Chapter 2: Wade Wilson
Looking at the departing Bucky, Howard Stark frowned, and it could be seen that Bucky's words before leaving really scared the old Mr. Stark. If what Bucky said was true, then S.H.I.E.L.D., which had been established for decades, was a stepping stone for Hydra.
Although Howard wanted to talk to his old friend Nick Fury about what happened today, looking at Maria, who was still unconscious, and remembering Bucky's advice before leaving, Howard dispelled this idea.
"Don't trust anyone, no one ......," Howard muttered to himself, suddenly realizing that after the death of Jarvis, the old butler who had followed him for decades, he didn't have a friend or subordinate around who he could fully trust. After hesitating, Howard could only reluctantly involve his son Tony Stark in this matter.
"Tony, it's me, find a safe place to make sure no one is eavesdropping before talking" Howard called his son Tony with his self-developed mobile phone. With Stark Industries' most advanced encryption technology on his and his son's mobile phones, Howard believes there is no more secure way to make calls.
Tony Stark is only 19 years old, but he has a Ph.D. in materials science from MIT and is now pursuing a PhD in mechanical engineering at Cambridge University. Tony Stark is definitely the darling of heaven, he is a super genius and a super rich second generation, he is having a Christmas party at his home in New York, and he is happy to wander among all kinds of beautiful women. Tony was naturally a little upset when he received a call from his father who didn't have a good relationship with him at such a party, but Tony also felt a little bad when he heard Howard say such a sentence in a serious tone.
"Hey, old friend hasn't seen you for a long time, wait a minute, my party here is a bit noisy, I'll find a quiet place to tell you." Tony pretended to receive a call from an old friend, walked briskly back to the bedroom, and whispered into the phone, "Dad, what's wrong?" ”
"You're here on the xx road, your mom and I are here, and your mom is a little injured, but it doesn't matter. You come alone, don't tell anyone, be careful not to be followed, some things will eventually be told to you. ”
On the other side, Bucky was speeding to New York on his motorcycle. Bucky travels to New York in the hope of escaping Hydra in the hustle and bustle of the metropolis. The second is to find a way to regenerate his severed left arm, although the mechanical arm is very combative, but Bucky still hopes to have a normal arm.
With many mutant organizations large and small in New York, such as Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youth, and genius scientists like Kurt Connors, Bucky believes that there will be a way to bring his severed arm back to life.
More than three hours later, Bucky finally arrived in the metropolis of New York, and it was midnight, the time when New York's bustling nightlife began, and it was also the time when New York was full of crime. No, in an alley, Bucky on a motorcycle was blocked, with three people in front and two behind, holding baseball bats in his hands, looking like a street thug.
"Hey, man, your bike is good, do you mind if we try it?" It was a black thug who was at least 1.9 meters tall and weighed more than 250 pounds, and in the dim light, Bucky could see fancy tattoos on his exposed neck.
Seeing all this in front of him, Bucky smiled and smiled happily. He had just escaped from Hydra, he had nothing on him, not even a decent piece of clothing, a combat uniform, and his metal left arm was still exposed, which would definitely be watched by people during the day. I was worried about how to solve the problem of money and clothes, and this was delivered to my door.
Getting off the motorcycle, Bucky smiled and said to the men, "Of course I don't mind, but there is one condition." ”
The black man was very satisfied with Bucky's cooperation, but when he heard Bucky say that there was a condition, he was slightly stunned, and subconsciously asked: "What condition?" ”
Three minutes later, Bucky walked out of the alley alone in a black jacket with a suitcase. The jacket fits perfectly, and the leather gloves on his left hand make it impossible to detect the anomaly on Bucky's left arm, and he has a few scattered dollars in his pocket, which adds up to less than two hundred, but it is enough for the time being.
As for the motorcycle, it was brought out of the Hydra base, and Bucky didn't believe that there was no problem with the motorcycle at all, so the gangsters wanted it, so they gave it to them, and of course Bucky also got his own payment, clothes and dollars. Of course, the thugs were knocked out in the alley, and no one would know where Bucky was going.
Bucky's guess was not wrong, at this time under a farm in the suburbs of Philadelphia, this is the closest stronghold of Hydra to New York, and it is also the stronghold where Bucky set off on the assassination mission. In this underground base, a middle-aged man in a military uniform was yelling at several of his subordinates: "Check, check it for me immediately, I want to know why the Winter Soldier didn't go back to the base but went to New York!" Send three squads to find the Winter Soldier for me! ”
Bucky didn't dare to appear too much on the streets of New York, for fear that the surveillance footage would be detected by the Hydra people, so he could only shuttle through the alleys, trying to find a temporary shelter.
