"A soldier lost to the river of history?!"
Hearing this, Tao Wen immediately reacted, understanding who Coulson was talking about.
He also understood why Coulson had shown him the World War II files.
Captain America, the most famous superhero of World War II!
It was from that time that the term "superhero" came into being.
He was a symbol of an era.
He also understood why Coulson was so excited. Captain America was Coulson's object of worship and the reason Coulson joined S.H.I.E.L.D. to become an agent.
"I think you should know who it is. Just today, Tony called, saying that his company accidentally discovered Captain America in a glacier. He will be excavated in the afternoon. Our mission this time is to watch him be successfully excavated and then bring him back to S.H.I.E.L.D."
Coulson said.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go."
Tao Wen immediately said to Coulson, already a little impatient to see this legendary figure. He also wanted to farm some fragments; he was only one fragment away from obtaining new equipment.
"Don't rush. The helicopter won't arrive for another two hours."
Coulson continued drinking his coffee.
"Then let's go have lunch."
Tao Wen pointed to the building across from the office, "This time, it's on me."
"Of course, I haven't tasted those delicious foods in a long time."
Hearing this, Coulson's eyes lit up. Calculating the time, he realized they could just make it.
"I'll call and make a reservation right away."
Coulson immediately pulled out his phone and started calling the restaurant owner.
"Alright, I'll tidy up a bit too."
Tao Wen finished his coffee, ate a few dried fruits, and put the coffee machine away. He then tidied up his office, making it neat.
Only then did he leave with Coulson.
"The sun is really nice today."
Stepping outside, gazing at the azure sky and the blazing sun, Tao Wen couldn't help but exclaim.
A gentle breeze caressed his face, lifting his spirits.
Just like the last time, the table was already laden with food when they arrived.
The food this time was a little different, mainly pasta dishes.
"Don't let the name 'French Restaurant' fool you," Coulson explained. "The chef here is incredibly skilled in other areas too. I heard he traveled all over the country when he was younger, and learned a lot from some very unique masters."
"Really?" Tao Wen replied, a hint of surprise in his voice, and began to sample the food.
The taste was indeed exquisite, melting in his mouth and exploding with flavor, delighting his taste buds.
At this moment, he was just like Coulson, no longer wanting to say another word, simply savoring the unique food.
\n\n
As they ate, the sunlight from outside shone down, bathing them in its warmth.
\n\n
At that moment, it was as if time had stopped.
\n\n
"Cheers."
\n\n
After enjoying a portion of the delicious food, Tao Wen filled their glasses with the special "Happy Fatty Water" and clinked glasses with Coulson.
\n\n
Feeling the unique bubbles expanding in their mouths and bodies, the two were completely captivated.
\n\n
"How do you two feel?"
\n\n
After their meal, the owner brought a pot of green tea from the East and asked them with a smile.
"Yes, your skills are truly amazing!"
Tao Wen praised sincerely; he wasn't lying.
"I'm glad you enjoyed it."
"By the way, I also have a Peace Talisman I brought back from out of town that can protect my guests."
The owner brought over two earthy-yellow Peace Talismans and handed them to the two of them.
"Thank you."
Coulson looked at the Peace Talisman with surprise, clearly liking it very much; he spoke to the owner.
Tao Wen gently touched the Peace Talisman and discovered that it wasn't from H Country but from Too Country, carrying a unique fragrance.
He smiled back at the owner. Leaving aside everything else, just the owner's thoughtfulness alone was enough to ensure his business would thrive.
"See you later."
After Tao Wen swiped his card, he and Coulson returned to S.H.I.E.L.D.
The sun was shining brightly, the spring sunlight particularly clear and warm.
The two stood at the gate, quietly enjoying this moment of post-meal tranquility, neither of them speaking.
Da-da-da-da.
After a few minutes, a sound came from afar. When they looked up, they saw the familiar helicopter, constantly flying towards them from above.
The two stood up.
At that moment, the helicopter in the sky landed right in front of them.
"Let's go."
Coulson was the first to climb into the helicopter, and Tao Wen leaped up after him.
"I really envy you."
Coulson couldn't help but look at Tao Wen enviously. He also wanted to jump up like that, but he simply couldn't.
"Stick to exercising every day, and you can do it too."
Tao Wen gently patted Coulson's shoulder, speaking earnestly.
He couldn't help but think of the influence of Saitama-sensei. Not many people could achieve that soaring jump, straight up into the clouds.
The helicopter flew smoothly as Coulson and Tao Wen both picked up their phones to check Twitter.
Tao Wen couldn't help but look at his own mentions.
He was surprised to find that Twitter had even created a special section just for him.
He wanted to see what people were saying about him.
"Steel Plate Man, what the hell is that? Can't you come up with something better?"
"Steel Plate Man? That name is so lame. Rebar Man sounds better!"
"Seriously, Steel Plate Man? Why not Debater Man?"
"Change the name! Change the name! Everyone reply and boost this, make sure he sees it!"
"…"
Tao Wen was a bit speechless as he looked at the comments. He hadn't expected them to all be complaints about his title. He wanted to use a screen full of blood-spurting emojis.
But after searching for a while, he realized that function wasn't available, so he gave up.
"It seems I really need to change my name."
Tao Wen scratched his nose awkwardly. He guessed that Jenny's interview with him was probably related to this.
After a long flight, he'd been thinking about it. He'd finally decided on something: to use an Eastern name.
As for what to call himself, that would take some more thought.
"Tao, we're here."
Coulson reminded Tao Wen, while also putting on a thick down jacket. The temperature in the Arctic was really low; even with the down jacket, he still felt his teeth chattering.
"Alright, let's go."
Tao Wen was still wearing short sleeves, showing no fear of the temperature drop. The Thorn Armor not only changed the hardness of his body, but also greatly enhanced his physique. Neither high nor low temperatures could affect him.
Watching Tao Wen jump out of the helicopter, Coulson's eyes flashed with deep envy. This further strengthened his training plan.
"Sir."
After the two got off the helicopter, a man in a protective suit immediately walked over and called out respectfully.
The man's eyes landed on Tao Wen, and he immediately showed a strong look of surprise. He knew that the outdoor temperature had reached tens of degrees below zero. Not to mention a person, even steel would crack from the cold. Tao Wen really shocked him a little; who was this person?
There didn't seem to be such an existence in S.H.I.E.L.D.?
Had he missed some information because he hadn't been back for a month?
"Where is it?"
Tao Wen looked around, and all he could see was vast emptiness, nothing but ice and ice chunks.
"Sir, it's right beneath your feet."
The man pointed at the ground.
"Huh?"
Tao Wen and Coulson were slightly taken aback. Then, they looked down and saw a red, white, and blue shield encased in the ice. It was tightly wrapped in the ice.
