Superhero's Physician[Comprehensive]
Chapter 160
The appearance of the Quin-style fighter caused the crowd to wait and see and restlessness. The people looked up and talked about this fighter from S.H.I.E.L.D.
Lin Lan took the dagger from Doug's body and used it to lean on her. She misses the silver flute that Tony made for her all the time, but since the first generation was destroyed, the production of the second generation was only made before Tony left the United States. It's over, and it's still proofreading and testing in the studio on the top floor of the Stark Tower, with Jarvis at the helm.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Doug opened the cabin door at the tail of the Quinjet fighter jet and aimed at the balcony on the 65th floor. "If the captain knows that I threw you down, I will die ugly."
So far, Lin Lan has discovered a very interesting phenomenon, all the agents from the army have the same evaluation of Steve - extremely deterrent.Everyone seems to agree that he is a manic boy who is prone to tantrums and beatings.She has heard a lot of similar words, as if Captain America often waved his powerful arms, and would violently attack anyone if he didn't go his way.
However, her Steve is obviously a very gentle man.
Lin Lan said: "How come, he is reasonable."
"That's for you." Doug moved the fighter as close as possible to the target floor, but there was still a distance of seven or eight meters.
Lin Lan thought, it seems that on weekdays, on the training ground, Steve Rogers is a dignified officer.
Corporal punishment or something.
Doug hoped he hadn't made a mistake by violating the rules, and he was sure he was cooperating with the Avengers in a rescue, if the league's doctors counted as combatants.But he really doesn't believe that Lin Lan can jump from the back of the plane to the opposite balcony. Doug doesn't want to see the girl fall from the 65th floor to the ground, then he will blame himself, even if Lin Lan used A metal rod went through his neck.
When Lin Lan easily jumped to the destination from the cabin, Doug finally understood why she was Tony's younger sister, because she could also fly. As for the passers-by watching below, they also witnessed this scene with their own eyes.
"Old Jia, help me connect with Steve."
"Ok."
Lin Lan thought that Steve would reprimand him as soon as he received his message, just like the time when he accidentally vomited blood when he was practicing.It was a bit serious, but Lin Lan obviously accepted everything from him, even if it was with a caring and reproachful tone, she could speak so beautifully.
Well, Lin Lan felt that it would be impossible for her to live without Steve Rogers by her side. Even now, she would reach a place where she might never return, but as long as she thought of Steve’s support, she felt that No stress.
Her man used to have a temper, because the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. showed awe towards him. However, he never became serious with Lin Lan for more than half a minute before softening.
Today is no exception.
"Lin Lin, I know where you are and what you're going to do, but I don't think you can do anything there. Wait for me to come, I'm almost there, we've locked your location." Steve's voice was urgent but Decisive, not sloppy, "What did you promise me, remember, you only promised me one thing, and it's very important."
"I'm not doing more than I can do." Of course she still remembers, and she always remembers, "Steve, listen to me, I can... I can solve this matter, before that, you have to Find a way to stop anyone from setting foot in this building."
"Impossible, you lied to me, you never did this before." Rather than expressing resentment, he was more nervous than ever, and he could hear the hesitation in Lin Lan's tone, "You should Talk it over with me instead of hijacking a fighter jet."
"You know I've never been an obedient girl." Lin Lan followed the positioning system and walked in the direction of Nick Ferry. Along the way, she saw bombs on the wall, and each bomb had a countdown timer on it, " Steve, do me a favor and stop everyone who tries to come in, including you, when you arrive."
If Lin Lan had been lucky a few minutes ago, maybe Kaden was making alarmist remarks.Well, she didn't think so when she entered the room where the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. was held: "Steve, Parick has evolved the virus. If an outsider comes in, it will immediately cause a reaction. Give me four hours, four hours After that, you can do whatever you want, you can scold me."
"I won't scold you, when have I scolded you?" Steve said helplessly, "Tell me, why is it four hours."
"Because..." Lin Lan was depressed and licked her dry lips, "After four hours, the bombs in the whole building will detonate together."
Lin Lan didn't know how long it took her to calm down the violent fluctuations in her heart at this moment. Maybe it didn't take long, but it just felt like a long time.She only regrets one thing now, she should have stabbed Caden's body a few more times, or directly dismembered him into pieces, instead of letting him sleep so comfortably on the bed.
Nick Ferry is actually no different from being dead, the only difference is whether he is breathing or not.
He was wearing a short-sleeved white hospital gown, his eyes were closed tightly, the eye mask had long since disappeared, and half of his face had been festered so badly.
Nick's two black arms were each pierced into four milky white rubber tubes that connected to the container above his head.An oxygen tube for breathing was inserted into his nostrils, and his slightly swollen abdomen looked strange.That definitely wouldn't be the big belly of a middle-aged man. Director SHIELD has a strong chest and abdomen, and he exercises every inch of his muscles every day.
