Chapter 145 0142: The truth

"What do you mean it has nothing to do with him?"

Logan Howlett was surprised, and quickly thought of something, and asked: "You think this matter has nothing to do with Hydra, it doesn't sound like they can be ruled out as suspects."

"I didn't say shoot them to eliminate their suspicions. I was just thinking about one thing."

Rojo frowned and fell into deep thought. Then he grabbed the Hydra members on the ground and said, "Take us to meet the other Hydras in this city."

"no problem."

The Hydra member immediately nodded and said, "I will take you to see him, and you will let me go. This matter has nothing to do with Hydra and me."

"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way."

Logan Howlett kicked him.

The three of them walked out of the alley together. There were still a lot of people gathered on the street outside. They were so dense that the road was blocked. Many drivers got out of their cars and cursed at the crowd blocking the road, but they were unmoved and walked forward without hesitation. , shouting slogans loudly.

The content of the slogan is nothing more than boycotting mutants, and believing that there are people in the officialdom who are colluding with mutants. This theory comes from a certain media, because many years ago, Magneto secretly launched an operation to try to control the top officials in order to achieve this goal. The means by which mutants take over the world.

But in the end, the operation was sabotaged by the X-Men, but the report almost wiped out the existence of the X-Men. No one cared about what they did. Now these people on the street shouting slogans only care about when the official announcement will be made. Be able to stand up and give an explanation.

As of now, no one who can represent the official has come out to express their position. Obviously, they are still discussing relevant response plans.

"These people are really crazy. Today is a working day and they are so free."

Logan Howlett was so angry that he gritted his teeth because someone painted Wolverine's head on the sign and wrote the slogan "Slayer" underneath, making his image look like a great villain.

But after seeing such a scene, he really wanted to rush forward and tear these people apart, so that these guys could see what it means to be a villain!

"Ignore these guys, they are just poor pawns."

The Hydra member muttered.

"Shut up, you have the nerve to say that, and hurry up and lead the way."

Rojo patted his head and pushed him forward.

Fortunately, this guy didn't seem to want to cause trouble. Maybe, as he said, the matter itself had nothing to do with Hydra. He just wanted to survive, so he obediently took the two of them to a hotel in the city center. Outside the building.

"You Hydra actually work in such a high-end place?"

Logan Howlett looked up at the office building in front of him and raised his brows. No wonder so many people joined Hydra.

Thinking carefully about an organization that can infiltrate SHIELD, it is very reasonable to work in such a place.

"Just five people."

The HYDRA member took them to a conference room and he called the other five people he was currently in contact with.

Hydra has a strict internal structure with progressive class divisions. This is to ensure the organization's secrecy. Therefore, after joining the organization, this guy never even met his real boss.

It's normal to say that after all, before he joined, he was just a white-collar worker who had just graduated from college. He was accidentally pulled into such an organization. He only needed to occasionally help deliver information or complete some simple shooting tasks, and he could earn a lot of money. Commission is undoubtedly a huge temptation for a young person who has just entered society.

"Better be honest."

Rojo didn't hold out much hope and didn't expect to find the answer from these people.

He only needs to make one thing clear.

The situation was as he expected. The five Hydra members who were called did not know where the information and materials from the Daily Bugle came from.

These five Hydra members are all one of the main personnel in this city. They are mainly responsible for helping Hydra deliver information and collect intelligence. However, their levels are obviously a bit low and they may not be able to participate in this incident. middle.

Therefore, now either this matter is only known to senior personnel within Hydra, or Hydra has not been involved in this matter.

Rojo prefers the former, because if it is the latter, there are not many organizations in the world that can achieve this level, and there are only a few that can even escape the official eyes.

You can count them on one hand.

"What now? Notify SHIELD?"

Logan Howlett was also a little discouraged. He looked out the window and downstairs. The previously wandering team had now arrived on the main road downstairs.

"Ah."

Rojo nodded and motioned for him to call Agent Hill.

However, at this time, Rojo's cell phone also rang. After answering, he said: "Lorna? What's the matter?"

There was a burst of tears on the other end of the phone and he said something, his face darkened, "Mr. Lansher has been detained?"

Hearing this, Logan Howlett looked over.

After hanging up the phone heavily, Rojo explained: "Magneto was detained after getting off the plane."

Just about ten minutes ago, it was originally planned that after receiving the mutant members from the Middle East, Eric Lensherr would return to New York and meet at the ranch. This had been agreed upon with SHIELD and signed. Agreement, but now something like this has happened. The official unilaterally announced that Eric and others will be temporarily detained until everything is resolved to prevent more chaos.

There is no need to worry about Eric going berserk. The old Magneto has long lost his fiery temper. He is now staying at the airport and has been put on an ability-suppressing collar.

Of course, part of the reason for being collared was that airport personnel believed that Eric was a dangerous person, especially since he had been a wanted person before and that warrant could be reactivated if necessary.

"Oops. Just now Nick Fury notified us to go back for a meeting. He said that the higher-ups have already decided on a solution."

Logan Howlett's expression was not very good either, as if he had realized something.

Rojo said in a deep voice: "We seem to have fallen into a trap."

"Now how to do?"

"Go back first and see what the solution Nick Fury said is."

Rojo pondered and said no more. A few minutes later, the SHIELD task force arrived and took away the Hydra members, and he and Logan returned to the Tri-Wing Building together.

