[Zhongyingmei] It's not a slime!

Ruby had never encountered such a situation.

She admits that the moment she saw Steve, she suddenly panicked a little.

System: It's a bit like, when you were shopping with your current boyfriend holding hands, you suddenly ran into your ex-boyfriend?

Ruby: Bah!What a metaphor!I just……

It's just that I don't know what mood to face him for the time being.

Ruby suddenly realized: I get it, maybe it’s about dealing with old friends who used to have a good relationship, but now owe him money and can’t afford it for the time being?It's the kind where you want to meet but are too embarrassed to meet, the kind where you're embarrassed to meet.

System: ...Is your upside-down rubbish metaphor even more broken?

Peter listened to Ruby's words, he immediately quickened his pace, turned several inaccessible alleys in a random manner, and stopped by a special but well-reviewed dessert shop to buy a Black Forest, and then chewed On the side of the cake, it turned into a small alley.

"Did you get rid of it?" Peter asked while eating chocolate.

"I don't know...well, it's delicious." Ruby had completely forgotten that there were people chasing after her, and she wished Peter could eat faster.

"Then let's buy black from this shop next time..." Before he finished speaking, Peter stopped.

His spider sense made him aware of the abnormality the moment he exited the alley, and immediately retreated a few steps without hesitation, the black forest cake in his hand was still firmly placed on the tray, even a piece of chocolate crumbs did not drop...

Ah, no, a small crumb fell off.

Ruby: "Hey, hey, the cake is about to crumble!"

Peter made a decisive decision, and immediately a super-difficult monkey fished for the moon, caught the fallen chocolate crumbs with his mouth, and still held the cake firmly with his other hand.

After catching the debris, he immediately returned to his original position, staring at the black forest in his hand, for fear that it would fall off again.

Steve, who was standing not far in front of Peter and witnessed all this: ...

Peter swallowed the chocolate crumbs in his mouth before looking up at the stranger standing in front of him.

The other party stood against the light at the end of the alley, wearing a set of ordinary casual clothes, wearing a peaked cap and sunglasses, hiding in a shadow.His appearance was a bit abrupt, so Peter subconsciously maintained his vigilance and distanced himself.

"Uh, hello?" Peter couldn't see his face hidden under the peaked cap and sunglasses, so he could only greet tentatively, "Excuse me, could you please step aside? You're a bit in my way , Of course, if you want to enter this alley, I can also make way for you."

Ruby: "...God, what should I do? Is there still time for me to run? No, why should I run?"

……

Steve stood there for a long time in a daze.

The moment he saw Peter Parker, he was already vaguely sure that Ruby should be on this child.

Maybe it's a kind of intuition, or maybe it's the understanding of Ruby-who else has a sweet tooth like Ruby?

"...is that you?" he heard his own voice say.

He regretted it a little when he said it.

Shouldn't he be asking so bluntly?If Ruby was willing to see him, she should have already appeared, instead of hiding in the child's body without saying a word.

Steve had never felt so nervous before, and he didn't even dare to speak anymore, for fear that his trembling voice would be heard by others.

As Steve struggled, he saw a red light flash in Peter's eyes—a familiar, bright, jewel-like red.

In a flash.

Ruby who wanted to possess her but backed out at the critical moment: ...Yes, I’m cowardly, I’m so embarrassed, I don’t know what to say, otherwise I’d better play dead, maybe Steve just Just passing by? !

System: Just a little suggestion, how about next time you will be possessed by an ostrich?

Ruby: ...Suggestion dismissed!

Peter: "Uh... sorry sir, do I know you?"

Steve froze for a moment, took off his peaked cap and sunglasses, and looked at Peter with a pair of blue and gentle eyes like the shallow sea, full of complicated emotions, just like the black forest cake in Peter's hand at the moment, the sweetness and tenderness of the cream The bitterness of chocolate is rubbed into it.

He showed that handsome, familiar face all over America.

When Peter saw it, he was dumbfounded. He was stunned for a long time before pointing at Steve in a very impolite manner, pointing at himself, and said stupidly: "I...you...beautiful, beautiful ,beautiful……"

"Yes, child." Steve said helplessly, "It seems that she didn't tell you..."

Peter was dumbfounded: "Her? You mean..."

He doesn't remember how he might know Captain America's female friends. After all, he is just an ordinary high school student, and his friends should also be ordinary high school students.

and many more.

Peter's eyes widened.

He remembered that Ruby seemed to have told him that Captain America liked to watch that stupid show...

Could it be that……

Peter was stunned: "My God."

Ruby who hid in his body and pretended to be dead: "...Hmm."

"So this is true?" Peter, who didn't know what was hidden in it, felt that his brain capacity was a bit insufficient, "You know her...?"

Steve acquiesced.

"This has got to be the most unbelievable news I've heard this year, oh my gosh, me, me, I've never felt so close to the Avengers!" Peter was dumbfounded.

He even shared a symbiote with Captain America?Rounding up is a comrade-in-arms!

