In American comics, drawing cards reveals wave-particle duality

Before going to the "Heroes Meeting", Homelander suddenly thought of Xuanse, a member of the Seven-Man Team. It seems that he was also a member of the "Repayer Alliance" before, and maybe he knew the inside story of Soldier Boy...

Before he left, he ordered the personnel at the intelligence center to contact Xuan Se who was on a mission outside, and then he returned to the meeting room of the seven-member team alone.

Looking at the main table in the middle, a trace of confusion flashed across the motherland's eyes, and then his expression became ferocious.

He sat back in the seat that once belonged to him, closed his eyes, and stroked the chair with nostalgia on his face, as if it were a rare treasure.

Before the Chinese man had sat in the office for long, there was a knock on the door.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Enter."

Seeing Xuanse in black armor coming in, Homelander nodded with satisfaction and pointed his gloves to the side.

"Sit down, Xuanse, we need to talk."

Xuanse was a mute, but he executed orders faster than anyone else. He moved his chair away and quickly sat on the chair next to the main seat.

The motherland walked to the window with his hands behind his back and looked down at the night view of the city.

"You should know why I called you here."

He got straight to the point.

Xuan Se remained silent and did not respond. He just stood up and walked to the whetstone specially made for him in the hall. He picked up a sharp dagger and began to sharpen it slowly and rhythmically.

The sound of metal rubbing against stone was particularly clear in the quiet room.

Homelander turned around and looked directly at Xuan Se's black mask. His X-ray eyes went straight through and stared at Xuan Se's eyes, which were trying to be calm and somewhat evasive.

"Soldier Boy is back."

He said.

"He attacked the Scarlet Lady. I need to know why."

Xuan Se stopped what he was doing and looked up at his motherland.

A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He put down the dagger, walked to the wall, and pointed at a photo.

Those were group photos of successive teams that Vought Corporation had put on the wall a long time ago, including a photo of the "Repayer Alliance" during World War II.

The photo shows them standing together, smiling brightly.

Xuanse pointed at the soldier boy in the photo, then pointed at the others, and finally made a "very bad" gesture.

Homelander frowned.

"You mean, he broke up with you?"

Xuanse nodded, then walked to the filing table and took out a document.

He flipped open the file and pointed to a page, and Homelander looked closer and saw that it was a report about a soldier boy who was captured by the Russians.

"You all took part in this?"

Homelander asked, a hint of surprise in his voice.

Xuan Se nodded again, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes beneath the mask.

He made a gesture of betrayal and pointed to the Vought Corporation logo.

The motherland's expression suddenly became gloomy.

"You mean, it's not just you guys, but Vought Corporation is also involved?"

Xuan Se did not respond directly, but walked back to the whetstone and continued to sharpen his dagger, but his movements became faster, as if he was venting his inner anxiety.

Homelander knew this was Black's acquiescence, and he took a deep breath and remained calm.

"If so, what might he do next?"

At this time, Xuan Se stopped what he was doing and looked directly into the eyes of his motherland.

He pointed at each person in the photo and made a decapitation motion.

There was a flash of panic in the eyes of the motherland.

"You mean, he'll come to each of you?"

Xuan Se nodded, then pointed at Homelander, made a crown gesture, and finally made a falling motion.

The people of our country understood Xuanse's meaning:

Soldier Boy will come after the members of the Seven one by one, and will even come to deal with him in the end.

Hearing this, the motherland's expression became ferocious, and he lowered his voice and said:

"Xuan Se, we must stop him. If this affects me and the company, and Walter falls, you and I will fall with him."

Xuanse was silent for a long time, then suddenly stood up and walked in front of his motherland, holding the extremely sharp dagger in his hand.

The Homelander was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Xuanse meant.

This was Black's way of showing support - he would side with Homelander and help him deal with Soldier Boy.

"Oh...thank you," Homelander said, a hint of emotion in his voice.

"I know that you will always be the good brother that I trust the most."

"Okay, go ahead and continue with your task. Now that things have come to this, I have to make some responses as well."

Xuanse nodded and left the meeting room in a hurry.

"Hey... this guy."

The people of Homeland looked at Xuanse's hurried back and found it a little funny. This loyal subordinate was really... dedicated.

But the truth may be completely opposite to what people in our motherland think.

Xuanse walked slowly into the elevator of the Water Company's headquarters building. His disfigured face under the mask was already covered with cold sweat. He didn't even hear the intern standing next to him in the elevator who greeted him.

The elevator door slowly closed, and Xuanse seemed to have made up his mind.

Without any warning, his hand moved at lightning speed and a sharp dagger appeared between his fingers, the blade flashing coldly under the glaring elevator lights.

The intern looked up and was startled by the sudden noise. The next second, he was frozen in fear by the scene in front of him.

Xuan Se didn't hesitate at all, and the tip of the knife pierced his arm accurately, and blood flowed down the blade.

After a few seconds, a metal object the size of a grain of rice was picked out and dripped with blood onto the glove.

This small device carries Vought Corporation's absolute control over the superheroes - a locator implanted in the body that monitors their every move at all times.

He suddenly looked up at the stunned intern, who was trembling and seemed to want to scream but couldn't make a sound. Xuanse slowly turned around and threw the blood-stained locator into the female intern's hand.

After doing all this, Xuanse ignored the intern girl whose facial expression was out of control and covered her mouth with one hand, turned around and strode out of the elevator.

At this time, the other side.

Butcher's car stopped outside a luxurious villa full of lights and nights, and the sound of music that destroyed people's worldview kept coming out from inside.

"Looks like the party is going strong."

Butcher said sarcastically,

"Ready to see the 'high' life of a modern superhero, veteran?"

"Maybe there's something good in there, more than 80 years old... You can go there to relieve your boredom."

The soldier boy was holding a cigarette in his mouth and had a smirk on his face.

"Dude, I guess you don't understand my taste."

“Women are like fine wine, the older they get the better they become.”

"Old soldier, are you serious?"

Butcher's face looked a little strange, and he suddenly thought of -

The first thing the old soldier said when he saw the Scarlet Lady was "You've grown old"...

Could this be a compliment to her?

Forget it, America is too tolerant, let’s talk about business.

"The TNT twins, your two old friends. Now they are regular guests at this party. They are said to accept anything, from pills to colors."

"These two idiots...they played even more wildly back then, but you just don't know it."

The soldier boy put out the cigarette butt with his fingers and exhaled a long puff of smoke from his mouth.

"Are you sure it's here?"

"Otherwise... enjoy this rare modern landscape, veteran."

Butcher closed the car door and walked straight to the gate of the villa without waiting for the soldier boy.

"A gathering of heroes? Your dad is here."
