Overwatch invades American comics

Chapter 113 I'm going to buy oranges

As far as William can remember, his mother died of illness when he was only five years old.

When he was sixteen, his father killed someone in a bar because he lost money in gambling and was put in prison, which seemed to be in a prison in New Mexico.

So he asked Coulson for help and wanted to go to the prison to visit his father whom he had never met.

To be honest, William has not seen his father since he traveled through time. After all, he is not from this world and has no feelings for his father. He is so far away and has no chance to come.

Moreover, before he traveled through time, William had not visited his father since his father was imprisoned. In the blink of an eye, four or five years had passed.

With the help of SHIELD, it was easy to find a prison. Besides, SHIELD had already investigated William's family background and even knew which cell in which prison his father was imprisoned.

Of course, it was impossible for him to have a warm chat with his father in a small room. Even S.H.I.E.L.D. had to follow the procedures and give William a chance to visit him in prison, but the time could be longer.

In this way, after William came to the Marvel world, he finally met his father, Franz Liszt, whom he had never seen before.

They sat face to face with a piece of soundproof glass between them. Franz on the other side of the glass had gray hair and a haggard face, looking much older than William remembered.

Although William saw Franz, he did not have much feeling in his heart. It might be because he had never seen him in person before and now he felt that the other party was a little strange.

But his father's name is also very interesting, Franz Liszt, if he remembers correctly, he is the world-famous king of piano.

Could it be that his grandparents gave his father this name in order to make him a pianist?

William held the phone, and Franz on the other end of the phone remained silent, looking at William. Perhaps this was the communication between father and son. After a while, Franz said, "You're here. How are you doing recently?"

"It's fine." William shrugged.

"How is Tom?" Franz continued.

"He's pretty good too. He does well in school, and I give him living expenses every month."

Tom, whose full name is Tom Lister, is William's younger brother. He is currently studying in another city and is a mysterious high school student who only exists in the introduction of his family background.

To be honest, since William traveled to the Marvel world, he has never visited his brother except for giving him living expenses every month. Of course, he did this to protect his brother's safety.

"What do you do now?" Franz asked after thinking for a while.

“Working in a pizza shop.” William thought, of course this is just a superficial job. You’ll be scared to death if I tell you my actual job.

"Have you a girlfriend?"

"Not yet." William curled his lips and said, "But I already have someone I like."

Brother Franz, are you investigating the household registration or having awkward conversations with relatives during the New Year?

What kind of job is it? How much does it earn? Do you have a girlfriend? I haven’t seen your son for so many years. Don’t you have anything else you want to say?
The atmosphere became awkward again. Just when William was thinking about how to end this visit, Franz sighed deeply and said, "Hey, William, I know you have been blaming me for so many years. During my time in prison, I have also been reflecting on myself. Actually, I have something that I haven't told you..."

William didn't say anything. He felt that Franz was quite pitiful. His wife died so early, leaving behind two sons for him to take care of. He was also sent to prison for killing someone in a bar.

Before he traveled through time, William had never visited his father. Maybe there was some misunderstanding.

"What happened back then?" William asked curiously. "I'm sorry I kept it a secret from you." Franz said with a regretful look, "Your mother didn't die of illness. You were still young at the time and didn't understand many things. But now you've grown up, and I should tell you these things."

William originally thought there would be some shocking secret, but in fact there was a riot in the past. After all, Brooklyn is a dangerous place, and it is not surprising that a riot occurred.

During the riot, my mother was hit by a car and was taken to the hospital, where she died shortly afterwards.

William was only five years old at the time, and Tom was only two years old. They always thought their mother was sick. It was not until the day their mother died that they knew their mother had left them forever.

Franz, who was heartbroken by the loss of his wife, began to drink heavily, his temper became increasingly rude, and his relationship with his children was not good. In order to raise his two children, Franz kept changing jobs in order to get a higher salary.

By chance, he came to New Mexico through the introduction of a friend, where he found a new job. Although the work location was far away, the salary was very good.

The two children entered boarding school very early, and he would send a lot of living expenses to the two sons every month. Until Franz was in a bar, until he lost money in gambling and got drunk and had an argument with someone, beat someone to death and was put in prison.

After Franz was imprisoned, William had to take care of his younger brother Tom. Later, he worked in a pizza shop and also had to send money to his younger brother who was studying in another city.

No wonder William never went to visit his father. Perhaps he had always been resentful of Franz in his heart.

It seems that both American and Chinese parents do not understand one thing, that is, what children need most when they are growing up is not money, but parental companionship and education.

Or love.

"Okay, let the past be the past." William scratched his head and said, "I will try to visit you every month in the future."

Hearing William say this, Franz's eyes were excited. He couldn't help but stand up and said, "William, are you really willing to forgive me?"

"I can understand your pain back then." William said with a smile, "But you have to promise me that you will behave well in prison. If you behave well in the future, you may be able to get out earlier."

William walked out of the prison and shook his head. His mother was hit by a car and died, his father was in prison, he had always been so poor that he had to eat dirt, and he didn't even have a girlfriend... William's life was really miserable before he traveled through time.

"How about it? How do you feel after not seeing your father for so many years?" Coulson asked curiously.

William spread his hands and said, "I don't feel anything. I feel nothing inside. I even want to eat oranges. But, Coulson, you have investigated my family background. Do you know about the riot that killed my mother?"

"Are you talking about the riots in Brooklyn more than ten years ago?" Coulson frowned and said, "Our SHIELD database doesn't have detailed records of this incident, but if you really want to check it, we should be able to find it."

William nodded. Since there was a gang like the Skull Gang in Brooklyn, he felt that the riot back then must not be that simple.

After leaving the prison, William and his companions continued on their journey. When they passed a fruit stand, William wanted to get off the car. He said to the two people in the car, "You stay in the car and don't move. I'm going to buy some oranges."

Coulson and Barton were both confused. If you want to buy oranges, just buy oranges. Why do you have to say it specifically?
William rarely sees people eating oranges in the United States, but this fruit is also sold here. To be honest, William's favorite fruit in China is oranges, so he plans to buy more.

Soon, William came over with a bag of oranges. He gave half to Coulson and Barton. Barton took out two oranges and said, "I'll only eat two. The rest are for Coulson."

Seeing the sweet smile on William's face, Coulson was a little surprised. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was.
