The Witch's Bodyguard [Comprehensive Anglo-American]

Steve's expression was a little complicated, more of a loss, but he didn't completely release this emotion, but hid him in a serious face.Steve probably wouldn't have guessed that a world so real would only be a dream when he woke up, his dance with Peggy, that dress he wore in Brooklyn, and all, and he'd never Regrets that cannot be recovered in reality will be completely forgotten.

Ma Linglong handed him the coffee cup, and when Steve thought the girl wanted to return the cup and planned to take it back, Ma Linglong said, "One more cup."

"What about you, you will forget too?" Steve said, he filled another cup of coffee for Ma Linglong, and then put in three sugar candies

"I won't forget, but after waking up from the dream, you and I are strangers, and I won't show even the slightest sign of knowing you." Ma Linglong said, still with a calm expression.

Ma Linglong never has feelings for her customers or orders, whether it is friendship or love or other friendships, once the transaction is over, Ghost will not remember her, and customers do not want to think of her.

Except for Stark, and only Stark.

"Sounds very heartless." Steve said, of course he didn't have any affection for Ma Linglong, but he was Steve Rogers, he never gave cold eyes to those who tried to help him, "You must have a way to make me Remember, I guess?".

The indifference shown by Ma Linglong has always made many people think that she has no feelings. In fact, she has feelings and is very rich, but she doesn't think it is necessary to expose all her emotions: "Of course." She honestly said, "If you can afford it, I can do it."

"But it's impossible." Steve continued Ma Linglong's words, "I've already forgotten what I wanted to remember, and you won't remind me for free."

Ma Linglong likes to deal with smart people, she smiled slightly, that kind of smile has nothing to do with temptation and seduction, she lowered her voice very low: "You are not the first person to trap yourself in consciousness, at least You are strong-willed, not obsessed, and willing to communicate. The world of consciousness is beautiful, think about it, everything that happens here is what you want to see, you don't even have to think about the future, it can last forever Stay where you want to see it."

Steve said: "You shouldn't have told me this. If I were a stubborn person, I might not choose to wake up."

"I never hide all possible situations from my order, they have the right to make a choice." But Ma Linglong was determined to win Steve, "If you really don't want to wake up, I won't let you do so. "

Steve could tell which ones were threats and which ones were statements. Obviously, the girl opposite belonged to the latter. Although her tone was indifferent, this was Steve's world, and he could clearly feel the emotions of outsiders: "You You can call me Steve." He was friendly, "Or is it your professional habit that you can only call me an order?"

"Since we are already familiar with each other, let's make it quick, Steve." Ma Linglong said, "I still have a date tonight."

"Is it true that Peggy is alive?" Steve asked one last question. "I thought she was dead."

"If I were to lie to you, I would say that she is not only alive but also misses you very much. You should wake up immediately." Ma Linglong said, "Actually, I don't know her, I just read your profile, Peggy's content is also in it, and I guess your relationship is not subordinate to superior."

"I didn't have that relationship with Peggy yet," Steve said, "at least not before."

"Someone knows the relationship between you." Ma Linglong got everything in the files about Captain America, and they fully demonstrated the love and hatred of a legendary World War II hero. "Don't ask me why someone knows, that person Who or what. I don't care about your Muggle disputes, I'm only responsible to you, and, if you want to find out, please ask yourself."

"Muggle?"

"Put away your curiosity, I have no threat to you at all, don't worry, I'm not interested in your private affairs." Ma Linglong stood up, "Let's go, I don't want to miss tonight's date, since I My boyfriend is very clingy, and I don't want to see him disappointed."

"I won't let you miss the date." Ma Linglong didn't notice the melancholy in Steve's eyes, and his tone didn't reveal much emotion, "Have you ever climbed a snow mountain?" He asked.

"Snow mountain?"

