When Downey Wears a Tin Can [Comprehensive British and American]

Cans

"Focus on New York. The attack on the District of Columbia this morning has come to an end, because Iron Man's timely appearance prevented the matter from further expanding. According to preliminary statistics, the sudden attack by Hydra caused a total of 260 soldiers to be injured and no one was killed. , please see the live report below—”

Tony Stark of "The Great Swimming Man" plays the part.

In front of the vending machine outside the indoor swimming pool.

The man wore a pair of black swimming trunks, with a clear clavicle on the broad shoulders, and darker skin and perfect muscle lines below.He frankly accepted the scrutinizing gazes of the ladies, and even some gazes began to look down boldly——

Tony Stark never minded those things. After all, he trained his muscles not only for him to watch behind closed doors, but now his attention is entirely on the TV hanging on the top of the vending machine.

"The Vault has been blown up for several hours." He took out the bottle of sports drink from under the vending machine and pulled the tab, "Then the media is still reporting the news that doesn't hurt."

In the communicator hanging on the pinna, the smart butler replied: "You can't count on how well-informed the news channels are from those media, Sir, especially after SHIELD has blocked all news."

Governments only want people to see what they want them to know, no matter in any country.

Tony Stark didn't say anything more, he squeezed the can with one hand after drinking the can of drink: "My phone is muted?"

Friday: "From last night, Sir."

Tony Stark: "Has anyone run into a problem and called me trying to get me to help?"

Friday: "You mean?"

Tony Stark glanced at the hanging TV on the vending machine again, then pursed his lips: "It's nothing."

As an artificial intelligence butler, even with super-high interactivity, Friday still can’t really figure out what Tony Stark is thinking like a human being, which probably not many people in New York can do. Perhaps Colonel Rhodes, who has been his friend for many years, can count as half.

So Friday can only analyze it through the background big data system: "Social phobia is also called social anxiety disorder, it is a kind of phobia of neurosis, formerly known as phobic neurosis—"

Tony Stark: "...what the fuck are you talking about?"

Friday: "If you are concerned about this incident, why don't you take the initiative to ask?"

Tony Stark: "Why should I ask others? Do you think my news channels are as lagging as those of the media? Or can the firewall of S.H.I.E.L.D. stop me?"

Friday: "But knowing about it and offering to help are two different things, Sir."

Tony Stark: "Finding out that I'm not Iron Man now, they sent me down, and I rushed to help them will make my labor very cheap, that's the real neurosis."

At this time, the director's voice came from the loudspeaker on the set: "Get in position, prepare for the sixth scene of the fourth scene!"

Tony Stark pulled off the swimming goggles on the top of his head, put them on in front of his eyes with a snap, and walked towards the set: "And I reached an agreement with that big star yesterday, so all I have to do so far is help He's acting." After speaking, the man casually threw the crushed soda can into the trash can, and then cursed in a low voice, "Damn it, why would I listen to him."

Friday: "However, as far as the background data can currently search, SHIELD has not yet located the exact location of Hydra, and this time they invaded and killed many people. Post-war events and internal problems have made them I can't spare my hands to help the Avengers solve other things."

Tony Stark: "That's their business too, it has nothing to do with me."

Friday: "If it's your decision—"

Tony Stark: "So I don't have to be tied down by some sense of responsibility. I don't owe them anything."

Friday: "..."

Tony Stark: "Those sayings that with great power comes great responsibility are all meant to lie to children."

At this moment, the host's voice came from the hanging TV: "Now I will break an urgent news for you. It has been confirmed that Hydra has invaded S.H.I.E.L.D. — Baron Heinrich Zemo, and so far, the outside world has not received any news from S.H.I.E.L.D. I think that as legal citizens, we deserve an explanation."

Obviously, S.H.I.E.L.D. has been in such a hurry that it leaked the news, allowing the media to directly dig out what they thought was the truth.

Things are more serious than they imagined.

Friday: "..."

Tony Stark: "..."

The man walked through the corridor and stopped at the swimming pool, which was the entrance of the studio. He looked at the director who was waving his arms frantically to organize those extras to stand. After a moment of pause.

Tony Stark: "...help me check the subway nearby, and the number to Wall Street."

Friday: "Smart satellite positioning recommends that you take a taxi directly. The nearest subway station is three kilometers away."

Tony Stark: "You pay?"

Friday: "Locating the Parsons Avenue subway station for you—"

The Avengers Conference Hall.

All the incidents that broke out in one day are enough to keep the forces in the entire New York State, including the United Nations Congress, busy.

The events and death statistics from the Dome were brought to the Avengers by Agent Hill after the secret meeting of S.H.I.E.L.D. that lasted for four hours.

A week later, the six Avengers gathered at the same conference table again.

"This is not an impromptu action."

Without any polite words or opening remarks, after entering the conference hall and placing the printed materials in front of each Avenger, Agent Hill said directly: "This is the data analyzed from the damaged equipment of the Hydra at the scene. , The information we can get about the function and power is very vague, but at least in terms of material, it does not belong to the earth, so they escaped our most advanced security system."

