The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 2171 Suspected war

"Please continue watching!" Barbara Morse glanced at Elizabeth McCoy calmly, and then pressed the play button in her hand.

The next moment, the screen began to move smoothly again, and the victim seemed to be drinking and chatting happily with his companions. There were four of them, two men and two women, obviously planning to exercise after drinking. Enthusiastic, drink to your heart's content.

And all of a sudden, the victim stopped suddenly, didn't say a word, and his face became indifferent, and then he stood up directly under the surprised eyes of his companions, holding a drink that hadn't been drunk yet. After finishing the wine, he walked directly towards Vostagg and the others, and at this moment, he stepped out of the range of the lens that Will Stern put on the table.

After that, there was a scene of fierce conflict and quarrel between the two sides, which was no different from before. Everything was very coherent, and it also confirmed the authenticity of this video from the side. In fact, except for this video, Elizabeth McCoy did not watch it. I have never seen any other videos before the conflict, but there are videos about Vostagg and others. After all, they are Asgardians, and their tall stature alone makes them eye-catching no matter where they go.

However, there is no video about the victim’s conflict before the two parties. In fact, no one cares about these details at all. They just asked the victim’s companions whether they knew the Asgardians before. ?Are there conflicts between the two parties?By the way, I asked them what they were doing before, what they were doing, what else could they be doing besides drinking!

It's not that no one thought that someone might have tampered with it, but almost everyone thought that the victim and his companions were bribed by others, or directly sent by others, but after investigation, it was found that, These two speculations are all nonsense. No one has ever thought that the victim was actually controlled by others. It is precisely because of being controlled that these things that are not under his control happen.

No, it's not that no one thought of it, at least Thor guessed it, he guessed that Loki must have done something secretly, which caused all this to happen, and based on his understanding of Loki, Loki would not be here Anything went wrong in it, and in fact after the victim died, they really couldn't find any evidence to prove this, so everything they did was very passive.

"The two gentlemen in this video didn't intend to expose it, but when they edited other images in the camera, they accidentally discovered the hidden mystery in it, and finally handed it over to us." Barbara Morse raised her eyebrows and glanced at Elizabeth McCoy before saying expressionlessly: "As for why it was not handed over to the prosecution, I think Madam Secretary of State should be able to understand the position of those two gentlemen .”

Although Barbara Morse was expressionless when she spoke, the disdain and sarcasm in her words made Elizabeth unable to bear the color change.

How could she not understand that when Will Stern broadcast the accident live after drinking, even she, who was far away in Washington at that time, knew that Stern must have been calculated by someone, and Stern has never had any accidents in so many years. For similar things, he has always been known for his rigorous and objective attitude towards news work, so how could he get so drunk before the live broadcast? There is no doubt that he was calculated by someone, and he was calculated by someone close to him.

As for Ben Urick, he himself is the kind of person who can't rub the sand in his eyes. He has seen too much darkness over the years, and his wife is gone now, and the only thing that can be used to hold him back is gone. Alright, in that case, how could they possibly hand something over to a government they never trusted.

The Siwei Group is different. Whether it is the previous Ling Xiao or the current Thor, they are all members of the Avengers. In order to protect the world, they have paid a lot of blood and sacrifices. It is obvious that someone is calculating Asgard, trying to arouse the mutual confrontation between Asgard and the earth, and once things go to extremes, then Asgard is likely to go to war directly with the earth.

This kind of situation is something they don't want to see anyway, so they handed over this video to Siwei Group, so that they can fight back against their opponents in court. As long as the case is withdrawn, both parties At least temporarily, the conflict between them can be subsided.

Elizabeth didn't know whether to lament the two gentlemen's distrust of the government or their good intentions, so no matter what, with this video, no matter how the U.S. government manipulates them, it will be difficult for them to It is easy to sentence the two of Vostagg to death. At most, one of them will be sentenced to murder by mistake, and the sentence for murder by mistake is very short. Even putting them in prison is not as cost-effective as making a deal with them.

Suddenly, Elizabeth raised her head abruptly, looked at Barbara Morse, frowned and asked, "Why did you show me this video, why didn't you send it to the court? Think you're not trying to make a deal with me, or you wouldn't have uploaded it to Alpha Space Station?"

In fact, as long as she has this video in hand, Barbara Morse is invincible, and now Elizabeth can also think of why Barbara would decisively agree to a week later when she was in court. He went to trial again, and it turned out that he was holding a trump card in his hand.

Barbara Morse glanced at the expression on Elizabeth McCoy's face out of the corner of her eye, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although this video looks very shocking, the actual effect is far less than imagined. Great, this video at most proves that someone was doing something secretly, but no matter what, the person was beaten to death by Vostagg and others. A charge of accidental homicide can never be escaped, but what they want is to completely Excuse me!

So for Elizabeth McCoy's question, Barbara Morse folded her hands on her chest, sat back on the chair slightly, and said with a cold expression: "Since this matter involves mysterious power, Then naturally, the Avengers will be responsible, and with the magic bullet in the attack six days ago, Dr. Strange has decided to return to Earth to deal with this matter after the matter at hand is over."

Speaking of this, Barbara Morse sat up straight, staring at Elizabeth McCoy coldly and said: "The reason why I want to tell you this today is actually I hope you are prepared for what is likely to happen next, and don't talk about any more incidents, and put the blame on Asgard and our four-dimensional group."

"What's going to happen next?" Elizabeth immediately became vigilant. Being able to make a character like Barbara Morse use his trump card is definitely not an ordinary event, and it may lead to very serious consequences.

"The news is from Mr. Will Stern and Mr. Ben Ulrich." Barbara pointed to the TV on the wall, and then continued: "Three days ago, the two of them received a message from A call from the Ministry of National Defense, inviting them to rush to Andrew Air Force Base this evening, and then take a plane to Norway; as far as they know, there are more than three or two people who went to Norway this time, and almost all the large media in New York have sent people to go there Norway……"

"This is a big news event!" Elizabeth couldn't help but say it. This was the first thought in her mind, and she quickly continued: "No, it's impossible, there is absolutely no such thing in the United States. Mr. President has no plans to use force against Asgard, and Congress will not approve it."

Although the president of the United States has the right to sign a national emergency order when the national bureau encounters a serious crisis, and during the emergency, the president can issue some regulations for exercising special powers that are usually frozen, including declaring martial law, expanding the military, and confiscating property , as well as restricting communications, trade and financial transactions, and even terminating chemical and biological weapons control laws and other regulations. Most importantly, he can use the military to attack other countries to a certain extent.

In fact, as the leader of the three armed forces of the United States, the President of the United States usually has the right to use a small force to carry out some secret missions, but once he declares a state of emergency, his power will expand exponentially.

Although the President of the United States has such powers, after the state of emergency ends, every order he issues during this period will be subject to strict scrutiny by Congress, especially the act of launching a war, which is likely to lead to the impeachment of the President of the United States. .

And this is secondary, the most important thing is that even if the President of the United States uses the military to attack other countries, he may not be able to guarantee 100% success, especially when attacking a region with top strength like Asgard, it will not be possible. Well, the army of the whole country will be planted there.

So Elizabeth knows very well that the president will not act rashly without adequate preparation, and his staff will not allow him to act rashly and start a war at will, let alone Congress.
