[Comprehensive British and American] If there is a world of cultivating immortals in Marvel

"It is reported that the press secretary of the White House has not yet given a clear explanation for the large-scale alien invasion that occurred in New York yesterday, but the preliminary disaster assessment of the attack has been released. The direct economic losses caused by the Battle of New York are at least 600 65 million U.S. dollars, excluding the indirect economic losses caused by subsequent repair expenses. At present, a total of [-] people have been confirmed dead, and the number of injured is being counted.

"For the Avengers who repelled the aliens, the public generally holds two views. Some victims thank the superheroes for protecting them, while others think that the destruction of the city is the responsibility of the Avengers, and they should pay part of it. responsibility……"

Turning off the TV, Gu Yaoyao looked at Xiao Jiuyi who just woke up

"Oh my god, I only realized how scary it was outside when I saw the news this morning! Fortunately, no aliens have entered the mall!" Gu Yaoyao was chewing potato chips.

Yesterday's New York Invasion Xiao Jiuyi came back 10 minutes after leaving the women's toilet, and took some food when she came back, so Gu Yaoyao took it for granted that Xiao Jiuyi went out to find food.

When the two came out of the women's toilet, the battle was over.

Now they are at Xiao Jiuyi's residence in Brooklyn.Yesterday's incident affected almost the entire area of ​​Manhattan, and Columbia University, which is naturally far from the city center, was not spared.Xiao Jiuyi and Gu Yaoyao's dormitory was broken into pieces, and Gu Yaoyao felt that she probably had no chance to see what Xiao Jiuyi's wardrobe looked like.

Because he didn't want to go to the temporary shelter provided by the government, the school was on vacation immediately, and Xiao Jiuyi happened to have a house in New York, so the two moved here last night.

Gu Yaoyao can only be thankful that all the valuables are on her body, and the important study materials and papers were also carried on the computer yesterday, otherwise she would have really lost a lot.As for Xiao Jiuyi, every time Gu Yaoyao saw her, she seemed to only bring her wallet and mobile phone.Compared with Gu Yaoyao's standard student attire, Xiao Jiuyi, who just transferred, seemed to be visiting Columbia University.

Although Brooklyn is not very prosperous compared to Manhattan, the prices here are much lower than in Manhattan. Gu Yaoyao, a poor student, expressed her satisfaction, and its tranquil atmosphere is also very suitable for people like Xiao Jiuyi.

"Jiuyi, what are you going to do on vacation?" Opened a new pack of potato chips, fragrant baked onions. "I've already booked my plane ticket back to China. After all, it's nearly four months of vacation! And New York seems to be not peaceful..."

After receiving the potato chips from Gu Yaoyao, Xiao Jiuyi tilted his head and pondered for a while, "I might stay here for a few days to get acquainted with the situation in the United States."

"That's right, you've only come to America not long ago." Although Xiao Jiuyi has been in Colombia for less than a month, Gu Yaoyao doesn't know much about her background, but she can be sure that she didn't live in the United States before.The main reason is that Xiao Jiuyi's standard English accent is very out of place in the United States.

"Then you should be careful. Last year, I basically spent my time in schools or busy places, but I heard that there are often robberies and shootings in those alleys in New York."

"En." Xiao Jiuyi responded, "Will you follow me to the next park later?" Xiao Jiuyi's house is located in a very good location, just next to Prospect Park in Brooklyn.Xiao Jiuyi saw the park when he moved in last night.

"What are you going to do?" Crunch, crunch.

"Go to see the scenery, enjoy the wind and so on...?"

"Heavenly hot, Jiu Yi, you really live like an old man" crunched, crunched, "I'm not going to go, I'm going to the mall to buy some American specialties, and there are a bunch of people looking for me to buy things like that. Previously The luggage was all blown to ashes, you have to bring something back, otherwise, why would you mess with my relatives." In a few words, Gu Yaoyao killed another bag of potato chips.When she wanted to get it again, she found that she had eaten all the snacks she bought in the morning.

"You're going to gain weight."

"No way, I think the only way to calm down my excited mood is to eat."

The two parted ways, Gu Yaoyao went shopping in an area not affected by the New York War, while Xiao Jiuyi walked slowly to Prospect Park with the book she was reading recently.

At ten o'clock in the morning, there are not many people in Prospect Park, but there are many people who come to exercise.People ran by in twos and threes on the sidewalk, sometimes followed by a puppy that came with them.Xiao Jiuyi found a shaded place, intending to waste the whole day like this, but he didn't notice that one of the people running not far away was running at an inhuman speed...

One lap, two laps, three laps...

When a person's breath appeared more than ten times in a row, and the interval was less than 3 minutes, Xiao Jiuyi would notice it no matter how dazed he was.

Steven Rogers, the legendary Captain America, has just returned from the Battle of New York.

The existence of the Avengers did allow this World War II veteran to begin to integrate into this strange world at first.Compared with the confusion of not being able to find his own definition when he was just thawed - Hydra was destroyed, World War II was over, what else could he do - this invasion made Captain America realize that even in "peaceful times" he is still People can be protected.But he still can't get used to the 21st century.Mobile phone, computer, comfortable life...

Although he doesn't yearn for it, fighting is indeed the life he is most used to.As for him who had just come off the battlefield, it seemed that he could only vent his emotions and calm himself down by keeping his body active.In fact, before Xiao Jiuyi came, Steve had been running here for a whole morning.

From daybreak to almost noon now.

