The Great Winter Soldier
087 The meaning of existence
In the early morning, Xia Tian was wearing a simple white vest. His exposed metal left arm, strong body, and streamlined muscles were pleasing to the eye. At this time, Xia Tian was sitting on a chair, looking at the two photos placed in front of the table. One was a photo of Erica, the adopted daughter of the Greek ambassador who died last night, a pretty woman.
"Phantom Killer Erica." Xia Tian murmured softly. Last night, he and Nicole figured out the mastermind behind the rose murder incident. Bullseye was the so-called "tool", and Kingpin was undoubtedly Bullseye's. Employer, the stack of death lists that Xia Tian has found are now all invalid.
Pushing forward from the results, Xia Tian clearly found the common points of these dead people. These dead upper-class celebrities, wealthy businessmen, all were people who had different opinions from Kingpin. King who dominated the sky in Hell's Kitchen did not allow a second voice to exist.
"Jin Bin, Jin Bin" Xia Tian moved his eyes to another picture, a bald man: Jin Bin. The absolute king of Hell's Kitchen, it would be very difficult to bring down Kingpin through conventional means. Fortunately, Xia Tian is a killer and always speaks with daggers and bullets.
In Xia Tian's eyes, these two people are both "walking balls of light". Different from Jin Bin, Xia Tian has more desire to get to know Erica, because Xia Tian hopes to start a task line. Although in a bright society, people seem to I can't see any ninjas, and I even think that ninjas only exist in novels and animations. But Xia Tian is very confident that there are definitely people from the Hand within the scope of Hell's Kitchen. This is a force that cannot be underestimated and may lead to more copy content.
Ding Dong
When Xia Tian was wondering about his next move, the doorbell rang downstairs. Xia Tian closed his eyes, and his mind power surged out. The ice blue lines made Xia Tian see a familiar figure. It should be little Wally. The taller figure next to her is a woman. wx
In the world of ice blue lines, Xia Tian saw Nicole going to open the door.
"Hi, hello, little Wally." Nicole opened the door and saw the mother and daughter outside the door. After nodding to Mrs. Rick, Nicole leaned over and rubbed little Wally's brown curly hair with one hand. It still feels good like last time.
With the encouragement of his mother, little Wally raised the small cake in his hand and said: "Mrs. Xia Xia, this is a cake I baked with my own hands. I came to deliver it last night. There is no one in your family."
Wally's voice became softer and softer, and his head lowered lower and lower. He felt a little unnatural under Nicole's gaze. He, who already had difficulty communicating with strangers, felt even more uncomfortable.
"Oh, thank you. I'm sorry for not attending your birthday party yesterday." Nicole looked at the timid little Wally in front of her, her heart softened slightly, and she reached out to take the cake.
Little Wally was obviously not a person who could hide his emotions. After seeing Nicole's actions, he looked very happy.
Little Wally's mother on the side finally spoke and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Xia, you just moved here and gave me such a valuable birthday gift to little Wally."
Yes, Nicole had arranged everything. When she and Xia Tian were out on a mission, a courier gave the gift she bought to little Wally. It was the PS4 that Wally had dreamed of. wx
"I made a promise to him, do you remember?" Nicole seemed to like the action of ruffling Wally's hair and said with a smile, "I said your wish will definitely come true."
"Yeah." Little Wally nodded vigorously.
"Your family has just moved here. I wanted to take this opportunity to hold a party to welcome you, but I didn't expect something like this to happen." As an adult, Mrs. Rick was of course a little embarrassed. She originally My intention was good. I took the opportunity of my child's birthday to welcome the new neighbors on the block and get acquainted with them. However, I didn't expect that the newly moved young couple were very busy. No one came, but gifts were delivered. It's like Rick's family went there specifically to ask for gifts.
"Don't say that, the gift is just compensation, I know
I hurt him. "Nicole looked at Mrs. Rick who was a little embarrassed, shook her head slightly, lowered her head and looked at Mrs. Rick sincerely, and said softly, "We can all see that little Wally is a little too shy. I can also imagine how much courage he mustered up to invite me to his birthday party, but Mrs. Rick, you have to understand me, we are running for our family. "
"Yes, of course I understand, of course," Mrs. Rick said hastily.
"It doesn't matter to me to reject other people, but rejecting little Wally that night really made me frustrated." Nicole sighed softly and said, "I saw his expectant eyes, and I also saw The extremely disappointed look in his eyes and what happened in just one second made me a little overwhelmed. I knew that I played a villain. When he tried to contact the world and mustered up the courage to challenge himself, But I rejected him coldly."
Nicole's words moved Mrs. Rick a little. After all, this was a strange neighbor who had just moved into the neighborhood. Mrs. Rick could never have imagined that Nicole was such a kind, gentle, considerate woman.
At the corner of the stairs on the first floor of the house, Xia Tian crossed his arms and leaned against the wall. His lifeless appearance had also changed a bit. He seemed to be infected by Nicole's words, and he thought silently in his heart: If he hadn't experienced that miserable life Nicole must have been like this before the kidnapping.
So, what kind of person was I before entering this world?
"If this gift can compensate him a little, I will thank God." Nicole looked down at little Wally's bright big eyes, and suddenly fell silent, seeming to be lost in memories again, remembering what she had done as a She was an ordinary person, before she was kidnapped by drug dealers, and her last name was Norton.
Looking at Nicole who was suddenly silent and lost in memories, Mrs. Rick didn't know what to say. Under such circumstances, the two of them should have been invited into Nicole's home the first time they spoke. , but Nicole had no such idea at all. The conversation between the three of them had been carried out at the door. In the eyes of Mrs. Rick, this very impolite behavior seemed to be ignored because Nicole was in a complicated mood. In this regard, Mrs. Rick didn't think too much.
The silence was finally broken, and little Wally said: "Thank you, Mrs. Xia."
"No, thank you." Nicole shook her head slightly, her tone full of sincerity. You made me look back at my past self and let me feel what life was like, "Sorry, Mrs. Rick, I I have to go out to work soon."
"Then don't bother me. I wish you a nice day. I will come to visit you again in the future." Mrs. Rick nodded and put her arm around little Wally's shoulder, trying to turn around and leave.
"Can I invite you to my house to play games together?" Little Wally opened his big bright eyes and looked at Nicole expectantly.
Nicole smiled helplessly, rubbed her curly hair fiercely, and cursed with a smile: "Greedy brat."
Nicole closed the door and listened to the retreating footsteps of mother and daughter. She was silent for a while, and then asked: "Do you think a person can switch between two identities at will?"
Obviously, she has long been aware of Xia Tian's existence.
At the corner, Xia Tian curled his lips slightly: "There is no need to pursue it deliberately. You can live as you like. No matter what you are, it is the real you. It's just that the things you express change with your mood and environment."
"When I touch his head with my hand, I always feel guilty in my heart." Nicole covered her face with one hand, her tone was a little low, "You know my hands are covered with blood, and I shouldn't taint that Kid, but I really like that cozy feeling.”
"It's certain that they will be stained with blood, but the lives that passed away in your hands are those of heinous sinners. You don't need to worry too much." Xia Tian comforted him softly and said, "Besides, I'm hungry."
"Of course, I have never questioned the meaning of my existence." Nicole walked quickly to the restaurant, and the small disturbance finally disappeared without a trace.
From a Nicole who was somewhat conflicted and confused, to the cold and strong Nicole, maybe she really only needed a word of guidance from Xia Tian.
