The Third Winter Soldier

The surroundings are quiet, this bizarre and strange silence, it seems that even the air freezes in an instant.

Lilith slowly faced the direction she came from, and after looking for a long time, her sensitive hearing caught a little sound at this moment. It was a woman's exclamation, and it seemed to be muffled by something before she could speak. Then, Everything is back to normal, except for the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the branches.The exclamation was too brief, so that Lilith couldn't tell who it was, Sienna?Or... Susan.If the exclamation came from Susan, it meant that her plan to "lure the monster" had failed. She looked serious and walked back without hesitation.

Not long after Lilith left, she saw the corpse of a soldier. Immediately afterwards, she saw more corpses of soldiers lined up from the grass to the river bank. Like rotten wood with vitality, they were intentionally placed a few meters apart, and on the other side of the river were the two soldiers whom she had spared from killing just now. They were arranged in a figure-eight shape, no, to be precise , plus the corpses of nearly ten soldiers before, they formed a neat arrow pointing in the direction of the hut in the forest.

damn it!Lilith couldn't help but twitch her brows. After crossing the small river, she quickened her pace. After walking a few steps, she saw a fiery figure in the depths of the woods. It was Sienna. Her hands were tied behind her back and she was hanging under a tree. , the whole person was shaking with the rope, and there were two people standing beside her, two people she knew very well.

Lilith walked towards them speechlessly.

Seeing her, Sienna opened her mouth before those two people, and shouted: "The key is in her hands, as long as you let me go, I will tell you how to use it!"

Lilith walked up to Sienna, saw the panic and maliciousness flashing in her eyes, and said, "Which of you can tell me what's going on now? Rosen?" She glanced at the smiling Rosen* Nemo looked at Carl, who was standing aside in a black suit with his arms folded on his chest.

Rosen smiled, with a gentle look, and said, "Oh, that's what you saw. Mr. Shadow caught the person I wanted to catch."

Lilith raised her eyebrows, looked at Rosen and said, "And then?"

"And then?" Rosen seemed to think for a while, and said, "I wanted to kill this woman directly to avenge Anna, but she told me a secret." He stared at Lilith, "She said there was a The key, with powerful energy, can help you resurrect any character you want, whether it is a god or a monster, or even a human being."

Lilith instantly understood Sienna's intentions. She didn't speak, but just watched Rosen silently. There was a desire for the key in his eyes. No, to be precise, it was the desire to resurrect Anna, so strong and repressed.Sienna would tell Rosen this secret, obviously not only to save her own life, but at the same time, she was also using this method to verify whether the key in Lilith's hand was the real key.

Lilith recalled the malicious look in Sienna's eyes just now, and smiled. How can I put it, if Sienna was smart, she might not be caught by the oriole Rosen at this moment, but she still has some points. quick-witted.Lilith thought, if she guessed correctly, Sienna should be very aware of her relationship with Rosen, and even know Rosen's obsession with her daughter Anna, so Sienna used Rosen to verify the authenticity of the key, and also used the The idea of ​​separating Lilith and Rosen.

"Is what she said true? Lilith?" Rosen looked at her eagerly and asked, "Really, is there really such a magical key that can revive Anna?"

Lilith smiled and said: "Yes, there is indeed such a secret key, but I don't know whether it is really possible to resurrect her so-called, all the ghosts and ghosts you want to resurrect. What I know so far is that the secret key Spoon can resurrect the ancestor of vampire or werewolf."

"Is it...?" Rosen's eyes darkened, and he asked, "Well, anyway, where is it?"

Lilith stared at him and said, "With me, you want it, don't you?"

The corner of Rosen's mouth twitched slightly, showing a wry smile, and said, "Of course, it's obvious, isn't it?"

Lilith nodded, reached into her collar and fumbled bluntly, and slowly pulled out the necklace with the cross pendant from her underwear. The two men reacted with discomfort at the same time.Rosen politely turned his face away slightly, while Carl showed a bit of doubt and entanglement, and looked at Lilith in a daze. There seemed to be another figure in front of him, gorgeous and eye-catching, but different people showed the same expression and behavior , Time after time, more and more doubts formed in front of his eyes, and a sentence floated up in his heart: I am Fiona, do you believe it?

No, don't believe it.Karl shook his head in his heart, he didn't believe it, he would never believe it, but this woman shook his belief time and time again.Perhaps, he should visit Fiona's grave?Could this woman in front of her be Fiona who had plastic surgery?He stared at Lilith, and made what he thought could be explained, the only reason that could explain the similarity between the two. Of course, the premise was that Fiona, who had been buried with his own eyes, was not in the coffin.However, at this moment, he didn't think about it any further. If Fiona's body existed in the coffin, how would he explain how the woman in front of him knew him well, and how similar she was to Fiona.

