The extraordinary life of a certain American comic

Three days ago in the afternoon?

When Locke heard this time point, he suddenly remembered that when he was at home, old Underwood seemed to have said that he had met Gideon Malik three days ago.

So... the call that Alexander Pierce received at that time was from Gideon Malik?

Seeing that things were impossible, he chose Plan B.

Is Hydra really going to give up Nick Fury and invest in him instead?

But...

Why?

Locke still couldn't figure it out. After leaving the Sentinel headquarters behind him and returning to the car, he still couldn't figure it out.

God is my witness, he dragged Esme to the Sentinel headquarters just because he didn't want to waste too many brain cells on this issue.

Rule four, believe in the wisdom of future generations.

If he can't figure it out now, then don't think about it, let Locke worry about it in the future.

He dragged Esme to the Sentinel headquarters mainly to relax and change his mind.

Another reason is to give Esme a guarantee with practical actions.

You are my legal wife, and you will always be the only one who accompanies me in public.

As a result...

It's back to this question again.

"Honey." After restarting the car, Locke looked at Esme beside him: "How about you help me think about it?"

"Didn't I give you advice?" Esme put down the file in her hand and looked at Locke who asked her for help: "Won't you know after meeting? Didn't you say you are very smart?"

Speaking of this.

Esme suddenly paused, then seemed to think of something, and looked at Locke suspiciously again.

"Honey, you don't really want to get my permission in this way?"

"How is it possible, I just don't like this feeling."

This feeling is terrible.

He doesn't like it.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, this is Locke's consistent principle.

This is also the reason why he never charged into battle with the special forces before, but took Debbie and Jack to assist downstairs.

Give him enough time, he can become a god, or even a super god.

So...

What's the point of playing with your life.

Luke said in a gloomy tone: "What if the other party wants to trick me in this way and then kill me."

It is well known.

In the Federation, sometimes, by eliminating the victim, it is also possible to resolve the conflict.

Although this possibility is very low.

But...

What if?

Locke dare not bet on the conscience of Hydra.

And, facts have proved that Hydra has no conscience at all.

Although he is not afraid that Hydra will really do this, he hates trouble.

At least before he returns to New York City to contact the mutant laboratory, he is not willing to cause other troubles.

As for Nick Fury?

It's all personal grudges!

Esme was a little surprised when she heard it.

"No way."

"Why not."

"Isn't she your ex-girlfriend?"

"You said it was an ex-girlfriend."

It's not uncommon for current girlfriends to kill boyfriends, and there are even wives who cook their husbands' ashes into rice.

An ex-girlfriend, what's that.

Locke analyzed very calmly.

He is not a love-brained person.

As for Stephanie Malick, she is even less of a love-brained person.

In a way, Stephanie is the same type of person as his mother Claire.

They both like power.

And the way these two pursue power is almost the same.

They both like to gain power by conquering men!

In fact, if Stephanie had not "hoped for her husband to become a snake", according to the plan, Stephanie would not have returned to take over the family business, but would have entered the official career with the help of old Underwood because of the marriage.

Anywhere, any country, money is always lower than power.

The Federation is no exception.

Here, money may be able to accomplish 99% of things, but the remaining 1%, only power can do it.

What a pity!

Stephanie insisted on hoping for her husband to become a snake and tied him to the big ship of Hydra.

What can Locke do.

He was just an ordinary person who had no mutation and no krypton gold to krypton.

Again, the same sentence.

If he didn't know about Hydra, everything would be fine. Even if Hydra exploded in the future, he could protect himself and Stephanie at the same time.

But if he knew, that would be another matter.

Esme was speechless when she heard Locke's tone.

"Aren't you a little paranoid?"

"Just tell me if there is such a possibility."

Locke did not refute, but asked Esme instead.

A one in ten thousand possibility, that's also possible.

Esme opened her mouth, then shook her head speechlessly, looked at Locke, and sighed.

"So you really don't have any thoughts about your ex-girlfriend?"

"Yes."

"Huh?"

Locke looked at Esme, whose eyebrows suddenly raised, and quickly added: "But I have your tacit consent, my dear."

Esme did not speak, but turned her face to the side, and looked at Locke quietly with a pair of slightly blue eyes.

Locke, who was driving, was a little flustered.

After a while.

Esme retracted her gaze and said calmly, "I have an idea."

"What can I do?"

