"The Avengers need to be responsible?" Joanna couldn't help laughing, "Wait a minute, you didn't listen to a word of what I just said. What does this have to do with the Avengers? Why do we need regulation?"

Acheson flipped through the materials, and continued to read the manuscript: "This incident is due to the lack of management of the Avengers, which caused such a bad social impact. According to the incomplete statistics of these two days, the insecurity of Washington residents It has risen by 7 percentage points. You know, after the last New York incident, the insecurity of New Yorkers has only increased by 9 percentage points.”

"Oh, that may be because the people of New York are all superficial people. After all, they have come into contact with alien civilizations."

"In short, the attack on SHIELD has exposed the serious problem of the Avengers' lack of supervision. Therefore, SHIELD cannot be banned and must be retained."

"Wait a minute." Joanna made a pause gesture, "Don't jump to conclusions, let's go through it first. In your opinion, the reason why S.H.I.E.L.D. was attacked was because the Avengers were not favored, and Isn't S.H.I.E.L.D. corrupted by Hydra?"

Acheson swallowed, straightened his neck and said, "That's right."

"Okay, let's discuss this later. If it is true as you said, the reason is the lack of supervision of the Avengers. Shouldn't we hold the supervisor accountable now? The person responsible for supervising the Avengers is Who? S.H.I.E.L.D.! Such a big unit doesn’t do anything, yet you still say that you don’t need to ban it, but continue to use it? Is the finance very rich? Is the taxpayer’s money all blown by the wind?!”

Acheson took a deep breath and replied firmly: "S.H.I.E.L.D. will make mistakes because the remnants of Hydra are hindering the performance of S.H.I.E.L.D. Now the remnants of Hydra have been cleaned up, so we have Reasons to believe that S.H.I.E.L.D. can perform its duties well.”

"I'm really curious where your blind self-confidence comes from. To be honest, I'm starting to suspect that you are a sailor bought by S.H.I.E.L.D." Seeing that Acheson wanted to refute, Joanna hurriedly continued, "Don't mind, I'm just talking casually. I believe that Congress will not be too stingy to make such a joke. I don't doubt whether S.H.I.E.L.D. Are you sure there will be no Hydra members in the future?"

Acheson spread his hands: "Because Captain America has cleaned up all the remnants."

"Did he say that?" Joanna suppressed her anger and looked at Acheson.

"Isn't it?"

"Captain America found out that there were Hydra in S.H.I.E.L.D., far more than everyone imagined, so he took the pressure and risked his life to take S.H.I.E.L.D. That's how it happened. He never published anything about Nine The remarks about whether the remnants of Hydra have been completely wiped out. What you are saying now is confusing the public. You are just leaving a way for yourself. If you discover the remnants of Hydra in the future, you plan to throw the blame on Captain America. Then stay out of it! That's the way it is!"

Acheson touched his neck, showing an expression of "whatever you say, I won't respond anyway".

Lauder, who had never spoken, smiled lightly, and then asked softly, "Is it convenient to ask, what is the relationship between Miss Rickman and Captain America?"

Joanna froze for a moment, then frowned, and asked somewhat defensively, "Why are you asking this?"

"As far as we know, Ms. Rickman and Captain America are... lovers?" Lauder looked up at Joanna, "That is to say, Ms. Rickman's speech today is very likely just to defend Captain America. Strong words here."

Acheson made a look of sudden realization: "Such an inquiry meeting, the related people need to avoid it?"

Natasha said with a dark face: "As for the person involved, I have a deeper interest in this matter than Joanna."

Acheson laughed: "The defendant must also have a chance to make a statement, right?"

Natasha frowned immediately, and before she had time to react, she saw Joanna standing up "squeaky".

Natasha reached out and grabbed Joanna's wrist, and shook her head slightly.

Joanna gently broke away from Natasha's hand: "I'm fine, I just want to stand for a while, I'm not feeling well sitting."

Joanna took a deep breath, feeling a chill in her throat, like the feeling of cold hands and feet in the midst of a war.

"First of all, this is an inquiry session, not a criminal trial. Or is the congressional inquiry session already able to replace the court? Have you asked the Supreme Court for its opinion before the meeting? Don't tell me you are just joking. As Congress Congressman, if such a formal occasion is used for fun, can I think that you think that performing your duties is just for fun? Second, even if this is a criminal trial that violates the judicial power of the court. Why am I avoiding it? Is it wrong for me to speak for Captain America? I think it’s the hell that I speak for you! Or do you have special restrictions on Captain America? Huh? To a man who made great sacrifices and Veterans who have made outstanding contributions have stricter codes of conduct than others? Or, do you have any special requirements for me, a taxpayer who has no criminal record, abides by laws and regulations, and pays taxes as required? Third, from the beginning to the end , you only have two opinions: SHIELD failed to perform its duties well because of the relationship between Hydra, and SHIELD should be retained after Hydra was wiped out. And, although the Avengers did not dispatch in the name of Avengers , but in the process of eliminating Hydra, the people were frightened and the building was smashed, so they need to be responsible for this and need to be supervised.”

