When Eddie woke up again, he found himself lying on his bed at home. Looking at the room that was just like any other, Eddie almost thought he was simply experiencing a nightmare. As if nothing happened in reality.
"I'm hungry!" But the next moment a voice reminded him that he was not dreaming.
"Venom?" Eddie asked tentatively.
"I'm hungry! I want to eat the pig brains you mentioned!" Venom didn't have as many thoughts as Eddie, he just wanted to eat. "Or are you planning to break the contract?"
"No! No!" It's not a dream.
Eddie hurried to the refrigerator. Of course, there were no pig brains, but other things were enough.
While making food, Eddie asked: "What happened to us? Why did I come back here?"
"I don't know." Venom said simply. "I just woke up too."
"Wait a minute? Are you going to be unconscious too?"
"Originally I wouldn't, but I just lost consciousness. Speaking of this kind of thing, shouldn't you, an Earthling, know better?"
Eddie was silent. Before today, he had always thought that Hannibal was just an ordinary murderer... Well, although it was a little weird to say that, compared with those superheroes who flew into the sky and escaped from the earth, Hannibal was indeed A piece of cake.
Unexpectedly.
Thinking about Eddie brings tears to his eyes, what a noble spirit. Not for personal reputation or profit, Professor Hannibal just silently protects mankind in the darkness.
Eddie beautified all the messy things Hannibal said before. In any case, it improved Hannibal's image infinitely.
"Why are we here...won't SHIELD and official people come to us?" Eddie secretly worried.
Just at this time.
There was a knock on his door.
Eddie was nervous. He was afraid that someone was coming to arrest him.
Venom also became serious: "The two people outside are...very strong."
"Are you here to find us?"
Eddie asked.
"How do I know?" Venom doesn't have the ability to read minds.
"Then let's run away!" Eddie was scared.
But soon a female voice came from outside: "Mr. Eddie, we are the New York Special Investigation Department. Please rest assured that we will not do anything to you before you commit a crime. This time we are only here to do something to you." Some necessary understanding.”
Eddie was still stunned.
"Why are you talking so much? Just say no." At this time, another female voice came: "Hannibal has reached an agreement with our minister. So you don't have to worry that we are here to arrest you."
Eddie felt relieved when he heard Hannibal.
But he still opened the door with great vigilance.
After opening the door, two very beautiful policewomen, one black and one white, stood at his door.
"you……"
"My name is Misty, codenamed Misty Knight, and she is Jessica, codenamed Treasure Girl. We are both members of the Special Investigation Department. Our director is Kevin." Misty took out her ID generously.
Eddie looked at their IDs suspiciously.
He had never heard of this department.
Not many people paid much attention to the New York police report to the outside world. The outside world is more interested in the cooperation between the New York police and Stark.
"Your department..."
"We are a department specifically for people with superpowers like you, but don't worry, we respect your personal rights and will not catch you for nothing. Of course, necessary supervision is still required. You should understand." Mi. Siti said this.
When Eddie heard about supervision, he instinctively felt uncomfortable. Americans take this seriously. Any words related to supervision are bad in the American consciousness. Liberalism is very popular in the United States, so many Americans like small government. However, since Roosevelt, the U.S. federal government has been rushing towards big government. This is because the federal government has a good grasp of public opinion, so it has a good control over public opinion. There isn't much discussion about this kind of thing.
However, thinking about the trouble he caused...he couldn't say anything.
After letting the two people enter the house, Eddie didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Don't be nervous, we didn't lie to you." Misty noticed Eddie's nervousness and comforted him.
But Jessica was unhappy with Eddie's attitude.
"Huh, you're so lucky."
At this time Eddie finally remembered that they just said that Hannibal and their minister had reached an agreement.
Eddie was naturally familiar with the name Kevin.
However, he didn't understand that Hannibal still had such connections?
"Hannibal... what... did he... do?" Eddie asked.
Misty was just about to speak, but Jessica pulled her back and said, "Our director owes Hannibal a favor."
This is not the case.
But this morning, Hannibal swaggered into the 15th Precinct and then had a fight in the director's office.
How exactly it was done, no one knows.
All I know is that the office was completely destroyed.
