episode24

Three cool sports cars parked in front of a hospital in downtown Manhattan.

In addition to normally receiving intractable diseases from ordinary people, this hospital also maintains cooperation with S.H.I.E.L.D. in private, and has medical experts called night shift doctors and nurses to diagnose and treat these special groups of people.It was here that the Avengers sent several other members of Columbia's Physical Science Society for treatment.

In the intensive care unit, the quiet environment makes one unbearably disturbed.A thin girl with black hair and yellow skin was leaning halfway on the hospital bed, quietly reading the heavy brick book in her hand, the gold letters on the title page of the fuchsia old hard cardboard were shimmering:

"fualofalchemy"

Tong En poked her head out at the door and called her name softly. She followed the sound, her obsidian eyes suddenly brightened, she smiled and told her to come in quickly, her eyes drifted away to the people behind her, and she nodded: "Everyone stop standing outside, come in and sit down."

The four injured students were arranged to take good care of each other in a single ward so that they could rest better. However, Tong En was most worried about her roommate Lila, a Chinese girl who left her hometown to study in this strange place. She has no relatives in the city, and after getting along with her in the past few years, she has already regarded him as her family.

The girl's complexion has improved a lot, but her lips are still a little pale. Tong En helped her to sit up a little bit. Facing the sudden crowd of people, she smiled shyly: "Specific matters I have heard what Wanda and the night shift nurse said, thank you for saving me and my classmates."

"It doesn't matter, this is what we should do. You are really brave to protect the prototype chip from being robbed. If it weren't for the delay, I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to see the leader." Friendly Steve Said with a smile.

A surprised expression flashed across Lila's face, and she looked up at Tong En who was beside her, who nodded at her.

"It turns out that you all already know it... Now that it has been taken away by bad guys, there is no need for us to hide it."

She explained the reason of the whole matter, which was basically the same as what Tong En said before. Before leaving, Harrison Wells handed over the weird little ball to them for safekeeping, and encouraged them to do it on their own if they had the strength to spare. Research.

A group of students were afraid that they would be confiscated as public property if other people in the school found out, and sent other professors to keep their research, so they kept it secret and quietly put it in the warehouse of the club.

"At the time of the incident, we were doing experiments for our summer internship and research assignments. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen," she recalled the situation at the time, her brows furrowed tightly. "We swore to keep it a secret until one day Ability, you can use your own strength to study it, and no one will leak the news at all, but how did that green big-headed monster know?"

Tong En replied: "This is also where we feel strange. In addition, the name of the freak is the leader."

"About the power shaft chip, do you have any other clues to tell us, any details are fine?" Tony was a little unwilling to reconciled with the current stagnant progress, and asked.

The girl thought for a moment: "Others... probably nothing else. I just remember that when I was knocked down by the head's radio wave interference to my brain, I faintly heard him say something like 'shuttle'."

"The ends of the earth, the end of the universe, the long river of time, can go anywhere, do you understand what I mean?"any. 』

Recalling Harrison's words, Tong En immediately turned pale.

Natasha glanced at her: "It seems that we are not the only ones who know how to use this thing."

She frowned: "But Reverse Lightning is dead."

"Maybe he told someone before he died," Steve thought for a moment, then added, "or maybe he traveled through another timeline and came back."

Before he finished speaking, he noticed that everyone's eyes were focused on him, the strange eyes seemed to be looking at a... yes, old antique.

He was both angry and funny: "You don't need to be so surprised, I understand what Barry said."

"What a good student," Tong En said without denying it, "I feel very proud to be your instructor."

Lila stared at them blankly. It seemed that just after she had finished speaking, their expressions became strange. She was a little confused, so she asked, "What... are you talking about? Is there something wrong?"

The Avengers looked at each other with embarrassed expressions.

It seems that this thread also ends here.I thought I could get more news from the person involved, but in the end, I still stood still.

"It's nothing. The doctor said you need to rest. I think we should go too, or he will throw us all out." Tony stood up first, and the others followed slowly to the door.

Steve pointed to the book in Lila's hand, and kindly suggested: "Young man, it's better not to read books if you have a brain injury, and look at the scenery. It would be better to rest more."

"Thank you, Captain."

He looked at Tong En who was still holding Lila's hand reluctantly: "Do I need to give you some time to talk alone?"

She froze for a moment, then nodded, showing a grateful smile.

"Okay, we'll wait for you in the waiting room."

She watched Steve and the others leave, the door was gently closed, and there were only two girls left in the lively ward for a while.It suddenly occurred to her that when they were in school, the two of them were also nestled in the dormitory, reading and studying, gossiping and chatting. At that time, there was another girl who always liked to run down from upstairs to visit. She never thought that the summer vacation was not over yet, everything was different. up.

