Chapter 89: Daily Life at the Captain's House (2)
"Yo! New Year! A year ago I was standing here like you trying to jump, and a year later I feel stupid! Can you understand what I'm saying? ”
Ian rubbed his cheeks and made a confidant expression, his tone calm and emotional, full of seduction, at least he thought so.
The young man slowly turned his head when he heard the sound, his immature face was a little handsome, and his gray eyes looked like he had suffered a major blow. Stared at Ian for a few seconds and then turned back again, staring at the night in a daze.
Huh? Ignored, can this be endured?
Ian stepped forward and sat beside him in a few steps, "Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory, the future is very good, we ...... Spider, Peter Parker!? ”
Ian's exclamation obviously stunned the young man, and he turned his head curiously and asked, "We know each other?" ”
Looking at Peter Parker's puzzled look, Ian also rubbed his eyebrows amusedly, he didn't find it on the back just now, isn't this red and blue web tights the Spider-Man uniform? It's just that the material of this wool looks quite painful, and Peter Parker has no desire to hide his identity at this time, so he shouldn't have officially become Spider-Man.
Ian thought for a moment and replied, "I occasionally bump into your uncle and aunt at the supermarket, they are very nice people, they show me your pictures, and they say you are a little genius!" ”
Ian's deliberate words touched some of the kid's nerves, and he suddenly began to cry, which was sad, and it sounded a little oozing on this silent rooftop.
"Uncle Ben is dead because I'm dead! If I had been able to reach out at the time, I could have easily stopped the man, but ......" Peter Parker's voice was completely hoarse, and the guilt hidden in his heart was obviously a little overwhelming.
Ian scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, it was another family tragedy, what could he say? Does with great power come great responsibility? Totally! Sensationalism and patriotic education will only be counterproductive at this time, not to mention that he is not qualified to say this as a passerby, all he can do is to follow him to remember the old man who has passed away, although he has not actually seen it.
Peter Parker's psychology was still very strong, and within a few minutes he held back his tears, and said with a better expression: "Thank you for listening to my nagging, by the way, why did you come to the rooftop, did I bother you?" ”
"It's okay, I'm just admiring the moon." As he spoke, he pointed to the sky, but he was surprised to find that it was cloudy at some point.
The corners of Peter Parker's mouth twitched, "I was distracted and didn't pay attention to you before, I'm sorry, Aunt May is still waiting for me to go home, so I'll leave first." As he spoke, he stood up and leaned forward as if he was about to jump off the building, but suddenly remembered that there was someone beside him, so he obediently turned around and walked to the stairwell.
Ian shook his head amusedly, "After all, I'm just a high school student, and I don't know how to hide myself." ”
Peter Parker left, and the encounter with Spider-Man was like a small surprise in the daily life of the earth and did not leave too many waves in Ian's heart, just as Ian was about to go back, Andrew floated up from outside.
"Why did you get up?"
"Steve is looking for you." Andrew said lightly, this kind of noodle stall that is not interested in anything makes Ian quite awkward.
"What are you looking for me?"
Before Andrew could reply, he heard Steve's shout reach Ian's ears, "Where's my shield?" ”
Andrew pointed into the distance when he heard this, but saw a raging flame burning on the streets of New York at some point, and if so, it would be enough, and there was a series of explosions in the center of the flames.
"What's the situation?"
Andrew shrugged, "Just now Nick Fury informed Steve to attack, saying that there were a few things suspected of being cyborg fighters fighting in the street, and the captain was ordered to attack. ”
Ian raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and Captain America's voice became more and more impatient, "Ian! Where's my shield? ”
Looking at Steve, who was lying on the windowsill downstairs with a dark face, Ian was not embarrassed at all, and replied slowly: "I put the foot of the bed when I went to bed yesterday." ”
Steve's face became more and more ugly, and he gritted his teeth as if he had expected it, and his shield had appeared in Ian's room from time to time since he lived with this guy. All kinds of reasons, all kinds of explanations, from the small table legs to the pancakes, no matter how strange the reasons can always be heard from his mouth. By now, Steve has become the person who comes in and out of Ian's room the most every day. In fact, he wanted to go into the house and look for it himself, but the upright Steve felt that it was a bit of an invasion of other people's privacy, so he was in a hurry to talk to Ian.
After a while, Captain America put on his uniform and jumped directly from the window, and a Harrier fighter appeared in mid-air and directly opened the hatch to pick it in!
Andrew didn't say anything when he saw this, but Ian smiled and waved his hand to Hawkeye, who was piloting the fighter, well, Hawkeye pretended not to know him.
"Aren't you going to help?" Ian looked at Andrew, who was indifferent and unresponsive, and asked.
"What am I going to do? I'm not interested in those righteous and courageous things at all, and I've finally found a clue to the Ability Crystal, and I'm going to recuperate until Johnny and the others find a way to restrain Mephisto and go to him! ”
Ian was a little surprised, looked up and down at Andrew, who had a cold face, and asked, "Don't you Americans all advocate individual heroism?" If you have this ability, why don't you help the weak? ”
Andrew paused when he heard this, and said with a strange smile: "Weak? What a weakling! Although I have great abilities, I can't cure my mother's illness, I can't change my father's temper, and my brothers and friends die tragically. It can be said that he has lived to be a complete failure until now! If I had to say anything weak, then I am a weak person who needs help. Speaking of this, he took a hard breath and said bitterly: "You know what? I have traveled to many places, bustling metropolises, inaccessible no-man's lands, the notorious Gotham City, the crime-breeding Hell's Kitchen, those rich sons who have a strong sense of justice and farts every day, ** silk otaku who want to change the world when they accidentally gain ability, I have seen all kinds of people! Gradually, I became bearish and numb! As long as human beings still have selfish desires, then sin cannot be completely eliminated. And all I have to do is keep my peace of mind and find an explanation for my own tragedy! ”
Ian blinked unexpectedly, "Hey, you're all empty?" Do you want me to introduce a few famous temples and find a master to shave you? ”
Andrew rolled his eyes and asked, "Then why don't you go and help, you're idle every day anyway." ”
Ian's face was frightened, "How's that going to work?" I'm an alien, and if I make a random move, it's an international event, no, a cosmic event! ”
