Chapter 68 Pride

"Gudong..."

Hearing this news, William and Robert, two young men who had never seen the world, couldn't help swallowing and looked at each other.

"Then... the purpose of your call to us is..." Robert asked carefully.

He said, but at this moment he secretly clenched his fist behind him, and sweat began to seep out of his heart due to excitement.

"We hope... William can follow the team that went to search for Fei Telie and others, and go together."

"Hiss" the two of them opened their eyes wide and took a breath.

Just as William was stunned by Max's words, Robert next to him suddenly raised his hand.

"That...sir, where are me?"

Everyone looked at him together.

He stammered and explained, "That, sir, just now... you mean Mr. William...what do I? I mean, Mr. William must always take care of him, right?"

"Ahem..." Max coughed twice, lowered his hat, and looked at Robert helplessly under his eyes.

"Actually... we plan to let William go alone in this matter... and this time we call you here together, so that if William agrees, then your job transfer will be transferred in the future."

Max spread his hands to Robert.

"The dangers of this mission...you know, kid, you are too young and have some lack of experience and strength."

Max spoke softly, as if he was talking to a junior of his own, and his attitude made the others standing in the office look slightly sideways.

After all, even Rex, who had been following Max for the longest time, had never seen Max talk to others in this tone.

In my own impression, this chief seems to always be the one and a lonely and arrogant image.

Although Robert was a little disappointed after hearing Max's words, he still knew that he was indeed not strong enough. After all, a plumber who had just turned from an internship and went to an interstellar mission immediately was definitely joking about his life.

"That, sir" Robert waved and smiled at Max.

"I think I can put aside the work transfer matters first. I think even if I am Mr. William's assistant, I can still learn a lot."

Upon hearing what he said, Max nodded and looked at William again.

"William" he paused his tone

"Although I hope you can follow you, the risks are something I cannot guarantee. This matter requires you to think carefully... After all, it does not fit what I promised your uncle at the beginning, so even if you refuse, there will be no problem. Do you understand?"

"..." William next to him looked around, and everyone's eyes were on him at this moment. However, the feeling in his eyes was different.

In Max's eyes, William saw the entanglement and the deepest expectation.

In Rex's eyes, there was peace and trust, but his trust did not come from William, but from his trust in Max.

Lu Bo's expression became a little more serious, but the smile he had brought when he was talking to him still did not disappear.

As for the red dwarf that William had never seen before, his eyes were in addition to his trust in Max, and there was a little suspicion.

Finally, William looked at Robert, and Robert nodded heavily, hammered his chest with his hand, and smiled.

After a full circle, William thought for about half a minute. He raised his head and, right in front of Max's seat, a flag with the medal of the Sky Union was quietly hanging there.

He finally nodded, "I'll go."

…………………………………

"Absolutely not possible!!"

In William's room, Tian Mark's huge voice came out of the phone, which made William shrank back and moved the phone away from his ear.

"That bastard Max!" Tian Mark was so angry that he was rarely angry. He said silly as he recited Max's name.

"He never said such a thing when he promised me!!!"

"Uncle Mark..." William carefully tried to comfort Tian Mark, while explaining weakly, "Max asked me for my opinion, it was my voluntary choice."

"Volunteer!?Don't he know that you are only ten years old?" Tian Mark continued to shout angrily.

"He asked a ten-year-old to make a ridiculous choice, and after the choice was finished, he asked him to contact his guardian again!?"

"Actually, I was going to contact you..." William's voice became much weaker again, and he muttered in a low voice.

"But I think I should explain this to you in person."

Although he was passing through the phone, William said here, but he still subconsciously sat upright, as if he was sitting in front of him like Tian Mark.

"Stop talking!" Tian Mark's voice became irritated on the other end of the phone. "I'll go now and go to Florida to pick you up. I shouldn't have believed that bastard's nonsense at that time!"

After saying that, just as Tian Mark was about to hang up the phone, William suddenly said on the other end of the phone, "Uncle... You said that my father will be proud of me..."

For a moment, Tian Mark, who was originally furious, suddenly stood there in a daze, and his original anger was inexplicably extinguished.

He was silent for a long time, and William could only confirm that he had not left based on his faint breathing at this moment.

"Of course Jack will be proud of you...but not like that. Do you understand the kid?"

"……But sooner or later there will be such a day, right?" William said softly on the other side of the phone.

"All I have always thought about is not to be disturbed by my normal life. I hope to spend my whole life in a normal way. Even when I came here, I still thought this way."

"But in that mission, the lives of dozens of people made me realize one thing... Maybe I can do more than that."

"…..." Tian Mark didn't say anything on the other end of the phone. William knew that he was hesitating. William could even see the old man sitting in his seat, hunching his upper body, and his brows were tightening. What he wanted to do now was just add the last fire.

He opened his mouth and said slowly.

“esgreatresponsibility…”

After saying that, both sides fell into silence at the same time. In the end, Tian Mark took the lead in unraveling the silence.

"You are very similar to Jack... No, it should be said to be exactly the same... William, I don't know what I should say now, but kid, I'm proud of you."

He took a deep breath, as if he had suddenly removed some weight, fell backwards and leaned against the back of the chair.