On top of that, there were faint lights flickering on and off in the bulge, suggesting that something had been put into his belly.Because there are still very obvious suture marks there, and the red surgical thread has not been removed.
what is that?
But Lin Lan didn't think it was a good time to wake up Nick Ferry.
A large number of police and bomb disposal experts have gathered under the building, and the cordon has been pulled to a distance of one kilometer from the surrounding of the building.They evacuated the civilians and took various protective measures, but no one could go in and dismantle the bomb, because they learned from Captain America that the virus inside would cause unprecedented chaos.
The media quickly got the news and rushed to the scene one after another, wanting to report first-hand.
"Lin has been inside for nearly two hours. Don't you need to contact her and ask about the internal situation?" Natasha sat on the side of the building, admiring the bewildered expressions of the police who were busy for some reason.
"If she needs my help, she will take the initiative to find me." Although Steve chooses to believe her, it does not mean that he is really as calm as he seems on the surface. If he can, he wants to rush forward now .
In order to prevent accidents, Barton took the snipers to monitor the situation on the ground and the target in the opposite building.
"I always thought that if one day Lin knew that I killed her father, she would be shocked, or wanted to kill me for revenge." Natasha tried to divert Steve's attention and ease his tense face, "Guess what, the girl just complained that I shouldn't have kept her secret for so long."
"I think, I'm afraid she already knew." Steve looked at her and said.
"I'm really surprised that you came to such a conclusion." Her surprise did not show a completely incomprehensible stupid look, but more doubts, "Can you reveal some details?"
"Lin Lan may be unhappy about this for a few days." Steve laughed, his white teeth did not have a trace of dirt, his smile was real, and he loved his lover from the bottom of his heart, "in the hippocampal area of her brain There was a wire, something like a video device, and she recorded everything that happened around her through her eyes, including the time Agent Lin was attacked."
Natasha said: "It seems that her super memory came from this way."
"Tony told me about this, but Lin Lan didn't know about it, because it doesn't matter what she is to me."
"When did you and Tony get so close?"
"When I first planned to propose."
Natasha smiled and said, "I guess he told you to make you retreat."
Steve shrugged. "He knew I wouldn't."
"Then, do you want to tell Tony what happened today?" Natasha said, "After all, they are brother and sister, and Tony should know what his sister is going through."
"Let's tell him after Lin Lin comes out. I hope these media don't wantonly report and reveal too much."
"Captain." Natasha's voice was heavy, "You know, if she fails..."
"It will work, she has never failed in her field, she is experienced and composed."
Faced with Steve's self-confidence, Natasha was not so optimistic: "I don't understand, she is still a child, how can you go down to the forest to do such a dangerous thing?" Black Widow felt that she should know the captain very well. , this American soldier who puts caring for others first in everything, is so delicate that sometimes even she can't stand it, "If Lin can't succeed, do you know what it means? She won't choose to escape alone, she will stay there ,You know."
Steve obviously understood this very well, and Natasha could also see that he was deeply entangled in his heart, but he still let Lin Lan put himself in the danger of narrowly dying.That's right, Natasha admitted that Lin Lan had many advantages, but she was still just a child, and she shouldn't bear burdens that didn't belong to her.
"She's not a child anymore," Steve said.
"Yes, she has reached the age of legal responsibility, but she is still a child, to you and me."
"As I said, she is no longer a child." How could Steve not know that once Lin Lan could not bring Nick out within a limited time, she would not be a deserter alone, "Not from the beginning."
Tony might hate him, no, he definitely would.Because Steve not only failed to protect Iron Man's sister, but also failed to let the siblings say goodbye at the last moment.
"Captain, what exactly do you want to say?" Natasha heard some clues.
"I'll call Tony first."
Two full hours of uninterrupted healing, the time has never passed so fast like now, as if what just passed was not two hours, but two minutes.
The festering on Nick Ferry's face gradually improved, and most of the virus in his blood dissipated. Lin Lan felt a little tired after waking him up.She couldn't help but think, fortunately, she had recovered ten levels of skill, otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to suck out so many viruses from his body at once.
Nick's blood is filled with at least ten kinds of poisonous bacteria. If he is not unconscious, he will definitely be in pain like those living test subjects.
The solutions in those tubes were virus-stabilizing drugs and nutrients that allowed Nick to survive long enough without eating, drinking, or excreting.However, if Lin Lan hadn't known these viruses very well and had purified them herself, she would not have been able to get rid of them within two hours.
But now, she encountered a very difficult problem, so that Lin Lan had to wake up Nick: "Mr. Ferry, how do you feel?"
When Nick Ferry woke up, he felt dizzy. He was top-heavy, and his body leaning on the chair was a little out of control.But soon, he realized where he was now and what he had experienced before he fell into a coma.
"It's you?" The deep voice was weak, and Nick moved his arms. "I didn't expect that the person I met before I died would be you."
Lin Lan pressed the acupuncture points on his head, causing Nick to wake up quickly: "Let's not talk about the rest, now there is a problem."
