Superhero Damage Control [Comprehensive]

The judge had to adjourn. During the adjournment, Lucy and Nick met in the boiling water room. Neither of them spoke first, as if it was a long wrestling.Finally Nick lowered his eyes: "Nice job."

Lucy took the compliment that didn't quite look like a compliment: "Thank you."

Fury snorted coldly: "I didn't expect you to find Professor Silvig, but he was admitted to a mental hospital after the Battle of New York (from "Thor 2"), and no doctor has been able to prove that he Recovered, his testimony is invalid."

Lucy suddenly felt a little sorry for Fury. Seeing what she had driven him to, she shook her head: "Professor Silvig is the last witness who can help you. You really have to accuse him of being a criminal in court." Do mental patients absolve themselves of guilt?"

"You didn't give me another choice, did you?" Fury said.

Lucy shrugged and turned to leave: "No, people always have a choice. Whether a person is worthy of being called a hero is determined not by what he does in the end, but by what he does every time he faces a dilemma. Choice, this is what Bucky once said to me. Last time, I conspired with Washington behind his back and nearly pissed him off..."

Fury looked at Lucy's back, lost in thought.

The judge reopened the court session. Fury's lawyer took out an appraisal report, proving that Professor Silvig was still mentally ill. His testimony was invalid. Seeing the appraisal certificate, Silvig felt as if he had been slapped severely. , looking at Fury in disbelief, not understanding why he was abandoned by his friends.

The last person to be questioned was Nick Fury himself.

Matthew stood up, leaning on his blind stick, and came to Nick Fury. He listened to Nick Fury's heartbeat, and began to ask: "Professor Silvig has been judged to have a history of mental illness, but you have not, So, may I ask, did you tell Professor Silvig that you explored the Rubik's Cube to gain power?"

Fury looked up slightly: "I am citing the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution."

Matthew asked persistently: "Did you explore the Rubik's Cube with ambition when you knew the origin of the Rubik's Cube? After the Battle of New York, you started the Insight Project with the same purpose?"

"I am citing the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution."

Nick Fury's defense attorney yelled, "No, Your Honor, this is wild speculation!"

"The objection is valid."

"May I ask if you extradited the war criminal Loki Odinson to Asgard without the consent of the New York City government and the United States government, and you yourself let Thor claim that before Rocky Odinson could be officially tried?" Will you send him back to Asgard just to make the Battle of New York look like a natural disaster?"

"I am citing the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution."

Fury's defense lawyer almost jumped on the table and threw himself on Matthew: "No, Your Honor, it has nothing to do with this case, and it is suspected of coercing a confession!"

"The objection is valid."

The second riot started in the court. Many people stood up, waving their arms and shouting at Nick Fury. The judge had to hit his small hammer violently: "Everyone, we are here to conduct a fair game." Judgment, instead of unleashing our hatred with our prejudices. Murdoch, please return."

The court continued. Nick Fury's defense lawyer finally had his say. He came to Nick and hinted at him with his eyes: "Professor Silvig is controlled by Loki. In the report, you record that Eagle Seeing that Clinton Barton was also controlled by Loki for a period of time, and you were involved with both of them at the same time, and even faced Loki directly, are you sure you are not controlled by Loki?"

Lucy pulled out a mocking smile, oh my god, she didn't expect Fury's lawyer to do this, he was trying to defend the innocence of a mental patient, if Fury couldn't prove himself that he was not controlled by Loki However, they can only go to Asgard to find Loki for trial to disprove the authenticity of Nick's testimony.

Fury didn't answer, he saw the mocking smile on the corner of Lucy's mouth, and he remembered her words.

Everyone has choices.

It is not what he can do that determines what kind of person he becomes, but how he chooses.

Fury's lawyer still said very proudly: "This is my question. How did Director Fury escape from Rocky's control when he was surrounded by two people controlled by Rocky, and even Rocky himself? I think The investigation and evidence collection is still not perfect, I..."

"I plead guilty," Nick Fury said.

Fury's lawyer looked at him in disbelief as if he had swallowed a fly.

"Your Honor." Nick seemed to have made a decision that was hard for him to digest. He was absolutely unwilling, but in the end he still made that decision. He chose to face himself, "I plead guilty, I know This is a public trial, maybe someone is sitting in front of the computer, watching me on the TV, and I will explain my reasons."

His image was uploaded to Times Square in New York, and everyone stopped to watch Director S.H.I.E.L.D.'s trial.

