[Comprehensive British and American] Super Mario

Fox Orphanage, kitchen.

"Thank God, you're finally back!" Maria looked at Mary walking in and asked in surprise, "My God, Mary, your neck..."

"Oh, my cervical spine is a little... uncomfortable... so I pinched it... I tried a little hard..." Mary said nonchalantly, and handed the apple in her hand to Aunt Maria.

"Really? I think if you have problems with your cervical spine, you'd better go to the hospital! Honey." Maria said and took the apple box. "It is said that most young people's cervical spine problems are caused by electronic devices."

"Okay, I will!" Mary watched her carrying the box to the dining table, followed suit, and said, "I don't know how many apples you need, so I bought a box first, and if it's not enough, I'll go buy some more now." .”

"Oh, these are enough, my dear, to be honest, even if they are not enough, I can ask you to buy them again." Maria paused, and continued: "You have been away for so long, I am so worried that I almost want to call The phone called the police, luckily!"

"I'm fine, I just... Well, I stopped by a nearby flower shop." Mary explained.

"But, since you were young, you never liked flowers and plants..." Maria put the apple box on the table and turned to look at her. "Isn't it?"

Mary nodded, well, that's true.But, Aunt Maria, don’t ask any more questions. If you ask again, I’m afraid I won’t be able to make up the reason why I went to the flower shop. She said to herself, but fortunately, Maria opened the apple box, and her attention was instantly refreshed by the box. the apples attract,

Maria reached out and picked up an apple, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "The fruit shop in this block is still the best at Stan's!" She laughed, "Thank you, dear, you did a great job! "

Mary watched as she picked some of the apples out of the box and took them to the sink for washing, and asked, "Shall I wash them?"

Maria turned her head and smiled and said, "Oh, I'll be fine. Can you and the children prepare the cartons?"

Mary had no choice but to nod, and walked out of the kitchen slowly, and returned to the activity room where the Thanksgiving food was being prepared. Just as she sat down to fold the cartons, she heard the music on her mobile phone playing again. The caller: Andrew.She picked up the phone and asked, "Hi! What's the matter?"

"Did you go to the Wakanda embassy in the United States today?" Andrew asked.

"Go!" Mary stood up and walked outside.

"You went?" Andrew exclaimed, "Hey, did you really go?"

"Yes, what's the matter? Why are you so surprised?" Mary asked puzzled, "Is it hell there?"

"Why didn't you know what happened there?" Andrew asked.

Mary frowned, subconsciously put down the phone from her ear, changed to hands-free, switched the call page to the background, and quickly clicked on the news software.

“Mary, did you really go?” Andrew asked again.

"Of course, of course I went..." Mary's words stopped abruptly. She watched the latest breaking news. Not long after she left there, terrorists attacked the Wakanda station with suspected alien weapons. US embassy.

"Wow, I doubt your answer!" Andrew said. "Honestly, did you not go at all?"

"I saw what you said!" Mary rested her forehead in annoyance, watching the news, "This happened after I left!"

"Really?" Andrew still didn't seem very convinced, "If this is the case, you are really lucky! Wait, this is not the point, hey! You went to the Wakanda embassy in the United States, and then? You Didn't you go to Captain America? Did you see anyone?"

Mary didn't answer his question, and said sullenly, "I hope that King T'Challa won't think that I'm with the terrorists who attacked the embassy!"

"Uh? What do you mean?" Andrew asked like a curious baby: "Have you seen the king of Wakanda? What about Captain America? Have you seen it?"

"You asked so many questions, how should I answer you?" Mary swiped her finger on the screen, quickly browsing other media's reports on the Wakanda embassy in the United States.

"Okay, you answer me first, have you seen Captain America?" Andrew asked.

"No!" Mary replied, and after a pause, "Let's not talk about this, Andrew, I think I need to calm down!"

"Calm down? Why?" Andrew asked suspiciously, "You confuse me!"

"Andrew, I'm sorry, I really need to calm down now!" Mary finished speaking in a low voice, hung up Andrew's phone, wiped her face, and walked towards the yard like a ghost with her mobile phone. This was really the worst luck day!