"I have a bomb detonator in my stomach, and two tubes of virus stock solution are also in the detonator." Nick clearly understood what happened to him.
The virus contained in the detonator was not an ordinary virus. It was specially developed by Kadeng using Lin Lan's blood and cells. It could also be said that it was a poison against Lin Lan, and it was of course fatal to ordinary people.
Once the detonator's time is over, the two tubes of virus will be injected directly into Nick's blood, and then, the high temperature after the explosion will cause the virus to spread rapidly.
Lin Lan can purify viruses, no matter how powerful they are, but it takes time for new viruses to develop antibodies, and it is clear that Death has not given them enough time.
"Yes, that's right, that's the situation." She didn't say anything, but the other party was able to explain it, which made Lin Lan stunned for a few seconds before continuing, "Can you stop the timing of the detonator?" ?”
Lin Lan discovered this black detonator hidden in his stomach when he was forcing the poison for Nick, which was about the size of an adult's fist.After [-] days of fusion, its edges have been firmly attached to the internal organs, and it cannot be removed without a professional doctor's operation.
When the time is up, the detonator sends a detonation signal to all bombs.
"Did you bring a knife?"
Nick had a lot of doubts in his heart, such as why Lin Lan came to rescue him, because the girl must have known what he had done.Nick knew that the video was a trap set by the enemy, but he was still willing to take risks to face the threat of evil forces.
He took the risk not because he was afraid that what he had done would be exposed, after all, it was not his fault.
It's just that Lin Lan was plotted against again and again. As a person who knew the truth, she had already taken precautions.He thought it was necessary for him to do something for Lin Lan. Anyway, Nick still hoped that the girl could live a normal life and not be influenced by evil.
It was beyond his expectation to make himself like this, Nick thought he could do it.
It seemed that Carden Parick regarded him as his last card.
"Bring it." Lin Lan took out the dagger that Doug gave her, or it could be said that she snatched it away.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. products? Then I'm relieved." He let out a heavy breath from his mouth, "Facing the place where the detonator is, dig it out, be careful not to touch those leads. Then hand it over to the To dismantling experts. Don't worry, as long as this thing comes out of my body, it won't react with others. I guess you can guarantee that it will not be spilled when it is brought to the vacuum chamber, right?"
It seems that when Caden was torturing him, he revealed a lot of information very frankly.
"Can you dismantle it yourself?" Lin Lan doesn't know how to perform such a complicated operation. Besides, she doesn't have professional surgical tools. "I haven't learned how to do surgery, and I can't do it alone. Dismantle it to ensure that the bomb on the floor will not explode. Then I will take the virus out of you, and after I go out, I will find a doctor to remove this thing."
"I want you to dig it out directly, not to do any surgery."
"No, the device has been completely integrated with your internal organs. I can't pick it out bit by bit. Moreover, without anesthetics, you can't hold on."
Nick closed his eyes, showing a very tired look: "Just dig that pile up."
"Have you been sleepy for half a month? If you dig them all out, you'll die." When the words fell, she was startled suddenly, "Could it be you!"
"Yes." Nick didn't even think about getting out of here alive, "Okay, let's do it, I hope you move fast enough, so that I will suffer less. Or, you can kill me first, so I don't have to watch Someone was gouging my stomach."
"Are you kidding me?" Lin Lan felt dumbfounded, "I'm here to save you, not to kill you. What do you think of me? Do you think I'll take revenge?"
"Since you know what I have done to you, you don't have to show mercy. I really wanted to kill you back then. This is an indisputable fact. And I did send someone to monitor you for 17 years. Hatred is justified."
"Fuck you." Lin Lan said sullenly, "I overthrew so many people who robbed your fighter plane, and flew from nowhere for five hours to finally get here. I don't care about passers-by watching Jumped from the plane to the 65th floor, but you told me to kill you, is there something wrong with your brain, or is there something wrong with my mind?"
"The design of this device is very complicated, and I'm afraid I can't dismantle it." Nick may be completely moved, and because of this, he doesn't want Lin Lan to take any risks for it, "Okay, let's do it, bomb disposal experts are definitely better I can do it."
"If you don't try it, how will you know? Anyway, your stomach will be broken. Try it. We still have time, two hours."
Nick eventually agreed with her, but also said he had to be eviscerated 10 minutes earlier and leave with the device.
The design of the detonating device and the virus stock solution is quite ingenious. Once the stock solution is taken away, the blasting device will be triggered immediately.If an outsider enters the building, the raw liquid will react immediately and be injected into Nick's body. Once the pressure of the raw liquid is lost, the bomb will also explode.
Therefore, if the detonator is not stopped, it will be dead anyway.
Time passed by, and it took Lin Lan nearly 10 minutes to cut Nick's flesh with a dagger. Although she paralyzed her upper body for him, the sound of cutting flesh and the blood continuously flowing from the wound, All of which make the parties extremely uncomfortable.