"Me and her...forget it." Steve hesitated for a while, but finally said nothing. He reached out and handed the bag in his hand to Peter, "You take this."

Peter took it stupidly, looked down, and found that there were all kinds of desserts in it, and many of them were limited editions from abroad, which could not be bought even with money.

"I know you don't really want to talk to me right now..." Steve looked at Peter and said, his eyes were full of tenderness and guilt, "I just want to make sure you are okay, and I'm sorry... I won't come to disturb your life."

Peter: ...? ? ?

He froze for a moment before realizing that Captain America was not talking to him, so he stood there awkwardly, holding the bag Steve handed over in his hand. Hastily called Ruby:

"Ruby? Ruby? What should I do?"

Ruby fell silent: ...

——"Do you want to bribe me with desserts! This is an insult to our symbiosis!"

She wanted to berate Steve so loudly, but he gave too much...

So Ruby said very spinelessly: "You, you just keep it..."

Steve watched Peter accept the desserts, and a fleeting smile appeared on his handsome face, and then he said softly: "I won't bother you for now, the contact information and desserts are put together , if you need any help in the future, please come to me anytime.”

After speaking, he took a deep look at Peter, put on his peaked cap and sunglasses, then turned and left.

If there are regrets, there must be.

He still couldn't meet the little symbiote hiding inside Peter Parker in the end.

But he was satisfied enough, at least, she didn't deliberately avoid him.

"that……"

Peter's voice made Steve stop. He turned his head and looked at the boy standing in the alley through his sunglasses.

Peter looked at Steve who was standing at the end of the alley, looking at each other against the light.

Beside him was the vast light of the setting sun, bright and dazzling, making the narrow and dark alley as warm as spring at this moment.

"She said . . . " said Peter, "thank you, and . . . "

Steve opened his eyes slightly.

"It's okay," Peter said.

Steve froze there as if the pause button had been pressed.

He stared blankly at the cramped and nervous young man in front of him, and before he knew it, he actually felt that his eye sockets were moist.

That, he thought, was the sweetest thing he had ever heard.

He stepped forward and hugged Peter tightly.

Peter:! ! ! ? ? ?

Me, me, I was hugged by Captain America!

Peter held the black forest cake with crumbs all over the floor in one hand, and a large bag of desserts from Steve in the other. His expression was frozen there, and his mind went blank, as if he had been struck by lightning.

Ruby inside him sighs, takes over and hugs Steve back gently.

The movement was very light, as if he was afraid of rubbing the cake on his clothes, and he simply touched Steve's body with his upper arm.

However, it was such a simple movement that made Steve hug him even tighter.

Peter: ...I-I'm out of breath!

After a while, Steve let go of Peter, took two steps back, and patted Peter on the shoulder.

"Thank you, kid," he said, returning to his tone as if he were recording an educational video. "Thank you for your help."

After speaking, he took one last deep look at Peter, turned and left, and disappeared at the end of the street that was gilded by the setting sun.

……

Peter seemed to be nailed in place, and he was stunned for a long time without moving, until Ruby slapped him on the head unbearably: "What's the matter, stupid?"

Only then did Peter react, his face was full of shock: "My God."

Today's unexpected encounter had too many pitfalls, and he didn't know where to start to spit it out.

So he fell into deep thought.

"Damn!" After pondering for a long time, Peter couldn't help cursing, "I'm such a fool! I didn't ask Captain America for his autograph just now!"

Ruby: ...look at the kid who's no good!

Peter beat his chest and stamped his feet, regretful: "Whoa, I'm a fool..."

"Why do you want to sign?" Ruby asked, "I didn't expect you to be his die-hard fan."

Peter said with some embarrassment: "No, it's useless for me to ask for an autograph, but his autograph can sell a lot of money on eBay."

Ruby: ...

system:……

Ruby was very relieved: Steve never thought that he was almost robbed, Peter is indeed my little brother!

"Didn't he leave his contact information?" Ruby said.

"Oh, yes!" Peter hurriedly opened the large bag of desserts that Steve sent, looking for contact information inside, but after looking for them, he and Ruby were attracted by the dazzling array of high-end desserts .

"Oh my god, this is Hugo&Victor's chocolate mille-feuille!"

"Pierre Hermé's macaron! My God, I dare not touch it anymore. If I accidentally break it, I will lose dozens of euros!"

"Opera cakes in Dalloyau! Gosh, I should have a dedicated cabinet to frame them for a display!"

Ruby was already overjoyed: "No, I'm going to pass away blissfully..."

System: "...To be honest, the two of you are able to recognize so many desserts from unpopular high-end brands, and it's not something ordinary people can do..."

When they turned to the bottom, Peter picked up three stones with strange texture and strange light from the bottom of the bag with a puzzled expression.

"What kind of dessert is this? It feels a bit hard." Peter muttered.

Ruby almost died on the spot: Unexpectedly, it turned out to be an alien energy body!A full three yuan, three thousand points of energy ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

System: ... what else can I say?Steve, God forever!
