Chapter 170: Clues, digging pits
"Sir, a lady asked me to give this to you." A waiter crept in and gently placed a note on the table in front of Meng Ao and Tony, looking humble and respectful. Even if he didn't know who borrowed the hotel venue this time, but now seeing Tony Stark's handsome old face is enough.
For a man who has made countless men hate, love and envy, Tony Stark's face and fame are much better than some celebrities. Of course, these fame are not because he has come up with any great research, most of them are because of his scandals and exposure with various celebrity supermodels. Although these hot scandals have not been out for a while recently.
"Ma'am?" Tony Stark took the note with a smile, shook it proudly at Meng Ao, and bet, "Let's guess, I bet that lady is looking for me." But if you need it, I can give it to you. β
Faced with Tony's bet method of believing that he would win, Meng Ao was suddenly helpless: "You haven't read it yet, and you have already made a judgment?" β
"It's simple. In contrast, how many banquets have you attended? How many women have you hooked up with at a banquet again? Is there a fraction of the party I attended and hooked up? I'm experienced in this matter! I used to receive small notes like this, and I could throw them in sacks and bags like all kinds of cocktail invitations. Tony Stark mocked mercilessly, showing off in passing.
"Pepper, Tony didn't mean that." Meng Ao suddenly said to the front with a helpless expression.
"Pepper?" Tony followed Meng Ao's gaze in fright, and found that it was empty, but after being teased by Meng Ao, he was relieved and at the same time, he was a little angry after being hammered through the disguise.
After establishing a relationship with Pepper, although he still can't help but steal it occasionally. But he's really honest most of the time. Even if it's stealing, it's also sneaky, try to carry the little pepper on your back. Although he knew very well that it was difficult for him to hide this little action from Pepper.
But compared to the past, I took my female companion home, and then left each other in the morning without care. Letting Pepper deal with those women's jerk behavior has changed a lot. At least that gesture proves that Tony now has a clear conscience when he does these things. And worried about the opinion and affection of Pepper Pepper Pepper Potts.
"Don't scare me, Pepper's status has come up lately, and it's hard for me to have the upper hand in front of her like I used to. To paraphrase a sentence, Little Pepper, who became the CEO of Stark, has been full of majesty recently. not only manages Stark Enterprises, but also manages a boyfriend named Tony Stark by the way. Tony glared at Meng Ao.
"Look at the note, I don't think anything good is written on it." After Meng Ao played Tony, he turned his attention to the note in Meng Ao's hand. It's not that he wants to see the contents of the note. It was purely that he saw the familiar mark on the back of the paper, which was almost impossible to see without paying attention, and which was very faintly imprinted.
Tony put down his glass, unfolded the note, glanced at it in front of his eyes, and then decisively threw it out like a hot hand, "Damn, why are they everywhere?" β
"Who? S.H.I.E.L.D.? Meng Ao picked up the note that Tony had thrown away and took a look at it, it was just a brief room number and address, with a beautiful font and a feminine softness. If it weren't for the signing of Natasha Romanoff below, it would be a lot like the kind of drink party invitation that Tony said.
"Can't we see it? It's as if the waiter hasn't come, and if he has come, we haven't seen it. Tony Stark looked at Meng Ao expectantly. Built yì.
"I'm afraid not, I saw a man who didn't fit in with his surroundings, but was always everywhere." Meng Ao looked ahead, and his tone was a little hazy. Tony Stark also followed Meng Ao's gaze forward, and his eyesight was not bad, and he was suddenly speechless.
Phil Coulson, who was in a straight suit, was standing in front of them with the old god there, and when he saw the eyes of Meng Ao and Tony, he smiled and waved to the two of them cordially and familiarly. It means that I see you, and I see you see me.
"We continue to drink." Tony Stark scooped up the bottle and looked away. Said to Meng Ao. Apparently trying to selectively pretend to be blind. He really didn't like S.H.I.E.L.D. very much.
