Chapter 59: Christmas is coming

　　Watching Mike leave, Howard took out a cell phone from the car and made a call.

　　When the call connected, Howard took a deep breath and said, "Carter...the serum has been robbed."

　　"What?" Peggy Carter exclaimed, "What happened?"

　　After a pause, thinking of the reason, he said in a deep voice: "There are traitors!"

　　"I'll discuss the details later." Howard then smiled bitterly, then winked at Maria and said, "We have suffered some injuries and will have to rest for a while."

　　"Yes, be careful.

　　Peggy Carter said and hung up.

Howard laughed softly and said to his wife, "Let's leave here and find a good hospital to rest for a while."

　　He looked at the distance and a lot of things run through head.

　　Retirement, company, family, and S.H.I.E.L.D.…

　　On the brink verge of death, his mind recalled many things and regretted the many years he wasted throwing his self on his career, ignoring his family, and ignoring his son.

　　"During this time, we will let Tony take over the company."

　　"Hmm?"

　　Maria looked at her husband in surprise, but understood what this meant.

　　Howard held his wife's hand and said affectionately, "I want to spend time with you well."

　　Maria was so moved that she buried her head in Howard's chest.

　　Meanwhile, in Mike's car.

　　Clark closed his eyes and relayed every word of Howard and Maria to Mike.

　　Mike just nodded them looked at his little son who was dozing off.

　　Charles sat up abruptly, yawned, and said, "When Mr. Stark agreed to Dad's request, he was sincere and not lying."

　　Mike responded with "hmm"

　　He was exposed, but he didn't care, if it was kids who exposed their ability, then he would have delete the other party's memory.

　　"By the way, Eric just did a good job."

　　Eric smiled with a 'hehe'

　　The Mike family returned home and was ready to go to bed after washing up.

At the same time The Winter Soldier also came to a secret base.

　　He pressed his wound, while holding the super soldier serum, and stood in front of several people, still silent like a machine.

　　"He's injured?"

　　A short old man with glasses and with a hair that was any moment would fall glanced at the Winter Soldier, a little surprised.

　　"Did something happen?"

　　Howard can never hurt the Winter Soldier.

　　"A man showed up and rescued them."

　　"who is it?"

　　"I don't know, but he's strong."

　　"Give me the stuff the go down and treat your wound."

　　The Winter Soldier nodded silently, handed the suitcase to him, and left as silently.

　　"Dr. Zola! What do we do?"

　　Howard is not dead, their operation wasn't perfect, and if Howard managed to trace them down, they will be in big trouble.

　　Dr. Zola groaned and said, "Throw some of the pieces out, and everyone should stop moving for now during this time."

　　After a pause, Zola smiled and said, "Don't worry, S.H.I.E.L.D. was built by them, just like their children, no one believes that their children will become a 'bad guy'. '."

　　"Even if there are some problems, It will only feel like a bad problem that was accidentally raised, as long as it is corrected."

　　The pieces he threw away were the 'bad bugs' on the S.H.I.E.L.D.

　　As long as they feels like they've cleaned up their organization, it shouldn't be much of a problem.

　　Having worked together for decades, he knew Howard and Peggy Carter all too well.

　　A several people breathed a sigh of relief, and Zola continued: "Give these serums to our old friends. In addition, and the promised

resources should be sent to us, and we do a good job ."

　　Although he was a little surprised that he didn't managed to kill Howard Stark and his wife, he didn't care too much.

　　Hydra?

　　It was destroyed a long time ago, and it was Howard and the others who destroyed it by themselves. They are more certain than everyone.

　　Now there are no Hydras at all, only S.H.I.E.L.D.!

　　Yes, S.H.I.E.L.D., we are all S.H.I.E.L.D.

　　Zola smiled and turned to leave.

　　...

　　Because of Howard Stark's assassination, there was a bloody storm in S.H.I.E.L.D., and Tony Stark officially entered the Stark industry as the heir, and the city, the country, and even the whole world were in uproar.

　　But these things have nothing to do with Mike.

　　Now, his headache is...Christmas present!

　　With Christmas approaching, he has three presents to prepare.

　　Silently reviewi the gifts he gave a these years, Mike had a headache, and he felt that he had given everything.

　　Die guns, comic books, clothes, fairy wand...

　　Got it!

　　Mike's eyes lit up.

　　bike!

　　The three of them are already big children, and toys are not that suitable for them now.

　　With bicycles, they ca exercise their bodies, and he no longer have to pick them up from school, liberating themselves, which is perfect.

　　Well!

　　What a genius idea.

　　Clark is listening to music, Charles and Eric are reading.

　　Yes, you read that right, just reading a book.

　　Since the circus incident, the two seem to have grown up overnight.

　　On weekdays, they is less naughty and was more serious.

　　However, the word is 'less' so you know the rest.

Seeing that the three of them wouldn't bother him for a while, Mike smiled, used the teleport skill card, and disappeared in place.

　　It's not easy to prepare Christmas gifts for children these days. You have to be sneaky, keep the mystery, and surprise them.

　　It was even more difficult for Mike who has to face aren't ordinary kid.

　　Mike appeared up on an obscure street corner in New York City, took his time, found a bike store, and picked out three sports bikes.

Blue and blac and white, one color for each of them.

　　Payed for it, find a corner, and disappear with the them.

　　Mike is liking this ability more and more.

　　However, he can only make one or two such teleportation cards that can travel for a relatively long distance.

　　Hiding the them, Mike walked to the kitchen as if nothing had happened, and started to prepare lunch.

　　Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, but Mike hasn't prepared the very important Christmas tree.

　　In the afternoon, they have to find a suitable Christmas tree, and then start to decorate together, so it is time to hurry.
