Dr. Warren is a little busy

It was almost noon when Ashe regained consciousness after a hangover.She was very sad to find that she seemed to have said too many things she shouldn't have said last night, and the last time she was drunk like this was before she decided to leave the United States.

How embarrassing, Ai Xi turned a few times on the bed, and usually worked so hard to maintain her image of a gentle and good girl, so it was almost all in vain.Alcohol is really misleading people, don't be greedy.

However, Ashe also knows that even if she drinks too much, she is not the kind of person who is irrational and drunk. The reason why she said so much nonsense to the Winter Soldier is because Winter Soldier is a boring gourd. Will go around spreading what Ashe said.And the second point is because she knew in her heart that the relationship between Bucky and her was only a little bit better than that of strangers, and she was destined to return to the ranks of "strangers" one day.

Just as Ashe said, the emotions contained in her body are much weaker than ordinary people. In her opinion, James Buchanan Barnes is just a consultant with a difficult life. He didn't have any extra thoughts, and he shouldn't have any.

Ashe got up slowly, took a shower in the bathroom, wiped her wet hair and opened the door, ready to go straight to brunch.Fortunately, she is used to receiving visiting consultants in the afternoon, she thought happily.

However, as soon as the door was opened, Ashe was taken aback by the tall figure standing in front of the door.The Winter Soldier who had been treated as a confidant last night was standing at the door of her room, staring at her expressionlessly.

Aixi was a little embarrassed, all the little troubles in her heart were known by the very indifferent man in front of her, and she said it herself.Although she was sure in her heart that this would not cause any bad effects, Ashe still found it difficult to face him.

"Good morning, er, maybe noon."

Ashe's greeting didn't get a response, she thought it over, and said cautiously: "What's the matter?"

"You had a high temperature last night. I'm not sure if there's anything wrong."

So, how long has he been standing here?Since last night you found that your body temperature was abnormal?Ashe was taken aback by her own understanding, and quickly discarded this somewhat ridiculous idea.

"I'm fine, really, that's just a blip of the alcohol. I promise I'm perfectly healthy. Um, I'm going to make lunch now, do you like pasta?"

Although he looks ruthless, Bucky is actually a good guy.Ashe quietly sent a good card to the Winter Soldier in her heart.

Before I knew it, Ashe and the Winter Soldier lived together for many days.During this time, the Winter Soldier finished reading the first book he borrowed, returned it to Ashe and borrowed the second.Ashe found that he seemed obsessed with psychology books, because the second one he borrowed was still her college textbook, and it was in the field of criminal psychology.

Ashe didn't think he needed to read this.What was his previous nickname?The most feared killer of the [-]th century?Or the scariest Soviet agent ever?

But it's one thing for Ashe to complain in her heart, she can still understand what the Winter Soldier thinks.In fact, he is very aware of his state and problems, and he is trying to find a way out of the endless maze in his heart, and the temporary stay at her house is just a short period before he makes a decision to solve puzzles and make the final decision time.

The Winter Soldier's stay didn't bother Ashe much, except for the first weekend of his stay.

It was Saturday noon, and the mutant girl Laura Joyce, who was still in college, had no class, so she landed in the foyer of Ashe's house very suddenly with her shiny blue portal.

At that time, Ashe and the Winter Soldier were sitting in the kitchen having lunch. Suddenly, there was a gust of wind. Before Ashe could react, the Winter Soldier had already pulled out a gun from nowhere and loaded it.

Ashe was so frightened that her eyes widened, she hurriedly held down the right hand of the Winter Soldier holding the gun, and shook her head desperately at him.

And Laura's voice came over immediately: "Ash, where are you? I'm here for a surprise visit! Oh no, do you have guests here?"

Ashe pressed the Winter Soldier on the seat, she replied to Lola, "Wait a minute, honey? I'll go to the living room right away."

She leaned close to Bucky's ear and said softly, "Stay in the kitchen and don't let her see you, otherwise she will find you with me as soon as she goes back to the college to teach."

As for her harboring dangerous elements or her cohabitation with men, which one will make Uncle Hank more angry?

After giving Bucky a "don't worry, I'll take care of it" look, Ash got up and went to the living room.Laura was staring at the men's short boots at the door, and when she saw Ashe coming, she couldn't hide her snicker, and asked enthusiastically, "Do you have guests here? I won't cause trouble for you, right?"

The identity of mutants is not easy to expose casually. Many ordinary people are incapable of accepting this. The US government even tried to drive them out in the last century.Even in the 21st century, their situation is not much better.If you insult a black man, you will be attacked by different organizations and groups, and you will be branded as racist and politically incorrect, but if you attack a mutant, people will only think that you are protecting yourself.

Ashe showed a standard but perfunctory smile and said, "A friend, just come to my house for dinner."

Luo La is a girl who has just turned [-] and is still living on the university campus. When she heard this, she immediately showed a clear expression: "Oh, I understand, I understand, I understand everything. Boyfriend, um ? Or a development object? Is he in the kitchen? Can I go and see?"