"Let's go, maybe there's something wrong with him? I'd also like to ask Lady Viper about the follow-up. Meng Ao got up and invited Tony: "I've been a bit ruthless lately. Now that it's out, I feel like I need to add some information. β
"That's what you say. It's much more comfortable for me to look at the other person's face. I'm still waiting for that answer. Tony Stark stood up and said with Meng Ao.
"Director Fury is waiting for you." When Meng Ao and Tony walked in, Phil Coulson came up and said a word.
"Let's go." Meng Ao recalled the room number plate on the note.
"I'll help you stop the overly enthusiastic reporters and guests, just go up yourself." Phil Coulson nodded back.
Meng Ao and Tony walked in the hallway, and Tony rubbed the long note in his hand and complained: "It's always just me who gives other people's room numbers, or plays directly with beautiful women in long-term private rooms, but now I've degenerated to the point where I need to find my own room, and there is a one-eyed man in the room." Is this it? Tony stood still in front of a door.
"This is it." The door unexpectedly opened from the inside, and Agent Natasha Romanoff, dressed in a black ladies' dress, was leaning in front of the open door, looking at Tony. Apparently she had been listening to the movement outside, and had heard Tony's complaints that he hadn't lowered his voice.
"Nick has been waiting inside for a while, please come in." Natasha Romanoff stepped aside and invited both Men'o and Tony. After Meng Ao and Tony entered, they cautiously glanced outside before closing the door.
Seeing Natasha Romanoff's obviously sensitive movements, Meng Ao's heart already had a bad tone for this meeting. After seeing Nick Fury, the one-eyed director sitting at the end of the Malaysian Golden Knife in the room, Meng Ao sat down on the sofa opposite him and said, "It doesn't seem like it's going to be a good thing this time, is it?" β
"It's a good thing that I'm not looking for you." Nick Fury is candid.
"That's why I don't like you." Tony interjected, "When I see you, I see trouble." I'm not afraid of trouble, but I don't like strangers who always cause me trouble. β
"I'm sorry about that, but be honest. The two of you have Rise S.H.I.E.L.D. have also helped a lot. I had a great relationship with Dr. Mendel and Howard Stark......"
"What happened to Nick?" Meng Ao interrupted Nick Fury's words, "Cheng DΓΉ is so strict that he needs you to build a relationship with us. β
Nick Fury's eyes wandered over Mono and Tony, his face tense. In a somewhat low tone, he said, "Lady Viper is dead." β
Natasha Romanoff's coquettish face also revealed strictness.
"I want to ask if I heard you right, the Viper Lady you spoke. Is it the evil woman we tied up in Japan, not someone with a duplicate code name with her? Tony Stark gestured twice with his fingers and took the lead.
"Yes, it's the one Meng Ao was in Japanese captivity, the Lady Viper, one of the current heads of the Hydra Organization." Nick Fury nodded in acknowledgement.
"Seriously, I don't really care if she dies or not, that kind of crazy woman I think it's better to die." Tony Stark said: "But the question is, did she recruit it? Did she say that my parents' car accident was an accident or was it man-made? β
"If she recruits all of them. I don't care if she's alive or dead. Nick Fury frustrated his hands helplessly: "She obviously understands this herself. β
"You're a violent organization, huh?" Tony and Meng Ao glanced at each other, and said in a strange tone: "When you interrogate such an extremely dangerous crazy person, do you still pay attention to any human rights laws?" I never felt that any of this had anything to do with the S.H.I.E.L.D. that you lead. β
To Tony's sarcasm, Nick Fury grinned. But that's not all, Tony seemed very unhappy with the news brought by Nick Fury, and continued: "Meng Ao and I handed over Lady Viper to you in the first place, because we believe you are professional in coercing confessions!" We thought you'd soon be able to get that crazy woman to speak, and tell us what we wanted to know. β
"But after all these days, you have achieved nothing, not to mention, and you still let that crazy woman die? You've made me doubt your abilities. Mr. Director. In the end, Tony jokingly stabbed again: "If I had known this, I might as well leave her to Meng Ao and me to deal with." I've read a few books on torture, and maybe they're all more effective than yours. β
"How could she die?"
