[Zhongyingmei] The number one black powder

"Boss, you haven't heard from us for the past few days. We thought you were bewildered by Stark's beauty, and you were ready to turn to the light." Bucky put both feet on the desk, and turned with a chair leg with extremely delicate balance. He was holding a circle, holding a potato chip in his hand and chewing.

Half a month later, Veronica finally contacted him.During this period of time, Bucky was the second in command of the organization, and the temporary leader could do whatever he wanted. From time to time, the girl from the R&D department would beat up the rookie of the Special Forces, improve the food in the cafeteria, and live a good life. Not only did he not get out of the basket, he even felt that he had quite a talent for leadership.

[How to speak. 】Veronica on the other end of the communication scolded him angrily【What is abandoning the dark and turning to the bright? Who is the dark?Our Hydra is a serious organization, a serious taxpayer, for the well-being of all mankind, okay! 】

Bucky was so frightened that half of the potato chips fell out of his mouth on the spot. He thought about it, and in all fairness, he definitely didn't believe what the Red Skull said.But Veronica is not German, she is not even from a Germanic nation, so when she said this seriously——

"Boss, don't tell me, I really want to believe it!"

This sentence made Veronica so angry that she was silent for a while before she said: [...Why is your political consciousness so poor, Captain Hydra? 】

Bucky: "Isn't Captain Hydra just for Hydra?"

[Is Captain America only for the United States? ! ] Veronica was angry.

Bucky thought about it for a while, and his square jaw tightened when he was young, and he spoke of freedom with righteous words on his face.I couldn't help but wiped my face, "Fuck, that's really the case." At the same time, I was frustrated that I didn't know Captain America as well as a Hydra girl.

[Learn a bit, he is still an art student. 】

In that case, Bucky disagrees. He is bound to win back the city and defend Fa Xiao's belief, "Boss, you are discriminating against art."

[How can I discriminate against art? I don’t discriminate against art at all. Don’t you know that I like Picasso very much? He makes me feel that I’m not the only one who can’t understand art. 】

Bucky: ...

This topic was directly chatted to death, the two of them were silent for a while, and then Bucky managed to find a new topic: "Boss, when are you coming back?"

[Uh...] This might not be a good topic either, because Veronica hesitated.

So Bucky quickly added: "It's okay, we're not in a hurry, take your time." It's best not to come back!When I get tired of eating in the cafeteria, I will take all the funds and abscond back to S.H.I.E.L.D.

Facts have proved that mental patients have wide-ranging thinking. I don’t know why Veronica’s intuition just hit Bucky’s point perfectly. She asked vigilantly: [Why do you say that?Are you trying to abscond with the money? 】

Bucky: "...I'm not me without you, don't get me wrong."

"Do you want some more eggs?" The voice close to her ear dragged Veronica out of the channel she was chatting with Bucky in her head.She quickly turned her head to the source of the sound, and Susan, who was sitting next to her, gave her a comforting smile.

"I want some more." When Veronica wandered around, Tony interjected without losing the opportunity.

"Honey?" Susan looked up at her husband sitting opposite with a smile.

Reed, who buried his head in eating at the table, didn't look up at the moment, but stretched his arms and went directly to the stove to fill a plate of scrambled eggs and bring them to the table.

"Thanks." Tony took it and said casually.

They are now having dinner at the home of the Fantastic Four, at Susan's kind invitation.

Having breakfast with the Avengers every day was weird enough, and now that the scope has expanded to include the Fantastic Four, Veronica wonders if at some point she'll be at the same table as Superman and Batman.

And the atmosphere at the table was quite awkward, only Susan and Reed were involved. Su was very friendly to the guests, but Reed was not. In the future, apart from exchanging a few words with my wife, I bowed my head and focused on the bowl without saying a word.

If conditions permit, Veronica would like to hear about Mister Fantastic's latest research project...

【Speaking of which, boss, do you think Red Skull is dead? ] Bucky asked coldly at this time.

Veronica's fork fell to the ground with a bang, which caught the attention of Su and Tony.

【Why do you ask? 】Veronica ignored them, she bent down and casually looked for the fork, while asking back in her mind.

[That is, just ask?In our line of work... there is always the obsessive-compulsive disorder of living and dying. ] Bucky answered her, sounding quite relaxed.