"I know that in your eyes, I am no different from the Red Skull, but I always firmly believe that I am for 'protection'. I joined SHIELD for protection, not for conquest. I admit that I operated the Rubik's Cube in violation of regulations, I am here to grab its power, because the earth is always not safe, it needs to fight threats, fight evil, fight contradictions, there are alien forces 50 times stronger than us in space, if we don't have the same power to protect ourselves, don't we To be slaughtered?"

Someone was already whispering to him, and Fury bowed his head, but that didn't mean remorse.

"Yes, this time it was the Rubik's Cube that attracted Loki and the Kiritas, but what about the next time? What if they just fell in love with Earth for no reason? I plead guilty, everything you said is true, but I Think the planet needs to be prepared, and we're empty-handed."

The court was unexpectedly quiet, and the judge dropped the hammer crisply, and the ending was self-evident.

Fury was eventually taken away, and before he left, Lucy asked to talk.

Fury looked at the plainly dressed woman, who looked unpretentious, and it was this woman who made him lose: "You won, and I won, and I chose who I want to be."

Lucy picked out an envelope and handed it to Fury.

"what is this?"

"Don't take it apart now, go to the car and look again."

Fury took the envelope and got into the car through the back door without thinking. He didn't dare to go through the front door because it was surrounded by people waiting outside. He rolled up the window and opened the letter.

After he saw the above content clearly, Fury took a deep breath, his eyes were sore uncontrollably, his elbow was pressed against the car door, and his mouth was covered. What he held was a long list , signed by Tony Stark and Bucky Barnes, they believe that Nick Fury worked hard to prevent New York from suffering deeper losses during the Battle of New York, completed his fighting mission, and can seek amnesty.

This is Lucy's last retreat for Fu Rui, and the premise is that Fu Rui pleaded guilty.

The people of New York v. S.H.I.E.L.D. ended in a complete victory. The whole city celebrated for three days, and various stores had big discounts. various activities.But not everyone starts the holidays as carefree as they do.

Nick Fury is gone, and he's left with an unavoidable problem.

Is outer space really safe?

Are we really empty-handed now?

"I have to admit that Nick Fury's views are correct in some respects." New York Mayor Hender Ryder said in a speech after the trial, "I recently met with the mayor of Midtown, and I was like a student. Ask him for his opinion. As we all know, Midtown is the city with the best law and order in all large and medium-sized cities in the United States. The crime rate is far lower than that of New York. After the appearance of The Flash, the crime rate has almost dropped below 6%. As the mayor, I On behalf of the citizens of New York, thank the superheroes who saved us, and extend an invitation to them to continue protecting our city, and invite them to participate in the Superhero Watcher Project!"

Four hours later, the city council passed the "superhero watchman" proposal.

This means that similar to Captain America, Iron Man, Black Widow and anyone with special skills and super powers, as long as he is willing to receive supporting training, he can obtain legal rescue qualifications.During the training process, they have to go through countless psychological tests, investigation training, and inquiry training to ensure that they will become heroes with sound minds and the ability to control themselves. The procuratorate, the state assembly, the local police department, and other personnel departments can all come to propose cooperation intentions, and the superhero himself can choose the department he wants to cooperate with.

It's like a two-way selection job fair.

And this bill even includes masked heroes. The bill clearly stipulates that masked heroes can participate in training and be included in the watch plan, and do not need to register their real identity, age, ethnicity, etc.The proposal is even more lenient towards these superheroes, and does not forcefully delegate any execution tasks, but if they cooperate with official actions, their behavior will be subject to official jurisdiction.

This also means that they can officially become consultants of government agencies and at the same time enjoy very flexible freedom, but correspondingly, superheroes can only stop crimes, but cannot arrest criminals.

Not everyone can accept this motion. J.J. James, the editor-in-chief of the "Daily Horn", once again took Spider-Man to the knife: "If Spider-Man is declared legal without taking off his hood, then I will let me Everyone in the newspaper is wearing Spider-Man suits to enforce the law! I will never let such a ridiculous thing happen!"

He actually did, and just after the first batch of heroes trained by the "Watchmen" program graduated from fifteen weeks of training and were given licenses, J.J. James sent a dozen reporters to fill the streets in Spider-Man suits Instead of the real "Spider-Man" law enforcement.

However, when he went to the police station to provoke him wearing Spider-Man's clothes, he was caught by the police and pushed him into the police car. He yelled: "I am Spider-Man!! I am Spider-Man!!"

Then the police took out a device that he had never seen before, took a photo on him, and the device made a mechanical sound: "Unrecognizable, identity verification failed."

The real Spider-Man walks past James with his spider webs, the police took a photo on him, and the instrument sounded again: "Identification, Z0-2, Spider-Man."

