The Great Winter Soldier

Washington, America.

Steve was wearing a sports vest and looking fresh. He was sitting at the computer desk in the living room of his apartment.

Yes, it has been more than two years since he was awakened from the ice. He is overwhelmed by all kinds of novelties in this colorful world. He still doesn’t know much about the history of the past 70 years, and he can’t understand what’s on TV. Those shows.

Steve was always confused by the casual words people said on TV shows. Steve would always quickly record them in his notebook, and then go online to look up the meaning and story behind those words.

Fortunately, Steve learned how to surf the Internet and how to accept this prosperous and strange society.

Living next door to him is a young and beautiful female nurse. She is very nice and always answers Steve's questions. She is very gentle and patient. This made Steve feel the warmth that this world should have.

Steve could feel the kind heart of the other person and the excellent qualities she showed. Steve once worked up the courage to ask her out for a cup of coffee, but that woman was very busy. She had a sacred job, and Steve was unwilling to disturb her work. Maybe at a certain minute one day, the woman would Bring a patient back from the brink of death. Steve believes that he should not selfishly occupy her time. She needs to leave her time to those who really need help.

Therefore, Steve never spoke again. He just lived a normal life every day, and occasionally offered a word of greeting when he saw her tired figure in the corridor.

Life after 70 years is still monotonous for Steve. He just accepts the half-ordered and half-requested tasks from Director Nick Fury, and then rests and lives leisurely in his free time. If there are no accidents, maybe the rest of his life. We have to live in this mode.

As it happens, it's been Steve's day off lately. He lived a very healthy life. After his morning exercise, he was making breakfast while listening to the news on the TV, until a piece of news made Steve stop stirring the cereal and turned his head to look at the TV.

"Summer..." Steve looked at the clear pictures on the TV. Steve's expression became worried as Xia Tian's bloody appearance changed, and then changed as Xia Tian finally beheaded the evil elf. Be pleased.

Steve came to the computer with a porcelain bowl and a spoon in his mouth. This search opened the door to a new world for Steve. He thought the world was still so peaceful, but that was not how it was stated on the Internet.

Steve has no friends to talk to. Although there will be pairs of admiring eyes on him when he walks in SHIELD, his heart is not open to people. Only occasionally when he saw Black Widow during a mission, the two chatted for a few words. The rest of the time, although he was surrounded by people and led batch after batch of soldiers, he was still alone.

Therefore, television, newspapers and the Internet became Steve's means of connecting to the world, but he felt like a blind man. If he had not seen this news occasionally, he would not have known what earth-shattering scenes had happened in the world.

As Steve learned more, his brows became more and more frowned. He seemed to smell a hint of "conspiracy". The intense discussion on the Internet also made Steve re-examine the cause of superheroes, especially What is unexpected about the fierce tactics of superheroes is that the center of the public opinion storm is not the Avengers, but Hell's Kitchen, where "talents are abundant" and there are also "heinous crimes". Such a legendary team should have Hell's Kitchen is in good order, and that's true. The crime rate there has plummeted. However, there are fewer petty thefts, and super criminals seem to be popping up. And these super criminals don't go to other heroes, who have fewer or even no heroes. area, but stubbornly chose Hell’s Kitchen. Is there an inevitable connection between this situation?

Recently, a man called "The Punisher" appeared in Hell's Kitchen. He was executing gang members in an extremely bloody way. Although everyone he executed was guilty,...

Steve's eyes were quickly attracted by the world-renowned blog post, and his frown gradually relaxed. He looked at Xia Tian's arms with mottled five-star marks and the neat messages below. Steve My husband's heart palpitated slightly.

Xia Tian, ​​the young man who welcomes him to wake up and helps him integrate into the world, although he was born in the dirt, has been doing the right things.

Steve sighed deeply. What Xia Tian did was not exactly what he wanted to do. Wasn't it the meaning of his existence?

Or, you can send him some congratulations and some concern. Or, he can remind Xia Tian to make his Hell's Kitchen team's methods more gentle and no longer become the target of fierce attacks from around the world.

