How did I become a villain

Most of the sailors are young people in their twenties. They are full of vigor and vitality. Some of them have heard of Captain America's deeds when they were in their hometown. Now that they see him, they naturally want to ask him out of curiosity.And Steve knew everything, and his own age was about the same as that of the sailors, and he had common hobbies and topics, so the two sides quickly chatted together.After going back and forth to get acquainted with each other, the last bit of dissatisfaction and doubts also disappeared.

"Superheroes are human too..." Looking at the warm scene in the boxing ring, Howard expressed such emotion.He turned his head to look at the girl sitting at the side of the bar with her legs dangling in the air. "This kind of place is not the place for a delicate puppet like you to come."

Sailing at sea usually does not go to the ground for several months. Out of the consideration of venting the excess energy of the sailors, there are also leisure and entertainment areas on warships.With no women to provide that service, the Admiralty did everything it could to keep the boys' morale up.Therefore, the cabin of the Earl Zeppelin, which was originally a German ship, was also opened up for wrestling, and it was integrated into the family of the United States Navy.

"There's no place I can't go on this ship," said Griffin, who was playing with a Coke bottle and thinking about where I couldn't go inside my wife.She directly used her thoughts to take a bottle of drink from the bar. "Come on?"

"No, I have this." Howard raised the glass in his hand.Seeing the lid of the Coke bottle disappear abruptly, and the iced mist coming out of the mouth of the bottle, I lamented the convenience of the power of space, but couldn't help but said: "Drink less drinks, this is your third bottle."

I am not even allowed to drink happy water, where can I find the source of happiness?This batch of materials was transported by my wife from the east coast with great pains.

The girl ignored him, and while she was drinking, she beckoned to the black bartender on the other side of the bar to pour Howard a drink.

"Don't talk like an old lady, I didn't say anything about you when you hurt the locals in Hawaii."

"That's my hobby, the joy of life. You, an underage child, won't understand."

The two have been together for many days, and Howard has long stopped seeing Griffin as a child, but he is still used to beating each other in the name of a child and taking pleasure in it.

"On the contrary, I understand. Because this is also my hobby." Griffin let out a full belch that irritated the nasal cavity, wrinkled his little nose and pointed to the bottomed glass bottle. "Of course I mean this."

"Do you still need it? Captain?" The black bartender refilled Howard's glass, and he couldn't help asking when he saw that Griffin drank the drink in his hand again.

"No, thank you. Let me take it easy." The girl whose stomach was full of carbon dioxide politely declined the other party's kindness.

Of course, she also knew that it was not advisable to drink too much sugar-laden Coke, but she just deliberately contradicted Howard.

At this time, Steve, who had cleared the level, also walked over from the ring.

"captain?"

"Didn't Howard tell you?" Griffin asked strangely. "My role as captain of the flagship Graf Zeppelin."

Carter knew this too.

"Mariana." Howard corrected, and added: "I want Steve to understand this, and I'm not his father."

"When you say 'you want him', you're already trying to be a father. Because you're trying to 'dominate.'" Griffin said deadpan.

Steve took a sip of his drink and turned to look at Howard.

"Don't look at me like that, your mother is over there." Howard gestured to Griffin behind Steve with his eyes.

Griffin, who was taken advantage of, blinked and showed a hypocritical smile.Calmly replaced the red wine in Howard's glass with vodka.

When Howard looked at the girl's embarrassed smiling face and triumphantly picked up the glass to drink half of it, the joy on his face immediately turned into shock, and then he coughed violently, his white face flushed, and it took a while to calm down.

"If you're so naughty again, Uncle, I'm really going to get angry." Speaking words without deterrent force, Howard picked up a new cup.

"Carter and I have other... well, more important topics. So..." Confirming that his partner is okay, Steve looked at the girl with her chin resting on her right hand. "The ability of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube?"

"It's just a trick."

Drain the red wine from the bottom and pour in new wine.If Howard was holding a glass, it would be more troublesome, because the weight of the glass had to be kept constant, and then turning it upside down became a math problem of adding water while pouring water.

She didn't believe that Howard would never drink vodka, and such an exaggerated performance was also performed on purpose.

The three continued to sit at the bar for a while.

Steve said suddenly, "Captain, if my sense of direction is correct, we seem to be heading southwest?"

After several space teleportations, the fleet was already very close to the task force, but now there was no news of the rendezvous, so Steve asked this question.

