The first half of 2009 was spent in a very delicate atmosphere.
The people of New York seem to have forgotten what happened six months ago.
They are still busy with their lives, just like no matter what is good or bad, everything will pass in time.
forgotten.
Or be remembered first and then forgotten.
But in the seemingly calm city, some things are no longer as good as before, and what happened in the past makes the world never return to the past.
Just as the relationship between mutants and humans is tense again, although the two sides are still very restrained, a memorial commemorating the dead has been erected on a street in Queens.
It was to commemorate the 179 innocent mutants who died in the chaos in New York.
Everyone knows who killed those mutants.
But under the circumstances at that time, it was also difficult for them to blame the perpetrators.
Another example is the New York Heroes Association...
The once-popular organization has become a thing of the past.
In the second month after the New York disaster subsided, although many supporters petitioned the government, the association and its branches in other cities still announced their dissolution.
In addition to the heroes controlled in the disaster brought indelible destruction to the city.
In addition to the self-blame of the heroes themselves.
There are more profound factors at work in this matter.
After all, this organization is a semi-official organization. After the extinction of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the new organization Tianyan will take over the defense of supernatural events in North America, the necessity of this organization will be greatly reduced.
Sky Eye will have a very different attitude from SHIELD towards superpowers.
Or more clearly.
Amanda Waller's attitude towards superhumans is not the same as that of Merlin Riley.
For people outside the New York area, too many things have happened in the past six months.
The Colorado evacuation, which lasted more than four months, ended just over a month ago.
Those who were evacuated from the infection prevention area were assigned to live elsewhere.
And with them spreading all over the country, there are all kinds of sensational gossip.
About raccoon city, about viruses, about zombies, about biohazard...
and many more.
These six months, at least in this continent, is really not peaceful.
"I am back."
In the cemetery outside of New York, Commander Maria Hill standing in front of a tombstone said softly:
"Sorry I came a little late, but there are many things over Raccoon City..."
The thinner commander was wearing a black trench coat than he was half a year ago.
The original short hair is also long, and the long chestnut hair is flying in the warm wind that has been piggybacked.
She put her hands in her pockets and looked at the crude tombstone in front of her eyes.
The area was cleaned very well, and when Hill came, there were already a few white flowers in front of the tombstone.
There are small cards on the flowers, which read:
"Thanks to the raven."
This should have been sent by the people who were taken to the sulphur port in the disaster six months ago.
At that time, the Brotherhood of Assassins used the name of the raven to suppress the executives of the heterogeneous reserve, forcing them to open the road to Sulphur Port, and let the panicked people go to take refuge.
The number of people in that group was probably over a hundred thousand, and they were told that the raven had protected them.
The clown uploaded some of the information in the big database to the Internet before he died. Although the official quickly cleared the information, the news that the mysterious raven is Merlin Riley has spread.
Officials did not deny this.
After that, the citizens will always send flowers in front of the tombstone of Merlin.
This is grateful.
"They didn't forget you."
Hill looked at the flowers swaying in the wind. She smiled and said:
"Someone still has some conscience, right?"
The commander reached out and stroked the cold tombstone in front of her. She closed her eyes and said softly:
"I know, you must still worry about the raccoon city..."
"Don't worry, the innocent people over there have been rescued. They have been placed in a new place and started a new life."
"The city was abandoned, the surrounding mountains and plains were also blocked, and the primary infected were almost cleared, but some alienated monsters were hiding in the ruins and mountains."
Hill was like reporting to Merlin, she said:
"Some people are still there to prevent them from running out of chaos."
"Oh, yes, 1 month ago, I disbanded S.D.O.L.D...."
"Those people stayed there for more than 5 months because of your orders. We also sacrificed some companions, but fortunately the task was finally completed."
"A lot of people don’t want to go. I don’t think they miss the danger of raccoon city. No one wants to stay there. I think they just don’t want to go back to the world of ordinary people..."
"We and them are out of place after all."
Hill chuckled, she was afraid of photographing the tombstone, she said:
"I introduced the guys who were reluctant to leave to other departments. They were all very sought-after. Merlin, the monster-hunting agents you cultivated were like sweets and robbed by others."
"Some people went to the Heavenly Eye Club, some people went to the FBI and CIA, some people were recruited by the Ministry of Defense, some demon hunters on the European side also took some agents, and some people chose to join the Magic Parliament and the British Ministry of Magic. "
"You don't need to worry about everyone's livelihood, everyone has a new future."
"There are those who remain, including me, you don't need to worry about our lives. After the official end of the assistance, Blacklight Investment Company and Wayne Group took over the assistance to us."
Hill says:
"We, from an official organization to a private research organization..."
"Those of your friends are very energetic. We have been there much more than in SHIELD."
"Daimon, the one who is always mixed with you, I hope we can develop a special vaccine to solve some of the things that happen in hell."
"Well, look at what I am saying now, Merlin, Half Demon, Hell..."
"I am no longer an ordinary person, just like you."
Hill smiled. She withdrew her finger and flicked her long hair. She said:
"Stark gave me a senior position in his group, but I declined him."
"Colson also rejected the solicitations from Wayne Industries and Lex Group. He was stubborn and stubborn. He said he would never leave there without your order..."
"Me too, Merlin."
