[Zhongyingmei] The beating heart

"Bial! Wait! Please...I have something to tell you!" Alex finally caught Beal when he arrived at the control room. Things, according to what HG said now, he also has a more important matter, "very important - talk about it alone."

"...Okay." Bea thought for a while, she stopped and walked aside with Alex.Both Roland and Ian followed the others to the control room.Roland is very active, always bouncing around and looking cheerful, but his elder brother Ian is very calm and doesn't like to talk.

"First of all... are you still mad at me?" Alex asked first, raising his eyebrows, "but I won't apologize. I really...really think so. And I'm asking for more Not too much."

"I know." Bea sighed, looking down, "Sorry for yelling at you and Kurt and Loki just now. I'm not really... angry. It's just...Alex Max, I was sent by Captain Turing to save the world. Do you remember this?"

"Ah. I remember. You told me the first day we got here." Alex was relieved, it looked like Bea wasn't angry anymore, that's good.

"At the beginning, my thought was... ah, I can see Captain, live Captain America, so looking forward to it! But then..." Then everything changed.When those people, those people are no longer virtual heroes on the screen or on paper, when they stand in front of you alive, they smile at you, protect you, or talk to you, when you become their friend, you will find ...everything has changed.Bea supported her head, "I want to help them Alex. I don't want to get the order wrong. It should be me to save them, I should protect them."

"Haven't you helped enough?" Alex didn't know why Beer was chosen to 'save the world', and he didn't want to ask Beer's unspoken secret. He just knew that the order was not wrong, " Dr. Pym you helped me find, and if it weren't for you I'd still be the source of a possible zombie crisis in Manhattan. Then there's Steve, Bucky, and maybe Tony, all of them... yep, and There's Kurt. You saved him, didn't you?"

"But Alex..." Beer bit her lip and raised her head to look at Alex, "I also want to be like Brother Superman, and I also want to move icebergs or something to help everyone."

"It doesn't matter who that 'Brother Superman' is. Iceberg is useless now." Alex held Beer's face, and then kissed her lips lightly, "You are protecting us in your own way .That's something only you can do. So, let us protect you. After all, that's something only we can do."

"Hmm..." Bea hugged Alex and buried her head in his arms, "What did you want to tell me just now?"

correct.And this thing... Alex suddenly felt that this was not a good time.But just like HG said, the later you know, the more painful it will be: "Well, it's about... about Ian and Roland."

"What's wrong with them?" Bea suddenly distanced herself from Alex and looked up at him, "Don't tell me what they will become... monsters!"

"No...it's not." Maybe it's a good thing if that's the case.Alex said, "HG said that the machine that built them was a scientist who happened to have the same name as Dr. Pym... that machine had some... flaws. Ian and Roland and the others... only lived for six hours."

"What..." Six hours? !How could it be... Bi'er didn't know what to say for a while, she still wanted to show off her pair of twin sons to others, maybe the twins could become Peter's friends... and she wanted them to see Look at the super handsome Mr. Reese and the captain, but...why...

"Bier...they know about it themselves." Alex saw Beer stunned, he grabbed Beer's shoulder and bent slightly to look into her eyes, "You can't change this things, so...it's better to let them experience these six hours."

"Will they die?" Bi'er covered her mouth, she looked up through the glass of the control room and looked at Ian and Roland who were talking to Nathan, "Will they... be in pain? I mean, after six hours...?"

"HG said they would die of organ failure." Alex wanted to say no, but he couldn't lie, "Bi'er, hey..." He hugged Bier who was crying, "This isn't you wrong."

"No... Maybe it's my fault..." What if I didn't make them?If your own blood hadn't been splashed on that machine, if...not Bier, you still can't change the fact that has happened.Bea told herself, controlling her emotions, "Alex, shall we take them to meet everyone? The Avengers? And... the Master Chief, Commander Shepherd, Starship... and Peter. Maybe they'll be friends, maybe..." Find some way to make those six hours longer.

"Okay, no problem. Okay...don't cry." Alex patted Bea's head vigorously, "They sure don't want to see you cry, right?"

"Hmm..." Bea nodded vigorously, she wiped away her tears, and then said, "Then Alex should be nicer to them too?"

