0141: Conspiracy

Time pulls back to the node before the Clarion Daily report, at that time, mutants were just a dying race in the eyes of the world, and not many people in the new generation knew about the existence of mutants, and it seemed that after a while, the concept of mutants would disappear in the long river of time with the passage of time.

At that time, few people cared about mutants, and they didn't think they were dangerous, time would smooth everything out, many people had long forgotten what happened more than ten years ago, and more than ten years ago, mutants rarely appeared in the public eye, even the X-Men rarely reported it, and the people who knew them were basically mutants.

This also leads to the fact that people know about the Avengers, but they don't know that many years ago, there was a superhero organization similar to the Avengers.

It wasn't until the daily Clarion report that some people remembered the existence of mutants.

In the report, the cruelty of the laboratory, and the lines of logs and data that make people feel cold again, make people remember mutants again, and at the same time, they are deeply aware that they have been in a scam for many years, mutants have not died out, and there are still many people living in this land, and even some people live in hell all the time, devastated by experiments. The greed and moral decay of those who hate mutants but also crave their power are vividly reflected in the journal reports of these labs.

Therefore, what happened next, just like the effect of the first step of Tony's customized X Redemption Plan, the mutants' plight was sympathized, and some began to denounce it, hoping for an explanation.

After that, Tony followed the second step of the plan, and after the official calmed down a little anger, he released a report about the X-Men and Xavier Genius Academy, in order to tell everyone that the two races can coexist peacefully, and some mutants are also carrying the weight of the world, and the effect of the second step has also achieved expectations.

There are quite a few people who are beginning to accept the existence of mutants.

However, just as Tony was about to implement the third step and let the plan come to a perfect end, the breaking news of this morning instantly knocked everything back to its original shape.

This time, the content of the report is all about the black history of mutants, and some members of the X-Men, as well as Xavier Genius Academy, Charles Xavier, and even Magneto Eric's past work has also been revealed.

The wind comments that originally tended to mutants are like a fire in water, which is almost extinguished for a while, leaving no hope for a spark.

"These are the things I used to do under Stryker."

In the Avengers base, in the conference hall, Logan Howlett looked solemn and flipped through the content of the report, in fact, there were very few reports at first, but after the first one was issued, the other media seemed to have a dog's nose, and they all rushed to search for negative news about mutants.

Among them, the report mentioned in detail Wolverine's experience, he was a mercenary who broke the law, and his mercenary team innocently killed people, and in one operation, a village was slaughtered.

This history is about a few decades ago, around the seventies and eighties.

"They can find out this kind of thing, and besides, I haven't killed anyone by mistake."

Rogan gritted his teeth, angry at the upside-down of the report.

At this time, in the conference room, he felt the eyes of others looking at him, and he explained: "I was involved in the mercenary operation, but then, because of their brutal massacre, I chose to quit. ”

"However, as long as you participate, those netizens will not care if you do it or not"

Rojo sighed helplessly.

This is the case, even if it is explained clearly, Logan did not participate in the massacre, but he did participate in the mercenary operation, which is enough to convict netizens, and there is no way to reverse the current situation.

"I didn't expect things to turn out like this, and besides, I specifically told Nick Fury to keep them under control and not let those media come in and stir things up, but I didn't expect to miss a single one. The Clarion Daily is now trying to break the net. ”

Tony Stark has a headache, this report is still released on a good night's day, or in the middle of the night, when he is woken up by Jarvis, the number of reprints is too large to be deleted.

"No, Logan, I remember that most of the files like yours belong to the ranks, not to mention, the leader of this squad is still Stryker, he is a colonel."

War Machine Colonel Rhodes stared at the contents of the file and quickly spotted the problem.

The name William Stryker, Rhodes has heard of this guy even as an Air Force colonel, in the eyes of outsiders, Stryker was killed in action, but in fact Stryker is not a good person, the mercenary team he organized seems to be on a classified mission, but he will cause a large number of innocent casualties every time he is on a mission, and in the end he also died in one of his own anti-humanitarian laboratories.

Since Stryker is a high-ranking military officer, the official protection of his information in this area is extremely strict, and basically does not disclose it.

But now, in this report criticizing Wolverine, his surname is revealed.

"We seem to have overlooked the fact that this document is also likely to be released by Hydra."

Steve Rogers frowned, his eyes full of anger.

Whenever he talks about Hydra, he only has anger in his heart, once many years ago, he thought that winning the war would destroy Hydra, but in fact this is not the case, but it made Hydra even more rampant, and even became his top boss for a time, in the first two days of waking up, he kept giving orders to him, and some Hydra also fought side by side with him.

"Even if we ignore the issue, how can we explain Logan's smuggling activities a few months ago, and Professor Xavier's runaway incident."

The door was pushed open, and Nick Fury strode in, beads of sweat on his forehead and a gloomy face, "These are just two of them, and Magneto's brotherhood, how do you explain it?" ”

"Damn."

Logan Howlett cursed under his breath.

"Surveillance footage from Santa Fe."

Rojo looked at the drug smuggling report, which was a video from Santa Fe earlier, like which is not available to ordinary people.

He added: "The professor's runaway incident was an accident, and we all know about it."

The words are not finished yet.

Charles Xavier, who had been silent, opened his mouth to interrupt: "Don't explain it to me, even if it gets out of control, no one will understand." ”

"Fury, hasn't caught the first report yet?"

Tony Stark said: "I suspect that this report also has something to do with them, and it may be the same group of people who committed the crime." ”

"No, not even this time."

