[Zhongyingmei] That snake

"Oliver, are we in China?" Hotch looked at the black-haired, black-eyed and yellow-skinned people on the bustling streets, and he and Oliver, two foreigners, stood out in the crowd.

But Oliver stood there motionless, watching the green light at the intersection turn on, and students, old people, and white-collar workers passed by on the zebra crossing.Then, water-like cars, bicycles and three-wheeled manpower passed through them again.Like the relationship between stones and water in a stream.

But his eyes fell on an ordinary high school student wearing a blue and white school uniform and carrying a backpack.

"Yes, this is China." Oliver said in a daze, reaching back and holding Hotch's hand.

"What happened in Wakanda? I remember I was in Washington last second." Hotch held Oliver's cold and trembling palm instead.

"The enemy of the Mind Stone is coming." Oliver recovered from the red light and looked back at the empty zebra crossing. Thor, Loki, and the Hulk who have returned from the universe have a chance to face Thanos' space team together."

Oliver took back the Power and Reality Stones he was holding from Thanos, and he removed the Mind Stone from Vision's head. Thor beheaded Thanos, and his army was leaderless and scattered in an instant.And next, they need to solve Oliver's problem, but the Mind Stone doesn't accept the idea of ​​anyone wanting to have it, so Oliver snatches the last gem in the hands of the supreme mage Steven Strange.And so it happened when he held all the gems in his hand,

"We defeated him, got all the gems, and then I came here, I don't know why you show up, but at least this is China, don't worry about those weird aliens."

Oliver took a copy of People's Daily from a newsstand on the street.He was slightly surprised by the time in the newspaper, "January 1999, 1."

Oliver happened to be 18 years old this year in his previous life and was struggling to prepare for the college entrance examination.

"Is this Beijing?" Hotch didn't know what to do, so he could only follow Oliver.

Oliver looked up at the gray-yellow sky in Beijing in winter. There was not much smog at this time, so he smiled self-deprecatingly, "Yes, it's Beijing, this is Beijing."

He was flipping through the newspaper in his hand, and a few gazes made his back shiver.His mutant abilities are still there, and the power of the gems seems to be still there.

Oliver glanced up at a few locals who were watching him, and pulled Hotch towards an alley around the corner.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Oliver decided to temporarily borrow the power of the Mind Gem and the Space Gem. A blue light flashed in the alley, and the two disappeared.

The person following behind suddenly stood at the entrance of the alley in a daze, not knowing what he was doing just now.

————————————————————————————————————————

Hotch came out of the hotel room bathroom, towel in hand to wipe his dripping hair from washing.

"Who were those guys just now?" Hotch asked.

Oliver sat cross-legged on the big bed, fiddling with the laptop he just bought.

Before he came here from the original world, he was fighting Thanos, and a little bit before that, he was on a state visit to Wakanda. He couldn't even wear a combat uniform, only a suit, let alone bring money.And Hotch's wallet has only a few dozen dollars and a few credit cards that can't be accepted at this place in this day and age.

So Oliver could only feel wronged by the gem of reality, and used the energy of the gem to forge two passports, a bank card, and the numbers on the bank card.

"It should be a plainclothes policeman." Oliver guessed, "This is the capital. During the off-season of tourism, there may be more plainclothes policemen on the street than tourists."

"But I remember that there were already many foreign tourists in China at this time?" Hotch felt that their behavior at that time was not unusual.

Oliver raised his head, "When I lived at my grandfather's house, I read a lot of materials. It said that there is a mysterious intelligence department in China named Beijing. Maybe we happened to meet a member of the department. , and said the word too many times, acting suspiciously. Don't worry, I solved it with the Mind Stone."

"You said before that superheroes in this world, including the Avengers, are just characters in comics, so why do your mutant abilities and gems still work. Have you really gotten rid of the control of gems?"

"I'm sure he can't manipulate me anymore." Oliver bit his lip, spread his hands in mid-air, and colorful gem shards appeared in his palm, "They're broken like this."

"Okay. But if the intelligence agency you met is still called Beijing, does King'sman still exist?" Hotch sat beside Oliver, the soft bed sank in an instant, and Oliver leaned over there consciously depend on.

"I don't think there is. I checked the US stock market and there is no State'sman winery. BAU still exists, but I don't have your name in the FBI database. That is to say, it is a complete winery. There is no world for the two of us. By the way, now that we are both undocumented and unemployed, do you have a list of [-] things you must do before you die, and give us a reference?"

"Gideon had one back then, but he broke his leg when he started the first event," Hotch said wistfully.

