Chapter 96 The first appearance of “imitation”

"It's a tough day, isn't it?"

In the office on the top floor of the Tri-Wing Building in Washington, Pierce held his hands on the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked at the slowly flowing river outside, with an obscure expression on his old face.

"Fury and I have been friends for many years, and he even saved my life." The old man picked up the photo album on the table, looked at the young and vigorous Nick Fury in the photo, and said softly with a slightly gloomy face. .

"So, when I heard that my best friend died for no reason, I was really, really angry. I think you can understand how I feel at the moment."

"Completely understood, sir."

Steve stood in front of the Chairman of the Security Council with his hands behind his back, listening to the other person's meaningful words, nodding slightly, but his brain was running rapidly.

"In that case, let's go back to the most important topic." Pierce slowly turned around and looked at the legendary veteran standing on the other side of the desk with a very serious face, "Why did Nick Fury show up to you?" 's home."

As expected, everyone will ask this question. Captain America is keenly aware that this is a pit, and it is a big pit. If you are not careful, you will fall into it and be shattered.

"" Looking at the old man's sharp eyes, Steve thought of Fury's instructions before he died. He couldn't help but be silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and replied firmly: "Sorry, sir, he told me not to trust anyone."

"I would venture to ask, does this include himself?" Of course Pierce was not satisfied with the answer and asked immediately.

"" At this moment, Steve had only begun to clarify his thoughts, and he still had many doubts about the specific details of the incident, so when faced with the officer's pointed questions, he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Is this problem bothering you, Captain?"

"Sorry, sir, that's all I know." Faced with the old man's questioning, Steve was disgusted with this aggressive interrogation method. He frowned slightly and replied seriously, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. ”

After saying that, he picked up the vibranium shield on the sofa behind him, put it back skillfully, and turned around to leave the room where the atmosphere was gradually becoming stagnant.

"Captain." Pierce coldly called to the tall figure who had opened the door, and said implicitly, "I am a realist. If someone kills my closest comrade, I will use all means to find the murderer. , so if anyone wants to block my way, no matter who it is, he will regret it."

"Understood." Of course Captain America heard this and did not turn around. Instead, he nodded secretly and murmured softly. Then, he walked out of the office and disappeared into the long corridor.

Pierce looked at Steve's leaving back, his face instantly darkened, then he picked up the communicator on the table and issued an order.

On the other side, Captain America walked into the elevator, thinking about every detail of the assassination, and recalling every word Fury said to him.

The words "Can't trust anyone" and "SHIELD has been penetrated" deeply stimulated Steve's heart. This was the second time he had fallen into confusion since he woke up, but this time it was even more difficult for him to accept.

Suddenly, he thought of the mysterious USB flash drive hidden somewhere, which must contain crucial information, so he decided to start from this clue first.

"team leader."

While Steve was concentrating on brainstorming, the elevator stopped at a certain floor, and then several heavily armed special forces members walked in from the outside. When they saw the man in the elevator, they nodded slightly.

"Clarian."

Seeing the person coming, Captain America stopped deducing the plan in his brain and responded softly.

After Rumlow's death, his right-hand man Clariant Cotter unsurprisingly became the new captain of the S.H.I.E.L.D. special operations team and continued to be responsible for handling various emergencies, such as the attack on Nick Fury.

Afterwards, the elevator continued to go down, stopping several times during the process. In just a few minutes, the originally spacious space became overcrowded, and Steve was forced to move among the people, which made the already vigilant him notice something ominous. breath.

"Captain, I'm deeply sorry for the director's tragedy." Perhaps because he realized that the target was aware of it, Clarian tilted his head slightly, intending to distract the other party's attention, "He is a good man, it is really too bad that such a thing happened. .”

"Thank you." Steve nodded, and in response, he whispered, "I'm also deeply sorry for what happened to Rumlow."

After hearing the captain's words, Clarian nodded slightly to express his gratitude, then turned his head, his face suddenly became gloomy.

After the brief conversation ended, Steve continued to look at the strong men around him, and found that everyone around him was very nervous, and some even had a few drops of cold sweat that wet their temples.

