430, The Curse of Sleeping Beauty (Ask for subscription, ask for full subscription!!) )
Of course.
Fairy tales are one thing, reality is another thing, you can't believe in fairy tales, and at the same time, you can't believe in reality.
Barbara didn't know that, she just knew, "You mean, Rogers has been cursed by a witch, and if the curse needs to be lifted, the only way is to kill the witch?" ”
Baker pursed his lips and thought for a moment, "That's one way to do it." ”
Barbara looked at Baker with some suspicion: "Okay, is this a good curse?" ”
Baker said, "If it weren't for this curse, even if he had been injected with Super Soldier Serum, Rogers would have turned into a pile of meat." ”
All right.
This curse of the sleeping beauty is the real reason why Steve Rogers can still be resurrected after more than 70 years of ice, at least, in this version.
It's just that......
Baker thought for a moment and looked at Barbara: "Do you know the conditions for casting the curse of Sleeping Beauty?" ”
"Conditions?"
"Hmm."
Baker nodded, in a sense, the curse of the sleeping beauty can also be regarded as a spell that can make people live longer, and achieve the effect of immortality by cheating time.
Nature......
The more time-related spells are, the conditions for their casting must be present.
It's just the curse of Sleeping Beauty?
Baker glanced back at Ms. Peggy Carter, who seemed to have returned to the last century, with flaming red lips and blonde hair, and then couldn't help but hesitate.
The curse of Sleeping Beauty has one condition.
The caster must be deeply in love with the caster, and at the same time, the caster must be willing to accept the spell.
So......
Baker was hesitant to tell Peggy Carter, after all, in the public's own perception of Peggy Carter, Steve Rogers of the American team is great, and the emotional history is also very simple.
Team America has only one confidante, and that is Peggy Carter.
Now?
The brilliance of idols feels like they're shattered.
But.
It's my business.
Baker's heart moved, it was not him who was shattered, if he dared to do it, he had to dare to admit it, Baker has always pursued this sentence, a manly man, standing up to the sky.
So.
Baker said something about the Sleeping Beauty curse.
The next second.
The temperature of the treatment room dropped at a visible rate, and the source of the cold, Peggy Carter, the flaming red lips.
Barbara looked at the evil smile on the corner of Baker's mouth that arced up for less than a second, couldn't help but pinch Baker, and then said to Peggy Carter, "Ms. Carter, I think there may be other explanations for this matter?" ”
Peggy Carter was expressionless: "Other explanations? ”
Barbara nodded, her cerebellar spinning rapidly, "Maybe...... Could it be that at that time, Captain Rogers found a witch friend and asked her to cast a curse in order to be able to go to the appointment? ”
I'm really smart.
After Barbara said this, she silently praised her wit.
It's just that......
Peggy Carter chuckled, "Barbie, the spell of the Sleeping Beauty curse is cast on a condition that the caster must love the castee deeply. ”
“……”
Barbara opened her mouth, then couldn't help but look at Baker.
Baker's expression was faint, and he still said the same thing, which didn't matter to him: "I've already given you the answer, and there's nothing to do with me here, either wait a year for Rogers to wake up slowly, or find the witch and let her lift the curse." ”
said.
Baker looked up, boom, and the light of the teleportation came, and in three and a half seconds, the teleportation ended, and Baker had disappeared into the treatment room.
…… This guy.
Barbara looked at where Baker had disappeared, her eyebrows fluttered, and she left the mess to clean up, hey, hey, I'm pregnant.
Peggy Carter walked up to Steve Rogers, who looked like a sleeping beauty, was silent for a while, then turned to Barbara and said, "I thought I knew him well." ”
Barbara said, "Ms. Carter, your love affair with Captain Rogers is universally recognized. ”
"Is it still now?"
"Of course!"
Barbara nodded and said, "Captain Rogers wanted him to be on time for the appointment during the final call, yours, didn't he?" ”
Peggy Carter seemed to think of something, couldn't help laughing, and stroked the sleeping Steve Rogers: "This dance, you've been more than seventy years late." ”
said.
Peggy Carter took a deep breath, and then, turning around, her eyes were clear: "Authorization number, Aegis Zero-Zero-Zero, notify Sanfei, take out this information, I want to see it." ”
Barbara said, "Ms. Carter......"
"He's been over 70 years late, long enough, I'm not going to let him sleep for a year," Peggy Carter said. ”
I'd like to see if it's that damn Bichi robbing a man with his mother.
