The Two Faces of the Villain[Comprehensive]

The Winter Soldier feels rather...rejected by the biography that Eddie and Captain America have painstakingly written for themselves.

Whether it's a grand funeral, or a solemn eulogy, and now a book autobiography, the Winter Soldier feels unnecessary.If you really want to ask the man what he thinks, the Winter Soldier probably only wants a silent death.

Yes, silence.

Now that you have arranged my death clearly, don't worry about my thoughts anymore.

However, Eddie's expression was too sincere and enthusiastic.

No matter how cold the Winter Soldier's face is, it is still difficult to resist the enthusiasm of such a kind person.

Fortunately, Eddie didn't have any idea of ​​getting gratitude or suggestions from Brooklyn. In fact, he just simply came to see the Winter Soldier and reported to him what he was doing now.After all, these things are indeed closely related to the Winter Soldier, and Eddie thinks it is necessary for the Winter Soldier to know this.

Standing on the sidelines · Winter Soldier: "..." No, I don't need to know, you just think I'm dead.

New book, Eddie still left for Brooklyn.

Although the Winter Soldier didn't want to read his biography, but because the task of protecting Vladimir was taken away by Crossbones, he is really... very idle now, with nothing to do.Moreover, the man looked at the name of the author Steve Rogers on the cover of the book, and still couldn't help but want to read it, Captain America's first book.

The contents of the autobiography, in fact, feel familiar to the Winter Soldier.This is not because he is familiar with his own story, but because the content of his autobiography is similar to the reports published by Eddie in his column.The Winter Soldier has also read a series of reports about him written by Eddie, which are similar to the content in this book, but the part in the book is more detailed.

This is also easy to understand. After all, it is the workload of a book. If it is a new creation, it will be very difficult even for Eddie in such a short period of time.And Eddie regards all the reports he publishes as basic expansion and refinement, so there is indeed a sense of familiarity in the content.

As for the part written by Captain America, in the last part of the book, there are also a lot of pages.

To the surprise of the Winter Soldier, the pages of this section were not electronically drafted, but scanned handwritten manuscripts.

Everything on this page was written by Captain America himself.

The Winter Soldier quietly watched Captain America's handwriting, and a sense of long-standing familiarity emerged spontaneously.

He could even naturally imagine from the handwriting, the scene of the blond man sitting in front of the table with a straight back and a serious face, thinking hard and carefully writing each word on the page.

What is familiar is also the content, because Captain America wrote... like a memoir.

Steve Rogers writes about his own past, how he went from a skinny, often bullied Brooklyn kid to a soldier.And how to become Captain America from a soldier who was looked down upon by everyone.

Everything recalled is about Captain America himself.However, behind everything, there is the shadow of James Buchanan Barnes, as if the existence of this man has penetrated into the life of Captain America.

"Before we became close comrades in arms, Bucky and I were the closest friends."

"Before I became Captain America, I was just a down-and-out, skinny, incompetent, and unknown kid."

"But I have never had nothing, because Bucky is always by my side."

"When I look back on the past, I sometimes ask myself: If it weren't for Bucky's trust, support and encouragement that never stingy and never gave up, would I have always been able to believe in myself, until the day I become Captain America?"

"The question is clearly unsolvable."

"Because Bucky will be my best friend whether I'm Captain America or not."

"Countless battles, countless gatherings and partings."

"There has never been an event that separated us, and there has never been an event that truly separated us."

"Except for—Bucky's death."

"From the day I was a soldier, I knew that sacrifice was inevitable. But after Bucky's death, I still feel uncontrollable grief, as if an important part of my life was cut off."

"Even though I keep telling myself in my heart, although Bucky is dead, his spirit still remains by my side, and he will continue to stand by my side and fight side by side with me as always. However, I can't Lying to myself, I feel that the distance between me and Bucky is so great that even a peace that we are willing to die fighting for will not bring it closer."

"When I faced my own mortality, I was at peace inside."

"That was also the moment I felt the closest I was to Bucky."

"It's as if Bucky is standing beside me, telling me that we will still fight side by side for the last part of the journey."

"Fighting for the country, peace and victory, and dying together in battle, I have no regrets in my heart."

……

In the depths of the Winter Soldier's icy eyes, there were also unsettled waves.

Throughout the story, Captain America wrote "Bucky" many times, but in fact, except for Captain America calling the Winter Soldier a few times on weekdays, Captain America never called this Bucky again. in the name.

Even the Winter Soldier felt the name was unfamiliar.