Then Kai agreed to Hannibal's request.
This made Jessica very dissatisfied. She was afraid of Kai though. But this fear is not out of fear, on the contrary, it is out of respect. Except for idiots, most people can clearly feel the kindness of others to them. Jessica is not a fool, she can feel Kai's kindness to her, and this kindness is not the kind of kindness that men feel out of hormones, but a kind of kindness that is like an adult looking at a child, without purpose.
So Jessica respects Kai very much. Most of the time, this respect is expressed in the form of fear.
Because of this, she was very unhappy with what Hannibal did!
Naturally, she didn't like Eddie as the culprit.
"Okay, let's do things quickly. We are very busy." Jessica would not have been willing to do such a thing if it hadn't been for Kai's order. So she didn't want to say any more nonsense. After saying that, she took out an empty jar. "Call your companion out, we will charge him some tissue!"
"What!!" Eddie jumped up, they were going to attack Venom.
It's not that Eddie pities Venom, but... he knows that Venom will never let him go, and will still implicate him when the time comes.
Sure enough, when Venom heard this, he immediately became unhappy!
Tentacles stretched out from Eddie's body and were about to strike at the two women.
Misty quickly said: "This is the condition Hannibal agreed to!"
Upon hearing Hannibal's name, Venom immediately stopped talking.
"Hannibal said that even if you lose most of your body tissue, you can still survive."
That's true, but the venom is still reluctant. After all, it can survive, but it will be uncomfortable and it will make it weak.
But Hannibal's words...
Venom thought about the despair he felt when facing Hannibal yesterday, and quickly made the most correct choice.
Symbiotes are like this. When faced with people who are stronger than themselves, they will adapt very quickly.
There is no shame in bowing to the strong.
…
"You said...Hannibal defeated Kai?" Nick Fury's ten-year-older face appeared in front of Natasha.
Nick Fury is indeed very old, but that's sad. Because on the night of the disaster, Kai directly arrested all S.H.I.E.L.D. field personnel. If the mayor and governor had not come forward in the end, Kai would have been ready to lead his people to attack the New York branch of S.H.I.E.L.D.
But even so, SHIELD is still having a hard time. First, all field agents including Mockingbird Barbara and Hawkeye were arrested, and two of them were directly shot to death by the New York police for resisting.
S.H.I.E.L.D. also held the New York police accountable for this, but this time the New York police did not bother S.H.I.E.L.D. Responding to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s request to release the agents, a rather succinct statement was given: "Fuck Squid!"
Not ready to communicate at all.
S.H.I.E.L.D. could only take the upper-level route. They found the White House and hoped that the White House would speak, but the president directly avoided it, and the Secretary of State directly threw the disaster report in front of S.H.I.E.L.D.
There were more than a thousand casualties. Although the fire was quickly extinguished, the property damage caused exceeded 30 billion US dollars!
What does SHIELD plan to do with this debt?
How could SHIELD accept this account? Of course not.
As a result, the Secretary of State turned around and left. Now New Yorkers are going crazy. What can the cabinet do? Offending the largest city in the United States for SHIELD? Don’t want to be re-elected next term? Not even a political career in the future?
There's no way the federal government is going to be involved. The price is too high.
SHIELD had no choice but to go to the mayor of New York. You don’t even have to look for the governor. The American political system determines that the city council has great autonomy, and it will be very difficult for the governor to interfere in the internal affairs of New York City. What's more, whether the governor participates or not is another matter.
It's a pity that the New York City Mayor and City Council ignored S.H.I.E.L.D.'s request.
They need someone to stand up and take responsibility. S.H.I.E.L.D. was originally the culprit of the disaster, so it is best to use them to calm public opinion.
As for helping them?
Then ask SHIELD what they can do to solve the current situation.
Anyway, no one would be stupid enough to stand up and defend SHIELD.
Of course, SHIELD didn't think of setting Eddie up as the murderer. But before they could implement it, something went wrong again.
Natasha nodded solemnly.
After learning that Hawkeye had been captured, Natasha immediately found Kai. Of course, the reason is not to help Hawkeye, but to serve as Kai's spokesperson like last time.
