Master Gu Yi smiled at the non-stop rainstorm outside the window, still kept the action of catching the rainwater, and said with relief:

"It seems that you and Mr. Strange get along very well."

There was no message in the torrential rain, apparently the young man on the other side was still waiting for her answer.

So the Ancient One smiled and continued: "Don't worry, since Strange chose to help you, this is the path he will accept—"

"Wait?" An Chunzhi couldn't help interrupting her, "Master Gu Yi, I'm sorry, but didn't you let Stephen stay at the beginning? Stephen was very upset at that time."

"It wasn't me, he proposed it himself." With a slight smile on his face, Master Gu Yi repeated with a deep meaning in his tone, "He proposed it himself."

"..." An Chunzhi was speechless in confusion.

The Ancient One mage paused for a while, but she didn't get any information, so she said unhurriedly: "I have taught Mr. Strange all the knowledge, and then he can only continue to hone himself in the battle. "

"There are countless different spaces and dimensions in this world. Those alien creatures have been eyeing the earth, and Dormammu in the dark dimension is the leader among them. So the world seems to be peaceful, but secretly we must always be vigilant. Stop them. For this reason we set up the Temple, which is the last line of defense on Earth. I will not leave this place easily-this is the mission of every Supreme Mage."

An Chunzhi didn't know why Master Gu Yi said all of a sudden, but he listened carefully, patiently asked questions, and didn't interrupt Master Gu Yi again.

"Human life is limited. Even if I have the Eye of Agamotto that controls time, even if I am called immortal, I can't change this." Master Gu Yi was silent for a few seconds before continuing, "So I want Strange to spend as much time as possible in your shop."

"System, what does she mean?" An Chunzhi's heart was covered with an ominous cloud.He thought of the attack of Dormammu and the death of the ancient mage in the original movie.

"It probably means what you think." The system also replied very slowly, "Strange is the successor trained by the ancient one mage. As long as the ancient one mage dies one day, Strange will have to return to the The temple stands guard, and has assumed the responsibility of guarding the multidimensional Earth forever."

—Yeah, that's exactly what the future Doctor Strange always does.

An Chunzhi knew this in his heart, but he became even more anxious. He asked incomprehensibly: "Master Ancient One, why do I not see any benefit for Stephen staying in my shop? You said he will need to fight in battle next time?" Train yourself, but you agree that he has been doing nothing with me for the past few months?"

Strange's current strength is still too weak. If Master Gu Yi dies suddenly one day and Strange can't afford it, it will be all An Chunzhi's fault.

Thinking of this, An Chunzhi felt ashamed and anxious, as uncomfortable as her heart being immersed in ice water.

"Do you think Strange has nothing to do these days?" The Ancient One asked back.

An Chunyi was taken aback: "Isn't it?"

Usually Strange stays in the store honestly, even when monsters appear, because of the huge difference in size, mages are basically unable to help, so they can only take the Eye of Agamotto as the last insurance, other times it is still An Chunzhi joins forces with superheroes to fight monsters.

So An Chunzhi felt that Strange might not like this kind of life very much.

"When we first met, what kind of person did you think Mr. Strange was?" Ancient One asked peacefully.Her hand seemed to be tired from lifting it, so she changed her arm and raised it out of the window, and the fingertips that were stretched out were immediately wet.

"...a person who is confident, serious, and has his own ideas." An Chunzhi said tactfully.

The smile on Master Gu Yi's face deepened. She watched the large and small ripples splashed by the raindrops on the ground in the dark night, and said jokingly: "I almost thought you were talking about your famous Friend? It doesn't matter, just say what you really think. "

—Steve?

An Chunzhi's cheeks burned, so he had no choice but to tell the truth dryly: "Unsociable, arrogant, conceited, and fond of poisonous tongue."

"This is Strange's problem." Master Gu Yi seemed to know that An Chunzhi would say that, and quickly continued the next sentence with a slight sigh.

"He can only see himself."

Then she asked, "What now?"

An Chunzhi hesitated for a moment, then thought about it carefully and said: "Although he is still a bit arrogant, Stephen gets along well with us, he is very enthusiastic and willing to help me or Sherlock, and he is always doing things in silence."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly understood what Master Gu Yi meant.

"The last problem that prevented Strange from advancing has been solved. Sometimes, the cultivation of the heart is more important than the strength of the battle." The ancient master smiled gratifiedly, and stretched his arms high in the gloomy rain , raised his voice and said, "Go back and tell him to do what he thinks is right, and you don't need to use it secretly anymore."

Before An Chunzhi could react, Mage Gu Yi had already turned away from the window, the torrential rain and cold wind were shut out and separated from her arms.A few drops of rainwater slid down her fingertips onto the floor by the window, leaving a last touch of cold and wet touch.

"Wait!" An Chunzhi called out, but it was too late.

Contact has been disconnected.

An Chunzhi had no choice but to stop the system's ability to rain, and his mind turned back to darkness again.Then he slowly recalled what Master Ancient One said: "Sneaky use? Does this refer to the Eye of Agamotto?"

"Yes." The system admitted, "There's one thing I didn't tell you, host. You've been too busy lately... You've only received urgent missions related to superheroes at most during this time, right?"

