How to be a hero with Crispy Skin Cure
Chapter 9 Chatting
When Fiona opened her eyes again, she found herself lying in a hospital room.
What came into view was the white ceiling, and the needle was inserted in her left hand, and the ticking sound during the infusion was very clear.
On her chest, there is also a magnetic sheet that can monitor her heartbeat.There is a cold feeling on the face and neck, which should be smeared with medicine.
Caroline said that she will arrange a landing place for her, is it here?
She tried to sit up, but found helplessly that she could barely lift herself up.
"Is anyone here?"
She called softly, and the sound she could make was smaller than her usual voice.
There was no echo for such a faint sound.In this relatively spacious ward, she was overwhelmed by loneliness.
Fiona suddenly realized in this moment that she was truly alone in this new world.
No family, no friends, just tasks that don't know where to start.
She is only 14 years old, not yet of legal working age.In a strange city, maybe it would be difficult for her to support herself.
I don't know what happened to her family members in the original world.She's here, will they be looking for a while for her disappearance?
Probably, but not for long.Batman is so busy, he always has a lot to do.
Her departure would not interrupt their rhythm of life, and perhaps bring some convenience.
At least they don't have to be secretive about what they say at the dinner table.
The door of the ward was pushed open, and Fiona's body tensed subconsciously.
Two men came in, the one behind was stronger and taller.
Tony has been watching her movements on the monitor since she just woke up.She first looked around quickly, her expression didn't change significantly, and her heartbeat didn't fluctuate at all. She didn't seem surprised that she appeared in a strange hospital.
Her body was so weak that she didn't even have the strength to stand up.Just by looking at the way she exerts her strength, Steve next to her can confirm that this girl has not been professionally trained.
While she was unconscious, they arranged a comprehensive physical examination for her.
According to reports, her physical fitness is lower than the average level of normal people.Tony thought the girl was only 12 years old, but when the bone age was measured, she was 14 years old.
As for supernatural powers, they found nothing.She could have her blood drawn normally, and her fingerprints could also be taken, but through their global database comparison, no one's DNA data matched hers.Including relative genes, there is no similarity.
In other words, they could neither find out who the girl was nor trace any of her relatives, at least based on available data.
She seemed to have fallen from the sky.
Tony, who walked into the ward, noticed her gaze, as if she had been looking at Captain America behind him?
"Hey kid. There's Iron Man in front of you. Where are your eyes going?"
Tony opened the chair beside the hospital bed and sat down, snapped his fingers, "Come on, look at me, is he more handsome than me?"
Steve sighed habitually, and Tony started again.
He smiled gently at the girl on the hospital bed, signaling her not to be nervous.
Fiona's eyes drifted to the man who was talking, first at the watch on his wrist, then at the suit on his body.
A very rich man, and a little narcissistic.
This is Fiona's first impression of Tony.
She was looking at Tony, and Tony was looking at her.
Few people can still be so calm after hearing the name Iron Man, as if they don't know who it is.Even his watch and clothes are worth more attention to her than Iron Man.
Is she too good at acting, or does she really not know her?
How is it possible, even if the signal here is only one bar, as long as the network can be connected, no one will not know about Iron Man.
Unless she lives in a laboratory, or other more closed environment.
Fiona opened her mouth, and as Tony and Steve waited patiently, she spoke slowly:
"It's you, will you take me to the hospital? Thank you."
She speaks in a low voice and has excellent hearing.
Captain America can hear it clearly, but it's a little fuzzy for Tony.
Tony moved his chair forward and leaned forward.The sudden closeness made Fiona feel a little uncomfortable, and she subconsciously backed away.
"Are you nervous?" Tony noticed her movement and leaned back in his chair. "Relax, we won't hurt you."
He pointed to the switch next to the bed, "Do you want to sit up? It might be a bit strange to see us from this perspective. I have eaten a little more recently, and I hope I don't have a double chin."
The girl on the bed relaxed a little because of his teasing, and nodded in agreement.He flipped the switch, and the front half of the bed slowly began to lift.
Tony helped her adjust the position of the pillow, and Steve found her heart beating faster again through the instrument.
She seems to be very unaccustomed to contact with others and is very shy.
In fact, before entering the ward, they all tended to think that she was probably an artificial human grown in a laboratory.Maybe some new technology was used, or multiple genes were extracted, making them impossible to trace.
However, what happened just now overturned their previous conjecture.She seems normal, just withdrawn.
Tony chatted about the weather naturally, complaining that it was always raining in Europe.Although the girl spoke slowly, she could still keep up with his topics and ideas.They took advantage of the opportunity to chat about the history of Europe, and the girl was able to answer the questions fluently.
He deliberately talked about the more unpopular parts, and he couldn't help the other party.Especially when it comes to aristocratic etiquette, she can even correct one of his slips of the tongue.
Her heartbeat stabilized, and she seemed to be gradually letting go of her guard.
"It's a pleasure chatting with you." Tony asked her, resting his chin on one hand, "Son, what's your name, and is there any family member who can be contacted? I'll let them come and pick you up."
Fiona paused.
family...
None of her family is here.
"Fiona, my name."
"Nobody can come get me."
She didn't say her last name.Maybe there were other Wayne people in the world, but none of them were part of her family.
They are unique.
"Fiona." Tony avoided the family's questions considerately, and repeated the name, "It's a nice name, it suits you very well."
Is it suitable?Fiona herself didn't know.
Her name has no special meaning, it is very ordinary, just like her life.