"Captain, your sense of direction is very accurate, but we are not going to Japan to join the task force, but to go to Wright Gulf." Griffin confirmed the other party's guess, and then changed the subject. "When I tried to use the Rubik's Cube yesterday morning, I accidentally caught a distress message from a heavy cruiser named Indianapolis. The location is near Guam, and I plan to go there to have a look. Don't worry, this The matter has been reported to the Lieutenant General and approved. It will not delay our trip to Japan."

Steve nodded.

Using the Rubik's Cube to explain it may be a bit mysterious, but he could clearly hear the word for help.Griffin's statement doesn't sound like nonsense. If there is a ship in distress there, he should really do something about it.

"Is there anything I can do?" Steve asked.

Griffin's answer was also simple. "Get your survival gear ready."

Howard is skeptical.

"What you said is true?" Taking advantage of Steve's absence, he expressed his doubts to Griffin. "Even if it's true, you can tell the nearby naval base through the lieutenant general and ask them to send planes and rescue ships to start a rescue?"

Volume 96.2: [-] The Darkness Before the Dawn

If that's the case, it's too late.

Given the low efficiency of the local commanders, most of them would not take this seriously.Everyone is equal, why should I listen to you?

Moreover, it is not that the cruiser did not send a distress signal before it sank, and there is no reason why the naval base that is closer cannot receive it.

Griffin had to explain: "We are performing a secret mission."

Since it is a secret mission, it means that the location of the fleet does not exist on the irrelevant base map.

It is true that the navy is an ally, but there is no need for everyone to know about the existence of the Rubik's Cube.

Howard also reacted with a slap on the head. "Looks like the alcohol has paralyzed my brain to ask such stupid questions. So it's up to us, right?"

"That's right, because in the current combat record, we are a 'non-existent' fleet." Griffin nodded. "Thanks to the space teleportation ability of the Rubik's Cube, the fleet currently has a long enough vacuum period to choose where we should appear."

In this way, things will become much more reasonable in the eyes of some people.After all, in different identities and heights, the information obtained is different.If you have doubts, the word "confidential" can explain a lot of things.

For the vast majority of people in this world, the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, which is beyond common sense, is really incomprehensible. At this time, using conventional methods can actually play a role.

"It seems that you have already considered it." Howard put his hands in his trouser pockets. "But how are you going to explain to Steve that you wiped out the Raider squad?"

"I wasn't going to tell him that. Because I didn't know how to say it," Griffin said.Judging from the situation at the time, the superheroes of the raider could only live with her, and there was no third option, so she could only kill them all.But Captain America must be rescued. Even if she doesn't take the initiative, the United States will pass the pressure on Howard afterwards, not to mention that the latter and Captain America are close comrades-in-arms.

With Steve's personality, she wasn't sure how the other party would react after learning that her comrades had been killed by those who saved him. Griffin didn't want to make herself more troubled, nor did she want to make difficult choices for the other party. Opportunity, so she doesn't plan to tell this matter, this kind of self-exposure behavior is not good at this stage.

"You don't take this as a means to blackmail me, do you?" Griffin looked at him worriedly.Don't say it early, don't say it later, why say it at this time?

"What do you think of me? Uncle, I am the most honest." Howard responded righteously.His serious expression made the girl look delicate. "Actually, I also think it's weird. I also know those people in the raider team. They don't seem to be people who would do so many irrational behaviors. At least not when Steve was around."

It's as if after Captain America left, the string called sanity snapped and became more and more aggressive.

Howard didn't say this, he just had a general awareness, but Griffin had a clearer understanding of it.

That's a concern called "radicalization."

"Wouldn't they have done such extreme behavior before?" Griffin asked insincerely. "In my opinion, they are a group of terrorists who wantonly act on the basis that they are superheroes."

"I'm sorry for what happened in Kiel, not only to you, but also to the civilians there. But the accusation of terrorists is a bit too much. You can't just dismiss the whole person because of a few bad things they did. But I do find it hard to understand how they acted in the last few moments, it didn't seem like they would do it at all. It feels like a sudden change, but we all know that there is a process to everything. But... So I wondered if Hydra did something to them, such as brainwashing or hypnosis. Otherwise, I really can't explain why their behavior is completely different before and after."

Howard himself has been in a scientific research institution for many years, and he doesn't know much about what happened on the front line, so he has intermittent contact with the raider team, and he doesn't understand what happened to the other party during the transformation.But such a change happened after Steve's crash, that's for sure.

Griffin felt that he should have a comprehensive understanding of these opponents, and use this to analyze whether the inducement of this group of people's temperamental changes came from personality or emotions, or other factors.So she acted interested. "Tell me about them if you get a chance."

After experiencing a slight dizziness, the fleet arrived at another sea area.

