Chapter 99 Conflict in the cinema, showdown in the alley
Steve walked out of the recruitment office, feeling completely lost. His thin body was wrapped in a large windbreaker, making him look so alone under the street lights.
Now Steve had a very depressed look on his face, walking glumly on the way to the cinema. He felt sad that he failed to apply to join the army again. Being alone made him look very lonely.
At this time, there were actually quite a lot of people watching movies in movie theaters across New York City. The war had not yet touched America, where the beautiful country is located, so people still had free time to watch movies.
In order to better mobilize people to actively join the army and enable people to better protect the country, the American government stipulated during World War II that the government's recruitment propaganda film must be broadcast before the movie.
The reason why these recruiting videos are played in movie theaters is actually very simple, because movie theaters are the best place for propaganda, and there are many people going to watch movies in the movie theater.
At this time, Steve was sitting in a movie theater in New York watching a movie, and a black-and-white recruitment propaganda film was playing in the theater.
Everyone was watching attentively, and there was no noise in the entire theater. Only the voices in the promotional video could be heard, and the excited and high-pitched voices were calling people to join the army and serve the country.
"Now Europe is being devastated by the wars of the demons of the Three German Reichs, and they are waiting for reinforcements from our beautiful country."
"Countless able-bodied young people are ready to join the battlefield. Even Jack has contributed. As a child, he is also collecting scrap metal!"
The battlefield in the promotional video is the scene that Steve yearns for. Steve yearns to make contributions to the country and fight against evil, because he has a righteous heart and hopes to serve the country as loyally as his father.
And when Steve saw little children collecting scrap metal, and then using these scrap metals to add more supplies to the country, they would contribute to war and peace.
Steve's whole body suddenly felt full of justice, and at the same time he felt very ashamed, because as an adult, he was not as good as a child, and could only do nothing here.
Of course, there was a mixed crowd in the cinema, and not everyone was like Steve, a good young man who loved his motherland.
There are some idle street gangsters who hang out on the streets all day and then run out to have fun.
For these people who have nothing to do, this kind of promotional video is nothing more than taking up their time. They don't want to see such boring promotional videos at all.
Rather than this boring promotional video, they want to see the beautiful beauties and other content in the video.
At this time, there was a person in the cinema who thought that such a promotional video was a waste of his time. While the promotional video was being played, a disdainful man's voice suddenly sounded from the front row. He yelled for the cinema to play the main film. .
"Who cares? Let's put on the movie!"
This voice resonated in the hearts of all those who had nothing to do almost instantly.
But no one wanted to follow him and they still didn't have the guts to openly break public order.
There were also people who wanted to scold men for this kind of behavior, but when people saw that the person who made the noise turned out to be a tall, muscular man.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, these people finally chose to settle the matter and looked away one after another, pretending not to see it.
After all, just because of this little thing, I got myself into such a big trouble 's really not a good deal, and they don't want to cause trouble.
"Come on! Come on! Let's start the movie!"
Perhaps it was everyone's inaction and indifference that once again encouraged the man's arrogance, and the man actually shouted again with a louder voice.
"Hey, can you shut up?"
"Can you be more respectful? This is a cinema after all, and promotional videos are regulated by the government. Please be more respectful."
While the man was making a fuss, a young man leaned forward and yelled at the man is naturally our American hero, the future Captain America - Steve Rogers.
Steve himself has a strong sense of justice, and he naturally despises people like this who have no patriotism at all.
"What are you talking about, little one?"
What Steve said just now seemed to anger the tall man. He turned around and looked at Steve behind him, and said viciously.
The man actually stood up. The tall figure shrouded Steve's thin body below, making him look oppressive.
"I said can you be quiet and stop!"
"Very good, little one. After the movie is over, just wait."
It was precisely because of these conflicts in the cinema that what happened next happened.
······························································································ In an alley outside the cinema, sewage flowed everywhere, and snack packaging bags thrown out by people after watching the movie were everywhere.
Apart from a few rats disturbed by the sound of fighting, there was only a deformed steel trash can nearby.
All in all, this is just a very dirty and smelly alley.
But in a dirty and smelly alley, there were two figures, one big and one small, confronting each other.
"what!"
Steve only heard a cry of pain, and then he was punched to the ground by the strong man. The huge gap in size and physical fitness still made it impossible for them to have a fair duel.
Steve struggled to get up and swayed left and right like a boxer, trying to break out of the man's pressure.
In fact, since Steve decided to join the army, he himself begged Bucky to train him strictly and wanted to learn good fighting skills from Bucky.
Even though Bucky was very reluctant, after Steve's pleading, he still agreed to teach him how to fight.
Although Steve had learned the fighting skills and his own physical fitness, under the current conditions, he himself could not defeat the strong man in front of him.
However, if Steve can get the weapon himself, he can at least deal with the opponent for a few rounds.
It's a pity that Steve's fake moves were really clumsy, and the man opposite him saw through his intentions at a glance.
As a result, before Steve could get around the opponent, the strong man hit the ground again with a punch as heavy as a thousand punches.
So, our poor Steve was once again beaten unilaterally by someone else! The enemy will not be merciful or extra merciful to Steve just because of his thin body.
Left hook, right hook, bending, kneeling, one set after another of combos hit Steve. There was nothing sloppy about the strong man in front of him, he was merciless when he struck. Attack hard.
Steve faced waves of attacks like waves, just like a boat in the sea, seemingly resigned to his fate.
However, Steve is not an ordinary person. He is a person with tenacious beliefs. Even in the face of this kind of attack, Steve will not give up easily.
