Chapter 243: Freedom and Security
"George, are you here to stop me?"
As a gang leader in New York, Jin naturally knows George, the New York sheriff, just like the leader of the martial arts alliance and the leader of the Demon Cult, there are countless love-hate feelings and hatreds between them, and they can make Hollywood make several movies with a random paragraph.
"A soldier catching a thief is like a cat catching a mouse, it's a matter of course." As soon as Sergeant George raised his hand, the officers behind him raised their guns in unison, "Kim, I'm sorry, but this is not a personal vendetta." ”
"Pedantic!" Kim is mercilessly sarcastic. "People will remember everything you did today."
"Maybe." Sheriff George said firmly, "But sometimes, someone has to step up!" ”
As the words fell, half of the officers turned their guns and pointed their weapons at the black female guards.
Everyone was stunned.
Only George shouted loudly as always: "Everyone immediately put down their weapons, spread their feet apart, and lie on the wall with their hands held high, any such unexpected actions will be considered an attack, and the New York police will fight back according to the law!" After speaking, George emphasized again: "Everyone, no exception!" ”
Jin He was stunned at first, then laughed, and he dug into the wall in front of him unabashedly: "George, I like you, really." Would you like to quit your current job and help me out? I guarantee you'll earn ten times as much as you do now! ”
If you say this in front of all New Yorkers, I can't agree even if I want to, but you talk about it in private.
Director George glared at Jin angrily: "I'm sorry, I promised my mother that I would go to heaven to see her in a few years, so thank you for the invitation, I can't accept it." ”
"Hey, you haven't been to hell, how do you know that hell is not as good as heaven?" Jin He glanced at Pierce, who was pale, and said meaningfully: "And I'm also good for you, after all, you may be unemployed after today." ”
Yes, as a New York sheriff, with the salary issued by the New York government, he actually pointed his gun at the master of New York, such an obvious behavior of two or five boys cannot be forgiven no matter where it is placed, and it is simply a taboo in the workplace.
Pierce is really angry now, if he is the deputy director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and a subordinate dares to point a gun at him, then he must let that person go to Antarctica to count penguins. Now he is the boss of New York, a democracy fighter who is not afraid of power and fights for freedom, you George Stacy actually pointed a gun at me, what do you want to do? Want to rebel?
To the rulers, Sheriff George's actions were absolutely outrageous, worse than the wanton use of violence by foreign missions on their own territory.
Because although the former is troublesome, at most it will lose some face, and it will not shake Pierce's roots; The latter, on the other hand, is a blatant subordinate, and if left unchecked, it will directly threaten Pierce's dominance.
Today it is the New York police officers who point their guns at me, and tomorrow it is possible that ordinary people will turn their guns on me, what is this? This is rebellion!
This opening must not be opened!
So Pierce shouted to Sheriff George: "Sheriff, I don't give you the right to point your guns at me and my friends, I order you to return to your post at once, immediately!" ”
"I'm sorry sir, I appreciate everything you did for NYPD before, but" Sheriff George shook his head: "I can't obey this order of yours!" ”
Pierce's angry face jumped, and he sarcastically said, "Is this the loyalty you professed when you joined the company?" ”
"I'm loyal not to a certain person, but to this city." Sergeant George took a deep breath and said, "Sir, I'm a New Yorker in addition to being a police officer. So, lay down your weapons and lie against the wall with your feet apart and your hands held high. ”
As soon as these words came out, Pierce's expression was colorful, and he suddenly became very good-looking.
The firefighter almost burst out laughing.
Seeing the excitement now, the fire prevention girl can be regarded as finding out the bottom of Pierce.
The so-called fighter for democracy does not exist at all, and Pierce is ultimately a speculator who plots to usurp the throne. The reason why he was able to ascend to the throne has nothing to do with the destiny of heaven is entirely based on the contradiction between New York and the federal government; But after he took office, this contradiction was naturally transferred to him, and the New York problem was a human nature problem, and even the federal government could not solve it, let alone Pierce, a newcomer who became a monk halfway.
So this lays the groundwork of contradictions, which can be suppressed under the money offensive in the early stage, but when the situation rises to the level of security, these contradictions will inevitably erupt.
After all, you can make more money when you run out, but everyone has only one life.
Foreign missions are hurting our people in our cities, and you Pierce don't care, so what do we want you to do?
Okay, you don't care, then we'll take care of it ourselves. And the reason for our management is not politically complicated, that is, it is forbidden to fight, after all, this is a law and regulations that even elementary school students understand, so ...... Come on, treat everyone equally, not to mention foreign missions, you Pierce is the same!
