A crossover movie viewing experience, kicking off Marvel's Endgame.

"Ha, so what if he's the famous Captain Rogers of the Avengers? He still has to obey."

The captain of the armed forces felt a surge of pride seeing Captain Rogers obediently about to kneel down; every member of Hydra harbored a strange obsession with Captain Rogers.

Just as the armed forces outside thought Captain Rogers would obediently surrender, Captain Rogers, who was already half-crouched, suddenly turned around and slammed his shield into the glass on the left side of the elevator. The hard glass shattered instantly, and the cable outside the glass was also severed by the shield.

The moment the elevator cable was cut, the elevator, which had been stationary, began to descend rapidly, and Captain Rogers immediately crouched down.

The armed troops outside the elevator were stunned by Captain Rogers' series of fluid and skillful maneuvers, clearly not expecting him to do such a thing.

After the elevator descended a certain distance, its braking system activated, and four metal supports extended from its four corners to firmly stabilize the elevator, which had been rapidly descending due to the loss of one cable.

[After realizing the elevator had stopped descending, Captain Rogers stood up and pried open the elevator doors with his hands. As soon as the doors opened, he saw a squad of armed soldiers approaching. Captain Rogers immediately closed the doors again, because the braking system had already activated, and cutting the cables to descend was impossible. Furthermore, without cables on both sides, the descent speed would be significantly slower than before.]

Captain Rogers suddenly remembered the view he had seen when he entered the elevator earlier. He walked to the right side of the elevator and looked down; there was a huge glass skylight below.

"Captain Rogers isn't thinking of just jumping off like that, is he?"

Kohei Imamura watched as Captain Rogers looked down from the screen, and it seemed that this was the only option left. However, jumping from this height, more than 20 stories high, would likely cause him to experience a strong sense of numbness, and might even result in the loss of his lower body. While he could heal himself, Captain Rogers did not.

"They'll probably jump, since Captain Rogers only has this one option right now, and it seems he's planning to use the glass skylight as a buffer."

"And don't forget that Captain Rogers' shield is no ordinary shield; it can even withstand Thor's hammer."

Kitahara Iori said, but deep down she was still surprised that Captain Rogers might jump, after all, the height of 20 floors was still frightening.

"Surrender, Rogers, open the door."

[At that moment, the armed forces that Captain Rogers had seen prying open the elevator door arrived at the elevator entrance and shouted at Rogers.]

"You have nowhere to turn."

[Regardless of the shouts from outside, Captain Rogers remained unmoved. He tightened his grip on his shield, retreated to the left side of the elevator, took a deep breath, and then sprinted towards the right side of the elevator, placing the shield in front of him.]

After crashing through the glass, Captain Rogers began his rapid descent. He tried his best to curl his body inside the shield, but the shield was only so big. Captain Rogers tucked his torso inside the shield, while his legs were sticking out high to avoid a direct hit on the ground.

"Bang! Crash!"

Captain Rogers, bracing himself with his shield, smashed through the glass skylight below. The commotion drew the attention of everyone on the ground, but the skylight only slowed his descent; it didn't stop him. After breaking through the skylight, Captain Rogers crashed directly to the ground, landing with a loud thud due to the shield hitting the ground.

Despite the shield's protection, Captain Rogers felt a tingling pain throughout his body, but it was still within his tolerance. He scrambled to his feet and, amidst the shocked stares of passersby, quickly fled towards the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters garage. He needed to get back his motorcycle; otherwise, he couldn't escape on foot.

In the monitoring room on the other side, the Hydra members, led by Koichi Fujito, were astonished by Captain Rogers' abilities as they watched the footage displayed on the monitor.

"Are you kidding me?"

"That's over twenty stories high! It's a miracle they didn't fall and break into pieces. But Captain Rogers is still running and jumping! I think only a Level 4 Beta mutant in Hydra's mutant army could match Captain Rogers in terms of physical ability."

Captain Rogers' ability to do this wasn't solely due to his superior physical abilities; the primary factor was his shield, which was forged from vibranium.

"Vibranium again? What exactly does this metal look like?"

"How come it's so powerful? It would be a hero-level weapon even in a Western fantasy world."

