[Captain America] Don't force me to grab a man with you

"I still remember that many young people like to try new dating methods. The golden sandy beach by the sea, the tree-lined road in the dense forest... We have caught up with a trend. I think this should be the most innovative dating method."

Across the thin glass wall, Ingrid stuck her entire palm on the glass wall, and on the other side of the wall was the Winter Soldier wearing a mask and sticking her palm on the glass wall.

The two of them put their fingers together through the transparent glass wall.

The color of his eye sockets has increased a bit, and the blue eyes seem to be soaked in water, which is inconceivably moist.

This is just a microcosm of ordinary life. The middle-aged general promised Ingrid to guarantee the most basic meeting between them, but it was only guaranteed to meet through a glass wall without brainwashing.

Occasionally, the Winter Soldier couldn't suppress it and bombarded the glass wall with his fists frantically. In fact, as long as the research institute didn't stop the power supply, the glass wall would be indestructible. Even in the face of bombardment, it would not be destroyed Destroy nothing.

Therefore, the Winter Soldier, who knew that he was wasting his energy in vain, also calmed down, and moved to the glass wall as soon as he completed the task.

Either bloody, or murderous.

This is the quietest time of his day.

Ingrid smiled and talked to him for a while, just like facing Tony, making up a few fairy tales and telling them in the most gentle tone, and then slowly said good night to those clear eyes. The glass wall stretched out his hand to stick it, and the Winter Soldier pressed his head on it in cooperation, closing his eyes.

Through the glass wall, she made a gesture of stroking his head, and kissed the wall, just like the countless days and nights they had been together before.

Then another good night's sleep.

The only pity is that the Winter Soldier hasn't spoken a word since then.

Such a silent Winter Soldier made her extremely uneasy. There seemed to be a flame burning in his eyes, and if he was not careful, he would burn himself out.

This appearance of the Winter Soldier made Ingrid's heart ache. She was taciturn and leaned against the glass wall every time she returned from a mission. She couldn't bear to blink her eyes, just staring at her closely.

Although they didn't talk to him, an agreement was naturally formed between the two of them. No matter how far his mission goal is, he will never exceed a week. After a week, he will definitely return to England alive. Reid's side.

Just to be able to get back to Ingrid for those few hours.

Such a rule was broken one day after three months.

Ingrid hadn't seen the Winter Soldier for almost a month, and no one had brought her food since last night.

She pushed the invisible boundary in front of her a little irritably, stuck to it and squinted, trying to see if there was a familiar figure at the end of the corridor.

After going back and forth several times, Ingrid, who was finally tired from tossing around, simply slammed into the middle of the room.

This is not normal.

Thinking so, Ingrid turned around and shook her arm at the camera installed at the foot of the wall.

"anyone there?"

"Can you see me?"

"Can you tell me what happened to the Winter Soldier?"

Ingrid was stunned for a moment, and the uneasiness in her heart became more intense. She sat on the ground, propped her limbs on the wall, and crawled bit by bit towards the camera at the foot of the wall.

In the past, when she moved close to the camera, it wouldn't be long before someone rushed in from the outside, pinned her to the ground, and asked her what she wanted to do.

However, now that she is leaning very close to the camera, no one comes in to stop her from outside.

This is not right.

The entire research base fell into a terrible silence.

The original researchers seemed to disappear overnight without a trace.

Ingrid moved closer to the camera and observed carefully, only to find that the indicator light at the rear of the camera was not on, which indicated that there was no power on.

If there is no electricity here, it can only mean that the entire research base has lost the power supply.

Why is this?

While being puzzled, she also felt a burst of joy, because there was no electricity, which meant that the glass wall in front of her was just a layer of pure glass, which could be broken by artificial force.

She hasn't waited for her to implement her idea.

Puff.

The air duct above her head suddenly sprayed water, drenching her from top to bottom.

"Oh, suit!"

Ingrid, who was sprayed all over by the sudden water, cursed angrily, brushed away the wet hair sticking to her face, and looked up.

