Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 210 Hawke's Broken Left Arm (First Update!)

It was evening!

Stacy Apartments.

"Helen."

"Oh, God!"

Upon opening the door, Helen saw Hawke following Gwen in and exclaimed in surprise, "Hawk, what's wrong?"

Hawke, whose left arm was in a cast and sling, said in a relaxed tone, "It's nothing, I just fell down while changing the curtains."

Helen gasped again, covering her mouth in surprise.

Hawke, meeting Helen's genuinely concerned gaze, suddenly felt a sense of guilt.

but……

It's all Gwen's fault.

Hawke glanced at his fiancée, who had entered the house first, out of the corner of his eye.

Gwen ignored Hawke's gaze and said without looking away, "It's okay, Mom. The doctor said it's a minor fracture, and I'll be fine after a month of rest and recuperation."

Hearing the commotion, George came down the stairs from the second floor.

Helen quickly called to George, "George, come quick, Hawke is injured."

George walked over, his gaze falling on the cast and bandages on Hawke's left arm.

"what happened?"

"Small things."

Hawke was concise, after all, Gwen hadn't told him much, and he didn't know what George and Gwen had talked about.

and so!
It's best to talk less.

Anyway, he is a person who is taciturn and not good at speaking.

"Just like I said on the phone, I lost my balance and fell while changing the bedroom curtains, and then we went to New Amsterdam Hospital immediately."

Gwen chimed in, looking at George: "Otherwise, what do you think I went to the hospital with Hawke that night for? To see the scenery?"

Yes.

They were seen that night when they took Sharon Carter to New Amsterdam Hospital, or more precisely, they were seen on their way back from the hospital. The patrol officer who saw them happened to be from the 21st Precinct, so George found out.

Did my daughter go to the hospital last night?

That's not bad.

George immediately called Gwen to ask what was going on.

Tell me the truth?

That's definitely not an option. If George knew that she had come face to face with the infamous Hydra, and even managed to evade their threats twice, he would surely go crazy.

Moreover, Commander Victoria Hand and others were still at home at the time. If George had come, things would have been really complicated.

In a flash, Gwen came up with a perfectly reasonable excuse.

Hawke broke his left arm, and they went to the hospital to have it put in a cast and bandages.

That's why Hawke has this look.

Hawke was stunned and speechless when he heard Gwen's words: "Then why am I the one who got hurt, and not you?"

Gwen's explanation is impeccable.

“I’ve lived at home for so many years without getting hurt, but less than a year after we got engaged, I broke my left arm. What do you think Dad’s reaction will be when he finds out?”

"...He will take you back."

Hawke was silent for a moment before giving this answer.

Heart to heart.

If he has a daughter in the future, she will run away with a wild boar and live with him. As a result, her arm will be broken in less than a year, and she will run to the hospital in the middle of the night.

hiss!
Hawke will explode.

no doubt.

If Gwen had said she went to the hospital because she was injured, George would definitely have been furious.

only……

Hawke looked at Gwen with some hesitation: "If I really have to wear bandages for a month, can't I just pretend to be in a strait? If all else fails, I can just not see George for a month, right?"

who is he.

Hawk Phoenix.

S.H.I.E.L.D. was a Hydra dual-system certified Dark Lord, and he single-handedly destroyed Hydra's ambition for a second attempt, even scaring Strucker so much that he ran away without looking back and went into hiding.

One second he had thwarted Hydra's plot, and the next he was in a sling?

Is this appropriate?

Hawke was a little conflicted at the time, but Gwen's explanation made him willingly go with her to New York SHIELD and then fake a broken left arm.

Gwen only said two sentences.

first sentence.

“Dad is a veteran police chief. If he didn’t see it for himself, he might have gone to the hospital to ask.”

second sentence.

"Look on the bright side, even though you have to pretend to be sick for a month, you can do absolutely nothing during that month, not even in bed."

"Done!"

Hawke, almost without hesitation, looked at his fiancée with a serious expression after Gwen finished speaking: "Let's make a plan."

A plan is definitely needed.

As Gwen said, George is an old sheriff, and no one can guarantee that George won't suddenly find out and go to the hospital to check Hawke's medical records.

However, there is no need to worry about this.

The New York S.H.I.E.L.D. team handled everything, not only getting the hospital records sorted out, but also removing the cast from Hawke's left arm.

It's lightweight and breathable, completely unlike the stuffy feel of 99% of plaster on the market.

really.