Nick Fury shook his head and said, "I immediately had everyone associated with Clarion Journal, but nothing came of it, and it was as if it appeared on Jameson's desk out of thin air, it was a paper file bag." ”

"It looks like some people are wasting taxpayers' money."

Tony Stark was so disappointed that he thought he would get some useful clues from the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, but he didn't expect anything.

To know.

In this situation, the best thing to do is to find the real publisher, and just arresting Jameson for interrogation has no effect, at most he will be charged with stealing secrets.

All they have to do is figure out the publisher's motivations, and only then can they solve the problem, otherwise every step they take will be calculated

Of course, if they can't solve the problem at hand now, then they won't be able to move a single step.

Nick Fury could tell it was yin and yang himself, and said, "Tony, some things are complicated."

"You'd better turn on the news, it's a complete mess out there now."

Agent Hill pushed the door open and opened the wall-mounted smart TV, and soon Jarvis switched to the news channel.

"At present, there are a large number of marchers on the streets of various cities, and they are full of signs with slogans against mutants and mutants are the source of all dangers"

"It's only been five hours since the story that revealed mutants was published in the early hours of this morning, but the situation is moving so quickly that the content of that report caused a huge panic"

In the news footage, there are people of men, women and children on the streets of various cities, holding signs and wandering, obviously there were people who supported the acceptance of mutants before, then there must be people who resist mutants.

It's just that the voice of acceptance before is louder than resistance.

But now, after such a thing, the voice of the boycott has obviously overshadowed the acceptance, and even some people have joined the ranks of the boycott from acceptance, and the number of people marching in the streets is very large, almost every major city has one.

"A bunch of guys who have nothing to do."

Nick Fury's face was completely blackened, you must know that the X Redemption Plan was formulated by Tony and submitted by him for review, that is, he is the general director, and now that something like this has happened, you don't have to think about it to know what the expression of the council will be.

Luo Huo looked at it for a while, his eyes showed surprise, and said, "Strange, don't you think everything is fermenting too quickly?" ”

Only a few hours after the report, a large crowd of marchers appeared in the streets, and their leaders seemed to be prepared.

"They look like they're prepared."

Tony also saw the problem and said, "If Hydra is behind all this, then it makes a lot more sense." ”

They have dealt two major blows to Hydra in two team months, and now it is likely that it will be from Hydra counterattack.

"Hydra, Hydra again, we can't wait here any longer."

Logan Howlett was indignant, smashed the table in anger, got up and walked out.

"What are you going to do?"

"Instead of sitting here waiting for information, let's go find those damn hydras yourself."

"I'll go too."

When Rojo heard this, he got up.

Now it's better to find the Hydra yourself, maybe you can find the answer from it, no one can escape the telepathic interrogation, the Hydra has a connection, as long as you find one of them, then you can dig deep into the other Hydra members hiding in New York City.

"Not allowed"

Nick Fury wanted to stop people, but they had already disappeared at the end of the corridor, "Damn, now Logan's picture is on the front page of the news, what's the difference between this and a wanted person shopping."

"Don't worry about them, I think you agents, hurry up and investigate, maybe there will be new clues."

Tony turned to leave.

Seeing this, Nick Fury hurriedly said: "Tony, they can go, but you can't, the Security Council is discussing a solution to this matter, don't act on your own." ”

At this moment, in the famous Times Square in Queens, New York, a group of 100 people are walking in the middle of the road holding placards, ignoring the traffic ahead, shouting slogans from time to time, resisting mutants and refusing to accept aliens.

Most of the pedestrians passing by around avoided it, some stopped to take pictures, and some people found it interesting or resonant, and chose to join in the fun.

"This bunch of guys. Can't they just go find a class to attend? ”

Logan Howlett wore a mask, covered tightly, hid his trademark beard, and looked at the marching crowd on the opposite side of the road, his eyes full of anger.

He was sure that there were definitely some people who came to join in the fun.

"For some, that's what they do."

Rojo focused his attention, telepathically scanning everyone above, reading their inner thoughts at this time, and becoming more certain of what he was saying.

There are indeed some people who come to join in the fun, or collect money, and of course, some of them are genuinely to resist mutants, in short, the ingredients are complicated.

"Found it"

Soon, Rojo found a member of the Hydra in the complex crowd, who was supposed to be one of the promoters of the march, who walked at the front, holding the largest placard.

"Is that him?"

Logan Howlett looked at the man and was about to rush up and grab him.

"Wait a minute, I'll just go."

Rojo hurriedly grabbed Logan, and then strode towards the crowd of marchers, no one recognized the young man who suddenly appeared, only saw him pass by and dragged the leader away.

However, they ignored all this and continued their march.

"What are you doing!"

The man yelled and was forcibly dragged into a dark alley.

"Shut up!"

Rojo kicked him in the stomach.

"Shhh Who are you? ”

The Hydra members gritted their teeth in pain.

"Tell me, who told you to do it?"

Rojo hadn't read any march-related instructions in the man's mind, but thinking of Eugene before, the guy's memory was most likely hidden.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I'm just fighting for my own rights, I'm not breaking any rules!"

The Hydra members gritted their teeth and shouted, "Someone, help me!" ”

"Be quiet."

Logan Howlett grabbed his head, his fingers tightened hard, he took off his mask, and asked, "Don't say anything, don't blame me for popping your head." ”

"You're a Wolverine?"

When the Hydra members saw this face, they instantly panicked.

He hurriedly begged for mercy: "I really don't know anything, I'm just living a normal life, I didn't perform any tasks, I volunteered to join the parade!" ”

"You think we're funny?"

Logan Howlett stepped up.

was stopped by Luo Huo next to him, "Maybe, the matter really has nothing to do with him." ”
