"I'm sorry," Yogurt whispered, "I've always hated my father because he failed my mother and ruined her life. Before I found him, all I could think about was how to get revenge on him, and I would do anything to achieve it. But when I looked back, I found that I seemed to have become another him."
"You don't need to apologize. This is my own choice," Shen Dongxing said. He then hesitated, "I don't think your mother … really hated your father that much. Otherwise, she wouldn't have given birth to you."
"It doesn't matter," Yogurt said. "A mistake is a mistake. Since it has come to this, I must make my father pay the price. As for our problem, let's talk about it after this matter is over. I will find a way to compensate you."
Shen Dongxing looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end, he moved his lips, and nothing came out.
"I contacted my father and sent him the video and photos. He agreed to our request, but he asked to see me first to confirm that I am still alive."
"He …"
"He won't agree to this condition," Yogurt sneered. "He just wants to take this opportunity to ambush you. He will most likely bring the guy who can deal with Spiderman with him."
"Ah, then why did you ask him to meet?" Shen Dongxing was dumbfounded.
"What are you afraid of?" Yogurt said, "It's past midnight now, and your ability has been refreshed, right? If he dares to turn against us, we can turn against him too. And this time, you don't have to be there. This way, it's foolproof."
"But how can I help you if I don't go?"
"As long as I have your figurine, you can pick one to disguise as you," Yogurt said.
"Then I … I will choose a place near you. If there is any danger, I can send another figurine there immediately. My limit is to mechanize seven figurines at once, but the duration will be reduced by half." Shen Dongxing told Yogurt everything that was supposed to be an absolute secret.
"Whatever," Yogurt said. "You just need to hide well."
…
After the two made some preparations, Yogurt chose a place with no one around as the meeting place.
It was a shopping mall that was already closed. Yogurt secretly opened the door and then used some unknown prop to confuse the security guard on duty.
Shen Dongxing, on the other hand, booked a private room in an Internet cafe not far away. He hurriedly logged into the computer and selected Captain America from a set of Avengers figurines that he had borrowed. The latter had always appeared as a guardian, and Shen Dongxing felt a little more at ease using him to protect Yogurt.
Of course, his outfit was a little too eye-catching even for the United States in the 1920s. Shen Dongxing directly asked him to pick a few clothes from the mall to change into, and then covered his head. The vibranium shield and the clothes he had taken off were temporarily put on a plastic mannequin.
Yogurt stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the third floor of the mall and watched as 1810 parked his car on the street below.
1810 got out of the car. He looked vigilant and kept looking around. As promised, he came here alone. There was no one else in the car, but just because she didn't see him did not mean that he did not exist. Yogurt had studied 1810 for a long time, and she knew that he would never fight a battle he was not confident of winning.
But Yogurt didn't care, because there was only one winner tonight.
While there was still some time left, Yogurt looked back at Captain America beside her.
The latter stood quietly in the dark, and his silence gave Yogurt a sense of security. "I've wanted to tell you this for a long time, but I didn't want you to hear it. So, it's best to say it now … I hope you can learn something from this incident. You're not young anymore. Don't trust others so easily and invest all your feelings in them. Both men and women are stupid when it comes to love. Since you have the ability that others dream of, you should learn to protect yourself. Otherwise, do you always expect someone to stop for you?"
Yogurt paused for a while before continuing, "That Grade-C game item is your compensation. Initially, I wanted to help you get more game points, but it seems impossible now. So, I hope you can find a girl who is truly worthy of your affection in the future, and she will never let you down. Well, that's all I have to say. Take care."
After she finished speaking, she moved her head to the other side and looked in the direction of the elevator.
On the other side, Shen Dongxing, who was in the private room of the internet cafe, was completely dumbfounded. He could see what Captain America saw through the computer, but he could not hear any sound, and he could not speak. All he could see was Yogurt's mouth opening and closing, but he had no idea what she was saying.
However, Shen Dongxing's intuition told him that something bad was going to happen tonight, but he could not ask Captain America to speak. At this time, 1810 had arrived, and he could not rush out of the internet cafe to look for Yogurt. All he could do now was sit in the chair and worry.
Yogurt had never told Shen Dongxing her entire plan. Almost every time, she would tell him about it step by step, like squeezing toothpaste. Shen Dongxing was not a complete fool, but he would subconsciously give up thinking when he was in front of Yogurt. Now that he was alone, he could finally regain some of his lost intelligence. Now that he thought about it, he realized that tonight's incident actually revealed a lot of strange things.
Yogurt knew that she could not get anything tonight, so why did she insist on meeting 1810? Even if she defeated 1810 and his men, what good would it do her?
Her plan had always been revenge, but not physical revenge. Otherwise, the person who was captured by Dumbledore that night would not be herself, but 1810. Her ultimate goal had never changed. She wanted to force 1810 to tear off his mask of hypocrisy and all the beautified memories. He wanted to admit that he was a complete bastard, a scumbag in love, and an irresponsible father. He wanted to continue living with the guilt that he would never be forgiven.
How was she going to do that?
Shen Dongxing felt that he seemed to have grasped something important, but when he thought about it carefully, he could not figure it out. Now that 1810's appearance reminded him of the guy who single-handedly challenged Spiderman not long ago, he became nervous again. He had to stop thinking about this problem and refocus his attention on Captain America.
Other than that, there were also Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, Iron Man, and Hawkeye on his table. Their presence made him feel a little more at ease. No matter who came tonight, no one could hurt Yogurt as long as his ability was active.
Shen Dongxing now had this confidence.
