This photo is a group photo of four people.
A pair of secret agents faking a marriage, plus Natasha and Yelena.
The family of four was smiling so sweetly; if you didn't know better, you would think they were an exceptionally happy family.
On the back of the photo is written: Only I, only I believe this is a real family, only I...
"Those three years were the most carefree period of my life. I even thought it was real, and that everything before was just a dream. I truly considered you my sister, Yelena..."
Black Widow stared at the photo for a long time, then spoke to Qin Xiao with unusual determination.
"Qin, I need to find her..."
A photo arrives every few days; it's unclear how long it will take for Yelena to contact Black Widow.
Taking the initiative is indeed a good idea.
Yelena was the bait that Dreykov had laid out. Qin Xiao knew something was wrong, but he walked right into it.
One was willing to hit, and the other was willing to be hit.
Qin Xiao and Black Widow quickly found their trail.
I wonder if Dreykov was afraid that Qin Xiao and the others wouldn't be able to find Yelena.
Tony was instructed to access the building's security footage, which revealed that the same little boy had delivered the mail both times.
The little boy named Hobson lived nearby, and every day he would watch a group of older kids play basketball in the nearby park.
In the boy's words, the older girl would always find him on the basketball court and pay him twenty dollars to deliver mail, instructing him to slip the envelope halfway into the designated mailbox when no one was around.
"Sir, are you the FBI? Have I been used to send some classified information? Will I go to jail for it?"
"No, you've done us a huge favor, you'll be rewarded for it!"
Qin Xiao waved his hands, magically producing a new handheld game console.
Wow!
The boy, who was only about ten years old, exclaimed in surprise.
"Thank you, sir. Is there anything I can do to assist you?"
"All you need to do is come here every day to watch them play basketball, just like always!"
"I understand, sir. If that woman comes looking for me again, I will definitely find a way to stall her so that you can successfully apprehend her!"
Qin Xiao laughed heartily, ruffled the child's hair, and said, "What a clever little devil!"
I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful!
Black Widow smiled and said to Qin Xiao, who had just finished talking to the child and was walking towards her.
Before they reviewed the surveillance footage and approached the child, Qin Xiao specially went to buy a new game console.
"Of course, I'm an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.."
Qin Xiao said smugly.
"Level 1, rookie agent!"
Black Widow added insult to injury with a smile.
"Stop talking about that, let's find a place to hide quickly, Yelena might come soon!"
Qin Xiao quickly changed the subject.
As it turns out, Qin Xiao has been quite lucky lately.
The two spent the afternoon there, and the street basketball game in the park was about to end.
Just then, a girl's figure suddenly appeared around the corner.
"Qin! I feel that's... that's Yelena!"
Yelena seems to be Black Widow's Achilles' heel; at this moment, Black Widow has lost all the composure and rationality of a top agent.
"Don't get excited, Natasha, let's take a look first and confirm before we say anything!"
Qin Xiao comforted Natasha while staring at the girl.
Sure enough, the girl went straight to the basketball court and walked directly toward Hobson.
Black Widow nervously grasped Qin Xiao's hand.
When the girl was still more than ten meters away from Hobson, Hobson turned around and saw her.
Then...
"Sister, run! A bad guy is looking for you; he's lying in ambush nearby..."
Hobson suddenly shouted loudly at Yelena.
Yelena immediately turned and ran.
"Shit!"
Qin Xiao cursed angrily and charged out with Black Widow like leopards.
"You're a liar, kid. I'll come back for that game console."
Qin Xiao shouted loudly at Hobson as he chased after him.
"I don't care, you old stalker who's been stalking girls. If you've got the guts, come back to me. My dad will beat your dick to a pulp, you bastard!"
Hobson gave Qin Xiao a bright middle finger.
"I'm going to complain to officials in the New York Department of Education. Children's education is such a failure; where is the trust between people?"
Qin Xiao complained, feeling frustrated.
"Qin, go over there and flank her, but don't hurt her!"
Black Widow, seeing the direction Yelena had run, pointed Qin Xiao to another path.
"It doesn't need to be that complicated!"
Ignoring the shock value of his actions, Qin Xiao stopped and crouched down before leaping up suddenly.
Qin Xiao's footsteps sent fragments flying everywhere, creating a large crater.
He flew more than ten meters into the air like a gorilla, landing at the other end of the alley.
They, along with Black Widow, blocked Yelena, one in front and one behind.
"Oh my god! I think I've gotten myself into a huge mess!"
Hobson's jaw nearly dropped to the ground when he saw Qin Xiao leap into the air.
He quickly packed his things and prepared to run home, making sure to put the game console into his backpack before leaving.
" Hobson, where are you going? Aren't you coming home with me?"
Another child said to Hobson.
"No, I have to go home right now. I need to get my dad to move immediately. I've gotten myself into big trouble, buddy!"
Hobson slung his bag over his shoulder and fled.
In the alley, Yelena, who was blocked, slowed down.
He turned to Black Widow and said.
"What's wrong? Are you here to catch up, or to kill me, my sister!"
Yelena's story is complete and moving, especially for Black Widow who finally found her sister.
After Dreykov died, the Red Room was taken over by others who used nerve agents to control all the Black Widow.
Yes, Qin Xiao just learned that Black Widow is not a title reserved for Natasha; in fact, every agent who successfully graduates from the Red Room receives the title of Black Widow.
If Black Widow Black Widow is seriously injured while on a mission, they will force her to commit suicide.
This practice is called scrapping in the Red Room.
Yelena also escaped the drug's control by chance, which is why she has been hiding and constantly evading the Red Room's pursuit.
I recently arrived in the United States the Red Room's influence hasn't fully reached.
Unexpectedly, she still found traces of the Black Widow in the United States, and she thought that the Black Widow had come to kill her.
It turned out that her target was Natasha and Qin Xiao.
(To distinguish her from others, we'll call Black Widow by her first name from now on.)
She recognized her sister, but because she was being chased and her childhood experiences made her hesitant to trust anyone, she repeatedly tested her.
The story was complete and highly credible. If Qin Xiao hadn't heard Hawkeye mention that Dreykov wasn't dead, he might have believed Yelena's words.
"It's alright! You're safe! From now on, you can stay here, and your brother-in-law will take care of you!"
Qin Xiao smiled like a cunning old fox.
There's definitely no word for "brother-in-law" in the English system, but when facing your sister-in-law, it just doesn't feel right if you don't write it out, doesn't it? Brother-in-law, sister-in-law, haha! I didn't have any ideas at first, but when I think about this relationship, I'm wondering if I should let Qin Xiao be a little more affectionate.
There will be another chapter later!