Spider-Man flicked the almost fake spider mask made by James himself: "Old James, you must not have read the security details of the bill. It said that Wayne Technology and Stark Industries jointly manufactured an instrument that can authenticate masked heroes. .”

Zeta Lightwave, one of the Watchtower's Kryptonian technologies (from "Young Justice"), shared by Wayne Technology and Stark Technology, can collect the biological characteristics of each trained hero without revealing the true identity. In case of identity authentication. Video of J.J. James' arrest has been posted online, reassuring many who still have doubts about the legalization of masked heroes.

"J.J. James, the editor-in-chief of "Daily Horn", was arrested on suspicion of violating public safety by pretending to be Spider-Man. The person in charge of Spider-Man's agency stated that he reserves the right to prosecute. A "Evening News" reports for you..."

Lucy lay panting on top of Bucky before the end of "Evening News", they had just finished a bed fight, although Lucy thought it was a bit strange to listen to the news of Spiderman and Bucky in bed, but What better time to celebrate than this?

Bucky gently wiped the sweat off Lucy's back. Every time he saw Lucy lying on top of him like a lazy cat, he felt as if he had snatched the most beautiful thing in the world. treasure.

"If we only let our cute little heroes receive ordinary training, their value will not be reflected at all. I plan to establish an Avengers Academy in Detroit to train superheroes. How about you as an instructor?" Lucy Draw a circle on Bucky's chest, "I've talked to the mayor of Detroit and the governor of Michigan, that city has only 60 people, after the Great Depression of the auto industry, the city basically lost its value, middle-aged people They are all on the verge of unemployment, and the public security is not very good. The Avengers Academy will create many opportunities, research and development departments, cooperation departments...we can rejuvenate this city."

"Oh... About this..." Bucky took out a pair of black-rimmed glasses from the bedside table, pretending to be serious, "give me a proposal, and I will think about it carefully."

Lucy slapped off her ridiculous glasses with a laugh, and got out of bed to make herself something to eat.

Fury resigned, Maria Hill resigned, and after being nominated and nominated, Phil Coulson officially became the acting director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and he was officially appointed as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. after half a year of investigation.It seemed like it was over, but Lucy knew it wasn't over. The shadow of Steve Rogers had been haunting her, and she had asked Natasha and Coulson to investigate the background of all the seventh-level agents a few weeks ago. , but nothing.

"Your suspicions about them are groundless, Ron." Clint—Hawkeye, he was the first batch of people who resigned from S.H.I.E.L.D., not because he was disappointed in Fury, but because he was loyal to Fury.Before the situation deteriorated, he knew that Nick could not escape this catastrophe. Nick would definitely step down. He didn't want to cooperate with people he didn't know well, so he chose Titan and signed the Avengers Agreement. Tony and the others work together, the work is not important, the appetite of the people who cooperate is important.

Natasha also had doubts.Lucy simply expressed her doubts: "What if someone is influencing Fury? What if someone encourages Fury to constantly break the boundaries? Shouldn't we be careful about such people? Look at Fury's behavior like Like a hydra, what if—the real hydra still exists?"

Natasha and Hawkeye looked at each other, and Natasha said hesitantly: "It's not unfounded for you to be so suspicious, but Hydra has been wiped out."

"What?" Lucy couldn't believe it.

Clint said: "This file has not been declassified, and only agents above level 80 have access to it, but it happened too early and no one paid attention to it. In the [-]s, there was a man named Arnim Zola The remnants of Hydra, he has always wanted to infiltrate Hydra into S.H.I.E.L.D., but it seems that Hydra has internal strife. Dr. Zola was killed by Mrs. Hydra, and then their whereabouts were revealed, and their stronghold was investigated. All were wiped out by the Strategic Science Corps (predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D., led by Peggy Carter)."

Lucy desperately wanted to know what was going on, but she couldn't apply for access to the file, but then Natasha went to the archives to check it herself, and told Lucy all the contents in violation of the regulations.Later, Lucy asked the machine to check the authenticity based on some details, and even went to Carter to verify, but the result was just as Clint said.

Hydra has been destroyed.

Maybe there is really no Hydra in this world?Maybe the Insight Project is really just Fury's idea?Lucy could only comfort herself in this way.

She turned off the stove, peppered her bacon, and returned to the bedroom with the plate. Bucky was staring at her mobile phone in a daze. Lucy had never seen him with such an expression, as if she had experienced great grief and suddenly learned Stunning news, pain and joy intertwined into a strange picture on his face.

When Bucky saw her, he woke up like a dream. He took a long, deep breath and controlled his trembling voice: "SHIELD—they found Steve in Siberia."
