Still at New Amsterdam Hospital.
At the entrance of the emergency room.
After Gwen saw Sharon Carter being wheeled in for emergency treatment, she sat with Hawk on the chairs outside the door, waiting.
She was a little worried.
"Sharon will be okay, right?"
"She will be."
"Are you sure?"
"Don't worry, even if she dies, her soul belongs to my Netherworld, she can't go to Hell."
"Why?"
"You forgot, didn't I tell you before? I have an agreement with Mephisto, any soul that invokes my name belongs to my Netherworld."
"...Alright."
With Hawk's assurance, Gwen finally breathed a little sigh of relief, nodded and said, "I still hope Sharon will be safe."
Hawk chuckled and decided to change the subject: "Gwen, you were too reckless, you shouldn't have opened the door, we have a safety room in the basement."
After all, it's a mansion worth over ten million, a safety room is a must-have.
In their basement, there's a safety room that can accommodate a family of three, equipped with electricity, and food storage, that once closed, can last for three days.
Gwen, hearing this, seemed to think of something, looked at Hawk.
"Obviously, my method is very effective."
"Uh..."
Hawk was puzzled.
"What method?"
"Whenever I'm in danger, you show up immediately."
"..."
Hawk listened to Gwen's reasoning, looking a bit oddly: "So that's the reason you dared to open the door and face three Hydra Agents alone?"
Gwen shrugged her shoulders.
"Just tell me if it works or not."
"It works, but don't use it again next time."
Hawk looked at Gwen with a serious face: "I just happened to be coming out from that signal-less place with Peter and Felicia, what if I didn't come out so timely?"
Gwen smiled brightly, "It's okay, you forgot, you gave me a protective talisman."
As she spoke, she lowered her gaze, and took out the Pleiades Saint Cloth Necklace hanging around her neck.
Hawk showed a sudden realization: "Alright."
Gwen then carefully put away the necklace, then her eyes lit up, looking at Hawk.
"You found Peter and Felicia?"
"Yes."
"That's great."
"Yes, Felicia is pregnant, four months along, and it's Peter's."
"..."
Gwen's mouth opened slightly, her expression frozen in place.
Wait a minute.
What do you mean Felicia is pregnant, the baby is Peter's, and it's already four months?
Hiss!
Peter is two-timing?
Impossible, Peter has those thick eyebrows and big eyes, how could he be a scumbag?
Gwen's thoughts spun quickly at that moment.
Hawk gave a slight smile, stopped talking, and turned to look at the emergency room.
In the next second.
He felt someone tugging his sleeve.
Turning his head.
Gwen was staring wide-eyed at Hawk with an incredulous look, not speaking, but her eyes said it all.
"What's going on."
"Alright."
Hawk chuckled softly, then explained to Gwen the time discrepancy between Skull Island and the real world, and how Peter and Felicia got together.
Gwen was shocked.
Not only about the time discrepancy between Skull Island and the real world.
Also about Peter and Felicia getting together.
After a long while.
Gwen finally snapped out of her shock, looked at Hawk: "There really is such a magical place on Earth where a month outside is equivalent to a year on the island."
Hawk nodded.
"When I found Peter on Skull Island, I double-checked the records and discovered it, by the time I figured it out, more than ten days had passed outside."
"I really want to see it."
"Please don't, it's very dangerous there."
Hawk, hearing this, quickly spoke to try to dispel Gwen's terrifying thought: "You don't want to be playing there for a few days only to find out more than a month has passed outside, and Helen and George are going crazy looking for you, it'd be a disaster for me."
Gwen listened to Hawk's words, thought for a second, then nodded subconsciously: "Alright, but, Peter and Felicia, did Peter tell you about this? No way, Peter doesn't seem like the type to share his personal stuff."
Hawk's lips curled up.
"I told him, when Mary finds out Felicia's four months pregnant, do you think Mary will believe you two-timed or that she'd buy your time-travel story? But if you help Peter explain, Mary will believe it."
"Me?"
Gwen blinked, pointing to herself.
"Of course, if I speak, Mary will only think I'm conspiring with Peter."
"True."
Gwen found Hawk's explanation flawless, nodded, and then shook her head: "Forget it, it's better not to tell Mary. When Mary finds out about this herself, I'll help Peter explain it to her."
Hawk didn't reply.
He was only responsible for being an observer, not a participant.
Just then.
The light of the emergency room came on at that moment.
Very soon.
The door opened.
The masked surgeon came out first, followed closely by Sharon Carter on the hospital bed.
"The surgery went smoothly, but the patient lost a lot of blood and will need to be hospitalized for two days for observation."
