[Comprehensive British and American] Daniel Phillips

Chap.53 Traces of the Evil God

"I put him to sleep temporarily." Feeling Tony Stark's breathing became long, he put him on the sofa and carefully adjusted his sleeping position, "Tony's heart was filled with too many negative emotions, I think even after this conversation, there may be no way to make him feel relieved."

"I understand." Bucky nodded, "Maybe I shouldn't appear in front of him until the matter is resolved."

"You know, Bucky." Daniel looked at Bucky with regret in his eyes, "It's not your fault, you don't need to feel guilty about it."

But Bucky shook his head, and didn't intend to continue talking about this topic with Daniel - he always felt guilty, even if his crime was caused under the control of Hydra.He went to the window and looked out the window with his arms folded. There was a cold atmosphere in his whole body. Even Steve Rogers came to him to comfort him, but Bucky refused.

After taking the blanket from the mechanical arm "Benben", Daniel covered Tony Stark, and continued to chase Bucky.This long conversation dug up the hidden scars in their hearts again, and Bucky had to think of the blood debt he committed with his own hands again, and they had to learn to forget them.

"Don't worry," Natasha Romanoff sat down beside Daniel. "Whether he is Sergeant Barnes or the Winter Soldier, he has experienced a lot of wars, and he can handle these emotions by himself."

"I know." Daniel twitched the corners of his mouth, his eyes still full of worry.He clearly felt Bucky's current mood, and he had already made a decision.

"Bucky wants to move out of the Avengers Building." Steve Rogers came over and sat next to the two of them, curled up in the corner of the sofa like a large golden retriever that fell into the water, looking very aggrieved, "I originally wanted him to go back to the Avengers Building." I was staying in a rented room in Brooklyn, but he also said no."

"Give him some time and space, maybe he needs to think about it calmly." Natasha Romanov is playing the role of an intimate big sister today, and God knows that she wants to use the shields, mechs and weapons of these people now. Take them all away, then lock them all in a room, let them have a good fight, and then let them out to talk about future topics.

"I have to leave with him." Steve Rogers is not a person who easily indulges in negative emotions. Since Bucky chooses not to appear in front of Tony Stark, as Bucky's good friend, he must Advance and retreat together with Bucky, "Bucky can't be alone outside, especially in this sensitive period. Alexander Pierce has returned to New York, and the Avengers Building is full of agents who come to inquire about the news. No one can guarantee that Bucky News of returning to New York with Phillips will not reach Pierce."

"I understand, but you can't just leave." Natasha Romanoff glanced at Tony Stark who was sleeping soundly. "At least you have to tell him."

Steve Rogers is also in a dilemma.Bucky was his best friend, and so was Tony, and he couldn't make an easy choice between the two friends.

"I won't let Bucky leave just like that." Daniel said, "Jarvis, cancel any authority of Bucky in this building, and let his scope of activities be limited to this floor."

"Okay, sir." Jarvis quickly responded, "It has been done as you ordered."

Both Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff looked at Daniel in amazement, obviously not expecting the other party to make such a move.

"Tony gave me the same authority as him, of course I have to use it." Daniel smiled lightly, "I hope he won't blame me for this when he gets up."

When Tony Stark woke up, it was already the beginning of the lights. He twisted his sore neck from maintaining a posture for a long time, and saw Daniel sitting on the other end of the sofa without any surprise.His cropped hair had grown back, and his wispy bangs fell down as he lowered his head.He was wearing glasses with a silver chain on the frame and holding a copy of "The Complete Works of Shakespeare" in his hand, which gave Tony Stark the illusion of traveling back to 20 years ago.At that time, they also got along like this. He was doing experiments in the laboratory, and Daniel was quietly reading a book beside him.

"You're awake." Noticing the voice from the sofa, Daniel put down his book and turned his head with a smile, "Are you hungry?"

Tony Stark, who had slept through the afternoon, touched his flat stomach and nodded honestly.He and Daniel were the only ones on the top floor. He didn't need to worry about his original perfect image. There was a slight milky sound in his voice. Iron Man lay on the sofa with his pillow in his arms again, and said, "I want to eat donuts."

"This is not a proper meal, Tony." Daniel walked into the open kitchen and warmed a glass of milk for himself and Tony Stark, and boiled a pot of boiling water for two simple pasta, "You need healthy Diet, I thought Jarvis would supervise you."

"I've been urging sir, Mr. Phillips." Jarvis's voice sounded in Daniel's ear, "but he never listened to me."