Moreover, because she was afraid of touching the fuse of the bomb, Lin Lan was very careful when she moved the knife with her hand.
"Okay." Lin Lan placed a piece of glass with excellent reflective effect in front of Nick, "Let's start, tell me how to do it."
Although Nick is not a bomb disposal expert, he is no worse than a professional. He is sweating profusely at this moment. Facing his internal organs that are still twitching slightly, he first collected himself and then started to work.
The process of dismantling the bomb was fairly smooth, although Lin Lan and Nick did it with the determination to die every time they cut a thread short or dropped a screw.But if Director SHIELD hadn't had absolute confidence, he wouldn't have gambled with Lin Lan's life. Although the progress was slow, it was steady.
Nick's eyes have blurred so much over time that it takes him a few minutes each time he glances at the reflection in the glass before he is sure: "Okay, those last two wires are critical, let me rest a little bit 1 minute."
With the last 15 minutes left, judging from the current trend, they should be able to succeed.
"You have learned a lot." Nick said suddenly, "I remember that when you first came to the United States, you didn't even know how to use a computer, and you rejected technological products."
Lin Lan thought he was trying to relieve his tension, so he replied: "People will improve, and technology changes life."
It took a long time before Nick Ferry opened his eyes, which were out of focus: "I'm sorry, kid."
"It's scary to hear your apology." Lin Lan said with a smile, "Actually, I already knew that there was something wrong with my body. You just don't want Agent Lin to ruin your life for dangerous goods."
"It seems that you really know everything." He glanced out the window, the sun was just right, "You are better than your father, and you are upright."
Lin Lan shrugged: "Actually, I don't really have any feelings for him, and I don't have any impression, so I won't be very happy when you say that. But, I guess, Mr. Ferry will never spy on me again. Me, have I even bugged my house?"
"Sorry." He twitched the corner of his mouth with a wry smile, "I won't do this again."
"Actually, I'm not really Lin Lan." She said, "I also concealed something, so it's evened out."
"Aren't you really Lin Lan? I don't quite understand."
"Let's talk about it after you get out, but don't think about being a spy right away. Tony and Steve both know it. They can accept it. I hope you can too."
Nick glanced at the electronic timer: "Let's talk now, time is running out."
"How could it be?" Lin Lan smiled, "After you go out, take care of your body, I can talk slowly."
"It's a pity, kid." Nick finally sighed, and said in an almost desperate tone, "I can't dismantle it."
At this moment, Lin Lan's mind went blank, and she let out a humming sound.She didn't know what else to say at this moment, she just felt suffocating as if the air in the whole room had been sucked out.
"W-why? There are two wires left here, we have a one-in-two chance, don't we?" She found her voice trembling.
"Those two threads are the same color, which means..." He swallowed, "Parik is teasing us."
"There must be another way!"
"Eviscerate me, take it out, and get all of you out of this place."
Lin Lan glanced at the timer with only 13 minutes left, then looked at Nick Ferry's eyes eagerly wishing her to leave, and suddenly smiled slightly.
She turned on the communicator and was soon connected to Steve's headset.
"Lin Lin!" He could hear that he was extremely anxious, but Steve tried his best to restrain himself, "How is your side, do you need any help from us? Time...is running out."
"Yes, time is running out, so you go first." Lin Lan paused for a long time before saying, "We will come later."
"Failed, right?" Steve sometimes wondered about it, he could always understand the true meaning of Lin Lan's expression at the first moment, "It's okay, I'll come up now, you stay there and don't go anywhere .”
"No!" Lin Lan said loudly, "I don't want to see you, let's break up, I don't love you anymore, the person who brought you, get out of here, as far away as possible!"
"Lin Lan, what are you doing!" Nick Ferry looked at her incredulously, "Give me the knife, if you can't do it, I'll do it myself!"
"Shut up!" Lin Lan yelled, "Let me speak clearly with my ex-boyfriend!"
"You want to get rid of me, it's impossible, you can't get rid of me, my speed is faster than you, and my stamina is better than yours." Steve said as he hurried towards the door of the building.
"Steve, please, don't come in!" Lin Lan took a deep breath, "As soon as you step into this building, the virus will spread immediately, and we are all played by Parick."
"If the bomb goes off, the virus will spread as well. It doesn't make any difference." But he stopped. "There must be another way."
"Yes, I'll drink them so the virus doesn't leak elsewhere."
"What will you do?"
"Just like that woman named Azhi."
Once she drank all of it into her stomach, Lin Lan's body would be quickly corroded and infected by the virus. She could only dilute them with all her strength, like being poisoned by a poison that had no antidote, and she couldn't force it out.
"Don't do it," Steve said almost pleadingly, "We still have time."
Everyone can hear their conversation, but no one interrupts it. Unless someone can give the best of both worlds, otherwise, every word they say is to disturb the farewell between the lovers.
