Chapter 206: Hydra's Favor Is Not Over Yet
"By the way, didn't Mammy White finish what she said just now?"
Only then did Pietro realize that the nun had not continued speaking since he interrupted her.
Bruce thought for a moment and said, "She told us to remember something after we go to Baron Stark."
But what should we remember?
Anyway, the nanny didn't continue speaking.
Pietro was a broad-minded man. He couldn't figure out what the nanny was going to say, and he was too lazy to go back and ask again, so he simply waved his hand and passed the matter over.
"Forget it. Even though we don't know what to remember, we just need to remember it."
After he finished speaking, he left with Wanda.
We are heading to Baron Stark's experimental base tomorrow, and I need to pack a lot of things tonight.
At least that's what Pietro thought.
Bruce didn't say much. He found his room by the name tag on the door. When he opened the door and went in, Katum was already inside.
The furnishings in the room were very simple. The single iron bed was covered with white sheets, and there was a small bookcase beside the bed.
Besides that, there wasn't even a table.
Bruce sat on the bed, thinking about what just happened, and felt a little strange.
To be honest, this was his first time spending the night in an orphanage. In the past he would just experience it for a while and then leave.
"Why hasn't Brother Adu come yet?"
Bruce frowned and said, "Did something unexpected happen?"
The Durant brothers are the private detectives who come to inform Bruce every time about his inheritance.
Every time they came, Bruce would leave the orphanage.
"It's not like there will be any accidents."
Katoom shook his head and said, "Perhaps this time, fate has other plans for you."
Sometimes the world's will arranges Bruce's identity, and some unexpected coincidences will occur.
It was the same this time. He was inexplicably selected along with Wanda and her brother to participate in Baron Strucker's human experiments.
"What should we do next?"
Bruce asked, "Leave here, or let it be?"
"Let nature take its course and follow Pietro and the others."
Owl said, "If you are a kid wandering the streets without any money and can't explain your origins, be careful of being caught as an illegal immigrant. Some wealthy ladies in their 50s and 60s will like you."
"Then I won't go out."
Bruce listened to the advice and came to this world on purpose to lure zombie Bu to follow him.
Since Zombie Bu hasn't shown up yet, he's not in a hurry.
……
time flies.
The night passed quickly, and when Bruce walked out of the room and came to the door of the orphanage, Pietro and Wanda were already waiting there.
Pietro's eyes were red, as if he had just cried.
"what happened?"
Bruce immediately asked with concern, "Are you thinking about your dead parents?"
Hearing this, Pietro's mouth flattened and he looked even sadder.
"He just went to say goodbye to his girlfriend."
Wanda suddenly said lightly, "It's a very interesting scene, it's a pity you didn't see it."
Pietro has a girlfriend?
Bruce hadn't expected this. Pietro was a small man, but he played quite extravagantly.
"Not a girlfriend."
Pietro wiped his tears and corrected, "We were just flirting. We went on a few dates and it was a wonderful experience. Unfortunately, her boyfriend found out about it and we broke up."
Fine.
Bruce was not interested in this kind of relationship between children, nor was he willing to analyze who was right or wrong in this relationship.
After all, he was already a thirteen-year-old adult, but Pietro was only a twelve-year-old child.
How can adults have the mood to play with children all the time?
"Come to think of it, I should be fourteen."
Bruce thought to himself that he was actually more mature than he was at thirteen.
"what?"
Wanda suddenly spoke in confusion, she looked at Bruce, "Where did this owl come from?"
Katum had landed on Bruce's shoulder again without him noticing.
"I raised it." Bruce said, "If you like it, I can sell it to you."
"Forget it." Wanda shook her head, "I don't like keeping pets."
Although she said so, her eyes never left Katum.
You can see that she is actually very interested.
"You are quite attractive to little girls."
Bruce said to Katum, "Hermione is like this, Wanda is like this too, how about you help me when I chat up girls in the future?"
"How can I help you?"
