Chapter 139

Steve walks home in the old neighborhood of Brooklyn with a dejected look, no doubt rejected by the officers at the recruiting station, while his friend Bucky passes a medical examination and is soon on his journey to a foreign land to the bombarded European continent.

He and Bucky are both military orphans, their father served in the 107th Infantry Division, they lost their loved ones, they became very good friends with each other, Steve was thin and weak, but he liked to stand out, and when he saw those injustices, he would stand up without hesitation, so he was often beaten and bullied by gangsters in the neighborhood.

“Failed again? Where have you become this time? Westchester, or Virginia? The new tenant put down the newspaper in his hand and asked casually.

“I just wanted to do something for this country, but they kept me out again and again.” Steve lay dejectedly on the couch, risking breaking the law and running from recruitment stations to enlistment, changing the household registration information on the volunteer form, but still no officer would accept him.

However, with Captain America’s current appearance, it is indeed not easy to join the army, thin body, about five feet tall, and mild asthma, no officer will send such a person to the battlefield, it is undoubtedly an irresponsible murder.

“Have you been to immigration?” Steve was concerned about the trouble of his new tenant, and somehow he actually brought this young man he met by chance back to his old house in Brooklyn.

According to Josson, it was his own warm and sincere invitation, and then the young man could not bear to refuse the offer, so he temporarily stayed in his house, but Steve could not remember exactly, but the kind landlord did not mind this kind of thing, and it was a pleasure for him to be able to help others.

“I visited, the immigration officials were very helpful to solve the problem for me, my German relative left a lot of property, but because of the war, only a few houses and shops remained.” With the “enthusiasm” of the immigration bureaucrats, Jossen smiled and said that with the “enthusiasm” of the immigration bureaucrats, he rewrote a simple resume that could not be examined in detail during the war, and picked a copy of German Jews who died in World War II, and the young man became the rightful heir.

“That’s good, if only the officers at the recruitment station were as easy to talk as the immigration bureau, my physical evaluation is 4F, the army will not recruit people with low evaluation, it seems that there is only another way.” Steve said helplessly, the little captain was a little dejected, his friend was about to set foot on the battlefield, but he could only stay in New York, like a woman and a child, waiting for the day when the war would end.

Under the country’s vigorous fishing boat propaganda offensive, most of the young people have a passion for serving the country, and this fanatical mood continues to spread, as if the god of war Ares has descended in this world, long queues have formed in front of the recruitment station, the square is crowded, politicians or soldiers make inspiring speeches every day, and the whole country seems to fall into madness.

Joson looked at the frustrated Steve, and couldn’t help but feel funny, the captain before the injection of serum, just a young man with a sense of justice and a sensitive heart, he would put newspapers in his shoes, and he would also be angry at many injustices in society, full of real feelings, different from the spiritual symbol of Captain America in the future, Captain Rogers at this time was more alive.

“Why do you want to go into battle? Destroy the Nazis, or prove your courage and ability? Johnson asked softly, he hadn’t woken up from the glacier before he came to this era.

“…… I don’t know, I just want to serve the country and end this war early, we have all lost a lot of precious things in the war, relatives, friends and the like, I want to do my part. Steve was silent for a moment, and his dazed eyes suddenly became firm, as if under his thin body, there was some kind of tenacious spirit supporting him, so that this little man would never back down.

Joson patted Steve’s shoulder, under the thin body, the flame of life did not burn vigorously, compared to other strong youths, the captain did look particularly weak, but under the thin body, there was a shining spiritual will, perhaps this is why Dr. Erkins chose him, the better the good guys, the worse the bad guys, and excellent qualities are rarer than strong muscles.

“Those who persevere will always reap the rewards, isn’t that what you often say!” The young man comforted and said that he did not intend to interfere too much in the historical process of this world, this era is just a springboard, along the old trajectory, he can find his way in the long river of time and space, and then officially return.

“Heaven will favor people like you, Steve, don’t be discouraged, we’ll find a way.”

Steve nodded movingly, he didn’t have many friends, people who were too honest were usually excluded, and he happened to be such a person, only Bucky, who grew up together, was always by his side, listening to the troubles and trivial things.

The sincere comfort of the new tenant encouraged the little captain, and the heavy blow of successive rejections made him feel combative, even if there is still some gap between the tall image of Captain America, but there are similarities in a certain spiritual core, according to the trajectory of history, the moment to change the fate of Steve’s life is coming.

“Steve, Joson, get down quickly!” A voice shouted downstairs.

Rogers pushed open the window and looked down, and his friend Bucky waved his hand, as if there was some good news to tell everyone, “Don’t stay in the house all day, we have to have some fun, Steve, and Joson, I’m going to show you somewhere interesting.” ”

The two people tidied up, and then walked out of the house, from the appearance, the building has indeed experienced a long time, the red brick wall has left traces of time, and the dark and tidal corners are covered with moss, full of vicissitudes of the years, while looking a little dilapidated.

“Bucky, do you want to go to the movies again, or accompany you on a date with the girl?” Joson jokingly said that there was a lack of entertainment in this era, that Broadway, frequented by the war, had closed its doors because of the war, and that these young people usually had no place to go except movie screening rooms and unoccupied parks.

“Not this time!” Bucky smiled awkwardly and waved the newspaper in his hand happily, “I’m going to take you to the future!” ”

Johnson unfolded the newspaper and saw the huge headline—”The world of tomorrow starts with Stark Industries!” The bold font is very eye-catching, and the content is full of praise, and the person at the helm of Stark Industries is praised between the lines, praising him as the contemporary Edison, a young genius in the field of invention and creation!

“Howard Stark? Talented? The young man threw away the newspaper, a faint smile on his lips.
