Marvel: God of Spear Technical Advisor

Chapter 288 Why do you treat me differently?

Xiangqian once again broke into Ms. Carter's apartment uninvited.

"If I didn't know your identity as a billionaire, I would have thought you had come to my place for dinner at the right time." Peggy Carter, who was interrupted from dinner, scolded angrily.

He walked forward and looked around the room casually, as if admiring the furnishings in the room, and at the same time said shamelessly: "Actually, I would be happy to have dinner with you."

"No, don't even think about it, there is no dinner for you here." Ms. Carter coldly refused the attempt to move forward, "I thought you should be in New York now, and the search for the Whitehall file was not that fast;

The people at SHIELD are very worried during this time."

"Isn't that better? No one will notice your movements of retrieving files. When it comes to New York, you already know it." Xiang Qian still looked around, as if this small room was full of novel things.

.

"Of course, the whole world knows. I saw the scene when Tony rushed into the wormhole; it's hard to imagine that he has such courage." Peggy finally noticed the sneaky movement forward, "What are you looking for?

If you are looking for a bug, I remember telling you that there is none here."

Shaking his head forward: "No, I'm looking for someone."

"Looking for someone? There is no third person in this room except you and me. Are you looking for Gulliver's Lilliput?"

"Gulliver's Lilliput... I remember, when I was fostered in the Stark family, you planned to read me famous stories, and the first one was Gulliver's Travels." He typed forward, haha.

"Yes, but as soon as I told the beginning, you told me that you had already read this story." Ms. Carter was even more aggrieved when she thought about it, "You know, in order to communicate with an eight-year-old withdrawn child, I did

How long did it take to prepare? But before it even started, I was told that all the preparations were in vain.”

Qian Qian shook his head heartlessly: "Yes, yes, it's my fault. I shouldn't have acted like a genius. But who made you even remember the name of the original author wrong?"

Ms. Carter was furious: "Did you come here suddenly just to recall the past?"

"No, of course not; I told you, I'm here to find someone."

"Who are you looking for?"

At this time, Xiang Qian finally found the target he was looking for; he stared intently at the corner of the wall behind Peggy. In fact, his eyes had already passed through the wall and landed on the space further away.

"What I'm looking for is the old gentleman who is pushing the small dining cart and preparing dishes in the kitchen." Xiang Xiang's tone no longer relaxed and casual as before, "Can you invite him over for a chat?"

Even though Peggy Carter had been used to seeing big winds and waves for decades, she couldn't control her expression when she suddenly heard Xiang Qian's words, and immediately showed a strange look on her face.

"Why are you looking for him? Do you know him?" Ms. Carter continued to pretend to be confused.

He looked forward and looked at Peggy Carter in front of him: "Aunt Carter, are you in good health recently? If I want to tell you some exciting news..."

Ms. Carter's uneasiness became more intense: "What do you want to tell me?"

"What I want to say is... about Captain America Steve Rogers - please stay calm and don't get too excited;" Xiangqian noticed that Carter's pupils shrank violently, "SHIELD has found him, I was there just now

I've seen him in New York. If you continue to follow the news about alien invasions, you may have a chance to see him appear."

Peggy Carter originally wanted to pretend to be shocked, and she began to think about how she would react when she heard the news without knowing it; but when she came into contact with the thoughtful gaze forward,

The disguised expression on his face disappeared little by little.

The look on his face confirmed her that this guy was well prepared and couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.

Ms. Carter sighed: "When did you find out?"

"Less than three hours."

Carter was puzzled: "I don't understand, we have never shown any flaws."

"Yes, no. But...there are never two identical leaves in the world, and there are never two identical souls." Xiang Qian leisurely said.

"Soul? What soul?"

"The soul of Captain Rogers." Xiang Qian said, "When I met Steve Rogers in New York, I inadvertently observed his soul; and every time I come to see you to discuss confidential matters, I will observe the soul through

I came to check the surrounding environment to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. Then I was surprised to find two identical souls."

"Steve told me that you were a magician, but he didn't say that you could actually see people's souls...Okay" Ms. Carter sighed in resignation and pressed the transponder on the table, "Mr. Grant, can you?"

Could you please bring dinner as soon as possible..."

"It would be best to send more muffins and trifles; I've always missed their taste," chimed in.

