Chapter 168 Li Chengfeng: Why don’t you go say hello to your son?
Peggy Carter's funeral was quickly arranged.
After all, Captain Britain and Nick Fury were the only ones responsible for arranging the entire process, so the efficiency couldn't be low.
Peggy Carter was an outstanding agent who had made great contributions in both countries and was also the first director of the America General Agency. An outrageous number of people came to pay their respects.
Li Chengfeng even served as a driver. He not only opened the portal to pick up all the main members of the X-Men, but also picked up all the elite agents with names and surnames from the America Headquarters.
Batch after batch of people passed through the portal, but Uncle Wolf was nowhere to be found.
Just when Li Chengfeng was about to shock Uncle Wolf with his personal terminal, he found that this usually carefree man was pushing a wheelchair towards him.
Li Chengfeng looked closely and saw the person in the wheelchair...
Isn't that Bucky Barnes?
Because Hydra's hypnotic effects were too strong, all of the captured Winter Soldiers were placed in protective custody.
Baji, the prototype of the Winter Soldier, is naturally among them.
"Logan, has the hypnosis in Bucky's brain been completely eliminated?"
"It was eliminated a few days ago. Except for those who were loyal to Hydra before becoming the Winter Soldier, the other Winter Soldiers were placed in the FBI in their home countries." Uncle Wolf pushed the wheelchair to Li Chengfeng and shrugged. "But Bucky was beaten up a bit by Steve in the last battle, and his legs and feet have not recovered yet."
After saying that, he glanced at Bucky Barnes who was sitting in the wheelchair without saying a word, and then deliberately said in a low voice that the three people present could hear:
"But the main reason is that some people felt ashamed to face Steve Rogers, so they stayed in the nursing home for a few more days. But I didn't expect Peggy to pass away at this time. Even if we are ashamed to face others, we have to see our old friend off for the last time."
Li Chengfeng smiled and nodded.
Although Uncle Wolf looked relaxed, his smile did not reach his eyes, and the depths of his eyes were also shrouded in sadness.
After all, whether it is Uncle Wolf or Baji, they are all members of the Howling Commandos and are Peggy Carter's soldiers.
The death of this leader, colleague, and friend made Bucky Barnes, who had just been brainwashed and whose emotions had not yet fully recovered, feel the same...
sad.
But he was more worried about Steve Rogers.
Not long after returning through time, his beloved died.
"…How's Steve?"
Bucky Barnes was silent for a while, and finally said something.
"It was okay. He danced the last dance with his girl, and she fell asleep forever in his arms... It was a sad and imperfect ending, but... it was good enough."
"That's right, that's right... Peggy has waited too long, it's time to rest." Bucky Barnes nodded thoughtfully, then lowered his head and muttered to himself.
Seeing that Baji had entered his world again, Li Chengfeng nodded to Uncle Wolf without saying much, and then they walked into the portal together.
At the other end of the portal is the famous "Westminster Abbey".
That is Westminster Abbey.
As one of the most prestigious Catholic churches, Westminster Abbey is not only the church used by the royal family of England, but also the burial place of outstanding figures from all fields in England.
And there is no doubt that Peggy Carter is absolutely qualified to be buried here.
The main hall of Westminster Abbey is so huge that even with a series of spaces reserved for funerals, it can easily accommodate all the people coming to attend the funeral.
Li Chengfeng even saw Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne, who had just expressed their condolences to Steve Rogers, and then saw Li Chengfeng.
"Lee, have you been okay these past few days? To be honest I'm not very good at attending funerals because they're a little too...sad."
"Thanks to you, it's not bad... I'm glad you didn't come here in your flashy suit."
"Oh, come on. I admit that I am a little unruly and even contemptuous of the world, but I still read people's expressions sometimes." Tony Stark shook his head. Although he was joking with Li Chengfeng, his eyes showed deep sadness. "It's hard to imagine that Aunt Peggy just left like this."
Li Chengfeng looked at Tony Stark with surprise.
Aunt Peggy?
What generation is this?
But when he thought about it carefully…there was nothing wrong with shouting!
His father, Howard Stark, was originally a good friend of Peggy Carter, and later even worked in the same unit.
When Howard Stark was rescued by the Legends, Tony's mother was saved, but she couldn't hold on for long and eventually passed away.
Tony Stark, who was only seventeen years old and whose parents had passed away, encountered great resistance when taking over the family business, even though he was a genius cursed by knowledge.
At that time, Peggy Carter was still the director of the America General Bureau, and she must have taken good care of her old friend's son.
Otherwise, with Tony Stark's personality, would he help the FBI improve the flying aircraft carrier just because Nick Fury and the beautiful agent talked a few words?
It was just the seventeen-year-old kid's expression of gratitude to Aunt Peggy.
"Peggy Carter is indeed a great woman. After my parents passed away, although the Wayne Group was not as complicated as the Stark family, Peggy Carter still helped the Wayne Group a lot in terms of external conditions." Bruce Wayne patted Tony Stark on the shoulder, "So, I signed a 30-year outsourcing partner contract with the American General Administration without hesitation."
"Your family is complicated! Your whole family is complicated!"
Li Chengfeng watched the two top bosses from New York and Gotham reminiscing about the past, and couldn't help but feel deep admiration for Peggy Carter!
After a long time of fussing...
The tradition of raising children was passed down from you!
Suddenly, Li Chengfeng caught a glimpse of a very familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, but the figure was wearing a hat and his face could not be seen clearly.
So after waving to Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne, Li Chengfeng walked towards the direction where the figure flashed.
Looking around, I found the guy in the hat huddled in the right corner of the church seats.
He was the only one there for the time being.
Li Chengfeng walked over without hesitation and sat at the seat next to him.
After getting closer, Li Chengfeng finally confirmed the identity of this guy.
How should I put it...it's not really surprising.
"Is this your first time attending a friend's funeral?"
"If you mean after the war... yes, this is indeed the first time." The man in the hat shook his head and sighed, "I am still young, but my friends have grown old or even died... So this is how it feels."
"Okay, stop pretending to be so deep."
Li Chengfeng reached out and took off the man's hat, then continued:
"Howard Stark, aren't you going to say hello to your wonderful son?"
