Hearing Mawson's voice, the figure on the opposite side was slightly stunned.

"Who are you?"

"Don't you even know an old friend?" Mawson said with a smile.

"Someone once cut half of my neck!"

"Mawson?!"

"How are you?"

At this moment, Mawson's electromagnetic interference function lost its effect, and the light reappeared in the cave.

The light on the walls was weak, but it was enough to illuminate the silhouettes of the crowd.

"It's really you!"

Barnes lifted half of the face armor from his face, laughed, walked quickly to Mawson, and gave him a big hug!

"Old friend, it's good to see you here!" There was a tremor in Barnes' voice.

"Me too!"

Mawson patted Barnes the back, and a special emotion spread through the cave.

Something called friendship.

Not far away, three figures flashed, dressed similarly to Barnes's, a jet-black tight-fitting combat suit with black visor on their faces.

They removed the disguise from their faces, revealing three young faces, one woman and two men, with the vigor of a young man between their eyebrows, and a hint of deliberate indifference, as if they were imitating someone.

"God, I heard you right, did I? Instructor Barnes actually laughed! ”

"He's the man known as the Winter Soldier, and he even laughs?" A slightly shorter young man muttered exaggeratedly.

"Who is this man?"

"It's very handsome, it looks like it's about us." The only girl among the three chimed in.

"People are much stronger than us, just now in the dark, Instructor Barnes attacked first, but he was still punched out by this man, and it seems that he was slightly injured." The most mature of the three young men spoke.

He observed carefully enough that in an instant, he discovered Mawson's strength.

"You say this guy can't be the bastard son of the instructor, right?" The girl had black braids, and was now staring at Mawson curiously with wide eyes.

"Katyusha, did you listen to them carefully? Didn't you hear the instructor call that old friend of the man? The old boy said helplessly.

"Old friends?" The short young man looked mysterious.

"I've heard that Instructor Barnes seems to be from the same era as Captain America, how could this young man become an old friend of the instructor!"

"He looks like he's 25 years old at most!"

At this time, the two of them also completed a short greeting.

"How's it going, are you alright?" Mawson asked, looking at the trail of blood on Barnes' mouth.

"It's nothing, it's a little hit, and it's a little old." Barnes frowned and moved his metal left arm.

Listening to the sound, the internal parts seem to have been hit, and some of them are not very smooth.

"What happened? How did you get here? Mawson asked.

"I've been tracking the Hydra trail all these years, and I suspect that someone is secretly supporting the war here, so I followed the clues to find this place."

"What about you? Where have all these years gone? Why don't you run here. ”

Mawson sighed lightly, "It's hard to put into words, I have something I have to do, this time I'm here to find Tony Stark." ”

"Tony? Howard's son, what happened to him? ”

Then Mawson briefly recounted the incident, and after listening to Mawson's words, Barnes was thoughtful.

"I've been around here lately, and I haven't really paid much attention to the outside world, but when you say that, I remember. I happened to get the news about Hydra on the day Tony was attacked. ”

"This matter, if you can't figure it out, it's really them doing it in secret!"

Looking around, "This is not the place to talk, let's leave first and let them take care of the aftermath." ”

Barnes had entered the cave through another entrance, and had turned it upside down, apparently with no sign of Tony. Mawson also knew that Monica was looking in the wrong direction, so he didn't say anything, and left the cave with Barnes and walked outside.

In the darkness in the distance, a faint glimmer of dawn was revealed, and dawn was coming.

The two found a high platform and sat on the ground.

Barnes is much older now, looking to be in his 40s, and his sideburns are a little gray.

"What have you been doing all these years? Have you not been asleep all this time? ”

"There were a few times, but it wasn't too long, most of the time it was out there."

He sighed softly, his face was boundless loneliness, "Time can't go back, Mawson, this is no longer our time." ”

Mawson doesn't know what Barnes has been through over the years, but it's clear that he's looking very tired right now.

Although his body has passed for decades, he is still at his peak, but his heart is extremely old, just like the old man Mawson met on the bus.

"Where's Steve?"

"Are you still looking for him?"

Barnes shook his head slowly, just when Mawson thought he had given up hope and wanted to comfort him, but Barnes continued.

"It seems that you really aren't here all these years."

"I found him more than twenty years ago."

"What?!" Mawson slammed to his feet.

"Where is he?"

"He's not here anymore." Barnes replied.

Mawson's heart suddenly burst into his mind, thinking of Howard who had an accident, and he couldn't help but have a bad idea in his heart.

In the world he has experienced, Steve is probably the most emotionally invested person in Mawson.

At that time, Mo Sen was just an ordinary person without any ability, and he tried everything to complete the task, and even almost fought for his own life.

And Steve can be regarded as one of the people Mawson has met over the years, with the most pure personality, and he has the kind of feelings for Mawson who is also a teacher and friend.

But unfortunately, not long after the second encounter, Steve had an accident and was frozen under the snowy mountains.

I thought I would be able to see him this time, but I didn't think about it......

"It took me nearly 40 years to walk through every inch of ice in the vicinity of his fall, and finally woke him up from a deep sleep."

Mawson couldn't imagine what kind of perseverance had sustained Barnes to do this, not even Carter.

"This incident did not alarm the U.S. government, only a limited number of people knew about it, and the years after Steve woke up from the ice were the rarest and happiest times of my life."

"At that time, Jenny was not dead." Barnes had a look of remembrance on his face, "Jenny, remember her, Mawson." ”

"She's a good friend of Kardashian, time flies, and we meet at the World's Fair of Tomorrow as if it was yesterday."

"There was a time when Jenny, Steve and Carter, and we lived in a suburb far from the city."

"Sometimes Sharon and Redboy will come over, and Kardashian will come and everyone will get together and talk about the past......"

Barnes sighed softly, expressing endless melancholy.

"And then, what happened?"

Mawson vaguely felt that what happened after that was the most fundamental cause of Barnes's state.
