Chapter Twenty-Four: Pierce's Statement
It's been a day since the raid on the Dead Guys ended, and Nick Fury has stayed in his office without leaving. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The result of this operation can be said to make him unsettled. Although it proves that the resurgence of Hydra is not a rumor, it also proves that things are more complicated and troublesome, and that the Hydra people have infiltrated government officials, and even there may be their undercover agents within S.H.I.E.L.D.
Plagued by these things, Nick Fury barely sleeps through the night. He has been thinking about the possibility that there is an inside line of Hydra in S.H.I.E.L.D. is already very large, and if he wants to dig out this inside line, internal review is necessary and necessary. However, how big should the scope of the review be? Who will try it? How long will the trial last? How strong should the review be? Will it be a simple question-and-answer and investigation, or will it be a lie detector and a forced water supply together? And how can the review be conducted without affecting the normal work of S.H.I.E.L.D.?
There are so many things to consider about these aspects. Da Bang And at present, the personal relationship between the two is not bad, so this is both an old superior and an old friend, so naturally you can be casual and don't have to pay attention to so many rules.
Seeing that it was Pierce coming, Nick Fury immediately greeted him warmly, "Hi, buddy." Why did you come to me and not talk to those WSC guys?"
Buying a joke about Nick Fury, Pierce naturally replied, "World peace can't be based on chatting, it has to be really worked." But you look a little tired. ”
Nick Fury took out a bottle of whiskey from the cupboard, poured it with two glasses, picked one up himself, and pushed one to Pierce, "That's the price of hard work." You should have heard about that, too. ”
"If you're talking about Hydra, I did hear that. Pierce picked up his glass and took a sip, "Also, is it really good to drink during working hours?"
It's been a day, and the minister with level 10 authority knows that this matter is normal, anyway, the secrecy is up to level 10, and no matter what, it can't get past others.
"Are you going to expose me?" Nick Fury laughed, then took another sip, "What do you think about this?"
Pierce put the glass down, "Accident, really surprise. I thought I would only see the name of Hydra in historical documents in this life. Then he glanced at Nick Fury again, "I'm not going to expose you, but if you're drunk, I'll hang you on the rooftop to sober up." ”
Nick Fury took another sip and gave Pierce a defiant look, which means you can't carry me anyway. "I'm also shocked, and even more shocked, that Hydra may have an eyeliner in government officials, or even within S.H.I.E.L.D. ”
Nick Fury said it without reservation, he knew that there were spies planted inside, but he couldn't have imagined that the minister in front of him was the biggest insider. After all, the chairman of a company is a commercial spy for a foreign company, and this kind of thing is really nonsense.
Pierce sighed worriedly, "I've heard the results of the operation, and while we weren't looking, Hydra grew again. Then he blamed himself and said, "I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen when you and I were in charge of S.H.I.E.L.D." ”
Looking at his old friend who blamed himself, Nick Fury comforted, "It's not your responsibility, and it's not too late, now that they've been exposed, I'm going to kill those crazy people sooner or later." ”
Listening to Nick Fury's words, Pierce's left little finger twitched unconsciously, "Okay, this aspect is your strong point, what are you going to do?"
Nick Fury put it down and said, "First of all, we must clean up the inside, we must first ensure the internal security before we can talk about anything else?"
Keeping the inside safe? Then I'm not done. So Pierce took out a cell phone and said, "I have a document here, I think you should look at it, this is an electronic copy, the original is in the evidence room." ”
Nick Fury also took out his phone and swiped it on Pierce's phone, and the file was downloaded. This document is the one that Pierce instructed Hilvert to forge, and it contains a plan for the police department, the police chief who was planted as a member of Hydra and committed suicide by poisoning, for the sake of political performance in order to move up the ranks, is preparing to symbolically suppress the Deadgame Gang, and the time of the operation is the same day as the S.H.I.E.L.D. operation, but it is scheduled for the same night.
Nick Fury read it and immediately understood the significance of the document. It suggests that the little thugs may have just gone out to avoid the limelight because of the police department's actions, and not that someone in S.H.I.E.L.D. leaked secrets, and that it was all a complete coincidence.
After reading it, Nick Fury put his phone aside "Do you believe this document?"
Pierce smiled, "Honestly, I don't believe in a single punctuation." But that's a good excuse, isn't it?"
"Excuses, excuses?" asked Nick Fury, puzzled.
"An excuse not to conduct a global review. Pierce finally said what he was trying to do.
"No global review, why?" Although it has not yet been finalized, Nick Fury prefers to have a global review. But now that Minister Pierce clearly disagrees, it is worth listening to his opinion first.
"Fury, you have to know that S.H.I.E.L.D. is also subject to supervision. Hydra has reappeared, and its personnel have even infiltrated government personnel and S.H.I.E.L.D., such a big matter must be reported to the World Security Council, do you know what they will think?" said Pierce.
It may be the reason why the action faction has always disliked politics, Nick Fury was obviously very impatient when he heard this: "I don't care what those bullshit bureaucrats think, they are all blind, as long as they know the nuclear warheads in the world, and they are still honestly lying in the warehouse, they think that everything is okay with world peace." ”
"World peace, that's the word, the world is too stable now, it's a good thing, but ......" Pierce got up and took steps in the room, "The time when the army is most valued is in the war period, at that time, no matter how much you increase military spending, there will not be too many opinions, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is the same, only when the situation is turbulent, it is the most trusted, hum, I really miss the Cold War period, as if the world war will start in the next moment, that is the golden age of S.H.I.E.L.D." ”
"So, the World Security Council thinks S.H.I.E.L.D. is redundant?" Nick Fury pouted disdainfully. "And I don't miss the Cold War either. ”
