"Lin, I have no intention of arguing with you." T'Challa said calmly, "I just think that any public organization needs to act legally so that it can give a convincing explanation for its actions. It's like the police must There must be a police badge, the driver must have a driver's license, no matter how righteous you are, or superb driving skills."

Lin Lan did not immediately respond to the other party's conclusive summary. She found that the topic of whether superheroes should be supervised has too much expandable content. Different positions and different living environments have two extreme definitions of supervision. .It seemed that the reason he said was an explanation that made sense to anyone, but Lin Lan also had hundreds of arguments to refute his argument.

However, this back-and-forth debate is really meaningless. If the merits and demerits of superheroes have to be judged by supervision, then what kind of superheroes are they?The result after entering the establishment can only make the government clearly understand which weapons are "obedient and easy to use" and which weapons are "rebellious and difficult to operate".

The Avengers don't want to be policemen or drivers. They are just a group of "super volunteers" whose brains have been kicked by donkeys and who want to serve all mankind.

As T'Challa, he should also be considered a politician, but his position sounds a little more noble.He is a neighbor of the victimized country, and he has been robbed of a large amount of vibrating gold by the Americans. He will not understand the injustice in the agreement. Those restrictions and restrictions seem reasonable at first glance, but he is not the one who signed the agreement. How could T'Challa delve into the ambiguity and obscurity.

Lin Lan figured it out, and her mood became more cheerful, and she no longer faced the gentle and gentle Prince of Wakanda with an aggressive posture.She calmed down, took a sip of iced Coke, and said, "Anyway, I'm still very happy. You didn't become harsh on me because of the disaster in Lagos. I'm sorry for your attitude just now." .”

Lin Lan doesn't like to argue endlessly with others, especially when the other party still retains self-cultivation under the stimulation of her words, which makes her feel that she is being rude in front of others.

"I'm also glad you didn't walk out of the burger joint right away," T'Challa said with a smile.

Lin Lan took a deep breath: "T'Challa, although I did not participate in the operation in Nigeria, since you all believe that its casualties were caused by the Avengers. As a former member of the Alliance, I would like to give some advice on this issue." The truth as I know it."

"Please say." T'Challa is not a person who likes to hear one-sided words. Maybe tomorrow's hearing may really become a denunciation of the Avengers, and there are many one-sided condemnations.If he could learn something different from Lin Lan, it might be helpful for him to speak at the meeting tomorrow.

T'Challa hopes that he can make the most fair judgment, instead of favoring a certain party because of his good relationship with Nigeria.

Lin Lan said to him: "One week before the captain and the others set off for Nigeria, he contacted the local government officials, hoping that the government could strengthen the security of the biochemical laboratory building, because criminals were already spying on the dangerous goods inside. As a result, the local government gave him Hanging up on being nosy, Steve made multiple attempts to get in touch and eventually earned himself a warning letter warning us to stop the harassment or face international court proceedings for invasion of privacy."

T'Challa responded: "Actually, it's normal for you to be rejected. After all, the Avengers is not a government agency. You...I mean the captain just made a call in his private name. The Lagos government will think it's a prank."

"So I didn't say there's anything wrong with what they did. I was just describing the situation. We're not acting recklessly, and we're trying to avoid casualties." Lin Lan moved her fingers slightly and pulled up a strand of hair , she is secretly manipulating the ants, "The next thing is, we got a visa to Nigeria and entered Lagos smoothly. During the observation period, Steve also contacted the local police many times, hoping that they could cooperate to disperse the civilians, or Covering civilians, but still being rejected."

T'Challa didn't interrupt this time, just nodded slightly.

"What happened next was of course what was described on TV. The two sides fought fiercely and then hit the town. The Avengers tried to avoid harming civilians as much as possible, and even protected them when the enemy kept dropping grenades. .This is not my speculation, you can visit the local residents, if you really want to know the truth." Lin Lan observed his expression and said, "Crossbones was wearing a bomb vest with violent gunpowder. At the moment of the explosion, Wanda originally wanted to use her super power to transfer the danger into the air and keep him away from the onlookers. But, as you can see, Wanda did not do well enough, maybe because of her limited ability, maybe she underestimated the enemy. In short, Before she sent the bomb into the air, it crashed into the residential building, which hit her hard, and she was introspecting all the time, and even once thought that her ability was terrible."

Fortunately, there was a gentle biochemical person who enlightened them during those difficult days, and even Lin Lan could see that there was some kind of affection between them.

T'Challa wanted to say something, but Lin Lan immediately raised his hand to tell him to wait a moment: "Yes, if I were in a residential building, I would hate the Avengers to death, because they made me lie down and get shot; but If I were someone on the ground and I just knew I was going to be burnt to the bone by a high-energy bomb, I think I'd be grateful to them. Of course, I'd be even more grateful if they didn't cost me financially."

"I'm sorry." T'Challa said helplessly, "Actually, I just wanted to say that when the President of Nigeria found my father, he didn't report all the facts. We really don't know what the Avengers did before they acted. Reported, I think they must have not reported those few phone calls, no matter what the content of the phone calls, they should have reported to their superiors for a record, this should be a formal procedure, but they were negligent, so they did not If you dare to tell the details, I will tell my father about it."

