[Comprehensive English and American] Ripples in time and space

"Wow!" The man yelled in fright, and almost at the same time, there was a slight whizzing sound, and a small knife passed by less than ten centimeters above Kelly's head, and penetrated deeply into the corridor across the corridor. on the wall.If Kelly failed to knock the man down, or if he was followed by others, the knife would not have been inserted into the wallpaper, but into someone's heart and lungs.

Fortunately, this was the only person who came in. He was thrown to the ground by Kelly and escaped unharmed.And Kelly also recognized his identity from his yell: That's Tony!Perhaps because he was drunk, he went to the wrong floor and entered the wrong room in a daze, and just in time for the door to be unlocked.

However, although the crisis was ruled out, Kelly was not sure that the Winter Soldier had recovered from the sudden shock. To be on the safe side, she did not let go of Tony, but instead pressed him firmly to the ground, covering most of his body with her own body And the head, then turned around and let out a low whine at the Winter Soldier.The Winter Soldier had already jumped up from the bed and retreated to the corner, his body was tense, and there was another knife between his fingers.However, after a while, he also recognized Tony, straightened up slowly, and waved to Kelly, but his tense muscles did not relax.

With his permission, Kelly stood up and stepped aside.Tony got up from the ground in shock, and it seemed that most of the alcohol had woken up. He said something vaguely, and quickly retreated.

Kelly stood at the door until the Winter Soldier came up and locked the door, then half pushed him and retreated back to the bed.The Winter Soldier sat down on the carpet beside the bed, stretched out his fleshy hand towards Kelly, his fingertips trembled imperceptibly.Kelly stepped forward and clung to him, allowing the Winter Soldier to dig his fingers deep into her hair and hug her tremblingly.

They curled up in the little corner next to the bed and the wall for a while before the Winter Soldier spoke in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry."

He was still speaking in Russian, but as soon as he had said it, he realized it and said it again in English.Kelly tilted her head and nudged him lightly to indicate that it was okay. She pressed her front paws to the ground, making the carpet display the handwriting: [Vanessa? 】

"She was...the name of a wolf I met before," said the Winter Soldier, more like a sigh, "a white wolf. Smaller than you."

He paused, and Kelly waited for a while, but the Winter Soldier still didn't speak, he didn't know if he didn't want to continue talking or he didn't know where to start.Kelly asked: [Are you friends? 】

"It is," said the Winter Soldier. "I remembered...it was a Hydra mission, I don't know what year it was, they asked me to ambush and kill someone in the Siberian wilderness. But there was a blizzard. Everyone else in Hydra Dead, too stormy, no rescue. I finally found a barely-suffering crypt with Vanessa in it.

"She is too weak to kill me, and I can't kill her. We need to keep each other warm, or we will all die soon. I set traps when the wind and snow are lighter, and occasionally I catch some prey, and I share it with her The blood must be drunk alive, otherwise it will freeze immediately. I named her. We stayed in the cave for a long time, about seven or eight days. She has not hurt me, and will give an alarm if a living thing approaches. I call her, she Will help me catch prey."

【What happened to her afterwards? 】

"Hydra came," said the Winter Soldier, "and they killed her."

It doesn't make sense that Kelly didn't write something like I'm sorry.She just clung to him silently, [You can call me Vanessa when I am a wolf. 】

"It's not fair to you," said the Winter Soldier.

[It's just the name, I don't mind.As long as you don't call me the wrong name in human form. 】

"But you're different. I don't think of you as her," said the Winter Soldier, with a hint of eager justification in his voice, "I didn't."

Kelly gave a small laugh, which for a wolf was more like a low sigh.She turned her head and kissed the Winter Soldier lightly on the cheek.

【Then, thank you for trusting me. 】Fluorescent blue fonts appeared in the air.

After staying with the Winter Soldier for more than half an hour, Kelly left the room after making sure that he was no longer going to sleep.She regained her human form, a Patronus Charm pinpointed Tony's location, and headed upstairs.Tony was on the roof of the building. When Kelly walked up, he was half lying on a chair by the roof with a glass in front of him.

"Sorry to scare you before." Kelly said, walking forward, "I hope there is water in it. If you continue to blow like this, you will have a headache tomorrow."

"Is there any logical connection between your three sentences?" Tony asked lazily on the recliner without looking back.