Hill sighed. She put her hand in her pocket. She looked at the tombstone and remained silent for a few seconds. Eventually, she said:
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry..."
"Just a bit lonely..."
"You will be back, right?"
"You won't keep me waiting, right?"
Hill's voice swayed in the wind, no one answered her, only the rustling sound.
"He won't."
After a few seconds, another woman said behind Hill:
"He will not leave those who miss him and love him, he will not before, nor will he."
Hill turned around and saw that Ms. Carol was approaching her, who had a bouquet of white flowers in her hand, and it seemed that she was also worshipping Merlin.
Hill was a little flustered when he saw Carol.
It was like being accidentally smashed by his wife when cheating with her husband.
Although this description is not so...
appropriate.
"I know he has many lovers..."
Carol was calm, she said:
"Are you one of them?"
"I'm not!"
Hill immediately retorted, she said:
"We are just colleagues, friends. I have absolutely nothing to do with him."
"colleague?"
Carol placed the flower in front of the tombstone. She stood up and glanced at Hill. She said:
"It doesn't feel like it, but it doesn't matter."
Carol stood beside Hill, she whispered:
"Compared to the question of how much emotional debt he has caused, I just want him to come back quickly... The house is almost overturned. If he doesn't come back, he will have a big deal."
"Ok?"
Hill gave Carol a surprised look, and she asked:
"Is it Merlin's sisters?"
"Correct."
Carol said helplessly:
"Very bad girls. They are planning something, they don't tell me, but they sneak out at night... playing some cross-dressing fights in the city."
"I heard that in recent days, seven executive officers have been assassinated in New York's heterogeneous reserve."
Hill blinked, and she said:
"They did it?"
"Not at all."
Carol said calmly:
"After Merlin left, the New York City aliens were very restless. I have read the documents in the past. The Ravens have suppressed them too much in the past ten years, so they are now rebounding."
"Those dead executives are unwilling to continue to cooperate with Tianyan who is trying to control the situation, and they have a serious tendency to walk alone. They have begun to openly violate the constraints set by Merlin... It is also expected that the children are filled with indignation."
"They killed the most joyful of the four jumps."
Captain Marvel's mouth curled up with a smile, she said:
"Being precise and moving quickly, the waves were suppressed before the storm blew, and the Supreme Family also cooperated with them."
"The Grand Duke, who also seems to be a little confused with Merlin, also cooperates with the children's actions."
"It is indeed Merlin's sister...very good."
"What about the remaining three?"
Hill flicked her hair and she asked:
"The remaining three executive officers are... oh, I know, you killed, right?"
Hill narrowed her eyes. She said:
"Although I haven't been back to New York for a long time, I still have some friends here. Listening to them, you are very fond of Merlin's sisters. In the past six months, you helped them deal with a lot of trouble."
"spoil?"
Carol shook her head and she sighed. She said:
"How can it be called doting?"
"The children have lost their brothers because of this world. This is what the world owes them. Those aliens dare to put their goals on them. They are looking for their own way of death, aren't they?"
"not to mention..."
Carol looked at the tombstone in front of her and said:
"I also don't want that Merlin's legacy of peace is destroyed."
"He wants to see peace and order. This is a trivial request, and I have never refused him very much..."
"You just said that the children are planning something dangerous?"
Hill asked:
"Aren't you going to stop?"
"Why should I stop?"
Carol turned to look at Hill. She said:
"Some anger can't be buried in the heart. The longer you suppress it, the deeper those demon entanglement."
"When you are not in a hurry, you will make a roar of war, and explode the flames that have accumulated in your heart."
"Only in this way can they win peace of mind and continue to live their lives."
"Children's revenge for their loved ones, this is a natural thing, what reason do I have to stop?"
"Aren't you afraid of them causing trouble?"
Hill says:
"Aren't you afraid they provoke someone they can't afford?"
"Can't afford it?"
Carol pursed her lips and said:
"Relax, Maria Hill, many people are paying attention to these children, not just me, please believe me, in this world..."
"No one they can't afford!"
Carol's words made Hill blink, but she didn't refute.
There was a moment of silence between the two. Carol raised her wrist and looked at the time. She said to Hill:
"I might have to "go out" in a moment. Now I have some time. Do you want to have two drinks? Have a chat."
"In what name? Ms. Carol."
Hill says:
"I have to rush back to Raccoon City this afternoon. If I'm going to be late, there must be some reason."
"Just in his name."
Carol pointed to Merlin’s tombstone. She said:
"I also want to hear the story between you and my boyfriend."
"This sounds weird."
Hill shrugged. She said to Carol:
"Go to Josie Bar?"
"Well, just go there."
Two women with complicated relationships walked out of the cemetery.
In the sun, a black car was waiting for them there.
After the two ladies got into the car, the car made a silent turn and then merged into the city.
But a few minutes before the quiet cemetery calmed down, another visitor arrived.
Wearing a small suit, fishnet socks and high boots, Miss Zatana, wearing a magician's top hat, also walked here with a bouquet of flowers.
She looked at the flowers in front of the tombstone of Merlin. She blinked in surprise, then sniffed again.
There is still a good smell of perfume on the spot, there is more than one...
Merlin...
Are you still worried about so many girls when you die?
What a lucky guy.