"Miss Rickman, we just..."

"You just need to shut up! I haven't finished yet!" Joanna rolled up her sleeves angrily, "Let me first talk about whether the Avengers should be responsible for this incident. Who caused the crisis? ? Hydra! The Hydra in S.H.I.E.L.D.! In desperation, the Avengers took action to turn the tide, and you want the Avengers to be responsible. This is like, you are on fire, and there is a ladle of dung next to you, and passers-by want to Rescue you, pour dung on you, but you ask passers-by to pay for your dirty clothes? You are so capable, why don’t you burn to death?”

Acheson had never seen such a strange metaphor of thinking, and even though Joanna was quiet for a moment, he failed to seize the opportunity to insert a half sentence.

"Then there is the question of whether S.H.I.E.L.D. should be banned. First, S.H.I.E.L.D. has been corrupted by Hydra. Is it? If so, please tell me the name of that person. Let me remind you that all those who participated in the creation of S.H.I.E.L.D. have been honored by the state. If there is really Hydra among them, I would like to ask In a word, what did you do when the country commended it? You dare to commend Hydra, it’s very cool! If there was no Hydra when it was first established, when was it invaded by Hydra? Tell me! You can't even tell the time, so how can we believe that you can prevent similar situations in your future work! Second, you have always emphasized that this incident has a very bad influence on the public, and the Avengers are needed. Responsible, the Avengers need to be supervised. Let me ask you, no one supervised them before? Isn’t SHIELD supervised them? What about the supervision effect? ​​SHIELD can’t even supervise an alliance organization under itself. I said S.H.I.E.L.D. should be kept?! Save your money and waste taxpayers’ money!"

Acheson was speechless, and looked at Joanna in a daze. After a while, he turned his head to Lauder and said, "Sir, I think what she... makes sense."

Lauder's face was not very good-looking, but he didn't say a word.

Acheson came back to his senses, turned back to Joanna firmly and said, "Then we must set up another organization to supervise the Avengers."

Joanna raised her eyebrows: "How about setting up a SHIELD Bureau? I mean, have you been defrauding financial funds for a project recently? Listen to what you're talking about!"

Acheson pursed his mouth aggrievedly, glanced at Joanna, and finally chose to remain silent.

"I think... what Ms. Rickman said... makes sense." From nowhere, a weak voice came out.

"I feel so too."

"Yes."

"Agree with Miss Rickman! The Avengers don't need supervision!"

There were more and more echoing voices, and Joanna, who had always been a little uneasy, now had some confidence.She took a deep breath, straightened her back, raised her chin slightly, and looked at the few people sitting in the middle.

But soon, Joanna's confidence was suppressed by another fear.

In the conference room, some remarks beyond Joanna's expectations began to appear.

"I think Miss Rickman is absolutely right. S.H.I.E.L.D. is trash! It should have been disbanded long ago! Give the Avengers glory and freedom!"

"Don't talk about S.H.I.E.L.D.! Congress is rubbish! It should be disbanded! Return power to the people!"

"That's right! Free the Avengers, free the people!"

Joanna looked at Natasha in a panic, her hands were covered in cold sweat.

Natasha held Joanna's hand, telling her not to panic, and said to her softly, "Say something. Say something that can persuade them to regain their sense."

"What are you talking about?"

"Anything, as long as they don't get so pissed off."

"So..." As soon as Joanna opened her mouth, the entire meeting room suddenly fell silent. She heard her exaggerated heartbeat, like the heartbeat of a person walking alone in a quiet alley in the middle of the night.

Everyone looked at Joanna with different expressions.

"So..." Joanna adjusted her breathing, and said in a calm tone, "I'm not saying that Congress or any organization is evil. I'm just saying that the current situation is really not suitable for keeping S.H.I.E.L.D. In any sense. The Avengers do not need and should not be supervised. The Avengers are heroes who saved the earth. Heroes should not end up in the same fate as criminals. Maybe members of Congress have some ideas of their own, but blindly Putting ideas into action is not the right thing to do. What we need is full argument and discussion, listening to... hearing everyone. That's it."

The meeting room fell into a huge silence, and after a few seconds, a burst of applause suddenly broke out.

Amidst the burst of applause, Joanna, who was next to Natasha, couldn't help shivering.
