32. Victory, defeat!
"Bang"
Coulson was thrown in the dark alley, the professional agent didn't care about fighting back, and he didn't care about the dirty ground, he held his chest and breathed heavily, coughing as he breathed, his face was in extreme pain, and at that moment, he really felt like he was dying.
Getting air into the lungs again was a newborn experience, and Coulson hadn't had the experience of brushing shoulders with death for a long time.
A figure crouched down in front of the embarrassed agent, and Cyber took the cigar from his mouth with his right hand, and sprayed a puff of smoke into Coulson's face.
"Hey, friend, are you alive?"
"Ahem... Why?"
Coulson rubbed his neck in severe pain and asked with difficulty, "Why is this happening? There's no contradiction between us, is there?"
"Oh, that's right..."
Cyber narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "I went to Detroit some time ago and met a very funny guy, but that's not the point, the point is, from a guy named Ajax, I got a notebook that recorded some trivial things, and that's not the point, Ajax was for that damn Weapon X program, guess what I found out of that notebook?"
Coulson's movements stiffened, and he heard Cyber whisper in his ear,
"My dear Coulson, you've been in charge of that project, haven't you? What is that place called? Three Mile Island, or is it the dam base of Quebec?"
His right hand grabbed Coulson's collar and lifted him off the ground little by little, pulling him towards Cyber's face,
"You're really my best friend... Coulson, aren't you curious why a weak bastard who couldn't even beat a Level 7 agent three years ago suddenly became so powerful... Do you want to know what I've been through for the last three years? Do you want to know who killed Stryker?"
"Do you want to know, what did that bastard do to me?"
Coulson felt an undisguised killing intent from Cyber's voice and from his eyes, as an agent, his mind began to spin wildly, now is not the time to chat casually, now is the moment to endanger his life.
"Wait! Cyber! It's none of the business with me!"
Coulson said quickly, "When you disappeared, when you and the Joker perished, I had already completed the supervision of Project Weapon X, and I had been in the field since then, and this has nothing to do with me!
"And we're just superintendents, Cyber, that's a plan directly under the Department of Defense, and we don't have the right to veto! That plan has nothing to do with S.H.I.E.L.D. ”
"Huh?"
Cyber reached out and put Coulson back on the ground, he took the burned cigar from the corner of his mouth and threw it aside, his right hand patted Coulson on the shoulder, gentle like an old friend he hadn't seen in years,
"I'll give you one last chance... Honestly, Coulson, you lie, I can feel that you don't want to know what happens to you when you lie, trust me. ”
This gentle voice made Coulson shudder, he took a step back slightly, and his already active mind began to beat wildly, and he did not answer Seber immediately, but asked rhetorically,
"Did you find something that would make you think that this Weapon X Project was presided over by S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
Cyber glanced at him, and he could feel the sincerity in Coulson's voice, but he wouldn't be stupid enough to believe him, because he was an agent... It was his job, his instinct, to lie, but after thinking about it for a few seconds, Cyber said,
"There's a guy who claims to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who is responsible for finding living samples for the Ajax testing ground, and I haven't found him yet, but I don't think it's going to be a coincidence, you know what I mean? Coulson, there aren't that many coincidences in this world... Maybe it's your arrogant and impudent bureau chief who secretly set up the game, who can say clearly..."
Coulson was also silent, what Seber said was not impossible, Fury was a very self-contained leader, a genius and experienced agent, if he hid some secret plans from them, if he didn't want them to know, no one would find out.
This matter made Coulson hesitate, and now in this situation, he didn't dare to say anything casually, facing the threatening Cyber in front of him, he hesitated for a moment, and whispered,
"Give me some time, Cyber, and I'll give you an explanation. ”
"Oh, listen to what you say..."
Cyber's right hand reached into the pocket of his coat and pulled out a silver glittering revolver, "How pale, how weak, how laughable... How can I believe you, Coulson, remember the first time we met?"
As he spoke, he turned the nest with one hand, and with great difficulty, he took out a silvery-white bullet with a sharp bullet from it, and then closed the nest, and shook it vigorously, and the nest rolled around quickly, and Cyber looked up and put the pistol against Coulson's head.
The cold touch made the agent close his eyes, and then he heard Cyber say,
"May and Rumlow, right, that guy's name is Rumlow, and they put a gun to my head... Do you know? Coulson, you were in control of the victory back then, I was just a little person, no one cares about the little person, but now, four years later, I still have to tell you..."
"I hate being shot at gunpoint! I hate being threatened! I hate being shot at a nerve in the middle of the night and jumping into my house and putting a bow and arrow at my head! I hate the feeling... Sadly, you have all done it all. ”
Cyber's finger was on the trigger,
"There are five bullets in this gun, pray, Coulson, pray that you are lucky enough..."
"No, Cyber, don't do that! we can do it another way, we can..."
"Bang"
The sound of the firing pin bouncing made all of Coulson's words choke back into his throat, his brain went blank, just now, he brushed shoulders with death, he even heard the screams of death, but luck seemed to be on his side.