Ice and snow peaks stand taller and steeper in the snow-capped cold wind. Ma Linglong followed Steve along the ropes and raised cliffs and climbed to the highest point with difficulty. She knew how to climb mountains and also climbed snow-capped mountains. After all, she is from the top of the Kunlun Mountains, but if Ma Linglong does not rely on magic at all, this sport becomes very difficult for her, especially in the harsh weather and environment.

As Steve's heart changed, the entire conscious world began to become out of his control, the wind became stronger and the snow became more and more urgent.Although Ma Linglong reminded the man to try to maintain a calm mind many times, Steve couldn't control the fluctuations in his subconscious thoughts.

He almost couldn't even think of the safety rope.

"I'm sorry." Steve's tone was a little heavy, "You can wait for me at the foot of the mountain, if you can't continue."

Ma Linglong didn't know what Steve was going to do on the top of the mountain, and his answer was also unclear. This may be because Steve wasn't sure that this mountain was the same one back then.The moment his consciousness faltered, the surrounding scenes also changed drastically, and he made a choice entirely on instinct.

"I don't believe you." Ma Linglong said, "If you linger after seeing Bucky, it will be difficult for me to find you."

"Okay." He said, in fact, this is very possible, Steve has a lot of things to say to Bucky, the meeting should not be over so soon, if, they can really meet, "you be careful , I guess you don’t exercise much in your line of work, do you?”

Ma Linglong snorted coldly, but did not respond.

Steve didn't mean to offend, he just wanted to find a topic to keep the atmosphere between them from being too formal. After all, he could welcome someone who could really help him during the long alone time, regardless of the other party's reasons For whatever purpose, Steve is grateful.But now, he seems to have made the already uncomfortable atmosphere even more rigid.

Peggy said something, he never understood women.

Ma Linglong's movements became more and more sluggish. Although Steve was very urgent, he stopped and waited patiently, neither urging nor blaming: "I'll carry you." He suggested, "Your situation looks like very bad."

Ma Linglong consumes a lot of physical energy, not to mention compared with Captain America, she is not even a professional mountaineer.In fact, if it weren't for the fact that this was in someone else's conscious world, she would never have been so miserable. There are many ways for her to reach the top quickly and easily, instead of relying on her hands and feet like she is now.

"No need." Ma Linglong took a deep breath, the body's reaction outside of consciousness would be even greater, and the light of the ring must have dimmed.It's not just because of the loss of physical strength caused by climbing, every second that Ma Linglong is here consumes spiritual energy, "Go on."

Steve nodded, slowed down, and continued to go up. He kept observing Ma Linglong's situation and was ready to help at any time.

The girl staggered suddenly, just as Steve expected, he grabbed her arm almost at the same time as Ma Linglong stepped into the air: "I'll carry you, so fast, you don't want to miss the date, don't you?" .”

Ma Linglong looked down at Steve's strong and powerful palm. In fact, she only needed to hold his arm backwards to lead Steve out of the illusion.She doesn't have to follow the young man up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire to do things that she would not be involved in on a daily basis. Ma Linglong has already planned to do this, because Steve is defenseless at this time, and she will not have any harm to Captain America. Any debt, and men will never know the truth.

Obviously Steve has noticed that this is his world, he can easily detect the change of Ma Linglong's mentality, his hands are clenched tightly, and he doesn't intend to let go.He knew that as long as he let go, or pushed the opponent back off the cliff, he could get rid of the threat.

Ma Linglong looked at him, the young man's eyes were determined and resolute, and his blue pupils were as bright as jewels.

"Okay." In the end, Ma Linglong gave up.

Steve was visibly relieved, he put the girl on his back and quickened his pace.

"Why didn't you let go just now." Ma Linglong said, "I won't die if I fall."

"Why don't you continue, I know you are going to take me away." Steve asked without answering.

"It's not in line with my professional principles." Ma Linglong replied flatly.

"Me too."

