American comic: Checking in, Gwen in black stockings rolls her eyes.

At least the location of Times Square hasn't changed, although it looks completely different now.

Huge screens and flashing lights were everywhere.

Just as Steve was trying to understand what was happening, a voice came from behind him:

"Welcome to the future, Captain."

Steve turned around abruptly and saw Lin Feng standing a few steps away, smiling calmly.

"Who are you?!"

Steve asked warily, adopting a defensive stance.

0 ······Requesting flowers··· ·······

"What the hell is this place?"

"My name is Lin Feng."

Lin Feng replied in a gentle tone.

"This is New York, but New York in 2010. You've been sleeping in the ice for nearly seventy years, Captain."

Steve's eyes widened in disbelief:

"This is impossible…"

0 ... ....

"I know this is hard to accept."

Lin Feng said.

"But it's true. You crashed Schmidt's plane into an Arctic glacier, and the Super Soldier Serum put you into a dormant state. We found you and brought you back."

Steve shook his head, trying to process the information:

"We? Who are you referring to as 'we'?"

Lin Feng smiled slightly:

"Me, Tony Stark—Howard's son, and..."

He paused deliberately.

"And Bucky."

Steve's expression instantly turned excited:

"No way! Bucky's dead! He fell off the train! Who are you? Don't lie to me!"

"Whether it's true or not, we'll know when we see Bucky."

....superior.

214: Welcome to the 21st century!

Lin Feng said calmly.

“He’s anxiously looking for you at Stark Tower. I can take you to see him if you’d like.”

Steve stared at Lin Feng with suspicion, struggling internally.

Ultimately, hope triumphed over doubt:

"Take me to see him. If you dare to play any tricks..."

"I assure you, there are no tricks."

Lin Feng raised his hands.

"Come with me, Captain."

.

In the lobby of Stark Tower, Bucky paced anxiously back and forth.

Tony sat to the side, his fingers tapping incessantly on the armrest.

Where should he have gone?

Bucky asked, his voice filled with worry.

"He knows nothing about this era!"

"Relax, Lin Feng said he knows where to look."

Tony answered, though he himself seemed somewhat uneasy.

"And to be honest, if I were Rogers, and I woke up after being frozen for seventy years and saw a group of people in white coats surrounding me, I would run away too."

The elevator doors suddenly opened, and Lin Feng stepped out.

Behind him stood Steve Rogers, who looked on warily.

"Steve!"

Bucky immediately stood up, his voice trembling with excitement.

Steve froze, staring at Bucky in disbelief.

That face, though showing signs of weariness and age, was undoubtedly that of his best friend, James Barnes.

"Bucky?"

Steve's voice was almost a whisper.

"This...how is this possible?"

Bucky took a step forward, tears welling in his eyes:

“It’s me, Steve. I can’t believe it either… but we’re all alive.”

Steve slowly walked towards Bucky, reached out and touched his shoulder, as if to confirm that he wasn't hallucinating.

Then, the two of them hugged each other at the same time.

Seventy years seemed to be compressed and surpassed in this moment.

"I thought you were dead."

Steve choked up.

"I watched you fall..."

"I also thought I would never see you again."

Bucky responded, his voice trembling as well.

"But we're all here, old friends."

Tony and Lin Feng stood aside, quietly watching this touching reunion.

Tony cleared his throat:

"Uh, I don't want to interrupt this touching reunion, but maybe we should get the captain a change of clothes? A hospital gown isn't exactly fashionable on the streets of New York..."

Steve then noticed Tony, released Bucky, and curiously sized up the stranger:

"You are…"

"Tony Stark."

Tony reached out his hand.

“Howard’s son. It’s great to finally meet you. My dad has told me a lot about you.”

Steve grabbed Tony's hand in shock:

"Howard's son... My God, it's really been seventy years."

"I'm afraid so, Captain."

Tony nodded.

Welcome to the 21st century.

...

Over the next few days, Steve and Bucky spent a lot of time together, sharing their experiences.

Bucky tells Steve how he was rescued by Hydra and transformed into the Winter Soldier.

Steve then recounted his last memory—

The plane crashes into a glacier, and the confusion upon waking up.

They sat on the balcony of Stark Tower, overlooking the modern New York skyline.

"So, Lin Feng used magic to help you break free from Hydra's control?"

Steve asked, still trying to understand all of this.

.....

215: Hydra? Captain America is stunned!

Bucky nodded:

"Yes. Technology can't completely remove those trigger words, but his magic can."

He paused.

"The world has become much more complex than it was back then, Steve. People with superpowers, aliens, magic..."

"It sounds like science fiction."

Steve shook his head and smiled.

"But aren't we ourselves characters from science fiction novels? Super soldiers and assassins with metal arms."

Bucky laughed:

"Yes."

Steve's expression turned serious.

"Bucky, about what you did as the Winter Soldier... that wasn't your fault."

"I know."

Bucky said in a low voice, though his eyes suggested he didn't quite believe it.

"But those memories remain here."

He pointed to his head.

“Those faces, their screams… I can’t forget them.”

Steve gripped Bucky's shoulder:

"We will face all of this together. Just like we always have."

"Until the end?"

Bucky asked, recalling the vows they made when they were young.

"Until the very end."

Steve answered firmly.

.

Later, Lin Feng and Tony joined them.

The four sat around in the meeting room of Stark Tower, discussing their future plans.

"So, what do you two plan to do?"

Tony asked, pouring everyone a glass of wine.

"The seventy-year holiday is over, what are your plans?"

Steve and Bucky exchanged a glance, both looking somewhat bewildered.
