Chapter 5: The Crisis of Trust of the Four Heroes

This kind of hiding from the beginning to the end, from the inside to the outside, is almost unimaginable except for marking out a suspicious area and conducting a carpet investigation.

It is impossible for HDO to do such a thing in a short period of time with the current manpower, and ordinary people always have to cooperate with the local police and guards to do it, the current HDO does not have such influence, and they have no relevant functions - although they are said to belong to S.H.I.E.L.D., but within S.H.I.E.L.D. it is a secret department that even the director does not know.

So their agents can only disguise themselves as FBIs when they go out.

In fact, it can't be said to be a disguise, because Li Zhanyuan, who investigated the vault, took refuge in HDO, and he accepted a large number of places under his group, all of which were filled with HDO agents and sent to all parts of the country, nominally to investigate the circulation of the gold black market, but in fact, each group moved freely.

With the help of Li Zhanyuan's professional skills, HDO has also repeatedly caught the tail of the revenge Shviks, but unfortunately these people are too crazy and blow themselves up at every turn, even if they are chasing, they don't dare to persecute too much, it's just a pity that the clues are broken, if they explode in the crowd, it will be a big mess in the world.

Now the Shviks are also preparing to move, and their activities are becoming more and more frequent, which is naturally because Zhang Jinyang made a televised speech.

Zhang Jinyang announced in the live broadcast that he had given up the protection of the North American Eagle, in fact, most of the cities are pretentious, and the hero image that has been established with great difficulty cannot be destroyed because of this, so many superheroes who were spontaneously paraded by the city people to be retained chose to stay, but they were named in the Avengers.

Among the Avengers, Tony Stark took the lead in saying that he would not participate in the defense of the country and the confrontation with the Super Town, for the simple reason that he said that he had been using the energy core for a long time, the radiation intake was too large, and he awakened the ability of electromagnetic wave absorption, and now he is also a superpower, and he has also joined the Transhumanist Alliance.

He did this because he was afraid that one day he would wake up surrounded by GIs, so that at least someone would rescue him after he was captured.

Jarvison had always been Tony's only visionary, and because of his relationship with the Scarlet Witch and his status as an intelligent being, he wouldn't have gone to war, and he told reporters that he hated being suspected, which was uncomfortable.

Black Widow is nowhere to be found, but she made a statement on the Internet, in a very impatient tone, saying that as long as it is not a hydra, she should not disturb the old lady, she is now busy chasing the watchdog.

Only the Iron Patriot remains, and he resolutely obeys the orders of the Ministry of Defense, but everyone knows that he is just a feldal in order to mix sand in the Avengers, and now that mecha are so popular, Colonel Rhodes is covered in iron and can hit a few nails.

Due to Stark's decision, Pepper Potz also issued a statement that the Stark Group will remain neutral and will not participate in this "painful war against oppression", and when facing reporters, her face flashes orange from time to time, revealing her mutant identity.

What is surprising is that she publicly shouted to the Fantastic Four, who are also mutant heroes, hoping that they will not provide black technology for any party, first of all, the country has always been on guard against people like them, and secondly, once the Super Energy Town is provoked and let them release strategic weapons, the whole world will be unlucky - Shockwave Girl has been missing for a long time, God knows if she is lurking in Yellowstone waiting to deliver a fatal blow to the American continent.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the Stark Group openly giving Richard's studio eye medicine, and they can't get the trust of the Department of Defense, so can the Fantastic Four get it? So what did they give up to make the Federation trust them? Crush people under their tongues, these rumors alone can make this Stark's biggest competitor disgusting for a long time.

Since Tony let himself go and did whatever he wanted with the mission issued by the United Nations to the Avengers, Fantastic Four Studios has grown like never before as a benchmark for cooperation with humans, and the Federation has quickly formed a business conglomerate based on Dr. Richard's various scientific research results to compete with the Stark Group and its allies for economic influence.

But the income generated by this has little to do with the Fantastic Four, they get a good life with whatever they want - but how much money can be spent on personal consumption?

Every month, the Fantastic Four pays dozens of times the taxes they squander, and with the asset chain integrated with the old energy giants, the Four Heroes can easily feed the entire North American Eagle army.

However, the Fantastic Four have no say in this trust, except for the ruffian Thunderbolt who seriously became a rice worm and did not even participate in team actions, everyone else has become busy puppets for various reasons, and is constantly squeezed out of various values by capital.

Unbeknownst to the outside world, the Fantastic Four are on the verge of falling apart - the first to leave is Jonathan, who has been hanging out in bars and parties for a long time, and the government's attitude towards the Fantastic Four has angered him, and he is also confused about his own position.

He is a mutant, no matter how Reed, Ben and Susan use various means to verify their human identity from a scientific point of view, but from the reaction of the people around him, the gaze that looks at him, and the attitude of the Federation towards them, it is clear to him that they are different, they are mutants, and they are something that should be vigiled, studied, and destroyed.

He made friends with the other three heroes behind his back, but these people didn't have the smartest brother-in-law in the world, so they would be hunted down by the Federation, because they had no value except to be tied to the experimental bench, and that strength was a sin.

He wasn't a philosopher, he wasn't a sociologist, he couldn't figure out these things, but he clearly understood that his comfort was in Reed, and if one day, Reed lost his scientific ability, or if someone or organization could replace Reed in scientific research, then they would also be one of the people who were tied to the experimental table.

The instruments developed by his dear brother-in-law would fall on them without hesitation, and he couldn't understand why the so clever Richard and Susan couldn't see this, but instead the impulsive and unscrupulous self and the stupid Ben knew it.

As soon as Zhang Jinyang's declaration of war came out, the Fantastic Four were surrounded by the Ministry of Defense, Richard and Susan They were overwhelmed by numerous research tasks, so Jonathan, who had nothing to do, and Ben, who had quietly withdrawn from scientific research, clearly felt that these people who were sent to "assist" them were their cages.

As Pepper Potz said, why should they be trusted?