I don't know how long it has passed, and the time in the conscious world is completely forbidden. When you think you have used it for a long time, it may only be a few minutes or even a few seconds in reality.The two finally reached the top of the mountain, perhaps because Steve's mood improved, the long-lost sun appeared in the sky, and the snow-capped ice peaks were very dazzling in the sun.

"This is it." Steve said, pointing to a railway track at the foot of the mountain, which was covered with snow and looked jagged. "There will be a train to Germany coming in soon."

"What's the point?" Ma Linglong asked.

"Bucky fell off the cliff on that train," Steve said. "I figured if we could get on that train, I'd know where to find him."

"How to do it?" Ma Linglong looked in the direction of Steve's finger, which was hundreds of feet away from their current position.

"We used a rope to row across." As soon as the words fell, Steve heard the sound of the train whistle. He took out his binoculars and looked into the distance for a while, "No, it's not the time yet, there is no rope." He said The mood dropped again, heavy snow fell from the sky, and the biting cold wind blew into Ma Linglong's throat, making her cough uncontrollably.

"Think about it." Ma Linglong said, "This is your world, quickly recall the scene and equipment at that time, you can do whatever you want!"

Steve can concentrate in a short period of time, this is his ability, it has nothing to do with the serum, although he was small and short and malnourished since childhood, Steve is a natural military strategist, he has a military strategist determination and determination.However, he credits the ultimate achievement to his teammates for making Captain America famous rather than Steve alone.

"Thank you." So he didn't stick to saying thanks at all, especially when he completely restored the chute and ropes to the layout at that time. Steve remembered that at that time, the technical members of the Howling Commando It took a lot of painstaking effort to make this simple ropeway that can directly reach the roof of the train, but now, he only needs to think about it and easily do it, "I really don't believe I can do it." [The story of US team 1]

Ma Linglong was about to roll her eyes to the back of her head. She looked at the swaying rope in the wind, took a deep breath, and said, "Didn't you have any protective measures, back then?"

"It's safe," he said, before adding, "The old way, I'll carry you, and I'll get you to your destination safely."

"Now?"

"Yes, be ready at any time, get off when the car comes, so come on my back first."

Steve stood on the edge of the cliff, he was familiar with this scene, as if he experienced the exact same thing yesterday.He looked around, and the only difference was that Steve was alone now, and he remembered that Bucky was standing on his left, and they were teasing each other, like they were chatting in a bar instead of about to perform a tricky task.

Maybe it's possible to imagine all the members of the Howling Commandos (except Bucky), but that is obviously pointless, and in the end, Steve will also slide down the cliff to say goodbye to them forever.

"Why don't you jump out of the fighter jet?" Ma Linglong asked suddenly.

"You mean the one in 1945?" Steve said. "The propellers are broken, I have to manually operate, and if I leave, the plane will fall directly to the ground and explode."

"Can't think of any other way?"

"I guess you've never been in a war," Steve said.

"Beat it." Ma Linglong said.

"Really." He replied, somewhat in disbelief, "Then you should know that many situations on the battlefield are difficult to control." Steve paused, "I don't think I went out from the cabin at the last moment. What's the use of jumping, maybe I'll be torn to pieces by the spiral under the wing."

Captain America did not commit suicide. This answer made Ma Linglong feel a little funny. Experts analyzed his sacrifice behavior at that time so thoroughly, and determined that he must have chosen to sacrifice for the death of his comrades: "Your relationship with Howard Stark How is it?" she asked again.

"We have a good relationship."

"Just good?"

"It's very good, he gave me this shield." Steve added, "At least after Bucky's death, I regard him as a rare friend, what do you want to tell me, tell me to wake up Remember to pay homage, I will definitely."

"His son is called Anthony Howard Stark (Anthony.Edward.Stark), remember this name, and please treat him kindly." Ma Linglong said, "You can call him Tony, he likes others to call him that Him.” (Steve didn’t call him Tony for a long time after that, but he kept trying to be kind to Tony, and he didn’t even understand why)【Note】

"Really?" Steve's tone was tinged with joy, "I'm so happy for him, Howard will have a child, I thought he would never choose to get married in his life."

