The Third Winter Soldier

Nemo Group, entrance of Rosen's office.

Lilith stood against the wall by the door, with her hands seemingly respectful in front of her body, her eyes silently inspecting every Nemo employee who entered and exited Rosen's office.People who come in and out of here know that this is Rosen's bodyguard, and they will look at her with curiosity, but they will always turn their eyes away quickly after they meet Lilith's serious gaze, her face is expressionless. The scrutiny is very uncomfortable.

Rosen sat inside and took a document handed by the secretary, looked up and watched him leave, and then took a look at Lilith standing at the door of the office through the opening and closing of the door. After the fierce dispute in the morning, Lilith followed him When he arrived at the company, he didn't follow him into the office as usual, but chose to stand at the door. Even though he asked her to come in several times, Lilith didn't listen to him, but replaced her answer with silence, and he frowned slightly , watching Lilith's figure disappear with the automatic closing of the office door, after a long while, his eyes returned to the computer in front of him, a chat software on the computer screen reminded him that he had new information, he clicked to check it, and a line popped out Word: "One o'clock in the afternoon, the pier."

He quickly typed a word on the keyboard with his fingers: "OK!" Then, the profile picture of the person he was chatting with darkened. He glanced at the time, and it was not far from one o'clock in the afternoon. He calculated the distance in his mind, From the company to the pier designated by the other party, we must set off now.Thinking of this, Rosen rubbed his eyes wearily, sighed heavily, stood up, picked up the phone and the coat hanging in the cloakroom, opened the door and went out.

Lilith heard the sound of the door, turned her head to look at the door, and saw Rosen walking out with a tired face, and said to her, "Come out with me." She nodded and silently followed him to the elevator.

After the two entered the elevator, Rosen put on his coat slowly, then lowered his head and fiddled with his phone for a while. He didn't stop fiddling with his phone until the elevator reached the underground garage, and strode towards his car.

Lilith raised her eyebrows slightly. Seeing his seemingly urgent pace, she also quickened her pace to follow, and opened the car door for him. Unexpectedly, he stretched out his hand to her and said, "Give me the key, and I'll drive it! You go to the co-pilot. "

Upon hearing this, Lilith handed him the keys immediately, then walked to the other side of the car, opened the co-pilot and got in, turned to look at Rosen who was about to start the car, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Rosen held the steering wheel, turned his head to look behind the car, reversed the car not very skillfully, and didn't answer her.

Lilith frowned slightly, and stopped asking.

Rosen reversed the car out of the garage, drove the car out, glanced at Lilith's calm face while driving, and said, "Why didn't you ask?"

"I'm just a bodyguard, Mr. Nemo." Lilith replied.

"You have the right to know, don't you?" Rosen lowered his voice, "This is your right!"

"No, it's not!" Lilith said calmly, "I'm responsible for your safety, but I can't interfere with you. No matter where you go, I will follow."

Rosen glanced at Lilith, he saw the indifference on her face, he turned his eyes sharply to stare at the front, and said, "Maybe you should ask! Because," he paused, said, "I'm The place you go will make you suffer, and if it is serious, you may die."

Lilith smiled slightly, squinted at him, and said, "Do you think I'll just sit and wait?"

"No, you won't!" Rosen laughed at himself, "Maybe you'll let me die!"

"I'm your bodyguard, Mr. Nemo!" Lilith said lightly.

The corner of Rosen's mouth twitched slightly, his mood was as complicated as the unsmooth traffic situation in front of him, he subconsciously clenched the steering wheel, his eyes flickered slightly.

Seeing that he stopped talking, Lilith put the energy allocated to talking to him back into vigilance. She silently looked out the window, paying attention to the surrounding environment, and maintained a high degree of vigilance.She will not make stupid mistakes again, and she will try her best to correct the mistakes she has made. As for Rosen's feelings for her, she lowered her eyes slightly, and has no complete solution for the time being, but she will solve it as soon as possible, and then leave .

Rosen drove to the appointed pier, and he said to Lilith: "You sit in the car, don't get out!" Then he got out of the car.He stood by the car and looked around, then sent a message to the person he contacted with his mobile phone. After waiting for about 5 minutes, he received a new prompt on his mobile phone, "Go straight to the container."

"Okay, I'm bringing my girlfriend, can she come with me?" Rosen replied.

"You are alone, otherwise the transaction will be cancelled." The other party replied.

Rosen stared at the message for a few seconds, then turned his head to look at Lilith in the car. The other party asked him to go to the appointment alone. He thought about it calmly, then walked slowly to the window on Lilith's side, looked at her and said: " I'm going to go to the pile of containers now, you can follow up later, don't let anyone find out! Is that okay?"

Lilith nodded.

There was a hint of hesitation in Rosen's eyes.

