Superhero Damage Control [Comprehensive]

Steve was once again locked into the brainwashing machine, which hummed with electricity.

Steve is going through his third brainwashing, having failed the first two, and he shows a strong sense of resistance, with a Red Room soldier wearing a red hat repeating the brainwashing words over and over again.

"It still failed." The soldier reported.

Lucy was about to take over: "Then try again." She walked over to Steve, lifted his chin, and looked him in the eyes, "Don't fight it, soldier, focus, remember... "

"You violated discipline, ma'am." Ivchenko suddenly appeared behind her, and he severely reprimanded Lucy.

But Lucy could only lower her head and act submissively: "I'm sorry, I just want to make up."

Ivchenko gave her a hard look, and waved the soldier to turn on the brainwashing device again. When it stopped, Ivchenko asked the soldier to recite the brainwashing words, while he threw a ball at Steve. One question after another.

"your name."

Steve's expression struggled for a long time: "Steve Rogers."

Just as the soldier was about to turn on the brainwashing device again, Ivchenko stopped the soldier. He continued to ask, "Your identity?"

Steve answered quickly this time: "I am the Winter Soldier, a believer in Hydra, and the husband of Lady Hydra."

When Ivchenko heard this, he turned to Lucy and said, "You don't need to make up for it, you've already succeeded. The more he resists, the more successful you are in brainwashing him."

Lucy looked up.

Ivchenko looked at her: "His second personality has been formed. Good job, ma'am, but we need to make sure he is an obedient fighter. So, do it again." Ivchenko pointed to the Soldier, the brainwashing machine is working again.

When Lucy listened to Steve's screams and almost reached the peak of her anger, she forced herself to calm down again.She made a gesture of apology to Ivchenko and left without a word.

"Woman." Ivchenko snorted disdainfully, and when Lucy's figure completely disappeared, he walked towards Steve, and he hypnotized Steve.

"Soldier, you will accomplish a great task tonight." Ivchenko whispered like a demon, "Kill Howard Stark."

Steve raised his head slowly, his eyes began to focus: "Follow your instructions, comrade."

Lucy walked into another room, and she looked at the coffin-like cryogenic chamber, with the mist gently brushing the glass, Bucky Barnes' face slowly revealed.

Lucy smiled bitterly: "Good afternoon, Sleeping Beauty."

Too bad Bucky couldn't hear it.

Lucy had too much to say, but there were surveillance everywhere, and she controlled her urge to hug the ice coffin and bring Bucky closer.

"You still owe me a wedding."

Lucy said silently, and at the same time she found it ridiculous that she had already put on someone else's ring.

She had been waiting for Steve outside, but it was Ivchenko who finally came.

"Where's my husband?" Lucy asked.

Ivchenko piled up a smirk: "He has greater tasks to accomplish."

Lucy suddenly changed color.

Jarvis drove the truck to a wilderness, and he poked his head out to look around.After a while, Ivchenko showed up with someone, and he looked at Jarvis mockingly: "Where did Stark's shrinking turtle go?"

Jarvis ignored Ivchenko, he turned the suitcase in his hand, and eight bags of super soldier serum were revealed in front of Ivchenko.

Jarvis said, "Where's Barnes?"

Ivchenko blew a whistle, and another truck was side by side with Jarvis's, and eight soldiers lifted out an ice coffin from the truck. Jarvis saw the people inside, he took a deep breath, and moved his index finger slightly After making a sign of the cross, he carefully took out some kind of instrument from his car, carefully checked around the human cryogenic chamber, and after confirming that there were no explosives, he directed people to carry the ice coffin into his own car. in the car.

"So Stark isn't planning on coming to meet old friends?" Ivchenko stretched out his arms.

Jarvis took half a step back in horror.

"Then how do I know this is the real serum?" Ivchenko made things difficult for Jarvis.