Katum sneered and said, "Could it be that in the future you will ask girls to your house because you know an owl that can do somersaults?"
"That's okay too."
Bruce took advantage of the situation and chatted with Katum.
We didn't talk about anything important, we were just killing time.
Not long after, a black van drove over from a distance, with an eagle-like paint on the door.
"It's actually .'s car."
Katum almost laughed out loud. Come to think of it, Hydra now has no physical body and is completely parasitic on .
Most of the important figures in Hydra also hold high positions in .
Of course, the current SHIELD is still called the Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency.
The abbreviation of . was given by Tony Stark after he escaped from the Middle East.
But don't worry about the details.
The van stopped in front of the three children, the door opened, and a middle-aged man who looked very friendly walked out with a smile.
"Looks like it's you three!"
He held the document in his hand and compared the photo with the real person in front of him, "Bruce Wayne, Wanda Maximoff, Pietro Maximoff, right?"
"That's right! It's us!"
Pietro rushed to answer. He was in great spirits and very happy to respond to the other party's questions.
In his opinion, the uncle in front of him is his benefactor who will lead him to a new life!
In fact, most of the children in this orphanage in Eastern Europe are war orphans who have a deep hatred for the United States.
They have always been extremely grateful to Baron Stark, who raised them and gave them the opportunity to seek revenge.
Consider him as a father figure.
"You can just call me Liszt."
The uncle said with a smile, "Then let's not waste any more time, just get in the car! I'll take you to see the Baron!"
After getting in the car, the three children sat in the back seat, Wanda and Bruce were leaning against the window, and Pietro squeezed in between them. The engine started, and the car slowly moved away from the orphanage. The scene outside the window kept changing, and in the blink of an eye, they had left the city.
Uncle Lister still had a smiling face since he got in the car, but he showed no intention of communicating with Wanda and the others.
The car was a bit dull for a moment, with only Pietro looking at the scenery outside the window from time to time and making "oh, ah, wow" sounds.
He had stayed in the orphanage for too long and hadn't seen the scenery outside for a long time.
Bruce leaned his head against the car window, feeling the bumpy road. After about two hours of driving, the scenery outside began to change.
They drove into a wood.
The driver zigzagged through the woods, as if deliberately taking detours, and Bruce was sure that this was the third time he had seen the same tree.
The car circled in the woods for a long time, and after Bruce blinked inadvertently, the view in front of them suddenly opened up.
A research institute hidden in the dense forest appeared before his eyes.
"Here we are!"
Dr. Lister said, "Get out of the car, little devils!"
His tone was extremely relaxed and cheerful, as if a school teacher was taking the children to an outing destination.
Lister brought Bruce and the other two into the research institute without stopping and arrived at the door of an office.
After knocking on the door, a voice came from inside.
"Please come in."
Lister pushed open the door, and Bruce finally saw Baron Strucker in the office.
It was a tall, thin white male with a bald head and a blond beard.
This is a very common look for white men, such as Obadiah, the second largest shareholder of Stark Group.
They shave their heads because they are bald, and grow beards to maintain their masculine characteristics.
"It seems that the Baron also has his own difficulties." Katum said with a sigh.
Baron Stark has deep facial features and looks a little sinister.
He wore a monocle on his right eye, which slightly diluted his aura of keeping strangers away.
Seeing Bruce and the other three coming in, the baron's sinister face showed a warm smile.
"Why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
He opened his arms and hugged the three children one by one.
Even when he hugged Wanda, he just gave her a hollow hug, showing his gentlemanly demeanor.
"Hello, Baron Stark!"
Pietro, who had been chattering on the road, suddenly looked extremely embarrassed.
He was visibly nervous, stood at attention, and said to the baron in a serious tone: "My name is Pietro Masikmoff, I'm twelve years old, my specialty is running very fast, and I like to eat..."
"Okay, okay, I know all your information!"