"Okay..." probably.Alex had a headache when he thought of the guy who rushed to hug him just now.Speaking of which, the posture of rushing over is quite similar to that of Bier.Is it really 'natural'?Just when Beer was about to go to the control room, Alex remembered something again, "By the way, isn't it true that I told you to raise Loki?"

"..." Bi'er turned her head to look at Alex and narrowed her eyes slightly, "I can only support Crimson Gaze and the type like you who don't need to eat."

"Am I a pet?"

"Oh... this one~~" Bea came back and hugged Alex's neck, "Where is such a good pet like you?"

"Then what am I?" Alex picked up Beer and walked around in a circle, then walked into the shadow of the shelf next to him, "Ah wait...don't say it. I can do anything...but it's not like I don't have to eat something?"

"Then what do you want to eat?"

"..." Without answering, Alex kissed Bea and pushed her to the shelf, sucking her lips and tongue, and then kept changing the angle until——

"Hey! Are you two kidding me?!" came a protesting voice from the control room. "You dropped Houdini's wallet! And don't touch that whistle!"

"Oh my god..." Alex stopped abruptly, and he sighed, "He's right. This place isn't great. I don't want another stupid ferret."

Bea laughed, and then kissed Alex again: "Let's go. I think Tony and the others must want to know what we have done. The doctor doesn't know if he succeeded... If he succeeded, then I don't have to pretend to be him anymore!"

"Even if you don't succeed, you are not allowed to pretend to be him again." Alex emphasized so, he took Beer's hand and walked back to the control room together, "You know what? When you first said you were a doctor , I almost believed it. So next time you better tell me who you want to pretend to be in advance."

"Then, Mr. Stark~" Roland looked at Nathan seriously with a troubled expression, and he said, "Six hours, isn't it a short time?"

"Huh? In six hours..." How long did it take for the earth to go from being safe and sound to the present state of near-collapse?Nathan didn't know why Roland asked this suddenly, he said, "It should be enough to take back the Earth."

"Really? Can you still do that kind of thing?!" Roland suddenly showed a happy expression, "Look, brother! Let me just say, it's not very short! We can still save the earth with our mother! "

"Okay... don't drag me. That's what I said, but have you already figured out how to tell Mom about this?" Ian looked calmer, and he asked, "Mom doesn't know yet, right?"

"I don't know what?" Nathan suddenly felt that something was wrong, why did he ask for six hours...why did Roland...

"Ah, Mr. Stark doesn't know..." Roland turned his head to look at Nathan, he laughed and said, "My brother and I seem to only live for six hours."

"What, what?!" Nathan was taken aback, why could he say such a thing so easily, that smiling face...he said, "How can it be! You seem to have perfectly shaped your personality and body , it should be impossible to—”

"Everyone before, everyone who came out of that machine, only had that long time. We all remember." Roland still had a gentle and hearty smile, and he said, "It's okay, because I knew this from the beginning. A little bit, so I didn't feel any pain or anything..."

Do you all remember the memory of the body made from the machine... I really want to know how that thing works.But this is the NO.13 warehouse, not Eureka, and not everything works.Nathan tried not to let himself think about those academic things. He said, "Don't Beer know about this?"

"Hmm... Looking at Mom, I guess she doesn't know?" Roland fell into deep thought again, "Should we tell her? Mr. Stark? Mom, she will be very sad...I don't want to make Mom sad !"

"..." You asked me and I too...Nathan didn't know what to do.He looked through the window of the control room to Alex and Beer who were talking below, not knowing what Alex was talking to Beer.But if you tell her about Roland and the others...Damn it.Such equipment, why not put it in a safer place... No matter what is produced with that kind of thing, it will only be a tragedy in the end!

"It's okay, Mr. Stark. We didn't... feel pain." Ian saw Nathan's mood, and he said, "Having six hours is much better than nothing. The... people before us. They Not as lucky as us.”

"Well. They don't have a mother." Roland nodded and said, "It's great that mother didn't abandon us. It doesn't matter if she dies now, so don't feel sad for us, Mr. Stark~ You are so kind good~~"

You are so kind!Nathan didn't know what to say.If he knew it would be like this, he would have thought about it more when he answered Roland's question just now.Fortunately, his answer just now was not too bad: "Okay, Ian, Roland...Since I have said just now that we want to take back the earth. Then, let's do this together."
