The Throne of Heroes

Chapter 6 The future daughter-in-law

Steve went to join the army, Adam also lived a life of a person, um, no, there are hundreds of looks.

Baimao has kept a doppelganger to accompany Adam as a spirit son.

One is to protect Adam's safety, even though he doesn't need such protection at all.

The second is to report the whereabouts and current situation of those under surveillance and protection at any time.

"My lord, Peggy Carter is on her way to visit and is expected to arrive in 5 minutes." Baimao reported.

"Okay, I see." Adam nodded, and then continued to read the newspaper boredly, waiting for the arrival of this "English rose".

Under Baimao's surveillance, he knew that Peggy Carter had been investigating him since Steve joined the "Scientific Strategic Force", and he had already guessed that there would be a day when he would come.

Adam still admires this future daughter-in-law very much. She is beautiful, heroic, and capable. Adam has been lamenting that it is a blessing that Steve, a bastard, can catch up with such a wife in his lifetime.

And considering that the other party is the future daughter-in-law, Adam treated her like Steve and Bucky, and did not use hint magic to make her ignore her appearance.

For a woman with her character, there are some things, rather than hiding them, it is better to explain them as soon as possible.

Even if Peggy Carter has doubts about Steve due to her own reasons, Adam believes that Steve can still conquer this "English rose" by relying on his charisma.

Five minutes later, no more, no less, there was a knock on the door.

"coming."

Adam got up and opened the door, looked at Peggy Carter in military uniform outside, and asked with pretended doubts, "Who are you looking for?"

"Mr. Adam Kronos?" Peggy Carter asked.

"Yes you are?"

"Hi, I'm Peggy Carter, the boss of your son Steve Kronos, I have something to talk to you about your son." Peggy Carter introduced herself.

"Steve? What's wrong with him?" Adam asked pretending to be anxious.

"Can I come in and talk?" Peggy Carter also pretended to be a little nervous and asked.

"Okay, please come in, Miss Carter." Ye Adam stepped aside.

"Just call me Carter." Peggy Carter walked in.

Adam closed the door and asked, "What do you want to drink? I have coffee and black tea here."

"Black tea, thank you." Peggy Carter said on the sofa.

"please wait for a while."

After a while, Adam put black tea in front of Peggy.

"What's wrong with my son? Is he hurt?" Adam asked.

"Mr. Kronos, this may depend on your answer." Peggy said bluntly.

"I don't understand what you mean." Adam said flatly, leaning against the sofa with his hands together.

"You are really a miraculous existence, Mr. Kronos, no, it should be said... weird... yes, although it is not a good word, but I can't find a more suitable adjective." Peggy said, At the same time, he has been observing Adam.

"Is it because of... my looks?" Adam asked.

"Yes, I asked Steve, he was adopted by you when he was five years old, and you... have never changed in appearance since then, can you tell me why?" Peggy said directly asked.

She has noticed this matter for a long time. She is a secret agent, and she is responsible for the background, investigation and review of all the members of the "Strategic Science Force".

After getting Steve's information, she discovered a very serious problem, that is, it has been 20 years, Steve's father, this man named Adam Kronos, the years have not flowed on his face The next trace.

What's even more strange is that they have been living in Brooklyn for the past 20 years, and they haven't even changed their neighbors. Why hasn't anyone discovered this?
What made her even more horrified was that when she reported the incident to Colonel Philip, the head of the "Strategic Science Force", the other party acted as if he hadn't heard it and didn't touch the topic at all.

Later, Paige tested Steve, and Steve's answers almost made her want to punch someone.

Can dietary conditioning keep the appearance unchanged?To hell!If this is the case, please give me a dozen of such meal preparations.

Later, Peggy sent trusted men to secretly investigate Adam, but found no feedback, just like Colonel Philip.

Peggy felt that this matter was not simple. Since she was the only one who could notice this matter, she needed to come to the door in person.

Of course, she didn't just come to investigate without thinking like this.

During the investigation, she found that Adam loves his adopted son Steve very much, and now that Steve is in her hands, she has confidence. It is not clear if she can gain anything, but at least she can guarantee her own safety.

"Hehe, Carter, I wonder if you've heard a saying?" Adam poured himself a cup of black tea, and took a sip very plainly.

"What slang?"

"Women, you can empty out a man's body, you can also empty out a man's wallet, but don't empty out a man's secret."

"why?"

"Because it's dangerous."

As soon as the words fell, Carter's pupils shrank, and it was like drawing a gun immediately. The long life of an agent made her develop an instinctive premonition of danger.

But unfortunately, just when her hand was about to touch the gun at her waist, she found nothing and found that the gun disappeared out of thin air.

Looking up again, he saw his own gun placed next to Adam's teacup.

"Who the hell are you? A spy from the Third Reich? How did you do it just now? High technology? Or... superpowers?"

Carter and others were a little anxious. Of course, she knew that the world was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. There were people with superpowers. She met a person with superpowers once on a secret mission.

