Chapter 504

In the country of free cooking, when has there been such a powerful statement. Normally, the government will only make such declarations to red countries, or terrorists. But now, the intelligence agency, which most people have never heard of, is suddenly showing an unprecedented level of assertiveness.

Countless people only feel that their rights, dignity, and everything has been trampled on. They rose up in revolt, and countless demonstrations and riots filled the whole of New York in an instant.

Although Fury has hinted at the top as much as possible, these things are not something he can master. But no matter what, those demonstrations, the hearings, still happened. As he thought, you can't convince a politician to agree with a view that is different from his political philosophy at any time. Unless you point a gun at him.

Fury really wanted to point a gun at those members of Congress and tell them that if they didn't relent, the previous sudden death might happen again. But after thinking about it, he didn't do it. Instead, he gathered his strength and watched the events unfold.

At the invitation of the courts, the judiciary, Congress and countless others. Fury must attend a hearing to explain to everyone the sudden deaths of tens of thousands of people before it. And certain forces have agreed to make the hearing public like this one around the world.

Fury didn't refuse, just attended with a sarcastic smile.

A member of parliament asked first.

"Please identify yourself."

"My name is Nick Fury, the Supreme Commander of the Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency."

"Then could you please explain, what kind of department is this Territorial Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Bureau?" The legislator had apparently done his homework and was able to name the department in its entirety.

"My department is a violent agency with a focus on intelligence, counter-terrorism, and defense against unknown threats. Also, you can call my department S.H.I.E.L.D. for short. ”

"Okay, then please describe in detail, what is the unknown threat you are talking about?"

"I'm sorry, but I can't talk about those classified missions on such occasions unless there's a Security Council mandate."

"Of course." With a mocking smile, the councillor pulled out a power of attorney. "This is the power of attorney from the Council, and today at this hearing. You have to answer any questions. ”

Fury flipped through the power of attorney. Then he said:

"It's not enough, I need a statement in addition to authorization. Statement issued by the Council. All responsibility for all confidential information that I have disclosed during this hearing should have threatening consequences rests with the Council. After all, if nothing else, I probably won't be free to walk out of this hall today. But before I can do that, there are certain rules that I need to follow.

Fury's words caused a chuckle during the hearing. Then another MP pulled out a statement. They had already been prepared.

"This is the statement you want. All the consequences are borne by the council. However, that doesn't mean you're exempt. Now, is it time to get started? ”

"Understood, ready to start." Fury still had a relaxed expression on his face. This made the atmosphere of the hearing somewhat odd. A group of high-ranking government officials, who don't know what he's sure about. You must know that the leader of a secret agency like him, once he is put on the surface. It's basically the same as scrapping.

"First of all, please explain, what exactly is the unknown threat you are talking about?"

"That's just too much. In 2001, an antimatter comet passed by the Earth in its orbit. We used some sort of stance shift technique to push it away (at the beginning of S.H.I.E.L.D., Coulson casually mentioned this incident when he explained it to Daisy)...... Sorry, I'm not quite sure it's that term. I'm not one of those scientists, after all. If you want to know the details, there is a mission report of more than 1,000 pages in the S.H.I.E.L.D. database. ”

"You're saying that you saved the Earth from a celestial collision? You saved the world? ”

"It's not that simple, but it's understandable."

"However, when you talk about antimatter comets, let's not say whether such a thing exists. As far as I know, no celestial observation department has observed this celestial phenomenon. Why are you the only ones who have observed it? ”

"The reason is simple, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s observation methods are 30 to 40 years higher than the technology of today's best celestial observation departments. Do I understand what I say, sir? ”

"...... S.H.I.E.L.D. has such a current technology, but it only uses it for itself and has never disclosed it to the state?"

"You can ask the council this question. If they agree, I can immediately publish a hundred advanced technologies that don't exist on the market. Is that what you want to see? ”

Fury's words silenced the other side for a while. Then someone asked again.

"Alright, Mr. Fury, we now understand the responsibilities of your department. Thank you so much for your contribution to the world in secret. Now let's get to the subject, and let's talk about the sudden deaths of more than 10,000 people about five days ago. As far as I know, you S.H.I.E.L.D. are responsible for that incident? ”

"Let me first state that the so-called responsibility for that incident is an ambiguous statement. S.H.I.E.L.D. is not a terrorist organization, and we generally don't use that term. Also, yes, that incident was indeed a S.H.I.E.L.D. operation. ”

"Boom...... the entire hearing exploded in an instant. No one would have thought that Fury would admit it. Acknowledging the deaths of more than 12,000 people, is it the pot of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Countless high-ranking members of the judiciary, journalists, representatives of the military, a palpable expression of excitement appeared on their faces.

Fury acknowledged the incident. This means that he is finished, and so is S.H.I.E.L.D. finished. There is no justification for the terrorist act of 12,000 deaths at one time. Fury is pushing S.H.I.E.L.D. into the abyss, and at the same time, many of you are already thinking about dividing up S.H.I.E.L.D.'s resources.

"Please repeat your words, Mr. Fury. You admit that the incident was the work of S.H.I.E.L.D.? ”

"Yes, it was an extreme anti-terrorist operation by S.H.I.E.L.D."

The lawmakers who asked the question were visibly excited.

"Very good, then can you explain what kind of extreme anti-terrorist operation needs to kill more than 10,000 people at once. How do you do that?

As far as I know, most of the people who died were employees of the government and various intelligence services. No matter what level of organization S.H.I.E.L.D. is, no matter how high your authority is, no one is qualified to decide the life and death of so many people in this free world. So, Mr. Fury, you have to explain that. ”

"I can certainly explain, in order to save the world." With Fury's indifferent words, the scene boiled again.
