The Third Winter Soldier

After the obviously one-sided competition, Charlie began to "harass" Lilith continuously, the core content of which was mainly... apprenticeship.

Lilith is not willing to teach Charlie at all. First of all, she thinks it is too troublesome to teach people boxing kung fu. Secondly, she is used to only concentrating on one thing. What she needs to do now is to be Rosen's bodyguard and ensure his safety. Safety; the last point is also the most important point, she thinks that a big boy like Charlie is just a whim, facing the temptations of the colorful world, his point of interest may soon shift, so she is not interested and there is no need To cater to such a whim.

However, she underestimated Charlie's determination to learn martial arts from her.

A few days later, around ten o'clock in the evening.

Lilith drove the car, brought the slightly drunk Rosen out of the banquet, and sent him back to the villa safely.As soon as she stopped the car, she saw a person sitting at the door of the villa. She was taken aback, squinting slightly at the figure sitting in the backlight, Charlie?

Rosen leaned on the back seat and pulled the tie around his neck uncomfortably, and asked, "Are you home?"

"En." Lilith responded, turned off the car, stared at the figure at the gate, and said, "Charlie is here!"

"Charlie? That guy...maybe he's quarreling with his old man again!" Rosen laughed, stretched out his hand to push the car door, and walked towards the door with slightly swaying footsteps.

Lilith quickly got out of the car and quickly followed Rosen.

"Hi! Uncle, you are finally back!" Charlie jumped up happily when he saw Rosen, but his eyes were fixed on Lilith who was following behind. He smiled at her courteously and said, "Hi, Lilith, here I come again!"

Lilith frowned indistinctly and said, "Hello, Charlie!"

Rosen put his hand around Charlie's neck, didn't realize that he stopped him from walking towards Lilith, and said drunkenly: "Hey, brat, you didn't go to the nightclub with your cronies today!"

"Uh... Uncle, you strangled me!" Charlie grabbed Rosen's arm, coughed a few times, and was dragged back by Rosen a few steps, "I, I'm not going anywhere from today !"

"Oh." Rosen nodded, continued to hook him into the villa with his arms, and said in agreement: "That's good, your father will be very relieved to see that you have finally restrained your thoughts about having fun."

"Maybe!" Charlie broke free from Rosen and touched his neck, "Uh... I plan to live with you, uncle."

"Huh?" Rosen stopped suddenly, squinted at him, looked him up and down, and laughed: "Hey, boy, tell the truth! What... have you done?"

"I didn't do anything bad!" Charlie looked at Rosen aggrievedly, "Do I live with you only if I have done something bad?"

Rosen raised his eyebrows and said nothing, his eyes were full of affirmation.

Charlie said in frustration and indignation: "I didn't do anything bad! I came to live with you because..." He looked at Lilith who had been watching them quietly, "I want to be a handsome man like Lilith. "

When Lilith heard this, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"If I remember correctly, Lilith has rejected you many times!" Rosen glanced at Charlie with a disapproving expression on his face, "Of course, if you want to live with me, you are welcome at any time, provided that, It's not because you did something bad, to escape your father's punishment."

"I said, I didn't do anything bad! I just want to learn Lilith's fighting skills!" Charlie almost shouted, "Uncle!"

"Okay, I heard it, that's it!" Rosen said, shrugged, and walked slowly into the villa.

Charlie looked expectantly at Lilith who did not comment.

Lilith looked at him blankly, turned and walked towards the car, and then, under Charlie's gaze, parked the car in the garage.

After watching Lilith drive the car into the garage, Charlie clenched his fists and said in a low voice, "Okay, it's okay, Charlie, as long as you are sincere, she will definitely teach you!"

Late at night, Manor Nemo.

After taking a shower, Lilith put on her pajamas and came out of the bathroom. While wiping her hair, she pushed open the door from the room to the balcony, and walked to the balcony.The night wind blew, and the cool wind collided with the water vapor on her body, making her skin involuntarily covered with goosebumps, and it also woke up her sleepy head.

Nemo Manor is located on the outskirts of New York. There is a large lake next to the villa. According to Rosen, this is a lakeside manor project developed by a real estate company affiliated to Nemo Group. About five villas were specially built in the area near the lake. The distribution and area of ​​the five villas are different. Among them, Nemo Manor and another villa located on the other side of the lake have the largest area. During the day, Lilith did notice that there are houses in the woods about one kilometer from the other side of the lake. In the shade, if you look at it at night, you can only see a few bright lights, like a star falling into the woods.

Lilith leaned against the balcony railing, staring at the lights in the distance. Some old memories flashed through her mind like that light in such a quiet night, even though she didn't take the initiative to think about it.

"Damn it, I'm shot/shot!"

"... Whoever is closest to him, go and help him!"

"...Report, we arrived, no rescue target found! Repeat, no rescue target!"

"Damn it, it's a trap!"

"Retreat! All retreat!" A voice roared through the unclear intercom.

"We're coming out!"

Lilith leaned against the broken wall and tried her best to control her breathing. Except for the fierce firepower of the opponent, there was only the constant wailing and shouting of her comrades in her ears. She stood up and aimed the heavy fire/grenade/bomb at a building. A sniper/shooter on the second floor of a residential building.

The other party saw her and fired the bullet without hesitation.

Lilith also fired shells.

Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering loud noise, and the ground shook...

Lilith frowned slightly, and slowly tightened her hand resting on the railing. A blue vein protruded from the back of her slender hand, throbbing slightly, and murmured: "Why can't I remember it all the time? What happened later...?"

No one could answer her, and she couldn't find an answer to this question.

Lilith raised her eyes, staring at the dark lake.

When Lilith was deep in thought, outside the lakeside villa on the other side of the lake, the autumn evening wind was blowing through the woods, and the leaves made whirling sounds like waves, and occasionally unknown night birds flew by and fell into the forest .

A dark figure pierced through the woods like a ghost, bypassed the well-kept and exquisite garden, dodged the security guards who were watching the night, and hid in the dark of the villa.When a security guard shook a bright flashlight and slowly walked over from a short distance, he looked up at the villa.

This is a rather English-style villa. At this time, only one room on the south side is lit, and a man is vaguely seen walking back and forth in the window, talking on the phone with a mobile phone in his hand. The man stops from time to time, as if He was listening to the other party, and then walked a few steps, occasionally standing in front of the window, gazing at the night while talking on the phone.

The black shadow didn't stay here, he bent down and moved quickly to the other side of the villa, leaning against the base of the wall, reached out and groped in the corner for a while, and after touching the cold metal cover in the grass, he pulled it hard without hesitation, With a slight click sound, a black round hole with a diameter of about [-] to [-] inches inside was exposed. He turned his head and glanced around, leaned over and drilled into the black round hole with great difficulty.

The author has something to say: Well, maybe one more chapter!