Then, another burst of water gushed out, pouring directly into her nasal cavity, with a strong earthy smell.

"Hey, what's going on?"

Ingrid jumped off the wall, yelling at the camera at the foot of the wall.

"Why is there water pouring in from the ventilation pipe?"

No one responded to her words, only more and more water gushed out, and it didn't take long for the water to spread along her toes to the instep of her feet, and it didn't take long for it to reach her ankles.

The speed of the water rising was beyond her expectation, and it rose to her waist in less than a while.

"My God!"

After waiting for a while, no one came to rescue her. Ingrid understood that the only way to escape this room was to save herself.

The only piece of furniture in the room was the bed. She reached out and twisted the foot of the bed vigorously, trying to unscrew a piece as a tool to hit the glass wall.

"The bed is a whole, and it has to be fixed on the floor..."

With the buoyancy of the water, Ingrid was not able to break off a piece of the bed. Instead, she forgot to use too much force to open all her nails.

She also tried pushing the bed against the glass wall, only to find that the foot of the bed was firmly fixed to the floor and could not move.

In the end, she could only step on the bed and tiptoe to avoid the rising water.

Within an hour, Ingrid was floating with her feet off the ground, her head pressed against the ceiling, drawing air from the little space left between the water and the ceiling.

"The waterproofness of their cell is unexpectedly good, and it is hard to use electricity, and there is a chance to break the glass..."

Ingrid smiled self-deprecatingly, and then a person's face flashed in her mind. It seems that people tend to think of the people they cherish when they are about to die.

Yes, she suddenly remembered the Winter Soldier's face.

An indescribable soreness suddenly surged from the bottom of her heart, and while water kept pouring into her nasal cavity, tears flowed from her eye sockets because of fear and sadness.

She didn't even know if she was losing fluids or gaining fluids.

She just knows.

She wants to meet the Winter Soldier.

Ingrid turned her head and looked at the glass wall that was almost flooded.

When the water surface rises to the highest point, it will be the time when the pressure on the glass wall is the greatest. At that time, if the force is enough to hit a point of the glass, it may be possible to break the glass wall in front of you.

But you only get one chance.

She wiped the tears from her face, looked at the glass wall not far away, and cheered herself up.

"Ying...Grid..." His teeth chattered up and down because of the icy water, "You...you...you can do it."

After finishing speaking, the moment the water surface fully rose, she took a deep breath and sank to the surface.

The pale green world enveloped her eyeballs, and the sound of water flowing away was far away from her, only the sound of gurgling continuously pouring into the eardrums.

Ingrid, who was pressured by the water and took a breath, spread her arms and legs, swung and struggled to swim towards the glass wall.

The white light outside the glass wall became fragmented under the cutting of the water surface, and she felt nauseated from the pressure of the water.

near, near.

Ingrid stared at the mottled light traces, and stretched out her hand in confusion, but encountered a barrier.

Ingrid was so excited that she couldn't restrain herself, she clenched her fists and hit the glass wall with all her strength.

However, she misjudged the effect of the water pressure, and her fist, which was going all out, hit the glass limply like a piece of cotton candy.

The oxygen in her lungs was getting less and less, her eyes became more and more blurred, and cold water kept pouring into her nasal cavity, from her nose to her lungs, it was like being burned by fire, and the pain was severe.

There were also bursts of black light in front of him.

She knew it was a symptom of lack of oxygen to the brain.

The more strenuous the movement, the more obvious the symptoms of hypoxia will be.

While Ingrid kept choking on water, she felt herself crying in sorrow and despair.

He wanted to call for help, but when he opened his mouth, there was a grunting sound.

【Help me, who will save me! 】

【Bucky!Bucky! 】

She desperately pushed the barrier in front of her, the more she found it indestructible, the more desperate she became.

After that, it appeared in front of her eyes like a revolving lantern, and different locations, blue eyes with gentle smiles, or blue eyeballs with murderous aura, appeared one by one in front of her.