Looking at the shield in Captain Rogers' hand on the light screen, Gokou Ruri exclaimed in surprise. It could not only protect someone from falling from the 20th floor, but it was also incredibly strong. Gokou Ruri knew that if it were just hard, it wouldn't be able to save a person. If it were just hard, the shockwave would have immobilized Captain Rogers or even killed him on the spot. It must have some kind of absorption function. Of course, its hardness was also top-notch, since it could go toe-to-toe with Thor's hammer Mjolnir.

"He went to the garage. Close the bridge immediately."

After a brief moment of surprise at Captain Rogers' abilities, Koichi Fujito hurriedly gave the order: if Captain Rogers escaped, capturing him would be significantly more difficult than at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, and Captain Rogers would also find help.

[After Hiroshi Fujito gave the order, the personnel in the control center on the other side immediately closed the bridge. However, just as the bridge was closing, Captain Rogers rode his motorcycle and flew directly over the closing gate.]

345: Rogers: I'll kill you seven times in and seven times out.

Captain Rogers, on his motorcycle, floored the throttle and sped off at top speed.

Captain Rogers, with his keen eyes, noticed rows of spiked barriers rising up along the road ahead. The spikes, gleaming with a chilling metallic sheen under the light, were pointed directly at him. If it were just one row, it wouldn't be so bad, but these spikes stretched for a full 10 meters, spaced 2 meters apart. At that moment, a Quinjet—the same fighter Captain Rogers and his team had been in while fighting the Chitauri—flew in from S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters behind them.

The Quinjet turned around and faced Captain Rogers directly, shouting "Stop!" As it did so, a six-barreled machine gun extended from below, its sights fixed on Captain Rogers.

"Captain Rogers, surrender immediately."

Captain Rogers, of course, couldn't stop. If he stopped and surrendered, he would surely die. His response was the roar of his motorcycle.

Seeing that Captain Rogers showed no sign of stopping, the Quinjet pilot issued a final warning, and the machine guns began to spin, clearly preparing to fire.

"Repeat, surrender immediately."

Seeing that Captain Rogers still had no intention of stopping, the machine gun, which had been spinning slowly, began to spin rapidly, accompanied by a torrential downpour of bullets aimed at him.

The bullets cratered the road, kicking up clouds of dust.

Even at top speed on the motorcycle, Captain Rogers maintained his composure, dodging left and right. As he closed the distance, he freed one hand to retrieve the shield from his back and hurled it at the right propeller of the Quinjet. Despite both he and the enemy being moving at high speed, and the enemy being at a higher altitude, Captain Rogers's shield still accurately struck the Quinjet's right propeller.

The propeller, struck by the shield, instantly stopped working while continuously emitting sparks and black smoke.

The Quinjet, now without its right propeller, was struggling to control itself, its nose lowered. Seizing the opportunity, Captain Rogers abruptly slammed on the brakes, throwing him off. He lunged at the Quinjet, which was now nose-down, and after several rolls, landed on its right side, pulling his shield from within the propeller.

[The instant the shield was pulled out, the previously malfunctioning propeller resumed operation. The Quinjet, which had been tilted back due to one propeller failure, lifted its head again, though still wobbling from side to side, clearly indicating severe damage to the right propeller. Captain Rogers was violently thrown from the aircraft, nearly falling out, but fortunately, he used his shield to slam into the plane and stabilize himself.]

[Then, Captain Rogers gritted his teeth, exerted all his strength, and performed a powerful somersault, flipping himself back onto the Quinjet. While flipping, he also managed to pull out his shield. He then flung the shield out, and the flying shield ejected, damaging the Quinjet's left exhaust nozzle before bouncing onto the right exhaust nozzle, damaging that one as well.]

[Then Captain Rogers quickly ran up, caught the shield in mid-air, donned it, and landed smoothly with a classic superhero move. The Quinjet crashed into the lake, and Captain Rogers, like a hurdler, easily leaped over the spikes and escaped.]

"Can you drive like that?"

"While driving, I also masturbated."

Conan Edogawa sent the text message to Heiji Hattori on the other side. Conan Edogawa was naturally teasing Heiji Hattori. Of course, Conan Edogawa also knew that Heiji Hattori drove his motorcycle very... wildly. He had ridden on Heiji Hattori's motorcycle when chasing a fugitive, and the driving skills of that motorcycle had scared him.

