The news of Captain America's return is no longer a secret in the whole world.
And now, Steve Rogers is visiting Martha at her home.
Martha Rogers was Steve's cousin, so when Cassel knew that she was Steve Rogers' nephew, he gave up his plan to take Steve to those men's paradise.
At the dining table, Cassel looked at the pile of books in the living room that needed Steve's signature, regretting that he had bragged in front of Beckett, and then half the police department was looking for him, everyone hoping to get an autograph from Captain America.
Steve followed Cassel's line of sight and saw the stack of notebooks, and smiled from the bottom of his heart. No one doesn't like being popular.
"I didn't expect that the person who asked me if I needed help was actually you... uh, Cassel."
"I didn't expect that I would meet Captain America while driving on the road... By the way, can you do me a favor? You know I have brought too many people's expectations..."
Cassel pointed to his 'mission', feeling a little embarrassed.
But Steve didn't express any dissatisfaction. To him, his age and appearance were not much different. Except that he slept a little too long, he was actually still a young man.
Steve listened to Cassel introducing him to the changes in the world over the years, and when he was excited, Steve could even add a few sentences following Cassel's train of thought.
Two people of similar age have crossed the threshold of the times.
The other two people at the table, Cassel's child Alex, looked at his father, without any doubt that his father had not noticed that he had just secretly stuffed a stack of notebooks that needed to be signed.
Martha shook her wine glass and took a sip from time to time.
Finally, after the two immortal children finished talking, Martha slowly became concerned about Steve's recent life.
"Steve, where have you been living lately? Do you still have money? Maybe your nephew can lend you some."
Steve shook his head, and regarded Martha's straightforward inquiry as the deepest concern, and said: "I bought the old house in Brooklyn. I live there now. It is the same place as it was seventy years ago.
It’s no different…after all, old people always miss the past…”
"You're talking about the old house in Brooklyn? I remember it wasn't cheap there..."
"The military also gave me an allowance every year in accordance with the missing benefits. Plus the share of the dolls, I am actually very rich now. I never thought that a house that only cost 5,000 yuan before would now cost 5 million.
…”
Hearing this number, Martha put the wine glass in her hand on the table and asked: "Five million? Did you buy the entire house? Didn't you only live in the apartment on the second floor?"
Steve nodded and said: "I originally hoped that I could live on the first floor of the apartment and grow the things I like in the garden downstairs. Now that I have money, I can fulfill my original ideal, and the tax bureau has already
A notice was sent to me that if I don’t file the consumption tax, I will be charged additional taxes..."
"How much money do you have? Forget it, pretend I didn't ask... maybe you need an accountant, maybe Cassel can introduce you to one or two..."...
Hearing this, Cassell nodded quickly and said: "Yeah, don't worry, I know someone in the Control Bureau. He is very good at accounting. He can also use the Control Bureau's account, which can save a lot of money...
"
Cassel continued to provide Steve with all possible help, just to let his bragging in the police station end successfully. As Steve nodded in agreement, Cassel spoke faster and faster.
Soon.
Back in Brooklyn, Steve had a deeper understanding of his own existence. After all, after so many years, he still had family members around him, and that was enough.
Ever since he woke up, Steve felt that he did not belong to this era. The evolution of the military and the modernization of society had caused the original Captain America, who led the charge with the Roaring Commando, to lose his position.
The military gave him a period of time, during which he went through a series of changes, even after he saw a humanoid rhinoceros robbing a bank whose horns were broken by the New York Police Department's Joint Control Bureau using ATS armor.
, those confusions about life also disappeared.
Now that the world has become like this, how can it get any worse?
When Steve returned home, he looked at the shield hanging on the wall and saw that his own weapons had been packaged and delivered by the Control Bureau.
Steve touched his shield nostalgically, and put the keys, mobile phone and other bits and pieces on him into the bowl on the chest of drawers. Then he took off the shield and kept changing the posture he used to sell bonds.
To outsiders, this is a person who has been abandoned by the times and misses his past.
But Steve threw the shield violently into the dark hallway.
There was a crashing sound, followed by the sound of a woman falling to the ground, a series of running sounds and the sound of furniture toppling over.
The shield returned to Steve's hand through constant collisions. At the same time, Steve also had an M1911 in his hand. He placed the gun on the edge of the shield and pointed it carefully into the darkness.
"Captain! Don't shoot!"
A voice calling for a ceasefire came from the darkness, and Steve turned on the lamp in the living room. A black guy in black leather clothes was helping the person next to him.
"You are...Nick Fury?!"
Steve recognized the man who was wanted around the world and reached for the phone on the table on the other side of the living room. In order to preserve the atmosphere of the times, his home also had a landline phone.
However, when he picked up the phone, there was no blind tone. Steve touched the back of the phone and found that the original phone line had long been cut.
"Captain! We are here to seek help, and you are the only one who can help me now..."
Nick Fury was sitting on the sofa, and Steve looked at him with slight disgust.
When Nick Fury saw Steve's expression, he didn't know what was going on in his heart. There was still no change in his face at all.
"Captain, we don't have any bad intentions here. I'm here to tell you the truth about the world. The biggest evil in the world is the person who dug you out. He is the root cause of world peace..."
Listening to Nick Fury's words, Steve's face became more sarcastic. He didn't even look at who was the wanted criminal now.
"He announced the dark side of the world without authorization, disrupted the dark order, and even had a conflict with the Lord of the Nine Realms, turning the originally peaceful world into a battlefield!"
Facing Nick Fury's words, Steve compared them with reality one by one. Announcement of the dark side of the world refers to dimensional invasion. Interfering with the dark order is killing vampires?
Steve cursed in his heart, 'If I hadn't gotten into trouble when I woke up and was forced to read all the intelligence from the Control Bureau this year, or else I would have really been deceived by you...'
Nick Fury is truly an intelligence officer. According to him, all changes in the world come from Ash. The former S.H.I.E.L.D. protected the world under his leadership.
However, what Nick Fury doesn't know is that the information he regards as confidential is just his wishful thinking.
Ash's idea is that after all, fighting requires everyone to fight hard and know why they fight hard. Apart from not being allowed to be discussed outside, within the Control Bureau, it is just a topic for teasing after dinner.
After listening to Nick Fury's series of great arguments, Steve reached out to interrupt him and said: "Since you have such a big opinion, then tell him face to face..."
The keen Nick Fury looked at the chest of drawers on the porch, where there was Steve's mobile phone in the bowl. At the beginning, Steve reported this matter to the Control Bureau.
Now that the Control Bureau's troops have arrived, Steve's keen hearing can already hear the subtle engine sound of the ATS armor outside the wall.