Suddenly, through the reflection on the glass, a pair of blue narrow eyes appeared in front of her.

【Bucky, Bucky, save me! 】

Those eyes were fixed on her tightly, several cracks separated them, and then there was a bang, and the glass suddenly shattered.

Ingrid's world suddenly plunged into darkness.

A moment of darkness, a moment of light, seems to be completed only in a breath.

Ingrid stretched out her fingers and grasped in the air with her open hands in vain.

Then, in a daze, she felt a warm object being stuffed into the palm of her hand, and she woke up in an instant.

The light blue eyes in the dream are looking at her tenderly at this moment.

There was a warm touch on the face.

Huge fear invaded her mind in an instant, she rushed forward and hugged the body of the man in front of her tightly, crying loudly with no image.

"I thought... I thought I would never... never see you again."

The man's body stiffened, and then he hugged her body back and stroked her back again and again.

Ingrid finally regained consciousness from the fear, the red liquid in the palm of his hand immediately attracted her attention, and the red blood flowed out of his body bit by bit along the water flow on the ground.

"You are hurt!"

Ingrid yelped, pushing the Winter Soldier away and groping around him.

The Winter Soldier shook his head as he pressed her hand that was groping around him.

"It's not a wound cut by glass, right? A wound cut by glass doesn't bleed so much."

Speaking of which, Ingrid pulled her hands and wanted to continue touching his body.

The Winter Soldier pressed her hand again and pointed behind her.

I don't know when it started, the ventilation pipes in the corridor are also gushing water.

A thin layer of water had already accumulated on the floor of the corridor.

"How is this going?"

The Winter Soldier didn't speak, and the face hidden behind the mask couldn't see the expression on it clearly. He stood up, pulled Ingrid up from the ground, and signaled her with his eyes.

Ingrid twisted her ankle and nodded at him.

"It's okay, I can go."

Ingrid, who had calmed down, began to observe the surrounding environment while walking.

The original lights in the corridor have been extinguished, and the white light of the emergency light shines on the water.

From the mouth of the middle-aged general, I learned that the emergency lights will only light up when the backup power supply is supplied, and judging from the smell of the water pouring into the nasal cavity just now, the water pouring in from the ventilation pipe should be in the reservoir not far away. of water.

Ingrid suddenly had a bad feeling.

The backup power supply can last for about 2 hours, and the water in the reservoir relies on the electric motor to prevent it from flooding into the underground research institute.

The pace of the Winter Soldier leading her was getting faster and faster. In the end, it was almost him who dragged himself and ran in the corridor.

Ingrid wanted to ask, but seeing him frowning outside, the words in his mouth were swallowed back.

I don't know how long I ran.

The Winter Soldier stopped suddenly and turned into a room.

The room was lined with towering pot-shaped buildings, and he carried Ingrid straight to the last pot.

By this time, the water had spread to Ingrid's thigh.

Before Ingrid could see the words marked on the outside of the jar, he opened the outer door and pushed her in.

The bad premonition became stronger, and Ingrid stood at the door, watching him.

"Wait... wait, what are you doing?"

The Winter Soldier froze for a moment, then without hesitation he took off the mask from his face and put it directly on her face.

Ingrid's eyes went dark, she didn't seem to think that he would do this, and she froze in place.

"Now it's my turn..." After months of silence, the Winter Soldier finally said a word, and curled up his mouth to give her a nondescript smile.

"It might be a bit uncomfortable later on because you're going to be pumped through this pump."

Hearing this, Ingrid understood what he was going to do, and struggled crazily.

The Winter Soldier hugged her fiercely, pressed her into his arms, and pressed his face to her ear.

"Calm down...Calm down."

This was a gentle tone England had never heard before, and she stopped struggling for a moment.

"The pipe can only pass through one person, so you go up first, and I will follow right away."

Hearing this, Ingrid could be regarded as completely quiet. At first, she thought about hugging for a while, but the deeper and deeper water did not allow them to continue to dawdle like this.

The Winter Soldier pushed Ingrid out of his arms first, and then put it into the jar with his hands on the side of the door, which didn't close immediately.