"It will take me some time to dilute everything. If I don't do this, more people will die. Now there are 10 minutes left, maybe just right." There was a silence on the other side of the communication, so Lin Lan continued, " Steve, it's my choice, you won't be mad at me, will you?"
Before Lin Lan made such a decision, she actually struggled. She thought that she could ignore Nick Ferry's life and do her best when the virus broke out. A vision of the end of the world.
But in the end, she found that it was impossible for her to walk out of the building alone with peace of mind.
But at least, in this life, my own death can be exchanged for the lives of countless people, and that is worth it.
Steve suddenly remembered that he had said the same thing to Peggy when he flew the plane into the Arctic Ocean 70 years ago, and he could finally understand Peggy's helpless despair and sadness at that time.Just like him now, this feeling is even colder than when the plane hit the ice and the sea water poured into the cabin in an instant.
"I won't be angry with you." Steve raised his head, as if he could see the girl on the 65th floor at a glance, "Lin Lin, actually, I've always wanted to ask you a question."
"what?"
Steve finally stopped hesitating: "Will you marry me?"
Tears welled up in Lin Lan's eyes, and she didn't know how to answer for a while, if it wasn't for the time slipping away to stimulate her brain nerves, Lin Lan might be dizzy with happiness.
"I already, already dumped you, just now." I didn't expect that I would say such words after a long time of deliberation.
"I know." Steve said indifferently, "So, you can stop being my girlfriend and be my wife, would you like to?"
Even though Natasha and Barton have seen countless life and death in their lives, they couldn't help but be moved by the conversation between the two.
"Yes." Lin Lan replied with a smile, "I am willing."
Lin Lan took the dagger from Doug's body and used it to lean on her. She misses the silver flute that Tony made for her all the time, but since the first generation was destroyed, the production of the second generation was only made before Tony left the United States. It's over, and it's still proofreading and testing in the studio on the top floor of the Stark Tower, with Jarvis at the helm.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Doug opened the cabin door at the tail of the Quinjet fighter jet and aimed at the balcony on the 65th floor. "If the captain knows that I threw you down, I will die ugly."
So far, Lin Lan has discovered a very interesting phenomenon, all the agents from the army have the same evaluation of Steve - extremely deterrent.Everyone seems to agree that he is a manic boy who is prone to tantrums and beatings.She has heard a lot of similar words, as if Captain America often waved his powerful arms, and would violently attack anyone if he didn't go his way.
However, her Steve is obviously a very gentle man.

"That's for you." Doug moved the fighter as close as possible to the target floor, but there was still a distance of seven or eight meters.

Corporal punishment or something.
Doug hoped he hadn't made a mistake by violating the rules, and he was sure he was cooperating with the Avengers in a rescue, if the league's doctors counted as combatants.But he really doesn't believe that Lin Lan can jump from the back of the plane to the opposite balcony. Doug doesn't want to see the girl fall from the 65th floor to the ground, then he will blame himself, even if Lin Lan used A metal rod went through his neck.
When Lin Lan easily jumped to the destination from the cabin, Doug finally understood why she was Tony's younger sister, because she could also fly. As for the passers-by watching below, they also witnessed this scene with their own eyes.
"Old Jia, help me connect with Steve."

Lin Lan thought that Steve would reprimand him as soon as he received his message, just like the time when he accidentally vomited blood when he was practicing.It was a bit serious, but Lin Lan obviously accepted everything from him, even if it was with a caring and reproachful tone, she could speak so beautifully.
Well, Lin Lan felt that it would be impossible for her to live without Steve Rogers by her side. Even now, she would reach a place where she might never return, but as long as she thought of Steve’s support, she felt that No stress.
Her man used to have a temper, because the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. showed awe towards him. However, he never became serious with Lin Lan for more than half a minute before softening.

"I won't scold you, when have I scolded you?" Steve said helplessly, "Tell me, why is it four hours."
"Because..." Lin Lan was depressed and licked her dry lips, "After four hours, the bombs in the whole building will detonate together."
Lin Lan didn't know how long it took her to calm down the violent fluctuations in her heart at this moment. Maybe it didn't take long, but it just felt like a long time.She only regrets one thing now, she should have stabbed Caden's body a few more times, or directly dismembered him into pieces, instead of letting him sleep so comfortably on the bed.
Nick Ferry is actually no different from being dead, the only difference is whether he is breathing or not.
He was wearing a short-sleeved white hospital gown, his eyes were closed tightly, the eye mask had long since disappeared, and half of his face had been festered so badly.
Nick's two black arms were each pierced into four milky white rubber tubes that connected to the container above his head.An oxygen tube for breathing was inserted into his nostrils, and his slightly swollen abdomen looked strange.That definitely wouldn't be the big belly of a middle-aged man. Director SHIELD has a strong chest and abdomen, and he exercises every inch of his muscles every day.