Or maybe... Steve just wanted a real friend to talk to, that's all.

Steve stood up, rummaged in the inner pocket of his leather jacket, found a business card, and dialed the number on it.

"Pseudonym Agency." The person who answered the phone was a male voice with a unique black accent. "Before you speak, please re-examine whether your trouble can be solved by 911."

Steve was slightly stunned, smiled and shook his head, saying: "I'm looking for Xia Tian."

"Sorry, our firm does not provide this service." The man said helplessly.

Steve even heard a female voice: "Go to hell, you crazy groupies, there are 100 million detective agencies in the world, bother them not to make harassing calls just because they are in Hell's Kitchen under a false name."

Steve laughed dumbly and said: "It was the business card that Xia Tian personally gave me. He said that if I want to contact him, I can call this number."

Steve only heard a burst of sound on the other end of the phone, and then a female voice came over with a blazing curse: "Xia Tian personally gave your Xia Tian, ​​and he even personally served my mother tea and water. I once shouted with a bottle of wine. Do you believe it on his face? You guys are so damn annoying..."

"Hey, hey Jessica, when will you change your bad temper?" Luke Cage held down the "raging" Jessica with one hand, reached out to grab the phone, and said, "I don't think this will work. If If you have nothing else to do, please put down the phone and give your time to those who really need help."

Hearing this, Steve suddenly fell silent.

Luke Cage watched Jessica throw away her hand and walk away. After the room returned to silence, Luke Cage seemed to feel that his words were a bit harsh. Although he was stating a fact, but...

"Who am I talking to?" Compared to Jessica, Luke Cage is still a relatively kind person.

"You're right, I should save my time for those who really need help." Steve said apologetically, "I'm sorry."

Immediately, he hung up the phone.

Luke Cage listened to the busy tone in his ears, shook his head and hung up the phone. The Kana Firm is located in Hell's Kitchen, and is highly praised by the people. They have helped many people in trouble. The rumors have already spread the Kana Firm It was so popular that many people looking for "Hell's Kitchen Leader Summer" called here, thinking that this highly rated firm would fulfill their wishes.

Whether they are fans, reporters, or interested people with other thoughts, all in all, in recent times, Jessica has been so annoyed that she wants to kill someone.

"Maybe we can find that soldier if we go out for a walk." Luke Cage came to the bedroom and suggested as he watched Jessica sprawled on the bed.

"That Punisher," Jessica muttered, "I'm not interested. That's a matter for the special operations team."

"Hey, by the way." Jessica suddenly thought of something and asked, "How do you think we should define the Punisher?"

"Uh..." Luke Cage was speechless for a while. He seemed to have many thoughts in his mind, but he didn't know where to start.

Meanwhile, far away in Scotland.

Due to the time zone, it is dawn here in the morning. The sun's rays of brilliance appear on the distant mountains. There are clouds dyed orange in the sky. Below is a lush green grassland. As the breeze caresses Then, the sound of rustling came from the distant woods, and the sky was high and the clouds were clear. This picturesque Marun Castle was indeed refreshing and suitable for recuperation after the war.

This is Scotland. I don’t know if the sky at Marlen St. Castle is as hazy as London every day in summer, but at least from now on, the weather here should be good, and the two of them finally escaped from the hell in London.

"You have a loyal believer." Outside the door of the wooden house, Nicole was sitting leisurely in a rocking chair. Although the cool weather in the early morning was a bit cold, she felt very comfortable. Now that Xia Tian has taken over the work of tidying up the house, Nicole is happy and free, playing with her mobile phone outside the door of the wooden house, smiling and saying through the window, "No, not just one, there are many, many, many people have posted it. The red star tattoos on their arms..."

I saw everyone’s comments on the starting point. To be honest, Yu was really touched. I won’t say more, but I will add more tomorrow.

I also say to every friend who watches pirated copies, if you are really financially strapped, you can come to the Qidian website and spend a dime to subscribe to the first VIP chapter, which can be regarded as a kind of support for me. 1 cent, 90 words, no loss.
