"It's okay..." Tony still rubbed her hair, as if it was the same as usual.

Are you all right? Lin Xi shouted in her heart. The calmer she was, the more frightened she became. It would be fine if Tony's angry expression was obvious, but it was very subtle, which made her panic.

"Is that the thing?" Lin Xi said cautiously, she didn't specify, but with Tony's intelligence, he immediately knew what she was talking about.

"It's not something children should worry about... Heh, friend." Tony was tired of answering, and he asked Lin Xi to stay alone for a while.

So the girl didn't see Tony again that day. She thought that since he had all returned to the base, it should prove that things were not the worst. Steve's shield hadn't been brought back, maybe he just wanted to be alone quietly.

In any case, it is better than fighting each other.

Tony sat on the leather chair facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the grass, woods and lake outside the window, recalling what Steve said, the suppressed sadness welled up again.

Tony went to Wakanda to tell Steve that their arrest warrant had been lifted and they could choose to come back, but the captain declined, saying that Bucky had been Hydra's Winter Soldier after all, and the influence was not good.

"What am I afraid of." Tony patted his chest and assured, "No one can snatch someone from me."

Steve smiled a little forcedly: "I'm glad you said that, Tony, but I believe you won't think so when you know about it."

He led Bucky to an empty space with Tony following behind.Bucky was silent, Steve looked apologetic, and they just looked at each other in silence, Tony's smile gradually faded, and they were both waiting for the other to speak.

"Tony, do you still remember what happened in Siberia more than half a month ago?" Steve asked.

"of course."

"Then do you still remember the unfinished video?"

Tony nodded, he had a vague guess in his heart but he didn't want to admit it, maybe he thought too much, he didn't want to face the truth.

"Tony." Steve called his name emphatically again, "Your parents... were killed by Bucky."

With a "bang", Tony took a few steps back, and black spots appeared in front of his eyes. He couldn't help closing his eyes to stay awake.

Sure enough, it was useless to escape, the truth was right there, he knew it, he had known it since Siberia, the rejoicing look of the little girl when she mentioned it, and the hesitating look of the captain before leaving.He's not blind, but it's good to just maintain the surface, that can be regarded as ignorance.

But the facts have been told, and Tony can no longer pretend to be stupid. Two entangled emotions prevent him from making a decision.On the one hand, Bucky killed his parents, which he has always brooded about.But on the other hand, Bucky did it under the control of Hydra, and it was definitely not his intention.

"Tony... sorry." Steve apologized, sincerely.

Tony opened his eyes suddenly and summoned his armor. When the sound of the visor closing sounded, he raised his palm cannon: "Back, I said back."

"Tony." Of course Steve couldn't watch him kill Bucky, "You can't do that."

"I can't?" Tony was aroused, "Why didn't he think so when he killed my parents? Huh? You are challenging my bottom line, back off!"

Steve still wanted to speak, but Bucky pulled him back, and he whispered something to Steve, only to see the captain frowned but still walked away until the other person who could see them The corner stops.

"This incident is indeed my fault, and you can punish it any way you want." Bucky said, this was the first time he said a long sentence to Tony, "I will not resist."

"Heh." Tony snorted coldly, the cannon in his palm gathered energy to emit a bright white light, he aimed at Bucky, Steve suppressed his conditioned reflexes, and couldn't help but clenched the shield even more.

Watching Tony shrink his palms, Bucky closes his eyes, bracing for the pain to come, but to his surprise, he just feels the heat of the shells scraping past him, and it doesn't hit him.

"Boom---" The sound of the shell hitting the wall sounded, and the crack spread outward from the impact point, and some stones fell.

"This is just a small punishment. I will remove your mechanical arm later. I don't want to see any Hydra." Tony turned off the transmitter and walked towards the gate without looking back, " And it's best not to let me see you during this time, I'm afraid I can't help but beat you."

So the matter that originally led to the split between the two ended like this. There were many factors that caused the consequences, not only that the timing of Zemo's video playback happened just after the differences between the two were resolved, but also that Bucky and Steve were not in the first place. Time to apologize.

You can say that this kind of thing is exposed by others, but Steve still thinks that Tony will kill his friend because of this---impossible thing.If you calm down, everyone knows it, but people's emotions are the most unpredictable, and they are easily influenced by them.