On top of that, there were faint lights flickering on and off in the bulge, suggesting that something had been put into his belly.Because there are still very obvious suture marks there, and the red surgical thread has not been removed.
what is that?
But Lin Lan didn't think it was a good time to wake up Nick Ferry.
A large number of police and bomb disposal experts have gathered under the building, and the cordon has been pulled to a distance of one kilometer from the surrounding of the building.They evacuated the civilians and took various protective measures, but no one could go in and dismantle the bomb, because they learned from Captain America that the virus inside would cause unprecedented chaos.

Natasha said: "It seems that her super memory came from this way."

"Then, do you want to tell Tony what happened today?" Natasha said, "After all, they are brother and sister, and Tony should know what his sister is going through."
"Let's tell him after Lin Lin comes out. I hope these media don't wantonly report and reveal too much."
"Captain." Natasha's voice was heavy, "You know, if she fails..."
"It will work, she has never failed in her field, she is experienced and composed."
Faced with Steve's self-confidence, Natasha was not so optimistic: "I don't understand, she is still a child, how can you go down to the forest to do such a dangerous thing?" Black Widow felt that she should know the captain very well. , this American soldier who puts caring for others first in everything, is so delicate that sometimes even she can't stand it, "If Lin can't succeed, do you know what it means? She won't choose to escape alone, she will stay there ,You know."
Steve obviously understood this very well, and Natasha could also see that he was deeply entangled in his heart, but he still let Lin Lan put himself in the danger of narrowly dying.That's right, Natasha admitted that Lin Lan had many advantages, but she was still just a child, and she shouldn't bear burdens that didn't belong to her.
"She's not a child anymore," Steve said.
"Yes, she has reached the age of legal responsibility, but she is still a child, to you and me."
"As I said, she is no longer a child." How could Steve not know that once Lin Lan could not bring Nick out within a limited time, she would not be a deserter alone, "Not from the beginning."
Tony might hate him, no, he definitely would.Because Steve not only failed to protect Iron Man's sister, but also failed to let the siblings say goodbye at the last moment.
"Captain, what exactly do you want to say?" Natasha heard some clues.
"I'll call Tony first."
Two full hours of uninterrupted healing, the time has never passed so fast like now, as if what just passed was not two hours, but two minutes.
The festering on Nick Ferry's face gradually improved, and most of the virus in his blood dissipated. Lin Lan felt a little tired after waking him up.She couldn't help but think, fortunately, she had recovered ten levels of skill, otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to suck out so many viruses from his body at once.
Nick's blood is filled with at least ten kinds of poisonous bacteria. If he is not unconscious, he will definitely be in pain like those living test subjects.
The solutions in those tubes were virus-stabilizing drugs and nutrients that allowed Nick to survive long enough without eating, drinking, or excreting.However, if Lin Lan hadn't known these viruses very well and had purified them herself, she would not have been able to get rid of them within two hours.
But now, she encountered a very difficult problem, so that Lin Lan had to wake up Nick: "Mr. Ferry, how do you feel?"
When Nick Ferry woke up, he felt dizzy. He was top-heavy, and his body leaning on the chair was a little out of control.But soon, he realized where he was now and what he had experienced before he fell into a coma.
"It's you?" The deep voice was weak, and Nick moved his arms. "I didn't expect that the person I met before I died would be you."
Lin Lan pressed the acupuncture points on his head, causing Nick to wake up quickly: "Let's not talk about the rest, now there is a problem."
"I have a bomb detonator in my stomach, and two tubes of virus stock solution are also in the detonator." Nick clearly understood what happened to him.
The virus contained in the detonator was not an ordinary virus. It was specially developed by Kadeng using Lin Lan's blood and cells. It could also be said that it was a poison against Lin Lan, and it was of course fatal to ordinary people.
Once the detonator's time is over, the two tubes of virus will be injected directly into Nick's blood, and then, the high temperature after the explosion will cause the virus to spread rapidly.
Lin Lan can purify viruses, no matter how powerful they are, but it takes time for new viruses to develop antibodies, and it is clear that Death has not given them enough time.
"Yes, that's right, that's the situation." She didn't say anything, but the other party was able to explain it, which made Lin Lan stunned for a few seconds before continuing, "Can you stop the timing of the detonator?" ?”
Lin Lan discovered this black detonator hidden in his stomach when he was forcing the poison for Nick, which was about the size of an adult's fist.After [-] days of fusion, its edges have been firmly attached to the internal organs, and it cannot be removed without a professional doctor's operation.
When the time is up, the detonator sends a detonation signal to all bombs.
"Did you bring a knife?"
Nick had a lot of doubts in his heart, such as why Lin Lan came to rescue him, because the girl must have known what he had done.Nick knew that the video was a trap set by the enemy, but he was still willing to take risks to face the threat of evil forces.
He took the risk not because he was afraid that what he had done would be exposed, after all, it was not his fault.