Lilith stared at him and said, "Go!"

Rosen put away his phone, thinking about something, the hesitation on his face slowly dissipated, replaced by a calmness beyond Lilith's expectations, he nodded at her slightly, turned and walked towards the container tens of meters away.

Lilith stared at Rosen silently. He walked slowly to the container, looked down at the phone for a while, and then entered the container pile to the left.She didn't get out of the car immediately to follow, but quietly observed the situation near the pier. After confirming that there was no one hiding and watching, she opened the car door and walked in the direction Rosen left in a calm manner.

At this moment, Rosen was walking through the maze-like narrow aisle according to the other party's instructions, and found the red container with the word Odyssey mentioned in the message. He looked up at the huge container in front of him, walked around to the door of the container, and found It was slightly open, but he suddenly became frightened and didn't dare to enter, typing quickly with his fingers: "I'm here, but where are you? Don't play tricks!"

There was no response from the other party.

Rosen waited for a while and sighed helplessly. It seemed that he had to enter the container. He had to reach out and open the door of the container. As the door opened, the light illuminated the interior of the container. However, Rosen didn't see the person he wanted to see, it was empty inside, and he lowered his shoulders in disappointment.

However, what he didn't know was that when he asked that the other party had to enter the container, the person he contacted was following Lilith, and the vibration of his phone caused by his message made Lilith, who had extraordinary hearing, turn around instantly. Looking behind, the long aisle between the containers was empty, but the vibration made her walk back without hesitation. After walking a few steps, she turned sideways sensitively to avoid the corner of a container. A figure pounced from that corner.

.......................................

The man seemed to have expected that the pounce might not be effective, and he punched Lilith in the next second. Lilith blocked his attack with her arms, looked up, and couldn't help laughing out loud, saying: "Carl! Is it you that Rosenimo wants to see?"

Karl Barton remained silent, and called her again. Lilith knew that there was no second choice for the person who appeared at this place. From Carl's understanding, this guy always likes to work part-time occasionally and do some unexpected small businesses, so there is no doubt that he is the one who met Rosen here.She played tricks with him familiarly, and said leisurely, "I didn't expect you to be doing such a small business now."

Carl still didn't speak, but his brows slowly gathered closer and closer to the center of his brows as he fought with Lilith. She was so familiar with his fighting style and attack methods, as if... No, it's impossible!He silently denied that ridiculous answer in his heart. The petite girl in front of him and the Fiona he knew were simply the South Pole and the North Pole of the earth. They had no similarities at all, at least, in appearance , However, her attack and attack habits are the same as Fiona's, she likes to talk about things, and what is even more terrifying is the familiarity of her words...

He slammed his fist hard at her, no, Fiona is dead!It was he who cremated her with his own hands.

"In my opinion, your fighting skills have regressed, Carl!" Lilith raised her eyebrows, kicked his hand away, and rolled over to the ground, "Hey, brat, do you want to continue fighting?"

Carl took a breath, sneered, and said, "It seems that the mission issued by Rosen Nemo is totally fake."

Lilith smiled, brushed away a strand of hair hanging from her face, and said, "Rozen Nemo? What mission did he issue?"

"Don't you know?" Carl said sarcastically, "Very good, your acting skills are good, it's a pity not to be an actor!"

"Of course, my acting skills have always been better than yours, haven't I? Carl, your performance in the training camp is not very good!" Lilith smiled, "What task did Rosen release?"

"You're his girlfriend, don't you know?" The sarcasm in Carl's tone deepened, "Why don't you explain why you came here! What exactly do you want to do?"

When Lilith heard the title "his girlfriend", the smile on her face disappeared. She stared at Carl and said lightly: "I'm not his girlfriend, I'm his bodyguard, and I don't care about the tasks he issued. I don’t know, so put away your doubts!”

"You don't have any better reason to make me give up my doubts." Carl sneered, "Tell me, what are you trying to find me for?"

Lilith smiled with the corners of her mouth raised, and gave up her defense.

"Silence won't help you!" Cal looked at her, waiting for her to reveal her purpose.

Lilith laughed, shrugged slightly and said, "Silence is a virtue."

Karl was taken aback, the suspicion in his eyes deepened, and he took a step back.

"Before you plan to withdraw, please answer me, what task did Rosen release?" Lilith stared at him, "What is he asking for?"

Karl's mood became disordered because of Lilith's words. The two thoughts of her and not her were repeatedly turning in his mind. As he saw the familiar eyes on her face, it was her thoughts that gradually took over. However, in this world without even gods, how could such a thing happen?impossible!He didn't answer Lilith, turned around and left.

Lilith watched him leave here with her hands on her hips, sighed, and murmured: "It seems that you have been shaken, right? Karl?"
