Chapter 37 Bullock

early morning.

Elmhurst Hospital, Queens, New York.

Silton and Jenny brought Bullock to visit Aunt May.

Bullock is the puppy Jenny and Silton adopted last night.

When the two of them named the little Shiba Inu that night, Jenny suddenly thought, "Why don't we just call it Brock."

Silton asked why, but Jenny couldn't answer, but she just felt that she had heard this name all the time recently, and it felt very familiar.

Silton also felt that the name "Brock" was inexplicably familiar, but he couldn't remember where he heard it from.

"This puppy is so cute." Aunt Mei stroked Bullock's head. Her injury has recovered, but the doctor told her to stay in the hospital for a while.

Bullock squinted his eyes and curled up, enjoying May's gentle palm.

"I just gave Bullock the rabies and parvo vaccine this morning, and got the deworming done." Jenny teased Bullock's short, exposed tail with her fingers.

"This puppy is called Brock?" Aunt May thought about it, "The name seems familiar, but I can't remember it for a while."

"Sister, can I touch Bullock?" A little girl from the opposite bed came over.

This little girl is about five or six years old, with big round eyes and long curly eyelashes, she looks very cute.

"of course can."

Silton saw this little daughter very familiarly, as if he had seen it on TV yesterday.

Oh, by the way, in front of many reporters and cameras, she smashed half an ice cream on Iron Man's face, and conveyed her mother's words to the Avengers—"Go to hell, go to hell."

Silton looked at the hospital bed opposite. There was a woman sitting there. Her face was haggard and pale, and she seemed to be in poor physical condition. She had the same Eastern European features as the little girl—light silver hair, light gray pupils .

This is the little girl's mother.

Why is she cursing the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D.?
The appearance of the Slavs should be from Eastern Europe...

They couldn't be Sokovians, could they?
Mei noticed Silton's puzzled gaze, and introduced: "Her name is Polina, and this is her daughter Anna, and they are passengers from Sokovia.

Because of what happened in Sokovia, there is no going back now. "

After chatting with Aunt May for a while, Silton placed a bouquet of flowers and a bag of fruit by her bedside, and then left with Jenny.

The two of them didn't want to go back to Barney's cramped apartment for the time being, so they took a walk in the courtyard downstairs of the hospital to pass the time.

In addition to the doctors and nurses who come and go in a hurry, there are some active patients here.

Silton saw the gaunt woman named Polina, sitting on a bench basking in the sun.

Both Silton and Jenny are very interested in this person; but watching TV yesterday, she learned from her daughter that she has a negative attitude towards the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. I was a little confused about whether to talk to her or not.

While hesitating, the puppy Brock jumped out of Silton's arms, ran to Polina's side with a few unsteady vertical jumps, jumped up, and stood on the bench where Polina was sitting .

Now it's all right, even if you don't want to talk, it's okay.

Silton and Jenny rushed over and saw Polina gently rubbing Bullock's head, her face was haggard, but her eyes were gentle.

"Are you May's nephew, Silton, right? When you were upstairs, you always seemed to be looking at my hospital bed." Polina said.

"Well, yes." Silton said, "I saw your daughter Anna on TV yesterday, so..."

"I'm from Sokovia, and my family is in Sokovia. Because of the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D., Sokovia was ruined, shouldn't they go to hell?" Polina was a little emotional , flushed in the face.

Paulina's words actually have some truth, but they are not completely without problems.

The Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. went to Sokovia to fight Ultron in order to prevent Ultron from destroying all mankind.

They did, but at the cost of destroying Sokovia.

If this is the whole picture of the matter, then there is no problem with Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D., because even if Sokovia is not destroyed in the battle with Ultron, it will eventually be buried with the entire earth.

But Silton, who knows the inside story, knows that this is not the whole picture. In fact, the creators of Ultron are Iron Man and Banner. In this sense, they are the culprits who destroyed Sokovia.

However, it would not be right to completely deny Iron Man because of this. After all, his purpose of creating Ultron is also to protect the earth...

"Actually, that day I just wanted to take Anna to watch from a distance, let Anna know who destroyed our home, and did not instruct Anna to humiliate Tony Stark." Polina continued:
"Who knew that this little guy was so brave, he rushed over and told the camera everything I said to her in private.

The Avengers are your heroes, and it's really not appropriate to say those words when the heroes are triumphant.

But that is what all the surviving Sokovians want to say to them and to the world. "

After communicating, Silton found that Polina was not an unreasonable person, she was kind and strong, and her personality was not aggressive.

Although it was an unintentional move, although it was childish words, yesterday's report really caused an uproar on the Internet and the media.

Sokovia survivors, and more generally Eastern European Slavs, sided with the little girl in Sokovia, mourned the refugees and dead there, and believed that the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. had stretched their tentacles too far;
But most non-Sokovian Asians or locals who have nothing to do with Sokovia are more sympathetic to Iron Man, thinking that the hero who has returned triumphantly should not be insulted like this.

The dispute between the two parties is endless, and there is even a tendency to turn into a violent conflict.

"Where's Anna? Why didn't she come out for a walk with you?" Silton wanted to talk about something else.

"She went to buy ice cream herself," Polina said.

Polina is anemic and has always been in poor health, so she cannot do strenuous activities. Although Anna is small, she does many things by herself.

The sky was as transparent as a sapphire, and the breeze rustled the trees and lawn in the courtyard.

"Clap."

Something fell from the sky, and Brock ran over, wagging his tail.

Silton, Jenny and Polina also followed and saw Bullock licking a broken ice cream on the ground.

"Brock, no." Jenny hugged Brock.

The wind stopped, and the courtyard was inexplicably quiet.

"Bang!!"

A small body fell from the roof of the building and hit in front of the three of them——

Anna!

The back of the little girl's head was sunken, her chest was heaving, and blood gushed out of her mouth, spreading a large swath of red on the ground in an instant!
The crowd didn't realize what was going on, a dozen ice creams were thrown from the upstairs, hitting the face and body of the dying Anna, and then, on the roof of the main building of the hospital, there was a voice shouting from a loudspeaker ——

"Long live Iron Man!"