It's just that Lin Lan was plotted against again and again. As a person who knew the truth, she had already taken precautions.He thought it was necessary for him to do something for Lin Lan. Anyway, Nick still hoped that the girl could live a normal life and not be influenced by evil.
It was beyond his expectation to make himself like this, Nick thought he could do it.
It seemed that Carden Parick regarded him as his last card.
"Bring it." Lin Lan took out the dagger that Doug gave her, or it could be said that she snatched it away.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. products? Then I'm relieved." He let out a heavy breath from his mouth, "Facing the place where the detonator is, dig it out, be careful not to touch those leads. Then hand it over to the To dismantling experts. Don't worry, as long as this thing comes out of my body, it won't react with others. I guess you can guarantee that it will not be spilled when it is brought to the vacuum chamber, right?"
It seems that when Caden was torturing him, he revealed a lot of information very frankly.
"Can you dismantle it yourself?" Lin Lan doesn't know how to perform such a complicated operation. Besides, she doesn't have professional surgical tools. "I haven't learned how to do surgery, and I can't do it alone. Dismantle it to ensure that the bomb on the floor will not explode. Then I will take the virus out of you, and after I go out, I will find a doctor to remove this thing."
"I want you to dig it out directly, not to do any surgery."
"No, the device has been completely integrated with your internal organs. I can't pick it out bit by bit. Moreover, without anesthetics, you can't hold on."
Nick closed his eyes, showing a very tired look: "Just dig that pile up."
"Have you been sleepy for half a month? If you dig them all out, you'll die." When the words fell, she was startled suddenly, "Could it be you!"
"Yes." Nick didn't even think about getting out of here alive, "Okay, let's do it, I hope you move fast enough, so that I will suffer less. Or, you can kill me first, so I don't have to watch Someone was gouging my stomach."
"Are you kidding me?" Lin Lan felt dumbfounded, "I'm here to save you, not to kill you. What do you think of me? Do you think I'll take revenge?"
"Since you know what I have done to you, you don't have to show mercy. I really wanted to kill you back then. This is an indisputable fact. And I did send someone to monitor you for 17 years. Hatred is justified."
"Fuck you." Lin Lan said sullenly, "I overthrew so many people who robbed your fighter plane, and flew from nowhere for five hours to finally get here. I don't care about passers-by watching Jumped from the plane to the 65th floor, but you told me to kill you, is there something wrong with your brain, or is there something wrong with my mind?"
"The design of this device is very complicated, and I'm afraid I can't dismantle it." Nick may be completely moved, and because of this, he doesn't want Lin Lan to take any risks for it, "Okay, let's do it, bomb disposal experts are definitely better I can do it."
"If you don't try it, how will you know? Anyway, your stomach will be broken. Try it. We still have time, two hours."
Nick eventually agreed with her, but also said he had to be eviscerated 10 minutes earlier and leave with the device.
The design of the detonating device and the virus stock solution is quite ingenious. Once the stock solution is taken away, the blasting device will be triggered immediately.If an outsider enters the building, the raw liquid will react immediately and be injected into Nick's body. Once the pressure of the raw liquid is lost, the bomb will also explode.
Therefore, if the detonator is not stopped, it will be dead anyway.
Time passed by, and it took Lin Lan nearly 10 minutes to cut Nick's flesh with a dagger. Although she paralyzed her upper body for him, the sound of cutting flesh and the blood continuously flowing from the wound, All of which make the parties extremely uncomfortable.
Moreover, because she was afraid of touching the fuse of the bomb, Lin Lan was very careful when she moved the knife with her hand.
"Okay." Lin Lan placed a piece of glass with excellent reflective effect in front of Nick, "Let's start, tell me how to do it."
Although Nick is not a bomb disposal expert, he is no worse than a professional. He is sweating profusely at this moment. Facing his internal organs that are still twitching slightly, he first collected himself and then started to work.
The process of dismantling the bomb was fairly smooth, although Lin Lan and Nick did it with the determination to die every time they cut a thread short or dropped a screw.But if Director SHIELD hadn't had absolute confidence, he wouldn't have gambled with Lin Lan's life. Although the progress was slow, it was steady.
Nick's eyes have blurred so much over time that it takes him a few minutes each time he glances at the reflection in the glass before he is sure: "Okay, those last two wires are critical, let me rest a little bit 1 minute."
With the last 15 minutes left, judging from the current trend, they should be able to succeed.
"You have learned a lot." Nick said suddenly, "I remember that when you first came to the United States, you didn't even know how to use a computer, and you rejected technological products."
Lin Lan thought he was trying to relieve his tension, so he replied: "People will improve, and technology changes life."
It took a long time before Nick Ferry opened his eyes, which were out of focus: "I'm sorry, kid."
"It's scary to hear your apology." Lin Lan said with a smile, "Actually, I already knew that there was something wrong with my body. You just don't want Agent Lin to ruin your life for dangerous goods."
"It seems that you really know everything." He glanced out the window, the sun was just right, "You are better than your father, and you are upright."