After crossing a few streets, Bucky found a bar, which opened deep in the most inconspicuous alley, with only a flickering light shining on the door, Sister Margaret's Bar. Bucky was a little unsure, and his memories before the time trip told him that it seemed to be the mercenary talent market that Deadpool frequented.
With an inquiring mind, Bucky entered the bar. The bar was filled with hustle and bustle, with big men drinking and laughing, and scantily clad women sitting on the pool table scratching their heads. A blackboard above the bar reads "DEADPOOL", and below it is the name of the person and the money staked, which is the same as Bucky remembers. Coming to the bar, a lewd young man with blond hair and a sloppy beard greeted Bucky and said, "Hello buddy, what do you want to drink?" ”
Looking at the young man's appearance, Bucky was almost certain that he was Deadpool Wade Wilson's good friend Mole, so he smiled and asked, "Are you a mole?" ”
The mole asked himself if he was just a small character, and he was a little surprised that the man he remembered as stepping into the bar for the first time could recognize him. "Yes sir, I haven't seen you in this bar before."
"Indeed, it's my first time here, give me a beer, thank you." Bucky only admits to being here for the first time, but doesn't say why he knows Mole, which makes Mole even more suspicious.
At this moment, a man in a dark gray hoodie sat next to Bucky, the man was expressionless, his eyes were empty, and he couldn't stop playing with a black business card in his hand, and said to the mole, "Tequila, three cups." ”
Bucky recognized at a glance that the person next to him was Wade Wilson, who he hoped to meet. Seeing that he was now as lifeless as a dead man, Bucky reckoned that he had learned that he had cancer. Looking closely at the business card in Wade's hand, there were only a few numbers on the pure black business card, which looked like a phone number. Scanning the bar for a week, I found a man in a suit in the corner, looking very unsociable, you must know that this kind of mercenary bar is rarely attended by formal attire.
Bucky secretly sighed that he had arrived in time, and he had a plan for the next step in his heart, a plan that was more perfect than he had predicted.
"Hey, Wade, nice to meet you."
The familiar tone made Wade, who was stunned on the side, a little dazed, and looked at the young man in front of him, he was sure that he had never seen this person in his more than thirty years of life, so he asked, "We know each other?" ”
"Bucky Barnes, just call me Bucky." Bucky took the initiative to stretch out his right hand, shook Wade lightly, and continued, "That guy told you he could cure your cancer, didn't he?" ”
As soon as he heard the word cancer, Wade immediately came to his senses, looked at Bucky with a slight frown, and said in a somewhat unkind tone: "You also follow me and investigate me?" ”
"Relax man, I don't mean anything malicious, I just have the same purpose as you." With that, Bucky took off the gloves on his left hand, revealing his left hand, which was made of metal, and shook it in front of Wade's eyes.
"Believe it, we're in this group." Bucky picked up the tequila placed in front of Wade and drank it down, and said with a smile, "This is not the place to talk, come with me." ”
Picking up the suitcase he had brought from under the bar, Bucky walked out the door, ignoring Wade, who was still stunned.
Wade kept frowning and looking at the table, preoccupied, for the two guys just now, he was twelve points vigilant, especially the second one, the guy with a metal left hand, with the combat instincts he had gained on the battlefield for many years, this person was very dangerous, and it was definitely possible to kill himself. But his cancer is already terminal, and if it goes on like this, maybe he will only have two or three months to live.
While hesitating to keep up with the dangerous fellow, the mole patted Wade on the shoulder and said, "Wade, things are already like this, could it be worse?" ”
This sentence made Wade wake up, yes, now he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor. After drinking two cups of tequila on the table in succession, Wade, who was a little bad but with a slight sense of justice, seemed to come back, put away the black business card, smiled at the mole and walked out of the bar.
Wade found Bucky waiting in a dark corner next to the bar and asked, "Man, tell me your purpose!" ”
Looking at Wade, who looked a little anxious in front of him, Bucky smiled and took off his black jacket, revealing his entire metal left arm, and his left hand grabbed the iron railing on the side and squeezed it gently, leaving a deep handprint.
"The metal arm has good strength, but I still like the original. Coincidentally, I know a way to regenerate my left arm and cure your cancer, and I'm here to ask for cooperation, Mr. Wilson. ”
