Chapter 225 Negotiation Who is responsible
(The update is back to normal, and there will be a change in the evening!) )
In the face of such a strong Zhou Yi, Bruce. What else could Banner say? You must know that his biggest reliance, Hulk, was defeated at the hands of the person in front of him. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info can't defeat Dawn Knight with Hulk's invincible attitude, let alone a helpless scientific researcher.
Besides, he had heard the whole story from Jennifer's mouth, and the reason for all this was his own oversensitivity. Thinking of this, I thought of Times Square, which was almost in ruins because of the impact of their battle. Bruce. A bitter smile tugged at the corners of Banner's mouth.
"I'm sorry, Knight of Dawn. Everything is my fault and I apologize to you for my previous recklessness and stupidity! When he said this, Bruce seemed to hear Hulk from the depths of his heart let out a reluctant and helpless growl.
And for Zhou Yi, this is what he wants. He defeated the angry warrior Hulk by force, while at the same time morally subduing the clever and wise Bruce. Banner, let him apologize himself. That's enough for him.
"I accept your apology, Mr. Banner. Now that my promise is still valid, I will be on your side until you make your choice. ”
Hearing this, Bruce. Banner's face immediately showed a look of surprise. He knew what Zhou Yi's assurance meant, which meant that no one could force him to make a choice he was not willing to make. He is still free, and nothing can take away his freedom.
At this moment, he sincerely thanked Zhou Yi and truly apologized for what he had done before. He didn't say it, but Betty, who was standing next to him, seemed to feel his emotion. She took Bruce's hand and smiled softly at him.
The tacit understanding between the two people gave them a feeling that everything was in their hands at the moment. Although they did not communicate with each other, they already had a common decision in their hearts. If you owe a favor, you have to pay it back.
Coulson, who didn't expect Zhou Yi to say such a thing, was still a little surprised with surprise on his face. He had already prepared a lot of statements, but now because of Zhou Yi's words, he had to give up most of them. This made him can't help but glance at Zhou Yi with a resentful eye, humanity is a loss to friends, and this is probably what it looks like.
But even if he had a lot of complaints in his heart, it was impossible for him to really complain to Zhou Yi. Because that was the original position between them, Zhou Yi is a superhero, and he has to take Bruce into account. Banner's life is free. Coulson, on the other hand, is an agent, and the mission is all he has. This is an inevitable conflict, so he is unwilling to let Zhou Yilai accommodate him in the name of friendship. Because that would only change the color of their friendship.
Friendship has not yet been cheap to this extent in his heart. So Coulson knew very well what to do.
"Mr. Banner, we should find an opportunity to talk. Do you think it's okay now? "This is Bruce. What Banner had foreseen in his heart, he knew that there was no escape from it. Instead of running away, it is better to solve this matter while there is a solid backer now. So he took Betty's hand and nodded vigorously.
"Yes, we can talk now!"
"Something important is going to happen, but it doesn't require me to be there. Should I leave? After all, the more secrets you know, the sooner you die. This is the case in movies and comics. The little spider still hanging upside down said that the current situation no longer seemed to be suitable for him to stay. But he really didn't know how to leave. Because of the reason why Zhou Yi was standing here, there was already a heavy pressure in his heart.
You must know that compared to the Knight of Dawn, whether it is ability or seniority, he is not half a point. Dawn Knight is a world-recognized superhero, and he lives a miserable life in New York City, where he has a mixed reputation and is wanted. When I think about this kind of thing, the little spider's eyes are full of tears.
"Of course, we never had the idea of restricting anyone's freedom!" Coulson said, thinking about Bruce. Banner made his point clear. But Bruce only smiled at his statement, because he had already seen clearly what kind of virtue this kind of government department was.
But the little spider hasn't reached this level of enlightenment, and it has nothing to do with him. All he wanted was a reason to leave, and now that Coulson had given him such a reason, he was naturally running fast.
For him, standing with a monster-level guy like Dawn Knight was a bit too depressing. And if you accidentally provoke him, with your little arms and legs, it is really not enough to take two hits. The little spider knows the power of his mouth cannon. So he made a choice quite wisely, and at this time, it was really the best plan.
No one was going to stop the spider from slipping away, Bruce didn't have the ability, and they had to thank the spider for bringing Betty safely. And Coulson was greeted by the above, and he didn't have to touch the little spider too much at this time. As for Zhou Yi, he knew the true identity of the little spider, and there was no reason to do such a thing.
So the little spider slipped away quite smoothly. But that's why a lot of people don't target him, after all, compared to Hulk. The spider is not so important.
