The light of dusk shone through the curtains of the RV, dyeing the small space with a layer of sunset red.
The soldier boy walked slowly into the car, his leather boots making a slight sound on the metal floor. As soon as he entered the RV, his eyes were immediately locked on the figure tied up at the end of the RV.
The baroness, who originally looked elegant, was now in a mess. Her hands and feet were roughly tied up with several hemp ropes outside her crimson uniform, and her red hair hung messily beside her face.
Even in this embarrassing situation, she still had a proud attitude and raised her chin slightly, but all this calmness disappeared completely when she saw the soldier boy.
Seeing the soldier boy coming in, her expression suddenly became dull, and the whole person was down for dozens of seconds. After a long time, she spoke:
"You, are back..."
The soldier boy slowly walked forward with a shield in his hand, with a playful smile on his lips.
He looked deeply at the baroness, with a dangerous light in his eyes.
"Long time no see, dear."
"You've grown old."
He teased, with a hint of nostalgia in his voice.
"Seeing me... you don't seem to react as I expected."
Hearing this, the Scarlet Lady snorted coldly and turned her head away, unwilling to look at him.
The soldier boy chuckled, squatted in front of her, and forcibly twisted her chin to force her to look at him.
"Why, don't you want to see me?" He raised his eyebrows and asked, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
"I came to see you on purpose."
The Lady finally spoke, her voice cold.
"Come to see me? Do you think these hemp ropes on my body are just for show?"
"Oh... Actually, I just want to know why you didn't come to save me for so long?"
The soldier boy's words seemed to touch a nerve of the Lady, and a slight fluctuation flashed in her eyes, but she soon returned to indifference.
"Save you?"
She sneered,
"Do you think I will save you?"
The soldier boy stood up and paced in the small space.
"Let me guess..."
He pretended to think.
"The Russians gave you a lot of money, so you sold me?"
"Hehe."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in the eyes of the Scarlet Lady.
"You are too naive"
She said coldly.
"The fact is that the Russians didn't give me any money at all. I sold you out voluntarily."
This sentence exploded in the air, but the soldier boy's expression did not change at all. He just raised his eyebrows, as if he heard a funny joke.
"Oh?"
He said softly,
"Go on, I'm interested."
The Lady seemed to be irritated by the soldier boy's indifferent attitude. She struggled to sit up straight, and the rope left red marks on her skin.
"Asshole, do you want to hear the truth?"
She gritted her teeth and said,
"I have always fucking hated you. You are a damn asshole. No one, including me and my teammates, doesn't hate you!"
The soldier boy shook his head gently, and the smile on his face suddenly became stiff, and his teeth began to move up and down.
Seeing the soldier boy's reaction, the Scarlet Lady's eyes continued to flash a trace of ruthlessness.
"You know? Maybe Walter thought you were a burden at the beginning, so he deliberately designed you to be captured by Russia."
She scolded, venting all her dissatisfaction in her heart. .
"You have never been a fucking war hero, just a pathetic experiment."
After hearing this, the soldier boy suddenly laughed, and the laughter echoed in the small space.
He leaned over and approached the Lady's face, with an extremely sad and angry look in his eyes.
"Thank you, dear, I can give you some respect."
Hearing this, the Scarlet Lady's expression became alert. She subconsciously wanted to retreat, but was restricted by the rope.
The soldier boy slowly stood up, his chest began to glow orange, and energy gathered in his body.
"Do you know?"
He said, with a hint of regret in his voice.
"I actually always hope that you can give me a reasonable explanation."
Fear flashed in the eyes of the Scarlet Lady. She looked at the soldier boy in disbelief, and the whole person was stagnant in place.
The whole RV seemed to be still at this moment, and the light drowned everything...
The next day, the headquarters of Vought Company, the Intelligence Analysis Center.
Homelander crossed his arms and stood in front of the huge display screen, frowning. A blurry surveillance video was played on the screen in a loop:
A familiar figure jumped out of the luxury RV and quickly disappeared into the night.
"Zoom in." Homelander ordered, with a hint of subtle tension in his voice.
The picture zoomed in, and the features of the figure became clearer:
Blonde hair,The upright figure and the iconic uniform.
"Damn it."
Homelander cursed in a low voice,
"It's really him."
At this time, Ashley was also standing aside, with a solemn expression.
"When was this picture taken?"
She asked in confusion.
"Just last night."
A technician looked at the data on the computer and answered with his head raised.
"Half an hour before the body of the Scarlet Lady was found."
Homelander took a deep breath and turned to face Ashley."
"We need to control public opinion."
He said with urgency in his voice.
"The public can't know that Soldier Boy is back, at least not now."
Ashley nodded.
"I understand, but should we notify Wujin first about this matter... He happens to be attending the Chamber of Commerce in the state where the attack took place."
"Is it necessary? I guess he is probably trapped in the public opinion of the Gathering Church and can't get away... I am the former captain, shouldn't I do this duty? "
Homelander smirked, showing his neat teeth evilly, and his eyes flashed with an extremely dangerous gleam.
"Um... OK, I will quickly hold a press conference to tell everyone that this is just an ordinary crime and the company has taken control of the situation... Is that okay?"
"Very good."
Homelander looked at her approvingly.
"Remember to emphasize that the Scarlet Lady was only slightly injured. I don't want to cause unnecessary panic."
"Also... as long as Wujin is not here, you all have to listen to me. Do you understand?"
"Okay... OK."
Ashley was forced to smile in agreement under Homelander's tyranny, and then her high heels made a rapid sound on the floor, and she fled from the intelligence center.
Homelander watched her leave and turned to the technicians.
"Continue analyzing the video."
"I want to know where he went. ”
The analyst nodded and quickly operated on the tablet, and the holographic projection switched to a city map.
"According to our analysis, the actions of the soldier boy seem to follow a certain pattern... We speculate that his next target is likely to be the TNT twins."
"What are these..."
"The TNT twins are often active in the Heroes River Crab Club, and the soldier boy may go there to seek revenge."
Hearing the answer, Homelander held his forehead and walked out of the analysis center, his expression was uncertain, and his heart was churning with inexplicable emotions.
Others may not know a secret, but he knows very well that he has the genes inherited from the previous generation of superhumans.
In the early years, he learned from the researchers in the laboratory that he was cultivated through test tubes, and a large part of the source of the test tube ingredients came from those who were experimented.
So sometimes he would feel inferior and think that he was not as strong as the previous generation of superhuman predecessors, not to mention the soldier boy who was the "Repayer Alliance" back then. The captain of the "League".
Since childhood, Homelander has always regarded Soldier Boy as an idol, and has watched his movies no less than a hundred times, but now... his idol has been resurrected, which means that if his news appears in the public eye, his position will be threatened.
He was already very unhappy with Jonathan's position in the Seven, and now... even if it is his idol, he has to prove his power and strength to surpass the contemporary.
He felt an extremely strong sense of crisis.
This made him very uncomfortable.
"The Climax Meeting of the Heroes... It seems that I have to go there."
(Originally, it was written that Homelander knew that he was the son of Soldier Boy, but it seemed wrong. In the original book, he knew it later, so I temporarily modified the content.)
