Chapter 559: Ordinary and Great
Chapter 559: Ordinary and Great
Lifting up part of her flowered top, revealing her small belly, Hanako pointed at her belly button, looked at Huoyan expectantly, and then asked.
“Does this belly button look nice?”
Huoyan looked at it carefully for a moment, poked it carefully with his finger, and then commented seriously:
"generally."
After hearing this comment, it was obvious from Hanako's face that she felt a little disappointed.
Although the contact time was relatively short, Huoyan had an indescribable affection for this woman named Huazi. Seeing the obvious disappointment on her face, he hurriedly comforted her:
"This can't be blamed on Sister Hanako. The blame should be on the doctors and nurses at the hospital where Hanako was born."
Hearing Huoyan's words of comfort, Hanako showed some hesitation, but she still spoke slowly:
"Well...actually I cut the flowers myself."
"what?"
……
After listening to Hanako's story, Huoyan also understood some of the ins and outs, and couldn't help but say with some indignation:
"That man is such a piece of shit, he actually abandoned Sister Hanako and left you to take on the responsibility of raising the child alone.
You've suffered a lot, Hanako-san. It's hard to imagine that you gave birth alone...
Damn you! Scum! Scoundrel!
No, I really can't swallow this. Sister Hanako, please tell me the specific area where this man went. When the Hoenn region is revived again, I will definitely take the time to help you find him, and then you must teach him a good lesson.
And sister Hanako, you can believe that under the leadership of the leader, the revival of the Hoenn region will not take long, and you and Hanako can live a stable and happy life there.
But after this, we must make that damn man pay the price!"
Looking at Huoyan, who was filled with righteous indignation, and the lightning symbol on Huoyan's robe, Hanako seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but laugh.
Huoyan felt very strange when seeing Hanako covering her mouth and laughing.
"Why are you laughing? Sister Hanako, do you think that I, as a cook, can't do it? Or do you think I'm bragging?"
Seeing Huoyan's serious look, Hanako immediately stopped laughing, but she still had a smile on her face.
This makes Huoyan very crazy, thinking that Hanako just thinks he is joking and does not acknowledge his ability.
So, Huoyan looked around carefully and confirmed that there was not much movement of people here, so he carefully leaned close to Hanako's ear and whispered softly:
"Sister Hanako, let me tell you a secret. I am actually a cadre of the Lightning Team. I just did some illegal things during this war and was demoted to a cook. I believe I will be reinstated soon.
Of course, it's not because I have any connections or backers. We are merciless within the Lightning Team. Everything must follow the rules set by the leader and the rules established by the organization. We uphold the fundamental idea of serving the people and put the people at the center of everything."
After listening to Huoyan's story, Hanako smiled slightly and murmured to herself:
"It's great that he didn't go down the wrong path."
"Hmm? What did you say, Hanako-sister? What evil path?"
As if realizing that she had let the cat out of the bag, Hanako quickly shook her head.
"Nothing, just keep talking, of course, if I can listen."
Looking at Hanako who was still facing him with a motherly smile, Huoyan did not take what Hanako said to heart and continued to speak:
“I think I was reinstated because I was capable, but there was another reason.
If my guess is correct, there will inevitably be another war when the Hoenn region rises.
I, and we, must take revenge on the Alliance! To pay tribute to the heroes who died in this war!"
As he spoke, the expression on Huoyan's face gradually became like a demon crawling out of hell, hideous and terrifying.
This frightened Hua Rao, and she hid in her mother's arms, turning the back of her head towards Huoyan.
Stroking the back of Hua Rao's head, a look of worry appeared on Huazi's usually kind face.
……
Looking at the shriveled umbilical cord in his hand, a hint of emotion appeared in Shota's calm eyes.
"I'll go find them."
Seeing Shota getting up and about to leave, Ma Zhishi couldn't help but call him.
"Do you think they want to see you? Or do you really want to see them?"
After a pause, under the gazes of Gardevoir, Nancy and Mashiro, Shota continued to move slowly.
"I don't know, but at least I have to bring them into my rationality before my rationality overcomes my sensibility.
At least that’s what I think now.”
"then you go."
Ma Zhishi said firmly.
As they watched Shota's back gradually disappear into the darkness, the three people had different expressions on their faces.
But deep down there is a feeling, and that is relief.
Looking at Huoyan's ferocious and terrifying expression, Hanako pursed her lips and slowly said:
"There is no need to start another war..."
After hearing what Hanako said, Huoyan looked into her eyes and became increasingly crazy.
"Do you know why ordinary people can live until death? It's because they are born ordinary! They have ordinary looks, ordinary appearances, and even ordinary thoughts. They are not ashamed of a life without any achievements! They just look forward to one day at a time!
Success and fame, no, even this point is difficult for them to understand!
My comrade died on the battlefield. He died gloriously, honorably, and with great achievements. None of you can discredit his achievements!
He is nobler and more glorious than any of you! He is different from any of you, he is special!
But…"
When Huoyan said this, his eyes were already filled with tears.
"But why can't he come back..."
"If it's not special, then it's not okay. Why do I have to achieve something?"
Hanako spoke to Huoyan with a bright smile on her face.
Huoyan's face was obviously shocked.
Hanako picked up Hanako, slowly stood up, and rubbed her cheek with her face, like a breeze blowing over the hills.
"I don't think so, at least this kid... doesn't need to be great.
Even if I’m not better than others…even if my belly button isn’t as pretty as others…it’s no big deal.
Because you see, although this child is that person's child, she is so cute when she smiles, just like other children smile.
They are the next stage in humanity's journey towards a bright future.
Therefore, it is already great that she was born into this world.
The world is theirs, as well as ours.
Your companions, at this stage of our lives, are equally ordinary and equally great, both ordinary and great.
Similarly, even if you have not sacrificed heroically for everyone, it is not a sin.
You who survived are just as ordinary and just as great. Don't deny yourself, Miss Huoyan."