If Adam was really a superpower, she might not be able to leave this room today, but she still forcibly calmed down because she still had a hole card in her hand.

"If you want to use Steve to threaten me, I advise you to give up the idea." Adam smiled directly, expressing her inner thoughts.

"You! Hehe, sure enough, the lackeys of the Third Reich are a group of cold-blooded and ruthless executioners. Steve is just your cover, right? An abandoned son who can be thrown away at will..." Peggy felt that she was in danger, but This does not prevent her from swearing a few more words before she dies.

But unfortunately, all of this is her imagination.

"I think you misunderstood, Carter, I never thought of abandoning Steve, Steve is my son, although he is an adopted son, but I still love him very much.

The reason why I let you dismiss this idea is because I am not worried that you will hurt him at all, and you can't hurt him. ’ Adam explained.

"You... don't you have your accomplices besides Steve?" Peggy's pupils shrank.

"Hey, why do you have such a rich imagination?" Adam shook his head with a wry smile.

"Is not it?"

"Hundred appearances."

"My lord."

Under Adam's call, the Baimao beside Adam released the spiritualization and appeared in front of Peggy.

"This! This is! There is a person with superpowers! He has the ability to be invisible!" Peggy stared at everything in front of her with wide eyes.

"You have them too."

As Adam's voice fell, a person wearing a black robe and a white skull mask appeared beside Peggy.

"This is! Impossible! Two superpowers with invisibility ability, can this be mass-produced? In this way...Steve's side..."

"Of course there are, not only Steve, but also Abraham, but you can't find it." Adam drank black tea again and said flatly.

"Dr. Abraham is also there! Ha...hehe...It turns out that we are the idiots, and the secret that we desperately want to protect has always been under the nose of the enemy..." At this moment, Peggy was a little desperate.

"Carter, did you misunderstand something?" Adam looked at Peggy with some amusement and asked.

"what?"

"You think I'm a spy for the Third Reich?" Adam asked.

"Oh, isn't it?" Peggy asked with disdain.

"Hehe, you're a smart little girl, Carter. Have you forgotten how to think calmly after being hit?" Adam laughed.

At this time, Peggy's body shook, "Yeah, how could I lose my size, I want to calm down, calm down, wait, why did he say that?"

"If you were a spy of the Third Reich, what would you do if you got what you wanted?" Adam asked.

Peggy was taken aback for a moment, and finally understood what Adam meant, and also discovered the incongruity in the whole thing.

If she is a spy of the Third Reich, the target must be the "Super Soldier Serum" and the formula in Abraham's hands.

Since the other party has stealth superpowers who can fool their own detection methods, and there are more than one person, why do they need to send Steve to infiltrate the "Scientific Strategic Force"?
It is absolutely possible to get the serum and formula directly, and in order to prevent the Allies from possessing the serum again, they could directly kill Abraham and destroy all the materials, but the other party did not do this.

"So...you...are you really not a spy of the Third Reich?" After asking, Peggy felt a little silly.

"Of course not," Adam replied, pushing back the gun in front of Paige.

Peggy looked at the gun that slid in front of her eyes, hesitated.

"Is this a test? Wait until I shoot him to death? Then there is a reason to kill me? Then use self-defense as a reason to shirk responsibility?"

"I said, Carter, can you stop being so big on your brain? The first thing I will give you back is to prove to you that I have no malice towards you, and second, this thing is not a threat to me." Adam felt what Peggy was thinking. Said very speechlessly.

Damn secret agent, women should not be allowed to participate in this profession, what a good little girl, who is made suspicious by this profession, what about the trust between people?

Peggy was stunned when she heard the words, the corner of her mouth twitched, she took back the gun and put it on her waist again.

"So, can you tell me who you are?" Paige asked.

"Now is not the time, you will know later." Adam replied.

"When is the time?"

"You will know when the time comes." Adam replied, and silently added in his heart: "When you become my daughter-in-law."

"Well, what the hell." Peggy cursed, she had never been so aggrieved before, she was completely powerless to fight back, and she was led away by others from the beginning to the end, and there was no useful news at the end Got it, no, it's still a little rewarding, at least this weird man is not his enemy right now.

"Then them?" Peggy pointed at Baimao.

"They will continue to follow you, don't worry, the one who follows you is a woman, and they will protect you at critical times," Adam said.

"Damn it, I hate this, is there no room for negotiation?"

"of course not."

"Ok."

Peggy resigned to her fate, and now she didn't dare to mess around at all. She thought about finding Howard secretly and asking him to help develop a device that could detect this group of "ghosts". After all, he is also a genius.

But... she doesn't have any chance at all, okay?Every move is under the opponent's nose.

"By the way, Carter, please don't tell Steve about Baimao. I don't want him to know at the moment." Adam said when Peggy was about to leave.

"...I will." Peggy was silent for a while, and agreed.
