Summer Nights did not know whether Dr. Erskine’s journey to New York was over.
But Xia Zhiye's own trip to New York ended a little earlier than expected.
That night, Colonel Phillips, Agent Carter, Xia Zhiye, and even Howard and his group flew to London.
The reason was that Colonel Phillips had a phone call with the president that afternoon and they were transferred to London to start a battle with Hydra!
As a result, the Doctor was the only one who attended the celebratory ball.
Before leaving, Dr. Erskine was still complaining to Xia Zhiye: "The colonel is an old stubborn man. He thinks it is more dangerous for you to stay behind. Going into the battlefield and acting with the main force will make you safer. For this reason, he even found a new bodyguard for me. Of course, I don't deny that your ability can be best exerted on the battlefield. In fact, it is really unfair for you to be asked to protect an old guy like me. But why can't you wait even for one night?"
At this point, Dr. Erskine said proudly, "Xia, I'm a big shot now. I will definitely be the center and the most dazzling presence at this ball. If you can attend, with my influence, I will definitely be able to introduce you to a beautiful woman with a big butt!"
"I think you must have missed the point..." Xia Zhiye's face turned dark.
I don’t know why, but Agent Carter’s face next to him also looked a little dark.
"Hahaha!"
The Doctor laughed and hugged Summer Night: "I will miss you."
"Me too." Xia Zhiye also felt a little melancholy.
The contact time was short, but Dr. Erskine did not treat him as an outsider at all.
He not only regarded Xia Zhiye as a bodyguard, but also as a nephew with whom he could confide. He was very pleased with Xia Zhiye's love of learning, and taught him almost everything he had learned in his life without any reservation.
Although due to time constraints, Xia Zhiye can only swallow it whole...
However, it was time to say goodbye, and Xia Zhiye's heart was filled with reluctance.
Glancing at Steve beside the doctor, Xia Zhiye instructed: "Protect the doctor's safety."
"Yes, instructor!"
Steve looked serious.
This made Xia Zhiye sigh: "I have really grown up... My voice has even become louder."
The future captain's entire face began to twitch, the doctor laughed out loud, and Agent Carter also had a smile on his face.
The car was already ready. After putting the luggage in it and waving to them, Agent Carter started the car.
"I thought I might actually go to a dance. You know, I've never been to a dance before."
Xia Zhiye looked in the rearview mirror and saw Dr. Erskine standing there waving goodbye, and casually said to Agent Carter.
"Then I should be thankful that we didn't participate, otherwise, I would definitely have a sore foot tonight."
Agent Carter pursed his lips, then said to Xia Zhiye, "There's no need to be so reluctant. After the doctor optimizes the super serum and makes the birth of super soldiers simpler, he will join us."
"In the future... there will be many people who have 'secondary development' like Steve, right?"
Xia Zhiye looked out the window.
"Why are your words always so different..."
Agent Carter said helplessly: "Have you ever thought about having a second development?"
Xia Zhiye didn't say anything, but his meaning was very clear.
"I don't know what you are so stubborn about..."
"Maybe I'd be more worried..." Xia Zhiye said, "The doctor said that the super soldier serum will amplify one's own personality. The kinder you are, the kinder you will be. The more evil you are, the more evil you will be... If I use the super soldier serum, what do you think will happen?"
Agent Carter shook his head blankly.
Xia Zhiye sighed and said, "I'm afraid that a new physics idea will open up in my head..."
The meaningless topic continued like this, and then the group flew from New York... to London.
The next day!
Xia Zhiye had just arrived in London and was still packing his things when he was called to the office by Agent Carter.
"Take a look..."
Colonel Phillips had a gloomy face and threw a newspaper to Xia Zhiye.
The first thing that caught my eye was a photo of Steve holding a car door as a shield.
Looking at the content of the news, it is probably about a spy invasion and super soldiers chasing them at night.
"When did it happen?"
Xia Zhiye's face suddenly turned extremely ugly. The image of Steve in the newspaper was almost exactly the same as the way he chased Fred in the movie. This made Xia Zhiye have a bad premonition.
"Last night." Agent Carter gently held Xia Zhiye's arm.
Xia Zhiye was silent for a while, looked at Colonel Phillips, then looked at Agent Carter. Finally, he let out a sigh: "You guys are not trying to tell me... Dr. Erskine, that stinky old man, is in trouble?"
"The doctor was assassinated by a spy who infiltrated the party last night."
Xia Zhiye was a little dazed for a moment, the doctor's words were still ringing in his ears. Before leaving yesterday, he told himself that he would introduce a beautiful woman to him at the ball.
Today... he is already dead
…
…
Coming out of Colonel Phillips' office, Agent Carter followed Xia Zhiye carefully, step by step, as if he was afraid that Xia Zhiye would do something stupid.
Xia Zhiye looked at her helplessly: "Can you let me be alone for a while? I want to be quiet..."
Agent Carter could only nod and didn't ask who Jingjing was.
Xia Zhiye didn't run around, but just returned to his room.
He flipped his hand and took out the super soldier serum from the decomposition machine space.
Judging from the fact that the decomposition machine did not jump out to show its presence, this thing is unable to decompose itself, at least for the time being.
Of course, Xia Zhiye didn’t have this idea.
It's just that seeing the things reminds me of him, Xia Zhiye is still a little dazed... I always feel that the old man wouldn't die so easily.
Colonel Phillips also explained what happened at the ball. There were two spies in total.
The first one disguised himself as a service staff and carried out the first round of assassinations.
Steve captured the man on the spot... and in the chaos, the second round of assassinations began.
After succeeding, the other party fired indiscriminately, causing greater chaos and then started to escape.
This led to the news report about Steve chasing the spy at night.
The serum rolled in Xia Zhiye's palm. Xia Ye inexplicably remembered what the doctor had said before, 'They think I can bring them more', and the relief that flashed across the doctor's face when he handed the last serum to him...
"Did the Doctor already foresee this?"
Xia Zhiye suddenly grabbed the serum, but finally sighed softly: "Old man... your death is too sudden, isn't it? Where is the beautiful woman you promised? Are you not keeping your word?" (To be continued)