Ms. Carter rolled her eyes angrily and continued to say to the transponder: "Yes, there are more muffins and sponge cakes. Here comes the gluttonous bad boy, who asked you to make them yourself. Please, Mr. Grant.

.”

After Ms. Carter turned off the transponder, she stepped forward and said in a sinister tone: "Mr. Grant? Steven Grant Rogers - this is the captain's real name, right - you are really blatant."

"Yeah, who would have thought that he used his middle name?" Ms. Carter smiled slyly.

"How long has he lived as Mr. Grant?"

"Let me think about it...it's been over sixty years."

"Wow!" Qianqian widened his eyes in surprise, "Sixty years, a diamond marriage?!"

"What's wrong? People in our era were very conservative." Ms. Carter scolded with a smile, "What's the expression on your face? Do you want me to return the muffins and muffins?"

"NONONO!" Xiangqian gave in decisively and asked with a wink, "I'm just curious, Aunt Carter; how do you manage to live a life with Captain Rogers without shame and shame, and at the same time show that you miss you so much in front of outsiders?

Looking extremely sad?"

Ms. Carter was a little confused when she was asked. The phrase "neither shy nor impatient" was literally translated as "Chinglish", which made her a little confused for a moment.

"What... NO BE BASHFUL... and NO... what on earth are you talking about?"

He spread his hands forward and said, "Is it difficult to understand? It means literally...forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."

Ms. Carter didn't know how many times she glared at the bad boy in front of her: "Is it difficult for an agent chief to lie?"

As he moved forward thoughtfully, the faces of Deputy Director Hill and Black Widow Natasha appeared in front of his eyes, and he nodded in agreement.

At this time, the bedroom door opened and "Mr. Grant" came in pushing the dining cart.

Looking forward, this old gentleman has white hair and wrinkles on his face. It is true that he cannot see the heroic and fearless appearance of Captain America; but if you look closely at the outline of his face, you can still see some of his youthful appearance.

"It's an honor to meet you...Mr. Grant." He greeted forward with an incomprehensible tone.

"The muffins you asked for, and the sponge cake." Grant did not respond to the greeting and placed the two plates heavily on the table. His attitude was clearly bad to the naked eye.

Looking forward, he looked at a small piece of muffin that had fallen on the table, and said with fake surprise: "You seem to be very unhappy to see me."

"Have I not made it obvious enough?" Mr. Grant said as he served Carter the dishes, his movements at this time were much gentler.

Qian Qian was confused: "Why? We just met for the first time."

"The first time? Of course it's not the first time. No matter in the past, present or future, you are an out-and-out bad boy." Grant looked indifferent but kept his words. "What I didn't expect was that you...

No, it was just now; you refused Tony's invitation to the party and actually came to London to find me."

It was "past", "future", "at that time" and "just now". Qiang Qian heard many things from these confusing time expressions.

"So, what happened in New York is your past?" Pointing forward to the most critical question, "You and the Steve Rogers who participated in the Battle of New York are the same person? It's just that one day in the future, you will return

At some point sixty years ago?”

This question made Grant hesitate: "I don't know if they are the same person. Tony, you, and Dr. Banner, you have talked about a lot of theories about time, space, and timelines; to be honest, I didn't understand them.

"

"Then you can always tell me how you got here, right?" Xiang Qian asked.

Grant smiled calmly: "I know what you want to ask; no, it's not the time stone."

"You know about the Time Stone?"

"Of course, I have been... well, in the future. The Karma Taj will fight side by side with the Avengers many times in the future. Of course I know about the Time Stone. In fact, I have seen all six Infinity Stones."

Qianqian was full of curiosity: "It sounds like a lot of stories happened."

"Yes, a lot has happened; but are you sure you want to hear it?" Grant seemed to be asking a question, but in fact the expression on his face already expressed rejection.

Qian Qian suddenly realized: "By the way, Kamal Taj's commandment - don't try to change history, and don't try to control the future - you also know this?"

"Of course, Tony and you have warned me countless times; the Supreme Mage of Karma Taj once said the same thing."

"Mage Supreme?"

"Yes, Dr. Strange. He will fight alongside us more than once in the future." Grant had no idea that his reaffirmation of Kama Taj's precepts would actually lead to a violation of the precepts.