But the word "non-discrimination" is a perfect paradise for the people, but a hell of the worst for the rulers.
What am I trying to sit in this position so tired, isn't it just that my life is up to me? Now you're telling me to treat everyone equally, and you're teasing me?
Which Jindan boss have you ever seen pay for groceries?
Thus, the second contradiction arises again.
If Pierce retreats today, then his prestige will inevitably plummet, and he will become a humanoid stamp controlled by the law; If he resists today, the aura of a democracy fighter will be shattered, and the federal government can play a role in this, making Pierce a dictator and then waging a war of liberation full of justice.
That's why Pierce played with Sichuan drama and changed face, and he is now a typical dilemma.
His success lies in the fact that he chose the right time, relying on the rebellion of New York to succeed in ascending to power, but his failure was also the right time, because this rebellion is like a raging bison, the slightest carelessness will knock him into a broken tendon.
Pierce is like a bully in Marvel, success and defeat. The Fire Girl can foresee that his road to rule will be difficult.
But Xiongba is a generation of heroes, and Pierce is also a generation of heroes, and Pierce will return to vitality with a backhand, and Pierce also knows how to save himself from curves, because ...... He has S.H.I.E.L.D.
As a ruler, it is not good to directly override the law, so use the law to fight the law. I can't resist when you point a gun at me, but I can call someone to beat you! The NYPD is not the only law enforcement agency in New York, you represent the law, S.H.I.E.L.D. can also represent the law, you say I'm guilty, S.H.I.E.L.D. just says no!
After all, it was the Hydra S.H.I.E.L.D. branch, and after clearing the backbone such as boiled eggs, S.H.I.E.L.D. became Pierce's personal arm. On the ground, the people of New York were still fighting for democracy with the same hatred, and a shadow suddenly enveloped them, and when they looked up, they saw three huge flying aircraft carriers slowly approaching, like the three-point return of the hegemon, and the hundreds of cannon ports made everyone feel deep despair.
"Please all the people go home now, please go home all the people at once! No one is allowed to remain on the street without first notice, and in case of violation, S.H.I.E.L.D. will have the right to carry out a series of lawful actions such as arrest, imprisonment, interrogation, and other lawful actions for the crime of 'threatening national security', and in serious cases, the possibility of using force cannot be ruled out. Repeat, please go home at once, please go home at once! ”
To put it simply, it's a clearance!
After the clearance, it was naturally Pierce's hand covering the sky.
Jin He looked at the sky carrier with a look of envy: "So power is everything, George, do you know who the biggest gang in New York is now?" ”
Sheriff George is a bastard, so he didn't answer this.
Seeing S.H.I.E.L.D. become a violent agency, the most painful thing is undoubtedly the boiled egg. So the king of agents covered his swollen face and asked his old boss indignantly, "Look what you did?" S.H.I.E.L.D. is a shield, it fights for peace and should not aim its guns at innocent people! ”
"S.H.I.E.L.D. is fighting for peace! If it doesn't show up again, before the federal government calls, New York will start a civil war first! Pierce shouted loudly, calmed down again, and said very rationally: "Fury, the Insight Project can be said to have been initiated by you, and you should understand what its original intention was. Excessive freedom creates excessive problems, it is like a delicious loaf of bread that can only spoil if thrown away. We have to put it away, put it in the crisper, put it in the fridge so that we can keep it healthy. Remember? That is what you said in the Security Council, with which you persuaded those members, and now I hope to use it to convince you. Come back, Fury, and join me in building a new world of freedom! ”
The boiled egg was speechless, and his face was full of hesitation. Although kept in the dark, although secretly set aside, there is one thing to say, the Insight program has been an unprecedented success in the hands of Pierce. The only difference is that the boiled egg intends to use these three sky carriers on the heads of third world countries that have hotbeds of terrorist organizations, while Pierce uses them on everyone, even his own.
From the perspective of equality, Pierce is superior, and it is a "big love" that is broader than ...... boiled eggs!
To be honest, the boiled egg didn't know how to refute, because what Pierce said was what he had in mind. He has always speculated on human nature with malice, and proceeded from the worst point of view in everything, believing that excessive freedom will only cause contradictions, and only by using great power as a guarantee and putting freedom in a box can the people obtain real security.
Yes, safely.
The Insight program was designed to be secure from the start.
