Marvel turns into Iron Man

The blond girl changed into a dark suit and skirt, and now she looks quite different.

It's just that Rogers' eyes were not on his female neighbor, but on the old man beside her.

Although he looks a little older, he still has a full-bodied air of superiority.

Seeing Rogers approaching, the blond and blue-eyed beautiful neighbor also apologized, then turned and left.

"I'm Alexander Pierce, nice to meet you, Captain Rogers."

Minister Pierce stretched out his hand first, and seemed to welcome Rogers' arrival enthusiastically.

"Sir, it's an honor to meet you."

Rogers could only stretch out his hand submissively, held Minister Pierce's hand, and shook it lightly.

"It's an honor—my dad served in the 101st Airborne."

Minister Pierce said, reached out and opened the door of the office, and led Rogers in.

And until this time, Rogers didn't know why the senior officer said that he was honored to know himself.

Because he himself had served in the 101st Airborne Division, and the father in front of him was probably one of his colleagues.

The two of them were in Nick Fury's office at this time.

Rogers was pressed on the sofa by the enthusiastic officer, and then watched the officer pour him a cup of coffee.

But then, Minister Pierce took a brown paper bag from Fury's desk and handed it to him.

Rogers glanced at Minister Pierce in some surprise, and silently opened it.

Inside are several very dated photos, many of which are of Nick Fury when he was young, and each one has Alexander Pierce on it.

“This photo was taken five years after Fury and I met — when I was working at an embassy in Bogota.”

While talking, Minister Pierce took off his suit jacket and put it on the back of the sofa.

"Once, terrorists from the National Liberation Front stormed the embassy, ​​and the bodyguards rescued me, but there were still people inside who were taken hostage."

"Nick was there as the local S.H.I.E.L.D. commander, and he came to me and told me about his plan -- to sneak in through the sewers."

"But I refused and told him that we should negotiate. As a result, the other party did not negotiate with us at all, and even said that they would kill hostages."

"But when they went to the basement to capture the hostages and came out, what they saw was an empty room."

"Nick ignored my orders and conducted unauthorized military operations on foreign soil, saving dozens of lives, including my daughter."

A nostalgic look appeared on his face, as if he was recalling what happened in the past.

"So, because of this, you promoted him, didn't you?"

Rogers looked at the old man sitting opposite him, with no expression on his face.

"Yes, I promoted him, and I have never regretted it."

"Captain, why did Nick show up at your apartment last night?"

Minister Pierce paused, and asked aloud, but he was destined not to get the answer he wanted, because Rogers himself didn't know why.

"So you know your apartment is being monitored?"

"I know, Nick Fury told me."

Rogers shook his head slightly and replied.

"Then he told you that he ordered someone to monitor you?"

But this time, facing Minister Pierce's question, Rogers didn't say anything.

He didn't know what he was going to say, because it seemed to him that he could understand why Nick Fury was listening to his apartment.

Seeing Rogers' reaction, Pierce also had some speculations and guesses in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface.

"Okay...then let me show you how something works."

As he spoke, he reached out and tapped on the touch screen beside the table. Suddenly, the large screen behind Rogers made a sound.

"Who hired you, Bartok?"

Rogers looked back in some surprise, but what he saw was a person who had fought against him not long ago.

George Bartok, wearing only an army green basket top, appeared in front of the camera with a pale complexion.

It can be seen that his complexion is very bad, as if he hasn't had a good rest for a long time.

"Our intelligence agents caught him last night in a not-so-safe safe house in Algiers."

"You mean, this man assassinated Nick Fury?"

Minister Pierce explained, motioning Rogers to continue watching the video.

"Bartok has never been a person who is good at assassination. The water here is very deep and involves a lot."

"He was hired by an anonymous agent to attack our satellite launch ship in the Indian Ocean."

"Employer contacted him via email and paid with online banking."

"The money flowed through seventeen false accounts and ended up in a holding company owned by Jacob Veitch."

He held a document temporarily printed on A4 manuscript paper in his hand, and handed the document to Rogers, talking about the information he knew.

"Is this Jacob Veitch famous?"

Rogers finished the single document and glanced around at what was written on it.

"Not really famous, he died six years ago, and his last address was 1435 Emhurst Street, Washington."

"And when I first met Nick, I knew his mother lived at 1436 Emhurst Street."

Minister Pierce said, shaking his head slowly, his face looked a little ugly.

Even he didn't know who and for what purpose George Bartok hijacked the mobile satellite launch platform.

But he is very clear that the other party's purpose is indeed to hinder the progress of the insight plan.

And Hydra will never allow anyone to hinder the satellite launch, so Minister Pierce intends to check the bottom of the sky.

"So, you mean Fury hired those pirates, but why?"

Rogers actually had some guesses about Natasha's actions deep in his heart, but it was just inconvenient to say it at this time.

"The most credible explanation—he hired pirates to rob the ship in order to cover up his acquisition and sale of confidential information, and it was only the failure of the transaction that caused him to be killed."

Minister Pierce shrugged, spread his hands and explained.

"You should be very clear that he can browse the information in his location database at will, so why do you have to send someone to the ship to get the information?"

"How plausible do you think that is -- if you're familiar with him, you should be well aware that the odds are close to zero."

Rogers' face was still calm, but his eyes were fixed on the old man in front of him, trying to see his reaction clearly.

"That ship has some confidential information that has not been included in the database, which is set by the World Security Council. Even he has no right to browse all the documents."

"That's why I called you over—"
