Chapter 108 Peggy's Remorse

After hearing Itlake's plan, Tony had a familiar premonition, is he going to take the blame for this kid again?

"Are you sure you want to deceive Coulson like this? I remember he said that he used six months' wages to make a bet in front of Nick Fury to ensure that we would not make trouble." Tony said to Itlake with his thoughts through the spider thread.

"Mr. Stark, this is a wrong idea. It's not that I want to deceive Coulson, it's you who want to deceive Coulson."

"..."

Coulson in the driver's seat looked through the rearview mirror and saw the hands of Itlake and Tony connected together with spider threads. He didn't know what he was doing, but he observed that Tony's face changed, and he writhed like he had drunk bile. asked:

"What are you guys doing? What's wrong with Tony?"

Itlake said: "I'm rehearsing the operation to be performed on Peggy. By the way, I will show Mr. Stark how to lift the curtain on the memory."

Coulson laughed: "Obviously you reminded Tony of some bad things, hahaha..."

Tony glanced at Coulson, laugh, you won't be able to laugh later.

A black Chevrolet walked through the clouds. Itlake saw that the internal structure of this car was very familiar. It was a bit like the car in "Captain America II", when Nick Fury was hunted down by Hydra.

At that time, Chevrolet was smashed into tatters by Hydra. Nick wanted to activate the vertical take-off system, but the system prompted "the vertical take-off system has been destroyed". At that time, many fans ridiculed, because of this sentence, I don't know how much it saved for the crew. Special effects funding.

Now that Itlake is personally sitting in this car that is comparable to a tank and armored car, he doesn't feel how advanced it is. After all, he and Tony have spent a long time together, and even more advanced Iron Man mechas are driven by himself. Pass.

The car crossed the sea, landed in a sparsely populated suburb, changed from flying to ground driving, and drove all the way into the urban area.

The car stopped in front of a hospital, and Coulson said: "Ms. Peggy lives in this hospital, because she has not participated in the confidential affairs of SHIELD for a long time, and most of the secrets of her era have now been declassified and made public. , so there are not many special agents around for protection, only some special paramedics from S.H.I.E.L.D."

Coulson opened the car door and got out of the car: "Come with me, I will take you to see her."

The three of them entered the hospital in parallel. After Coulson showed his ID to the front desk, he was let into the elevator.

Get out of the elevator, walk through the corridor, and come to a ward at the end of the corridor. There are several nurses who specialize in taking care of Peggy at the door, chatting in low voices.

Coulson obviously knew them all, and after a brief greeting, he said to them, "Come in, Peggy is here."

Itlake remembered that Captain America Steve Rogers often came to visit his ex-girlfriend Peggy, wondering if he would run into him today.

Entering the ward, the white walls, clean sheets, and the sun shining in made it look more spacious and bright. Itlake couldn't help but sigh, the treatment of retired veteran cadres is good.

The hospital bed was rolled up a little bit, and Peggy was leaning on the hospital bed, her face facing the sunlight outside the window, she didn't know whether she was resting with her eyes closed, or staring in a daze.

Captain America didn't come today, and there were only two nurses sitting quietly by the side of the room. Coulson came to Peggy's side and said softly, "Ms. Peggy, good afternoon."

Peggy turned her head slowly, the marks left by the years on her face were like knife carvings, and the skin on her neck was already loose, piled up like loose thin cloth.

"Kolson, ahem, it's you, you're here..."

Itlake remembers the appearance of Agent Peggy Carter in "Captain America One". At that time, she was high-spirited, heroic, unyielding, and she was a rose with thorns in the army, and she was best at shooting.

At that time, a female soldier who admired the US team forcibly kissed the US team, and was hit by Peggy. Peggy fired six shots at the US team "dang dang dang", hitting the center of the shield.

The current Peggy obviously no longer has the anger of that time, I wonder if she will smile knowingly when she recalls what happened at that time.

"Excuse me, Ms. Paige, I have brought two people. They have something to ask you."

Coulson turned sideways to give way to Itlake and Tony. Peggy saw Itlake, her eyes lit up, and she murmured: "Steve, you, you are still alive..."

Tony was surprised and asked Coulson: "Didn't Steve come to visit Peggy? Why does she look like she doesn't know the news?"

Coulson said: "Peggy's mind is already confused. Even when she meets Captain America face to face, she will suddenly realize from time to time that Captain America is still alive."

The last bit of luck left in Tony's heart was also extinguished. Italek had just transmitted his ideas through the spider silk in the car, and secretly told himself that the "curtain theory" was made up on the spot, and it was fake. He can't remind the subject of things that have been forgotten, at most he can only read out what the other party still remembers.

Looking at Peggy's mental state, it is obviously impossible to remember the layout of the exposition, Tony thought, rubbing a mechanical wristband on his wrist. The bracelet was hidden in the sleeve, with red dots flashing.

Itlake sat on the low stool next to Peggy's hospital bed, took her hand, and said, "Ms. Peggy, yes, I'm Steve Rogers, and I didn't die after I made an emergency landing on the Arctic Ocean. Instead of dying, I was frozen by a glacier, and now I am brought back to life.

Me and Howard Stark's youngest son are visiting you and want to ask you something about your past. "

Tony didn't speak, but he hugged his shoulders in dissatisfaction. Why did this kid Itlake pretend to be Captain America?

And it seems that he has been demoted a generation invisibly?
Eitlake signaled Coulson to chat with the nurses and divert their attention, while he secreted spider silk from his palm, which quietly connected to Peggy's palm.

As I told Tony in the car, Eitlake has no way, or at least in the "Ultimate Homo sapiens" stage, no way to get what the other party has forgotten, but he can get what the other party remembers but doesn't want to say s things.

This ability to forcibly read memories needs to lower the opponent's sense of resistance in advance, but Peggy, who has already mistaken herself for the US team, naturally has no sense of resistance, because she is the closest person to her.

Itlake thought, paraphrasing Tolstoy's sentence in "Anna Karenina"--all handsome people are alike, and ordinary-looking people are all ordinary--just right fit the current situation.

Thanks to myself for having such a handsome face, I was mistaken for Captain America.

Itlake can feel Peggy's feelings for him (Steve Rogers) through the spider silk. Kindness, admiration, and the joy of reunion are mixed and intertwined into a strong light, but behind this light is dark sadness emotions—

They are longing, guilt, self-blame, and vague worries.
