Chapter 531: Who Made Schiller Want to Kill? (Part 1)

The moment he saw that badge, Stark looked up at Shi Difen. Although this sign was already obvious enough, he still had to seek an answer from the veteran who had experienced World War II.

Shi Difen took the medal from his hand, his eyes filled with shock and nostalgia. He rubbed the surface of the medal with his fingers and then said, "Soviet Order of the Red Banner..."

Now, the expression on Shi Difen's face could be called complicated. He read out the Russian on the red flag part of the Red Banner Medal: "Workers of the world, unite."

Stark showed a surprised expression. He didn't expect Shi Difen to know Russian, but later, he remembered the things he had seen in Shi Difen's conscious world. He remembered that there was no lack of traces left by the Soviets among them.

Seeing Shi Difen's expression again, Stark felt a bit familiar. Suddenly, he remembered that when Obadiah had just woken up and replaced him to negotiate with the military, and talked about the story of Howard and Andong, his face also had such an expression.

Not only Obadiah, but even the old general opposite, his expression was also very similar.

But what made Stark, who was born in the post-Cold War era, feel a bit confused was that as the older generation who were opponents of the Soviet Union, when mentioning this country, they were not completely disgusted and repelled.

Even, the nostalgia on their faces was much more than all other emotions combined.

Perhaps, like Shi Difen, they were nostalgic for that special era, because there was the cause they had fought for and the proof that it had existed.

Stark, born in the 1970s, was still a teenager during the Cold War. It was difficult for him to understand this emotion. He wanted to make a joke to ease this heavy atmosphere, but before that, Shi Difen had freed himself from that state. He said:

"I didn't expect to see this now..." He pursed his lips, his expression appearing somewhat serious. He asked, "Why does Schiller have this medal?"

Stark took the medal back again. He examined the patterns and designs on it and asked somewhat puzzled, "What does this medal represent? Who will it be awarded to?"

"This is one of the earliest medals established by the Soviet Union. It will be awarded to people who have made significant contributions to the national cause. Generally speaking, the early Red Banner Medal is relatively weighty."

Stark looked down at the medal, which was somewhat seriously worn. Shi Difen affirmed his guess. He said, "Judging from the casting process and the details of the pattern, this should be the early Red Banner Medal, but I don't know which year it was awarded specifically."

The two looked at the medal back and forth several times, but couldn't find any useful details. Thus, Stark handed the medal to Shi Difen and said, "You'd better keep it. In case it's discovered, just say it was left to you by your old comrade-in-arms."

"You..." Shi Difen paused, but Stark seemed to know what he wanted to ask. He paused and said, "That era will not return. Liberate all mankind? A very great dream, but..."

Stark shook his head. Shi Difen didn't know which aspect he was denying.

But obviously, Stark was not denying it from the perspective of a capitalist, or rather, the current Iron Man had already transcended the capitalist class, infinitely close to the final producer, almost possessing unlimited productivity. If he didn't think he had a responsibility to human civilization, then resources, life forms, and perspectives could no longer trap him.

Past things always make people feel entangled, because many regrets can never be made up. When Shi Difen was staring at the medal in a daze, Stark had already reached out and opened the old-fashioned folder.

This folder looked like it had been around for a long time. The outer shell was made of thin wood, and the iron clip inside was also somewhat rusty, and the paper went without saying. In many places, the ink stains blurred and blocked other letters, and some ink even got onto the shell.

Just seeing the first page, Stark was stunned, because it was densely packed with names, and they were not the names of celebrities. Stark scanned it roughly and found that he didn't know any of them.

The nationality and position were marked below the names, but somewhat strangely, the nationality column wrote two countries, some were UK, Soviet Union, some were USA, Soviet Union, and some were combinations of messy small countries. ===== CHAPTER 532 =====
