MTL - The Kryptonian of a Certain American Comic-Chapter 50 50, wake up
Chapter 50 50, Awakening
In a retro room.
The furnishings in the room are all set during World War II, and the most popular songs at that time are playing on the radio. In the center of the room, there is a hospital bed with a muscular handsome man lying on it.
This person is Captain America, Steve Rogers.
Soon after, Steve Rogers slowly opened his eyes.
He subconsciously looked around vigilantly.
This is a single-room nursing home. Through the open door, he can see the nurses hurrying outside with first aid kits.
There is also a woman supporting the old man to walk slowly, and a few little kids are fighting with each other in the corridor.
There were even a few people who looked like high school students poking their heads out to look into the room.
One of the little boys, after looking at Captain America, shouted excitedly towards the outside of the corridor: "Old Rorschach...doctor, he is awake, Captain America is awake!"
This voice attracted almost everyone's attention, and people around crowded at the door.
Nurses, old people, children, everyone looked curiously at Steve Rogers in the room.
On the hospital bed, Steve, who was in a blindfolded state, rolled over and got out of bed. Although he was a little dissatisfied with being surrounded by so many people, these people seemed to be just a group of ordinary people.
And Steve can feel from the eyes of these people that they have no malice towards him, but the novelty and joy of ordinary people seeing celebrities.
"Who can tell me where I am now?" Steve walked towards the door and asked everyone with puzzled eyes.
"We won, Captain, you are a hero to all of us!"
A pretty-looking little nurse approached Steve excitedly, and even couldn't help reaching out to touch Steve's chest.
What a wide and strong pectoral muscle!
Facing the little nurse's mopping up behavior, Steve felt a little helpless, even... he felt that this action seemed familiar...
Steve suddenly thought of something important, and he immediately looked back around the room.
He wants to find a calendar, a newspaper, or anything else that will tell him what time it is.
However, after looking around, I found nothing.
"What time is it now, how long have I been asleep?" Steve looked nervously at the little nurse in front of him.
Before the little nurse could answer, a figure squeezed in from outside the door.
"Mr. Rogers, you have been asleep for a long time."
Rorschach squeezed through the crowd and walked up to Captain America. He scanned him with X-ray vision.
Captain America has fully recovered.
Hearing Rorschach's words, Steve subconsciously looked at Rorschach, and asked in a deep voice: "A long time, how long is it?"
"So long...you missed a dance." Rorschach replied.
"How do you know...Peggy...Where is Peggy now, and where am I now." Steve became emotional all of a sudden, and he was about to rush outside.
Rorschach pressed the opponent down.
"Listen to me, Mr. Rogers, you are in New York now, and your Peggy is also in New York. She has been waiting for you for a long, long time. I can let you see her, but there are a few things, you must listen to me, you can Is it?" Rorschach said patiently to Captain America.
Steve looked directly at Rorschach, and he found himself held down by the other party.
But in desperation, Steve didn't care about these things, but said seriously: "Okay, tell me, I'll listen."
Rorschach first let all the onlookers leave, then he closed the door and let Steve sit down.
"You should still remember what happened before you fell asleep. We found you in the Arctic glaciers and brought you back for resuscitation treatment. Because of the efforts of you and your countless comrades in arms, World War II was won and the whole world ushered in peace. , you have also become everyone's hero..."
"As for how long you have been asleep, Mr. Rogers, I hope you will be mentally prepared first." Rorschach said calmly.
Steve had some guesses in his heart, maybe he had been sleeping in the glacier for a long time.
Is it ten years, or twenty years...
After being silent for a while, Steve took a deep breath and looked at Rorschach firmly: "I'm already mentally prepared, please tell me everything."
"You have been asleep for seventy years, Captain."
"Seventy years?" When Steve heard this answer, his heart was filled with confusion and despair.
The first thing he thought of was Peggy Carter.
My date with Peggy was seventy years late.
After a long time, Steve looked up at Rorschach: "You just said that we won the war?"
"right."
"Since we have already won, why do you revive me, why don't you let me just sleep like this?"
Steve Rogers suddenly didn't know how to face Peggy, and how to face this new era.
Seventy years, it means that everything he was familiar with in the past has changed beyond recognition, even a baby before he fell into a deep sleep is now very old, not to mention the Agent Carter he loves.
For this kind of ending, Steve prefers to sleep in the glacier forever.
"Those who hold wages for everyone should not let them freeze to death in the wind and snow. Your final destination should not be a cold glacier... Besides, do you really have the heart to let Peggy Carter die of old age on a hospital bed with a lifetime of regrets?" ?” Rorschach continued.
He investigated Peggy Carter. In this world, there is no Captain America from the future, who traveled back to the dance with Peggy.
In this world, Peggy Carter has never married and has always been alone.
Hearing the name Peggy Carter, Steve's eyes were full of apology.
He lowered his head and murmured, "How is Peggy now?"
"It's pretty good, I mean, for an old lady in her nineties, she's in good spirits. But as far as I know, she seems to have been unable to let you go, and has never been married, so much She is old and has no children to take care of her, so she can only spend the rest of her life alone in a nursing home."
"I'm sorry for her." After hearing this, Steve felt as uncomfortable as being stabbed by a knife.
Rorschach changed the subject, "It just so happens that I have made a lot of achievements in the field of genes. For the situation of you and Peggy Carter, I have two targeted treatment options. Are you interested?"
"What treatment options?" Steve asked.
"One is to accelerate your aging, turning you into an old man in his nineties, just in time for a vigorous evening romance with Grandma Peggy..."
"The second option...is to restore Grandma Peggy's youth. This may be a little more difficult than the first option, but for this option, I have specially designed several feasible plans."
In this Marvel universe where the dead can be resurrected, just letting Peggy Carter regain his youth is definitely not something that cannot be done.
Using genetic medicine to regain her youth is the most scientific method, and there is also cloning a body, transferring consciousness to a new body, and so on.
In addition, the Time Stone can also be used to reverse the time on Peggy Carter and return to the state of seventy years ago. Of course, this plan needs to ask the opinion of the Ancient One Mage first.
Steve did not rush to make a choice, but looked directly at Rorschach, wondering: "Who are you, and what price do you have to make me pay?"
"Let me introduce myself again, my name is Rorschach, I am a scientist, as for what price you have to pay..."
Rorschach paused for a moment, and said, "The nursing home where Grandma Peggy is now is just short of a guard. Food and housing are included, and the salary is good. Do you need to think about it?"
