Marvel's Last Angel

Chapter 29 Steve Rogers
Xi has followed Agent Carter around since Erskine started working.Or to the barracks, or to the streets, or to Erskine's laboratory.Going around and going around gradually became familiar.The people in the vicinity also became accustomed to this mysterious little girl in black robe from being strange.Sometimes they even say hello, although they basically don't get an answer.But everyone is still curious about what it looks like under the black robe! What's more, they are still betting in the corner, if one day the black robe is taken off, will it be beautiful or ugly?Of course, these very unlucky people were caught by Agent Carter and locked up in the small black room.

Peggy Carter had promised Dr. Erskine to take care of her, so it was a pity that she was taken care of by Carter.From eating to living.It can be said that besides Erskine, she is the only one who has seen Xi's face under the black robe.

Seeing Xi's appearance at that time, Carter was stunned.She herself is beautiful, but she feels ashamed in front of Xi.No wonder he always wears a black robe.Since then, Xi has lived a life like a doll.

The weather was fine that day. After visiting Erskine in the laboratory, Xi went to the street alone, looking at the tickets given by Howard while strolling.Speaking of the ticket, Howard forced it, and repeatedly asked to participate.Xi reluctantly took it.

"Boom..."

Xi stopped in doubt, and she heard a strange crashing sound.If it was correct, it was the sound of fists hitting flesh.The sound came from the alley not far ahead.Xi was puzzled and approached slowly with light steps.I saw a thin and short man being hit to the ground by a young man, but what was strange was that the thin and small man got up again and again, and he just didn't give in.The young man was knocked to the ground several times in a row, but he stubbornly got up and tried to fight back.It's a pity that I admire his perseverance.

Rogers was knocked down to the ground again, and his body was a little paralyzed with pain.He tried to get up.At this time, I heard a suspicious voice coming from the alley.

"What are you doing?" Xi asked pretending to be puzzled, and at the same time attracted the attention of the other party.

The tall and strong white man knocked Steve down again, and turned to look at the alley.See Xi hidden in the black robe.The mysterious man gave himself a sense of danger.

"It's best not to meddle in my business, I'm teaching this weak little man a lesson. You'd better not meddle, or even you..." The tall man threatened, but he stopped in the middle of speaking.He felt that if he continued speaking, his life would be in danger.

"Get out..." Xi's cold voice came calmly.

As if he had received an amnesty, the man scrambled and left quickly.

Xi didn't look at him, but looked curiously at the thin man struggling to get up on the ground. "Why don't you admit defeat? That way you won't be beaten badly, right!" Xi asked strangely.At the same time, he reached out and gave Rogers a hand.

Rogers stood up following Xi's strength and said, "No, I will stay with you to the end!"

"You are such a strange person, my name is Xi, how about you?"

"Rodgers, Steve Rogers, thank you for your help."

"Hey, Steve, you're here! You've been beaten again? Do you need me to help you get back on track?" There was a joking voice in the distance, but it was full of concern.

"Uh, no, no need, someone has already taught him a lesson for me! Thanks, Bucky." Steve thanked his friend Bucky Barnes who came to his side.This kind of thing should happen often, and Bucky is used to it.

"This is Bucky Barnes, my good friend..."

"Xi, are you okay?" Steve found that Xi didn't seem to respond and asked.

"Uh, I'm fine... Well, hello Barnes." Xie recovered and replied casually.She felt that the name Steve Rogers was very familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere.But just can't remember.

"This is Xi, she helped me just now." Seeing that Xi was fine, Steve introduced to Bucky.

"Pity? Weird name." Bucky was a little different. "Hello, thank you for saving this stubborn man." Although it was strange, the other party saved his friend after all.

"Are you enlisted?" Steve noticed the uniform Bucky was wearing.

"107th Regiment, Sergeant James Barnes. Set off for England early tomorrow morning." Bucky's tone was calm, he didn't want to hit Rogers.

"I should go too." Rogers said disappointedly.

"Okay buddy, it's the last night, you have to dress yourself up?" Bucky put his arm around Rogers' shoulder and changed the subject.

"Where are you going?
"In the future...do you want to be together? Pity"

"Of course." Xi was originally going to the expo.It's okay to go with them. "And I can have more contact with that Rogers, maybe I can get some memories back."It's a pity to think so.

Expo scene

Xi followed behind Steve and Bucky, looking at Howard who was blushing on the stage.He is presenting his latest invention.

"Boom"

"So it will be a few years later." Everyone was startled by the car that suddenly fell.Howard didn't expect this to happen, he said awkwardly

"Is that why you want to join the army?" Xi asked Steve who was standing in front of the poster.

"Yes, that's my dream," Steve replied awkwardly, not expecting someone behind him
"However, it is a dangerous job. There are many jobs to choose from. Why did you choose this?"

"You don't understand, I don't want to do those jobs, a lot of people have died for their country, I can't get by here."

"Your body is not suitable for the battlefield, why don't you think about yourself?" Xi was surprised by Steve's answer.

"I don't want to join the military for myself . . . . "

"No wonder, you just want to prove yourself," Bucky's voice came from behind, interrupting Steve.

"Hey, don't win until I'm gone," Steve yells to Bucky as he departs.Steve watched Bucky salute in his uniform and sighed.

"I'll go and have a look inside, you can go around by yourself." Steve said apologetically

Xi took a look inside, "Do you want to go for an enlistment inspection?"

"Of course, I won't give up." Rogers replied while turning his head as he walked in.

"How do you feel about this person? Is he the type you are looking for?" Xi had spotted Erskine on the side a long time ago, and when Rogers turned the corner, he asked Erskine who was walking beside him.

"It seems that you are very friendly! But whether you are the best candidate has to be investigated." Erskine joked, and then replied. "Give him a chance.

"How about we make a bet?"

"Oh? What are you betting on?" Erskine asked in surprise. He didn't expect Xie to recognize this thin young man so much.

"Just bet, this skinny young man is the one you're looking for."

"Hahaha, you actually bet on this?" Erskine was amused by the content of the bet, "Are you so sure?" But looking at his serious tone, he put away his smile and asked.

"If you lose, the bottle of wine in your backpack will belong to me."

"Ahem, okay!" Erskine was startled by Xi's request, and choked on his saliva. "We'll see."
