Dean Charlotte said that Zuo Si was no longer in Brooklyn, but Bucky and Steve were unwilling to believe it, thinking that they could find Zuo Si's trace, but in the next few years, they spent a lot of time and energy , Searching the streets and alleys of Brooklyn, the two even took out all the savings they earned from part-time jobs, and published a missing person notice in the newspaper.

However, everything was like sinking into the sea, without any response.

In the blink of an eye, it was [-], and two years had passed since Zuo Si disappeared. Bucky and Steve both had their own lives to live, and it was impossible to focus all their experiences on finding Zuo Si. above.

In the past two years, the two of them have done all the things they should do. If there is a reward, Bucky can still hold on to the search, but they have spent countless energy but can't find any news about Zuo Si.

In the summer of 15, the [-]-year-old Bucky finally gave up and continued to search.

At that time, Steve was packing his luggage, preparing to take advantage of the rare vacation to search for another city. He was very busy, but Bucky on the other side had completely given up, and there were only two pieces of clothes in the backpack on the bed. , and there were many scattered luggage items piled up on the entire bed, the messy other party’s things on the bed seemed to be Bucky’s mood at this time, he looked at Steve who was putting Zuo Si’s sketch portrait into the bag, and finally Can't help but reach out and grab Steve's arm.

Steve, who is 15 years old, is still very thin, and his figure now looks no different from that of a seven or eight-year-old child. It took two years for Bakizhang to grow into a tall and strong boy, but it failed to make Shi Tiff also became as strong as he was.

After being grabbed, Steve was stunned for a moment, and then he turned his head and looked at Bucky. His delicate face was full of puzzlement, and his blue eyes were as blue as the sky. It clearly reflected Bucky's appearance.

"Bucky, what's the matter with you? Didn't we agree to go to another district today to find Grace?"

Bucky's complexion was not very good-looking, he took a few deep breaths, and finally calmed himself down. Having known each other for many years, he clearly knew how stubborn this friend of his was, and he also knew that if he decided on something, he would never Nothing would change, but even so, he had to give it a try, and he couldn't let his best friend spend everything on finding someone he would never find.

"Steve, I have thought about it carefully. I think we have been searching for two years. If it is really useful, we will not be as clueless as we are now. What Dean Charlotte said may not be a lie. If If Grace was really taken away by the National Experimental Department, there is no way to find her with our strength, are you really planning to spend all your time on this hopeless search?"

Bucky put the things that he hadn't said clearly in the past thoroughly on the bright side. He had said it implicitly a few times before, but Steve's stubborn temper kept him from letting him go. Now he The purpose of putting everything on the bright side is to make Steve give up searching completely.

He said a lot of things eloquently, but in exchange for Steve's silence, Bucky saw that the expression on the boy's face changed, and he couldn't bear it, but he had to force himself to put Steve in Get out of the current state.

This is what he should do as a friend.

Steve may not be clear about what Bucky said, but he understands it in his heart, but it is impossible to give up looking for Zuo Si. It would be fine if he knew that Zuo Si left by himself, but now she is clearly taken away by someone. Yes, she may be locked up somewhere waiting for him to rescue her, so even if there is little hope, he will not give up.

"Bucky, let me go."

Steve's voice was flat, and he couldn't hear any emotion. He looked up at Bucky, and there was a firm look in those beautiful blue eyes.

"I know what I'm doing. If you don't want to find Grace, I will find her myself. I won't give up."

His stubbornness has never changed, he knows exactly what he wants, and he can't persuade him.

Bucky slowly let go of Steve's grip, and he watched Steve put his head down and get to work again, and he watched Steve pack everything he needed into the box with him. Inside the big bag that is half the height of a person.

"Are you really going?"

"Ah."

Steve quickly packed up all the things, he nodded towards Bucky, but without saying anything, he turned around and strode out of the dormitory.

Seeing Steve's leaving back, Bucky's face changed a few times, and finally he cursed lowly, and stuffed all the things on the bed into his backpack.

Although he knew that what Steve was going to do was crazy and stupid, but he was going to help his friends anyway.