"Bruce. Mr. Banner. I guess I should start by introducing myself. I'm Phil from S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Coulson, who is responsible for the handling of this emergency. At the same time, it also includes how to deal with your problems! ”
"Deal with me?" With a backer, Bruce is not so easily intimidated. "I'm sorry I don't understand what you said, what do you mean by handling?"
"Mr. Banner, do you know how much damage you have caused this time?" Instead of answering his question head-on, Coulson asked something seemingly unrelated. And as soon as this sentence was asked. Bruce. Banner fell silent.
This is an unavoidable question. As a man who still has a conscience and justice in his heart, it is impossible for Bruce to pluck all the mistakes made by the Hulk from himself. Hulk is his alternate identity, and naturally he is also responsible for what Hulk did.
Coulson saw what he wanted from his silence, and he said with a straight face.
"This time, the entire Broadway Avenue and Columbia University were severely damaged. We estimate that the direct economic losses will be at least $8 billion. And that's not even counting casualties. Not counting the soldiers who died in battle, there were dozens of civilian casualties alone. Many people have lost their homes, their jobs, because of this sudden man-made disaster. About these, as the cause of everything. Mr. Banner, what do you think? ”
As a guy with a weak character, Bruce. Banner has never had the kind of domineering and consciousness that can be successful in one go. By the time Coulson said these words, he had consciously taken all his sins upon himself.
Because Coulson was not wrong in what he said, he was the cause of everything. If it weren't for him coming to New York, there would be no evil, no army coming, and no big battle coming after. And without that, those losses, those lives lost, and those who were displaced, who lost their jobs, would be fine. They will live their own plain but happy lives, not affected by any disasters at all.
It's all because of him, and he's the root of sin. As soon as this thought came out, it couldn't even stop. He even began to develop a self-loathing mentality, a pessimistic attitude that immortality was not enough to anger the people.
Watching Bruce grab his head in pain, Betty hugged him silently. This is the only way she can share the pain for him. And the rest watched him silently, watching him make decisions.
Bruce seemed to have made up his mind, and he was about to speak. Zhou Yi said a sentence first.
"Mr. Banner, before you speak. I think you should think about the question of whether this is to blame you or the military's crazy super soldier program. The impact of this plan is not limited to what Hulk did. Radiant City is still cleaning up the remnants of Resident Evil, and like the Hulk, it's a product of this plan. ”
"So in my opinion, the military should be the culprit, and you don't need to take it on yourself. And, in terms of the damage caused, I don't think I'm much less than you! ”
It's an alternative comfort, and it's also a way to tell him who's really responsible. If the Hulk is guilty, should the military who forced the Hulk to commit such a crime be more likely to be punished? You must know that in the final analysis, even the birth of the Hulk is inseparable from the US military.
Since completely getting rid of the arms business in his hands, Zhou Yi has been very fond of attacking the prestige of the military. Of course, even without this stubble, he often does this kind of thing. Peers are enemies, and the world's police and superheroes don't deal with each other in the first place.
It was a breakthrough in his thinking, but Bruce didn't choose to use it as an excuse to get rid of the guilt in his heart. Wrong is wrong, and as a wise man, he understands this very well. Hulk's actions are not something that can be blamed on the military. There had to be another way for him to sweep away this guilt and gain inner redemption.
So he asked Coulson this question.
"If I joined you, what would you want to do to pay for what the Hulk has done? How are you going to compensate those who have been destroyed, those who have been hurt? ”
Coulson pondered. On this subject he can say that everything is in good place. But he knew it didn't work. Bruce. Banner wasn't stupid, he could hear it. So he still chose to tell the truth.
"We will hold the military accountable for all the damage that has occurred this time, and we will urge the military to compensate all those affected. At the same time, we will also arrange for treatment and other assistance issues as much as possible. You have to know that we are just a secret service organization after all, not a civil department. We can only urge them, not replace them! ”
"That's not enough, it's not enough!" Bruce shook his head, what he heard was a far cry from what he had thought. "If that's all there is, it doesn't matter if Hulk Plus joins you or not. These are the things that the government is doing, not the price you pay for me! ”
"You know, Mr. Banner. If you join us, we can help you keep the Hulk under control and stop you from becoming one of those monsters who only know how to destroy. At the same time, our medical team can also decipher the problem in your body. We can save a lot of people, and those can be credited to you! ”
"You can also make more weapons, to cause more killing and destruction. That's all for me, too! ”
Bruce said something like this, and it meant that there was a complete rift in the communication between them.