"Thank you for your explanation, Jarvis." Tony Stark blinked and said after a while, "Where's Barnes?"

"In his room," Daniel concentrated on stirring the meat sauce, "what's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Tony Stark pulled his hair and buried his face in the pillow again.He knew that his drowsiness in the afternoon was caused by Daniel, otherwise, in his state at that time, he might really have fought Bucky Barnes and Captain America.He didn't know why he suddenly acted like an asshole. It seemed that something amplified all the negative emotions in his heart. Although he knew intellectually that these things had nothing to do with Bucky Barnes, he still couldn't help but do it.

"Have you calmed down, Tony?" After pouring meat sauce on the cooked pasta, Daniel put tonight's dinner in front of Tony Stark, then sat next to him, and said, "Okay Come to have another conversation with me?"

"No, I refuse." Tony Stark picked up a fork and rolled a circle of pasta, "I need time to think about it."

"You didn't behave like you this afternoon, Tony." Daniel took a sip of the milk, "It's so abnormal."

"I know." Tony Stark wanted to remember who the man who told him the news at the charity banquet today was, but he found that he couldn't remember the face of the other party at all. It seemed that something was going on in his mind. This part of the memory was erased, the experience he had experienced when he reunited with Daniel at Arlington National Cemetery.The shrewd Iron Man obviously knew that he had fallen into someone else's trap. He pursed his lips and said, "Daniel, try to enter my mind, and I found that my memory has been deleted."

"Mutant?" Daniel straightened his face, "Are you sure it's a memory problem?"

Tony Stark nodded firmly.

Daniel quickly put down the cup in his hand, put his hand between Tony Stark's brows, and said, "You may feel a little dizzy, if you really can't stand it, you can tell me."

"I can bear it." At the beginning, he could even bear the news of Daniel and his parents passing away one after another, and a little physical discomfort was nothing.

Only then did Daniel close his eyes, and his mental power was input into Tony Stark's head along his fingers, and he began to search for that part of the lost memory.He saw Tony in a dark blue suit giving a speech at a charity banquet, his style was still so flamboyant and eclectic, but his eyes quickly turned to the other side, and through Tony Stark's sight, he and the man who only had The man who met once met his eyes.

Evil God Loki.

He quickly passed through the crowd, trying to catch the Shenyu man who dared to appear in front of him, but soon a pair of people in black suits blocked his way.Before he could react, Loki appeared behind him, raised his hand and pinched his head, a wave of energy poured in along his fingertips, and the truth about what Daniel encountered 20 years ago also flooded the world. in the brain.But soon this energy was withdrawn, and there was no one in front of him, and he only remembered the truth that was put in, and the anger that filled his heart.

In just a few seconds, Daniel had withdrawn from Tony Stark's thoughts. He slowly opened his eyes and said, "Loki is indeed on Earth."

"It's this cunning God's Domain man again." Only then did Tony Stark think of everything, "Even without his exaggerated theatrical scepter, he can still easily control people's hearts."

"We need to get the news out to other people, I mean, everyone else," Daniel said. "He's coming, we can't sit still."

Tony Stark wiped his face and said, "Of course."

Both Saul and Steve Rogers were a little surprised to find Loki's trace so quickly, but they soon understood that Loki had come prepared this time, maybe he had been involved in Hydra. Otherwise, it would be impossible to know the truth about Daniel's attack and Bucky's true identity so easily.

"He and the supporters behind him want to divide us." Steve Rogers said, "But Strack is dead, Alexander Pierce is now busy with the 'Insight Project', who is supporting Rocky's actions? , and provide him with so much information?"

"Hydra's sphere of influence is extremely wide, but those who can obtain such confidential information must be high-level personnel." Natasha Romanov said, "Could Strucker's death be related to this mysterious collaborator? "

"I must say, you guys are pretty smart." Loki suddenly appeared in the room, and Thor immediately rushed over to grab his brother, but his hand passed through Loki's body—the man standing in front of them The evil god is just an illusion.

"Do you think I will appear in front of you in real body, brother?" Loki smiled charmingly.

"What are you trying to do, Loki?" Captain America said gravely.

"Don't be so nervous," Loki said in an aria-like tone, "soon you will understand what my purpose is, and today is just an opening."

The evil god who finished speaking this sentence quickly disappeared from everyone's eyes, but his last words caused everyone present to fall into a moment of silence.