"Let the carrier-based aircraft take off, focus on searching the waterway from Guam to Wright Gulf, and confirm whether there are obvious signs of oil leakage in the surrounding waters. The target of our search and rescue is a large cruiser-class ship. If she sinks, the leaked heavy oil will be in the sea. It will be very obvious on the plane.” In front of Lieutenant General Mitchell, Griffin directly began to issue orders to the operational commander, with a cold and serious voice in an orderly manner without showing any timidity. "But remember, folks, the longer it drags on, the ocean currents will scatter the oil and the survivors farther and farther apart, and we're in a race against time."

Commanding the Graf Zeppelin during the entire observation operation, Mitchell had already understood the professional ability of this girl, but other commanders had doubts in their hearts.After all, they don't need to stay on the bridge and war room for a long time like the fleet commander, and they have never seen Griffin's methods.But also due to the aura she showed to the whole ship through the broadcast every day, coupled with the combat effectiveness of super soldiers, she dared not make mistakes.

In addition, the ship in distress belongs to the United States, and they followed the instructions and sent water reconnaissance and long-range bombers to the predetermined area.

"The radar room didn't receive any distress signal that night. How are you sure?" Colonel Burke quietly walked over while no one was paying attention.

They didn't receive it of course, because that's what I came up with from memory.

The sinking of the USS Indianapolis was a tragedy caused by the sum of many accidents. If possible, she also wanted to save some lives.

Griffin pointed to his ear.

"If I say this is the power of the Rubik's Cube, do you believe it?" This is the best explanation for her superpower, if there is anything unclear, just put it here.

"Of course I don't believe it." Burke was unmoved.Out of the caution of the staff, the information obtained has also been analyzed and confirmed by multiple parties.It is irresponsible for one's job to push everything to uncertain guesses. "Based on the response from the adjacent naval base, we have no signs of any vessel activity in that area."

Volume 96.3: [-] Rescue of the USS Indianapolis

Of course they won't admit it because it's a top secret operation.Griffin understood the specialness, but she couldn't explain it to the other party.Because she couldn't explain how she knew.

Now as long as they firmly insist that they have received a distress signal through the Rubik's Cube, no matter how much they doubt, they will not rely on the secrets they already know. There is no evidence to prove that she eavesdropped on the secret operation.

"But in fact, I did receive the distress signal through the Rubik's Cube. It doesn't need to pass through the radar." Griffin insisted.

You are not the commander-in-chief of the navy, how could you tell you everything?

The colonel watched her, unable to see hesitation in the other's eyes. "I just don't get it, what makes you so sure what's going to happen here?"

"I said, it's not what I thought would happen here, it's what the Rubik's Cube told me."

"Then can I think so..." At this point, Burke's voice was once again extremely low. "The space capabilities of the Rubik's Cube can also be applied to interception on a global scale? Nothing can hide from large-scale situational awareness?"

"You really flatter me, Colonel." Griffin looked at him expressionlessly. "If that's the case, everything about the Allies will be watched by the Axis. You won't have any chance of turning things around."

I think you all have a deep understanding of the advantages of unilateral perspective in competitive games.Whether fighting against Germany, Italy or Japan, which time did the Allied forces not take advantage of intelligence?

Then, the bridge fell into a long silence.Until an hour later, the latest news came from the naval bombers ahead.

"...I found a large amount of oil on the surface and survivors, all sunburned and severely dehydrated. Sending position back now..."

Many people, including Colonel Burke, looked at Griffin as the captain in disbelief.

The girl who was stared at by multiple eyes was very calm.

"Tell the whole ship, speed up the sailing, and let's pick up these heroes who defeated the god of death."

Another aircraft carrier scouting in the adjacent waters also sent back news that there were survivors in the nearby waters. To make matters worse, many sharks were swimming towards these survivors from a distance.

The pilot of the plane immediately turned the nose and saw the miserable state of his comrades in the navy. The fellow machine gunner angrily wanted to use the machine gun to shoot retaliatory shots at the sharks cruising around, but the pilot stopped him. For fear that the blood will attract sharks again.

The pilot maneuvered the plane to hover in the sky, swooped down as soon as he saw the sharks, and used the engine and airflow to stir up the waves to scare them away. Only when all the sharks in the vicinity had escaped and the sea water became clear did he land carefully on the sea surface.

With the help of pilots, many of the wounded survivors were transferred onto the massive wings.

They rose and fell with the waves until a whole fleet appeared at the end of their sight.Realizing that they were finally rescued, many people hugged each other and cried.

