[Zhongyingmei] Who is my father?

you……"

Zero frowned, although he didn't think that he would run into the self that should exist in this time at this time, and he was prepared for it, but when it really happened suddenly, he found it difficult to deal with it. So keep a good attitude.

The past self hated him very much, even if he didn't listen to the dissatisfaction and hostility in his tone that was almost overflowing, Zero knew it very well.

Because, he also hated the other party from the bottom of his heart.

"I never knew my accent was so annoying."

With the same sneer at the corner of his mouth, Zero turned sideways, let the other person into the cabin, and refused to share a name with this person in his heart, even if it was just like a child's tantrum.

"To each other, I only now know that I will be such a useless softie in the future."

In Zero's sharp sarcasm, Joyce's face was full of disdain at the moment, and he looked at Zero with hatred and vigilance, but most of all, there was still a surge of anger that almost burned his pupils into blood red. .

"You lost him once, and you want to lose him a second time?" He moved his right arm, and it seemed that he might fight with the other party at any time: "Throw him down alone, do you really think he is arranging Well, won’t you die before everything disappears?”

"I didn't..." Zero frowned unconsciously.

"You didn't leave him alone because it was a plan you both agreed on, and you want to excuse yourself like that, don't you?"

He interrupted Zero's words unceremoniously. Compared with Joyce, he could guess what the other party was thinking. His face was covered with invisible ice. Grabbing a Colt, he pointed the gun at Zero's gloomy face without hesitation.

"It will put him in danger, whether it is Joyce's initiative or not, it proves that you can't protect him at all." He said so coldly, every word stabbed in Zero's heart like a knife: "If you have With a little skill, those people won't make you so troublesome."

They are the past and future selves, the same person at different times, and the dialogue between the two is like the most secret and true monologue in the heart. Zero is very clear that every word that comes out of the other party's mouth is what he has also thought about and questioned himself, why can't he be stronger, able to protect Joyce tightly, and let all the dangers in the world Never be able to touch the hem of his clothes, never have to step into the abyss for yourself that will be smashed to pieces if you don't pay attention.

And from the beginning to the end, he has always hated himself like this.

He obviously doesn't have the ability to turn the world upside down, but he can't help but let the most precious part of himself be born in the cruelest soil.

"So, are you going to kill me?"

Looking directly at the opponent's muzzle, the gunman did not tremble, obviously knowing what he was doing. Zero lowered his eyes, and the darkness in his eyes was also brewing, like the sky before a storm, and there will be terrible thunder piercing the sky at any time: "Obviously you can't protect him, let him fall into the quagmire for you, lost Have your own rights. What qualifications do you have to kill me?"

This is his deepest questioning of his past.However, to Zero's surprise, the man actually laughed, and the killing intent lingering around him did not slow down a bit.

"Don't get me wrong, who do you think lost him among us?" It was clearly the same face as Joyce, but the momentum was completely opposite.He opened the insurance, looking crazy and resentful.The wind blowing in from outside the cabin swept in, raising the corners of their clothes, as if to engrave this confession of themselves on the blue sky.

"I will never be like you." He said so firmly and resolutely, as if this could shatter the future brought back in advance by the Eye of Agamotto: "At least, I will not send bullets into his body with my own hands." in the body. But you've already done it."

Even if it was just an accidental injury.

Because Zero would never hurt Joyce, that's the bottom line of their existence.

"Die."

boom--

His ruthless sentence arrived at the same time as the sound of pulling the trigger. Zero closed his eyes reflexively, but he didn't wait for death to come as the other party said.

"You're lucky." Holding the empty magazine, Colt put down the gun a little unhappily.At this point in time, Zero didn't have any unexpected expressions on his face. For a moment, he didn't know whether it was an accident or he was really playing tricks on the other side consciously.

But in the future, he knew that at that moment, this person was indeed intent on killing.

"Why, you look regretful that there is no bullet piercing a hole in your head?" The man shrugged, put away all the sneer and disdain on his face, and looked at Zero with an unprecedented serious expression: "There will be no next time, future Me. You must remember that there is only one reason why I have not killed you until now."

"Isn't it because you are still sharing the same body with Joyce, so I can't do anything to you?"

Zero snorted coldly, and the cold light of a sharp blade flashed away from his sleeve.

"If this can make you feel better, just deceive yourself like this." Joyce's protagonist glanced at him and put the gun back: "Just remind you, watch Joyce, don't let him Do something dangerous...he can't go on like this anymore."

"……What's the meaning?"

