Marvel's Last Angel

Chapter 40 Bookstore Owner
"Xi, wake up, Aunt Mei made you your favorite biscuits." Early in the morning, Aunt Mei stood at the stairs and called Xi to get up for breakfast, but there was no response after waiting for a long time.She shook her head with a smile, ready to eat first and let Xi sleep for a while.In the past, it was necessary to shout three times.

"Good morning, Aunt Mei!" Natasha's voice came from the door.

"Miss Nasha, you are back too. I made breakfast, do you want some?" Aunt Mei put down the newspaper in her hand.This was the habit of Ben Parker before.

"Thank you, Aunt Mei, I've already eaten. Xi is back, right?" Natasha seemed to be in a hurry.S.H.I.E.L.D. discovered that Xi had returned last night.Director Nick hurriedly sent Natasha to find out the situation.

"Yes, I came back last night. I made her favorite biscuits. She should still be sleeping." Aunt May signaled Natasha not to worry, and poured her a glass of water. "You know, it needs to be called three times."

"Okay, I should be patient." Natasha thought about it, and felt that there was nothing urgent, and it didn't hurt to wait.

"I'll go..." Natasha stood up and called Aunt Mei to stop.

"Okay, you can just pull her up." Aunt Mei glanced at Natasha and understood.The old lady has been through a lot, and she knows they have something to talk about.

Natasha went upstairs lightly, ready to open the door.But the door didn't budge.It's a pity that it should have been dealt with on the door, or the whole room.

"Click"

The door was opened from the inside, and Natasha put down her hand that was about to knock on the door.She saw sleepy Xie in the crack of the door.

"Natasha? Oh, what's the matter?" Xi glanced outside the door, helplessly sleepy, turned around and lay down on the bed again.

"Unfortunately, where have you been these two years? Unfortunately..." Natasha probed with her hand and found that there was nothing wrong.This was the first time she entered Xi's room.This room is the nicest in the whole house with great light.Although the sun was already high outside, it still couldn't wake up the sleeping slacker.

Natasha looked at the room, it was not big, with a table, a chair, a bed, a bookcase connected to the wardrobe, and a carpet on the floor.Things are a little messy.The owner should not like to clean up.Xi just huddled on the big white bed, the quilt was hugged in her arms, and the pillow was kicked off to the ground.

Natasha picked up the pillow that was blocking the way on the ground, and out of the corner of her eye, she found a strange book in the corner next to it.The books are complete but old and should be opened frequently.She picked it up and opened it, and found that there was nothing inside, and there were no traces of writing or drawing. "What kind of book is this, so strange..."

"Hmm...!" The sleeping person seemed to feel something and babbled in his sleep, not knowing what he had dreamed of.

"Unfortunately, wake up..." Natasha put down the book, shook the person on the bed, and found that she had no intention of waking up. "How much God loves this girl and gave her all the beauty, even when she is sleeping, she is so beautiful."

"Ouch...! What are you doing?"

"Of course I wake you up..." Natasha put her hands away.

"Just scream! Why did you hit me...and hit there." Xi rubbed her butt, turned over and got up.This immediately woke her up.

"There is no other way to wake you up."

"What do you want from me?" Xi calmed down.This person coming to her now should not be as simple as calling her to get up.There are many things to do as a senior agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Where have you been these two years?" Natasha asked hesitantly.

Xi paused when she got out of bed, her expression changed. "The news from S.H.I.E.L.D. is quite well-informed."

Natasha heard the sarcasm in Xi's tone, "What about me personally? I care about you and ask."

"You'd better not know, it's not good to know too much. Besides, I'm fine, thank you" Xi postponed.

"Okay, you change your clothes first." Natasha motioned to her. "They're all women, yet they're still shy...By the way, Aunt Mei made breakfast for you, waiting for you to go down."

"Understood, you go out quickly. Close the door by the way." Xi urged anxiously.

At the stairway, Natasha pressed her ears lightly and spoke softly. "She didn't say..."

"I see," came a deep voice from the other side after a period of silence. "You arrange other things first."

"Yes"

Director's Office of Tricurve Wing Building
"Are you sure it's her?" Nick Fury said in disbelief after finishing the call. "But it's been more than 70 years"

"Nick, you have been the director for so long, can't you accept this situation?" An old man's voice came from beside him, his tone full of lateness. "Even if I forget everything, I will never forget her." Peggy Carter looked at the little girl in the video, seemingly lost in memory.

"When she left, all information was erased. The only person who knew her was me. Now I have to add you. Fury, you know what to do." Carter's voice suddenly became majestic.

"I know" Nick knew how powerful it was, and nodded in response. "Do you need me to inform her? After all you..."

"No, she knows everything." Carter interrupted Nick Fury, "If she wants to see me, she will come. She will come to get back what belongs to her."

Carter looked down at his chest.The Spear of Killing God is still hanging there as before. Even after 70 years, there is still no change. "Unfortunately, you haven't changed at all, but I'm already old... I don't know, do you still recognize me?"

"Go to school...?" Xi stared at Natasha with a biscuit in her mouth. "I just escaped from school and I want to go back? I won't go..."

"You are still young, so you still need to go to school. I discussed it with Nasha. You are two years late, and no school accepts you. I also asked Peter to ask about their school." Aunt Mei persuaded patiently. "Fortunately, after the efforts of Nasha and Peter, this school decided to accept you after reading your information. You can go to school tomorrow."

"Okay! Going to college is still acceptable." Xi felt a little hopeless, and angrily grabbed a few more biscuits and stuffed them into her mouth.

"By the way, has the money Tony owed me arrived?" Xi seemed to think of something. "He owes me a lot of money!"

"There are quite a few, but it's not on your account." Natasha was a little envious when she said this.

"Tony once came to look for you, but he couldn't find you. You had already left at that time, and I couldn't tell." Aunt Mei took the conversation and handed over a business card.

"During that time, Stark Corporation was hit, so I used your money first. Oh, you are still a big shareholder of Stark Corporation." Natasha added.

"Old lady, I am often alone. Apart from being here and at home, I basically have nothing to do. Tony has been here several times, and I am familiar with him. He is a nice young man." Aunt Mei was a little embarrassed when it came to this. "I'm sorry, sorry. Aunt Mei decided to use your money to open a bookstore."

"What...? Bookstore?" Xi felt a desire coming from the depths of her soul.This is the obsession of the previous life.In the previous life, I always wanted to own my own bookstore, but failed for various reasons until I traveled to Marvel. "Where is it?"

"It's not far from the Stark Corporation office building. Speaking of which, that playboy helped a lot." Natasha explained, afraid of getting angry.

"Thank you, Aunt Mei, I like this bookstore very much." Xie was a little dazed, looking down at the milk in the glass, her pretty face was reflected in the liquid, and she seemed to see the ordinary face from her previous life in a blur. "Aunt Mei, wait a minute, take me to see if it's okay."

"Of course, my little boss." Aunt Mei was not angry.Delighted to make a joke.
