[Iron Man] Did the president save the world today?

"Mr. Secretary of State? Oh, yes, this is Tony Stark."

After a while, he hung up the phone and said, "Honey, I'm afraid we have to go to the Avengers Building with His Excellency the Secretary of State."

"No problem," Amy was a little curious, "Why did Mr. Secretary of State contact you directly?"

"It's about the Avengers..."

After a while, the two met the Secretary of State in a neat suit.

"Hello, Mr. Stark, I have known you for a long time." The Secretary of State greeted Stark, and then looked at Amy, "This seems to be Miss Emilia Jarvis, the current CEO of Stark Industries. CEO."

"Hello, Mr. Secretary of State." Amy smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with this dignified politician.

"Is Miss Jarvis coming with us to Avengers Tower?" asked the Secretary of State.

Stark replied: "You said you wanted all the Avengers to be there, didn't you? Amy is also a member of the Avengers."

The Secretary of State looked at her several times with concern, and finally said: "Well, then let's go." After speaking, he got into the car ahead of the two.

"Well," Amy said to Stark, "It's really flattering me to count me as an Avenger, so what happened here? It actually alarmed the Secretary of State."

"The captain accidentally injured eleven Wakanda during their mission in Lagos," Stark said, "Claire was seriously injured."

Amy was surprised: "What?"

Stark looked not relaxed, said: "Let's go."

Taking advantage of the time in the car, Stark searched for information about the boy in the photo given by the woman, while Amy opened the news software to search for the Lagos incident. She had such a good time these days , I can't keep up with the world.

When they arrived at the Avengers Building, within a minute of the Secretary of State speaking, Amy understood that he really came to show them a little bit of power.

The Secretary of State stood before the Avengers, accusing them of disorganization and disciplining, and of using violence to tackle criminal influence.

This scene seemed familiar, especially when Claire sat next to her with a badly injured leg and said to her: "Emilia, guess what." She sighed in distress, "The other party shook out the news of the Winter Soldier, And then it explodes, and then Wanda takes control of the little HYDRA boss that's about to explode, and then one loses control and rushes into a building, and then... oh—you know what that means."

Of course she knew that this meant that the damned Scovia agreement was about to be taken out by Mr. Secretary of State.

"This was a very simple operation," Claire said in a muffled voice, leaning her head on her shoulder, "just like every mission we have done this year, the captain and Natasha took a few of our recruits for a half-drill Execute the task, but it just happened out of my expectation, if I could have noticed earlier—”

"Don't blame yourself," Amy said softly, "nobody can be sharp all the time."

"Okay," the captain interrupted the PPT showing their crimes, and said to the Secretary of State, "Enough."

Apparently the Secretary of State intended to have a good conversation, stopped the screening, and said to the Avengers present: "For the past four years, you have used unlimited power without discipline, and now the governments of the world cannot stand this. The situation is over. But it is not impossible."

"Oh, God..." Claire saw the thick white paper being taken out, turned her head away, and lowered her voice, "The Avengers will be killed by this bill!"

"The purpose of the Avengers was to protect the Earth," said the captain. "We have not violated this purpose, so the United Nations supervision team is for us—"

"Mr. Rogers, do you know where Saul and Banner are now?" asked the Secretary of State. Of course, the captain couldn't answer this question, and he went on to say, "Have you really protected the world? Don't you just do it at will?" Did two giant bombs be planted..."

"There will be a meeting in Vienna, which is an emergency plan," said the Secretary of State at last, "and I hope you will attend."

"What if we don't come?" Natasha asked.

The Secretary of State did not show any weakness in front of these superpowers, and his tone was quite tough: "Then you all retire."

Claire looked at Amy and said sadly: "It's time to choose sides, Emilia."

When the Secretary of State left, everyone walked towards Amy and the others, and then sat on the sofa. The atmosphere was dull, and the captain was flipping through the thick, dictionary-like bill.

"It seems that we have to sign this bill," Roddy said.

