Chapter 499

"Agent Hill, sit."

Ye Li invited Maria Hill to sit down.

Hill nodded, lightly lifting her hips, and sat down next to Natasha.

After helping Natasha smooth out her slightly furrowed brows, she couldn't help but ask, "What is this...?"

"Just personal feelings."

Ye Li pulled Natasha into his arms, playing with her jade-like body, and said, "Doesn't the United States advocate for the freedom of personal life?"

"Mmm..." The sleeping beauty let out a soft moan in her dreams~.

"Hehe... Chairman Ye is truly free-spirited..."

Hill's brows twitched as she watched; having not yet experienced such things, she found it hard to handle this atmosphere...

"Not used to this already?"

Ye Li chuckled, "If you were to go see my room, you would definitely be scared."

This Deputy Director looked decisive and swift in her actions.

But her composure felt inferior to that of his little sister.

Matilda at least had witnessed a great war...

Although she was currently sleeping on the sofa in the next room with her legs spread.

"Nick Fury has been brutally murdered."

In the S. H. I. E. L. D. council video conference room.

Alexander Pierce was still pretending to defend Nick Fury, "Any normal person would say he is a martyr, not a traitor!"

"But why is he a traitor? —"

An elderly council member with white hair and a receding hairline asked back in the video call, saying, "—Because he let mercenaries hijack his own ship!"

Another council member, who looked like he had some Mexican ancestry, also chimed in.

"Nick Fury used his friendship with you to force the council to delay the Insight Project. He knew this project would expose his illegal activities. To put it nicely, he deceived you; to put it bluntly..."

Pierce interrupted him, spreading his hands, "Do you want me to resign in disgrace? I can write my resignation letter right now."

"We can discuss that later."

A female council member said, "We have talked about it, Mr. Secretary. The council has decided to restart the Insight Project immediately!"

"Do you remember the major unsolved case during the Battle of New York, where {all council members who ordered the nuclear strike died from mysterious nuclear energy}?"

"I had suspected the protesting Nick Fury before, but I just didn't have the evidence!"

"Launching the Insight Project can prevent such tragedies from happening again!"

The council members talked over one another.

They clearly didn't realize that Pierce was just acting and doing the opposite to launch the Insight Project.

Because whenever these council members thought of the former council members who were casually killed by Ye Li, they felt a chill run down their spines.

They wanted to launch the Insight Project as soon as possible to ensure their own personal safety...

That major unsolved case didn't even identify who the murderer was.

Only some terrorists who needed to be dealt with were pushed out by the authorities as scapegoats to appease the public.

This left the current council members with no sense of security at all...

If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't bear to give up the power in their hands, they would rather not be council members.

"That's right! It's time to use the Insight Project to monitor and clean up dangerous elements like the Hulk and Black Spider... uh..."

A council member was on a roll when he suddenly paused.

Because he noticed that everyone else had gone quiet and was looking at him with strange expressions...

As if to say—

If you want to die, don't drag us down with you...

That big green guy who just smashes things is one thing.

Black Spider.

They couldn't afford to provoke him...

Nobody knew what had triggered that person—

A long time ago, he vanished from the public eye and almost never appeared to fight criminals anymore.

Instead, he secretly specialized in hunting down those powerful figures who dared to smear his name.

No one knew how he got his information.

Anyway, as soon as there was public opinion unfavorable to Black Spider, he seemed to be able to find the source immediately and nip it in the bud!

By now.

Black Spider didn't know how many high-level figures he had purged...

That shocking major case where many council members died from nuclear radiation was actually secretly suspected by some to be the work of Black Spider.

After all, only he.

Would dare to be so unscrupulous.

But.

No one dared to say this guess out loud...

It could be said.

In the eyes of the public, Black Spider was just a special superhero who was relatively maverick and unconventional.
