A week later, on the lawn of the White House, the government's sudden press conference was about to begin.
The reporters who were invited over realized that most of the people were wearing medals. The veterans who were wearing World War II military uniforms and those who were not veterans were also old people. They were even more puzzled. They thought to themselves, what the hell is the government doing?
Up until now, they still didn't know what the theme of the press conference was. They only knew that all the major media outlets from all over the world had invited them. It seemed that they wanted to announce to the world that they were 10.
The press conference began on time. The brass band on the stage played the national emblem, the Star-Spangled Banner, and the host went on stage.
" Half a century ago, the nazi empire launched an evil war in an attempt to control the world. At that moment, the American hero who represented freedom and justice stood up.”
" He participated in the war for the first time, saved 400 soldiers, helped the allies win the Battle of Italy, and then participated in many battles against the Nazians, including the hellish Normandie Landing. As long as he participated in a battle, it would always end in victory.”
"He is the symbol of victory! He is the spirit of America!"
While the reporters were confused by the host's introduction, the old people were excited and clenched their fists. Some of them stood up unconsciously.
"Now, let's welcome the hero of the United States, Captain America, Steve Roger.”
The news was like a ripple caused by a stone thrown into the lake. The reporters present instantly boiled over.
Unexpectedly, after the appearance of Hulk and Superman, the great hero of World War II would return to people's sight.
It was no wonder that the people invited were all old people. They had either participated in the European war or watched and listened to this heroic story grow old.
Amidst the passionate music, the protagonist went on stage, which caused a clamor of exclamations.
"It's him! Look, he hasn't aged at all. He's still the same as in his memories!”
"Captain, I went to Omaha Beach with you!”
"He hasn't changed at all, but we've all grown old.”
Some of the old people were in tears, while others looked sad. The reporters didn't have time to pay attention to them, and their cameras were all aimed at Roger.
Although he was constantly being shone on by the cameras, he was not used to it. After becoming a real Captain America, he often toured with a group of girls who showed off their thighs and sold government bonds.
At that time, he was more like an actor than a soldier.
Unfortunately, he wasn't happy to be treated like a celebrity again. On the contrary, when he heard the old people's words and saw their old faces, Steve was a little lost.
The people from back then were all old now, but he was still the same…
If he had a choice, he would rather be like them or die in the ice instead of waking up 70 years later to face an unfamiliar environment and unfamiliar people.
In the words of seventy years later, he belonged to the past, an outdated person.
The host noticed the change in Roger and interrupted him.""I know you are very excited. Considering that Captain has just woken up from a 70-year deep sleep and needs more rest, we will not disturb Captain.”
Roger didn't say anything. He just walked off the stage in silence, not forgetting to look at the old people who were also looking at him.
Back backstage, Roger sat alone in a corner, as quiet as a living corpse.
Although he had previously promised Fei Qiu to return to the world, when he really faced this, he felt that it was a mistake. He should not have returned.
"You don't look too good, Captain.”
Steve raised his head and saw Kao sitting beside him.
After a moment of surprise, Steve greeted politely,""Hello, Mr. El. I heard Agent Coulson mention you. Thank you very much for saving me. Also, just call me Steve. The war is over, and I'm no longer a captain.”
As he spoke, Steve's eyes inadvertently swept over Kao, a subtle emotion flashing in his eyes.
It had been about a week since he woke up. During this time, Nick Fury had arranged for Coulson, the brainless fan of Captain America, to help Steve familiarize himself with the new world of the 21st century.
Through Coulson's description, Steve also learned of the Khal's identity.
An alien suspected to be of the same race as Superman!
Steve certainly knew what Superman represented. Even when he was a teenager, he often stole money from his family with Baki to buy a comic book, so he could be considered a fan of Superman.
However, after he became Captain America, his popularity far surpassed that of Superman, who was only a fictional character, causing the company to suffer heavy losses and close down soon after.
It was precisely because of this that he felt a strange feeling when he looked at the young man beside him who was very likely a relative of Superman.
……