"How about when you invite your ex-girlfriend out to meet, I will follow you there. It just so happens that I also want to see what your ex-girlfriend is like so that you will never forget her."

Esme gave her own advice.

Although she couldn't figure it out.

But she doesn't need to figure it out, she can know what the other person is thinking just by looking at it.

Not like the man in front of me.

Even after getting married, he is still so mysterious, and it is impossible to tell his true inner thoughts at all.

Esme thought to herself.

Locke's eyes lit up after listening to Esme's suggestion.

But gave up the next second.

It was a good suggestion, but there was no way it could be done.

"Do you think it's possible?"

"Why not?"

"Take your wife to see your ex-girlfriend. Do you think she will come out?"

"...That's right."

Esme thought for a while and looked at Locke: "But it's okay if you don't tell her that I will go too."

Locke shook his head.

"No, I never lie."

"ha!"

Esme smiled subconsciously, and smiled happily.

Locke's mouth twitched as he listened to Esme's heartfelt laughter: "Your laughter makes me feel like I am a heinous liar."

Esme resisted the curve of her mouth that she couldn't control no matter what, and looked at Locke sideways.

"You don't want to lie to her."

"So be it."

Locke glanced at Esme and did not choose to lie. Instead, he said frankly: "I never bother to lie about love. My dear, you don't want to think that one day, I will no longer be honest with you because of other things." ”

Even though he had Esme, he still thought about Natasha Romanoff, even Queen K Catherine, and now he still thought about his ex-girlfriend Stephanie.

but……

This is all because he believes in love.

The most important point.

In any case, Stephanie Malik is not only his ex-girlfriend, but also his first love in this life.

Damn Fuck.

You say you are doing well, why do you insist on expecting your husband to turn into a snake?

Locke still feels a little speechless when he thinks about the scene where Stephanie wanted to show off her cards.

If Stephanie delayed it until his system was activated, he would definitely not be so resistant.

Maybe Locke would even get on the boat right away.

It should be said or not, although Hydra is not good, Hydra is really good to its own people.

Unfortunately, time cannot be turned back.

Esme curled her lips after hearing Locke's words.

"You don't bother to lie. Maybe your ex-girlfriend lied."

"Then there's nothing more to say."

"How to say?"

"What to do, what to do."

Locke suddenly had an idea, blinked, looked at Esme, and said with a smile: "Thank you, my dear."

Esme glanced at Locke who took out his phone from his arms after saying this: "Have you saved her phone number?"

Locke dialed the number and replied without thinking.

"No need, I remember."

"What's my phone number?"

"Your electricity..."

Locke's expression changed and he looked at Esme.

Esme tilted her head and looked at Locke with a half-smile: "Dear, you don't remember my number."

Locke swallowed.

Just then.

The outgoing call was answered.

Locke breathed a sigh of relief and gestured to Esme with the phone in his hand.

Esme took the phone directly, then turned on the speakerphone, placed it on her palm, and looked at Locke without blinking.

A female voice sounded on the phone that sounded three parts surprised, three parts surprise, three parts disbelief and one part panic.

"Locke?"

"...Stephanie."

Locke first glanced at his beloved wife, who was clutching her cell phone. She seemed weak and unable to take care of herself, but she could kill herself when she became violent. He calmed down and said, "I'm back in Washington. Are you free these two days? I haven't seen her for a long time."

Stephanie on the other end of the phone was silent for a while.

Locke saw this and did not ask any further questions.

After a while.

"Okay, the same place? I'm free on the afternoon of the 28th."

"good."

After Locke finished speaking, he thought about grabbing the phone and closing the call.

Just then.

Stephanie's voice came from the phone again.

"Locke."

"Um."

"Xiaoyandong, I miss you very much. See you there."

Locke's name originates from Middle English. In Middle English, Locke's name means "little cave" or "hidden dwelling".

Small cave is a kind of nickname for Locke.

This was once after mom Claire called him once, Stephanie heard her, and Stephanie also learned to call him that on some occasions.

As soon as this nickname came out.

Locke could clearly feel the strong murderous aura coming from the co-pilot.

But it quickly disappeared.

Locke glanced at his beloved wife, who had a normal expression, and said see you there in a serious tone, then quickly grabbed the phone back and hung up the phone.

The next second.

Then he heard the voice of his beloved wife Esme.

"Little cave."

"ha!"