"It's not what you think." Ashe sighed helplessly, "It's just a friend. He came to me for help when he encountered some troubles recently. If you go back to the academy, don't talk nonsense, Han If Uncle Ke finds out, he will come over and reprimand me until the end of time."

Lola blinked, obviously misinterpreting Ashe's words, and the blond girl said in a prudish tone: "I understand, I promise not to reveal the news, and don't make silly daddy Hank sad. Even if the professor thinks about me, I will I will definitely not show it to him. But, can I get some inside information? For example, what is his name, where is he from, and what does he do?"

Ashe looked at Laura's expression full of thirst for knowledge, and knew that she would never be able to cope without saying something, so she had to bite the bullet and say, "His name is James, and he is from New York. He just resigned a few days ago because of a conflict with his boss. And the former rival company wanted to take the opportunity to poach the wall. He was also upset because of this incident and came to me for help."

Ashe is really telling the truth. The Winter Soldier, whose real name is James Buchanan Barnes, was born in New York, USA. He just got out of Hydra, and is worried about whether to join the Avengers.

Bucky, who was sitting in the kitchen listening to the corner of the wall, was a little stunned for a moment. Dr. Warren can really speak, and there is no false information in the whole sentence, but it is completely fooling people.

Laura gave an excited "wow" and asked, "How old is he? Is he tall? Is he handsome? Is he rich? How do you know each other?"

Less than a hundred years old, very tall, handsome, probably no money.I met in Stark Tower a month ago because of psychological counseling.

Ashe went through the answer to the question in her mind, and closed her eyes in despair.

"Seriously, Laura dear, don't get mad, but I gotta say it's none of your business. Please, don't think about it? He's really not my boyfriend, I swear to the professor."

Laura reluctantly accepted Ashe's words, but Ashe knew from the smile on her face that she was fooling herself.The news that Ash Warren had a rumored boyfriend from New York named James would spread throughout the X Academy within a week.

I hope Uncle Hank doesn't come over in person and just leave everything on the phone.This is Ashe's last prayer.

After sending away the winking Lola, Ashe felt extremely tired.She went back to the kitchen and sat down, staring listlessly at the half-eaten cream stew in front of her and sighing.

"I'm sorry to trouble you again."

Although the Winter Soldier remained expressionless, he sincerely apologized to Ashe.Aixi knew that although his face was a little stinky, but his intentions were true, he quickly waved his hands to explain.

"It's okay, it's not your fault. I'm not upset because Lola misunderstood you as my boyfriend. I'm just afraid that everyone will think I really have a boyfriend, especially the professor and Uncle Hank. You know, I'm talking with There are some obstacles in the development of relationships, but they have always been worried that I am alone in London, and hope that I can smoothly find a boyfriend and start a family. If they believe it, and then I clarify that this is not the case, I'm afraid they'll be disappointed. I really don't want to break their hearts, even though I'm doing it."

Bucky nodded silently, and the two of them ate in silence.After a while, he suddenly said, "You know what I heard?"

Ashe looked at him with a smile, nodded and said, "I know, I've heard that, like Captain America, your physical fitness is several times higher than normal. This place is so close to the living room, you must be able to hear it. Speaking of which, Among us mutants, there used to be a guy named Tingyin, he had super hearing. It's a pity that he wasn't on our side at that time."

"What do you mean here?"

"The history of mutants is a complicated story, and I don't dare to say that I fully understand it." Ashe put down the spoon, and told the history of mutants seriously, "You may have heard that after I became an orphan, I lived in the suburbs of New York. X Academy grew up. It was run by Professor Charles Xavier, a school for young homeless mutants. Professor Xavier had a friend when he was young, named Eric Rancher, but everyone usually Call him Magneto. The two of them had some conflicts about how the mutants should go on. There was a time when they were on fire. During that time, they each had their own supporters, and there were also conflicts between the two sides. There were quite a few fights. But that was a long time ago, after I went to the academy and the ten years since, the two of them haven't fought so passionately."

The Winter Soldier nodded, expressing that he listened carefully. As for whether he understood everything, it is unknown.

Ai Xi suddenly showed a wicked smile, moved to Bucky's side, and said, "I'll tell you a little secret, do you want to know?"

Ever since she got drunk once in front of Bucky and exposed a side of herself that she didn't usually show, Ashe has been a bit self-defeating in front of him.She no longer cared about her image, anyway, he was a boring gourd, and he had to leave sooner or later, Ashe always comforted herself like this.

Seeing her like this, Bucky slightly loosened the downward arc of the corner of his mouth, and then nodded slightly.He didn't care much about secrets, but he didn't want to spoil Ashe's interest.

"The Maximov brothers and sisters in your Avengers are actually mutants. You must know this, right?"

Bucky continued to nod. In fact, he didn't care too much about it. Ashe didn't say that he really didn't know.

"The father of the two of them is actually Magneto." Ashe said mysteriously, with a little pride in mastering the secret, "It's the one I just said, the professor's old enemy. This matter even Wanda and Peter Neither of them knew it themselves."

Bucky doesn't quite understand why this is a secret worth keeping, but he still nods obediently, indicating that he knows.After all, Ashe's mysterious and proud expression looked very interesting.