Lin Lan shrugged: "Actually, I don't really have any feelings for him, and I don't have any impression, so I won't be very happy when you say that. But, I guess, Mr. Ferry will never spy on me again. Me, have I even bugged my house?"
"Sorry." He twitched the corner of his mouth with a wry smile, "I won't do this again."
"Actually, I'm not really Lin Lan." She said, "I also concealed something, so it's evened out."
"Aren't you really Lin Lan? I don't quite understand."
"Let's talk about it after you get out, but don't think about being a spy right away. Tony and Steve both know it. They can accept it. I hope you can too."
Nick glanced at the electronic timer: "Let's talk now, time is running out."
"How could it be?" Lin Lan smiled, "After you go out, take care of your body, I can talk slowly."
"It's a pity, kid." Nick finally sighed, and said in an almost desperate tone, "I can't dismantle it."
At this moment, Lin Lan's mind went blank, and she let out a humming sound.She didn't know what else to say at this moment, she just felt suffocating as if the air in the whole room had been sucked out.
"W-why? There are two wires left here, we have a one-in-two chance, don't we?" She found her voice trembling.
"Those two threads are the same color, which means..." He swallowed, "Parik is teasing us."
"There must be another way!"
"Eviscerate me, take it out, and get all of you out of this place."
Lin Lan glanced at the timer with only 13 minutes left, then looked at Nick Ferry's eyes eagerly wishing her to leave, and suddenly smiled slightly.
She turned on the communicator and was soon connected to Steve's headset.
"Lin Lin!" He could hear that he was extremely anxious, but Steve tried his best to restrain himself, "How is your side, do you need any help from us? Time...is running out."
"Yes, time is running out, so you go first." Lin Lan paused for a long time before saying, "We will come later."
"Failed, right?" Steve sometimes wondered about it, he could always understand the true meaning of Lin Lan's expression at the first moment, "It's okay, I'll come up now, you stay there and don't go anywhere .”
"No!" Lin Lan said loudly, "I don't want to see you, let's break up, I don't love you anymore, the person who brought you, get out of here, as far away as possible!"
"Lin Lan, what are you doing!" Nick Ferry looked at her incredulously, "Give me the knife, if you can't do it, I'll do it myself!"
"Shut up!" Lin Lan yelled, "Let me speak clearly with my ex-boyfriend!"
"You want to get rid of me, it's impossible, you can't get rid of me, my speed is faster than you, and my stamina is better than yours." Steve said as he hurried towards the door of the building.
"Steve, please, don't come in!" Lin Lan took a deep breath, "As soon as you step into this building, the virus will spread immediately, and we are all played by Parick."
"If the bomb goes off, the virus will spread as well. It doesn't make any difference." But he stopped. "There must be another way."
"Yes, I'll drink them so the virus doesn't leak elsewhere."
"What will you do?"
"Just like that woman named Azhi."
Once she drank all of it into her stomach, Lin Lan's body would be quickly corroded and infected by the virus. She could only dilute them with all her strength, like being poisoned by a poison that had no antidote, and she couldn't force it out.
"Don't do it," Steve said almost pleadingly, "We still have time."
Everyone can hear their conversation, but no one interrupts it. Unless someone can give the best of both worlds, otherwise, every word they say is to disturb the farewell between the lovers.
"It will take me some time to dilute everything. If I don't do this, more people will die. Now there are 10 minutes left, maybe just right." There was a silence on the other side of the communication, so Lin Lan continued, " Steve, it's my choice, you won't be mad at me, will you?"
Before Lin Lan made such a decision, she actually struggled. She thought that she could ignore Nick Ferry's life and do her best when the virus broke out. A vision of the end of the world.
But in the end, she found that it was impossible for her to walk out of the building alone with peace of mind.
But at least, in this life, my own death can be exchanged for the lives of countless people, and that is worth it.
Steve suddenly remembered that he had said the same thing to Peggy when he flew the plane into the Arctic Ocean 70 years ago, and he could finally understand Peggy's helpless despair and sadness at that time.Just like him now, this feeling is even colder than when the plane hit the ice and the sea water poured into the cabin in an instant.
"I won't be angry with you." Steve raised his head, as if he could see the girl on the 65th floor at a glance, "Lin Lin, actually, I've always wanted to ask you a question."
"what?"
Steve finally stopped hesitating: "Will you marry me?"
Tears welled up in Lin Lan's eyes, and she didn't know how to answer for a while, if it wasn't for the time slipping away to stimulate her brain nerves, Lin Lan might be dizzy with happiness.
"I already, already dumped you, just now." I didn't expect that I would say such words after a long time of deliberation.
"I know." Steve said indifferently, "So, you can stop being my girlfriend and be my wife, would you like to?"
Even though Natasha and Barton have seen countless life and death in their lives, they couldn't help but be moved by the conversation between the two.
"Yes." Lin Lan replied with a smile, "I am willing."
