CHAPTER 313: ROGERS’ WORRY
“Hello, Captain Rogers. Thank you for helping me this time. I heard that SHIELD also lost a lot of people this time, my apologies for your loss.” The call was answered and Lin Rui said to Steve Rogers on the other side.
Actually, Lin Rui was not surprised that Rogers called him. Because at the Hydra base, Captain Rogers had made it clear that he had to talk with him but he was interrupted by Tony.
Of course, Lin Rui can probably guess as to why Captain Rogers is looking for himself. The first possibility is that he is looking for information on Winter Soldier Bucky and the other option is that he is looking for general information on Hydra for SHIELD.
“Hello, Mirage Knight, it’s good that you are okay. Although this was a rescue operation, Hydra was originally the enemy of SHIELD, and those soldiers knew that they could die before going in so they will not have any resentment.” Hearing Lin Rui, Captain Rogers said quietly.
As a standard Soldier, Captain Rogers knows that there would be many sacrifices in their fight against Hydra and these things will not shake him.
“Well, I know. So what does Captain Rogers want from me? As long as I can help, I will certainly help.” Lin Rui was no longer polite and asked directly. Now Lin Rui has planned to cooperate with SHIELD to deal with Hydra thoroughly, so if there is any problem with Captain Rogers, Lin Rui will try his best to answer him.
“Well, I did have a question for you. That is, have you seen Bucky in that Hydra base?” Upon hearing Lin Rui’s direct question, Captain Rogers stopped beating around the bush and asked directly.
It turned out that Rogers was still looking for Bucky. It seems that SHIELD really did not find a trace of Bucky! Could he really hide like that? Without Hydra’s sanctuary, where can Bucky who is a killer and had been out of touch from modern technology go?
Hearing Captain Rogers’ words, Lin Rui couldn’t help thinking that. Although Lin Rui knows the plot of the Marvel movies, he doesn’t know where is Bucky hiding right now. Bucky has been avoiding the search of both sides since he left Hydra. He was also inexplicably found by someone in the ‘Captain America Civil War’ that triggered the civil war between Iron Man and Captain America and the heroes led by them.
“Where is Colonel Bucky? I did see the Winter Soldier in this Hydra base, but it wasn’t Colonel Bucky Barnes.” After thinking it over, Lin Rui said as flatly as possible.
Captain Rogers’s breathing on the other end of the phone is noticeably heavier when Lin Rui says that he had seen Winter Soldier, but the excitement is dampened when Lin Rui says it’s not Bucky.
“Not Bucky? But there was a Winter Soldier? So does that mean Bucky was probably at the base, too?” Captain Rogers doesn’t doubt what Lin Rui had said, and Rogers doesn’t delve into how Lin Rui had known about Winter Soldier. He just wants to find Bucky.
“Actually, Captain Rogers, I didn’t tell you the complete truth last time.” Lin Rui took a deep breath when he heard Captain Rogers’ words.
Last time he met Rogers, Lin Rui said that if he wanted to find Bucky, he would have to go to Hydra’s bases one by one. That’s because Lin Rui wanted Captain Rogers to try his best to find and destroy Hydra. He didn’t tell Rogers that Bucky had probably recovered some of his memories and had already left Hydra.
Now, Lin Rui no longer plans to lie to Rogers. He believes that even if he tells Rogers the truth, he won’t let go of Hydra.
“What?!” Captain Rogers’ tone rose a lot when he heard Lin Rui’s words.
He did not know why Lin Rui said this because what Lin Rui had said to him last time, Rogers also confirmed that information with Fury and it is a pretty sure thing that Bucky is the Winter Soldier of Hydra.
“I did see Winter Soldier in Hydra’s base yesterday, but it was a new type of Winter Soldier. Bucky, as an older generation of Winter Soldier from sixty years ago, may have been abandoned by Hydra.” Knowing that Rogers was surprised, Lin Rui continued to explain.
“You mean! …” Hearing Lin Rui’s explanation, Rogers on the phone seemed to think about something.
“I mean, Bucky Barnes may have recovered a part of his memory and fled from Hydra. However, because he was controlled for sixty years, the memory he recovered may be fractured or limited for now. Therefore, the most likely scenario is that Colonel Bucky is hiding from SHIELD and Hydra’s search.” Not intending to hide anything, Lin Rui told Captain Rogers exactly what he knew.
After Lin Rui finished speaking, Captain Rogers on the other side of the phone didn’t talk for a long time, and Lin Rui could only hear the uneven breathing from the other side of the phone.
“Mirage Knight, you mean. Bucky, has he remembered me?” About a minute later, there was a hesitant Captain Rogers voice on the other end of the phone.
“Er… This, I think it should be, he may have remembered you but I can’t be certain.” Lin Rui speaks knowing what answer Captain Rogers expects now, but he can’t guarantee this so he could only say this.
“Then why didn’t he come to me?! Sixty years have passed and all of our Comrades-in-arms are all gone now. At the time when I had nothing, I still had Bucky! Now, when Bucky has nothing, he still has me and he should have realized that!” Captain Rogers didn’t seem to hear the uncertainty in Lin Rui’s words his emotions seemed to erupt at once as he asked loudly to the phone.
For Steve Rogers, most of his memories are still those of sixty years ago. After all, Barnes was the only friend of Steve Rogers in this strange modern world who had survived for 60 years and no matter what he had become, Rogers would not abandon him.
“This … Captain Rogers. I’m not really sure that he remembers you. And, even if Colonel Bucky Barnes does remember things, he has been a killer for Hydra for sixty years, do you think Bucky would come to you?” Feeling Steve Rogers’ mood swings, Lin Rui said calmly.
Huh ~
It seemed that Caption Rogers had heard what Lin Rui said and the other side of the phone was quiet again.
“You’re right, if Bucky had recovered his memory, it would have been normal for him to do so. So where do you think I should go to find him now?” Finally, after two more minutes of silence, the voice of Captain Rogers came again.