Jarvis showed embarrassment, and finally rolled up his sleeves: "If you are not afraid of waste, give me an injection, I don't really want to be a super soldier, I just want to be a good housekeeper, but I think Mr. Stark doesn't mind either There is a good housekeeper who can do housework for four people."

Ivchenko sneered, he pressed Jarvis on the car, tied him with an infusion rubber tube, and inserted a pack of serum needles into Jarvis' vein.Jarvis watched the blue serum flow down the tube little by little, and shrugged at Ivchenko fearlessly.

Before the serum hit Jarvis' vein, Ivchenko withdrew the needle: "Well, I believe it's true."

Jarvis drove away in the truck, and Ivchenko nodded to the depths of the woods and returned to his car.

There was a hum of the engine, and in the depths of the woods, a motorcycle flew away.

Jarvis drove the car to a corner, poked his head out, imitated the cuckoo and called twice, a country farmer rushed up, it was Howard, he hurriedly urged Jarvis to drive quickly: "how about it?" , is there anyone following?"

"I walked around for a long time on purpose, of course not." Jarvis looked nervously at the rearview mirror, and once again confirmed that no one was following him. "When will they find out that it's a fake serum?"

"Fake serum? I never make fake products." Howard took off all the camouflage on his body and wiped his face clean. "That batch of serum really can't be real anymore."

Jarvis almost slammed on the brakes, exclaiming, "How could you do that? If the Soviets made super soldiers..."

Howard interrupted Jarvis: "That's impossible, the serum must be stabilized by life ray exposure, they don't have that kind of thing, there is only one serum from the beginning, the red skull and Steve are the same of."

Jarvis certainly knew the story: "I've heard that serums make good people better and bad people worse."

Howard rolled his eyes and put on his seat belt: "It's all for kid's fun. What really works is not the serum, but your heart. What makes a hero is not how strong a person is, but how strong his soul is." How great..." Howard sneered, "How is it possible, if people can do things with their will, I can now build a breathing zone on the moon. Remember my motto, only science is great. "

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud noise on the roof of the truck.

Howard yelled: "You said no one came after you!"

"It's the back! Sir! No one is chasing from behind, but I didn't say the top!" Jarvis turned the steering wheel urgently, and the car almost drifted out. The people on the roof were thrown out due to the unstable center of gravity. On the left wall of the car.

Howard and Jarvis saw the killer at the same time. He was wearing a mask, his blond hair was exposed, and two scorpion submachine guns hung on his shoulders. As soon as Jarvis poked his head, a shuttle of bullets hit him and collapsed. rearview mirror.

"Where did he go?" Howard asked.

"Don't ask me, sir! I don't have a mirror now. Where is the vanity mirror you used to use before you met those sluts?"

"I've thrown it away a long time ago. I'm a married man! I've had, a little bit! A little bit! Nothing to do with those slutty women!"

After Howard finished yelling, the face of the blond killer appeared on the car window. Howard grabbed a pistol from the glove box and shot it out. The killer turned his head to avoid the bullet, but shattered the glass instead.

The killer pulled the car window with one hand, and reached in with the other to strangle Jarvis's neck. Jarvis' eyes burst into tears because of suffocation.

Suddenly, the killer let go of his hand, a row of bullets hit along the wall of the car, and one bullet hit the killer's right shoulder.Jarvis breathed heavily, he coughed loudly, and he still kept his grip on the steering wheel firmly. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of another motorcycle rider approaching. At first he thought that the motorcycle rider was an accomplice of the killer, but he Wrong guesses, the motorcyclists were there to save them.

A steel claw hooked the killer's shoulder, and the motorcyclist immediately braked, and the killer was pulled out with the door and the driver. Jarvis took the opportunity to step on the accelerator and fled quickly.

Steve grabbed the sharp claws on his shoulders, he threw open the car door, and chased in the direction of Howard regardless of the blood dripping on his shoulders. The warriors began to fight in blood and dust, and they didn't leave any room for each other, as if they only wanted to kill each other.

