Injustice in Marvel

Chapter 293 Who Dies First

"Sir, I'm afraid I have some bad news to tell you."

On a certain floor of a building, on a pile of messy paper files that have been flipped through, Crossbones Rumlow is calling his new boss Garrett with some helplessness.

"According to our information, Steve Rogers should be here, but we tracked it down and found nothing. Sir, I think we should have lost the whereabouts of Steve Rogers."

Although he knew that saying this would make his big boss unhappy, but Rumlow had no other choice. With the matter at this point, he didn't think concealing the news or lying about it was a very good and effective method.

Fortunately, what makes Rumlow confident is that he is still useful now.At least until Captain America is found and captured, Rumlow is sure!I will not be in any danger.

On the contrary, after capturing the US team, it is the real crisis moment.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that they couldn't deal with Leon, so of course things like scapegoats would definitely be needed.

If the scapegoat has enough weight, all the better.

Sadly, no matter how Rumlow analyzed it, he found out in despair that he was the most suitable scapegoat.

This can't help but make people... Sad from it, it can't be cut off.

……

Although Garrett on the phone was ready to hear the bad news, when he really heard the bad news, he still couldn't help feeling panicked.

Captain America must not be alive, absolutely not!

No matter what high point of public opinion they occupy, the high ground of morality, or how much evidence they have, if they can't stop the US team from speaking, they will definitely fail.

Because the reputation of the US team is too strong.

Everyone respects him and trusts him.If the two sides Sophia have different arguments and have a dispute, there is almost no doubt that the US team will become the final winner.

Look at the current S.H.I.E.L.D., even though they concocted so much evidence, used so much manpower and material resources, the right time, place and people are in the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D., but the cauldron that killed Fury is still in the United States. The buckle on the head of the team is not very strict.

Garrett wants to directly brainwash the Winter Soldier again, and ask him to go to the TV station as a witness to identify the US team.

In a less polite tone, he ordered Rumlow to continue tracking the US team and be on standby at any time.After Garrett put down the phone, he found another capable man directly.

The maker of the detailed rules of the whole plan, the former general: Agent Sitwell.

"Sir, do you have any instructions?"

Standing in the high-level lobby of the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, Sitwell, who was in charge of directing a group of agents to capture the US team, was still calm when he spoke. His tone also infected Garrett, who was a little anxious in his heart. He couldn't help but slow down and recover. He asked with some confidence: "Give me some good news, Sitwell, Rumlow just lost track of Steve Rogers."

Looking around, the atmosphere in the command center seems to be a bit depressed, everyone is staring at him involuntarily, Sitwell wonders if there is anyone here who has mastered skills like lip language, after all, this is the lair of agents, Any kind of skill, any kind of expert can appear, and it's simply too normal to keep one hand.

After walking a few steps outside, and coming directly to the window, Sitwell took out another mobile phone in his arms and kept pressing it with his hands. At the same time, the call with Garrett was still going on.

"Sir, I do have some good news for you."

Garrett was shocked: "Speak!"

As if seeing something funny, Sitwell had a funny smile on his face, but he didn't laugh out loud, and his tone was still very steady and respectful: "Although I don't have anything about Steve news, but... I have news from another person: Natasha Romanoff, sir."

"Go tell Rumlow."

"Okay, sir."

………………

Rumlow was sitting on a chair with his feet up in a daze while he was playing with tearing paper in the building, expressionless, wondering what he was thinking.

Garrett asked him to stand by, and he really carried out the order perfectly, leading the assault team directly under him, standing still in this building.

"Agent Rumlow. Can you hear me?"

In his headset, he suddenly received a call cut in from the special line of the S.H.I.E.L.D. command center.

"Sitwell . . . sir."

Crossbones Rumlow's expression became more vivid. He squinted his eyes slightly, and called out the familiar name like he did every time he cooperated with each other in the past, but this time his address was a little interesting. Variety.

"Agent Rumlow, I'm afraid you called the wrong person, I'm not your officer."

Quickly extracting another meaning from Sitwell's words, Rumlow sneered: "Ah, yes, yes, yes, Minister John Garrett is my officer, sorry... gentlemen."

For himself, Sitwell may not be considered a teammate, but he has worked together for a long time and has done a lot of dirty work for Pierce together.

But Crossbones, who thinks he is definitely stronger than Sitwell, stronger and more valuable, never imagined that things would go to this point.

Not only did Sitwell and Leon become mentors and apprentices, but after Pierce's downfall and accidental death, the new Hydra boss came to power, and he was able to thrive like a fish in water, and was even more reused than before!
On the other hand, I am precarious, and may become an abandoned child at any time.

The officer and gentleman who made the two weird voices just now were also crossbones out of this kind of thinking, with a little bit of venting and real emotions of anger, jealousy, and unwillingness.

From Rumlow's point of view, no matter where things go, judging from the foreseeable results, Sitwell may face a much better result than himself.

Seemingly unwilling to get too involved with Rumlow on this issue, Sitwell avoided the topic indifferently, and said directly: "We have found traces of defected agent Natasha Romanov, Mr. Garrett It means to ask you to capture her back."

"Are you alive?" Rumlow also promptly terminated his "expression of true feelings" and asked professionally.

"Hehehe...that depends on your ability, Rumlow. I hope you won't die in this mission."

At the end of the call, Rumlow smiled and crossed his hips.

In past missions, Sitwell also made such a joke with him, but the current sentence seems to be no longer just a simple joke.

That was a break in a sense.

"Let's see who dies first!"

I don't know if Rumlow is talking about Natasha Romanoff, himself, or... Sitwell?
Smiling grinningly, he called his team members, and Crossbones rushed over to the address given by Sitwell.
