Professor X's plan was executed.
To ensure success, Bruce Wayne chose to stay by Lee Winter's side at all times β even if for a split second, her abilities would be increased to 100 percent.
When the glass house was opened, Magneto controlled the reagent to stab her neck, just as the monitor exploded in red! Professor X pressed his temples and calmly poured the hint in him in an instant!
Iron Man watched nervously through the last line of defense, knowing that if he failed, he would face the possibility of executing Winter Lee with his own hands to avoid a worse outcome.
- Probably this time, Lady Luck was on their side.
It was only for a moment.
The space around Lee Win was distorted from a momentary riot to calm. She quietly held Bruce Wayne's hand, her whole body trembling with nervousness.
It wasn't until she heard Bruce Wayne's voice again that she tentatively opened her eyes.
Bruce Wayne is still here, intact.
- except that his right sleeve was torn apart by a momentary spatial distortion.
- Everything is fine.
Leonte almost cried again, she never knew she was such a cryer.
Fortunately, she hurriedly turned her back and stopped her tears, and it took a long time to slow down the echo.
She heard Tony Stark's voice coming over the radio, with a full smile and disguised regret.
"I'm sorry Miss Winter Lee, but you've only been an Omega-level mutant for only seventy-eight hours, and from now on, you can only be an ordinary mutant with some special abilities."
"βpermanently." Looking at the screen, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he sighed at the most, "It's a pity." β
Leonte saw Tony Stark standing at the outermost distance from afar, and the expression that was about to cry involuntarily softened, and she finally laughed, with undried tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, but the smile was so bright that Iron Man felt that his eyes were astringent.
This little girl's smile and crying expression was not cute at all, and it looked strange, but Tony Stark still couldn't help but say, "It's ugly, Jarvis, save a picture." β
Jarvis said to Tony, "Sir, are you talking about yourself?" β
Tony Stark: "...... I look so bored? β
Jarvis was serious: "But you never keep a picture of yourself that you think is ugly." I don't know if it's Tony's delusion, but he seems to feel that Jarvis, who is always calm, also has a hint of ridicule in his voice, "Just kidding you, I saved it." β
The corners of Tony's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but ask, "Who taught you this?" β
"Brother and sister Maximov, I think it's funny, what do you think, Sir?"
Iron Man didn't answer, he just took one last look at Li Winter, opened the last door, took off the mask of the mecha, and said lazily: "Go back and rest, Jarvis, is the bath water at home ready?" β
"Wait a minute, Sir." After about three seconds, Jarvis affirmed, "38.2Β°C, ready to go." β
Iron Man put on his mask again and sat down in the take-off position: "Then get ready to go home." β
When he came out of the glass house, Li Winter still felt a little fluttery under his feet.
She grabbed Bruce Wayne's cuffs and looked at the open glass door with some hesitation, so that she looked up at the other with uncertain eyes: "...... Can you really get out? β
Bruce looked down to see her nervous and uneasy eyes, and he paused to affirm her, "Yes, trust me." β
Li Winter breathed a sigh of relief, she nodded, and said seriously: "Well, I have always trusted you. β
Bruce Wayne was slightly stunned, and Lee Winter had loosened his cuffs and stepped out cautiously.
There is not much difference between the air and the environment inside and outside, but Li Wintert feels that the two are completely different. Everything outside the house is peaceful and looks so nice.
She took a deep breath before looking at Professor X, Charles Xavier opened his hand to her, Li Winter's nose was sore, he rubbed his face and walked towards the elder, half-crouched down, and let him give him a hug full of isolation and hope.
"I'm sorry kid for making you suffer so much." He patted Lee Winter on the back, but there was a smile in his eyes, "But it doesn't seem to be all bad." β
Lee Winter didn't quite understand Professor X's last words, but she was more concerned about other issues at the moment.
Li Wintert asked a little nervously, "Professor, what am I capable ofβ"
"I can't promise you everything, you know the world is always full of surprises." Charles Xavier always seemed to be able to easily give others the strength to settle down, and he smiled, "But I can assure you that no matter what accident happens, I will be there for you at the first moment." β
After a pause, he glanced at Bruce Wayne, who was standing beside Lee, and smiled deeply: "Of course, just like this time." β
"I'm sure your friends will always be by your side."
"You're never alone."
"βFearless."
There's just so much going on this week.
When Lee Winter stood on the terrace on the top floor of the Avengers again, feeling the breeze on her cheeks, she almost thought that a long time had actually passed.
Peter Parker stood beside her, quietly watching the sunset.
He looked like he had something to say, but eventually gave up anyway.
Li Winter was a little curious: "What's wrong?" β
"That's right." "I still remember when I first went to school in Gotham, you told me that when I came back, I would have something to say to me. β
"It's just that then we all seem to forget, what did you want to say to me at that time?"
Peter Parker stood at the edge of the terrace, looking at the Empire State Building in the distance, his light brown eyes still showing the girl who had pressed her hair and turned to him and smiled like a spring mountain.
She's there at the moment.
Still standing beside him, tilting his head slightly, waiting seriously and patiently for his answer.
Peter Parker on the Empire State Building blushed and said, "Winter, I like you." "I've been hiding for a long time, and I can't say it.
