[Comprehensive British and American] Super Mario

Washington State, Seattle.

The water vapor from the Pacific Ocean brings continuous winter rain to Seattle, known as the Emerald City, soaking every corner of the city, and the most dazzling Space Needle stands quietly in the rain.

As night falls, it means the end of the day and the beginning of the city's weekend nightlife. Seattleites who have been busy for a week put down their work completely and enjoy their different nights.And on such a night full of relaxed and joyful atmosphere, a train is passing through the rain and slowly heading towards Seattle from afar...

In a certain carriage of the train, a few passengers were scattered in the carriage, among them was a man wearing a dark brown coat and a blue-black baseball cap, with his hands in his coat pockets, sitting quietly close to the carriage At the position of the door, he turned his head and stared at the gradually bustling lights outside the window. The lights were projected on the window glass, and the vignettes of various colors were reflected by the drops of rain on the glass, which also blurred his vision.

"Steven!" A woman's voice came from the tiny communicator in his ear.

Steven reached out and pressed the communicator lightly, humming.

"I checked here... Half an hour ago, he appeared 0.5 miles southwest of the University of Washington... Judging from the tracking in the past few days, there is no doubt that he is looking for something related to genes." The woman said , "By the way, you should be almost in Seattle now, right?"

"Yes, it's almost there!" Steven looked out the window, with a hint of tiredness in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Natasha, what do you think... Hydra sent him to look for?"

"If you can catch him in Seattle, we will know the answer." Natasha said, "However, you'd better be hard-hearted. After all, we all know that he is being controlled again, isn't it?"

Steven pinched the bridge of his nose and said in a low voice, "I know."

"I have a list of professors who study genetics at the University of Washington. If I guess correctly, one of them should be the target of Hydra, that is to say..." Natasha stopped suddenly, and after a while , saying, "Hey, you know what I found?"

Steven looked out of the window at the steeple bell tower standing high in the rain and asked, "What?"

"There was an alarm five minutes ago. A burglary occurred at the University of Washington. The office of Professor Walter was stolen." Natasha said quickly, "And this Professor Walter is the leader in genetic science at the University of Washington. , especially in human gene cloning technology, has a very unique achievement."

"What unique achievement are you referring to?" Steven hung a large gray satchel on his shoulder, stood up and walked towards the car door.

Natasha said slowly: "Two years ago, Professor Walter used chimpanzee dander to create a complete clone. This chimpanzee cloned from dander is still alive."

The train was slowly entering King Street Station in Seattle. Steven looked at the approaching red brick building, frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "That's why Bucky appeared here. Hydra needs This professor's cloning technology?"

"It can be confirmed now that he should have succeeded!" Natasha hesitated for a moment, "It seems that it is one step too late."

Steven said nothing, just waiting for the train to enter the station in silence.

"Steven." Natasha hesitated to speak, and after a long while, she said in a comforting tone: "At least, compared to three days ago, you are already very close to him!"

The train came to a steady stop at King Street Station, and then the doors opened.

Steven walked out of the car door and said softly, "No, it's not enough, Nasi, I have to find him as soon as possible."

New York, Queens.

Mary lowered her head and walked slowly towards her apartment. A pair of feet wearing sneakers suddenly appeared in her field of vision, which seemed familiar.She stopped, raised her head, looked at Andrew who was looking at her with folded hands in front of her, twitched the corners of her mouth, showed a faint smile, and said, "Are you waiting for me?"

Andrew raised his eyebrows and said, "It's obvious, isn't it?" As he spoke, he handed the things in his hand to Mary.

Mary saw through the street lamp that what he handed over was exactly her pair of glasses that she had forgotten in Emilia's house, and she hurriedly took it and said gratefully, "Thank you."

Andrew shook his head and said, "Hey Mary, you're not alone, okay? I mean..."

"Andrew!" Mary said softly, interrupting him, "I know what you mean, I just... I just want to be alone... alone."

"Of course, you want to be quiet. Peter and I both understand this, so we didn't look for you! But, your so-called quietness doesn't seem to have any effect in my opinion, does it?" Andrew looked at it Mary, who seemed to be in a worse state, said, "Do you know how long I've been waiting here?"

Mary looked at him apologetically.

"So, you should treat me to dinner!" Andrew said confidently.

"Now?" Mary asked.

