with his departure. Jill had regained her freedom, and when she gained her precious freedom, the first thing she did was to reach out to the revolver that had a special meaning and that she always carried with her as a remembrance.
The familiar touch from the revolver reminded her of memories that were very special to her. In the past, this memory may make him smile and sprout inexplicable joy. But now, this memory only stimulates her grief even more, and makes her reaffirm her resolve.
Now that faith has collapsed, what's the point of living in this world?
A sad smile hung on Jill's face, and at this moment, she had no memory of this world. Therefore, she did not hesitate, reversed the body of the revolver, and pressed the cold muzzle tightly to her chest.
The next moment, gunshots rang out, and blood instantly stained everything red. (To be continued.) )
