CHAPTER XXXI

*

In the hallway, Isbelle froze in place, not daring to move for a long time, until she couldn't bear it anymore and slowly turned around, cautiously looking up ahead.

The golden sunlight pierced through the glass and hit the aisle, as if a glittering carpet had been laid on the floor, and at the end of the carpet stood a man as bright as the sun.

"Steve......"

Steve Rogers, the first person she saw when she opened her eyes, the person who still held an important place even if she had incomplete memories, was in her heart.

She still remembers that when the war is over, he will go home with him, and there will be a small house with a small yard outside the house, and they can live together and live happily every day.

How beautiful is a home with a yard...... Isbelli even struggled with what flowers to plant in the yard, and at that time, Steve smiled and stroked her hair, saying that she could plant whatever she wanted, and that if one yard was not enough, he would buy her another large meadow.

It's a pity that there are no houses, no small yards, let alone any flowers.

In the decisive battle with the Red Skull, the two were forced to separate, she thought he was dead, and she lost all the ** that survived, so she committed suicide by jumping into the sea, but she didn't die, but just fell into a deep sleep and lost her memory.

After waking up, she kept dreaming, dreaming of him every time, from vague to clear appearance, blank to gradually remembering the past...... I thought it would take a while to remember everything, but now that Steve is alive and he's back, she doesn't have to look for any missing memories, she just asks him if she wants to know anything.

What a pleasure! I'm so glad he's still alive!

Isbelli didn't know how to express her excitement at the moment, her chest heaved violently, her smile bloomed brightly on her lips, and her dark blue eyes left only the man opposite, and nothing else could be squeezed in.

"Steve!"

She called out to him in a trembling voice, and her stiff hands and feet finally regained consciousness, and without hesitation she rushed towards him, and threw herself on top of him, as she had done a long time ago, and buried herself in his warm and muscular arms.

"Great, you're not dead, great, I thought I'd never see you again, I went to the sea to look for you, but I couldn't find it, the sea is so cold, I just want to die like that, and I'll see you when I die......"

The joy of seeing each other overwhelmed Isbelli, who didn't notice that Steve Rogers was grimacing, and didn't raise her hand to hug her back. She was so happy, so happy that she was incoherent, and she had a stomach full of things to say to him, and a whole lot of questions to ask him.

“……”

As for Steve, his feelings are extremely complicated, whether he wants to or not, his body still automatically and spontaneously recalls the feeling when he once hugged Bailey. She was so petite and delicate, and always had a refreshing fragrance on her body, that he sometimes wanted to hug her when he was tired, because holding her would make him relax. For this, Bucky also laughed at him, saying that he was already a super soldier, but he still liked beautiful and soft dolls just like when he was a small man.

Bucky ...... He failed to grab his hand, causing him to plunge into an unfathomable canyon of ice and snow, never to find his body.

Thinking of Bucky, Steve couldn't help but show a pained expression, and the next second, he grabbed Isbelli's shoulders and pushed her away, not much force, but enough to make the petite her stagger back.

"You're alive."

He spoke in a very cold tone.

"Steve?"

Isbelli looked at him puzzled.

"But Bucky is dead." Steve said in a deep voice, his sad expression replaced by anger, "There are still many people who died under the conspiracy of Hydra and you, why, why kill so many people?" Is it just for the cosmic Rubik's Cube? Did you approach me and go to great lengths to gain my trust just to create a catastrophe with the Cosmic Cube with the Red Skull? ”

"What are you talking about......"

Isbelle was confused and didn't understand what he was talking about.

“……”

Phil Cowson, who was silently watching, blinked his eyes and gained some information without much effort. Regarding Bailey during World War II, Peggy Carter really concealed something very important, and it seems that Director Fury has to talk to her personally. Besides, the captain, according to what he said, in the battle with the Red Skull back then, Bailey played the role of a spy, hibernating beside him, indirectly or directly killing many people, and finally jumped directly and became an enemy? Either way, this isn't a good place to have a deep conversation, so let's get Bailey back to S.H.I.E.L.D. first.

Thinking about it, Corson took advantage of Isbelli's attention to be attracted by Captain America, so he quietly moved to her side, intending to stun her with a special potion and take her away.

"The facts are in front of you, how long do you want to disguise them?"

On the other side, Captain America was still questioning angrily.

"Camouflage? Camouflage what? Did I do something wrong, you look like you're angry. ”

Looking at the angry Steve, Isbelli felt inexplicable, and the joy of the reunion was diluted by the confusion, and she looked at him in a daze, not understanding what he was talking about.

“……”

Steve moved his lips to say something more, but he saw Phil Corson walk up behind Isbelli with a metal pipe in his hand, about to stick it on her.

"Whoa!"

The sound of glass shattering sounded, and the hairpin on Isbelli's head fired a laser to cut the glass in the aisle, and then a humanoid person flew in, picked her up and flew away without saying a word.

"Bailey!"

Steve chased after the window and finally called her name. Although he didn't want to admit it, he was worried about her when he saw her being taken away by the eccentric machine.
