[Team America] Brooklyn Warm Winter

"woke up?"

The Winter Soldier pushed the door open and put the hot breakfast on the bedside table. Out of the corner of his eye, he touched the wriggling figure on the bed.

"Hmm..." Rachel opened her eyes vaguely, and subconsciously blinked her eyes when she saw a strange room. It took a while to realize what happened yesterday, and she replied slowly, "Um..."

The Winter Soldier took out a suit of clothes from the luggage bag and brought them into the bathroom. After a while, there was the sound of water splashing.

Rachel stared blankly at the ceiling for a long time, then raised her voice and asked, "I plan to visit my neighborhood today, how about you? Do you have any plans?"

"Accompany you." The Winter Soldier replied without hesitation, his voice was not loud, but clear enough.

Rachel's heart beat a beat slower, and she slapped her forehead with one hand, feeling like she was being picked up, what's going on? ? ?

She sat up and got out of bed and walked barefoot to the sofa, took out the mobile phone from the luggage bag, and without any caller ID, she stuffed it back boringly.

The Winter Soldier came out of the bathroom, his body was still steaming. At this time, he had changed into a black hoodie and a pair of loose sweatpants. His whole body was casual and handsome. Short hair too.

Most girls say that after a breakup, they change their hairstyles and start a new life, so he should also change his hairstyle to celebrate his new life.

Rachel stared at his hair for a while, then said, "Bucky, why don't we go to the barber first?"

When the two came out of the barber shop, Rachel regretted it.

Bucky, with short hair and a beard, looks calm and handsome, especially in their small city where there are usually few foreigners who come to travel. The two of them have attracted most restrained and curious eyes on the street almost as soon as they came out. .Rachel had to put on his hood, and then went to the cheap jewelry store next door to buy him ugly and cute eyes, which barely suppressed the effect.

Being handsome is troublesome.Rachel couldn't help sighing.

Bucky let Rachel be at his mercy and put on those ugly glasses, and he told her when he saw that she stopped messing around.

"I went to your house last night."

Rachel was stunned, and realized that some of her memories were exposed and how to get to her house, so she ignored the question and looked at him anxiously.

"It... no, my parents, are they there?"

"No, someone else bought that house. He found me last night and asked me to take you to him."

When Rachel heard this, she immediately grabbed Bucky's hand and was about to leave: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go while it's still early."

But Bucky stood firmly in place, took Rachel's hand and held her.

"I doubt his purpose. He found me and knew of your existence, and asked me to take you to him." Bucky expressed his doubts calmly.

"..." Rachel stopped walking approvingly, frowning and looking dull on her face, "Maybe he has some special ability? Just like Saul or Dr. Banner, you should know those high-profile guys, they all have special power."

Bucky looked straight at Rachel with glazed eyes: "I hope that all your actions are well thought out."

"Yes," Rachel nodded firmly, "I don't want to miss any way to get home."

Bucky stopped obstructing, and held Rachel's hand in his pocket with a wide palm, "Pretend to be a couple, don't attract attention, you know."

Rachel's heartbeat quickened again, she turned her head in embarrassment and stopped looking at Bucky.

The two arrived at their destination in a taxi. The driver seemed to be a diplomatic person. Even though there may be language differences between the two parties, it did not prevent him from contributing to the relationship between the two countries. Rachel was embarrassed to communicate with them in broken English. I was almost speechless, and I didn't tell him until I got out of the car... Both of them can speak Chinese.

Now the driver brother looked more embarrassed than them.

Rachel's home is in a villa complex, and she bought a self-built house back when housing prices hadn't risen. Back then, the housing prices in the neighborhood next door were not very good, but now they are even higher than theirs, becoming a veritable Rich neighborhood.

Rachel looked at the houses that hadn't changed at all, and she couldn't help crying. If it wasn't for Bucky beside her, she would have thought those few months were just a dream.

Bucky squeezed her fingers, comforting her silently.

Stopping at the door of the house, Rachel frowned, looked sideways at Bucky, and expressed her own doubts: "Why doesn't it seem to change around here? ... I mean, you've seen my house before, it looks just like that It's exactly the same, but the owner of the house is different, so shouldn't the house be built differently?"

Bucky didn't answer, he tightened his jaw and motioned her to look forward.

Rachel passed through the iron gate and saw the old man standing in the front yard, wearing a Chinese tunic suit that was different from others, looking at her lovingly. Almost the next moment, Rachel's eyes widened, completely unbelievable.

"Grandpa... Grandpa?"

"Aqiu." The old man responded with a slow smile.

When Rachel stepped into the house again, she always felt a little dazed. The osmanthus tree in the front yard was still the same as when she left. The last time she went home was only during the New Year. In just a few months, she had already had a A feeling that has been around for years.

"Grandpa..." Rachel threw herself into the arms of the old man with tears in her eyes. In fact, Rachel had never met Grandpa. Rachel was born in the second year after his death. She only saw him in photos. She had heard his story, but the feeling of being connected by blood made her recognize grandpa's identity the first time she saw him.

She had heard a lot about her grandfather when she was young. Grandpa was the only teacher in the village at that time. He was a gentle and refined person who taught every child in the village without reward. Everyone respected and loved him, and he was also steadfast. He is a good man who joined the party and fought on the front line when the country needed him.It wasn't until middle age that he injured his leg and was forced to retire. Only then did he meet his grandma and spend the rest of his life with her as a respectful guest.

She didn't know what to say, why is grandpa here?Where are mom and dad now?Too many questions haunted her, so she didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry, come in." Grandpa patted Rachel on the back to comfort her, and then invited Bucky who was standing vigilant outside the house.

Stepping into the house together, Rachel's eyes widened in shock. Over the past 20 years since her grandfather passed away, Rachel's house has undergone several major renovations, but this place is still exactly the same as when she left!Rachel can even see that the sofa has sunken sitting marks when there is no one there, and the teacup is flying up by itself even if no one touches it, and the tea in the cup is also decreasing little by little, just like, just It's like an invisible person lives in the house!

Rachel was a little speechless. She grabbed Bucky's hand in a panic. She didn't quite understand these strange and chaotic phenomena. Bucky saw the same thing. He frowned and didn't say anything.

"Aqiu." Grandpa called her warmly, his eyes that had already lightened were full of tenderness, "You must really want to know why this place is exactly the same as when you left."

"This house is the intersection of reality and illusion. It is reality." Grandpa pointed to the sunken sitting mark on the sofa and the tea cup stopped in mid-air, and then pointed to Bucky. See through reality, reality cannot touch illusion."

"And now, you have become a variable between reality and illusion."

Rachel opened her mouth, unable to accept the obvious setting of the novel, so she could only simply and roughly ask what she cared about the most.

"Then how should I go back?"

Grandpa smiled.

"It depends on how far you can go."

"Aqiu, don't stay in the illusion for too long, you will lose yourself."

A mist spread from under his feet, and Grandpa stood upright on the spot, still looking at Rachel, and seemed to be looking at others through her.

Bucky quickly took Rachel into his arms and rushed out of the house with her in his arms. After a while, the two looked back, and there was already an open space.