"" Seeing this situation, Captain America withdrew his scrutinizing gaze, then took a deep breath, his tone slightly cold, "Before we start, does anyone still want to quit? This is the final warning."

""

"Do it" After a few seconds of silence, following Clarian's order, someone in the dark pressed the emergency brake button on the elevator, and then all the strong men took out the prepared elevators from their clothes and briefcases. The electric baton turned and hit the man in the middle of the elevator.

A melee broke out.

There is no need to elaborate on the battle process. As a super soldier who has been fighting for many years, Steve has extremely high combat qualities. In less than half an hour, he broke through the heavily guarded SHIELD headquarters. Escape.

Then, after three hours of counter-reconnaissance operations, he successfully got rid of the SHIELD agents who were chasing after him, and came to the hospital in New York City. He immediately went to the second floor and walked to an unnoticed area. In the corner, I opened the fire hydrant in front of me, but I couldn't find the USB flash drive hidden in it in advance.

But he was not worried because he saw a beautiful figure and the gadget in the other person's hand.

"Tell me what you know"

Steve pulled Natasha to a storage room, pressed her against the wall a little roughly, and asked in a gloomy voice.

"How come you have this thing? Who gave it to you?" Black Widow did not answer the captain's question immediately, but asked directly.

"Now I ask you to answer me." At this moment, Steve's temper became more and more irritable, because of the dead Fury and because of the still blurry front.

"It was given to you by Fury, right." Natasha speculated quickly without paying attention to the angry man in front of her, "This makes everything clear. SHIELD has been infiltrated, and he doesn't know what to trust. Who, so"

"Don't change the subject and tell me everything you know." Steve couldn't stand the other party's nonsensical answers, so he couldn't help but grab Black Widow's shoulders and shouted sternly.

"" Staring into the captain's extremely serious eyes, Natasha opened her mouth, and then finally answered with some difficulty, "I know who killed Fury."

"Who"

"Back then, Barton and I carried out a mission in Budapest. The goal was to destroy the headquarters facility of a local terrorist organization."

As she spoke, Black Widow's charming eyes suddenly became hazy, apparently immersed in deep memories.

"Everything was going smoothly, and we even thought about where to travel to spend our hard-earned vacation, until we met the master of death who wandered in the gray area."

"Taking Master" Steve heard this name for the first time. He chewed on the two words that were put together and frowned tightly.

"He is a legend in the mercenary world. No one knows his true identity, or in other words, he is the other side of everyone."

"You're kidding." Hearing Natasha's comment, Captain America's eyes widened slightly, his tone full of shock.

"Didn't you fight him before? How did it feel?" Noticing the man's surprised gaze, Black Widow laughed at herself and asked softly.

"It feels like I'm fighting myself." Recalling the brief confrontation last night, Steve's face froze slightly, "To be honest, this feeling is not good."

"This is his talent." Natasha nodded and agreed, "He can completely imitate the enemy's fighting skills and behavior. This is what is scary about him."

"So, his archery skills also came from what Barton learned in that incident." Recalling the miraculous archery skills before, Steve immediately connected it with Hawkeye.

"Otherwise, where do you think he learned these skills?" Black Widow asked, and then expressed her worries, "Although it would be a bit negative to say this, it is very likely that he has learned other skills as time goes by. Some people’s skills, that’s going to make it trickier for him.”

"Wait, can he copy other people's superpowers?" Suddenly, Steve seemed to have thought of some crucial details, and then asked eagerly, "For example, abilities like teleportation and Cyclops."

"Why are you worried that he has copied Ron's ability?" Natasha immediately understood the other party's concerns and couldn't help but comfort her softly, "Judging from the current situation, he shouldn't be able to do this. If he has these abilities, you Do you think he will go to great lengths to formulate an assassination plan?"

"However, we still can't take it lightly." The captain did not relax at all because of the other party's answer. "We must be fully prepared before we get the exact information."

"You're right, but the most important thing now is to reveal the secret of this thing." Black Widow nodded, then shook the small USB flash drive in her hand, revealing a faint smile that charmed all living beings.
