The Third Winter Soldier

"You know him?" Rosen's voice came from behind.

Lilith turned around and saw Rosen slowly turning out from behind a gray container, looking at herself with a dark face, and said, "Did you hear everything?"

Rosen stared at Lilith, and walked towards her step by step, until he stood still in front of her, he said, "From the part where you are not my girlfriend, but the bodyguard..."

Lilith looked back at him, saw the dissatisfaction in his eyes, and said lightly: "Did I say something wrong?"

Rosen snorted and said mockingly, "No, you didn't."

Lilith raised her eyebrows slightly, waiting for his next words.

Rosen looked in the direction where Carl left, and said for a long time, "Are you curious what mission I released?"

Lilith glanced at him.

"If you want to know, you can ask me directly, and there is no need to ask a bounty hunter." Rosen said disdainfully, "Also, you'd better avoid such people!"

Lilith turned her eyes suddenly, looked straight at Rosen, and said in a cold tone: "Such a person? What are you referring to? Bounty hunter? Or Carl?"

"Is there any difference between the two? Both are ghosts living in the gutter." Rosen's tone became more and more contemptuous, "It's for your own good that I suggest you keep less contact! Lilith."

When Lilith heard this, she couldn't help sneering, and the sternness that Rosen hadn't seen for a long time gradually appeared in her eyes. She said slowly, "Mei? You think you are very noble, right?"

Rosen looked up at her and was startled by her eyes. However, he did not put away his contempt for bounty hunters. "Of course, compared to these people who live in the gutter, am I not noble?"

Lilith smiled inexplicably, and said, "It's a pity, I'm the one you said was living in the gutter."

"You are not now, at least, if you follow me, you will never have to live such a life!" Rosen said proudly.

Lilith's smile deepened, "So, you mean... I should thank you, thank you for letting me not live in the 'gutter', right?"

Just as Rosen was about to answer, he suddenly saw Lilith's disappearing smile and the haze in her eyes. He hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, as long as you don't leave me, you don't need to do those dirty things." As long as you stay with me, I can give you whatever you want! I promise!"

Lilith looked at him coldly and said, "You should be glad that you are still my employer, Mr. Nemo."

Hearing this, Rosen couldn't help feeling chills down his back. He swallowed, lifted his chin slightly, and said, "If not, what are you going to do?"

"If you haven't forgotten, the first time we met..." Lilith didn't answer directly, but approached him, "I hope you still remember."

"What do you want to do?" Rosen slowly stepped back as she approached. However, Lilith stared at him without saying a word, and walked slowly towards him. Walking to the end of the container alley, Rosen's back slammed against the container at the end. His lips trembled slightly. Looking at Lilith who came up, he no longer had the previous arrogance and toughness, and said loudly: " You just said that I am your employer!"

Lily stared at him expressionlessly, and suddenly, she stretched out her hands and pressed the containers on both sides of his head, leaned in front of his face, looked at him carefully, evoked a faint smile, and gently Said: "It's nice to have money, right? If you have money, you can look down on everyone who is not as good as you. If you have money, you can do whatever you want. If you have money, you can make the 'ghost' in the gutter do anything for you, right...  ..."

Rosen's back was pressed against the cold container, and the chill slowly spread from his back to his whole body. He looked back at Lilith, and the coercion radiating from her was familiar yet unfamiliar, just like the time he saw Lilith at the Caesar Hotel, he I was so shocked that I couldn't even say a word.

Lilith had an evil smile on her face. She admired Rosen's pale face at close range, and asked softly, "Why don't you answer? Mr. Nemo, is my question difficult to answer?"

Rosen swallowed hard, begging for mercy, and looked at Lilith silently.

"It seems that these questions are too difficult for you!" Lilith said coldly, "Then let me change the question, do you like me? Rosennemo!"

Rosen raised his eyes slightly, looked at Lilith, hesitated to speak.

"Or let me ask more specifically, do you like me like this now?" Lilith curled her lips, waiting for his answer.

"I..." Rosen looked at Lilith in front of him, tried his best to suppress his fear and wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth in vain, but in the end he still didn't say anything, and he lowered his head in frustration.

Lilith put her head close to his ear, and said softly: "Although I think the liking you said is just a kind of possessive desire, but now I can give you a chance to prove that your so-called liking is not Not possessive, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Rosen slowly raised his head, and looked at Lilith who was looking at him with a smile for a few seconds, he smiled bitterly, and said in a low voice: "No, no need, I think, I don't need such Here's the chance."

Lilith didn't let him go because of his answer. She looked straight at Rosen, not letting go of any slight change of expression on his face, "The opportunity is fleeting, and you may regret not proving yourself now."

Rosen took a few deep breaths before mustering up the courage to face Lilith. He looked at Lilith at this moment, which was completely different from when she was his bodyguard, let alone Lilith who was under his coercion to make a promise. , it was like two people, at this moment she forced herself to remember the fear of facing her at the beginning, and even remembered the pain when she was beaten at that time, he clearly realized that she was right, he was not as good as a man to her The feelings of a woman, what he longs for, is the power she possesses, he is attracted by the strong aura emanating from her, even though he is trembling from the oppression of this power, he has to admit that these are what he lacks Yes, even if he buys all his property, it cannot be exchanged, so in the end what he wants to possess is not Lilith herself.

Lilith quietly watched Rosen whose expression was constantly changing. Finally, she saw the firm emotion in his eyes, and she couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, waiting.

Rosen's eyes flicked back and forth on Lilith's face, and finally fixed on her eyes, he looked at her, tried his best to control the instinctive fear in his body, sighed, and said in a low voice: "You are right! "

Lilith stared at him without saying a word.

Rosen showed an extremely bitter and self-deprecating smile, and muttered: "You are right, I don't... like you!"

Lilith nodded, withdrew her hands and took a step back, distanced herself from him, looked at him with her hands behind her back, and said, "I'm glad you can think so clearly, lest I waste my energy trying to figure it out. It's a good thing for you and me."

Rosen pressed against the container tightly. Perhaps because the distance between the two of them widened, Lilith's coercion that belonged to the strong weakened a little, and he felt much better. At least his body did not tremble as strongly as before. He lightly Ask softly: "If I didn't think clearly, how would you... how to solve... me?"

Lilith looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you to cause trouble for myself!"

Rosen didn't feel any better because of her words. On the contrary, he just felt the chill on his back start again, "You..." Do you need to ask anything else?Ask Lilith what method to use?No, there is no need to ask, he believes that she will have thousands of ways to keep him alive, but in pain, so that he can think clearly about his feelings for her!

For a moment, Rosen was immersed in his own depressed mood, unable to speak.

Lilith did not prevent him from sorting out his emotions, but just stood there silently, looked at him for a long time, and suddenly said: "You were born in a good and wealthy family, your parents gave you an elite education, allowing you to have the skills that no one else can. and wealth enough to make you think you are superior. Of course, how you view people who are different from you is your business, but" she paused, "I will not tolerate your contempt for my partner, because you have no I don’t know what the evil spirit in your mouth has done for this country!”

Rosen was taken aback, for the country?He looked at Lilith suspiciously.

Lilith didn't explain anything, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked, "The person you dated has already left, can you leave here now?"

Rosen nodded and said with embarrassment, "Let's go, let's go!"

Lilith watched him walk out, followed him slowly, and the two left the container pile one after the other.

When they left, a figure fell from above where they were just now. This person was Karl Barton. He stared at the direction Lilith left, with suspicious eyes in his eyes, and said to himself: "Who are you? ?”
