The Third Winter Soldier

Chapter 25: Morning Exercise

The next day, morning.

Lilith came out of Nemo Manor in sports attire, and within a few seconds, Charlie also appeared in a sports style. He looked around and saw Lilith doing a few simple warm-up moves, then carefully moved to the Beside her, she smiled embarrassingly and said, "Morning! Honey!"

Lilith turned her head to look at him, and said expressionlessly, "Lilith."

Charlie was taken aback, not understanding why she suddenly said her name, looked at her stupidly and asked, "What?"

"My name!" Lilith lowered her waist and stretched her leg muscles for a few seconds, then slowly straightened her waist, "I hope you can remember it!"

"Ah!" Charlie suddenly understood, and said with a smile, "But, don't you think it's more kind to call you Honey?"

Lilith glanced at him and said, "If you want, I can turn you into honey right now, real honey."

When Charlie heard the words "real honey", he happened to meet her eyes. He read her seriousness from the bottom of her eyes, and couldn't help shaking. Well, what a scary look!He suddenly understood what real honey is, and immediately nodded kindly, and said solemnly: "I see, Lilith, I, I don't want to become..." real honey.

Lilith nodded in satisfaction, and after finishing the stretching exercises in her hands, she started to jog along the lake.

Seeing her running towards the lake, Charlie hurriedly called out, "Hey, honey... Lilith, wait for me!"

Lilith turned a deaf ear to Charlie's yelling, and didn't slow down at all, and ran towards the distance step by step.

Charlie had no choice but to take a step forward and ran towards Lilith frantically.

The two were running by the lake one after the other. After about 5 minutes, the distance between the two became wider and wider. Charlie was out of breath and ran after Lilith, only to feel that he was about to suffocate again. His feet were also filled with lead, and he was gradually unable to walk. However, when he thought of the man who looked like a monster at the lake yesterday morning, although his reason told him that such a thing would not happen again, the fear in his heart The feeling came out involuntarily, forcing him not to stop casually. On the one hand, his physical strength was exhausted, and on the other hand, he was frightened and urged him not to stop. Even for a short while, he felt that he would encounter something strange at any time.He ran desperately, looking at Lilith who was about to disappear at the corner in front of him, wanting to cry without tears.

However, the figure in front of him did not disappear around the corner, and even as he ran hard, the distance between him and Lilith began to shrink strangely.He was overjoyed, took a breath, and ran towards Lilith as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

Lilith was running leisurely in front, and when she heard the heavy footsteps coming from behind, and the heavy panting that sounded like a broken blower, she didn't look back, but the corners of her mouth slowly curled up.

Charlie finally caught up. He gasped for breath and smiled at Lilith with sweat on his face. I have to say that with his current state and dignity, that smile looked uglier than crying.

However, Lilith was still pleased by his appearance at the moment, she nodded to him and smiled.

Seeing Lilith's smile, Charlie immediately became more energetic. However, he was exhausted. He had exhausted all his strength in chasing Lilith just now, so he said weakly: "I can't run anymore!" His waist stopped abruptly.

Lilith looked back at him, raised her eyebrows slightly, turned around and walked towards him, reached out and grabbed his arm, lifted him lightly, and led him forward.

"I... really can't run anymore!" Charlie said while panting and waving his hands.

"You don't know that you can't stop immediately after running?" Lilith squinted at Charlie who was panting as if he was about to die at any moment, "Follow me!" After finishing speaking, she forced him to walk back along the lake.

Charlie was powerless to resist, and was dragged back by Lilith.

Lilith took him back to the gate of Nemo Manor, let go of his arm, looked at him for a while without saying a word, and said, "Your physique is too poor, you get up 5 kilometers every day."

Charlie looked up, sweat dripping down his face like rain, he wiped it with his hand, looked at Lilith, nodded, and said seriously: "I can definitely do it!"

Lilith didn't say anything else, just nodded casually, turned around and entered the room, but as soon as she walked into the living room, she saw Rosen sitting in the living room with a serious face, and when Lilith came in, he seemed to want to smile at her , Immediately remembered something, immediately put away that faint smile, and said to her: "The man in the basement is gone!"

Lilith hummed.

"That's it?" Rosen looked at her, hesitating to speak.

"He didn't come to kill you." Lilith said succinctly, seeing his surprised expression, she twitched her lips, "Don't worry."

"So, you let him go?" Rosen stood up suddenly, and said a little out of control, "Why do you say that he didn't come to kill me?"

Lilith looked at him strangely, "Do you know who he is?"

"Who is he?" Rosen asked immediately.

Lilith looked at him and said impatiently, "He's a mercenary."

"You told me this yesterday!" Rosen said impatiently, "You have to tell me clearly, besides being a mercenary, why didn't he come to kill me!"

"Because you are not worth killing!" Lilith didn't want to get too entangled with Rosen on this kind of issue, in her view it was completely unnecessary.

Rosen was silent for a moment, and his mood suddenly calmed down. He stared at Lilith for a long time, and said, "Lilith, I saw everything last night."

Lilith looked back at him, and gave a faint oh.

Rosen suddenly fell into the sofa like a deflated balloon. He didn't expect such a reaction, which made him suddenly feel empty and a little at a loss. However, he quickly realized that a girl like Lilith , facing him revealing the truth, she would not panic. If she panicked like an ordinary girl, then she would not be Lilith.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to rest his forehead, pressed his temple a few times, and then looked up at Lilith.

Lilith stared at him calmly, and when he raised his head and looked at her, she smiled and said, "Since you saw it, you should know why I let him go, right?"

Rosen nodded silently.

"Although I don't understand why you are so excited, I hope you can trust me." Lilith looked at him seriously, "Since I work for you, your safety is my top priority, and I will not let you be harmed." any harm."

Rosen looked at Lilith, his lips twitched, but he didn't say anything. He silently looked away, with a look of sadness in his eyes.

Finally recovering from his breath, Charlie walked in from the outside and saw Lilith standing in front of his uncle. Before he had time to be surprised that he got up so early, he saw his uncle stand up suddenly, turn around and walk upstairs.He wiped the sweat off his chin, walked up to Lilith, and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Lilith glanced at him, went upstairs without saying a word.