Lilith was holding the necklace, shaking it casually, glanced at Sienna, and said with a half-smile: "That's what she said."

Rosen hastily stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the necklace, but unexpectedly, Lilith withdrew her hand and looked at him seriously, his hand was empty, and he couldn't help frowning and said, "I just want to see, can't I? "

"Sorry, no!" Lilith shook her head, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Sienna's triumphant smile. "You don't think so in your eyes."

"In my eyes?" Rosen said puzzledly, "I just want to take a look at this. After all, this is a bit different from the magical key I imagined..."

Lilith looked down at the cross necklace wrapped in her hand, and said lightly: "This does not belong to me, but to another person. I just promised to help her keep it, so I'm sorry!"

"Lilith!" Rosen reacted, and he looked at her incredulously, "Do you think I will take it?"

"I think you will not only take her, you will take her too!" Lilith raised her eyebrows and pointed at Sienna, "But..." She stared at Rosen, who showed a look of embarrassment, "Did you think Did she lie to you?"

Rosen was taken aback, and had to say that he hadn't thought about this question, but when Sienna said that there was a magic key that could resurrect everything, he was almost caught completely by the word resurrection, All he could think about was getting the key and resurrecting Anna.He turned to look at Sienna, silent.

Carl snickered.

Lilith glanced at him, and said angrily: "You know it's a trap, but you still let your employer jump into it. You don't plan to mess around, do you?"

Carl's face sank when he heard this, he looked at Lilith and snorted coldly.

Li Lisi laughed nonchalantly, this guy is still not convinced, he clearly sees clearly, but he is watching a good show on the sidelines, just this love of watching liveliness can actually make him have a good reputation in the mercenary circle, Sometimes it's amazing to think about it, at least, Lilith knows that none of the benefactors who hired him gave him bad reviews.However, she thought about it again, those funders spent money to solve the problem, Karl helped them solve the problem, and the funder didn't care about other things.

Sienna giggled and said coquettishly: "Oh, my dear Lilith, how can you say that about your sister, am I like this? We grew up together, what kind of person am I?" , don't you understand?"

Lilith squinted at her, understand?I'm sorry, but she doesn't know her at all. The person who grew up with her and understood her is the real Lilith, and that real Lilith is no longer there.She looked at Sienna mockingly, and said: "You told Rosen about the key to verify whether the key in my hand is real or not, so now are you sure whether this is real or fake?" Dangling the necklace in front of Sienna.

Sienna stared at the cross without blinking, and her desire for the key was exposed as the cross dangled in front of her eyes. She laughed, looked at Lilith, swayed leisurely with the rope, and said: " Hey, did you see it? It looks like you are much smarter than before!"

"Oh, really?" Lilith said flatly, "Now that it's confirmed, do you really want to see Rosen and I fight over this thing?"

Sienna's eyes lit up, she looked at the silent Rosen, and said, "If you want to revive that little girl, it's all up to me to teach you how to use the key, you know?"

Rosen looked at Sienna upon hearing this, but he didn't answer her, his eyes flickered, and he turned to look at Lilith.

"You don't have to look at me. I've made it very clear. The function of this key is not to resurrect humans. It can resurrect the ancestors of vampires and werewolves. However, none of us has tested whether it can resurrect humans. Secondly, , We don’t need to fight over this, we’re not sure if it’s something that can really revive Anna.” Lilith finished speaking calmly and looked at Rosen, “I think you should have noticed that she is sowing discord! "

Rosen looked at the necklace in Lilith's hand uncertainly. After a long silence, he said in a hoarse voice, "Lilith, do you know? I can really do a lot for Anna, and even give my life."

Lilith nodded, but said nothing, waiting for his next words.

Rosen's eyes were fixed on the cross, and he sighed, "When I heard her say that there is such a magic key, I was really, really happy, my heart was beating at full speed, and I even wanted to But if she can help me revive Anna, I don't have to kill her!"

Sienna said with a smile: "Oh, no if, I can help you, really, you have to trust me!"

Rosen ignored her, and slowly raised his eyes. His eyes were filled with pain, the desire to revive Anna, and unspeakable emotions. They were intertwined in his eyes, biting his soul, and finally The silence slowly fell, leaving only a piece of calm, he finally regained his composure, and said, "You are right!"
