I used to believe in science

"These cases have rumors and strange stories dating back to the 19th century?"

"Yes." Rhett nodded, and he pointed to some of the red dots, "It's been too long, and it's basically just rumors. I don't understand why Netty collected these, but Sis Mr Tucker insisted on including those. We just found out."

"We compared the maps of Gotham in the corresponding era...and then marked the surrounding terrain at that time...A few of them happened to be near some of Gotham's ancient landmark buildings. Ant-Man found some of them Some old foundations ... the soil tests just came out this morning and it does go back to the nineteenth century."

Rhett paused, he looked into everyone's eyes, knowing that everyone felt creepy in his last sentence, so he said carefully, "I have a guess... This is an organization deeply rooted in Gotham's underground, It has a long and tangled history.”

"And I dug down again, the FBI's database, the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s database, combined with some clues that Hank and Jane found during the field investigation... You should know that Gotham is a very xenophobic city. Their Most of the economic lifeblood is in the hands of local families, and these families have a long history."

Almost everyone in the Avengers gathered in this conference room, like a serious combat meeting for Iron Man's family.

"You mean, the Court of Owls is related to the local family." Steve casually flipped through the materials at hand, he had already read them all, and the serum-enhanced memory could help him find any page he needed at will, He looked up at Tony, who was wearing armor but no helmet.This friend he had known for more than half a year and regarded as a bosom friend, he never thought that the person under the armor would be the billionaire in person, but it would only make him feel better.This shows that Howard's son is much better than those newspaper rumors.

And Antoinette is another kind.Steve studied her files.She was at MIT, and was doing a PhD in engineering and math in astrophysics before she left to study psychology at Stanford.And then she went straight to the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit to help others.

Tony protected her very well, and Antoinette's resume is a perfect good girl.

"This is a very serious accusation." Natasha sat in the corner, recalling that she was not there at the beginning and joined in the middle, but for some reason she followed the details of the entire meeting and caught Emphasis on "You better have enough evidence."

"We don't, we lack professional vision." Banner held his eyes, and he rarely looked directly at the sharp female agent, his voice was still gentle and not a little imposing.

"This shows that you don't know anything about what the agents are supposed to do." Natasha pointed out without hesitation, "We can't start working with these rumors."

"Robin said they got a location." Tony threw a projection on the table, which was a clue he hadn't put in the material before, and he hoped to get more brainstorming before this clue.He flicked the projection, stretched it into a map of Gotham, and spread it across the entire desktop, "There is a place in Gotham's sewer, but there is only one wall at the end, and the scan shows that there is no space behind it, and the architectural dating analysis It was built three years ago, in line with the construction time of this waterway, and there are no flaws."

Natasha looked at the marked point, and raised her eyebrows in a relaxed response, "That only shows that you don't know what agents can do. We are best at finding problems by chasing the wind and shadow."

Antoinette didn't know that she had been here for a few days. She often fell into a coma. The court didn't seem to care about her, and she didn't even send much food.But the good news is that they don't give her much attention.She can be left alone in a corner looking for a way.

Getting the wire out of the corset isn't the hardest part, the hard part is getting the corset off without taking off the coat.She had the good fortune of seeing the trick once when she shared a room with Emily.Now she feels that she should propose to the FBI that this skill be included in the compulsory course of every special agent, male or female.

She had a steel ring just wide enough to fit into the small hole in the door lock. She tried it once and hooked the buckle without much difficulty.There is still a chance.She didn't know where she would go out and what she would encounter.If she couldn't escape once, then the treatment she might face when she was caught would not be as good as it is now.

Fortunately, she didn't have to wait long for this opportunity.

When she was dozing off in a drowsy corner against the wall, the noise from outside across the wall woke her up from her drowsiness.She rushed to the door quickly, leaning against the door and listening carefully outside.The indistinct noisy voice became clearer and clearer, and she even heard heavy footsteps quickly passing by her door.

She waited for a while, and after confirming that there was no one outside the door, she quickly opened the door with the steel wire hidden in her sleeve.

The ground outside the door was a cold stone ground, and it was very uncomfortable to step on it with bare feet, but Antoinette had no condition to worry about comfort now, she looked around, and then chose a direction to run intuitively.

This is a tunnel like a stone cave. The surrounding walls and ceiling are made of rocks.

Antoinette didn't know where she was running. She focused on remembering her steps. At the third left turn at 372 steps, she heard staggering footsteps from the other end of the corridor.

It was a lonely footstep, echoing in the corridor, much louder than the barefooted Antoinette, but from the frequency of the disordered footsteps, it could be heard that the other party was not in a good condition.

Antoinette hid in the corner against the wall, holding the wire tightly in his hand.Her fighting class in the FBI was not very good. Women's physical conditions limited their strength, but Morgan taught her some tricks. If she can make a surprise, there is a high probability of winning.

She held her breath as the footsteps approached, waiting.The other party stopped at the corner, hesitating as if sensing a crisis, they stood in two directions at a corner, confronting the air.

Antoinette looked at the huge shadow projected on the wall, and lost her patience first. She was in a hurry and couldn't wait for more people to arrive. She couldn't deal with more.So she rushed out, jumped up, and judged by the shadow's height, aimed at the opponent's neck and pierced it.

But eventually her wire hit the hard armor and bent.
