The Great Winter Soldier

As the ECG monitor emitted a long, steady beep, Xia Tian took a step back expressionlessly. In the end, the miracle still didn't happen. This is the last patient here. Xia Tian extremely hopes that among the last batch of patients, at least one person will survive, which can at least increase the probability of survival.

But still no miracle happened. Xia Tian seemed to have felt that in the next few weeks, the body lying on the hospital bed would be his right-hand assistant, Nicole.

Nicole's face was expressionless and she was not moved by the sight before her. She directed Mike to carry out the last body and silently started to pack up the equipment.

As if she didn't see the person who had just died, she asked while cleaning up: "What are you going to do with Mike."

"He knows a lot. It's impossible to let him go. Let him follow us and continue to be an employee at our place." Xia Tian thought about it and did not intend to execute Mike. At least for this period of time, under the shadow of summer, Mike worked conscientiously and never became sloppy. Timidity is Mike's weakness, and it happens to be something that Xia Tian can take advantage of perfectly.

During this time, Nicole finally took over a shabby factory, but it was not in the bustling district of Manhattan, but in the western suburbs of New York. It was not so much the western suburbs as it was a small county far away from New York. . For the past Xia Tian, ​​whenever someone mentioned New York, Xia Xia would think of all kinds of beautiful words. It seemed that it was a paradise and extremely prosperous. But when Xia Tian came to this world, he really felt the poverty and backwardness hidden under the prosperity. It was so clear and obvious in front of everyone's eyes that it was very interesting to watch.

When Xia Tian was on the mission to rescue Nicole, he was in the famous Manhattan, but the Hamlet area did not allow Xia Tian to see any prosperous scene.

"Have you investigated his family? Communication is very advanced nowadays." Nicole suddenly realized something and asked.

And when you think about it, the whole world knows about this factory. Xia Tian gave Nicole a funny look and said: "Ajax is a special boss. He has already done all the things we can worry about."

"Yeah." Nicole nodded. This has become her habit. She does what Xia Tian asks and listens to the orders Xia Tian gives. She occasionally has questions, but never questions Xia Tian's words.

This also made Xia Tian even more sad, because he really didn't want this woman to die in front of him like this.

At night, Xia Tian's group drove two black Grand Cherokees and a large pickup truck, and the three vehicles left the completely abandoned factory.

From one abandoned factory to another. Come to think of it, there is no one left.

After more than three hours of driving, Xia Tian and others finally arrived at the new stronghold. With Mike's help, a small amount of medical equipment was unloaded from the large pickup truck one by one and sent to the factory.

Nicole did not come forward to help this time. After sending the two SUVs into the garage, she silently left the villa and walked into the deep mountains and old forests behind the factory. This trip had no end, maybe it was just a walk. Relax, or perhaps, take a look at these green leaves for the last time and feel this vibrant and beautiful world.

During the transportation process, Xia Tian saw Nicole leaving alone. He didn't ask or stop her. He didn't know how long Nicole would stay outside, one hour, two hours, or one day or two days. . But what Xia Tian knows is that when she comes back, it proves that she is completely prepared and nothing can stop her.

"You are still an employee here, do what you should do. I know you are a lonely person. This status will make you live a prosperous life. As long as you have no distracting thoughts in your heart, I promise that I will not do anything to harm you. thing." After Xia Tian and Mike placed the equipment, Xia Tian opened his mouth and looked at Mike who was sweating profusely and said.

Mike nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and responded in his mouth: "Okay, okay, I know, I understand."

While Mike was hurriedly expressing his loyalty, Nicole's slender figure walked in.

Xia Tian sighed, knowing that everything was inevitable, he tilted his head slightly and motioned to the hospital bed next to him.

Nicole came over without any hesitation and lay down on her.

"Go and clean up those small rooms. Don't disturb us." Xia Tian finished speaking to Mike, turned around and looked down at Nicole, while binding Nicole's limbs to the hospital bed, and smiled, "It's better than I imagined. The time should be short.”

"I'm just going to breathe some fresh air. I know I can only spend the next half month here." Nicole smiled reluctantly, and it could be seen that her emotions were a bit complicated.

"Other rooms are a mess, but here you have tidied it up, and all the equipment is available. It seems that you can't wait." Xia Tian looked around and saw that Nicole had carefully prepared for herself in the past few days. environment of.

This is a dilapidated building covering an area of ​​about 200 square meters. It has two floors, with mottled and stained walls. It makes people worry about when it will collapse. It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. All kinds of graffiti can be seen everywhere, who knows what has happened here. This place is far away from the center of the county, but it meets the criteria of "quiet" in summer.

Nicole pursed her lips and said nothing.

"You know, being by my side and helping me create mutants is also a very beneficial thing. These mutants can also help you fulfill your dreams in the future. You don't have to do this." Xia Tian is still making his last effort, trying to Save your own assistant. He was really afraid of Nicole's death, and he didn't think he would ever find such a right-hand man again.

Although Xia Tian also knows that he is deceiving himself.

Nicole didn't speak, she just lay quietly on the bed and looked at the infusion needle on Xia Tian's left hand.

Xia Tian nodded and stopped dawdling. He didn't want to be a person who broke his promise and inserted the needle into Nicole's blood vessel.

Xia Tian turned around, picked up a mutant potion from the tray, flicked it gently, Xia Tian poured the yellow potion into the infusion tube, and looked at the mixture of yellow and blue liquids. Green was slowly injected into Nicole's body.

The next day was a painful day for Xia Tian. Although for Nicole, the real person suffering is herself.

Regarding the attractive body hanging in front of him, Xia Tian was inhumane and carried out the procedure without any hesitation. He didn't want to give up any water. The sooner Nicole could change, the greater the chance of Nicole's survival. Compared to simple torture, Xia Tian was really afraid of the subsequent procedures. Those were the procedures that could really kill people. If one were not careful, accidents would occur.

During these extremely long three days, the once fair and tender skin had become disfigured, with bruises and bruises. The idiom "Bodyless" can be completely applied to Nicole.

Xia Tian reluctantly put down the unconscious Nicole. He knew that at this stage, Nicole could not change at all, so he could only enter the next, more dangerous stage.

Xia Tian resisted the urge to give up on Nicole's transformation, placed her on the hospital bed and covered her with a white sheet.

Xia Tian lowered his head and closed his eyes silently. Compared with the physical torture, the mental torture was more unbearable.

While thinking, Xia Tian heard Nicole murmuring to herself in a coma: "Pete, I am the same as you now, I feel the same as your experience."

"Hell." Xia Tian knew that it was Nicole's father's name. She couldn't help but cursed fiercely. She stood up and left her seat, but she didn't dare to really leave. She was afraid that Nicole's life would be in danger and she could only stand there. Beside the workbench in the distance, looking at the dim lights all around, I was in a daze silently.

This situation lasted for several days. The abandoned buildings were constantly cleaned and tidy with Mike's efforts. Various daily necessities and furniture were also purchased one by one by Mike. It seemed that everything was developing in a good direction.

Xia Tian also expected this in his heart. Because Xia Tian tried his best, every stage was extremely slow. On the ninth day, something unexpected happened to Xia Tian.

It has been nine days since the first day Nicole was lying on the hospital bed. Xia Tian walked to a "coffin" anxiously and slowly opened the lid.

Every time he opened the lid, it was like opening a box of chocolates, making Xia Tian wonder what was waiting for him. The long-awaited mission success prompt on the template clearly told Xia Tian that Nicole had not changed yet.