After Bucky packed up his things and came out, Steve reluctantly walked to the stairs. His figure was thin and his physical fitness was even more worrying. He couldn't tell when he walked on weekdays, but he just carried such a heavy weight on his back. Bao, after walking less than 50 meters, his true colors were revealed.

Bucky looked at Steve, who was leaning on the railing and panting heavily, and walked downstairs step by step. After a long sigh, he stretched out his hand and took the big bag that was about to crush Steve.

Without such a burden on his body, Steve regained some strength. He turned his head and looked at Bucky beside him. He saw that Bucky was carrying a big bag on his back and another big bag in his hand. As if about to go on a long trip, Steve showed a smile on his pale face, and said, "Didn't you say you didn't want to go? What are you doing now?"

Bucky sighed helplessly, stretched out his free left hand to help Steve, who was bending over and panting heavily, he sighed, and said in an exaggerated tone: "Didn't I risk my life to accompany a gentleman? You can't really let you go find her alone."

The relationship between the two is very good, some words don't need to be said too clearly, the other party can understand the meaning.

With Bucky's help, Steve was finally able to breathe slowly, and the two of them hurried down the stairs after their breathing became stable.

The two walked to the gate of the orphanage with their luggage on their backs. They happened to see Dean Charlotte coming from the opposite road. They didn't want to talk to Dean Charlotte, but they didn't know When Dean Te saw them, he quickened his pace and walked towards them.

"Steve, Bucky, wait a minute!"

If the other party didn't call their names, the two could pretend not to see them and leave. However, Dean Charlotte had already spoken, and it was not appropriate for the two to pretend that they didn't see them. They could only take back their steps and waited. In situ.

Dean Charlotte is more than 50 years old, but she looks like she is in her early forties. She is very beautiful, but because the earth has been sullen for many years, it makes her look harsh. Those beauties are also greatly reduced.

Dean Charlotte walked quickly, and within a short while, she was in front of the two of them.

When she saw the two packages in Bucky's hand, Dean Charlotte took a deep breath, with an ugly look on her face, and after she was silent for a while, she asked, "Are you planning to go?" do what?"

Dean Charlotte already knew what they wanted to do, and she asked this question just to confirm her guess.

It has been more than two years since Zuo Si disappeared. During these two years, Bucky and Steve have never given up on finding Zuo Si's trace. Dean Charlotte really wants to tell them the truth Two people, but the truth is too cruel. If you really want to tell them two people, they are afraid that they will receive a very heavy blow.

She thought they would give up completely if they couldn't find them everywhere, but she didn't know that they were getting more and more courageous. Looking at this posture, it seemed that they were going to go far away to find the person who could not be found. Dean Charlotte looked at them, There was a hint of struggle in his eyes.

Steve didn't hide it from Dean Charlotte. In fact, Dean Charlotte has seen everything they have done in the past two years. After thinking for a while, he said: "In the past two years, we We have been searching in Brooklyn for a long time, but we haven't found any trace of Grace here, so we want to search in other districts to see if we can find her."

Dean Charlotte has no way to understand their feelings. In fact, she only knew that their relationship was relatively close, but what she didn't expect was that their relationship was so good that Steve and Bucky spent a lot of money. So much effort to find that girl.

Dean Charlotte let out a long sigh, and then said, "If you continue to search, you won't find the person you're looking for. If that's the case, why do you waste your energy looking for her?"

Dean Charlotte meant something, but Steve didn't know what to do. He shook his head and said softly: "Thank you for your kind reminder, we know what we are doing, if there is nothing, then we will leave first."

Speaking of Steve, he wanted to pull Bucky away, looking at these two young people, Dean Charlotte couldn't bear to let them waste all their good time on this matter, he finally couldn't help but said : "The two of you don't have to look for her anymore, even if you search all over the United States, you will never find her again."

Dean Charlotte's voice came from behind. After hearing her voice, Steve only felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart, and his face changed instantly. After a long time, he just Having the courage to turn around, he obviously wanted to calm down, but now, he couldn't calm down at all, staring at Dean Charlotte for a long time, before he said: "What do you mean by these words? "

"Grace is dead."

After hearing the news of Zuo Si's death, Steve refused to believe it, but Dean Charlotte asked them to follow her to her office, and then she and he took out a few pieces from the secret compartment in his office. A photo was placed in front of the two of them.

