The Siren's Sleeping Beauty [Comprehensive British and American]

A while ago, Angus thought Thanksgiving would be over, and then Christmas came, and after Christmas there was New Years.

"Unbelievable." Wiping off the water on his body and putting on his pants, Angus kicked his legs and muttered.

Steve had already dressed and was standing at the door: "One last time, I swear. Hurry up, we're going to be late."

Angus pouted.

1976年12月31号20点45分,史蒂夫带着安格斯到了斯塔克集团总部大楼,顶层会场有一个盛大的新年派对。

"You really like a group of people getting together, don't you?" Angus glanced at the continuous crowd at the entrance in front of him. He thought that there were enough people at Christmas.

Steve paid for the cab and stood behind him, putting the little box he was clutching into his hat.

"Angus, this is our life." Steve looked at the various cars in the parking space of what seemed to be a luxury car show at the door, and his eyes swept across the crowd.

The annual meeting of the Stark Group invites a lot of people with different identities.

There are media at the door, and the bodyguards are expelling some tabloid reporters who did not receive the invitation and wanted to sneak in.

Steve pinched his nostrils, hoping that he would just take Angus out to play today.

Angus touched his hat and looked at him strangely.

"Borrow it." Steve patted his hat.

"Oh." Angus let go of his hat.

"I don't know if Tony knows how to draw the magic circle under the box." Angus shook his hat.

"...Comics are just stories, the kind that are drawn." Steve said helplessly.

"Mermaids, werewolves, wizards, vampires, none of them are true." Angus glanced at him.

"OK...my fault." Steve raised his hand.

Angus watched the flow of people in twos and threes, and kicked the stones on the ground.Steve lowered his hand, held him, and said in a low voice, "Sorry, but to help me, let's go in first."

"Ah."

"You're hot."

"Correct."

That's what I said, but it's right that no one gave up.

It was rare for Bucky to wear his professional attire, a pair of sunglasses, and a headset by his ear, and he stood at the door as a doorman.With a straight face, he carefully watched all the people passing by him, checking their invitations.

Seeing Steve, he just grinned and wanted to say hello, when he heard this question and answer.

Swiping the electronic card for them to go directly to the elevator with a look of disgust, he pressed the door of the elevator politely, but said in his mouth: "I didn't even know you were this kind of person—"

"You know exactly what he's talking about." Steve steps past him into the elevator.

"No—" Bucky shook his head, and let go of the hand blocking the elevator door, "I don't know at all."

Steve stood in the elevator, and when the door was about to close, he said casually, "Bucky, find a girlfriend. I remember that Howard invited a lot of beauties tonight?"

Bucky... this one will be fought sooner or later.

"Angus, if you notice anything wrong, smell, or movement, you must tell me. Is that okay?" In the elevator, Steve confirmed to Angus again what had been discussed before leaving.

"Understood." Angus heard him say it several times.

"Don't worry about it." Steve adjusted his hat so that the puff wasn't so easy to see.

"Oh." Angus replied.

After entering the arena, Steve stood up straight, looked around casually, and raised his hand to straighten his tie.

Bucky at the door clicked his tongue, and continued to look at the door, and soon Natasha, who appeared leaning against an elite-looking man, also came.

"Sir, please show the invitation card." Bucky dutifully stopped them.

Natasha was talking to the man in Ukrainian, and Bucky shook his head after waiting for them to go up; "Poor man."

Natasha confirmed Steve's position as soon as she entered the arena. After looking at each other, the two quickly mixed into different circles.

More and more people entered the venue, and Steve also received a lot of business cards, all of which could be considered as people from the city's top circle.But the person they were waiting for didn't show up for a long time, and Steve even had a headache to deal with it.

There is a swimming pool in the center of the venue, and the sparkling water just serves to create an atmosphere.On the stage, Howard appeared in front of the microphone fully dressed and began his speech.

Steve stood leaning against the bar, snatching the brightly colored wine glass that Angus almost grabbed into his hand.

Angus smacked his lips and turned around, turning his back on Steve.

Steve held his glass and shook his head.Although no one showed up, it was okay.

Angus listened to a bunch of incomprehensible speeches from Howard Barabara, and he only half understood the jokes.

Bored, he turned his head and looked at the elevator entrance accurately.

At the same time, Steve also saw Bucky who appeared in the infield accompanied by a strange man, here he comes.

"Steve," Angus looked at the person coming out of the elevator. It was a young man with a strong body and a lot of energy. "That person, no."

Steve saw that Natasha had already gone there, so he didn't pay too much attention, he just turned sideways and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"That man," Angus raised his chin, "he's dying."

"What?" Steve was startled.

Bringing Angus here, I just think that his inexplicable keen senses may provide some clues, after all, it is an event related to the siren.

"He was poisoned," Angus stared at the young man exuding a rotten aura, grinning with a trace of evil, "by a siren."

"Siren? Are you sure?" Steve squeezed his hand tightly.

Angus turned his gaze back: "He deserves it."

Steve glanced at the man, and Natasha had already chatted with him.

"Angus, I remember that the siren's poison can kill you instantly." Steve looked at Angus, even he had seriously walked through the gate of hell back then.

"It's not the same," Angus said in a calm voice, and glanced at the man. "He ate siren meat, and he will die slowly."

Steve was confused: "Siren meat, dying slowly?"

that is not……

"Giving voluntarily and being eaten after death is different from being forcibly taken." Angus glanced at Steve, "Siren meat that was involuntarily taken alive is poisonous."

Angus lay down on the bar counter, looking a little lazy.

Steve looked at Natasha and the young man who had separated from a distance: "Angus, do you know when he will die?"

