"Where is Natasha Romanoff?"

Faced with such a question, even Clint Barton, who knew her best, could only shake his head.

The last communication he received from Romanoff indicated that she needed to do some personal business, and Clint became accustomed to Natasha's elusive behavior.However, this time she disappeared for an unprecedented amount of time, so much so that when the Avengers tracked down clues about Hydra she still hadn't returned.Steve Rogers first asked Agent Hill, and then Clint Barton, but neither received an accurate answer. It seemed that Natasha Romanoff had disappeared from the world.

"If she doesn't want people to find her, then it means there's something she doesn't want us to know." Clint shrugged, "If she needs help, then she will find a way to contact us or leave a clue. I don't I feel like she could be in a worse situation than being captured by Ultron. I know her, she's faced a lot of dilemmas, and she's been able to solve them all."

"I wouldn't have a more optimistic thought if it were me, Clint."

The information network established by the past SHIELD was inherited by the Avengers, and Agent Hill played a huge role in tracking down clues about Hydra.Rogers knew that he would never find what he wanted in the vast documents. Only top intelligence analysts from SHIELD could capture the slippery slime left by Hydra in the dark when it squirmed. Maria Hill carries one of the most precious legacies after the destruction of S.H.I.E.L.D., an information blade forged by countless retired agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Especially when we just traced the traces of Hydra." Captain Rogers sighed, "We need her now."

"In fact, we've been discussing retirement plans, Captain," Clinton said softly, fearing that what he said would set off an overwhelming tsunami.He explained in a panic, and then said, "I know we are both good agents, but Xiaona and I are just ordinary people, and we will retire sooner or later. I have a family, Xiaona..."

"I know, I have seen my comrades who fought alongside me retire, and I will not force you to complete your work. Because of this, the Avengers will absorb new people." Steve Rogers said with a smile, "Sam is The base is adapting very well, and Pietro's ability and information processing speed are far beyond ordinary people. I believe we can eliminate the cancer of Hydra from this world. It won't take long, everything will get better, including you. retirement plan."

"I hope so." Clint shrugged noncommittally, lying back on the leather couch.

He breathed a sigh of relief when Captain Rogers didn't reject his idea. All he wanted now was a sip of cold beer.Luckily, the refrigerator in the Avengers lobby is always full.After Pietro demonstrated at a party how he could empty the refrigerator in one minute and hit it like a rock on the couch, Tony Stark had the logistics department fill the refrigerator more frequently.Clint has always had some thoughts about Pietro. He thinks the Avengers should let Maximoff go to school like his blood relatives. Even though Pietro has a grudge against Hydra, he should still study first. .This is the responsibility that older people like them should have towards young people, instead of letting him stay in the base to train or participate in operations against Hydra.

However, this proposal was rejected by Pietro himself. Tony Stark believed that Pietro should do what he wanted to do.Stark believed that Salomon had already taught Pietro science and engineering, and that the knowledge he now possessed would be sufficient if he were not to pursue an academic career.However, Tony Stark still agreed with part of Clint's statement, especially after he learned about Wanda Maximoff's current academic progress through Natasha Romanoff's news channel. For some reason, With a competitive mentality, he promised to send Pietro to business school after the mission to eliminate Hydra was over, and at least obtain an MBA degree that would allow him to hold a management position in the Stark Group.

"Will Stark participate in this operation?" Thinking of this, Clint couldn't help but ask, "Is he still as enthusiastic about this as ever?"

"No, he still has things to do." Steve Rogers shook his head. "Congress has been questioning the Avengers one after another. The Supreme Court seems to be taking action. He needs to bring his lobbying group... I think Sam and Pietro are enough to handle the rest of the work, there's no need to involve Stark."

"We still have Vision."

"Ah, Vision! He is our intelligence support. And I don't think a few mercenaries need Vision to play, not to mention the recent attitudes of various countries towards artificial intelligence..." Steve Rogers' eyes flickered, hesitating. Do you want to continue talking?Vision is a big trouble. Sixteen intelligence agencies in the United States want to use Vision's power to invade the network and collect information. However, Stark refuses all of them, which makes the Avengers even more unpleasant to the U.S. government.

Agent Hill suddenly walked into the living room and attracted all the attention, and Rogers breathed a sigh of relief.He really doesn't want to transfer the pressure he bears to his team members. He believes that he belongs to the leadership and must conceal some bad news that will have a negative impact on the team members' psychology.

According to his experience during the war, for those high-ranking soldiers who were promoted to officers on the front line, the command method given by their superiors, in addition to providing more combat information, was the principle of "support is coming" - no matter how bad the news on the front line was, the officers They all have to say "Backup is coming, you idiots better hold on if you don't want to die!".

Clint raised his eyebrows and asked why Agent Hill suddenly broke in here.

"Langley was attacked." Although Maria Hill tried her best to keep a serious expression, she could not avoid gloating when she saw her old rival in trouble. "The identity of the attacker is unknown."

"Hydra?"

"Intelligence analysts have given this possibility." Agent Hill nodded. "It may be that the recent tightening of the Avengers has led to this behavior."

"Need help?" Clint asked.

"I think this is impossible. Stark is in Washington, but his application for assistance was rejected. The CIA will never allow others to access their server room, especially someone like Stark who has high technology. Guys. This attack was comparable to the attack on MI[-] headquarters, but Langley's losses were greater. The attackers were filmed escaping from the scene in a modified Quinjet, which almost proved to be Hydra lurking in S.H.I.E.L.D. The actions of the remnants of the Snake Party." Agent Hill moved his lips and struggled to spit out a few words.What little schadenfreude she had left disappeared at the news she knew.

"It was a massacre," she said. "It was a fucking massacre. A lot of CIA agents died, including a supervisor. No one mourned them though."

Two days later, Victoria Hand handed the file to a hooded man.This was the damp, garbage-strewn alley that was ubiquitous in Clinton, where the stinking air lingered over every puddle. She came here just to see this man. "Your former boss, William, is dead. He is your target, isn't he?"

"What do you know?" Frank Castle grinned, "Why did you kill him?"

"I'm sorry, this is not a pleasant thing, but I'm sure it's a coincidence. Our agents made a small mistake while stealing intelligence, and we had to send out more agents to rescue. Your mission in Afghanistan The old boss, William, who ordered the killing of the Homeland Security informant, had just been promoted, and he happened to be in the way.”