Steve pulled out a knife from the outside of his thigh, and using the red room's unique fighting technique, he stabbed another killer's abdomen at a tricky angle. A stab wound to the abdomen, snatching the knife, shoving Steve to the ground with his legs clamped around his body, the knife down on his throat.

One second, two seconds...

There's a line of blood running down Steve's throat, and he doesn't seem like he's going to resist.

The killer roared, threw the knife out, stood up unsteadily, clutching his stomach and leaning against the mountain.

"I can't do it..." The killer took off the mask, revealing Lucy's face, she cried and laughed, she begged to heaven, "I really can't do it, God... don't torture me like this, I Unbearable."

It's been ten years since she came into this world, she endured the fear of the future, endured her lover being tortured over and over in front of her, endured the same bed with Steve Rogers, and now she almost killed Steve. Husband, she really couldn't bear it any longer.

Steve got up, and he stroked Lucy's already weeping face, which was covered with dust.

He asked, "Why?"

Why did you stop him, why did you want to kill him, why did you betray the organization?

Lucy didn't give him an answer.

Steve said, "I've got to report this."

Lucy nodded: "Go and expose me, let me die in this era, fuck off its future, let everyone go to hell!" She pushed Steve away, and limped back alone Only then did she realize that the most seriously injured was not her lower abdomen, but her calf, which was broken.

Steve stays where he is for a moment, digs a bullet out of his shoulder, throws it into the ravine, catches up to Lucy, and picks her up.

Lucy leaned against Steve's broad chest, and closed her eyes to the soundless heartbeat beneath the hard muscles.

"Winter Soldier, report on your mission." Ivchenko sat in front of Steve with a blank expression.

"Mission failed." Steve repeated the answer, his eyes were blank, and whenever Ivchenko asked anything, he would answer it truthfully.

"reason?"

"I was blocked by someone."

"who?"

Steve frowned, the question had aroused his resistance, and it took him a long time before he said, "A woman."

"Who is she, is she one of us?"

Everyone held their breath, waiting for that answer.

Steve shook his head: "I didn't see clearly."

Ivchenko sighs, the answer doesn't make sense to him, but there's only so much information Steve can give.

Lucy waited for the trial in her room. She waited from morning to night, and heard the conversations of Soviet soldiers outside countless times, but in the end, these sounds were far away. She leaned on her bed and waited. At dawn, when the sky was turning pale, she heard the sound of the door lock opening. Steve walked to the window and stood on the balcony. Lucy was watching his back from behind him. Steve looked exhausted. , the two of them waited until sunrise without saying a word.

Steve finally said, "I didn't expose you."

Lucy was a little surprised: "How did you do it? They all brainwashed you."

"I resisted it, and sometimes feigning compliance is part of the resistance," Steve said.

The two were silent again for a while.

"Why?" Lucy finally couldn't help asking.

Why didn't she be exposed, why did she protect her?

"I love you, ma'am." Steve finally turned his head, he walked to the head of the bed, knelt down on one knee, held Lucy's hand, and placed it on his forehead, "Even if you don't love me, But I still love you."

Lucy heard the sound of her heart breaking like glass.

In May 1972, the Justice Department opened a fourth hearing on Howard, charging him with treason.

The lawyers of Stark Industries have worn out their lips, just not allowing Stark to participate in any hearings with interrogation activities, and it seems that the FBI and the CIA seem to have made an appointment. They harassed Stark's mansion without interruption, spied on them outside, and even stalked Tony Stark.

Finally one day when Tony and Jarvis were going out, a piano on the roof fell off and hit Tony's side. This shock almost made him speechless for almost a week.Howard thought about it with his toes and knew that it should be the robbers and bandits of the FBI. The FBI couldn't really hurt them, but it could cause indelible mental trauma.

"We can send Tony to boarding school." Howard said helplessly.

"He's so small!" Maria exclaimed.