Meng Ao didn't have Tony's somewhat off-line sarcasm. At this time, Tony was clearly communicating a personal vendetta. He knew the point of the problem as well as Meng Ao, but he just didn't ask, but mocked and teased Nick Fury with a sentence to repay the resentment he felt against him.
To put it simply, it's easy to see someone who makes you uncomfortable unlucky, and Tony thinks it's a good feeling. So he'd love to keep that going for a while.
"Read a few torture books" or something, this is already bluntly mocking Nick Fury's nobody, or some are a bunch of rice buckets, or his subordinates are not rice buckets. But Nick Fury is a rice bucket. Anyway, no matter how you explain it, this sentence can't be said to be a compliment.
But Meng Ao doesn't have much of the heart to taunt Nick Fury with Tony Stark right now. He wanted to know what was going on here, so his question went straight to the core.
"I want to know too." Nick Fury said: There was a rare expression of helplessness on his face.
"How did you die?" Meng Ao asked.
"Suicide." Nick Fury replied.
"Can you believe it?" Meng Ao and Tony rolled their eyes together, "S.H.I.E.L.D. is your territory, and you are the nominal leader of S.H.I.E.L.D. Even if there are your dissidents and opponents in it, this shouldn't happen to S.H.I.E.L.D., which you are in charge of, right? How long have you been at the helm of this violent group? Would you let someone important enough to open a breach of the enemy commit suicide? β
"But she did kill herself." Nick Fury spread his hands: "Cleanly, except that I can't think of a motive and possibility for her suicide, every piece of evidence points to her death as a suicide." β
"I'm starting to doubt your grip on S.H.I.E.L.D." Meng Ao said.
"Don't talk about you, I'm starting to doubt myself now." Nick Fury was clearly taking some of the blow, his one-eyed glare at Meng Ao and Tony, "I'm even having a kind of panic right now, you know?" I now feel that S.H.I.E.L.D., which I once thought I was familiar with, I am not familiar with at all. β
"I used to think I was in control of it, but when I told me, I just thought. S.H.I.E.L.D. is far more complicated than I thought. With so many people and so many departments, I don't even know who in it can be trusted and who shouldn't. β
"I've been woven into a web around me, and any movement I make will touch the network wire, so that someone on the Internet will know about it. I don't know how many people he stuffed under my hands. I feel like I'm going to be out of luck soon. β
Nick Fury said seriously.
"You seem to have a clue?" Meng Ao heard something vague about Nick Fury's words.
"It's not like Lady Viper doesn't say anything, she's smart and cunning." Nick Fury replied meaningfully, "If she hadn't died, everything she said would have been meaningless, and I would have taken it as her crazy words." But she died, and the words she had said to me privately had enough for me to guess and search. β
"Why are you telling us these things?" Meng Ao suddenly felt that Nick Fury, who had to answer all questions, was very impure in winter.
"You are people I can trust. You've been assassinated by that organization, and you're not going to be lucky, you'd have died when you were in Japan. So I'm willing to trust you and give me a few strong allies to trust for my future. β
Nick Fury went on to say, "It's a wake-up call for you, too. Don't be too surprised if you hear my bad news one day, it's not worth making a fuss. There are so many people who want me to die, not necessarily by some organization. β
"My search can get a little out of hand, so it's hard to say how they're going to react, but if you want to prepare something, do it. Here's my reminder. β
Finally, Nick Fury, who stood up, dropped a sentence and turned to leave with Natasha Romanoff.
"Damn, he's being pulled into the pit again." Meng Ao cursed out loud.
"Does the group behind it think Nick Fury said something to us?" Tony also realized that something was wrong for a while, and said helplessly: "His method of digging the pit is really silent, just to meet." (To be continued)
