Chapter 118: Summons From the Senate
To be fair, although Nick Fury is sometimes a little suspicious and even self-righteous, he is definitely a person without any selfish motives.
Seeing that his Avengers plan has basically become Qin Xiao's, although he feels frustrated, he also hopes that this team can become a sharp sickle as Qin Xiao said.
Now even Captain America has been dug out by him, Nick Fury really doesn't know what to say, so he simply sent Dr. Banner over.
Of course, sending Banner may be more because he thinks he will be safer in the sky.
And the happiest person about Banner's appearance is Tony. The two genius scientists always collide with some different sparks. For example, recently they are studying to invent a pair of pants that will not be torn no matter how they are deformed.
The conversation between Nick Fury and Qin Xiao is a bargain for Qin Xiao.
Because before the captain came in, he had been standing at the door and listening for a long time. The captain is not like Banner, basically he has no opinion of his own.
For this new era, although he superficially listened to Qin Xiao's advice and the sky base is slowly accepting new things, he actually has his own plans in his heart.
The conversation between Qin Xiao and Nick Fury completely dispelled the captain's doubts, and to a large extent, the captain agreed with what Qin Xiao said.
New York City, Brooklyn.
This was the first time the captain had stepped into the city after waking up.
Qin Xiao drove the Acura sports car that he had exchanged for his house and Tony, opened the convertible and walked slowly on the streets of Brooklyn.
"How is it? Captain, do you feel familiar?"
"I saw what Brooklyn looks like now on Google Maps before, and it feels very strange. I know my home is over there."
The captain pointed to another street.
"But my house is no longer there!"
"I still remember that alley. I fought with some gangsters in it many times. To be precise, I was beaten every time, and every time it was Bucky that guy who came to save me, Bucky..."
Qin Xiao turned his head to look at the captain, opened his mouth, but still held back and didn't speak.
"What's wrong?"
The captain was very keen to notice Qin Xiao's hesitation.
"Oh, nothing, just thinking of something. Where are we going next?"
"Let's go to the museum. They said there is a museum about me in New York, which still preserves many old photos and videos. I want to go and see it. At least I can see familiar faces there, even if it's in the video!"
Captain America stayed in the museum for a long time, especially when watching the videos left by the members of the Howling Commandos.
In those videos, there are former members of the Howling Commandos, Bucky, and Peggy Carter's exclusive memoirs.
In the captain's memory, these are just things that happened not long ago, but when he woke up, more than 60 years had passed, and the whole world could no longer find any shadow of his memory.
This is actually a particularly terrible thing, when you are completely unfamiliar with the whole world and have no sense of belonging.
People need to look forward. It's simple to say, but if you really put people in Captain America's situation, few people can face it so positively from the beginning.
"You are strong, Captain, stronger than I thought."
After leaving the museum, Qin Xiao said sincerely.
"I was in poor health when I was young, so I could only choose to make my heart stronger!"
"Okay! I'll finish this bowl of chicken soup!"
Qin Xiao said secretly in his heart.
I should learn to be stronger in the future, at least look more mature and stable.
Nodding, just about to get in the car.
Suddenly found a bright white on the windshield of the car.
"Oh, shit, which blind policeman gave me a ticket? I parked in a standard parking space!"
Qin Xiao cursed angrily, and walked forward to find that this was not a ticket, but a subpoena.
A subpoena from the Senate asked Qin Xiao, Tony, and Natasha to attend a hearing held by the Senate. The content was about the sky base outside New York City and the Red House organization.
Just like Nick Fury said, this is not only a threat to some people, but also a piece of fat meat. It seems that he is being remembered by others.
If this had happened in the past, it would have been a big trouble. At least Qin Xiao could not directly turn against the government and go to war.
But now...
Qin Xiao looked at Captain America beside him and smiled knowingly.
After Captain America disappeared, the government and the military praised Captain America to the sky.
Until now, Captain America is regarded as the representative of American spirit and patriotism.
Let's not consider the political significance behind these, but the government's deification movement is very successful. The whole world wants to think that it is because Captain America defeated Hydra that the war was won and peace was successfully ushered in.
Over the years, the various Captain America souvenirs, tickets and a series of peripherals in the museum alone have brought a lot of extra income to the government.
The deified Captain America definitely has many positive images in people's hearts. He is simply a saint of the new era.
Such a person is enough to guide the public opinion of the whole society.
Senate...
The last time Tony came to this place was because the government asked him to hand over the iron armor.
That time, Tony used his eloquent mouth and some videos of the government's secret experiments to slap the Senate in the face in front of reporters.
And this time, facing Qin Xiao, Tony and Natasha, the Senate was fully prepared in advance.
"Mr. Qin, I have a document here, which shows that you illegally broke into the border between Ukraine and Belarus not long ago, and destroyed a spy organization Red House without the consent of any local department."
A congressman first attacked Qin Xiao, and the first thing he said was the problem of illegal intrusion.
Just like Nick Fury said, without SHIELD, he really needs to face these big and small troubles by himself.
"Sorry, Mr. Congressman, illegal intrusion? I don't agree with you. Natasha Romanoff and I were kidnapped in our apartment in Manhattan, New York. I still have the video outside the apartment. You can clearly see that we were carried into the car while unconscious."
Qin Xiao really has this video, but the date was cleverly modified by Jarvis.
These words of argument were just a prelude. Both parties didn't care much about this matter. After Qin Xiao said that, the other party just passed the issue.
A video was played directly on the TV at the scene.
This was a surveillance video. In the video, Qin Xiao punched the prison wall and rescued Alexi.