An Chun was stunned, and it was right to think about it: "In the past, there were indeed a lot of daily tasks and emergency tasks to go out to save people. I thought it was because the main task was too busy recently, so you screened them out for me?"

"Generally speaking, I won't filter it out. After all, if you do one more task, you will save a lot of people." The system paused, and the voice lowered inexplicably, "Although the lives of ordinary people are meaningless to me, But I know that you all value these things, and now I have become..."

The flat baritone voice of the system gradually became inaudible.

"So... it's Stephen?" Combined with the previous words, An Chunzhi asked incredulously, "He is using the Eye of Agamotto to go out secretly to fight and save people?"

As we all know, the Eye of Agamotto is actually the time gem among the infinite gems. It has the ability to manipulate time, and it can reach both the distant past and the unknown future.In the future, the Eye of Agamotto will be the standard outfit of Doctor Strange, just like the red cloak.

Because An Chunzhi always had to fight monsters, Strange kept the Eye of Agamotto in Strange's hands and never returned it.An Chunzhi thought he would be honest, but who is Stephen Strange?

He is the future Doctor Strange. No matter in the movie or in reality, he is not a peaceful person. He is very curious and has a great desire to explore.The time gem is in his hand, can he get up every day without trying to use it?

"If you think about Strange's character, you will know whether he will stay in the store as a clerk. Sherlock always likes to run outside. Strange's normality is the biggest abnormality. "The system confirmed An Chunzhi's guess.

But after all, it is a time gem, and in terms of not letting him discover the abnormality, the method of use should be similar to the time converter in "Harry Potter", right?

An Chunzhi sorted out the conversation.Except for the half-understood part, it turns out that the Ancient One mage has been paying attention to Strange, and Strange is not as weak as he appears on the surface.After being allowed to use the Eye of Agamotto, his strength will increase greatly.

Knowing this news, An Chunzhi was already extremely relieved and satisfied.

With his eyes closed, he had already completely forgotten about the fact that Steve was lying beside him, thinking about these things in a happy mood, and fell asleep unconsciously.

The sound of the rainstorm outside the window gradually weakened, turning into a patter of light rain, but it never stopped.The repetitive and rhythmic banging on the railing was very hypnotic, but Steve didn't feel sleepy at all.

Listening to the steady and slow breathing in the bedroom, he turned his face from the pillow, staring at the vague figure beside him in the darkness.

Ann was fast asleep.

The black-haired young man curled up comfortably under the blanket, sleeping peacefully with his eyes closed, unconscious.But Steve couldn't sleep at all, he could only stare at the ceiling with a burning flame in his chest.

Because the bed was not big enough, the edges of the two quilts squeezed on top were hanging on the ground, and the part where the quilts joined was also squeezed not so flat, causing not only the shoulders, but also Steve's arms to stick to each other.This made him feel like he was being scalded by a red-hot iron, and he didn't know where to put his hands.

At this distance, as long as you turn half of your body, you can hug the thin body beside you in your arms, and as long as you turn your face sideways, your nose and chest will be filled with An's familiar breath.

It was a bit too much for Steve Rogers, the fake old man in his 90s.

——After all, with a swipe of the label, his real situation is still a young man with a fresh blood!

I really don't know how Ann was not affected at all, and fell asleep after a while.Are you so unguarded towards him?

But what An thought was right, he really couldn't do anything to An.

Steve sighed silently, feeling a little dizzy.He controlled himself stiffly and slowly to turn over to the other side of Wuan, and began to count the peeling skin on the wall.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces...how did you lose so much?

Ann's house seems to be relatively old, and tomorrow I have to find a worker to paint the bedroom as well.

Steve was thinking about messy things, but he was still not sleepy, and his expression became more and more depressed.

He felt that he was going to lose sleep all night tonight.

……

The night finally passed.

An Chunzhi's mobile phone alarm clock rang at five o'clock on time, and he reached out to turn it off reflexively, and when he opened his eyes in a daze, he was startled suddenly: "Steve?! Are you... not asleep? "

The blond man next to him was staring at the ceiling in a sluggish way. There were two obvious dark circles under his eyes. It looked like he had been through a hard night.

"I caught up on sleep yesterday, maybe I slept too much." Steve said with a wry smile.

"..." An Chunzhi stared at him suspiciously, without speaking.

"What are you doing after so many, host, let's sleep again." The system said lightly, "It's still raining, and your old friend doesn't need to be made things difficult by Hawkeye today."

——Good old friend.

An Chunzhi remembered.

"So do you mean 'my good old friend' when you say 'old friend'?" An Chunzhi asked with a half-smile.

Tell Steve this, believe it or not, he wants to hit someone?

System: "Uh——"

The author has something to say:

small theater:

An Chunzhi: Is Stephen so good?

Steve: ==#...We share the same bed, and you're thinking about other men? !

Small Theater 2:

An Chunzhi: Let's sleep together tonight.

Steve (sincere expression): Ann, don't worry, I know what to do.

(the next morning)

An Chunzhi (annoyed): Steve, you said you knew what to do, so you stayed up all night? !

Steve: ………qwq