"Sounds bad," Oliver wrinkled his nose and put his arm around Hotch's shoulders, "but if I remember correctly, didn't our honeymoon last only three days?"

"Yeah, three days later you're called back to that damn natural disaster fundraiser," Hotch said in a tone of gnashing of teeth, but then couldn't help laughing, "We can make up the remaining 27 days .”

"That's a good idea," Oliver agreed, kissing the corner of Hotch's mouth, "Now that we're all in Beijing, let's start here. Then go south to the mouth of the Yangtze River in Shanghai, and then take a boat back to Go to the United States, or go to Europe to play around. Anyway, I have the Reality Gem to change the number on the bank card. Oh, is this illegal? Maybe we should find a job. The Reality Gem can fake degrees, you Which university do you want? There was a period of time before I regretted that I didn’t go to the university to study for a Ph. Peter who is studying, I seem to be the one with the lowest education."

"Do you have a lot to say today?"

Oliver's hand on Hotch's shoulder was stiff, and he took a few breaths, "I've been holding back for seven years, just listen to me."

Hotch stroked Oliver's sideburns with one hand. When he was running for the election, he cut his long hair short - in order to create a more accessible and capable image. Hotch could feel the stubble under his hands, and suddenly felt distressed and guilty, "I'm listening, maybe you can grow your hair long and become a writer, so you don't need to fake your degree, which is also against the law, remember? Write about BAU's past cases. Rossi was also a best-selling author back then."

"I think I can give it a try." Oliver, who majored in literature in his previous life, was suddenly eager to try. "But I can't start writing now. Think about where to go tomorrow. How about going to the Forbidden City first?"

"I don't know the way here," Hotch buried his head on Oliver's shoulder, "Just don't leave me in this big city of Beijing."

————————————————————————————————————————

Facts have proved that after nearly 40 years without returning to Beijing, Oliver doesn't know the way here, and he even almost remembered the bus number wrong.

When he saw a high school student in school uniform waiting in his field of vision, he decided to ask for directions.

"Excuse me, do you know how far it is to walk to the Forbidden City from here? I came here by bus, so I don't think it's too far away." Oliver asked.

The other party listened to English for a while, looked up blankly, and took five or six seconds to understand what Oliver just said, and Oliver waited patiently.

"I, I think my English is not very good, uh, how are you?"

"Except for getting lost, it's not bad."

"I'm fine too. No." The other party seemed to be desperate for his poor English, "wait a moment."

He took out the draft book from his schoolbag and flipped through it. There was a page full of math drafts and ancient poetry dictation exercises. He picked out a blank page and drew a map for Oliver. "Just follow this."

"Thank you."

"No, thank you." The other party hurriedly got on the bus, "I mean no thanks."

Oliver stood where he was, watched the bus leave and even the exhaust gas disappeared in the smoke before his eyes, and called Hotch, "Let's go, follow this road, you shouldn't lose it."

Hotch looked thoughtfully at the smiling Oliver.

————————————————————————————————————————

He really didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky recently. He met two foreigners one after another asking for directions, one yesterday and another today, both happened to be on his way to school.He could only speak broken English and old-fashioned sentences again, and the two parties ended the conversation half-guessed, although the other party seemed to be very used to his tone and had a strong understanding ability.

Hotch came back and sat on the bench next to Oliver, who was eating a pancake. "Did he understand you?"

"He can understand you, why can't he understand me?"

"You remember him?" Oliver was a little surprised.

"We came here for three days, and we met this boy three times. Every time you stared at him, what do you think?"

"Well, Aaron," Oliver suddenly felt guilty, "you know Orientals always look young, but I'm sure he's a senior in high school and has turned 18."

"Yes, you're sure about the bus route he takes to school every day," Hotch said meaningfully, "We've been together these few days, and I'm sure you don't have time to do these investigations, and his voice... I have heard other Chinese speak English a few days ago, and his tone is different from his. I am sure I can understand him because you also had this tone during the time when you lost your memory. Oliver, you said this is one of the two of us A world that never existed, but that boy, is he the past you?"

"Do you believe in reincarnation?" Oliver tried to remedy.

"When all this happened, I had to believe it."

Oliver dropped the last pancake of the morning from his favorite pancake store in his previous life, "I really shouldn't be looking for a BAU husband."

"We're divorced." Hotch looked at him with a half-smile, "And at this time, the United States hasn't passed the gay marriage bill, so we can't remarry for the time being."

"Desperate."

No one would ever know if Oliver was referring to Hotch finding his soul or if the two of them weren't legally married now.