T'Challa believed that Lin Lan would not make up lies. It was really unnecessary. He only needed to check to find out whether the call had really been made, and he could even find a way to hear what was on the phone. .

"My narration will definitely be aimed at my own people. Whether it is the truth or not can only be determined by you, just like those offensive words in the news. This is human nature." Lin Lan said frankly, "I Know what they are, but others don't, and they happen to make public mistakes, and they are in another country. So I understand that they are not wronged by the harsh criticism they received, but everything has a priority, and our actions It is indeed spontaneous, and there is no official official material to allow this. But the enemy is now, and terrorists will not wait until we get the qualified documents before doing it."

T'Challa thought for a while and said, "Not exactly. If the Avengers were a legal organization dispatched by the government, there would be no situation where other governments would turn a blind eye. Maybe your connection would be taken seriously from the very beginning."

"Cha, you said it yourself, it's the Nigerian local government's dereliction of duty." Seeing that T'Challa was not convinced, but couldn't find a topic to refute for a while, she said, "You know that Crossbones was imprisoned in the United States. Is it in a small island prison? According to legend, it is a super prison where no prisoner can escape from that place. All the prisoners are locked in vicious gangsters, but a prison robbery happened not long after. When he was imprisoned, he had already He is a disabled person who cannot move his hands and feet, do you think he can handle the matter of contacting the outside world and escaping by himself?"

T'Challa's expression suddenly became serious, which was completely different from his previous amicable expression, which showed that he thought of something quickly.

But he didn't express the conclusion in his heart. After all, this is a problem belonging to the US government. He can know what he knows, but he can't say it blatantly.You must know that a year ago, T’Challa interfered in the internal affairs of other countries in order to help Linlan get rid of the arrest of SHIELD. If it hadn’t been for the collapse of SHIELD and the exposure of a large number of criminal facts, Wakanda would definitely have a headache in order to deal with international disputes for a while.

"I see what you mean," he said.

Lin Lan likes to deal with smart people, and prefers to communicate with reasonable people, because this will make the whole negotiation progress very quickly: "Everyone in the alliance does not feel that they are heroes, and they will not get carried away because of the success of their actions, and they will Not to pass the blame on to someone else just because the operation failed. But have you ever thought that if no one stopped Crossbones from taking the biochemical, maybe there really wouldn't have been sacrifices at that time. What about the future, what will happen in the future, do people really Do you like to think that superheroes are good people only when they are in danger?"

"That's why you don't agree with the agreement, right?" T'Challa took a deep breath, "Because you don't trust the government?"

"We believe that the government has his considerations, but we don't think they will really implement real regulation with selfless dedication. You are also a representative of the government. I don't know if you understand what it feels like to be shot by someone." Lin Lan sighed and drank the Le Ke in one gulp.

The result she can think of is that the government will turn superpowers into personal weapons for them to dispatch. If the action is successful, it will be the government's credit. If the action fails, all responsibilities will be shifted to the object of supervision.The government can use various means to incite the hearts of the people, and the emotions of the people are the most easily shaken. They can love heroes and support everything they have at one moment, but they can question and revil at the next second.

T'Challa suddenly said solemnly: "If the leader responsible for supervising superheroes is qualified enough, he can be absolutely selfless and look at the results of the problem without any favoritism, just like Jesus Christ in the Bible."

Lin Lan wasn't sure if he was implying that Captain America would lead the Superman. If so, she was very pleased with the other party's rationality and recognition of Steve during the negotiation.But Lin Lan knew very well that Steve would not want anyone to compare him to Jesus Christ, not only because he didn't want to be crucified and burned with fire, but because he never thought he was the incarnation of God.

T'Challa continued: "If Captain America can attend the hearing tomorrow, perhaps the content of the agreement will change."

His supplementary explanation made Lin Lan confirm his guess that T'Challa was indeed referring to Captain America.

"Steve has always led superpowers to do the right thing, T'Challa, not standing on the moral high ground to command operations, but everyone is willing to obey his arrangements on the battlefield. Because of his ability and his spirit, let Everyone couldn't help but surround him." Lin Lan said, she leaned back in the chair and stuffed a French fries into her mouth, "But he is also an ordinary person, not a god, let alone selfish. It's just his nobility Character overshadows it all and makes everyone think he is a leader who can never go wrong and can never go wrong."

And Lin Lan didn't want someone to deprive him of the little selfishness he had left, which would undoubtedly be a cruel strangulation for Steve.

T'Challa has other plans: "I mean, only Rogers will sign the agreement. Of course, some adjustments may be made to the content, but not too many adjustments. He can hold a military position in the United Nations. He supervises other members of the Avengers." His Royal Highness obviously thinks this is an excellent solution, "Rodgers was originally a soldier in World War II, and he is familiar with the army, and this can also give the world an explanation."

Lin Lan lowered her head and smiled. There was a hint of sarcasm in the smile, but she quickly returned to normal: "Sounds like a good idea, but..."

"but what?"

