Paying attention to emotions is the advantage of superheroes, and it is also the disadvantage of superheroes.
Only when you have feelings can you feel hesitation, sadness, and pain... You can't become a superhero if you have a stone-hearted heart.
However, if you have feelings, you will have weaknesses, and if you have weaknesses, you will be easily targeted.
No matter what kind of struggle it is, it is important to strike first, even if it is a small essay.
People's thinking flaws determine that there will inevitably be preconceptions. Once a person forms a mindset, it becomes even more difficult to change other people's prejudices.
Tony was arrested, S.H.I.E.L.D. did it.
Crossbones personally led the team and gave Tony a package of anesthesia, electric shock, and freezing according to the same standards as Zhan Liu.
Tony actually had a chance to escape, but the person who came to trap him was Pepper Pepper.
Although Tony has been hiding his feelings for Pepper, he can't hide it from himself, but he can't hide it from Obadiah, who is always paying attention to him.
Is that what that sentence says?
The person who knows you best is never your friend, but your enemy.
He knew that Tony loved Pepper, and he also knew that Pepper loved Tony. He also knew that the two did not express their feelings to each other, which was what he could take advantage of.
With such an obvious tool at his disposal, how could Obadiah give up.
The first person he incited to rebel was Pepper.
He forwarded intelligence provided by "concerned citizens" to Pepper.
This information includes a large number of audios, videos, physical examination results, comparison reports, etc., including Tony's doubts about his memory loss and physical abnormalities.
As for the source of the information, it is Jarvis's database.
Tony didn't dare to reveal these things, but he couldn't resolve the pain in his heart, so he had to confide in Jarvis.
Normally, Jarvis is artificial intelligence, and its database is difficult to break. Even if there is an attack, Jarvis can give a timely warning and delete top-secret content in advance.
But the problem is that the existence of "enthusiastic citizens" is inherently a bug.
It’s impossible to guard against it!
If it was just this information, Pepper might even confront Tony, which Obadiah would not allow.
So he shared with her the information that SHIELD had captured many replicators, and also told her that the real Tony might have been kidnapped and was in danger and in urgent need of rescue.
If the news leaks out and the impostor escapes, and the clues to the real Tony are lost, it is very likely that Tony will never be saved.
Concern leads to chaos.
Pepper is usually such a shrewd person, but when she met Tony, she immediately became 100% smarter, and she was no different from a young girl in love.
In addition, Pepper also knew that he had met an impostor Tony in front of the Stark Industries Building.
Several kinds of information were gathered together, and she couldn't help but not believe it.
Of course, more importantly, Pepper knew how much Tony respected Obadiah and how much Obadiah cared and loved Tony, so she did not doubt Obadiah's words at all.
So, just when Tony was hoping to get encouragement and comfort from Pepper, he was stabbed in the back by Pepper.
The anesthesia needle behind his back couldn't penetrate his skin at all, but the anesthesia gun held in Pepper's nervous and trembling hands made him feel heartbroken.
In one day, being betrayed by two of his most important people, Tony no longer had any desire to resist.
How can you hesitate on the battlefield?
But in a blink of an eye, the set meal arrived, turning Tony into an ice sculpture and being loaded into a car and taken away.
The only member of the Avengers was arrested!
The Avengers disbanded just one month after their formation.
By the time Nick Fury found out about this, the matter had already settled.
Originally he was very dissatisfied, but when he saw Tony's inhuman behavior in the arrest video, he immediately fell silent.
Infinite strength, steel and iron bones... Except for not being able to fly, Tony's abilities are very similar to those of Zhan Liu and the other three. If the four of them were not related in any way, even a dog wouldn't believe it.
Nick was very angry when he thought that his first member of the Avengers was actually an impostor and was almost infiltrated.
During the recent period, Agent Garrett's performance satisfied him very much. Not only did he find the secret base of Dr. Zola, the leader of Hydra, but he was also able to discover even a well-hidden undercover agent like Tony Stark. It was indeed worthy of his reputation. He is a senior agent.
He specifically chatted with Agent Garrett, wanting to know how Agent Garrett discovered the impostor who could even hide it from him.
Agent Garrett was well prepared for this and handed over all the information provided by Obadiah to Nick.
Nick didn't ask Agent Garrett how he obtained the data. For him, the results were the most important, and whether the process was illegal... Anyway, I don't know.
After waving Agent Garrett to leave, Nick began to study the contents carefully, and gradually became suspicious.
From these data, it can be clearly seen that Tony himself is not aware of his own problems and has been seeking the truth.
This scene is very similar to Natasha and the people who were arrested before.
They all insist that they are real people.
The difference between Tony and them is that Tony has lost part of his memory, focusing on mutants.
The Natalia who escaped before also had memory loss, so does the Natasha who stayed behind also have memory loss?
Do those fakes actually have memory loss?
What is the reason for this?
Is it a defective technology of memory instillation?
Or is this thing related to the disappearance of the mutant group?
Governments of various countries have been sending peace signals to mutants in the past few months, but what is disturbing is that the mutants have not responded at all.
The only mutants left in the world now are probably Zhan Liu and a few others. Moreover, it is still unclear whether Zhanliu and Natalia are mutants. Nick even believes that they are actually aliens and have nothing to do with mutants.
But if Tony and others have nothing to do with the Skrulls, but are related to mutants, then everything seems to be barely related.
It would be easier if it wasn't a Skrull invasion but some strange mutant ability.
There is nothing the people on earth can do about the transformation of the Skrulls, but for restraining the abilities of mutants, those biochemical laboratories may have a lot of unspeakable techniques for reference.
After reading the information, Nick thought of a way to try to distinguish those in the solitary room.
He grabbed the phone and called Agent Hill in.