After Hawke appeared, his body in a cast and slings, George softly told him to be careful, wished him a speedy recovery, and said nothing more. But Hawke knew that if Gwen had entered the house with a cast and slings, it would have been a different story.

The moment Gwen stepped inside, George could be pointing a Glock 19 at her head.

Fortunately, we managed to smooth things over.

Moreover, because Hawke was injured, Helen did not keep the two of them after dinner this time. Instead, she urged them to go back quickly. Before leaving, she specifically told Gwen not to bully Hawke just because he was injured.

Hawke smiled.

Gwen remained silent.

When the two returned home, Hawke had already gone to bed early. Although he was a little unaccustomed to suddenly losing his left arm, he felt it didn't matter when he thought about the reward he would receive for losing his left arm.

Gwen, who had just come out of the bathroom, rolled her eyes at Hawke, who was lying on the bed and smiling warmly at her. But thinking of her promise, she still took off her pajamas and went over to him.

the next day.

Hawke looked refreshed, wearing shorts and lying on the living room sofa with a smile on his face.

of course.

His left arm was still in a cast.

Gwen, rubbing her lower back as she came downstairs, looked at Hawke, who was sprawled on the sofa like a paralyzed man, and twitched her lips: "I suddenly regret getting you hurt."

Hawke chuckled: "Then tell George the truth."

Again.

Play pig eat tiger?

What the hell is this? Showing off in front of others and crushing everyone with superior levels is how new transmigration novels are supposed to be.

That's what he believes, and that's what he's always done.

But others don't think that way.

For example, Aegis.

Take Gwen for example.

S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't want him to be exposed to the public eye, even now that Thor has appeared.

But Thor is an alien after all, and no matter how powerful he is, those who know about him can only feel envy and jealousy.

But Hawke is different.

He's a native Earthling, and those who know him might envy him, be jealous of him, but most likely hate him.

I hate that others have it, and I hate that they don't.

Human nature is inherently evil; that's the prevailing view.

S.H.I.E.L.D. had no doubt that once Hawk was exposed to the public eye, the first reaction would not be to worship him like Thor, but rather to wonder if they could take his place, for example, by capturing Hawk and learning the secret of why he was so strong.

Hawke didn't care about it.

In a word.

He loved war the most.

But S.H.I.E.L.D. can't do that, since no one can guarantee that some exceptional genius won't anger Hawke to the point of destroying the Earth.

Although the probability is very low, what if it happens?

This is why S.H.I.E.L.D. actively helped Hawke conceal his identity.

As for Gwen.

Gwen rolled her eyes at Hawke, who looked completely indifferent, and then said seriously, "Your secret can only be known by me."

Hawke knew that this answer was not what his fiancée truly thought.

but……

"Okay, you decide. I'll listen to you."

"good."

Gwen smiled brightly, then sat down next to Hawke, glanced at Hawke's thigh that he casually placed on her lap, then looked at Hawke and changed the subject, saying, "Hawk, Hydra's second strike, such a big thing, has it all just been settled like that?"

Hawke chuckled. "Big? Not really. If Sharon hadn't come to our house for help, you probably wouldn't have known what happened."

Hydra's second struggle took place inside S.H.I.E.L.D.

S.H.I.E.L.D. itself is a secret organization.

In addition, because of his intervention, Natasha did not completely release the information about S.H.I.E.L.D. online this time.

and so……

The most sensational news yesterday was undoubtedly the crash of the Helicarrier Insight over Washington, D.C., and the reappearance of Thor and Tony Stark.

However, the official explanation has already been provided.

This was a temporary joint exercise conducted by the Pentagon, along with Iron Man Tony Stark and Thor, aimed at enhancing humanity's defenses against dangers when venturing into space in the future.

Although this explanation sounds a bit far-fetched.

But most people still believed it.

After all, 70% of the federal population follows the path of happy ignorance, and some people even believe that someone can inject disinfectant directly. So, when faced with the Pentagon's slightly more reasonable explanation, what reason is there not to believe it?

Gwen blinked.

"So, Sharon and Commander Hand are alright too?"

"I don't know."

Hawke shook his head, thought for a moment, and looked at Gwen: "It shouldn't be directly abolished by the Five Good People."

After the Hydra incident, it's impossible for S.H.I.E.L.D. to say it had no impact.

but……

No matter how the Security Council deals with S.H.I.E.L.D., it certainly won't be like the original storyline, where they simply downsize S.H.I.E.L.D. and let it naturally disappear.

The most important thing.

It's all because of Hawke!