"Alright, thank you, doctor."
As the surgeon left, Hawk and Gwen followed Sharon Carter into the VIP hospital room.
After all, this surgery went through the VIP express channel.
Code name——
Pay cash, no medical insurance.
In the VIP room.
Hawk crossed his arms and looked at Sharon, who was lying on the bed, and as the blood transfusion continued, her face gradually became rosy again. He shook his head and glanced at his fiancée: "My sixty thousand dollars, I'm afraid might not get reimbursed."
Gwen looked at Hawk: "Sharon is our friend."
On the bed, although her face had become a bit rosier, Sharon was still very weak. She managed a faint smile and looked at Hawk: "I'll pay you back."
Hawk laughed heartily.
"I was joking, Gwen is right, you are our friend."
"Sorry..."
At these words, Sharon apologized: "I almost got Gwen involved."
Hawk waved his hand, put away his smile, and looked seriously at Sharon.
"Once again, you're a friend, Sharon."
"Yeah, Sharon."
Gwen chimed in: "Friends don't need to be so formal, and technically speaking, if you hadn't come to me, Hawk might still be wandering around outside for who knows how long until he came back."
Hawk raised a brow and looked at Gwen.
Gwen ignored him and continued to comfort Sharon: "And as you see, Hawk is back. Don't worry, get some rest, no one will dare to cause trouble anymore."
Listening to Gwen's comfort, Sharon managed another smile and nodded, seemingly thinking of something, she turned to look at Hawk.
"Hawk, Hydra..."
"I know."
Hawk interrupted directly: "Hydra has been parasitizing your S.H.I.E.L.D all along, now Hydra doesn't bother to camouflage anymore, they're revealing themselves ready for round two, right."
Sharon was stunned, thinking Gwen had just told Hawk this, and nodded.
"New York S.H.I.E.L.D has also been taken over by them, Commander Hand was captured by them, Hawk, can you..."
"I can't!"
"..."
Sharon opened her mouth, the expectation in her eyes extinguished at a speed visible to the naked eye: "Okay."
Hawk smiled slightly.
"I don't want to meddle in your disputes with Hydra."
"But..."
"They made the first move."
"Today they dare to knock and probe, tomorrow they'd dare to barge in directly. If I pretend nothing happened, by the day after tomorrow, someone might dare to piss on my head."
"Moreover..."
Hawk said, watching Sharon, who was once again gradually hopeful, his lips slightly curling: "Besides, you're my friend, Sharon, and I'm always generous to friends, so tell me about John Garrett's appearance."
Principally speaking, he sincerely didn't want to concern himself with the disputes between Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D.
In one word.
Whether S.H.I.E.L.D wins or Hydra wins in the end, it makes no difference to him.
Surely, Hydra wouldn't dare not consider him once they took charge?
Turns out...
Hydra really dares.
Goodness.
They haven't even succeeded yet, and Hydra already dares to send someone to probe him. If he doesn't react, if Hydra wins, wouldn't it really be as if someone's climbing on his head?
Therefore!
He must respond.
Sharon naturally understood what Hawk's words meant, without hesitation, quickly described John Garrett, who led the capture of New York S.H.I.E.L.D, then looked at Hawk: "Hawk, Commander Hand is still inside, along with other agents, if possible, please help them."
Her pleading gaze was similar to when those three Hydra agents pleaded with Hawk to spare them.
But there was a fundamental difference.
Because Hawk chose to refuse the pleas of those three Hydra agents.
But for Sharon...
"Yes!"
Hawk nodded with a smile, then looked at Gwen.
As he was about to speak, Gwen smiled and said: "Go, superhero!"
Hawk raised an eyebrow.
"I'm not a superhero."
"I know, but you are my superhero, come back soon, it's getting dark, I'm afraid to go home alone."
"Hmm, I'll be back soon."
Upon hearing this, Hawk laughed, and at the moment he turned around, his form vanished dreamlike in the living room.
Watching Hawk disappear from sight, Gwen blinked her eyes, then looked at Sharon lying on the hospital bed and said with a smile: "You can rest easy now."
Sharon pulled out a smile.
"Thank you, Gwen."
"No thanks needed."
Gwen smiled, then glanced at the infusion bottle, and said to Sharon: "You should sleep, I'll watch over you, don't worry, Hawk is back, things will soon be resolved."
Sharon softly responded.
"Yes, Hawk is back..."
Before finishing the sentence.
Sharon had already closed her eyelids, sinking into a deep but very peaceful sleep.
The assurance was straightforward and unapologetic.
Hawk——
Is back!