Zero has a bad feeling.But the man didn't continue talking, but took a step back suddenly, as if he was enduring some extreme pain, his brows were tightly frowned, and the mark-like green marks at the corners of his eyes gradually faded, his skin color gradually returned to normal from blue and white, and once again It brought back the Joyce-like atmosphere familiar to Zero.

In the next second, he knelt heavily on the ground.Dazzling blood flowed from between his fingers covering his mouth.Almost in the blink of an eye, dots of scarlet were left on the ground of the cabin.

"Cough cough..."

He felt as if a knife had been stabbed in his chest, and Joyce's vision was blurred, and he couldn't focus his sight at all due to the pain.

"Joe?!"

Impossible not to recognize this harbinger of genetic collapse, Zero threw himself in front of Joyce in a panic, groping frantically on him: "Where's your stabilizer?!"

"..."

Joyce, whose mouth was full of blood, couldn't speak even if he wanted to answer, and just covered the dark pocket in his waist weakly.And Zero didn't care much at this time, and directly tore off the opponent's belt, turned out the gene stabilizer, and quickly shot it into Joyce's body.

Although Hydra is undoubtedly a jerk, it has to be admitted that their black technology does have a few brushes.As a derivative product of 'Project Z', even if the gene stabilizer could not completely solve Joyce's problem, it could still relieve his symptoms.This is something that has been verified in the previous two genetic collapse crises.

Zero had no doubts that Joyce would be fine soon after the injection.

however--

"Cough cough cough..."

The symptoms of vomiting blood did not stop, but intensified.Joyce could feel the potion flow from the injection site along the blood flow through the whole body, as if a drop of water was about to extinguish the fire that spread throughout the wilderness. Although it cannot be said that it has no effect, it is indeed a drop in the bucket.

He should have thought of such a day.

The consequences of the genetic collapse were superficial, and he could no longer use the original standard to measure its impact on his body.

"Joe? Joe?!"

Seeing that the stabilizer didn't have the desired effect, Joyce was still weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Zero's eyes almost turned completely scarlet.And before he was driven mad, Joyce had touched another tube of stabilizer again and plunged into his body, as if desperate, hoping that the double dose would be somewhat useful.

Zero stared nervously at him.

And even though he complained that he was unlucky enough today, at this moment, Lady Luck did stand with him.Feeling that the colic in his chest that could almost kill him began to slowly ease, Joyce breathed a sigh of relief, curled up in Zero's arms with cold sweat on his forehead, and waited for the last bit of pain to fade from his body.

However, his body functions like a broken hourglass. Even if the hole is blocked this time, the sand has already flowed away.

If he can't find a way, he will be even weaker in the future than he is now.

"...Did it scare you?"

After resting for a while, Joyce felt that most of his recovery had been recovered. Joyce sighed silently and stood up straight from Zero's arms, but instead of looking at him, he turned to the joystick in the cab.

Zero tightened his grip on his shoulder.

"Joe." He gritted his teeth and tried to suppress the slight tremor in his voice: "Are you..."

Are you reaching your limit? Zero wanted to ask him that, but was terribly afraid of the possible answer.However, before he finished speaking, the helicopter they were in suddenly shook violently, as if hit by something, and almost threw the two of them out of the hatch together.

what happened? !

Quickly clasping the edge of the cabin, Joyce fixed himself and Zero in the cabin and looked up into the air.

Behind them to the left, another helicopter was quickly approaching them, and the killer crouched in the cabin door was carrying an RPG rocket launcher, ready to fire a second rocket launcher at them.

"Hydra is coming after me."

It only takes a quick scan to understand what's going on. Zero checked the damage and found that the tail of their aircraft had been hit and could no longer maintain the current height. It would not be long before they crashed in the streets of New York, and were killed by several times their own killers again. surrounded by them.

And in front of them, there is only one way for them to retreat.

"pass it to me."

Looking at each other, they both saw the same thought in each other's eyes. Zero got up first, walked into the cab, switched to manual mode, and gripped the joystick tightly.

Joyce, on the other hand, quickly took out the remaining bullets on his body, and began to think of ways to prevent Hydra agents from attacking them again.

The helicopter fell very fast.

The speed at which the chasing troops assembled far exceeded their expectations.

However, I will always dare to jump into the flames for that glimmer of life.Without needing anyone's reminder, Joyce lowered his face and shot the clip at the fuel tank of the Hydra helicopter, then immediately turned around and ran to the cab, grabbing the joystick with Zero.

And in front, almost at hand, is the Avengers Building, a glass wall that reflects sunlight.

It's now.

When the faint explosion sound mixed with the strong wind blowing past, they pushed the joystick forward together, and with a posture of going nowhere, they slammed into the outer wall of the building.