Barbara felt the vinegar on Peggy Carter, opened her mouth, and finally nodded.
In the afternoon.
Barbara returns home.
Baker also just completed the preliminary round of an online esports game, and he and Kate Beckett successfully led Richard Casor and Alexis Cassel to the round of 32.
Barbara gave Baker an angry look at Baker coming down the spiral staircase.
Baker came down: "What's wrong?" ”
Barbara was a little speechless: "What do you say? ”
The reunion after many years, what a touching and touching love story, I was ruined by this guy.
Baker walked into the bar: "Even if I don't say it, with Peggy Carter's connections, it's normal to want to know the way Sleeping Beauty curses." ”
Barbara sighed, "Ms. Carter is already looking for the witch. ”
Baker said something great.
Barbara walked over, took the yogurt handed over by Baker, took a sip, and then said with some curiosity, "What do you think, Captain Rogers and this witch?" ”
Baker shook his head directly: "It's none of my business, I don't make any statements." ”
Who knows what Rogers had with this unknown witch, although Baker also wants to listen to gossip, but, he needs to find out the gossip himself, and Baker is too lazy to dig it.
It's better to be a boss than a working man.
And.
Compared to Captain Rogers and the unknown triangle between the unknown witch and Peggy Carter, Baker is looking forward to the upcoming Christmas trip.
The Christmas tour was with Richard's family, and the destination was Byham, New Jersey.
Baker said, "When are you going to take a vacation?" ”
"What's wrong?"
"Christmas Trip."
“…… That's right. ”
When Barbara heard Baker mention this Christmas trip, she thought of something and asked, "Anyway, haven't you always been against traveling outside of New York, why don't you object this time?" ”
"Richard has inherited a pen inheritance, and I want to see it," Baker said. ”
Wrong.
Alexis inherited the inheritance, an inheritance from his grandmother's Martha's family, the inheritance of a man named Clive Rogers.
Speaking of which, if Martha is Steve Rogers' cousin, then this Clive Rogers is Steve Rogers' cousin.
Ten days earlier, Clive Rogers had died on his New Jersey estate, and Alexis had been approached by the estate execution company based on Clive Rogers' will.
Alexis inherited the entire estate.
This made Richard Casor a little apprehensive, after all, in terms of favorability, Richard felt that his favorability with this Clive Rogers was higher than that of his daughter Alexis.
Alexis was excited to hear that he had inherited the entire estate of Clive Rogers, and kept saying that he wanted to visit Rogers Manor in Byham.
It's not.
Richard decided to spend his vacation on Christmas and a bubble bath in the hot springs not far from the manor.
Barbara nodded, "Okay, so when are we going to leave, after Christmas Eve?" ”
Baker shook his head: "Martha has something to do, went to London, Richard and I are thinking, go over early, after all, the manor belongs to Alexis, even if Alexis doesn't live, it's good to clean it." ”
And Christmas, big festivals, the devil knows what good things can be bought in the mall over there if you pinch it.
Barbara thought for a while: "Then it's a week, ten days in advance, it should be okay." ”
Baker drank his bourbon: "Of course you can, it's just that Natasha is on duty again this year, okay?" ”
Barbara laughed: "Who said I took a leave of absence, I went on a business trip." ”
Baker blinked.
Barbara got up and kissed Baker on the forehead: "Honey, looking at you, not letting you destroy the world is also my task as a commander." ”
Baker: "......"
A week passed quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, and it was time for Baker and Richard to agree to drive to Rogers Manor in Bailham, New Jersey.
This time he was accompanied by Kate Beckett, the head of the NYPD's Major Crime Team.
Yes.
Two months ago, Richard and Kate finally decided on a relationship after several years of long-distance love, and Baker heard Martha say that the first time, the two of them were no different from frightened rabbits.
Baker regretted that he could not be there.
Soon.
The two men in charge of driving also drove their respective vehicles up from the underground garage.
Byham, New Jersey is still a game away from New York, although it is okay to drive one car, but Baker strongly requires two, driving on the federal road, and the probability of a car breaking down and encountering an ogre is very high, and the two cars are different.
But......
Just as the Baker and Richard families set off on their way to Rogers Manor in Byham, Ms. Peggy Carter, who was at S.H.I.E.L.D. in New York, was re-investigating Steve Rogers' background.