"Don't you want to know about my relationship with Tony?"

"You are a couple?"

"How did you think of it?"

"I feel your love for him, and you told me to remember him and treat him well." The space of consciousness distorted again, which indicated that Steve had gradually lost his nostalgia for this place, "No, Linglong, At least let me make sure he's there, I can't wake up now." Steve found that Ma Linglong was trying to shake his thoughts, but he was not unhappy, "I have an idea, I mean, If I can pinpoint where Bucky fell off here, can I find the real place in the real world?"

"It is theoretically possible." Ma Linglong said, "But you will..."

"I'll forget everything, yes, I know." Steve said quickly, "I should have money in my account." He said unsurely, "What's your fee?"

"I don't make deals with troublemakers." Ma Linglong said, and she didn't think a World War II veteran who had been asleep for 70 years could have much savings, "You can't accept me as quickly as you wake up, with your personality and backward knowledge structure, and you must be very stubborn."

"Hold on to me." The reason why Steve didn't continue this topic was that the train could already see the white smoke coming out of his head. He fixed the pulley on the rope and held both ends tightly with both hands, "Maybe I'm stubborn , and I don’t have advanced knowledge.” He said, “But I’m definitely not a troublemaker.”

Ma Linglong wasn't sure if Steve had intentionally retaliated against her for being mean just now, she thought it probably wasn't, after all, Captain America was not a despicable villain.

She was almost thrown into the car by Steve, in a rude manner, when she was not on her feet at all.

"Sorry." Steve closed the train's sliding doors, and he smiled apologetically, "I didn't realize you couldn't fight."

Well, she was sure he did it on purpose.

The two entered the car smoothly. Steve was very familiar with the internal structure. He closed the door and said, "How much do you know about my story?"

"As long as you have the information." Ma Linglong leaned aside for a short rest, she was getting more and more tired, "Steve, you'd better hurry up, my body won't last long."

"I don't know what to do next," Steve told him. "What's wrong with you?"

"Do your own thing." Ma Linglong said, "Continue to think about what happened to you and how your friend died. Isn't it very impressive to you?"

Steve nodded, and he led Ma Linglong through the first carriage: "Follow me closely." It was Captain America's voice, walking forward step by step with vigilance and prudence, "I remember This is here, the enemy is attacking us." He pointed to the direction behind Ma Linglong when he came just now, "The enemy's weapon broke the door, and Bucky fell down."

"Why are you so nervous?"

This is Steve's world.There can be no enemies.

"I don't know." Steve said, he didn't look back, his eyes were fixed on the front, "You let me recall the scene at that time, the only way to find Bucky."

"Don't think about the extra stuff." Ma Linglong said, her voice was so calm that no emotion could be heard.

Steve's expression changed suddenly, and his muscles tensed immediately. He subconsciously protected Ma Linglong behind him, using his broad body as a shield, and the sharpness that shot out from his eyes was as cold as the temperature in the car.

A metal device, like a robot, appeared in front of the two of them. The arm of the device suddenly raised horizontally and aimed at them.

Steve remembers that, Dr. Zola's invention, he and the Red Skull made countless powerful weapons with technology far beyond the science of the time.The one in front of him is one of them, and it is the chief culprit who knocked Bucky off the train, but today there is no Bucky, only a psychic needs protection behind him.

"Merlin's beard!" Ma Linglong gasped, "What are you doing, you will kill us, how could you think of these guys!"

"Sorry," Steve said helplessly, "I can't control it."

The author has something to say: [Note]: Tony is the abbreviation of Anthony, which can also be regarded as a nickname. Nini seems to like it very much when people call him that.

The setting of the conscious world is similar to dreaming, so sometimes you are afraid of what will come, or what you think will not come.