"No, just the top three in order of importance." Kelly said, walking beside him, "Mind if I join?"

Tony waved his hand indifferently, so Kelly sat down next to him, took a closer look at the glass, and found that it was still wine.

"It's your fault, absolutely." Tony said before her, "I went home to sleep in the middle of the night, and when I opened the door, wow! A wolf taller than me jumped on me and crushed me! Did you have a heart attack please, I swear my CPU overheated for at least half a minute."

"I'm sorry, I should have remembered to lock the door." Kelly said apologetically, "But you broke in suddenly, and I had to suppress you first. This is what the vigil is all about."

Tony rolled his eyes: "Oh, you're keeping vigil for him now?"

"Yes, my pleasure. What's the matter?"

"Nothing. But why on earth would the Winter Soldier trust you so much if you turned into a wolf? It doesn't make sense?"

"There's nothing unreasonable about it," Kelly said. "Psychologically speaking, most people tend to confide their inner truths to animals rather than to other people, probably because animals can't speak and therefore can't tell the truth." trust.” She hid the past between the Winter Soldier and Vanessa, after all, it was considered the Winter Soldier’s privacy, “Even if I know rationally that I am human, the psychological inertia brought about by intuitive feelings is still very strong. Difficult to remove."

Tony gave a absent-minded hum: "To be honest, if it were someone else, I would have thought he liked playing with humans and beasts. You haven't played with humans and beasts, have you? Wait, it's better that I don't know the answer."

"Of course not, my God, Tony." Kelly shook her head half resignedly half amused, deciding whether he had drunk too much or not continuing this conversation.She lowered her head, her body fell down, and the figure disappeared in an instant, only a giant wolf half the height of a man stood in front of Tony.

"Seriously? Turning into a wolf after a disagreement? This is so naive, I wonder who is 17 years old, me or you? I wouldn't do such a thing when I was 17 years old, of course I wouldn't Just change into a wolf. Wait, if I could, I might actually change a lot, it looks like fun, can you still talk? Can you understand human speech?"

The wolf snorted at him, took a few steps forward, and sat down next to Tony.Tony looked at her curiously, as if he didn't know where to put his hands: "So you understand? Can't understand? Well, this question is meaningless. If you don't understand, obviously you can't answer me, right? , can I touch it? Not that I'd really like to touch it or anything, just, you know, for science…"

Before he finished speaking, the giant wolf turned slightly towards him and lowered his head.Tony stared at it a little uncertainly for a few seconds: "So I guess it's a consent?" He said he had touched it with his hand, "I'll take it as a consent, please don't bite off my hand."

As an arctic wolf, the white wolf's fur is very thick, and his five fingers are sunk in the long white fur, and he strokes it repeatedly.

"You know, I guess I haven't thanked you yet." After a moment's pause, Tony said suddenly, "For, you know, to save my parents. Although part of this is your boyfriend's fault—" White Wolf A low whine came from his throat, "Okay, okay, don't blame your boyfriend. Anyway, that's it, thanks."

They sat on the roof for the rest of the hours, Tony talked about various topics that were so jumpy that people couldn't find their way from time to time, and Kelly just squatted beside him silently.It dawned late in winter, and when the sky lightened slightly, Tony was already staggering sleepily on the roof.Kelly pleaded with him several times but it didn't work, and finally she changed back into a human form, and picked him up: "Go back to the room and sleep."

"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm." Tony made a series of vague sounds, and was reluctantly dragged all the way to the bedroom by her.Kelly threw him half-supported and half-dragged on the bed, thought about it, and added a healing spell to soothe the hangover so that he wouldn't have a headache when he woke up.Maybe it was the hangover, Tony seemed a little more awake, but he was still half asleep in a daze.Kelly stood by the bed and stared at him for a few seconds. Tony felt her gaze and opened half of his eyes: "Huh?"

Kelly smiled and shook her head: "I just want to tell you," she said, "If you can tell half of what you say to the wolf-shaped me, you can honestly tell your friends and family around you, the result will be good. Much more."

As she said that, she thought about Ultron and Civil War, and she hoped that such a thing would not happen in this universe. "People can be trusted too, Tony. There's nothing wrong with being honest."

Tony hummed vaguely, but Kelly knew he had heard her words.She turned and left, closed the door, turned back into a giant wolf, listened for a while, then trotted downstairs with almost silent steps.