The girl in the photo was soaked in a transparent container filled with liquid, and the girl they had been looking for for more than two years was soaked in the liquid.

These photos can completely confirm her death. After seeing such things, he seemed a little unable to accept the reality, and his face instantly turned livid.

He reached out tremblingly, wanting to pick up those photos, but those thin photos now seemed to weigh over a thousand catties, he tried a few times, those photos were picked up by him, and fell out of his palm It fell, and seven or eight photos were scattered on the table. The shocking situation touched his heart again and again. Even if Steve refused to admit it, the photos already explained everything. The one he had been looking for for a long time The girl is really dead.

Bucky's reaction was slightly better than Steve's. After two years of searching, he had already prepared for the worst, so when he saw these things, his reaction was not like Steve's. Steve was so old, he was also sad after knowing the news of Zuo Si's death, but he was much better than Steve who seemed like the sky had fallen.

Bucky kept calming Steve's emotions there, but now Steve couldn't listen to anything at all, his mind was blank, he stretched out his hand tremblingly, and put the spread on the table again. He picked up those photos, and after looking at them several times, he seemed to finally accept the reality. His face turned pale, and after he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood, he closed his eyes and fell straight down.

"Steve!"

Dean Charlotte obviously didn't expect Steve to react like this. She panicked and ordered Bucky to pick up Steve and send him to the infirmary. After a while, Steve went through the medical office. The doctor in the room rescued him and finally regained consciousness.

However, when Steve woke up, he seemed to have lost his soul. He lay blankly on the hospital bed, his mind was blank.

Bucky couldn't bear to see Steve like this, he wanted to persuade Steve, but things had already developed to this point, it seemed that there was no point in saying anything else.

After a long time, just when Bucky thought Steve wouldn't speak, Steve who was lying there suddenly said, "Is she really dead?"

After he asked this sentence, the atmosphere in the room changed again. Bucky didn't know how to answer Steve, and he fell into silence, but Steve didn't want Bucky either. He just lay there blankly, and after a long time, Steve murmured, "She's really dead."

Bucky has no way to understand the relationship between Steve and Zuo Si. When he first fell in love, Bucky also had some vague feelings for Zuo Si, but those feelings hadn't taken root yet, and the girl had already Missing, although he and Steve have been looking for her for two years after she disappeared, but probably because of not being together, his feelings for her gradually faded.

Although he was also looking for Zuo Si, in fact he didn't have much affection for Zuo Si anymore.

However, Steve is different. He seems to have put too much affection on Zuo Si. That kind of feeling is not the kind of feeling that Bucky thinks, but another kind of feeling. He doesn't know and doesn't understand Steve. Why does the husband have such deep feelings.

After hearing the news of Zuo Si's death, Steve fell seriously ill. If Dean Charlotte hadn't sent Steve to the hospital for treatment, Steve probably wouldn't be able to survive.

Steve stayed in the hospital for nearly two months. His physical fitness was not very good. After two months passed, his body became weaker. Now he seems to be As if a gust of wind could blow it away.

Regarding Steve's situation, Bucky didn't know what to say, and at this point, it seemed that nothing was right.

Two months later, it was already winter, Steve recuperated and came out of the hospital.

Steve, who came out of the hospital, seemed to have returned to normal. He didn't mention Zuo Si again. Zuo Si seemed to have become a thing of the past, and no one mentioned her anymore.

Bucky thought that Steve had forgotten about it, but for a few days every month, Steve would spend a long time alone in the grove where he and Zuo Si met for the first time. They all go there alone, and will not let Bucky accompany them.

Bucky felt a little sad in his heart. He knew that Steve was still thinking about Zuo Si, but no matter how much he missed him, that person was gone and would never come back.

But in the blink of an eye, 1937 passed, and soon it was 1938.

After 1938, the international situation seemed to become more and more serious. During this period of time, they often heard TV news reports on the analysis of the international situation, and the tense atmosphere spread throughout the city. , everyone doesn't know what will happen, but they will inevitably be affected by the general environment.

1938 passed in this tense atmosphere, and 1939 came.
