Chapter 190: Phantom Knight and Captain America
Captain Rogers' home is in a mid-range neighborhood in downtown Washington, D.C., where occupancy is not very high and most of them are office workers. Although Captain Rogers has not yet exposed his "resurrection" in front of the American public, he does not want to stay at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters all the time and live with the agents who idolize him every day. So, under the secret arrangement of S.H.I.E.L.D., Captain Rogers moved here, a relatively quiet community.
Today, Captain Rogers, who had just returned from S.H.I.E.L.D., didn't look very good. He had some trouble when he went out on a mission the other day, but it was resolved, but the black widow Natasha, who was on the mission with him, seemed to be hiding something from him, which made him feel that something was wrong. Moreover, when Rogers returned from his mission, he found that Director Nick Fury did not know who had attacked him, and his whereabouts were unknown at this time.
Thinking about the strangeness of his mission and Nick's disappearance, Captain Rogers slowly walked to the door of his apartment. Card~ Just as Rogers took out the key and was about to open the door, his neighbor who opened the door just happened to open the door and came out, and when he saw Captain Rogers, he smiled and said hello to him.
Captain Rogers smiled in response, and he opened the door and walked into the apartment. In fact, Rogers knew that the beautiful woman who lived opposite him was a secret agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and he just didn't bother to debunk it. Card~ The door to the apartment slowly closed behind Captain Rogers, and at the same time blocked the gaze of the beautiful woman outside the door.
The unlit apartment was a little dim, and the light coming in from the window only vaguely allowed Captain Rogers to see some of the furnishings in the living room. However, just two steps after Captain Rogers stepped into the living room, his footsteps suddenly stopped, his eyes in the darkness instantly became serious, and his body muscles slowly tightened, as if he had encountered some great enemy.
Da~
Just as Captain Rogers was slowly walking forward with a tense body when he encountered a great enemy, a soft sound suddenly came from a corner of the dim living room, and a warm light was lit at the same time. Then, a calm voice reached Captain Rogers' ears.
"Hello, Captain Steve Rogers. Don't be so nervous, I'm Phantom Knight. ”
......
Call!
Steve Rogers, who was nervously sensing his surroundings, had already looked over there when he heard the soft sound, and when the lights came on, he saw the scene in front of him. A guy in a long black trench coat with a half-covered face was sitting leisurely on his sofa, and when Captain Rogers looked over, the man also looked over, and his black eyes exuded an aura that made Rogers a little cautious.
"Phantom Knight?" Steve Rogers repeated his name with some confusion as the uninvited guest introduced himself, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Although Captain Rogers is already trying to adapt to modern life, he still doesn't know much about the street heroes like Phantom Knight, who are active on the streets of New York. After all, Captain Rogers usually takes on some special tasks in S.H.I.E.L.D., and doesn't have much time to focus on other things. If it weren't for the fact that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been investigating Phantom Knight and has a special record, Captain Rogers might not even be able to hear Phantom Knight's name.
"Is it a street hero in New York? I've seen your filing in S.H.I.E.L.D., and it's not a low level. So, New York's street hero, Mr. Phantom Knight, what is the matter with you coming to me today?" Steve Rogers remembered who the man in front of him was, and then asked seriously. Captain Rogers didn't ask how the street hero in front of him knew about his resurrection and living here, and according to internal information from S.H.I.E.L.D., the mysterious Phantom Knight seems to have a powerful intelligence system.
Hearing Captain Rogers' words, Lin Rui was not surprised at all, the Phantom Knight's information must be at a high level within S.H.I.E.L.D., but with Steve Rogers' identity, he can obviously see it. So, after sorting out the language a little, Lin Rui spoke again.
"I'm here for Chief Nick Fury, I heard he was attacked today, because I have some friendship with Chief Nick, so I won't see him in danger and I may be able to find him here with Captain Rodgers. ”
Although Lin Rui now has a hidden mission to protect Nick Fury for a week, he didn't know that Nick had been attacked by Hydra today, and he only learned the news when he asked Daredevil later. At this time, Daredevil was already a secret agent within S.H.I.E.L.D., and the attack on Director Nick couldn't be hidden.
Call!
When he heard Lin Rui say that he was here to find Nick Fury, Rogers' eyes were obviously sharper, and he obviously regarded Lin Rui as a suspect in the attack on Nick Fury. However, when he heard Lin Rui's later words, he dispelled this speculation.
Obviously, although Phantom Knight is also looking for Nick, it shouldn't be against him. At the same time, as far as Captain Rogers knows, although Phantom Knight has always refused Nick's invitation to join S.H.I.E.L.D., there is no grudge between them.
"Oh, and while I'm a little curious about how you found out that Director Nick was attacked and missing, I'm more concerned about why you're looking for him now. After his eyes flashed a few times, Rogers Steve asked Lin Rui. At this time, he had already sat down on the chair in front of Lin Rui, and he was no longer nervous at the beginning.
Seeing Rogers sitting down in front of him, the momentum that he had been exerting before was also retracted, and the corners of Lin Rui's mouth that were blocked by the mask turned up slightly. Hearing Rogers' words, Lin Rui put down his crossed legs and continued: "Although I don't know if Director Nick has mentioned it to Captain Rogers, however, I want to find Director Nick just to protect him." Because, this is related to whether the hydra can be completely eliminated. ”
In fact, after seeing Captain Rogers' surprise at the beginning and some questions later, Lin Rui already knew that Nick Fury should not have told Captain America about Hydra lurking in S.H.I.E.L.D. Although Lin Rui didn't know what Nick did for doing this, since Lin Rui had already found it, there was no need for him to continue to hide it for Nick.
Card!
Just as Lin Rui said the word hydra, Rogers' body, which had just relaxed slightly, tensed up again. The hand on the seat handle was instantly pinched, and the wooden seat handle made a crisp sound, and it was directly pinched and cracked by Steve.
"What did you say?!Hydra!?" Letting go of the seatknob, which had been broken several times, Captain Rogers tried to suppress his emotions and asked the Phantom Knight in front of him again.
"That's right, Hydra. In fact, although the Hydra has been almost defeated by your efforts, it is not so simple for them to call Hydra, and some of the remaining people have lurked and quietly infiltrated when they formed S.H.I.E.L.D. Now, the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. is probably under the control of Hydra. Now that it has been said, Lin Rui no longer has any reservations.
"And Director Nick has been aware of the lurking hydras in S.H.I.E.L.D. before, and he is also secretly investigating, trying to catch them. However, now it seems that he still had an accident, and there is a chance that ** is the hand of the hydra. Looking carefully at the face of Captain Rogers in front of him, Lin Rui calmly said the news.
Card!
Just after Lin Rui finished speaking, the remaining handle of the seat where Steve was sitting also broke open with a crisp sound. Obviously, Rogers was shocked by Lin Rui's news. Lin Rui was silent after speaking, he knew that Captain Rogers needed some time to digest the situation.
In this way, after Lin Rui and Rogers were silent for a few minutes, Rogers finally regained his previous calm. So, he continued: "Even if what you said is true, then how do you know that Nick will come to me, you know, I only know the news." ”
"Well...... this"
Boom!
Just as Lin Rui was about to explain a few words, a slight noise suddenly came from the bedroom at the back of Rogers' apartment. Although the voice was very slight, Lin Rui and Captain Rogers were not ordinary people. After hearing the movement, the two looked at each other and got up and walked towards the bedroom.
