Chapter 5 If a person is killed, he will die
"Great, with this evidence, we can take measures against Walter International!"
After reading the information in his hand, Director Mallory showed a look of joy on his face. As the public relations specialist of Vought International, Augustus held the information about the crimes committed by superhumans of Vought International.
The black material is incredibly detailed. With this detailed evidence, Mallory is confident that the superhumans of Vought International will pay the price for their actions.
As the director of the CIA, his thoughts could be so pure. Augustus couldn't help but look at Mrs. Mallory a few more times, but found that her joy did not seem to be staged. Mrs. Mallory was actually
I really thought that if I got the dirty information about Watt International, I could wipe out the whole company in one fell swoop.
Augustus turned his attention to Nick Fury at the desk again, and was pleased to find that Nick Fury was staring at the information in his hand, his brows furrowed, and his eyes seemed to be thinking about something.
Obviously, compared to Director Mallory, Director Fury has realized that these superhuman beings cannot be simply punished by law. Judging from Fury's constant glances at his pants pockets, the director has now begun to consider
Calling Captain Marvel Carol to return to Earth.
"Director Fury, we can work together to report the results of this investigation to Congress. I know that the more important investigation work this time was completed by your SHIELD. I will not comment on this in my investigation report.
, I just hope that we can jointly report it, so as to attract the attention of members of Congress. Walter International can even murder members of Congress. This is really..."
Director Mallory of the CIA suggested to Nick Fury, Director of SHIELD, but Augustus interrupted Mallory:
"With all due respect, Director Mallory, Vought International has investments from Osborne Group, Stark Industries, Pioneer Technology and many other consortiums, and many members of Congress have interests in it. Do you insist?
The only result of the report is that tomorrow's news will report that the director of the CIA and the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. were both killed in the line of duty, and that a man in Queens committed suicide by being shot 30 times in the back."
Director Mallory's smile froze on her face. She had been investigating Vought International for many years, but had never obtained substantive evidence about Vought International. This time she got the incriminating evidence provided by Augustus. She was excited at the same time.
She briefly lost her judgment. After calming down, she had to admit with difficulty that Augustus's idea was correct. Even though Congress knew about the crimes of Walter International, it might not take action against it because of these
Over the past few years, Walter International has been cooperating with the U.S. federal government and has done a lot of things privately that the U.S. federal government cannot do on its own.
Even if he and Nick Fury insist on pursuing this, then as Augustus said, the possibility of "committing suicide" by the three people who provided evidence and made reports is extremely high.
Director Mallory looked at Director Fury and found that Nick Fury was not happy because of the evidence of Vought International in his hand. Instead, he frowned as if thinking about something. Then he knew that Fury was interested in the evidence of Vought International.
Like Augustus, he did not have a positive attitude towards this matter.
As Augustus interrupted Director Mallory's speech, the entire conference room began to fall into silence. Barbara Morse, standing behind Augustus, as an operational agent from the Combat Academy, felt like
Even time slowed down in this silence.
"Then, Mr. Hoffman, since you know that providing this information will not make the superhumans of Vought Company pay for their crimes, why are you willing to take the risk of being purged by Vought Company and hand it over to us?"
What? And as far as I know, you are also a superhuman, will dealing with the Vought Group do you any good?"
After thinking for a long time, Nick Fury finally made a move. He leaned back, inserted his hands into his trouser pockets as if by accident, and then looked at Augustus von Hoffmann standing in the center of the room.
, asked.
"If you have already given up hope of dealing with Vought International through legal means, then what's your plan?"
"Director Fury, since you have asked this question, you must have already guessed the solution I proposed. Your question now is just to confirm your own thoughts, right?"
Looking at Director Fury and Augustus who seem to be sitting behind the desk casually, but are actually suspicious of their own appearance, they are always ready to use a secret beeper to summon Captain Marvel Carol, who is wandering in the universe, back to Earth.
Everyone had a bright smile on their faces.
"Director Fury, although Compound No. 5 has given Vought's superheroes superhuman physiques and various outstanding abilities, in essence, their spirits are just human beings full of weaknesses and flaws.
Their minds are no different from yours or mine, and even because of their powerful abilities, their spirits have become weaker and more twisted, lacking reason and preferring power."
"They are just a group of deformed existences wrapped in hard shells and transformed by artificial talents. They are also human beings."
"As long as you are a human being, you may be killed, and if you are killed, you will die, right?"
Augustus looked at the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., whose expression became increasingly serious, and finally revealed his intentions completely for the first time.
"Director Fury, I am indeed a superhuman, but it is somewhat different from what you think. My power is not strong, and I am well-educated and know that the existence of a group of superhumans who indulge their own desires will
What kind of damage is caused to the world we live in? Their indulgence will make those weak superhumans pay for it, and their arrogance destroys the operating rules of this stable and beautiful world."