But until now, the Winter Soldier seems to have finally found the past that he deliberately ignored from the name "Bucky".

Once upon a time, the heroes of the Justice Society told Captain America to stop obsessing over the Winter Soldier's past.Those pasts are already past, and wouldn't it be best for the Winter Soldier to leave those dark times behind and head straight for the bright future?

However, those pasts are also the most inseparable and the best time in Captain America's life.

Perhaps, this is also the message that Captain America wants to pass on to the Winter Soldier——

James Buchanan Barnes, you can not only have a different future, but also your past.

Captain America was very happy when he learned that Eddie had seen the Winter Soldier safe and sound.

Therefore, he also applied to Saitama to see the Winter Soldier, but the application was rejected by the client Brooklyn.

Captain America: "???" Why is that!

Eddie, who was sitting in the boss chair of "Why Newspaper", was not surprised to see Captain America's sad face.

In fact, Eddie's heart is very subtle. After all, no matter how boldly he imagined, he would never have thought that he would become a colleague of the same newspaper as Captain America one day, but it was only temporary.And in a sense, Eddie is still the boss who hired Captain America.Eddie feels like he's been on top ever since he joined the Justice Society.

S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers did not object to Captain America's move to "Why Newspaper".Probably the honest Captain America's acting skills are really amazing. Since the death of his friend Winter Soldier, he has been immersed in deep grief. SHIELD and the Avengers also hope that Captain America can give himself a vacation to relieve his emotions.

Although it is a holiday, Captain America is indeed busy.

Unlike Eddie, who was a natural writer, Steve was perhaps a bit less of a writer.Although the writing is true and emotional, Captain America is still carefully considering every word, which has to cause Captain America to spend many hours every day on the important task of writing a book.And because of the handwritten manuscript, even if the content is finalized, Steve will still carefully revise and transcribe it over and over again during the final proofreading.

Just writing the book and arranging Bucky's funeral is enough to keep Captain America busy on vacation.

"Why doesn't Bucky want to see me?" Steve, who was puzzled, could only ask Eddie.

Eddie: "..." Do you think I know the reason?

Eddie, however, considers himself a good reader, and can see that the Winter Soldier is a bit hesitant about the upcoming funeral.But thinking about it, the living people, witnessing other people's funerals being organized with their own eyes, will certainly feel complicated in their hearts.

However, Captain America is a serious person.

Maybe after Captain America sees the Winter Soldier, he will think that the Winter Soldier should also have a sense of participation in the funeral for the Winter Soldier, and then ask something, are you satisfied with the arrangement and process of this funeral?Are there any new proposals, or where do you want to make changes... and so on.

Eddie suddenly felt that he was the truth. Maybe the Winter Soldier wanted to avoid these questions, so he didn't want to see Captain America.

However, Eddie also knew that Captain America was indeed serious about arranging the funeral arrangements for the Winter Soldier.Therefore, Eddie felt that these words should not be spoken out to discourage the enthusiasm of Captain America.

"Perhaps Bucky is also busy." Eddie said, "You also know that the Justice Society has always stood firmly in the position that it will fully support the reconstruction of Sokovia. Now, although Bucky was rescued, he stayed There is also the possibility of revealing his identity in the United States. I think Saitama may have sent Bucky to Sokovia to perform a new mission."

After listening to Eddie's words, Captain America felt that it made sense.

"So, have you confirmed the funeral location of Lieutenant Barnes?" Eddie asked immediately, changing the subject.

"The members of the United Nations don't want me to set the funeral in New York." Captain America said irrelevantly.

Eddy paused for a moment, and at the same time understood that holding a funeral for Lieutenant Barnes was not only what Captain America and the Justice Society expected, but also the people of the entire United States.Even if the United Nations still believes that the Winter Soldier is guilty of a felony, it cannot prevent this popular funeral from being held.

However, the funeral held in New York, the largest city in the United States, was undoubtedly too grand.After all, the crimes of the Winter Soldier are too complicated, and they are also deeply involved in the darkness of politics. Neither the US government nor the United Nations want the funeral of the Winter Soldier to have too much impact.Moreover, the death of the Winter Soldier was related to the ineffective protection of the United Nations. Holding a funeral in New York that attracted the attention of the whole world was undoubtedly a slap in the face of the United Nations.

"However, I'm already settled in New York." Captain America smiled helplessly, but there was unshakable persistence in his eyes, "But of course, it's not for grand or influential ideas."

So what if the funeral is so grand?

Those who died will never come back.