In the office on the top floor of the Tri-Wing Building in Washington, in the conference room next to it, Nick Fury, several familiar agents, and an officer were already waiting here.

Charles Xavier was the only mutant among them. He sat at the far corner of the long table. After Rojo and Logan came back, they sat next to the professor.

"Since everyone is here, I won't talk nonsense."

Nick Fury glanced at the officer next to him, motioned for him to speak, and sat on a chair nearby. It was obvious that this officer was the protagonist of this meeting.

"Everyone, I am General Ross. Some of you should have heard of my name, and some of you may not remember it, but it doesn't matter. Next, you just need to understand what the solution I am talking about is."

General Ross has a mustache and is in his 70s or 80s. He smiles when he speaks, but he gives people an incomprehensible feeling. He said: "I think everyone has seen what happened today. The situation is very serious. We also held relevant internal meetings as soon as possible. This incident has a great impact on the people."

"General, just tell us the plan and stop talking nonsense."

Logan Howlett slammed the table directly, interrupting his speech.

General Ross's face froze, and he smiled awkwardly and said: "No problem, after discussions between the cabinet and the council, we decided to implement the new X redemption plan, which will bring everything back to normal while also allowing every mutant to have bright future."

He slowed down and said slowly: "The content of the plan is very simple. If you voluntarily give up your mutant abilities to eliminate people's fear of mutants, then the matter will be solved perfectly."

Nowadays, most people in the outside world are extremely panicked about mutants. The reason is that today's reports have written a lot about the criminal history of mutants, and also described in detail the powerful manifestations of mutants' abilities.

Human beings have always been the overlords on the earth and are almost fearless. A large part of the reason is that in the cognition of most people, they do not think that there are other creatures that are more powerful than humans, and humans are relatively equal.

However, the emergence of mutants has undoubtedly broken the traditional understanding. After all, mutants can be inherited. Maybe they are a minority now, but as time goes by, their size will become larger and larger.

This is what most people are worried about. The abilities of mutants are scary.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Charles Xavier stared at Rose with his deep eyes and asked slowly: "We have agreed before that we will not use mutant abilities in any form or on any occasion."

"Professor, you should have read my thoughts and ideas, so there is no need to ask."

General Ross smiled and then said: "You only need to take special medicine to eliminate the X gene in your body and return to normal people. Then all problems will be solved. Only normal people can be recognized."

"You are saying it again."

Logan Howlett gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

"Nick Fury, do you really think this plan is suitable?"

Rojo looked at Nick Fury who said nothing.

Eliminating the X gene is destined to give up mutant ability. This is undoubtedly a trample on their dignity. This is not recognition.

In addition, who can guarantee that after the X gene is eliminated, these mutants will be recognized and treated well after they return to normal. You know, at that time, they will be unarmed ordinary people.

"This is decided by the council and cabinet and I can't participate. Besides, this is obviously the best solution at the moment. We and you have no choice."

Nick Fury is right.

Now is different from before. In the past, the world thought that mutants were about to die out, so they didn't care about the existence of mutants. However, now, the number of mutants is actually rising steadily, and they are hiding in a corner of the city. This makes people feel panic.

The people protesting on the streets now are putting pressure on the officials, hoping that they can arrest mutants.

Therefore, Rojo and the others were in a dilemma.

The same goes for Nick Fury.

"I can give you some time to think, just one hour. This plan must be implemented as soon as possible. I will go next door to make a cup of coffee and come back later. I hope to hear the answer you want."

General Ross adjusted his watch and then went to the next room.

Several SHIELD agents also left one after another, leaving only Rojo, Nick Fury, and Agent Hill.

"Where are the Avengers?"

Logan Howlett asked, "What did they think?"

"This matter is not something they can decide. Besides, the real decision-making power is in your hands. If I were you, I would think about it carefully. After all, the new X redemption plan can also bring you what you want. It can also help many people get rid of the side effects of their abilities.”

Nick Fury said solemnly.

"But you don't have to be in such a hurry. One hour is not enough."

Rojo took a deep breath, feeling dissatisfied with this time.

These people are too impatient.

Bang. Click!

Suddenly, the door of the conference room was pushed open forcefully, and a red-gold figure forced his way in despite the obstruction of several soldiers.

General Ross followed closely behind him and asked displeasedly: "Tony Stark, what are you doing? There is a meeting here!"

"I'm just here to tell you some new news."

The steel armor opened, and Tony Stark walked out of it, straightened his collar, took a breath, and said, "I got some new information."

"Tony, I seem to have reminded you that you cannot act without orders."

Nick Fury said solemnly.

"I didn't act without authorization. Besides, I'm not a subordinate of any of you. I just asked the Stark Group to do these things."

Tony Stark smiled and said jokingly: "I suddenly discovered that the Stark Group's security team may have more potential to become agents than your people."

"This is illegal"

Nick Fury's face turned darker.

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to do that."

Tony Stark took out a file from his back, and also attached a CD with dates engraved on it, which were videotapes from the past few days.

He found a chair, sat down leisurely, and said, "When Steve and the others come over, let's watch this video together."

"What's in here?"

Ross was about to see his expression and remembered that this guy had looked like this with ease when he confronted the military in court before. In the end, this guy won the case by talking to other scholars.

Thinking of this, General Ross's expression suddenly became solemn.

"It allows us to see the truth of the matter. Don't be so nervous, sit down together and get ready to taste it."