Before Zach Hoffman entered the Fox Orphanage, he saw Mary pacing back and forth in the yard outside. He raised his eyebrows slightly, walked towards her, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Mary raised her head suddenly, saw Zach appearing in front of her, she was stunned for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "Oh, you're here!"

Zach stared at Mary's neck and said displeasedly, "What trouble are you in again?"

Mary just wanted to shake her head and deny it, but when she touched Zac's eyes that seemed to have seen everything, she sighed and said, "Well, that's right, we are indeed in trouble."

"What kind of trouble?" Zach asked.

"It seems that I might be misunderstood, and I am with the group who attacked the Wakanda embassy in the United States today." Mary thought for a while, and said slowly: "Uh, well, this... actually seems to be It can't be considered trouble, um, it should be said to be worrying, after all, the timing of my going is too coincidental!"

"You went to the Wakanda embassy in the United States today? Why?" Zach asked.

Mary didn't answer, but just stuffed her phone into her coat pocket with her hands, shrugged, and said, "You know, for Captain America, the cable said he might be there, so I went to look for it." !” Of course, I found nothing, only saw the horror of the new king of the country of Wakanda.

Zach frowned and said displeasedly, "Mary!"

"Okay, I know I know!" Mary looked at him innocently and said, "I was wrong!"

"What did you do?" Zach stared at her seriously. "Would people think you were with terrorists?"

Mary bit her lips in annoyance. After a moment, she hesitated and said, "I entered the closed area of ​​the embassy privately, and was captured by the new king of Wakanda."

"You!" Zach glared at her after hearing the words, "Since you entered the media work, what have I told you, remember?"

Mary shrank her neck and didn't answer.

"Very well, it seems that you have forgotten!" Zach laughed angrily, "Or, I am not important to you, am I? That's why you can go in and out of your ears, and you don't take my words seriously at all." Something happened."

"No, I don't!" Mary retorted, "Of course I remember, I just forget sometimes..."

Zach's face sank, stared at her, nodded and said, "Very well, you still forgot my words at the critical moment, didn't you?"

Mary was speechless, lowered her head silently, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I..."

Zach stared at her for a long time, and said, "I'm already looking for news about Captain America. It won't be long before there will be news. Before that, can you reassure me? Huh?"

Mary raised her head slowly, seeing that his face seemed to have softened a little, she nodded obediently, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Oh, actually, I met Captain America today!"

"What?" Zach raised his eyebrows and looked at her in surprise, "You met Captain America? Where is it?"

"It's right here, and it's not far from here!" Mary said, and said with a little regret: "But, I was discovered when I was following them!"

"They?" Zac repeated her words softly, with a hint of doubt in his tone, "Captain America, with the Winter Soldier?"

"That's right!" Mary nodded, "That guy, I have to say, was really scary, so" she looked at Zach regretfully, "they left after warning me not to follow."

Zach thought for a while, reached out and gently rubbed her hair, and said, "I will contact your editor-in-chief and ask him to stop the work you are doing now."

"Why? No! Zach, don't do it!" Mary shook her head, reached out to grab his hand, and said pleadingly, "I know you're worried about me, but I promise I'll be fine, okay?"

Zach stared at Mary, who was pleading, and she looked at himself with hope. After a while, he said, "Remember when you were young, you almost fell off the roof to help Julie pick up the ball?"

Mary nodded and said, "Of course, without you that time, I probably would have gone to see God!"

Zach took Mary's hand back and said, "So, remember, if you do such a stupid thing again, I may not be able to save you now!"

Mary smiled obediently and said, "Got it!"

Zach got Mary's assurance, turned his eyes to the main house of the Fox Orphanage, and said, "You haven't come back here since Julie disappeared, why are you here today? Because of Captain America?"

Following his gaze, Mary also looked at Fox's main house, sighed and said, "No, it's not because of Captain America, but because of..." It's because here, in her heart, it will always be safe and reliable, and it is also the only... ...She smiled: "This is our home."

Zach glanced at her and said lightly: "We will find Julie."