"Agent Hill, do you have any latest information on the mutants?"
"Sorry, Director, there's still no movement. It's as if these people have left the earth."
"It would be a good thing if everyone just moved, but we still can't be careless." Nick sat back on his seat, half-opening and half-closing his one eye, secretly observing Agent Hill, "Do you still remember Professor X's ability evaluation? Result?"
"Of course, Professor Charles is one of the rare Omega mutants. He is very powerful. With a psychic amplifier, he can destroy human civilization instantly."
Nick briefly asked some questions about mutants and determined that Agent Hill's memory of mutants was very clear, and his way of thinking was formed by dealing with mutant problems for a long time, rather than a rigid memory of making up lessons after being replaced, so he He said with confidence:
"I need you to prepare a set of written test questions, which contain some general intelligence content, and then mix in some related questions about mutants, and then take this set of test papers to the 'twins' in the confinement room. Anyone who cannot answer mutant-related questions is a fake."
Only then did Agent Hill know the purpose of Nick's nonsense just now.
However, she had long been used to Nick's suspicion, so she didn't say anything immediately, just rolled her eyes and turned the page.
"What if they all have mutant-related memories?"
"That means I guessed wrong." Nick shrugged and said leisurely.
Sure enough, the boss opened his mouth and the subordinate ran away and broke his legs.
"Okay, I get it." Agent Hill immediately followed the order and turned around to leave, not wanting to continue looking at Nick's unscrupulous boss's face.
The idea is bold, but the result is very satisfying.
The agents, who had been imprisoned for several months, were finally separated.
Clint and others, who were acquitted, cheered and hugged each other, and then cursed at the group of "imposters" across the cell.
The "imposters" were almost desperate. They slapped the isolation door of the cell, screamed and howled.
"I am the real one!"
"I am the real one!!!"
However, no matter how they shouted, no one paid any attention to them. They could only watch a group of people laughing and disappearing out of sight.
The door to the cell was coldly closed again, completely isolating a group of people from hope.
Agent Hill brought Clint and others to see Nick. They were greeted by Nick's warm embrace and heartfelt apology.
The leaders have given such face, so what can the subordinates say? They can only burst into tears of gratitude, right?
Nick indeed sincerely welcomes their return, so that he can solve his current serious shortage of manpower.
After comforting these capable men, Nick generously gave them a few days off and asked them to go home and reunite with their relatives before looking at the frightened Scott Lang on the other side.
Scott's intelligence has been investigated from top to bottom, and Nick can't figure out what is different about such an ordinary hacker.
If copying senior agents such as Natasha and Clint can still be used, then why would an ordinary person like Scott need to copy them?
To put it bluntly, it may be an exaggeration to say that people like Scott are everywhere in the streets, but it must not be difficult to find a million similar ones in the United States.
But no matter how ordinary this person looks, as long as he is copied, there must be something special, but it is just not noticed by SHIELD.
SHIELD will never let such a suspicious person run around, so it is necessary to include him as 084 in SHIELD.
"Scott, are you interested in joining SHIELD?" Nick looked at him with a smile.
"Me? An agent?" Scott was very surprised.
"That's right." Nick nodded and said seductively: "As far as I know, you are serving your sentence in prison now. Even if you leave here, you will still go back to prison. But as long as you join SHIELD, you can Serve the sentence outside prison, wear a positioning anklet, go home when you want, and see your daughter when you want to."
"Okay, I do!" His daughter was Scott's darling. Hearing such a beautiful thing, Scott nodded in agreement without saying a word.
After asking someone to take Scott to go through the relevant procedures, Nick turned around and ordered:
"Agent Hill, send similar questions to all S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. Answer the questions on the spot and get the results on the spot. If anyone has questions, arrest them on the spot."
"Oh, by the way, include Coulson and his group of internal investigation team members in the examination. If there are no problems, let them go."
The next thing is simple, everyone gathers at each base, and then takes the electronic test on-site, and the results are issued on the spot.
Of course, everyone is fine.
After seeing this result, Nick's suspicion returned.
Not a single one fake?
He carefully checked all aspects of the question.
The title came from Agent Hill.
Electronic version, no printed test questions required.
Centralized electronic testing, no shipping required.
Remote camera monitoring, no cheating.
All are multiple-choice questions, and the results are determined by computers on site, and no one can change the results.
Everything is fine!
He thought about it carefully from beginning to end. If there was a problem, it could only be at the source.
The basis for this test to determine whether a person is an imposter lies in Nick Fury's own assumptions.
He hypothesized that these things were not an invasion by the Skrulls, but based on some unique ability of mutants, which allowed certain people to appear as replicas, but the replicas did not have the relevant memories of the mutants.
Only if this assumption is correct will his test be meaningful, otherwise it will be useless.
So the question is, does this really have nothing to do with the Skrulls?
The only way is to verify the group of fakes again.
The incomplete memory can only prove that this person is fake, but it cannot prove whether he is a Skrull.
There is only one most absolute, simplest and most effective way to prove whether a person is a Skrull.
That is, beat him to death!
As soon as a Skrull dies, the disguise disappears.
On the other hand, as long as the body does not change after death, it must not be a Skrull.
So, who should I kill?
Lieutenant Colonel Rhodes definitely can't do it. He's from the military. Even if you can tell the truth from the lie, but... what if you make a mistake?
In the same way, those agents from S.H.I.E.L.D. definitely can’t do it either.
Then, there is only one candidate who can be killed for experiments.
"Agent Hill, get that fake Scott Lang..."
When Nick finished speaking, he hesitated again. He felt that it would be too wasteful to kill him like this. After all, there were only a few experimental samples and there was too little material, so he temporarily changed his words:
"...Send it to the autopsy table and study it carefully to see how he is different from ordinary humans."