【...I don't think so. 】Veronica hesitated for a while and then answered honestly. She also agreed to see people alive and dead. Moreover, there are various protective facilities in Hydra's base. A bomb or bomb may not be enough. What about him [but there is no clear news that he is still alive. ] But Veronica just had a feeling that he must still be alive.

[This is a bit creepy. ] Bucky commented.

At the same time, a hand reached under the table, reached the fallen fork before Veronica, and then retracted the hand.Veronica also straightened up and inadvertently looked at the person opposite.With just one glance, Reed quickly turned his head away, stood up from the table and said, "I'm going back to the lab to see how the simulation is running."

"Perhaps you can take Miss Violet to visit." Susan suggested. "I heard that she has some opinions on unified field theory, right?" She turned to another person who had been silent.

Tony subconsciously sat up straight, regained his energy, and replied, "Yes, you really should take a look at that lightsaber. Her high-temperature plasma confinement field technology is far beyond the world."

Veronica noticed that for a split second, Reed opened his mouth as if to retort, but he looked at Tony and then at Susan, swallowed his words and nodded in agreement "Come on. "

Later in the day, Veronica and Tony sat at a whiteboard with Reed in his lab discussing how to guide the superfluid helium quantum vortices to flow as they intended.Then Tony pinches the bridge of his nose and says if they're going to get this done today, they'd better get the coffee done first.

The matter should have been brought up by Richards, the host, but Tony's exact words were 'I'd rather do it myself than try Reed's specialty roasted coffee grounds flavored coffee paste. '

Therefore, only Veronica and Reed were left in the laboratory for the time being, and the whole space was embarrassingly quiet.

Veronica watched Reed's long neck weaving among the wire-crissed equipment, looking at this monitor for a while, then across the room to adjust the other side's reading, but not her.In the end she decided it was up to her to speak.

"You don't like me," said Veronica, and it was so obvious that she said it with certainty.

"This statement is a bit inappropriate." Fortunately, Reed didn't completely ignore her. Although he still didn't look at her, he replied, "I have a wife and you have a boyfriend, so your statement is quite unreasonable."

"But you just don't like me." Veronica was sure that the instrument behind her was strong enough, so she leaned on it. She hesitated for a while observing the busy movement in Reed's hands, and then she knew that she had guessed the right direction. Continue to say meaningfully, "Su hopes that we can have a good talk and reach a consensus on this issue."

Usually Reed's preferences have nothing to do with Veronica, they don't know each other at all.But Sue and Tony seemed to want them to communicate, so she could only guess one possibility, between Reed and her, there was some connection between them that needed attention.

"..." All of Reed's movements stopped, and he retracted all parts of his body to their normal proportions, which made him look like a scientist rather than a superhuman. His eyes were on Veronie Ka looked around and finally couldn't meet Veronica's eyes "Consensus? Honestly, I don't know what to think, and I don't know what they want me to think. When Sue suddenly told me that she was pregnant I am very happy when we have an extra little life in our family, I can accept it... But someone suddenly told me that there is a female adult cloned from my genes, how can I accept this?"

When Veronica heard Reed's last words, she didn't understand him for a moment.Then in the next second, she connected all the clues together, the conversations she had listened to between Tony Banner and Pim, and Su's probing questions.Then she was hit by the truth and her eyes went black, and she felt the world spinning. She stretched her hand back and leaned firmly on the instrument behind her to avoid falling to the ground.

Among the [-] guesses, the only thing she didn't think of was such a possibility.

——You should know.

A voice whispered in Veronica's heart.You are a product of genetic engineering, what other genetic sample could make you so smart?There are only a few super-geniuses in the world, and they can be counted on one's fingers. If it is not this genius, it will be another one.

"Are you okay?" Veronica must have looked bad, because even Reed showed concern.

Veronica took a deep breath and tried to stabilize herself so that she wouldn't tremble so badly, but when she spoke, her voice was still trembling, "I don't know." God, she didn't know what to do Do, this is something she has never considered, blood relationship, genes and family... What's the situation now?What did Tony want her to achieve by bringing her here?But Richards clearly didn't want this.

Her presence is embarrassing for everyone now.

Veronica thought, opening her mouth to apologize.But the scene in front of her was distorted, and it paused like a cassette, and then Reed's face in front of her changed into the red skull sitting in front of her along with the background.
