24. Meet
CHAPTER XXIV
*
Seventy years is a long time, so long that the young and beautiful Peggy Carter is gray-haired and wrinkled, and has to rely on various drugs to barely survive, like an old tree waiting to die in the wind, lying on the bed to survive.
"I knew you weren't dead."
She hated Isbelle, and hated her so hard to live just to see her again.
"Why do you say I killed Steve?"
Isbelli looked at Peggy Carter blankly, not understanding where the hatred on her face came from.
"Look, you deceived everyone with this ignorant and innocent appearance back then." Carter glared at Isbelli, she wanted to control her feelings and settle the matter calmly, but as soon as she saw her face, she thought of the man she loved deep in her heart, if it weren't for her, Steve wouldn't have died.
"I don't understand what you're talking about." Isbelli's memories of what had happened seventy years ago were vague, but she could see Carter's hostility, "You seem to hate me? ”
Hearing this, Carter took a few deep breaths to calm down her excitement, she hoarse and sneered: "I admit that seventy years ago I was indeed a little dissatisfied, because Steve was so good to you that everyone couldn't stand it. Seventy years have passed, and I don't hate you anymore......" With that, she grabbed Isbelli's hand suddenly, her dry fingers gripping her slender wrist hard, her long nails digging into her delicate skin, "I don't hate you, I'm just thinking, why aren't you dead, why aren't you dead?" You've killed so many people and killed Steve, why hasn't God sent you to hell yet? ”
In the battle with the Red Skull, Captain America could have returned unharmed, but it was Isbelli's betrayal that left him seriously injured and never able to appear in front of her again. Only God knows how much the flame of hatred burned in her heart when Carter learned that 084, who killed Steve during World War II, was still alive, and she suffered every minute.
And Isbelle, Carter's words made her inexplicable, and she couldn't understand what she meant and what she was talking about. She vaguely remembered that Steve Rogers chose to sacrifice himself to save everyone in order to stop the plot of a big bad guy seventy years ago, he knocked her out and left her alone in this world, and she fell into a deep sleep due to her grief, and only woke up all these years.
"Steve...... It was he who left me and left, it was he who abandoned me. ”
How could she possibly hurt him? In those years, in order to save him, she blocked many bullets and artillery fire, and she couldn't count them, and in the end, she even wanted to die with him.
"I think I should care about Steve, there's no way I could hurt him."
Memories don't lie, she trusts her memories. This request to see Peggy Carter was originally to figure out Guò's help to sort through the messy memories, figure out who she is, where she comes from, and how she met Steve Rogers and others.
"You know who I am, don't you? Do you know where I came from, my parents......"
"You're a monster! Where did you come from, parents! Carter interrupted her with a shriek, his heart beating with rage. She was a little out of breath, but the hatred gave her infinite strength, and she didn't fall, and sat up with her weak body, closing in on Isbelli, glaring at her viciously. "Don't worry, you escaped seventy years ago, and now you won't. The S.H.I.E.L.D. people will dispose of you for me, you ...... The monster that jumped out of the cosmic Rubik's Cube, the devil who bewitched people's hearts! ”
"Cosmic Rubik's Cube?"
Outside the door, Corson and Isbelle spoke at the same time, both of them shocked.
Carter let go of the hand holding Isbelli, lay back on the bed like a loss of strength, and took a moment before continuing: "It's a pity that S.H.I.E.L.D. hadn't been established at that time, otherwise how could you let a monster like you emerge from the Cosmic Cube get along with everyone day and night." ”
"I'm not a monster."
Isbelli lowered her head and argued weakly, she was a little uncomfortable, and Carter hurt her hand.
"Seventy years have passed, and your appearance has not changed in the slightest, no matter how severe the injury is, you will not die, isn't this a monster?" Carter said mockingly, "Don't try to quibble, you're not a normal human, you're a monster, a monster that can't die." ”
"yes, you really can't kill me."
Isbelli, who lowered her head, suddenly said this, and then slowly raised her head, and there was a strange red in her dark blue eyes.
Carter didn't look at her face, he was looking at the metal rings on her limbs, "It's not what it used to be, S.H.I.E.L.D. is here to deal with monsters like you." As the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., I will issue the highest order, even if I use the power of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, to kill you, a monster, so that you will not harm the earth again. ”
It turns out that the Cosmic Cube is in S.H.I.E.L.D.......
Scold.
Isbelle smiled willy, tilted her head to look at Peggy Carter, and raised her hand that had turned black and purple at some point. "You want me dead?" She smiled like a ghost, but the tone of her voice was weak and helpless, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I forgot what happened seventy years ago, I don't remember what you said, I can only say that I will never hurt Captain America." He is a hero of the people, my idol, I care about him very much, I can't hurt him, you must have some misunderstanding. ”
“……”
Peggy Carter looked at her angrily, her teeth clenched, and she couldn't say a word. She had become accustomed to her pitiful tricks, which she had seen many times seventy years ago. The hateful thing is that she acted so well that she deceived everyone, even Steve didn't believe that she was a demon, and thought she was a simple and ignorant angel.
"Steve may not be dead, I'll try to find him, please rest well, thank you for your willingness to see me today."
With that, Isbelle got up and walked out of the room, where she was greeted by Phil Cowson, who was staying outside.
"Mr. Cowson, I'm in a much better mood after meeting Agent Carter." She looked at him gratefully, with a shallow curvature at the corner of her mouth, and the whole person looked swept away from the previous lifelessness, and had more vitality and vitality.
"Are you really feeling better?" Corson looked at Isbelli's face suspiciously, even more ugly than before.
"Of course." Isbelle smiled sweetly, "I think I can eat a big plate of pizza, you told me there is a pizzeria that is delicious, can you take me there?" ”
"Bailey, you're getting a nosebleed?"
Corson frowned, and was about to wipe her off with a piece of paper, but the next second her eyes and ears began to bleed, and then her body convulsed a few times and fell, and her mouth kept vomiting blood.
"Bailey!!