But after Natasha learned about it... Kai almost killed Hawkeye. Moreover, the witness testimonies, video materials and other evidence at the scene are extremely unfriendly to SHIELD! In particular, the military was involved. Even the military is willing to testify to this.
Kai was going crazy anyway. He feels that SHIELD is the biggest security threat in New York, because SHIELD has not done a single good thing so far, but has done a lot of harm. Now Kai is ready to arrest Phil. If the higher-ups didn't want to break up with SHIELD, the wanted order would have been in effect by now. Even so, the New York police had already started to attack the SHIELD New York branch in an open and honest manner.
This resulted in the New York branch being exposed to the public. As you can imagine, the New York branch will have to move. Until now, Phil was afraid to even leave the branch. For fear of being arrested.
"What agreement did they reach?" Nick Fury asked concerned. Hannibal...this man has been, ah no, always the focus of S.H.I.E.L.D. They have always hoped to find him. As for what to do if they find him, SHIELD has several plans. But so far, the plan is still just a plan, because they can't even find Mao.
So far, Nick Fury is doubting whether SHIELD is the world's number one intelligence agency. What's the matter, among the few superheroes, except for Iron Man, Kai and The Flash, they couldn't find any of them.
The Flash is actually quite easy to find. This guy is currently working as a forensics expert in Los Angeles. SHIELD has assessed him as harmless and a target that can be won over, so they are not in a hurry to contact him yet. Not to mention Iron Man and Kai.
"Kay said that Hannibal has already opened his mouth to protect Eddie Brock. He will not let others disturb him.",
"Protect? Why should he protect? Who does he think he is?" Nick said irritably. This man should belong to their S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Natasha said coldly: "Because he is not a superhero."
Nick turned to look at Natasha.
"Kai said, although this guy won't attack ordinary people, it doesn't mean he has principles." Natasha said Kai's evaluation of Hannibal.
"You mean, it's not that Kai can't beat him, but... he's threatened."
"Kay himself admitted that he couldn't do anything about that guy. As for threats... they didn't count. They made a deal. Hannibal promised that what happened at the Continental Hotel would never happen again, at least not in New York."
"Continental Hotel?!" Nick's eyes widened. The case of the Continental Hotel was the case where everyone from hotel employees to hotel residents disappeared overnight at the Manhattan branch of the Continental Hotel a year ago. This case was handed over directly by Kai to SHIELD. SHIELD was happy at the time For a while, I thought this was a change in Kai's attitude towards SHIELD. As a result, there has been no breakthrough in the case until now...it has become an unsolved case.
"Fuck Fuck! Kai must know that Hannibal did this! He did it on purpose!" Looking back now... this is not a change in Kai's attitude towards SHIELD, it's completely Kai's fault!
I feel so angry when I think about it.
"What about our attitude? Continue to arrest Eddie Brock?" Natasha is not interested in caring about that now.
Nick Fury calmed down and carefully considered the implications.
"Kai didn't say what Batman's attitude was? Or didn't he tell more details about Hannibal?"
"Well... Kai seems to be very afraid of Hannibal. It can be heard from his words that Hannibal should be related to those dark creatures. It seems that he has been hunting those monsters. So neither Batman nor Kai are willing to interact with He had a falling out.”
Nick took a sharp breath. He understands what Batman and Kai are thinking. Anyway, apart from occasionally killing scum, Hannibal seems to have made quite a contribution to the world. After all, you can't go wrong hunting dark creatures. Otherwise, those groups of demon hunters would not still exist. As for killing scum... isn't that what the Punisher does? But have you seen what SHIELD and Batman have done to the Punisher?
"Let's hold off... New York can't stand the trouble anymore." Nick had no choice but to let Eddie go first. There's nothing they can do about it, they already have enough troubles, and if they add an unscrupulous Hannibal...
"Hawkeye...are you okay?" Nick Fury sighed sadly. Nothing else could be said. But Hawkeye and the other agents... SHIELD can't really care.
"I secretly met him, but it wasn't a good thing. I broke three ribs, suffered extensive contusions, and almost went to see God. I'm lying on the bed pretending to be a mummy, but it's nothing serious. I'll be fine after taking some rest."
"I know, I will rescue him as soon as possible... Do you have any other information over there?"