Tony is a generous person, and Steve is also a considerate person, but it's about people and things that both of them care about. It's just such a coincidence that they are blinded by emotions at the same time.

Otherwise Tony wouldn't have answered that way.

"He's my friend."

"Sowas I."

Past tense, the past tense he used, when Lin Xi saw it for the first time, he thought of Tony’s angry and sad mood at that time. Steve was his friend, but why did he fight him for another friend? Is it just because Bucky and he are of the same age?

This is an unsolvable problem.

"Huh...not bad." Bucky patted Steve on the shoulder, "I said an apology would be useful, you don't have to worry about me."

"But after all..." Steve said, "the death of his parents has always been a scar on his heart."

"Then you spend all this time with Tony, don't you know what kind of character he is?"

Steve fell silent, suddenly realizing how stupid his doubts and worries were. Tony wasn't impulsive, never was.

Why doesn't he understand what even Bucky understands?

"I guess I was wrong." He and Bucky walked back and met the kids who greeted and responded in a friendly way.

"But one thing I doubt is that I haven't broken the prejudice until now, but even if I had disagreements with Tony before, it wouldn't be like this, as if that's not what I normally do." Steve leaned on the trunk, watching Said the children who were playing wildly not far away. (Why? Lovely Lin Xi told you not to underestimate the power of the plot.)

"But the matter has been resolved, hasn't it?" Bucky replied with a smile, the quiet and peaceful atmosphere faded his coldness and hostility, he is no longer Hydra's Winter Soldier, he is him.

Bucky Barnes.

------

The memory ends.

Tony tapped his fingers on the tabletop, thinking about what he could do to free himself.

Drinking and indulging is not his style anymore, he can only feel relaxed when doing experiments, so...

"Just make an arm for that same old popsicle, although Wakanda may prepare it too, but if he dares to refuse, I'll beat him up." Tony muttered, turning around on the leather chair.

Just do what you say, Tony immediately entered the laboratory to record his thoughts, he couldn't feel the change of time when he was doing things, and no one reminded him --- he wouldn't do that on Friday, and the little girl couldn't get in either. Come, so it caused him to stay up all night.

Tony didn't realize until the sun was rising over the horizon again, rubbing his sore eyes and asking, "Friday, what time is it?"

"Boss." Friday replied immediately, "Five o'clock sharp."

"Let's prepare breakfast, I haven't eaten for most of the day." Tony recorded the data he got, and carefully put away the arm model.

He's not very good at this combination of biology and physics, but who is he?He is Tony Stark, there is nothing he can't learn, if there is, learn it twice.

Tony spent one third of his time researching neural connections, another third of his time designing a realistic solution, and the rest for modeling.

"Breakfast is already set on the table," replied Friday, unexpectedly, immediately after Tony's order.

Tony obviously thought of something: "Someone prepared it in advance? Lin Xi?"

He didn't think it was made by Vision, not that he didn't have that kind of thought, but that after Tony once tasted the dishes made by Vision, he couldn't eat any more food for almost a whole day---either it was too salty or the taste was too strong, Tony didn't understand. How did the tutorial make it like that? Although he himself is not very good, he definitely didn't make dark dishes like Vision.

"Yes, Miss Lin Xi asked my boss when you would come out at night, and I gave an estimated time, and she made it before you came out." Friday added the facts, "The temperature is just right now. "

Tony showed a comfortable smile. The girl's thoughtfulness made him feel relaxed. The fatigue after the experiment is best relieved with a light breakfast. He doesn't only like cheeseburgers and donuts like before. Sometimes a bowl of porridge Not bad --- the way of health preservation in the East.

He walked to the dining table and sat down, drinking the still warm porridge, and suddenly felt peaceful and peaceful, and the fragrance lingered in the air, diluting the smell of motor oil on Tony's body.

"Mr. Stark? Are you out?" The girl's soft voice sounded, Tony looked up and found Lin Xi standing on the stairs, yawning and talking to him.

"Thank you for your preparation." He raised the bowl in his hand and shook it gently, "Why don't you continue to sleep for a while?"

"I went to bed early yesterday, so that's it." Lin Xi sat down opposite Tony, resting her head in a daze to clear her sleepy thoughts.

Tony looked at the girl, thought about the situation in the base, and suddenly realized that he had ignored her psychological state: "What's the matter? Is it boring to stay in the base all the time?"