Andrew asked with feigned surprise: "Are you planning to change the day? No, dear Mary, I'm very hungry, very hungry. You know, if I hadn't been here waiting for you to come home, I might be sitting at May's dining table right now." , enjoy the delicacies made by Mei! Instead of starving and freezing here!"

When Mary heard him say "Mei's delicacies", the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily. Forget it, I'd better wait for him to taste the "Mei's delicacies" in his mouth, and now tell him Mei's real craftsmanship, I'm afraid this guy Nor would I believe it.She thought about it and said, "Okay, is this okay? If you don't mind, I can make you a simple quick meal at home."

Andrew raised his eyebrows and said dissatisfiedly, "Another frozen pizza in the microwave?"

Mary stared at him without saying a word.

Andrew thought for a while, and said in a compromise: "Okay, as long as it's edible!" After finishing speaking, he turned and walked towards Mary's apartment.

Mary put on the glasses Andrew had given her back and sighed silently.

Seattle, University of Washington.

Steven paused at the entrance for a while, staring at the school full of Gothic buildings, the drizzle fell on him, and there was a faint luster under the night light. After a while, he lowered his head Go inside along the main road.

A police car drove out of the school and passed by Steven. He turned his head slightly to glance at the police car in the distance, and continued on his way in silence. After a short walk, he saw a group of people gathered in front of a Gothic building. Looking at a group of people in twos and threes, they held umbrellas and talked in a low voice. He walked over slowly and heard a few people talking about the theft. They were all curious about it, because Professor Walter was receiving After hearing the news and rushing back to the school, I found that nothing was stolen in the office. Since there was nothing lost, there was no need to file a case, so the police left after routine inquiries.

Steven stood not far from several young men and women who looked to be students. He listened silently for a while, then turned and walked along the building that obviously belonged to the medical school. He stopped in front of the other door, quickly looked around, stretched out his hand to pull on the door, and stepped in.

As soon as the door was closed, Steven saw a black shadow, which quickly swept across the stairs, and then disappeared into the dark second floor.He was startled, and immediately chased in the direction where the black shadow disappeared. When he rushed to the second floor, he could only hear hurried footsteps in the dark corridor.

over there!Steven yelled at the black figure rushing towards the other end of the corridor, "Bucky!"

The black figure ran to the end of the corridor, and when he heard his cry, he stopped suddenly, as if he was looking at Steven who was rushing over, and then, before he was about to catch up, he stretched out his hand and pushed open a window at the end of the corridor. , put his hand on the window sill, turned over and jumped out.

"Bucky!" Steven yelled again, rushed to the window and looked down, the black shadow jumped onto the lawn downstairs, and ran towards the cherry blossom forest planted by the roadside, he didn't hesitate Stretching out his hand to grab the window frame, he jumped up and jumped out of the window.

The speed of the black shadow was very fast. When Steven landed on the ground and caught up again, the black shadow had already run into the cherry blossom forest and shuttled nimbly.

Steven watched the black shadow disappear into the woods in an instant, and he tried his best to run at full speed. However, the woods were very dark, and the cherry blossom trees were like stumbling blocks when he was not familiar with the environment. When I walked through the woods and stood by the small square of the school, I stood in the rain a little dejectedly, because the black shadow had disappeared.

The rain gradually became heavier.

Steven stood in the rain, a tuft of hair was wet by the rain and fell on his forehead, tightly pressed against his forehead. He calmed down the chaotic emotions in his heart for a long time, pressed the communicator, and said softly: "Nasi , I lost Bucky."

Natasha sighed and asked, "What's the situation in your place now?"

Steven was silent for a while, and said, "Professor Walter didn't lose anything, that is to say, Bucky didn't get what he wanted, otherwise, he wouldn't be here."

"Give me a few minutes, and I'll see if I can connect to the monitoring near the University of Washington." Natasha said briefly.

Steven walked towards the building of the medical school, and said without hope: "You try, but, you should know, Bucky has definitely escaped all monitoring and left, we have been tracking him, sir Most of the time, it’s not these surveillance that you rely on, is it?”

"Yes, I know." Natasha said: "However, don't forget, as long as a surveillance camera captures him, my system here can detect him through face recognition, filter and delete, just like before Know he's near the University of Washington, don't you?"

A look of deep thought appeared on Steven's face, and he said lightly, "Well, you're right." He thought about it, and said, "If he doesn't succeed, then..."

"Where are you going to stay?" Natasha asked.

Steven smiled bitterly and said, "Could it be, is there a better way?"