However, at this moment, Peter Parker had a chance to speak again, but he felt that it was unnecessary.
Peter Parker blinked, he smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to say that I'm going to miss you." β
"Well, is this it?" Li Winter blinked, she didn't quite understand why she had to wait until she came back to say "I miss you", but it had been a long time, and he probably couldn't remember asking Peter himself.
Peter Parker said, "What about Mr. Wayne?" β
"Downstairs." Lee Winter looked a little embarrassed, "Well, Mr. Wayne said it would be best to see Mr. Barnes if I had time, and he was worried about me. β
She sighed, "This time the matter is too big, because the initial news leaked from the Bat Cave, and even Mr. Pennyworth blames himself a little. β
Peter Parker said, "Do you need me to send you?" β
Lee Winter said, "No, I'll just go to Gotham with Mr. Wayne." By the way, isn't school going to start in two days? It's time for you to consider which university to apply to, right? Have you thought about it? β
"New York University." Peter Parker's smile was a little shy, "The summer camp grades are good, I think I should be able to pass the exam." β
Li Wente was a little surprised when she heard this, and she said a little excitedly: "You will be my junior brother after that year?" β
Peter Parker was serious: "You can't think I'm in trouble then. β
Hearing that she had the opportunity to be Spider-Man's senior sister, Li Winter only felt an inexplicable pride in her chest, and she was very sure: "Of course, but I won't go to class for you when you skip class." β
Peter Parker couldn't help but retort: "This is something that only Pietro does, right?" β
"But he's not my junior, is he?"
Lee Winter was serious.
Wanda glanced at Petro and couldn't help but complain: "It's useless." β
Petro grimaced at his sister and shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can't help it, I have to like her." β
Wanda couldn't help but glance at Lee Winter, who was chatting with Peter Parker on the terrace, and said with a frown: "I don't like Bruce Wayne, and Parker is better than him." β
"I think so too." Quicksilver agreed, but after a pause, he added, "But he's reliable, isn't he?" β
Petro put his hands in his pants pockets, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight smile: "Winter is by his side, he really doesn't have to worry about anything." β
On the terrace, Leewin's smile was as gentle and bright as when she first met everyone.
It's like a warm winter sun.
Bruce Wayne waited outside the Avengers Building, and when Lee Winter hurried in, his gaze paused for a moment before he remembered to open the car door for her.
Li Wintert thanked him as usual and got into the passenger seat.
But when Bruce Wayne fastened his seat belt and was about to start the car, the little girl who was sitting in the passenger seat, as usual, suddenly turned her head, stared into his eyes, and suddenly spoke.
Her voice tightened, and her fingers clenched involuntarily in front of her knees. But she still looked Bruce Wayne in the eye, as if she had given it enough thought before deciding to make the statement.
"Mr. Wayne, I have thought of an answer to what you said to me earlier. β
Bruce Wayne's hand shook and he almost didn't press the start button.
He pretended to be calm and said "hmm", but he was the first to turn his eyes and look at his steering wheel, so that he could ask smoothly: "Then your answer isββ? β
"Can I call you Mr. Bruce from now on?" Lee Winter's nervous palms were sweating, "I think Bruce sounds a little better than Wayne." β
She continued, "...... What do you think? β
Lee Winter waited for a long time for Batman's answer, and just when she thought that her answer was too subtle for the other party to understand, Bruce Wayne suddenly called her name.
Bruce Wayne said, "Winter." β
Lee Winter: "Huh? As soon as his eyelashes were raised, his eyes widened with sudden start.
There was a very soft touch on her lips, gentle and warmβlike the heart that this person had been holding on to in the endless darkness of the night.
The corners of her mouth couldn't help but raise slightly, and her eyelashes closed slightly.
Bruce Wayne raised his head slightly, ending this somewhat impulsive kiss. He looked calm, but the embarrassment in his eyes was about to be concretized, and Li Went smiled slightly.
"Ah Fu should have waited for a long time, let's go home first."
Li Wintert answered, and did not find anything wrong.
Bruce Wayne also thought it was amazing, and if he had rewind the clock to before the attack on New York, he would probably never have imagined that one day he would be able to easily say the word "home" to others.
It's easy to say, "Let's go home first." β
Li Wintert crossed his fingers and thought seriously: "I haven't had a chance to try the new secret recipe that Mr. Ah Fu taught me last time, and I don't know if he would like to borrow my kitchen to try it." β
Bruce Wayne said: "He has no reason to object. β
"Well, is that so?" "That's great, I really like to make some cookies with Mr. Afu." β
"I'm done this time, why don't you taste some too?"
There are some eye-catching Ferraris galloping down the road.
Superman who was passing by stopped his pace, glanced at it slightly, and when he saw the person in the passenger seat clearly, he could no longer arouse any surprise, but had a look of "it was so".
Superman holds the pizza in his hand and sped off towards the chaotic area.
Unlike Batman, who took a month-long love vacation, Louis is still waiting for his takeout.
The days in New York are still busy, and the nights in Gotham are cold in the moonlight.
Nothing seems to have changed, but everything seems to have changed again.
Alfred stood in front of the door and said to Lee Winter with a smile, "Welcome back, Miss Winter." β
"Good evening, Mr. Alfred! Excuse me. β
- A new story has begun.
