Chapter 418: Marvel: Starting by Awakening the Small Universe, Chapter 219

If it were Gwen saying she was injured and went to the hospital, George would definitely have exploded as well.

It's just that...

Hawk looked at Gwen with some hesitation at the time: "Do we really have to wear a sling for a month? Can't I just pretend to hang it? If that doesn't work, can't I just avoid meeting George for this month?"

Who was he?

Hawk Phoenix.

A demon king certified by both SHIELD and Hydra, who had single-handedly destroyed Hydra's second attempt at ambition, even scaring Strucker into running away without looking back and hiding.

And yet, the second after he thwarted Hydra's conspiracy, he was wearing a sling?

Was this appropriate?

Hawk was conflicted at the time, but the explanation Gwen gave once again made him willingly choose to obediently go to the New York SHIELD with her and disguise himself as having a fractured left arm.

Gwen only said two sentences.

The first sentence.

"Dad is an old sheriff. If he doesn't see it with his own eyes, he might just go to the hospital to inquire himself."

The second sentence.

"Think on the bright side: although you have to fake an illness for a month, you don't have to do any work during this month, and the same goes for in bed, too."

"Deal!"

Hawk didn't even hesitate. After Gwen finished these two sentences, his conflicted expression became extremely serious as he looked at his fiancée: "Let's plan this out."

It was indeed necessary to plan.

Because as Gwen said, George was an old sheriff; no one could guarantee that George wouldn't suddenly decide to go to the hospital to check Hawk's medical records.

However, there was no need to worry about this aspect.

The New York SHIELD would step in to handle it; not only did they fix the medical records inside the hospital, but the cast on Hawk's left arm was also handled by SHIELD agents.

It wasn't heavy, and it was breathable, completely lacking the stuffiness of 99% of the casts on the market.

Sure enough.

After Hawk appeared with his cast and sling, George softly told him to be careful, and after wishing Hawk a speedy recovery, he didn't say anything else.

But Hawk believed that if it were Gwen entering the house with a cast and sling...

The moment Gwen stepped through the door, George would have a Glock 19 pointed at his forehead.

Fortunately, they had managed to fool him.

And because Hawk was injured, after dinner, Helen didn't keep them this time; instead, she urged them to go back quickly. Before they left, she specifically instructed Gwen not to bully Hawk just because he was injured.

Hawk smiled.

Gwen was speechless.

When the two returned home, Hawk had already gone to bed early. Although he wasn't quite used to suddenly losing the use of his left arm, the moment he thought about the reward after losing it, he felt it didn't matter.

Gwen, walking out of the bathroom, looked at Hawk lying on the bed, smiling enthusiastically at her, and couldn't help but roll her eyes. But thinking of her promise, she still unbuttoned her pajamas and walked over.

The next day.

Hawk was refreshed, wearing a pair of shorts, lying on the living room sofa with a smile on his face.

Of course.

His left arm was still in a cast.

Gwen, who came down from upstairs rubbing her waist, looked at Hawk, who was lying on the sofa like a paralyzed person, and her mouth twitched: "I suddenly regret letting you get injured."

Hawk chuckled: "Then tell George the truth."

Still the same point.

Playing the pig to eat the tiger?

What kind of nonsense is that? Showing off in front of people and crushing them with levels is the way new transmigration novels are supposed to be opened.

That's what he thought, and that's how he had always done it.

But others didn't think so.

For example, SHIELD.

And for example, Gwen.

SHIELD didn't want him exposed to the public eye, even now that Lei Shen had appeared.

But Lei Shen was an alien after all; no matter how powerful he was, those who knew would at most feel envy and jealousy.

But Hawk was different.

He was a native Earthling; those who knew might feel envy or jealousy, but more would definitely feel hatred.

Resenting others for having what they don't.

Human nature is inherently evil; that's the mainstream.

SHIELD had no doubt that once Hawk was exposed to the public eye, the first reaction of the masses would definitely not be to worship him like Lei Shen, but to think about whether they could replace him, for instance, by capturing Hawk to learn the secret of why he was so strong.

Hawk didn't care about this.

In a word.

War, he loved war the most.

But SHIELD couldn't afford it; after all, no one could guarantee that some peerless genius wouldn't provoke Hawk into destroying the Earth.

Although the probability was very low, what if?

This was the reason why SHIELD took the initiative to help Hawk hide his identity.

As for Gwen.

Gwen looked at the indifferent Hawk, rolled her eyes again, and then said seriously: "Your secret can only be known by me."

Hawk knew this answer wasn't his fiancée's true thought.

However...

"Fine, you're the boss, I'll listen to you."

"Good boy."

Gwen smiled brightly, then sat down beside Hawk, glanced at the thigh Hawk had casually placed on her lap, then looked at Hawk and changed the subject: "Hawk, Hydra's second attempt, has such a big matter just subsided like this?"

Hawk laughed: "Big? Not big. If Sharon hadn't come to our house for help, you probably wouldn't have known what happened either."

Hydra's second attempt was within SHIELD.

SHIELD itself was a secret organization.

Plus, this time, because of his intervention, Natasha didn't completely publish SHIELD's information on the internet.

So...

The most sensational news yesterday was nothing more than the Insight Helicarrier crashing over Washington D. C., and the reappearance of Lei Shen and Iron Man Tony Stark.

But the official side had already given an explanation.

This was a temporary joint exercise held by the Pentagon in conjunction with Iron Man Tony Stark and Lei Shen, aimed at improving humanity's defensive capabilities when encountering dangers as they step into space in the future.

Although this explanation sounded a bit ridiculous.

But most of the public still believed it.

After all, 70% of the Federation's population followed the path of happy ignorance; there were even people who believed in injecting disinfectant, so in the face of this slightly more normal explanation from the Pentagon, what reason was there not to believe it?

Gwen blinked.

"So, Sharon and Commander Hand, they are okay too?"

"That I don't know."

Hawk shook his head, thought for a moment, and looked at Gwen: "They shouldn't be directly disbanded by the Five Greats."

With the Hydra incident, it was impossible for SHIELD to say it had no impact.

But...

No matter how the Security Council handled SHIELD, they definitely wouldn't be like in the original plot, directly downsizing SHIELD and letting it naturally die out.

The most important point.

Was still because of Hawk!