Xiang Xiang secretly wrote down this unfamiliar name in his heart, and asked calmly: "Since you know the precepts, why did you violate the precepts when it comes to my affairs?"

"What? I don't understand?"

"I'm talking about the time when I was fostered in the Stark family when I was a child." Xiang Xiang said in a deep voice, "I have to say that knowing your existence today has solved a question that has been lingering in my mind. Why did Carter do that in the first place?

Will Auntie and Howard look at me differently? It is Aunt Carter who is really leading this matter, and she was influenced by you from the future. Right?"

Grant looked puzzled: "I did remind Peggy to take care of you, because..."

"Because you know I am special." Qiang Xiang interrupted the other party, "Besides, I can't imagine why you would pay special attention to an eight-year-old child. Yes, my parents are here to protect Howard and Aunt Carter.

But hundreds of agents from Spearhead and SHIELD die every year, so why am I the only one who gets special treatment?"

"To show your sincerity in cooperating with the Divine Spear Bureau? Please, besides taking care of an eight-year-old child, is there no other more effective and direct way?" Qiang Xiang asked with a sneer.

Grant stopped talking: "Wait a minute, you are saying that you were fostered in the Stark family because of my appearance? But I just contributed to the fact that should have happened."

"Should it have appeared?" Now it was Qiang's turn to be confused.

"Of course." Grant said, "Before I traveled through time, I heard you and Tony talk about your past more than once. It was precisely because I knew that you were once fostered in the Stark family that I reminded Paige

Doing it with Howard. It was going to happen, I just...just gave it a push."

He took a breath and said, "You didn't just push, Mr. Grant. You pushed a closed loop on the timeline!"

"closed loop?"

"Yes, closed loop."

While thinking forward, he used his fingers to draw a curved pattern with large loops of lines in the air, and then explained: "Your timeline looks like a roller coaster in an amusement park; have you ever seen the track of a roller coaster?"

It is winding and winding, with a big loop in the middle, but no matter how the route changes, the vehicle is actually always moving forward - just like your time."

Such a simple metaphor is quite easy to understand, and Grant nodded after thinking about it for a moment.

"But when your timeline overlaps with mine, the situation becomes different." Xiang Xiang said, "You in the future know the history of my foster care in the Stark family, so when you go back to the past, you

It also contributed to this fact. In this matter, a complete closed loop of cause and effect was formed.”

"So?" Grant smiled bitterly, "The way you look now reminds me of a very bad memory. When you discussed the timeline with Tony, Banner and the others, no one could understand what you said."

"You, captain. You were the driving force behind the formation of this closed loop, but you eventually left the closed loop." Xiang Xiang began to mutter to himself, "When did you enter the closed loop, and how did you get out?"

Grant's head was about to explode: "Sorry, this is more troublesome than Karma Taj's time commandment. If you must ask me this question, I think it would be easier to just tell you what will happen in the future."

He was distracted for a moment, then he reacted and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Well, theoretically, time is always full of mysteries and various paradoxes, forget it. Back to the topic just now, if you didn't rely on the time gem, you would be

how come?"

Grant hesitated to speak.

"Why, it's hard to say?" Xiang Xiang said thoughtfully, "Do you think that once this method of traveling through time and space is exposed, it will also have an impact on the future direction of time and space?"

"It's hard for me to judge."

"Ah ha, it's up to you. If you don't want to say it, don't say it."

Xiang Qian seemed to want to give up, but was a little unwilling to do so.

"Can't we even tell what kind of power this method belongs to? Magical? Supernatural? Technological... technological!" Qiang Qian asked casually, seemingly carelessly, until he suddenly stopped shouting, making Grant startled.

, and then became furious.

"Damn it! I actually forgot that you know psychology and micro-expression judgment." Grant said angrily, "You are really so annoying from the beginning to the end."

"Oh! From beginning to end? It seems that you feel it very deeply."

"Of course, every time I see you, I get a deeper understanding of your bad nature; even today is no exception." Grant said, "I didn't know until today that you can observe and judge a person's soul.

, and you never disclosed this."

"It's not surprising that I'm good at keeping secrets, right? After all, my parents are both agents. Even when they were in foster care, Aunt Carter and Howard were the founders of the world's largest intelligence agency."

Xiang Qian poked the elderly captain's lungs nonchalantly: "More importantly, it was you who put me next to them."