"What are you thinking about?"

"When the head interferes with your brainwaves and memory, can you sense what memory he stole? Is it just the power axis chip, or does it include other things?"

"You mean, my ability?" Lila looked at her fixedly, with a haughty look in her eyes, and chuckled, "It's a kind of magic, even if he saw it, he might not know how to use it, I Don't worry at all... How could you ask such a stupid question, logically speaking, you should know best."

She was at a loss for words for a while, her eyes were sad: "No, I don't understand."

"It's okay, as long as Luna and I understand each other, she is half my teacher. Let her teach you more next time. You two grew up together, so it won't be a problem..."

Seeing her friend pursing her lips tightly, Lila's complexion became even worse, and she felt even worse. "You have something to hide from me, right?"

"Luna..." She closed her eyes in pain and squeezed out a few words, "I have been missing for thirteen days."

"What happened to her, didn't she go to the news with her tutor? Why did she disappear!"

Tong En shook his head, expressing that he couldn't say anything.

Lila understands that this attitude means that she has exhausted all conceivable methods but is still at a loss. The words "find the Avengers" and "find the police" that were already on her lips are stuck in her throat and she can't say anything.

Her current mood was no better than when Tong En was told about it on the aircraft carrier. After the violent mood swings, it was accompanied by severe head pain.Tong En quickly helped her to change her position, but it didn't work out, so she had to comfort her and try to calm her down. Lila's voice could only be heard in the room because of the pain, and it took a while for her to ease up a lot.

Speechless for a while.

"Then have you notified her family? They must be very worried now," Lila said in a tired voice, still not forgetting to care about Luna's affairs. The Avengers didn't make much progress either, which shows that it's not easy, "With their abilities, it should be easy to help."

"But then I'd have to tell my parents, and then things would get very, very, big."

"Even if you don't say that things are out of control now, do you think there is any other way?"

That's true, Tong En nodded silently, still struggling.

"Maybe you can ask Aiden to help," Lila suggested.

"... Then I'll tell my parents."

"don't besilly! you're supposed to do that, honey. he's your brother, he loves you!"

Lila's already pale and sick face was full of anxiety, and she spit out a series of words like a cannonball, and even raised the volume, completely without the consciousness of being a patient.

She firmly grasped Tong En's hand and shook it.

Tong En raised her eyes and looked straight at her for a long time, then shook her head and said softly, "no, he's not."

The Avengers sitting in the waiting room waited a long time for Tong En. Compared with the well-known high-profile hero team, the young girl with low hair texting and suspender dress was perfectly hidden in the background, so that standing When they were in front of him, Tony was still a little unresponsive.

"What did you say, it took so long."

"Girls' talk." She moved her thumbs vigorously, and only raised her head when the screen displayed the message "Send successfully." She smiled apologetically at them, "It's been a long wait, let's go."

Since Tong En was still deeply afraid of the rumors about the ghost car, the others discussed it and decided to ask her to hand over to Tony for inspection and repair on the grounds that the part of the fog light control was broken, so that they would not intentionally bring up the rumors to further aggravate her. fear, and can be justifiably investigated, killing two birds with one stone.

Tong En thought of the fog lamps that were more dazzling than incandescent lamps, so he agreed without even thinking about it. By the way, he complained in his heart how arrogant the person who designed this car is, even the fog lamps should not be so dazzling Is it good to be eye-catching, for fear that others will not see it.

Tony swapped seats with her and took charge of the driving book, but he was much calmer and more reliable than the female driver, and his speed was only slightly faster than normal.

From the hospital to the Avengers Building, I happened to be able to take her home on the way. She looked thoughtful all the way, and it was rare that she didn't speak. Steve was always quiet and no one answered. Tony felt bored, so he had to concentrate drive.

The car stopped in front of a single-family three-story villa. Tong En got out of the car, said goodbye to the others, and watched the three cars go away before turning around and walking to the front of the house.

She stared at the dark ocher-colored door, hesitated for a long time, and finally made up her mind, pressed the code and opened the door.

As expected, Sefus Spano was already sitting on his exclusive single sofa waiting for her, with no newspapers or files in his hand, like an old monk who had settled down, staring straight at the home that had accumulated some money. In the dusty fireplace, when he heard the sound of closing the door, his cold dark blue eyes turned slightly, and turned his scrutinizing gaze to Tong En.

"You came back later than I expected. Sit down, my child." His posture didn't change, but he motioned her to sit beside him with his eyes. "It seems that the Avengers are not as reliable as imagined." , More than ten days later, I still haven’t been able to find anyone.”

Seves picked up the coffee on the coffee table and took a sip, then said unhurriedly, "Have you thought about your next speech?"
