Takutori Club, main hall.

The ballroom is illuminated by antique lamps hanging from the walls and ceilings, and beautiful music flows gracefully through the hall like water, and pairs of gentlemen in suits and ladies in dresses are dancing, immersed in this entertainment venue far from the smoke of war.

If the club hadn't been chartered outright, and professional dancers had been dressed as dancing guests, Kyle's appearance in a tuxedo would have caused a stir in the crowd.

Kyle, the youngest major officer in the United States, is a hero of American power and conquest. Since the uprooting of the Hydra organization, it has once again become a legend on the streets of Europe and the United States.

Although it is too exaggerated to describe it as a 'legend', it was able to single-handedly influence and turn the pattern of the entire European theater of war, and hurt the military strength of Germany in World War II. In the eyes of American GIs and some fanatical fans, Kyle is a veritable legendary hero, whose fame and prestige are far greater than those of generals and officers.

It's okay here in Europe right now. In the United States today, six out of ten screening films must be Kyle's exclusive to all recruitment propaganda films in the United States, and the other four are war documentary clips in which Kyle and Captain Steve fight side by side.

One can imagine how strong Kyle's aura as a war hero is now.

——

The hope dimmed, but it lit again, and the confident young man still came back with a promise.

Carter, who was standing in the middle of the ballroom, looked at Kyle who came out of the separated crowd of singers and dancers, and was speechless for a while.

Kyle was also silent, not knowing what to say, and finally took a deep breath and said, "Sorry, I didn't bring Steve back." ”

As soon as these words came out, the originally relaxed and pleasant atmosphere suddenly solidified and heavy.

Carter took a few steps forward, shook his head, and said, "You can't be blamed for this, and we can't predict what will happen on the plane." ”

"No, what I could have expected a little bit was that I didn't take Schmidt too seriously, I thought it was ......" Before Kyle could finish speaking, Carter shook his head at him again and said slowly, "That's enough, that's over." ”

After speaking, Carter stretched out his palm slightly forward, there was a hint of anticipation hidden in the depths of his beautiful eyes, and his red lips opened lightly, "Didn't Steve ask you to come for him and invite me to dance?" It's been two weeks since you came. ”

"It's a bit far at sea, it's late." Kyle casually made an excuse, hesitated, and reached out like a gentleman like Howard and took Carter's soft palm.

"You can't jump, I can teach you, just don't step on my shoes." Carter opened his mouth as he took Kyle and danced slowly to the tune of the hall.

"Not really." Kyle laughed dumbly, there are really not many common skills in the world that he can't say; Even if there is, just read the gacha directly.

In particular, the [Gala Dance] green ability card was drawn from Carter's woman, but so far there has been no chance of using it to come in handy.

Just as the gentle tune in the hall stopped, another hurried and passionate song sounded.

Kyle took the initiative with direct steps, and began to guide with exquisite dancing skills no less than professional skills, and under the subtle control of power, he hugged Carter's waist with one hand, and turned her to dance with a slight levitation.

Carter quickly kept up, her red skirt swirling and fluttering.

A hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, she really didn't expect Kyle to be so handy at this dance in addition to fighting and killing on the battlefield.

Kyle held Carter in one hand and the slender waist of the other in the other, dancing to the increasingly passionate tune.

With his sturdy and perfect figure, the tuxedo on his body naturally blew out the thin gentleman in the city greenhouse, a little less ruthless and murderous in the black combat suit, and a little more gentle and handsome.

Paired with tonight's cool and beautiful Carter, the appearance itself is pleasing to the eye, plus the dance moves of the two are energetic and neat, with tacit understanding, difficult movements are easily completed, and each other's hand movements and steps are aligned with the tune of the song itself.

Since then, Kyle and Carter have been occupying the very center of the ballroom, making the eyes of the people around them fall on them with amazement and admiration.

At the end of the song, Kyle slowly grabbed Carter's slender waist and held her body to a halt, while Carter pressed his palms slightly against his broad chest.

As if amazed by the high integrity of the dance, the people in the ballroom applauded.

"That's the end of it." Kyle shrugged and withdrew his hands.

Carter's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of loss, and he could only slowly put down his palm, and said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to dance." ”

"Before I left the army, I learned from my parents at home." Kyle replied casually, bluntly, "Is there anything else you want to do, it's just free tonight." ”

"Are you going to go to the front again tomorrow? By the way, you really haven't been back to the base for half a month to report. Carter pondered for a moment, then plucked up the courage to say, "Well, let's go to the bar." ”

"Drink, you and me?" Kyle looked at Carter in surprise, isn't this just a common brother-in-arms who drink alcohol, what kind of wine do men and women drink?

He thought for a moment and said with a slightly hesitant face, "You don't really like me like what Steve said, right?" ”

Carter was stunned, hiding Kyle's thoughtful gaze and waving his hand, "How is this possible, you think too much." ”

"That's good." Kyle Matsu let out a sigh of relief and said, "I'll just say, that guy Steve lied to me in the end." Even if he doesn't, I'll take care of you. ”

"I don't need you to take care of me." Carter glanced at him and said in a much colder tone, "Do you want to drink or not?" ”

Kyle nodded, "Drink." It's rare to relax at the end, why not drink. ”

"Just don't get drunk, I can't help someone as big as you." Carter snorted.

"Just kidding, how is that possible." Kyle shook his head boredly, but the worry wasn't there.

The metabolism of his super soldier's physique is four times that of a human being, so can he pour just a little wine?

The next morning.

The window breeze blows the white curtains, and the golden sunlight pours into the room.

Kyle was waking up from bed, his head still a little dizzy, with the slight after-effects of last night's drunkenness.

Really drunk.

Kyle was lying on the covers in a 'big' shape and smiled bitterly, so embarrassed that he thought he wouldn't get drunk, so he tasted different drinks again and again, so that he realized that by the time he was drunk, it was too late.

However, this is also because he is in the rest stage, and it doesn't matter if he gets drunk once to relieve the stress of wartime, and if he is in the battle or mission period, he will not touch even a sip of wine.

"Anyway, it was really a trouble for Carter last night."

Kyle ripped open the sheets and looked at the missing tuxedo uniform and replaced it with the simple pajamas provided by the club.

He vaguely remembered that Carter and a few waiters had spent a lot of effort to help him into the room last night, and Carter seemed to have helped him change his clothes.

Then, there was no later.
