I'm the Demon King in Marvel

Chapter 82 Captain America Becomes Poor Again

Chapter 82 Captain America Becomes Poor Again (First Order Request)
After a few days of recovery observation, David Rogers was discharged from the hospital under the reluctant gaze of the doctors.

Walking on the way home, the street scenes of Sokovia gave Rogers a sense of familiarity. After accepting the setting of "rebirth", he began to try hard to recall his memories of David Rogers, and gradually accepted the fact that he was a modern man.

"To celebrate David's discharge from the hospital, let's have a good meal in the evening. Let's go to the market to buy vegetables now." Lina Rogers was very happy. Her son was finally discharged after years of hospitalization. His future life was full of hope again.

Sokovia is a small country with a turbulent situation, which has not yet been calmed down. Hydra is inevitably behind the scenes to manipulate it. The more chaotic the situation is, the better they can infiltrate the country's military and political circles, and justify their high-pressure rule.

This small country has only one decent city, the capital, which is located on the flat land at the foot of the mountain. It is surrounded by mountains and has insufficient arable land.

The chaotic situation and limited resources reveal the living conditions of the people of Sokovia.

The "vegetable market" that Lina Rogers mentioned is a market a few streets away, which not only sells vegetables, but also various daily necessities, clothing, and even small furniture.

This is the norm in economically backward areas. Scarce supplies and low-income consumer groups cannot support separately categorized stores, so all daily necessities have to be concentrated in places where people gather.

It’s not that there are no supermarkets or shopping malls in Sokovia, but those places are the territories of high-income groups, and the lower-class civilians may not go in once a year.

The Rogers family, who originally had two working parents, were middle class with a good income, but they had already emptied their family savings in order to cover their eldest son's medical expenses for six years.

Debt? No!
After years of turbulence, none of the relatives and neighbors had any surplus food. They only contributed a little out of friendship when David Rogers was injured six years ago, but it has been difficult for them to come up with any spare money since then.

It is even less likely that banks will lend them money. As for loan sharks... living in such a situation, who among the people, except drug addicts and gamblers, would be stupid enough to borrow money from loan sharks from gangs?
In the eyes of the gangsters, what value do the Rogers family have other than selling blood and organs?
Steve Rogers, who has accepted the identity of a modern man, does not know this, but he is not stupid. Through digesting memories and chatting with his brother in the days since he woke up, he has almost understood the situation at home.

Coincidentally, this is highly consistent with Steve Rogers' childhood experience. His father died on the battlefield of World War I. Although he was lucky enough to get a pension, his mother was ill and lived alone with her son in the chaotic environment of Brooklyn. Their life was definitely not affluent.

If it weren't for his good friend Bucky who helped the skinny Steve to fight off the street thugs and protect him every day, Steve Rogers' teenage years would probably not have seen any hope.

So Captain America would rather give up his shield and identity to protect Bucky, the feelings between them are too deep.

Seeing the increasingly hunched backs of the Rogers couple, Steve Rogers secretly made up his mind: he would protect this family from now on!
So Rogers helped carry the things throughout the process and put all the things on his back.

"See how quickly my son recovered? It's all thanks to me." Lina Rogers smiled proudly at her husband.

"Yes, yes, you cook the best!" Harry Rogers smiled and praised his wife: "Who among the neighbors on the whole street doesn't know Chef Lina?"

"Of course!" Lina Rogers said proudly, "If it weren't for me, would our night snack stand be so popular?"

When Steve Rogers was released by Baron Strucker, he was already emaciated, and the blood samples he took filled an entire refrigerator.

Otherwise, his body shape would not fit the image of a vegetative person who has been bedridden for six years.

Hydra is so bad!

However, the Super Soldier Serum has an incomparable benefit to Steve Rogers. After nutritional supplements, his muscles reappeared and his American buttocks were particularly eye-catching.

"Hey, Lina!" An acquaintance came over to greet her with a smile: "This handsome guy is David, right?"

"Yes, it's my son!" Lina Rogers smiled proudly.

Steve Rogers had plastic surgery on his face, so his appearance now is naturally not as good as before. There is even an obvious scar on his face due to inadequate plastic surgery technology.

However, in the turbulent situation in Sokovia, tall and strong men have a unique sense of security and charm.

"David, this is Aunt Strong, our neighbor. Do you remember her?" Lina Rogers pulled her son over to say hello. "Aunt Strong?" Rogers looked confused.

"Auntie is old!" Strong didn't care at all and smiled to help Rogers out: "She is so different from when she was young!"

"No, Aunt Strong is still very young." Rogers learned it by himself.

The old lady laughed like a dove.

"David has grown up and knows how to make women happy, which is great!"

Strong laughed and gossiped: "I'll help you arrange and introduce a good girl to David later."

"Yeah!"

Lina Rogers nodded quickly.

After nodding, he suddenly remembered something and looked instantly lonely.

Rogers next to him, like many ordinary young people, showed an awkward but polite smile.

This kind of atmosphere gave Rogers a sense of warmth that he had not felt for a long time. He did not resist this feeling of warmth and was even a little greedy for it. As a result, the memory of David Rogers in his mind became clearer and he identified more and more with this identity.

That’s how bonds are created.

A family and their neighbors were happily shopping at the market when suddenly a group of armed men, armed with live ammunition, rushed in in a modified pickup truck, completely ignoring the crowd on the narrow road and rushing around recklessly.

"Oh no! It's the Viper Gang!" Harry Rogers quickly pulled his youngest son to the side and shouted to his eldest son, "David, get out of the way!"

Both women, Lina and Strong, had already lowered their heads skillfully, revealing their gray hair.

These gangsters have no interest in old women.

Standing in the middle of the road, Rogers suddenly had a memory conflict in his mind. The memory belonging to David Rogers told him that he should get out of the way immediately, but the memory belonging to Steve Rogers resisted doing so.

Even before he was injected with the serum, Steve Rogers had never bowed his head to the gangsters.

"David!"

Harry Rogers, who had retreated to the crowd on the street, noticed his eldest son still standing there stupidly, and shouted anxiously, "What are you doing? Come here!"

The young man in the middle of the street not only did not retreat, but rushed forward reflexively.

Because he saw a frightened little girl in front of the rampaging pickup truck.

The scum in the cab and the thugs in the truck bed not only did not slow down, but instead showed bloodthirsty smiles, as if they were expecting something.

 The plots of the past few days were originally planned to be released together when the game was released on the 21st, so there was some foreshadowing before the climax.

  I hope my brothers can help me and ensure that I can subscribe to the book in the next two days. It has been scheduled to be officially launched on Wednesday, and at least 20 chapters will be updated.