"Hey! Do you want to take a break?" Sensing that Steve finally started to lose his breath, Xiao Jiuyi asked. "The weather is so beautiful, why not sit back and enjoy it?"

The obvious British accent sounded not far away, making Steve's pace slow down involuntarily.He looked at the girl under the shade.Unlike the irritable self now, the peaceful aura around the other party made him finally stop his legs.

"Hello."

"Hello." Xiao Jiuyi smiled, looked up at the man who came over, "Would you like to sit down and enjoy the beautiful lake view?"

"Uh, thank you." It's not easy to refuse the girl, and Steve sat down a little embarrassed.

"You look agitated?"

Seeing that Steve didn't answer, Xiao Jiuyi apologized, "I was the one to be abrupt."

"I just feel that you are very similar to me before."

"You before?" Steve looked at the girl next to him who seemed to be only 20 years old.

"It's like me before... I can't integrate into this world."

The girl's words could not help but arouse a sympathy in Steve's heart. "I... just feel a little... strange." His voice was a little dry.

"Because of what?"

"Because... everything changed so quickly."

"Hmm..." Xiao Jiuyi tilted his head and thought for a while, "Indeed, the world has changed too fast. To be honest, I'm not used to computers and mobile phones yet."

"That's why I came here with a book." She shook the paper book in her hand.

Thinking of the notepad in his pocket, Steve couldn't help but feel a little strange: This little girl in her twenties should have grown up in a technologically advanced world since she was a child, so why can't she adapt?But he didn't ask.

"Do you have any family?"

"...they've been dead for a long time"

"Feel sorry."

"Then do you have any friends?"

"Friends... maybe a few...but they are more like my comrades...my colleagues." Thinking of the Avengers, Steve almost blurted out the word "comrades".

He found that the girl who was enlightening him seemed to be not very good at communicating with others.

But it is true that at this time he and other people in the Avengers Alliance have a relationship that can be entrusted with their lives, but they will not share their troubles with them.And Bucky, who used to be able to talk about everything...

"Then you go and make some friends." Xiao Jiuyi's pure black eyes seemed to be able to swallow Steve, "Make a few just because 'you' is 'your' friend. You know, the best way to integrate into this society is to make friends." The best way to do that is to have a relationship with it."

Looking into the girl's eyes, Steve's heart, which was still beating violently, gradually calmed down.He realized that when everything cannot go back to the past, it is necessary to face the reality and take that step.

"So you want to start a relationship with me now?"

"What?" Steve was taken aback by the girl's sudden words.

"I'm introducing my book to you, do you want to accept it?" Xiao Jiuyi shook the book in his hand again.It's not a philosophical book with a profound feeling that fits the temperament of a girl, but a "General History of Modern Times".

This is indeed necessary for Steve, who has just arrived in the "future".

"Would it be strange to hold a modern history book?" Xiao Jiuyi said helplessly, "There is always a feeling that I am reading something that elementary school students understand."

"No!" Steve said quickly, "Actually...em...thank you. I really like your sharing."

"Then I'll lend it to you, and return it to me when we meet next time or when you finish reading~" Xiao Jiuyi narrowed his eyes with some pleasure, "Actually, I have read this book more than ten times, but Still amazed by what humans have accomplished over the years."

"indeed……"

Seeing the current high-rise buildings, Steve always has this sigh.

"Hey, come to think of it, have you heard of Iron Man, Captain America or something like that?"

Hearing Xiao Jiuyi mention his name, Steve couldn't help but tense his muscles, and began to doubt whether the girl approached him on purpose, and raised his vigilance that he had neglected before. After all, all this was too coincidental.

"What's wrong?" His voice was a little stiff.

"So you've heard of them? Since even you have heard of them, they should be famous..." The implication is that even people like Steve who have some interpersonal barriers know it, so Captain America And Iron Man is sure to be a household name. "Do they have great power?"

Because the girl used "power", Steve wasn't quite sure whether she was asking about the strength of the two people or their power.

"em...it should be..." A lot of things involved confidentiality, and Steve couldn't say anything more.After all, SHIELD is not an organization that can be known by ordinary people.

"After all, they are also in the Avengers." Compared with S.H.I.E.L.D., the Avengers should have been exposed in this battle in New York.This morning, including since the start of the war yesterday, their news has been frequently reported by various media. From the remaining cctv in the street, many battle videos about the Avengers can be screened out.

Steve feels that the number of media reports is already controlled by S.H.I.E.L.D.

"The Avengers...?" He didn't see Xiao Jiuyi's thoughtful eyes. "Then can you go to them for help if you have trouble?"

"Are you in trouble?" Steve asked concerned.I originally thought that the girl mentioned him and Stark for other purposes, but it is also possible that the girl just wanted to ask him to ask the Avengers for help. "Do you need my help?" For this girl who rarely resonated with him, Steve wanted to help her.

"Heh~" Xiao Jiuyi raised a smile, "Did you know that when you said you would help me just now, all the serious confusion disappeared."

"I don't have any problems, I'm just asking."

Before Steve could say anything, the girl got up, patted her white skirt, and ran away.

"See you next time, remember to read my book." Only one sentence remained.

From beginning to end, neither of them knew each other's names.

Maybe it's just because 'you' is 'you', friends.Steve looked at the "General History of Modern Times" in his hand.

From the beginning to the end, the girl's sense of incompatibility with modern life, which seems to be unaccustomed to modern life, was deliberately ignored by Steve.