Falcon objected: "You can't just listen to the Secretary of State just because he appears."

"Not only the Secretary of State, Sam," Roddy said, "117 countries are involved. If we don't sign the bill, we are against the world. Besides, the Secretary of State is not just for nothing. He has a medal, just one more than you .”

"I have some data, maybe it can help," said the silent Vision on the side, "Since Mr. Stark publicly acknowledged the identity of Iron Man eight years ago, the number of superheroes has increased year by year, and at the same time, endangering the safety of the earth Incidents are also increasing year by year.”

The captain raised his head and asked, "You mean, what we caused?"

“No, I mean, maybe there’s something causal about it, like our ability to attract more challenges. Challenges breed conflict, and conflict breeds disaster,” he said.

Natasha looked at Stark who was sitting on the other side: "Tony, you are not usually so quiet."

"He's got an idea," said the captain.

"You know me, actually, I've got a bit of a migraine," Stark said. "But I checked out a young man on the way here."

He walked over to the sink with the cup and complained, "Who dumped the coffee grounds here, calling this a hotel?"

"Ahem," Claire coughed lightly, "I digress."

"Oh, I see, you did it, Claire." Stark looked at her legs again, and then projected a person's profile, "This is Charlie, a year ago, he was a graduate with good grades He intends to see the world before entering the society, he didn’t choose those luxurious and comfortable places, where do you think he went?” He put down his glass, “He went to Skovia.”

"He went to help poor people build houses, support education, distribute food and so on. Maybe he just wanted to do something good. But when we were fighting the bad guys, we threw a building on him." Stark said this When talking, I looked at Amy, "There is no next time in life, and there is no new life, whether it is a good person or a bad person, so we must be [-] prudent every time."

"It is true that we lack discipline, and maybe we will make decisions alone, and there will always be misjudgments," he said. "Why don't you trust the government once."

"However, if this bill is signed," the captain said, flipping through the agreement, "it means that we need to be controlled by the United Nations, and even the United Nations, they are human beings, and they all have their own desires. What if they don’t approve our dispatch when they need us?”

"But..." Natasha said, "Everything can be reversed, can't it? The problem now is that we did do some wrong things, and we need to win back the public's trust."

"Agreed." Claire silently added a word.

Stark seemed a little surprised: "So I can get the support of three women?"

The captain suddenly glanced at the phone, then raised his head, and said somewhat unnaturally: "I, I have something to deal with..."

Everyone watched him rush downstairs.

"Okay, this matter is finalized." Stark said, "Send someone to Vienna to sign it at that time, and Amy and I will handle the follow-up negotiations with the government."

"Wait a minute," Amy interrupted him, got up slowly, and said to Stark, "I oppose signing the bill."

What? ? ?

Everyone looked at her in surprise, she has always been on the same front as Stark, hasn't she?

Stark frowned and asked again: "What did you say?"

"I said," Amy repeated again, in a steady tone, without the slightest hint of a joke, "I object to signing the bill."

Claire tugged on her sleeve and asked in shock: "Emilia, why? Tell me."

"I agree with Captain," Amy said, "Politicians always like to take advantage of everything. When the Avengers become political, they will soon send people to transform us and turn us into their politics." means. At that time, whether we will protect the world, the United States or a certain regime, we don’t know, and we don’t know whether we will win trust or lose more.”

"When the captain was just injected with serum during World War II, he also believed in the government and his superiors," Amy said, "but he was dressed as a mascot, and they didn't trust him at all. The captain knew the face of the U.S. government. .”

Stark stared at her. Apart from looking at Stark at the beginning and saying the phrase "against signing the agreement", Amy didn't make eye contact with him at all. There must be other reasons why she opposed the agreement.

"Emilia, look at me," Stark said, Amy paused, but still looked at Stark honestly, Stark asked her, "You don't support signing the bill?"

"Yes." Amy replied calmly.

"The reason is what you just said?"

"……Correct."

Stark pursed her lips. She was lying.