Soon, Conan Edogawa received a reply from Heiji Hattori.

"Since you're so eager to know, then next time I'll show you how, and you'll see if I can do it or not."

"Listen up, everyone."

"Whatever you have on hand right now, cancel it all. We're on high alert now."

"Notify the transportation department to turn all intersections in the Special Administrative Region red, close all runways at the nearby airport, and put all city surveillance cameras onto this display screen."

"I'll track all electronic communication devices—phones, tablets, computers—anything I can find. If someone posts anything about Rogers on Weibo, I need to know immediately."

In the monitoring room, Koichi Fujito angrily slammed his fist on the table as Rogers escaped. He couldn't believe Rogers had gotten away; what were those guys even good for? Fujito immediately called a meeting with everyone in the monitoring room and issued orders.

"Excuse my bluntness, but if S.H.I.E.L.D. is pursuing Captain Rogers, we have the right to know why."

The female agent, disguised as a nurse and assigned to the apartment opposite Captain Rogers, said that, contrary to Rogers' expectations, this female agent was not his enemy.

[Kouichi looked at the guy who asked the question, but before he could say anything, a voice came from the side.]

"Because that guy lied to you."

[That voice was indeed that of Shinomiya Hikari, and since it was Shinomiya Hikari who spoke, his words were not directed at Fujito Koichi, but at Captain Rogers.]

"Rogers knows the cause of Chief King's death."

"His very first words were a reversal of the Heavenly Stems."

"These two must be the main villains this time."

"Now, you're really out of the game."

Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the Shinomiya Hikari in the light screen and thought to herself, "He doesn't seem to have a single bit of sympathy for his older brother."

--------

"yeah!"

Shinomiya Seiryu hadn't been this happy since the day he was born. With his eldest and third brothers out of the picture, the position of head of the Shinomiya family was practically his for the taking. Shinomiya Seiryu, beaming with joy, poured himself a glass of wine, intending to see what his eldest brother, Shinomiya Komikazuchi, would do—the worse the better.

--------

"If Qinglong is like that too, wouldn't I have a chance to reclaim the position of head of the Shinomiya family?"

Looking at the four palaces in the light screen, Shi Gong Yunying thought that as long as the three of them returned to the same starting line, there was still a chance for everything.

346: The Winter Soldier

[Shinomiya Hiromitsu's statement immediately surprised the non-Hydra members present, while the Hydra members remained calm. Those non-Hydra members, who had been wondering why Captain Rogers was being captured, now felt as if they had heard Iron Man Zhuge Cong switch to making baby products.]

After all, while Shinomiya Hikari's words shocked them, they weren't enough to convince them instantly; they simply sounded too far-fetched.

"They know perfectly well, but they're unwilling to tell us."

"I know everyone is very upset about this result."

"But Captain Rogers is currently a wanted fugitive by S.H.I.E.L.D."

[Shinomiya Kōkō, hands in his pockets, looked at the crowd and spoke, mainly addressing those who weren't part of Hydra.]

"Therefore, I hope everyone will work diligently and not cover for Captain Rogers because of his past actions. Otherwise, we can only consider him an accomplice."

Meanwhile, Captain Rogers, now a fugitive wanted by S.H.I.E.L.D. by Shinomiya Hiroki, arrived at the hospital, still wearing a hoodie. He had hidden the USB drive King had given him in a secluded spot—inside a vending machine. Captain Rogers had deliberately placed the drive at the very back of a long, narrow shelf that looked unpopular.

When Captain Rogers arrived at the vending machine, he found that everything on the shelf was gone, including the USB drive. Just as he felt a chill run down his spine at losing the USB drive King had entrusted to him, he saw Black Widow Vermouth and Gylvia through the vending machine's glass.

Captain Rogers put his hands on their shoulders and immediately pushed them into the ward opposite the vending machine.

[As soon as Captain Rogers entered the room, he immediately asked Black Widow, Vermouth, a question.]

"Where did it go?"

[Captain Rogers wasn't asking where she and Gylvia went, but rather where the USB drive he'd put in the vending machine was. Captain Rogers was pretty sure Black Widow Vermouth had taken it.]

"A safe place."