For some reason, Captain America’s mood became a little heavy. In his life, he has witnessed the death of too many people. They sacrificed their lives not for a funeral, but for something more noble than life. Peace.

"I set Bucky's funeral in Brooklyn." Steve said slowly.

Captain America felt that he and Bucky were so lucky.

No matter what they've been through, in the end...they're still alive.

They can also witness with their own eyes the hard-won peaceful future that was bought with countless heroic sacrifices.

"What about the United Nations?" Eddie asked, knowing that Captain America's insistence would definitely attract the opinions of the congressmen.It may also be regarded as Captain America's deliberate targeting.

"Don't care about them." Captain America said in a deep voice, if it wasn't for the help of the Justice Society, maybe Bucky would really have died.If Bucky really died, he couldn't even get Bucky home at the funeral, so what right did he have to say that he was Bucky's best friend.

"Steve, there is one thing I don't think you know." Eddie also suddenly thought of something.

"What?" Captain America asked.

"Lieutenant Barnes, you have a new name for yourself." Eddie said with the corner of his mouth raised.

Hearing Eddie say this, thinking of Bucky's involuntary mood becoming a bit complicated again when he thought of Captain America who used the name Steve.

Steve: "..." No way, it's Rogers this time, right?

"It's Brooklyn." Eddie said with a smile, "His new name is Brooklyn."

Captain America was stunned, his eyes staring at Eddie blankly.

However, it seemed that in an instant, countless complex emotions were blended in those eyes.

It also seemed to reflect the surging mood in the man's chest.

The name Brooklyn immediately involved countless past memories, and suddenly shone brightly in Captain America's silent memories.

Captain America lowered his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth, his voice seemed to be muttering to himself——

"is it?"

When he raised his eyes again, those blue eyes were filled with warmth as gentle as the light outside the window.

The day before the Winter Soldier's funeral, Thor came back in a hurry, saying that he was going to attend the Winter Soldier's funeral.

Thor couldn't help but be thankful that he brought Doctor Strange with him, otherwise he wouldn't know about the Winter Soldier's funeral.Although the Winter Soldier is still alive, after all, it is such a big event as a funeral, and Thor felt that he had to come back for the Winter Soldier to attend in formal attire.

The Winter Soldier looked at Thor's righteous expression: "..." He just wanted to put Thor on the funeral blacklist.

"Did you get the gem?" Saitama asked, looking at Doctor Strange and Thor.

"No, I can't get that gemstone, forget it." Thor said indifferently.

Saitama: "..." Didn't you just want to collect gems?

"However, there are more important things to tell you." Thor grinned, with a mysterious smile on his face, "For the Justice Society and the Avengers, and even the entire atrium, this is super good news .”

Saitama looked at Thor puzzled.

Could it be that the alien planet supermarket decided to enter the earth market?

"You know the Red Skull?" Thor said.

Saitama instantly felt that the bald head under the wig was a little cold: "..." This is, finally, exposed?

Even the Winter Soldier frowned, suddenly alert.

"Of course, you must know." Thor also thought that he was too mentally retarded for this question, and it was Dr. Strange who told him in detail about the Red Skull.As the leader of Doctor Strange, Saitama must also know about the Red Skull, especially the incident of the Winter Soldier is closely related to the Hydra led by the Red Skull, "You would never think that we are in the universe. Met the Red Skull on the planet where the Soul Stone is hidden."

Meanwhile, Saitama, Genos, and the Winter Soldier are all stunned.

After all, after passing the incident of Iron Man's father, they naturally believed that the Red Skull died during World War II.

It's just that, like Captain America's body, Hydra preserved Red Skull's body very well.

so?Isn't the Red Skull dead?Is his soul actually wandering in the universe?

Since he is alive?Why not come back to inherit his Hydra business?

The Winter Soldier's brows were furrowed tightly, and his eyes were cold.

"We know that he is the deadly enemy of you and Captain America, so Dr. Strange and I seized this opportunity together to eradicate the Red Skull completely." Thor said excitedly and proudly, he is also in the universe. The Justice Society is on a heroic mission.

Even Genos was startled when he heard the news, and couldn't help looking at Doctor Strange inquisitively.

Doctor Strange nodded calmly.

Wearing a red skull shell, Saitama: "..." Huh? ? ?

The Red Skull, whom I have seen for a long time, faces a completely different fate from that of the Winter Soldier.

This is the first time Saitama has heard the exact news of the real Red Skull.

Then--

There is no more then.

Winter Soldier: "..." I don't want the funeral, let's give it to the Red Skull.