The veins on the fingers on the door bulged, he hesitated for a while, and finally lifted Ingrid's face, and kissed him through the mask.

It was the first time he kissed her without reminding her, and she froze.

A boyish smile appeared on the man's resolute face, which echoed his clear blue eyes.

"I'm much luckier than Bucky. It was Steve who was by his side in the end, and you are by my side now."

This suggestive sentence made Ingrid dumbfounded. On the one hand, he was surprised that he thought of his best friend, and on the other hand, he was still jealous of himself.

"Ingrid..."

The man suddenly stopped her.

"Ok?"

"I want to go to Italy, Rome, and the Netherlands to see the tulips you mentioned, and the slowly spinning windmills..."

"In the future we will have a chance..."

"Gerry..." the man interrupted her.

"Ok?"

"I love you."

The sudden lingering confession made her stunned, before she could react to it.

With a bang, the door in front of him was closed.

As if time has been slowed down, the moment the door is closed is so slow, so dazzling, the familiar and deeply loved faces are slowly blocked behind the door.

At that moment, her heart palpitations made her involuntarily take a few steps forward, leaning against the door.

The small glass window on the door was wet by the water flow, making it impossible to see the outside scene clearly, and could barely see a blurry black shadow swaying outside.

Then, the glass window suddenly went dark, and Ingrid pressed her palm on it knowingly.

On the other side, the Winter Soldier, who was pressing his hand on the glass window, pulled down the handle next to the water tank without hesitation.

Ingrid felt her body lighten suddenly, and the water around her instantly surged up, completely submerging her in it.

This feeling is very strange, obviously her whole body is immersed in the water, the water flows into the mask on her face, but the moist air comes out.

Like a 'gill'.

Immediately afterwards, there was a strong pulling force. She felt that she was being squeezed by the water pressure, but the pressure was just maintained at a level she could accept.

Then it was like being thrown into a front-loading washing machine, being thrown back and forth in circles up and down, left and right.

If it weren't for the mask on her face, she could have squeezed the air out of her lungs during such intense 'exercise', and then could have suffocated without oxygen.

In this way, after the surrounding water calmed down, Ingrid unfolded her body and slowly floated up along the rising water.

"Huh...huh..."

Ingrid, who surfaced, took off the mask on her face and took a few deep breaths.

Smiling, he turned his head and looked around for him on the water.

After waiting for a while, nothing appeared on the water.

Ingrid tried her best to suppress the uneasiness in her heart, put on her mask and sank into the water, looking around in the water.

No, no, none.

"Miss, what are you looking for?"

A glaring light interrupted her search, and Ingrid suddenly came back to her senses, only to realize that the sky had already darkened unknowingly.

"What can I do for you?"

The voice behind her was getting closer, and Ingrid turned pale in the water.

The light from the flashlight swept across her body.

"Oh! It's a soldier from the former Soviet Union!"

The boat, which was still hesitant, speeded up and rowed towards her when the light of the flashlight shone on her chest.

"Wait... wait, you said the former Soviet Union?"

Ingrid slammed the mask off her face.

"Yes, what's wrong? The Soviet Union declared its disintegration a month ago, and it should now be called the Russian Federation..."

This sentence exploded in her mind like a thunderbolt.

"It turns out...that's how it is...this...is this the reason?"

It all makes sense, his injuries, his last confession...

The demise of a country will inevitably disappear from the world with its things that cannot face the world.

The purpose of the pipes leading to the reservoir is to bring in the water when the country ceases to exist, and then sink the secret forever.

How could that pipe not pass through two people.

So he gave her the mask because he knew he would never use it again.

The author has something to say: Love is that even if I am dead, you will be in great pain living in this world, and I hope you can continue to live.

My sixteen chapters have been changed a lot, about the relationship between Bucky and the Winter Soldier, let's take a look.

ps In the next few chapters, Bucky will temporarily leave the stage. If you don’t like to read other readers, don’t read this part.