The Baron interrupted Pietro's self-introduction with a smile, "Not just you, but also Wanda and Bruce, I know them all!"
This sentence aroused Bruce's interest.
Does he know his own information?
Bruce himself doesn't know much about himself in this world, but the Baron knows him better than he does?
If possible, he would like to ask how much Baron Stark knew about him.
But after thinking about it, Bruce suppressed his curiosity.
After spending too much time with Katum, he would always think of a picture unconsciously.
When he asked Baron Strucker about his information, the baron might be silent for a long time, and then uttered: "You are an orphan."
Wouldn't that be asking for humiliation?
Bruce said nothing, just watched the Baron act like a good guy in front of them.
His acting skills are really good.
If Bruce had not known the Baron's true identity from Katum in advance, he would probably have been confused for a short time.
Wanda, like Bruce, doesn't like to talk much.
Only Pietro and the Baron were chatting, and occasional laughter would break out, as if there was a sense of mutual agreement between the two sides.
"Oh, if you hadn't told me I wouldn't have noticed!"
The baron clapped his hands in the middle of his conversation, with an extremely annoyed look on his face, "Why did I make you stand here for so long? Come on, come on, sit down!"
He asked the three children to sit on the sofa and sat at the other end.
Dr. Lister had left, and was replaced by a man dressed as a butler who brought tea.
"As soon as I saw you three children, I felt very close to you."
The baron picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said, "Once upon a time, I had the same look as you."
coming!
Bruce's heart moved, and he was finally going to get to the point.
Speaking of which, the situation has not shown anything strange until now.
Baron Strucker was very kind and treated the three children like his elders. He did not mention any super power experiments, nor did he mention any allegiance to Hydra.
It seemed like he asked Bruce and others to come just to chat.
And now, the big one is finally here.
At this moment, Pietro showed his natural talent for supporting the audience. When he heard the Baron's sigh, he immediately said, "What's that look?"
"The look of revenge."
The baron smiled slightly, "Whether you or Wanda, you have come to this place for revenge. I see the desire for revenge in your eyes!"
Then he suddenly pointed at Bruce.
"And you, Bruce, have a much deeper temperament than either of them."
He sighed and said, "You are not born for revenge, but revenge itself!"
Hearing this, Katum patted Bruce on the head and said, "Beautiful! Ave, his judgment of you is so accurate!"
This is simply prophecy!
After hearing the Baron's evaluation of Bruce, Pietro and Wanda looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Bruce is revenge itself?
I can’t tell!
Normally, people just feel that Bruce has a mean mouth and always mentions the parents of orphans in front of them, but others can't be angry with him because Bruce is also an orphan.
This situation is like black people shouting that word at black people.
Now, after hearing what the Baron said, Bruce also has extremely painful memories, and they are deeper than theirs?
Didn't he just lose his parents?
On the other hand, Bruce remained calm and agreed with the Baron's evaluation.
"You're absolutely right."
Bruce said, "Sometimes, I really feel that my situation is extremely bad, but I don't know what's going on. Now after listening to you, it's like the clouds have been cleared and the sun has been shining!"
"Hahaha! Because you are too young and don't know how to hide, that's why I saw it."
The baron laughed and said, "Bruce, I know your pain. It's hard to bear, but it doesn't matter. Now that you are here, I will find a way to redeem you!"
He is like a spiritual mentor, imparting life experience to his three children.
What surprised Bruce was that the Baron did not let them dwell too much on hatred. Instead, he asked them to open their hearts, move on from hatred and realize their own value in life.
"You are children raised by Hydra. If you can work for Hydra, you can certainly realize your own life value!"
The baron said, "Hey! There happens to be a task I want to assign to you now."
"What mission?" Pietro asked immediately.
"To the United States!"
Baron said, "Join SHIELD and become a teenage agent!"
Bruce suddenly frowned.
Wait, this isn't going the right way?
Why did you suddenly go to the United States?
Isn't he here to do scientific research?
