Outside the operating room of a private hospital affiliated with S.H.I.E.L.D.

Lu Mingfei, Natasha, Tony, and Steve are all standing outside the glass wall of the operating room, and they can clearly see Bucky undergoing a detailed physical examination inside.

"So, the one lying in it is your friend from seventy years ago, Captain?" Lu Mingfei looked at Steve and wondered, "What's the matter, he was also frozen?" He didn't look like an old man who was almost a hundred years old. ”

"During our fight with Hydra, Bucky fell off a cliff and I thought he was dead......" Steve's face was heavy.

"Captain America's friend turned into a super-killer?" Tonymo rubbed his chin, "If it weren't for the information from S.H.I.E.L.D. showing that this 'Winter Soldier' had a record of assassinating other important people many years ago, I would have suspected that those people who didn't want you to be elected president would have deliberately done such a thing to get us, and when the news is released, your approval rating will definitely go crazy." ”

"Many years ago?" Steve was stunned.

"The existence of the Winter Soldier is a legend to many intelligence organizations, and they lack evidence and information, so they think that this person does not exist, or that it is actually a code name," Natasha explained, "because the Winter Soldier has committed more than two dozen assassinations in the last fifty years, including today." ”

"I don't believe it either," Lu Mingfei complained on the side, "Shouldn't the methods that can keep people strong for more than fifty years should be used on politicians and the rich?" They are hungry for immortality, and they are going mad with thirst. ”

"No, I'm afraid this anti-aging method is not suitable for the rich," Tony looked down at the screen of a small tablet, "that ...... Belch...... His name is Bucky, right? Judging from the results of the physical examination, there are signs that he has been frozen and dormant many times, and he will almost stop aging during the freezing period, and his body has been strengthened and transformed, although the strengthening range is lower than that of the captain, but it is far beyond ordinary people, so he can resist this immature freezing dormancy technique......"

"Frozen?" Steve frowned deeply and clenched his fists.

"Wait," Natasha reacted, "Mr. Stark, why do you have the Winter Soldier's medical data?" ”

Tony pointed to the operating room behind the glass curtain wall, "Who made your S.H.I.E.L.D. medical equipment networked?" ”

"The equipment in the hospital is all connected to the intranet." Natasha wondered.

"yes, I just connected to the intranet here." Tony Road.

Natasha:......

Are you too lazy to hack into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s network now?!

"By the way, his brain seems to have been modified, a bit like an organic lesion, which causes changes in people's mental states and thinking patterns," Tony explained as he stroked his fingers across the tablet. ”

"Brainwash people into assassins, freeze them when they don't need them, and unfreeze them when they need to assassinate their targets," Lu Mingfei thought for a while, "Isn't the force behind him using him as a tool killer?" ”

Steve took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and exhaled slowly, "Tony, can you unwind Bucky's brainwashing?" ”

"Yes, but I need time," Tony said, "and the brainwashing he received was not psychological, but a structural change in the brain, which is an extremely delicate and fragile organ, and I need to study it well to restore and eliminate the effects of this brainwashing." ”

"How can I help?" Steve asked.

"If you're willing to help me with a cup of coffee while I'm looking up the brain medical data, then you can do me a favor." Tony shrugged.

"Tony, do you have research in brain medicine?" Lu Mingfei said curiously.

"No, so I'll have to look it up," Tony said, "but it should take a long time to clear this physical brainwashing, and the brain can't afford to take risks." ”

Lu Mingfei suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind: "By the way, if it's very troublesome to use scientific methods, maybe you can try it from the magic aspect?" ”

"Magical?" Natasha was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you want to ask that Thor for help?" ”

"No, although the magic of Asgard can be regarded as a type of science in essence, the Asgardians, whether in magic or science, do not study medicine," Lu Mingfei said, "because they don't get sick at all, and even if they are injured, they can heal themselves by their resilience." ”

As someone who has been to Asgard, Lu Mingfei is very familiar with this.

"What's that way around?" Steve asked eagerly.

"It's magic, too, but not Asgard's magic." Lu Mingfei Dao.

"It's not Asgardian magic, what kind of magic is that?" Natasha, with the acumen of an agent, instinctively felt that this would be important information.

Lu Mingfei shook his head and didn't continue—although the existence of the mage group is not absolutely secret, and there are many ordinary people in Kama Taj who have become mages through various rumors and found Kama Taj for help, he still doesn't want to say these things to S.H.I.E.L.D.

Ignoring Natasha's resentful gaze, Lu Mingfei took out his mobile phone: "Hey? Dr. Banner, do you have time now? We're afraid we need your help. ”

……

Inside the Bakit Nursing Unit, a private hospital affiliated with S.H.I.E.L.D.

Lu Mingfei and the four of them, plus Dr. Banner, who had just arrived, gathered around Bucky's bedside.

Bucky is still unconscious in a coma, considering that he is still in a state of being brainwashed and the danger is very high, so he is fixed to the bed with a belt, a bit like a severely mentally ill person who is restrained.

"Please, Dr. Banner." Lu Mingfei Dao.

Unlike Lu Mingfei, who has only learned the out-of-body body, Dr. Banner has Hulk and can borrow from weak magical creatures, so he has studied some magic in depth, although the learning time is still short, but Dr. Banner is a high-IQ talent after all, and there is also the Supreme Mage personally taught, and the current magic attainments are not low.

And because of Hulk's problem, Dr. Banner also specializes in soul magic, so Lu Mingfei thinks that there may be a surprise for him.

Dr. Banner nodded, then said, "Guys, please get out for a moment, I need to be quiet." ”

Lu Mingfei, Tony, and Natasha nodded and prepared to leave, but Steve was a little uneasy: "Doctor, Bucky's current state is very unstable, if he breaks free, it is likely to attack you, and it may not be safe for you to be alone with him." ”

At the beginning, Hulk's news was suppressed by Tony and S.H.I.E.L.D., so Steve only knew that Dr. Banner was a friend of Lu Mingfei and Tony, and that he would switch Hulk's personality when stimulated, and his personality was irritable and could hurt people, but he didn't specifically understand Hulk's powers.

While Bucky has undergone a super-soldier transformation similar to his and a robotic arm, Steve worries that Dr. Banner will hurt if he goes berserk.

But Dr. Banner assures that there will be no problem, and Steve has to go out with Lu Mingfei and the others.

After everyone else had gone out, Dr. Banner sat down next to his hospital bed, drawing a circle with both hands, and trying to feel Bucky's mind.

The next second, Bucky opened his eyes suddenly, and the metal pieces on the mechanical arm suddenly moved, breaking the belt that bound him, and then choking Dr. Banner like a poisonous snake.

"Who are you? Where is this? Bucky's eyes were bloodshot and he hissed.

He was about to change his posture to restrain the somewhat elegant civilian man in front of him, so as to loosen his neck and let him speak, when he saw a trace of greenery suddenly appear on the man's face.

Then, under Bucky's puzzled gaze, he was completely enveloped by a rapidly expanding black shadow.

……

A palpable tremor came from the hospital room.

Lu Mingfei and the others, who were guarding outside, hurriedly rushed in, and Steve took the lead - Dr. Banner inside was here to help him and Bucky, and if he was hurt by Bucky, Steve would blame himself very much.

"Dr. Banner, are you alright?" Steve slammed open the door to the hospital room and looked up.

Then the face was sluggish.

The green monster with the ceiling above him was holding Bucky's mechanical arm in one hand, and the sturdy killing weapon had been completely flattened at the moment.

Bucky, dangling in mid-air with his arms pinched: ......
