Nuannuan takes you to fly

Chapter 23 7 years later

"Welcome to a new era, Captain, my name is Nick Fury."

When Steve Rogers woke up from his deep sleep, everything around him changed. The black man wore a blindfold on his left eye and said this to him with a smile. Steve glanced at the crowd around him. The agents in black suits were silent.He could feel that this person was welcoming him from the bottom of his heart, rejoicing at his presence, although the motive was not that pure.

"Where am I now?" Steve heard himself asking.

Nick Fury was only silent for a few seconds, "This is the building of S.H.I.E.L.D." He looked straight into Steve's eyes with a very serious expression, "Captain, 70 years have passed since your era."

70 years is really too long for Steve. Although his appearance still maintains his youthful appearance, in fact, he is completely incompatible with the current world.

Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, Steve can see the outside landscape very clearly. Row upon row of orderly buildings is completely different from Brooklyn 70 years ago.

"As you can see." Nick stood side by side with Steve, "Captain, our country has passed the troubled era of constant wars and ushered in a new future."

Steve didn't speak, but there was relief in his eyes, and even more unspeakable sadness.

Nick glanced at him, "But this does not mean that our country is safe. In fact, as we progress, our enemies are also advancing. Although the campaign against the Nazis has been successful, the evil will never It will stop its breeding, so we still need your strength, Captain."

Steve didn't speak, he didn't even give a glance to the man beside him, he just stared at the scene outside the French window, Nick has been quietly waiting for his reply, but Steve remained silent, I don't know how long , he finally spoke

"Did you find no one else in the place where you found me?"

Nick shook his head regretfully, "I'm sorry, but we didn't find any trace of Barnes' soldiers."

Steve paused, "Then...is there anyone I know in this world? Howard?"

Nick: "Sorry, Mr. Howard passed away in a car accident a few years ago, but if you want, I can arrange for you to meet Agent Peggy."

"Peggy?" Steve's expression was a little surprised

Nick: "Yeah."

Steve was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

……

The news of Captain America waking up from the glacier quickly spread, and the people could hardly contain their excitement and joy. Steve Rogers is a symbol of heroes and a symbol of peace. He is the only one in the hearts of many Americans. Idol, the flow of people in the Smithsonian Museum is getting bigger and bigger, people hang up banners, put up posters, and gather there in batches. The hero, accompanied by Natasha Romanoff, went to Peggy Carter's house.

She is no longer young, or it should be said that she is too old, with gray hair and wrinkles on her face. After seeing Steve, she had to think for a long time before reacting.

"Nice to meet you, Steve, I'm really surprised that after 70 years we can still meet in this way."

Steve smiled. He glanced at the family portrait on the bedside, his eyes were full of tenderness, "Me too, you know, I don't know anyone else in this world."

"Seeing that you are doing well, I am really happy for you."

He lowered his head slightly to hide his nervous expression, but the clenched hands had already betrayed him. Peggy kept looking at Steve quietly, understanding

"Steve," she said slowly.

"At that time, we all thought you had died, and the president wanted to recreate the serum, so Dr. Erskine managed to escape from the United States before then."

Steve raised his head again, there was hope in his eyes, but more of it was the sadness of a known ending

"Miss Xia..." Peggy's expression was a little regretful

"She disappeared mysteriously on the day of your 'sacrifice', I'm sorry."

Steve didn't say a word.

Peggy: "At that time, the military also sent a lot of people to look for it, but they all returned without success, so after that, I never saw Miss Xia again."

"I see..." Steve lowered his head and smiled, he didn't seem sad, he finally looked at the group photo on the bedside, and then stood up

"Thank you for the news, Peggy."

Peggy smiled and shook her head

"Steve."

Just as Steve was about to leave the room, Peggy suddenly spoke behind him

"This world has completely changed, and none of us can go back to the past, so... let's let go of those that should be let go."

Steve turned around, his eyes were full of deep and suppressed pain, Peggy's words mercilessly pierced his disguise, so now he can no longer pretend to be nonchalant to comfort himself , to deceive others.

There was dim light in the room. Peggy lay there with helplessness, regret, and pain in her eyes. Steve looked at her, and couldn't help but shift his gaze to the family portrait.

"Steve, let me ask you a question. If we get married in the future, do you prefer boys or girls?"

In that distant, familiar and vague memory, the girl once asked him half-jokingly and half-seriously, that day was a good day, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the sun shone on her face ,really beautiful.

On the way back, Natasha sat in the driver's seat and drove the car, Steve sat in the co-pilot, and remained very silent.

Natasha: "I thought you'd be happy seeing your old friends again."

"Oh, of course." Steve nodded perfunctorily

Natasha turned her head and glanced at him, "Can I ask you a question?"

Steve: "What?"

Natasha: "Do you regret it?"

Do you regret that you chose to perish with the enemy without hesitation?

Steve smiled suddenly, "Regret? I won't regret it."

He moved his gaze out the window

"I'm just... sorry."

……

Today is Saturday, sunny to cloudy, Xia Tian looked out the window, the dark clouds have gradually piled up, it looks like it is going to rain, usually, this kind of weather is very suitable for sleeping, but her first reaction is not to take off her clothes Going to bed, she took out a record from the drawer and put it into the phonograph. The female singer's voice was like an elf dancing in the jungle. As she listened, her thoughts began to diverge involuntarily.

She thought of her childhood, as a simple "summer" childhood, it was a rainy day, the window was green, and there were no smartphones or Internet in her world, but there were clear and green lakes and egrets flying with wings .She sat alone on the window eaves of the second floor of the house, not afraid of falling, dangling her bare feet, just listening to the sound of rain, during which time she thought of the composition she wrote about her parents not long ago, and remembered that she hadn't met her new husband yet. A friend I knew went to take a picture of the photo, and remembered the new cotton coat that the dean's mother handed her, so I sat thinking about it all afternoon.

There is a very lush ginkgo tree at the gate of the orphanage, which turns golden every autumn. I think of the golden color in summer, and then I think of the big sunflower in front of Erskine’s house, and the one behind the barracks. A small hillside, remembering...the bright starry sky she had seen with Steve.

This kind of mood is like the sky suddenly raining, like seeing the past morning sun in the sunset, like feeling the warm sunshine in the cool wind, like... feeling lost.

"Meow~" Big Meow lay down on the carpet and yawned in a very humane way. It glanced at Xia Tian on the sofa, and then sighed silently in his heart, "If you miss him, go see him, don't be old. It’s sad being alone in the house.”

Xia Tian lowered his head and smiled, he didn't seem so disappointed.

"I know. I've been doing psychological construction during this time, and I feel that I'm almost ok. I'll go find him in a few days."

Big Meow nodded in satisfaction. To be honest, it has never understood why Xia Tian is so entangled in his mood. Some human emotions and thoughts are really too complicated. Unlike it, a pot of pork belly can be happy. , um... Pork belly is really delicious

"Summer! My pork belly is almost finished! Remember to buy me new ones recently!"

The girl shook her head helplessly and amusedly, "I know, I know."

Really... I'm not afraid of getting fat...