Howard said: "Spend a little more money, and the principal will provide him with the best protection for my sake, which is better than letting him endure this..." He controlled his urge to swear, and finally fell silent.

Maria still rejected the suggestion, she turned to ask other things: "Is Bucky okay?"

"Same as it is." Howard sighed. "I've tried a few remedies, but nothing worked, good and bad."

"He was fine when he just came back and didn't recover his memory," Maria said.

"Because brainwashing suppressed the side effects of the serum." Howard sneered, "Actually, the method of making super soldiers has always been in the hands of the Soviets, but they never thought of how to use it."

At this time, Jarvis's panicked voice sounded outside the restaurant. He was blocking Peggy Carter, but everyone knew that he couldn't succeed. If even the Nazis couldn't stop Carter, let alone others .

"Howard, how long are you going to hide? I heard about Tony." Carter was furious.

Howard was also ignited at once: "Then you ran over and blamed me? Those fierce bandits used such extreme methods to frighten a child under ten years old, and you blamed me instead?"

"Take a questioning from the Department of Justice, if you're innocent, your lawyer will fix everything for you, all they want is for you to put your bloody hand on the Constitution in court and say everything you said Never lie!"

Howard began to avoid Peggy's eyes, and Peggy Carter realized immediately.

"Oh my God." Carter covered his mouth. "You really committed treason. What did you give them? Stark Industries missiles? Shower bombs, time bombs?"

Peggy had vaguely guessed the final answer, and she felt deeply betrayed.

"You promised, Stark, you said you wouldn't make any more serums!"

Howard hummed for a while: "Let me correct you in advance, I promised not to use the blood samples left by Steve to make serum, but I didn't say..."

Carter punched Howard, and Howard spun around in place before falling to the ground.Carter rubbed his fist: "Give me a reason to forgive you."

Maria helped Howard up: "Tell her."

"No, there's no reason." Howard rubbed his cheeks, "I'm treasonous, let them talk about it, Howard Stark is a communist, communist, and he intends to fund the Soviet Union to rule the world and help the Warsaw Pact make weapons."

Maria kept stopping Howard from continuing, she didn't want to make things worse.

"It's Bucky Barnes." Maria said it first, she couldn't let the matter get out of control like this, she warned Howard, "You must get Peggy's support at this time, Howard, stop being stubborn, Think about Tony, think about our family, are you going to flee as a traitor for the rest of your life, what about us?"

"What?" Peggy froze.

Howard walked around the dining room twice anxiously, overturning the entire table. He wanted to get angry at his wife, but he had no position.

"Bucky is still alive?" Carter couldn't hold back his tears, "Why didn't you tell me, what's there to hide?"

"The Soviets used Bucky Barnes as a weapon." Howard's face was gloomy. "Do you think we won't do that?"

Carter was speechless.

In June 1972, Howard Stark was acquitted while Bucky Barnes' name dominated the headlines.

"The last super soldier survives!"

"Who will hold the shield? William Burnside (Captain Mad) or Bucky Barnes?"

"Return of the Veteran: The Legendary Barnes"

The matter was being discussed on every American radio station, with many agreeing that Bucky Barnes would certainly pose a status threat to the current unofficially authorized Captain America, William Burnside.

"I think Bucky Barnes is going to succeed Steve Rogers as the real Captain America, and it's time for the fake Captain to go, especially since he dragged a 17-year-old girl from her home to the street to be raped." A female listener on the radio said, "We can't let the title of Captain America fall into the hands of this kind of person."

Another viewer also called immediately: "I want to correct what the last one said just now, that was not done by Captain Burnside, he did what he should do, made public the people who are harmful to this country, but That girl just happened to meet a bunch of teenage boys, can we blame Burnside for that?"

"Burnside is at best an imitator of Captain America, and Barnes, that is the person who has really played Captain America back to back. No matter from which aspect, Barnes is better."