"Well, I don't know, let's see how much he ate." Angus played with the empty wine glass.

"You won't die today?" Steve pinched his nose.

"No." Angus continued to play with the cup.

"OK, then there is still time." Steve's tense body relaxed slightly.

The fox's tail, or rather the snake's tail, was finally caught.Steve looked coldly at the young man socializing with the people around him normally, with a decent smile.

The director of Xinxing Pharmaceutical Group?

Steve glanced at the listless Angus, and knew that although he didn't care about it, his heart was much more delicate than what he showed.After hesitating for a while, he finally just patted him on the back, deciding not to involve Angus in these matters before getting more specific information.

It is said that the New Year has to wait until twelve o'clock, and it is only twelve o'clock. Angus has no pressure.But for some reason, as time passed, he just started to feel a little sleepy.

Steve found Jarvis, who was in charge of the overall venue service, and asked for a lounge for Angus to sleep in temporarily.

Instead of taking care of Angus, Steve finally went to directly contact the business upstart who was almost sure to be related to Hydra.

Rolling on the bed, the box in the hat fell out, a faint green light flashed.Angus was trying to stay awake and wasn't paying attention.

Natasha said to kiss Steve at twelve o'clock, that's the rule.

But soon, he was completely unconscious.

With half-opened and half-closed eyes, he always felt that he seemed to see the green Merlin.

...Why is it green?

"...Merlin...?"

"Angus, you really made things very complicated." Merlin's voice was a little helpless, with compromise and sigh in it, "I'm sorry that you survived."

Angus couldn't open his eyes, very confused.

What did he say?

"Try to remind him...that's the only thing I can do for you."

Angus fell asleep completely.

In the room where no one should have entered, Merlin stood beside Angus' bed wearing a red cloak, leaning slightly to look at him.

Seeing Angus gradually being enveloped by green light, Merlin tore off the cloak on his back and covered him: "Angus, I became a villain, a thief, and everything for you."

"I'm really fed up with the rubbish responsibility of sending people to their destiny."

"You have to fight hard."

The red cloak tightly wrapped Angus in his sleep, and with the green light shining, he disappeared in place.

Merlin sighed, then shook his legs, and muttered, "Didn't you just steal something... We've been friends for such a long time, you really want to kill me."

With a crackle, he hurriedly disappeared in place.

A circle of golden light splashes suddenly appeared in the air. A bald-headed woman in a yellow robe stepped out, looked around, snorted coldly, and chased after those clues.

·

"Boom!" "Boom!"

The voice was so loud that Angus frowned and turned his face away, the red cloak covering his ears intimately.

After a pause, it began to slap Angus on the back of the head frantically.

As he was slapped on the head, there was still screaming, and it was the screaming of many people. Angus opened his eyes violently, and his eyes turned into vertical pupils.

Then he and the woman in front of him looked at each other: "Who are you?"

"Ah! Aliens—!" The woman slammed her briefcase over.

Angus dodged, opened his mouth and made a sound wave that stunned her, and slowly wrinkled his face as he looked at the woman lying on the side in a wrap-around skirt and white shirt.

He looked around.

Isn't he lying in some lounge?Where's Steve?

It smells like a restaurant, the floor is made of brown and beige floor tiles, and other things...the original shape can hardly be seen.Angus looked up at the sky, and saw many hideous things flying past.

Angus... ah, so ugly.

Most of the restaurant has been chipped away, and broken bricks and rubble are everywhere.

"Is there anyone else? The nearby streets have been blocked, please evacuate as soon as possible!" People in heavy protective clothing rushed into the restaurant and shouted loudly.

"Hey, that one over there, you can't stay here anymore, get out!" They waved at Angus.

Angus pursed his lips, looked down at the woman lying beside him, pushed her towards them with his feet, turned around and left.

"You can't go that way, do you not understand people's words?"

Angus turned his head and let out a soft voice, and several people froze in place, not knowing what they saw.

Although it was only in a daze for half a minute, a few people realized that Angus had disappeared in place.

Walking out of the restaurant, Angus raised his eyebrows looking at the scattered people on the street and the few tin cars that drove like bumper cars.

Looking up, Angus looked at the building whose roof was almost inserted into the clouds, with a large area covered with glass, with a delicate expression.

Even the main building of Stark Group, which is known as the most expensive, is not so tall.

He just fell asleep... right?

Sniffing the smell of the sea that could be caught in the air, he felt that he hadn't moved his position... This should still be the location of the Stark Group.

"Hoo--" Something red and yellow flew past.

"Don't magnify the guy for now, it hasn't been cleaned up yet!"

Angus looked at something that disappeared into the distance with an ending sound, that... is it a person?then what.

The screams, screams, and cries of pain continued.

Angus stood in the ruins. After confirming the location, he walked in the same direction as the thing that flew past just now.On the way, I picked up a hat that I don't know who dropped it, and put it on my head to block the strong sunlight.

He sensed Steve, not far away.

The cloak floating behind him bounced off the flying gravel, and Angus discovered what was behind him.

He raised his hand and grabbed it: "What are you?"

The cloak touched his hand flatteringly, Angus shook his hand and let go.

He smelled Merlin.

Sure enough, it was him, what did he do again.

Angus looked at the red cloak with disgust, then let go of the cloak.

On the other side of the split, the New Year's bell struck twice, Steve walked into the lounge, and then looked at the empty bed, his pupils constricted instantly.

The author has something to say: The last chapter always had a feeling that I could finish it on the spot, and then I looked at my outline, oh well... [wiping face] Probably...it's too early.