Tony then asked, "Fiona, are you from here? Me and the guy next to me are from New York."
In fact, Fiona could only tell from the conversation just now that this was a small country in Europe, but she didn't know the exact location.But at least it can be proved that the geographical regions of the two worlds may be the same.
They were probing her, and she was absorbing the information they revealed.
"I'm from Gotham," she said.
Gotham?
Tony and Steve glanced at each other, seeing doubts in each other's eyes.
A place name I have never heard of. Is there such a place on earth?
"Which country is it in? Sorry, I seem to be a little ignorant."
He said just now that they are from New York. Will there be Americans who don't know Gotham?
Fiona's expression was not very good.She quickly guessed that there is no Gotham in this world.
Mistake, this is the bottom line.
She couldn't make up a place called Gotham.As long as they check it casually, she can't help it at all.
Sure enough, the man who claimed to be Iron Man immediately asked her: "I think, maybe Gotham isn't on Earth?"
About to be discovered?
Fiona was tense again, and an EKG showed her heart beating violently.
Steve reassured, "Fiona, take it easy, you don't need to be scared. It's okay, it's okay if you don't feel like talking right now. We're not interrogating you, so take it easy, okay?"
Even if Fiona doesn't know Captain America, she can feel an inexplicable sense of security through his voice.
He only needs to stand there to be trusted.
Fiona nodded slightly.
But she was still a little flustered.What to do, she couldn't tell the origin at all.
Fortunately, they did not continue to ask him.Tony took the opportunity to introduce himself to her:
"I'm Anthony Stark. You can call me Tony. I'm Iron Man. The one next to him should be able to guess his identity by looking at his size."
Steve smiled and was about to say something when Tony said, "Yes, this is my bodyguard."
Steve: .
He could only say awkwardly and politely: "I'm Steve Rogers, just call me Steve."
"Just kidding, he's my friend." Tony winked at her, "He's very expensive, I can't afford it."
"Tony—"
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about him. This old man has no meaning at all."
Tony turned the topic back to her, "You little girls will not be able to find someone like this in the future. Anyone who is with him will probably suffer a lot. Even drinking an iced Coke will be stared at by him. He really deserves it. Still single."
"Tony, Fiona is still young, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't bring bad children, okay?"
"Please, go out and look at the calendar. It's the 21st century now. What's wrong with listening to the topic of dating in advance, and girls should have this awareness earlier, so that they can keep their eyes open in the future and not be cheated by men."
Listening to the quarrel between the two of them, Fiona smiled unconsciously.
She whispered, "It's okay, I don't drink iced Coke. I like hot milk."
In fact, she didn't like to drink at first, but Ah Fu would always bring her a glass.
Being able to drink the milk obediently is one of the few times when she can get praise from her family, and she cherishes it very much.
Once you get used to it, you like it.
"My God, there are really young people who like to drink hot milk!"
Tony never liked milk since he was a child, he always thought it tasted weird.In his impression, only infants and old people like Steve would drink these.
Coke, fruit juice, and alcohol after adulthood, which one is better than milk.
"You will be healthier if you drink milk." Steve looked at her with admiring eyes, "Fiona, your habit is very good, you can continue to maintain it."
The three continued to discuss the topic of drinking milk. The atmosphere in the ward became more and more harmonious, and Fiona smiled more and more.
She is obviously not someone who can open herself up easily, but for some reason, she feels very relaxed getting along with them.
Iron Man is very humorous, always using some exaggerated descriptions to make people laugh.He is very good at chatting with girls, even if he doesn't mention some topics between adults, what age group of women can refuse his compliments.
Steve has a very different personality than Iron Man.He didn't talk much, and Fiona knew that he was watching her all the time, but this kind of gaze was so gentle that she couldn't resist it.
Time passed unknowingly.Tony glanced at the watch on his wrist. They had been in this ward for an hour.
"Fiona, you should rest first. We have other things to do, so I'll see you later."
Tony got up and said goodbye to her, "If you need anything, just ring the nurse's bell beside the bed. Your body is still very weak, so let's take care of it for a few days before talking. You don't have to think about other things, you know?"
Are you going?
Fiona felt a little lost.
She raised her palm and waved at them.
"Thank you, Mr. Stark, and Steve. I will rest well."
Tony was not convinced: "Wait, why is he Steve and I am Mr. Stark?"
Fiona was speechless.
Steve should be younger(?), and Mr. Stark, he should be about the same age as her father.
She couldn't call him by his nickname directly, she couldn't.
"Tony, go and look in the mirror." It was rare for Steve to see him deflated, and he was very upset.
She teased him nicely and said, "You look like you can be her father, Fiona would like to show her respect to you, is there a problem?"
Tony looked at her in disbelief. "Fiona, do you really think so? Please, tell me otherwise."
Fiona pulled herself back under the covers, her eyes staring at him.
"I rest."
She pulled the quilt up, covering her entire face.
Under the clean and soft blanket, she could still hear Steve holding back his laughter, and he was advising Iron Man, "Forget it, let's go. Don't disturb Fiona's rest."
The door of the ward was quickly closed, and silence was restored in the room.
Fiona felt that she was not so alone.
Caroline was right, she was starting to like the world a little bit.
What came into view was the white ceiling, and the needle was inserted in her left hand, and the ticking sound during the infusion was very clear.
On her chest, there is also a magnetic sheet that can monitor her heartbeat.There is a cold feeling on the face and neck, which should be smeared with medicine.