After the agent finished speaking, he pulled out another report from the light screen: "The monitoring system at the scene has been completely destroyed. The conjecture of the whole incident is based on the dictation of the surviving agents."

"Hydra deliberately provoked the war from the beginning of the Siberian Glacier incident and then pretended to be defeated, and then led us to put all their soldiers in the dome prison to achieve their joint purpose of robbing the prison."

Dr. Banner couldn't help but said: "But how can they be sure that we will definitely send those prisoners to the Dome Prison?"

Natasha, who was sitting opposite the doctor, looked up at Downey who was next to the doctor, and said directly, "Undercover."

It is not the first time someone has raised the issue of Hydra undercover in S.H.I.E.L.D. The most recent time was when Tony Stark almost smashed half of S.H.I.E.L.D. with his steel armor.

Agent Hill did not deny: "The director speculates that they have more than one undercover agent, and they are likely to be among the agents above the seventh level. The result of assigning them to the Dome Prison seems to be the result of an intelligent system, but how much artificial influence there is? people know."

Agent Hill pursed his lips and pulled out the last document: "This is a document issued by the United Nations Council half an hour ago. They asked us to finish this matter within three days, otherwise Aegis will be withdrawn. All of the bureau's military access, including our right to interface directly with the Avengers, you know, they've always believed that the stewardship of the League should go to the government."

The captain frowned: "I think they should be very clear that the Avengers have never been affiliated with any government organization."

Agent Hill: "So they're going to take S.H.I.E.L.D. first."

The captain looked at the document in front of him with the seal of the United Nations Congress, and after a while: "I see."

He turned his head to look at Downey who had been silently staring at the death list in front of him since just now: "Tony."

Downey was sitting on Steve's left. He didn't look up. After hearing the words, he just folded up the document and put it in the folder with small movements, and then said: "We only tracked down the location of Professor Charles. Figuring out where other people need to rebuild a tracking system will take at least ten hours."

The conference hall fell into a moment of silence. After a while, Steve stood up from his seat: "It just takes time to settle the mutants from Xavier College, Saul, come back to Westchester with me. I will I will find opportunities to communicate with people from the United Nations.”

Natasha also stood up: "Barton and I are going to solve the post-war problems of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Dr. Banner pushed his glasses: "Then I will stay in the alliance and work with Tony to decipher their anti-tracking system."

They decided on their respective action plans almost immediately, and after the meeting ended, two Quinjet fighter jets set off from the top of the alliance one after another. It was not until they flew out of the Manhattan airspace that Downey slowly stood up from the chair in the conference room.

He walked into the common work room on the second floor.

"Are you okay?" Dr. Banner, who had already turned on the device, sat in front of the light screen, and couldn't help asking after seeing Downey walk in, "You've been silent since the meeting."

Downey sat opposite the doctor, and pulled out the virtual light screen in front of him: "I'm fine."

The doctor stopped what he was doing, turned around and handed over the box on the table: "Agent Hill has been waiting outside for a long time, but you haven't come out, so she asked me to pass this to you."

A very ordinary white box, Downey reached out to take it, and frowned after seeing the name on the box.

Dr. Banner looked away: "Is it because of those S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who died today?" He said with a sigh: "I thought you were used to this kind of thing."

Donnie didn't speak, and didn't continue to open the box. He sat there for a while and then stood up: "I'll go down for a while."

Dr. Banner looked at the back of Downey who disappeared into the workshop with the box in his arms, and looked again at the light screen full of complex data in front of him: "Is it because of those S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who died?"

The voice of the smart butler came from the workshop: "I think so."

The doctor sighed. "I thought we were used to this kind of thing."

After leaving the workshop, Downey returned to the meeting hall just now. He dug out the death list that he had unconsciously put in it just now from his file folder, and sure enough, he saw the same name on the box inside. .

Frank, Melinda's subordinate, came to the Avengers with Melinda last time, and he even remembered the appearance of that person, a very energetic young guy.

Downey still remembered that when Hill stated those events calmly, every knuckle of the hand holding the pen was turning white.

No one feels at ease in the face of such a large number of deaths, they just don't habitually show their emotions on their faces.

—He'll get used to it sooner or later.

Downey silently put the box aside.

——As long as he stays in this world for a day.

He thought so, and according to Agent Hill, he planned to give the box to the real Tony Stark.So he took out his phone, turned on the screen, and then saw a message from Tony Stark on it——

67 missed calls.

Downey: "???"

He subconsciously raised his head to look out the window, and then he didn't know whether it was accident or expectation, and saw that familiar face.

The tall man was still standing at the edge of the garden in the small Avengers plaza, his dark blue eyes were staring at this place, with a nasty expression on his face, his eyes were already on the verge of impatience, when he realized that Downey finally saw him After that, he reached out and poked the phone in his hand hard.

Downey felt that he probably understood what Tony Stark meant, as if he was emphasizing the seriousness of a problem, and he was accusing him with actions: "I called you 67 times!"

And this is not the worst, the worst is.

He didn't answer any of them.

Downey: "..."