Cyber shrugged regretfully, put the bullet in his palm back into the nest, put the gun back in his pocket, he stepped forward and patted Coulson on the shoulder,
"Good luck, man... But don't forget, I'm waiting for your explanation... If you don't come, I'll go find you. ”
As soon as Coulson was about to speak, Cyber's palm slammed on the back of his neck, and his eyes turned white and he fell.
The night's chaos will eventually pass, and after losing most of its electronic equipment, the whole of New York will be like Magneto said to be wild again, and the city will seem to be abandoned, and the next morning, the whole city will be occupied by a crowd of people and protesters.
After the cloak of civilization was brutally torn off, the first time these people who pretended to be free and democratic felt such horror, Eric succeeded in making the most real feeling of humanity facing the crisis appear in the sky over the city of New York, like Gotham in the past, under the chaos caused by the Joker, everyone was caught up in it.
But that has nothing to do with Cyber anymore.
He leaned comfortably on the highest part of Xavier Castle, enjoying the early morning wind, after a night's time, enough energy, his left arm has been recovered, but looking at the white and delicate skin, he knows that it will take at least 3 days to expect this arm to recover its combat effectiveness, the new bones are fragile, but Seb no longer has to endure the strange feeling of the one-armed hero.
"Buzz"
The cacophony of sounds quickly shattered the silence, and when Cyber's eyes under his sunglasses opened, he saw a black helicopter flying in the sky towards Xavier Castle.
It's hard to say how they managed to keep the plane's electronics intact under Magneto's EMP attack, but Cyber wasn't happy when he saw the black and white eagle logo printed on the side of the helicopter, but he also had some faint expectations, Nick Fury...
How much he wanted to punch this guy in the face, but in Professor Charles's territory, he estimated that it would be difficult for him to do so, wearing a purple nightgown, Shi Shiran walked down the stairs, greeted every child he met in a friendly manner, and finally naturally reached out and pushed open the door of the professor's office.
Nick Fury is holding back a breath of anger in his heart, this is for sure, after anyone is tricked, his heart will not be calm, for a spy king like him, just from the falsification of Magneto's information, there are too many things to distinguish, there are internal ghosts in S.H.I.E.L.D!
He looked at Professor Charles, who was sitting across from him, he had no suspicion that the professor in front of him was suspected of being in the same league as Magneto, he was suspicious of anyone, this was a skill that a good agent must have, and of course, he would not turn his suspicion into some kind of realistic accusation without evidence.
"Professor, I want to confirm one thing first... Erik, he's been caught by you, right?"
Nick Fury sat in his chair and said in a very gentle voice, "Thanks to the X-Men for last night's incident." ”
It was a muscular, tall, nearly 2-meter-tall black man, wearing a leather trench coat, lined combat suit, military boots, and a large bald head... The most striking thing is his left eye, which is a black leather blindfold, and the right eye shines with a look that is difficult to describe, containing scrutiny, torture, doubt, oppression, in short, it can be very uncomfortable.
In the face of Fury's politeness, the professor just stretched out his hand and waved, he knew very well that in the face of a person like Fury, you can't relax for a moment.
"So let's get straight to the point. ”
Fury leaned forward, "I'm going to take Erik, his instrument, and that girl... The girl who could activate the instrument besides him, Anna Marie, was mischievous. ”
The professor was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I can give it to you both Eric and the magnetometer, but Anna... You may have to talk to her guardian..."
"Bang"
The door to the office was pushed open, and Cyber, who was wearing big sunglasses and purple pajamas, walked in, leaning on the sofa next to him very casually, and the professor glanced at Fury and pointed at Cyber,
"Oh, Mary's guardian is here..."
"Cyber Hawk!"
Nick Fury's one-eyed eye was on the intruder, "When did you become Anna Marie's guardian?"
"30 minutes ago..."
Cyber shook his hand, "Of course, if you insist, I can let you take it, little naughty, and you can also take the corpses of Coulson, Normanoff, and Patton by the way... And those S.H.I.E.L.D. agents lurking in Gotham City, I promise, you'll receive a body bag every day starting tomorrow, and I think it's going to be very difficult to convince so many people that it's all my fault, right, Mr. Fury, who knows everything?"
"You're in... Threaten me?"
Fury's eyes became dangerous, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became oppressive, Cyber shrugged, he slowly took off his glasses, the red light in his eyes was so thrilling, and there was a cold smile on his face,
"Yes, I'm just threatening you!"
"Just like you used to do to me, how... It's a terrible feeling, Fury. ”
He stretched out a finger and shook it in front of the eyes of the two men,
"I'm not kidding you, great Director Fury, within 24 hours, get all those goddamn agents out of Gotham, I actually don't understand, your ass is about to catch fire, tens of millions of people in New York are waiting for you to save it, how can you still have time for me to argue about this useless stuff here..."
"You have more important things to do, don't you?"
