In the basement of a training base for the US military.

Howard, Fury, and Carter, the three of them were talking on a world map with solemn faces.

"The departure point is the Hydra base under the Alps, and the location destination for autonomous driving is New York. According to the normal flight speed of the runaway transport fighter and the time when the communication signal is cut off and disappears, it can be calculated that there is a high probability that the runaway fighter will eventually fall into this sea area. ”

Howard, dressed in a suit and tie, stood in front of a map of the world and drew a circle in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean with a black water-based pen, enclosing the inner area that should be investigated.

"But the center of the sea area where the runaway fighter is most likely to fall has dived and investigated for the first time, and no trace has been found. Therefore, it is inevitable to consider whether the runaway fighter jet deviated from the trajectory of the autopilot at that time, as well as the distribution of ocean currents and sea glaciers at that time. ”

At this point, Howard's expression was heavy, and he drew a larger circle in addition to the original circle to encompass the map of the Atlantic Ocean.

Fury, who was seated below, shook his head and sighed, "If you have to use a submarine to dive to the bottom of the sea every ten meters to carefully investigate the sea area enclosed by this area, you won't be able to find the wreckage of the fighter plane even if you use it for ten years." ”

"Can't give up!" Carter's face was cold, and he said in a firm tone: "Those two people won't die so easily." They said yes, they'll be back. ”

"Of course. Not only the military's submarines, but also our Stark Industries will also invest money and send professional divers to the sea to find them, and they will not give up until they are found. ”

Howard nodded in agreement, was silent for a moment, and still expressed the concerns in his heart, "What I'm afraid of is that the opportunity to lose control of the war will meet the ice floes of the sea mountain." It is now the time of the Atlantic winter, and if the downed fighter plane freezes and sinks to the bottom of the sea, it will be a hundred years of searching, and not even the slightest part of the fighter will be found. ”

As soon as these words came out, Fury and Carter in the basement fell silent.

In fact, after the runaway fighter plane lost communication from the sea, although the U.S. military also sent fighters and submarines to try their best to find it, they had already tacitly acquiesced in the unfortunate death of Steve and Kyle, and even if they were found, most of them were only corpses.

However, even if it is confirmed that Steve and Kyle are dead, the news will be suppressed by the military, after all, the death of a hero who symbolizes the country is too much to bear in wartime.

At that moment, an informing soldier came down the stairs of the passage and said to Carter, "Agent Carter, someone from outside the base brought something in, saying it was for you." ”

"Huh?" Carter was puzzled, but he also took the box in the soldier's hand and subconsciously asked, "Who is that person?" ”

"A little girl, who said she was a friend of Agent Carter, ran away without the base guards checking out. The box passed the instrument test and confirmed that it was safe before we sent it in. ”

"That's hard work for you." Kart nodded, and after informing the soldiers to leave, he placed the box on the conference table.

The carton was not big or small, it was sealed with adhesive tape, and there was a small paragraph of English on it: 'To Carter'.

Carter's beautiful eyes looked at the English handwriting, and he was stunned for a moment.

Howard also felt that the atmosphere of the meeting during this time was too heavy, and couldn't help but joke: "This can't be sent by some gentleman who admires you, right?" ”

"Maybe it's an intelligence message, I'll help you unpack it." Fury raised his hand to help, and after Carter gave permission, he quickly took the scissors and cut and dismantled the sealed tape.

The box was quickly opened by his tough guy, revealing its contents in the dim light, a freshly folded red evening gown with a card with a rose on the front.

"Dress? Rose cards? Fury was disappointed, not interested in such women's items, and retreated to his seat.

Howard shrugged, "Looks like I'm right. Carter beauty, do you need a messenger to protect the flowers? ”

Carter didn't speak, but walked forward and picked up the rose card from the box, and when he flipped it over, the back of the card was still written in English: 'I hereby solemnly invite Miss Carter.' On Friday, tomorrow at 8 p.m., join the Bird Club for a singing and dancing party. ’

"It's him, he's back." Carter whispered.

"Coming back?" Howard and Fury were both slightly stunned, looked at each other, and then looked at her urgently, "Who did you say came back!?" ”

As the day passed, Friday night arrived as scheduled.

In the nearby big city, the Tuoniao Club is located in the center of the busiest street, with the carpet at the main entrance spread inward, and the lighting maintains a rich atmosphere.

'Didi! ’

An extended version of the luxury car was parked steadily in front of the main entrance of the club, Howard, as the driver, got out of the car first, the gentleman helped open the co-pilot's door, and the slender feet inside stepped out of the high heels, and then Carter, dressed in a luxurious bandeau evening dress, stepped out of the car.

Her beautiful, cold face was carefully groomed to look outstanding, and her blonde hair was combed up, revealing her delicate collarbones. Further down, the bandeau evening dress cleverly shows off its perfect shoulder and back and body lines, sexy and elegant coexist, and the red tone of the evening dress and the fair skin are contrasted, which makes it difficult to take off the eyes.

"Carter, you must be the brightest person at the party tonight." Howard sighed with emotion, waved his hand and urged, "Hurry in, don't make people wait for a long time." ”

With that, Howard sat back in the driver's seat of the car, started the extended version of the car and drove away, leaving Carter alone in front of the door.

Carter took a deep breath, pressed his palms lightly on his chest, and walked nervously into the club.

Through the main entrance guarded by a properly dressed waiter, we walked all the way into the hallway, but it was not as lively as usual - on the contrary, except for the faint light in the hallway to keep it visible, the main hall of the club's cabaret was pitch black.

There was no music, no lights, no other guests, not even the waiters at the club.

"This ......" Carter looked at the silent and dark hall in front of him, and was about to call out, when the lights around him and overhead suddenly lit up.

'Wow-'

The originally dark main hall was instantly brightly visible, and then under the soft music played by various instruments, as if rehearsed countless times, a pair of gentlemen and ladies held hands and poured into the main hall from all directions, dancing gracefully to the singing.

"Is that you?" Carter couldn't help but ask, looking around at the people dancing to the tune, as if he wanted to find some familiar figure among them.

"It's not." A familiar deep voice rang out from the musician playing the tune, and Carter looked for it, only to see a handsome young man in a black tuxedo standing up from his piano seat.

"It's me. I'm disappointed. Kyle said as he spread his hands and looked at Carter in the center of the main hall.

"yes, even if you came on behalf of someone, you're too late." Carter smiled, tears of excitement in his beautiful eyes.