Lin Lan stood up suddenly, and at the same time, there was a large-caliber pistol in her hand, and the black barrel was aimed at T'Challa's forehead.She stared at the man in front of her without saying a word, like a high-ranking hunter, Lin Lan pulled the safety catch.Such a distance is absolutely impossible to miss.

Her actions naturally aroused the reaction of the guards. They aimed their guns at T'Challa's head and heart almost at the same time as Lin Lan pointed their guns at T'Challa.

"You should know that your people can't deal with me." Lin Lan said in a threatening tone.

"Yes." T'Challa was not moved by the threat in front of him, but raised his hand and said to the guards, "Put down the gun and sit back in the seat, she will not hurt me."

The leading guard captain nodded and ordered everyone to sit down, but they did not relax their vigilance.

T'Challa has already seen with the naked eye that the muzzles of everyone in the guards are blocked with densely packed bugs. Once they pull the trigger, the muzzles will only be blocked and their hands will be injured.The surveillance cameras in the store were also covered by bugs, and Lin Lan's actions would not leave evidence.As for the owners of the hamburger restaurant, they didn't know when they were trapped in the kitchen, trying to find a way to knock the door open with tools.

Presumably, Lin Lan had planned for a long time, and T'Challa felt extremely admired after finishing all the preparations before the action while talking and laughing.

"Why do you think I won't hurt you?" Lin Lan's arm holding the gun was very steady, "Maybe I will use you to blackmail your father to cancel the hearing."

"Even if you want to do this, you won't use this troublesome way of exposing yourself. I guess your style of doing things is not like this." T'Challa still maintained a kind smile at Lin Lan, "But I have to say, you hold The posture of the gun is very standard, I thought you never used a gun before this."

Lin Lan laughed, and threw the weapon back to its owner, but this action caused all the guards to leave their seats again, and their footsteps were surprisingly unanimous.

"Lin." T'Challa said, "I hope you can turn off the insurance next time."

Lin Lan patted her face, and said apologetically to the guards, "I'm sorry, I rarely use a gun, and I haven't developed a habit."

She has been educated by Barton many times about this problem.

After T'Challa appeased the guards to sit down, he said: "I understand what you just said. You mean to say that superheroes don't need to be supervised, because they won't do things that threaten others. I also believe that you and the captain None." He stopped suddenly, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said, "But please forgive me for not agreeing with your point of view, super warriors are indeed different from ordinary professions, but their nature is the same. As long as they are on this earth If they want to survive online, they must adapt to the society, the system, and the management. Pure freedom will only bring more troubles, no matter to whom.”

Lin Lan immediately replied: "Who can really lead this team, and who can do it without being disturbed by the outside world, Captain America? Of course, he can indeed do it, and he has always carried out this spirit to the end. But who is qualified to manage him?"

Even Thor, the god of thunder, meant that if the United States was inherited by capable people like Sanctuary, Steve Rogers would be the most qualified man in the entire United States of America to ascend to the throne.

"Lin, what you need is a lawful and selfless leader." He emphasized the word "legitimate" again, "Because you are the avengers, you exist for the whole world, and if you deviate from this, you are Abuse of lynching. Even if I don't take sanctions against you, others will, don't you plan for the future?"

"It's planned." Lin Lan replied in a relaxed tone, "Disarmed and returned to the farmland, and live a real life of our own. We plan to have two children and leave New York to develop in China."

After hearing this, T'Challa was at a loss for words.

He thought for a while, and said in a weak tone: "Lin, you suddenly made me feel that Captain America is just too great to be praised by people. He is not as selfless as I imagined. He is avoiding himself. The control measures that should be implemented. Maybe I overestimated him, but I have to say, I am indeed a little disappointed."

"He won't care what you think." Lin Lan said, just when she was about to continue to say something, a text message from Steve came on the phone.

Lin Lan looked down at her phone, her head was buzzing.

"She passed away in her sleep," the text read.

"Lin?" Seeing her suddenly in a trance, T'Challa couldn't help becoming worried. Although they couldn't reach an agreement, T'Challa still regarded Lin Lan as a friend. "What happened?"

"A relative passed away." She said flatly, Lin Lan put the phone back and immediately stood up, "Sorry, I have to go now."

T'Challa also got up and said: "I'm sorry, if you need any help, please do let me know."

Lin Lan shook her head and said to him: "Cha, there is no one in this world who can be truly selfless to the point of detaching from the world. No one can do this, as long as he is an animal whose brain is controlled by emotion. There will always be one thing Something or a person makes him have to break the original rules to satisfy his own selfishness. Such selfishness may be good or bad." Lin Lan paused, "It's like, you deliberately parked the car in front of me, Everyone thought it was my fault for bumping into me. However, only you know the reason for this result in your heart."

T'Challa said in an apologetic tone: "So you are still worrying about the rear-end chase?"

Lin Lan shook her head: "True superheroes don't care what others say about their merits and demerits, they believe in having a clear conscience."

Lin Lan used "they" instead of "us", which shows that she doesn't think she is a hero.

At the end, she added: "I wish the hearing tomorrow a smooth ride."

"A sincere blessing?"

"No."
