Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 55 Secret Invasion
In an instant, Su Ze's world fell into silence.

All the sounds disappeared and Su Ze's brain seemed to be in a state of paralysis.

He stared straight at Ms. Kalina, who was sitting opposite him, as if he was looking at a wandering ghost.

At this moment, all of Su Ze's previous emotions faded away, and all those nervous and panicked thoughts disappeared completely. He only felt a chill crawling up his back, making his hair stand on end.

Unlike the deserted corridor outside, Ms. Kalina's office has good lighting. The gentle sunlight shines in from the huge windows, dyeing the interior of the room a warm color.

However, even in such a bright environment, the gloom between Su Ze's brows could not be dispelled. From his perspective, it seemed as if the sunlight was dimmed by Ms. Kalina's smile.

"What's wrong, showing such an expression?"

Kalina noticed Suze's extremely unnatural expression, and couldn't help but put down the pen in her hand and asked casually.

Su Ze did not forget the reason why he came here. Before he followed the Avengers to leave the earth to hunt Thanos, he had a conversation with Ms. Kalina.

Su Ze still remembers the look in Kalina's eyes at that time, and he may never forget that look in his life.

And now, although Ms. Kalina in front of him was exactly the same as in his memory, it was as if a part of her memory had been wiped out out of thin air, and she had forgotten the previous confrontation with him.

This is not Ms. 'Kalina' from before!
Su Ze came to a conclusion instantly, but his expression remained unchanged. "The mission has failed, Minister."

After a pause, Su Ze cleared his dry throat and continued

"I followed the Avengers to kill Thanos. The operation went smoothly and there were no casualties, but the gems have been destroyed. Those who disappeared will most likely never come back."

Hearing this, Ms. Kalina was visibly stunned for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully.

Su Ze narrowed his eyes slightly. He had been observing the reaction of Ms. Kalina in front of him. At this moment, he could not judge whether the other party was the real Ms. Kalina.

If the Ms. Kalina in front of him is real, then who is the Kalina who knew that he was not Agent Kaeya before?

And if the Ms. Kalina in front of me is fake, then who is she?

"This is not your fault, Kaia. You have tried your best. After all, if even the Avengers can't undo this, I can't think of anyone else who can reverse it." Lady Kalina sighed slightly and comforted him.

"So are we just giving up like that?" Su Ze asked again.

Hearing Su Ze's words, Ms. Kalina did not show any special expression. She just shook her head slightly and spoke calmly.

"No one wants to give up, but you just said that the Infinity Stones have been destroyed. We now have no way to restore the world to its previous state. However, you succeeded in killing Thanos, so this can be considered an end."

"ok, I get it."

Staring at Ms. Kalina opposite him, Suze was sure that there was definitely something wrong with the woman in front of him. At the same time, a special race that made him both familiar and unfamiliar appeared in Suze's mind - the Skrulls.

Familiarity is because Suze has a brief understanding of this special race in the Marvel Universe. They are a group of aliens who have a feud with the Kree. Everyone has the ability to change their appearance, just like Mystique. But unfamiliarity is because Suze does not know the history and story of this race. He only knows that the Kree in the comics once launched a war called "Secret Invasion" and caused great damage to the heroes.

At the same time, in Suze's own memory, his thoughts were still stuck in the Captain Marvel movie, where Nick Fury and Carol Danvers rescued the Skrull refugees and the two sides were in a cooperative relationship.

Su Ze didn't know what had happened in the meantime. Why did the Skrulls, who were supposed to cooperate with SHIELD, actually invade SHIELD and use their transformation ability to replace the original Minister Kalina?

The most critical question is, among the entire Avengers base today, how many people are replaced Skrulls?
"I know you are in a bad mood now. Logically, I should let you rest for a while, but you also know that there are not many action team members in the bureau now." Ms. Kalina paused and said meaningfully.

Su Ze's eyes moved, he knew the highlight was coming
"Is there a new mission?"

"It's still the problem in New York. I mentioned it to you before. I thought we could solve it with our own methods, but I didn't expect that the gangs there are so intertwined and there are even unregistered people with super powers causing trouble."

Ms. Kalina raised her hand and opened the drawer, then naturally took out a folder from it, gently placed it on the desk, and continued.

"I hope you can find out what happened there as soon as possible and determine the specific identities of those people with super powers. According to the Sokovia Accords, these unregistered super powers should be on our arrest list."

Su Ze glanced at Ms. Kalina, casually placed the crucible next to his feet, then walked forward and picked up the folder. He opened it and saw a blurry photo sandwiched between several pages of action reports.

In the photo, a man in a red masked uniform is punching another man. Judging from the clothes of the man being beaten, he is most likely a member of a gang.

Although the photo of the man in the red uniform was very blurry and his general appearance could not be seen clearly, Su Ze was still able to accurately infer his true identity - Daredevil Matt Murdock.

Daredevil, also known as Daredevil, is one of the guardians of Hell's Kitchen and an ordinary man who was transformed into a superhero by accident.

Matt's full name is Matthew Michael Murdoch. He was raised alone by his boxer father. Due to a car accident, Matt's eyes were contaminated by radioactive materials spilled from the truck and he became blind, but because of this, his other senses became extraordinary.

Later, under the guidance of Gunsou, a martial arts master who was also blind, Matt gradually became a powerful warrior.

During the day, he is a lawyer who speaks for civilians in Hell's Kitchen. At night, he transforms into Daredevil and fights against evil organizations throughout the city to fight crime.

Therefore, in addition to the Avengers, there are other superheroes out there who are not affected by the Flash Crisis.
Thinking of this, Su Ze let out a breath.

After briefly reading the action report, Su Ze looked up at Ms. Kalina.

"What do you want me to do, arrest this vigilante from Hell's Kitchen?"

"It's not just him, Kaia."

Ms. Kalina stood up silently, looked straight at Su Ze opposite her, and smiled.

"There are clues that a group of forces in Hell's Kitchen are secretly starting a war. The leader is this masked man. I need you to find out the background of these people and then catch them all in one fell swoop."