The boiled egg looked around, and the people who had originally picked up the guns threw away the guns again under the deterrence of the sky aircraft carrier. There is no doubt that a violent conflict is invisibly defused, and no one is injured or killed. From this point of view, the insight plan is undoubtedly perfect and successful, but I don't know why, after experiencing it myself, I always feel that there is something different from what I expected.
Then, as the sky carrier slowly circled, the other side appeared in people's field of vision, the LOGO of the hydra was painted on the hull of the sky carrier without any obstruction, and the hi hi claws with teeth and claws were like God, overlooking the whole world.
In Dong's life, a dark shadow flew up and fell heavily next to Pierce, smashing a big hole in the ground. He turned his head to look, only to find that it was not something that was flying, but his right-hand man, the Winter Soldier.
He turned his head again in surprise, and saw that the American team had already stood up, and although he was scarred, he still stood up.
"It's not security, it's confinement." The American team wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said breathlessly: "You couldn't have succeeded 70 years ago, and you won't be able to do it 70 years later!" ”
Pierce said with a look of disdain: "What do you know? You're nothing more than a GI, a clown who sells Treasury bills, do you understand politics? Do you know management? Hydra may have made mistakes in the past, but we will try to correct them and try to atone for our sins. 70 years can change a person, and it can also change an organization. Captain, I admire your character, but your vision is too narrow, like an old antique from the Cold War era...... Oh, sorry, I forgot that you were older than the Cold War. ”
"I don't need to apologize, I'm an antique." "I'm out of place in this era, I can't use a bathroom shower, I can't learn a smartphone," he gasped. As you said, I don't know politics and I don't know how to manage, but I'm an old antique who has an incredibly reliable way of telling right from wrong, do you want to hear it? ”
Pierce graciously raised his hand and motioned for you to speak.
The American team pointed to the crowd around them and said unceremoniously: "That's to look at the expression." Look at everyone's expressions, it is not the joy of being protected, but the fear of being oppressed. You say Hydra has changed, I don't believe it. Because the hydra of the past brought fear, the current hydra will still be there! ”
The remarks are loud and clear, although simple, but the truth is unassailable. You Pierce said it was for the people, but why didn't the people smile? You Pierce said it was for safety, but why is it that everyone is in danger, and only fear is written on their faces?
Lies, instantly exposed!
Pierce exasperated: "What nonsense! Why do you deny everything I've done, and what can you do with your scarred body? ”
The American team clenched their fists in front of them and said word by word: "I can fight all day!" ”
Pierce's face turned the color of pig's liver, and he was about to let the sky carrier aim at the American team, but he heard a loud noise from the sky.
When everyone looked up, they saw a huge plane appear out of thin air, its body glowing with electric light, as if it was composed of pixels, like water waves emerging from the clouds.
Pierce was surprised: "This, what is this?" ”
"Stealth technology." Lu Dan said sarcastically: "Didn't you see it from my director's authority? Oh yes, I also added the password, and I forgot the password. ”
"A stealth plane can ......"
Before Pierce finished speaking, he saw a figure jump from the belly of the plane, the man with a pair of strange armbands on his hands, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, two shock waves gushed out, and the sky carrier was tilted, making a rattling sound, so that the originally prepared anti-aircraft artillery fire came to an abrupt end.
Immediately after that, several more people jumped from the belly of the plane, all of them skilled people, they descended in parachutes, and then quickly landed on the deck, and then methodically opened the hatch and headed for the interior of the sky carrier.
There was a loud rumble and gunfire in the headphones, and Pierce asked with an ugly face, "Who are these?" ”
The boiled egg replied, "S.H.I.E.L.D." ”
"The superpower?"
"Naturally, too."
Pierce twitched, "I haven't seen it in the S.H.I.E.L.D. files. ”
Nonsense, this is an unscrupulous queen who shoehorned in to eat empty salaries, and I can't transfer it, so isn't it for me to block myself by writing it in the official file.
Thinking so in his heart, the boiled egg said righteously: "There are many things you don't know. ”
Pierce smiled wryly: "yes, there are many things I don't know. Fury, you've always been so good. But do you think you're the killer? ”
The braised egg looked tight: "What are you going to do?" ”
Piercy said, "Remember? New York is a city of magic. ”
As his words fell, the golden portal strewn with sparks opened, and dozens of mages who originally belonged to the Fire Transmission Department walked out.
Knock! Hit me in the face, right?
The fireproof woman is not happy.
——————————
I'm sorry, I found a farmhouse with my friends in the past two days, and I was going to use my mobile phone to code words, but the will of people is really weak, and a farmer's spring is a little sweet, so I completely succumbed.
PS. Broken is really cool.
Escape......