The U.S. government held a grand return ceremony for Barnes. The army general received him, his rank was promoted, he went on the radio, and the president received him... Bucky couldn't stop like a spinning top. He returned to Stark's house with a tired face. Villa, Tony rushed over to hug him, Bucky put Tony on his shoulders: "You seem to have gained weight recently, little chubby!"

"No, it's not, the mass of my brain is increasing." Tony said angrily.

Howard leaned against the door and smiled at the two of them, Bucky put Tony down, patted his head, coaxed him to play, followed Howard to the basement, Howard took out a tube of potion, Bucky put his sleeve Pull up and wait for Howard to inject him.

"How is today?" Howard flicked the needle tube, and he pushed the blue potion in. This potion has been irradiated with life rays. It is observed that it will reduce the side effects of the serum on the spirit. He can only use it now This is the way to help Bucky.

A ruthless expression appeared between Bucky's brows: "Do you know William Burnside? The Nazi who bears the name of Steve?"

"Be careful what you say, he is now supported by the Americans." Howard snorted, he himself did not agree with the so-called 'Captain America' who beat up people with a star shield, in his opinion, that was a jumping beam clown.

"Who? The Ku Klux Klan (white supremacists)?" Bucky taunted. Is mom ridiculous?"

"He's just a part," Howard said. "He'll always represent a part of this country. He can't represent justice, and he can't represent forever."

Burnside does not represent eternity. When Bucky obeyed his boss's order to "deal with" the crazy captain, he sadly realized that Burnside did not represent justice, because there is no justice in this world. up.

At the end of 1972, Lucy received an order from Hydra and returned to New York.

When she saw Zola at the Martinique Club, she was taken aback. The other party had aged rapidly in just two years. They held a meeting as usual to chat about the development of Hydra. Lucy keenly I found that some high-level officials of Hydra seem to have their own thoughts. They are like poisonous snakes lurking in the dark, and they may want to replace Zola anytime and anywhere.

After their meeting Zola left Lucy behind.

"What did you see?" Zora asked.

Lucy hesitated, and Zola urged her to speak up. Lucy named four people: "They don't respect you, and that's intolerable."

"When you reach my age, you can tolerate anything." Zola smiled, "When you see the law of change in this world clearly and know that you have a higher goal, how can you still fight for the things in front of you? Motivated by interests?"

Lucy agreed.

"How is Rogers?" Zola mentioned Steve like a kind old man, as if he really cared about the marital status of his subordinates.

"He doesn't need to be brainwashed to perform tasks now." Lucy said, and Zola continued to listen with great interest, "I don't agree with brainwashing, leader. Especially after I came into contact with the means of the red room, I don't agree. "

"why?"

"Because I want a loyal fighter, not a killing machine." Lucy said, "A perfect logical system and sufficient emotional support can create a powerful fighter. Let him thoroughly understand and agree with the concept of Hydra , at that time, no order is needed, and it can help you accomplish your goal."

Lucy looked annoyed.

"The red room is abusing Steve Rogers, they're going to tell him to assassinate some people, they're using him like the KGB, when in reality they're just taking out their own political and diplomatic enemies," Lucy said. The Soviet Union is rotten, they play a noble banner, but they end up in bureaucratic political battles... and so does Hydra."

Lucy made this point, but Zora didn't contradict it, and he seemed to worry about the same thing.

"Leader, our team is not pure. People put their desire for power first, and the belief in Hydra has become second. 'Cut off one head and grow two', this sentence Everyone is talking about it, but they have forgotten the tenacity and tolerance that this sentence represents." Lucy took a deep breath, and she said word by word, "This, no, yes."

Zola carefully considered the truthfulness of the words of the woman in front of him, and he knew that what Lady Hydra said was true.

"Before you come back, they are forcing me to find my successor." Zola said, and he handed a silver badge engraved with Hydra to Lucy, "I found it."

Lucy didn't pick it up, the badge fell to the ground, and she anxiously asked Zola what happened.

Zola's old eyes were full of helplessness: "I have been diagnosed with cancer."