"...we were torpedoed by a Japanese submarine, one in the bow and one near amidships, both mortally wounded on the starboard side. The midship torpedo caught fire, causing momentum The system failed. I sent the radar room one last mayday and gave the order to abandon ship before realizing the ship was unrecoverable."

"After that we dispersed in the waters near the wreck, but the currents separated us that night."

"We survived two days without supplies, during which time 100 people died from dehydration or injuries every day, but many more died from shark attacks. If you didn't come in time, I'm afraid Far fewer crew members have been rescued than they are now."

Charles McVeigh recalled the scene that happened a few nights ago. Although he was physically and mentally exhausted, he had to explain the situation to his superiors as soon as possible when such a major and tragic accident happened.

However, what happened to the USS Indianapolis is destined not to be widely reported when the situation announced by the front line is very good.Although this is a tragedy in the history of the US Navy.

The original history was like this, but it happened that this tragedy was terminated early, and there was a Captain America among the people involved in the rescue operation.

"This is a tragedy that could have been avoided." Steve felt that he should do something for these poor survivors.His sense of justice about fairness and justice made it impossible for him to remain silent.

"If you want to do something about it, go for it." Howard said with a doting look on his old father's face. "I think the navy will give these unfortunate soldiers an explanation."

Steve understood the meaning of the words, turned his head and said to Captain McVeigh: "I believe that you have done everything a captain should do in a critical moment, and if necessary, I am willing to testify for you in court. "

After all, he is not a member of the Navy, but in court martial he is willing to do his best to convince the judge and jury.

As non-naval personnel, the two of them were originally not authorized to participate in this meeting, but because they personally participated in the rescue operation, they were fortunate to receive special permission from Lieutenant General Mitchell.

"Maybe we should have come earlier?" Griffin whispered in a corner of the venue.She is more or less someone who has seen the cruelty of war, but seeing the appearance of these survivors, no matter what purpose they had at the beginning, sympathy prevailed at this time.

Even if sharks don't eat people, they will die if they bite one by one.

These are ordinary people, not thick-skinned superheroes.

"No, our speed is already very fast. It's a pity that those who died in battle didn't make it to the end." Lieutenant General Mitchell comforted her. "Being able to pick up the distress signal and act is way better than those naval base idiots, that ship is not in my command, and I don't have her coordinates. The ocean is so vast, and being able to find them so quickly has It is the best embodiment of the speed of soldiers."

It was out of his hands, but Mitchell came anyway and pulled off a successful rescue.This made the lieutenant general realize that in addition to the global deployment of troops that everyone thinks, the Cosmic Rubik's Cube is also excellent when used to rescue disasters.

If every ship in the navy, and even every navy soldier, has an identification card showing the location, when these people are in danger, they can do their best to find and rescue them.Even, if every American citizen is registered with an ID card, their every move will be under the surveillance of the government... This idea flashed through Lieutenant General Mitchell's mind. The Admiralty put forward the first half of the proposals, but the most urgent thing now is to command the fleet to join the large fleet in Japan.

Volume 97.1: [-] Atomic Glory

Handing over the survivors of the USS Indianapolis to the rescue fleet, Vice Admiral Mitchell ordered the fleet to turn around and head north at full speed, and soon disappeared on the sea level.

On August 1945, 8, under the command of Colonel Paul Tibbetts, the atomic bomb "Little Boy" assembled from secret materials escorted by USS Indy was successfully detonated over Hiroshima.The frenzied Japanese Empire has finally encountered a super weapon that is a million times more terrifying than super soldiers and super heroes.

The news that the atomic bomb was successfully used in actual combat and caused huge destructive power immediately spread to the headlines of European and American newspapers. In contrast, the sinking of the Indy only appeared in an inconspicuous corner of the newspaper.In the joy and atmosphere where the world is looking forward to victory, it is very rare for this tragedy to be published in the newspapers.

The sinking of the USS Indy involved many coincidences and oversights, all of which can be traced in the aftermath investigation, and even the tragedy could have been avoided if the naval bureaucracy was not so rigid.But to put it a bit superstitiously, this ship cannot withstand the backlash caused by the secret materials she carries.

In any case, this day is destined to be remembered by the world. The last member of the Axis of Evil is at dusk, ready to be extinguished like a candle in the wind.

"If they don't surrender, then a second and third will fall on the heads of these bastards. We will completely wipe out this nation and use nuclear energy and radiation to sterilize the islands where they have lived for generations. To me Said, these yellow-skinned dwarfs are no different from bedbugs..." Major General McCain said in front of many people, showing his contempt for the Japanese openly.

His words attracted the approval of many colleagues.
