Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 69 Breaking point!
"It's getting colder outside, why don't we go inside and talk." Upon noticing the actions of the peeping person, Su Ze's first reaction was to ensure the safety of the old lady in front of him as soon as possible.

Supporting the old woman, Su Ze observed her actions with the help of the reflection in the glass, and tried to persuade the old woman to go back into the house. After all, this was the street, and although there were not many people, there was still some people here.

Su Ze couldn't be sure that there was only one person paying attention to this place. Based on his understanding of those organizations, there might be more secret sentries around.

After hearing Su Ze's words, the old woman nodded belatedly. "Yes, it's not polite to let you stand at the door all the time. Come in quickly. I can make you a pot of tea."

Su Ze helped the old woman into the flower shop and closed the door. At the same time, he took the opportunity to take a look at the situation outside through the glass on the door.

The stranger across the street had already walked to the middle of the road. After seeing Su Ze and the old woman enter the flower shop, he also stopped, seemingly in a dilemma.

It seems that the guy doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, so this is a good opportunity.

Su Ze narrowed his eyes slightly, and at the same time he made a plan. As long as he could subdue this peeping person, he would definitely be able to gain a lot of useful information.

I'm not afraid of being targeted, I'm just afraid that those people won't dare to come out.

Before, Su Ze didn’t know who the enemy was, but now it’s different. After confirming that the Skrulls were secretly planning some conspiracy, Su Ze was eager to know what they wanted to do.

When dealing with this kind of race with extremely strong concealment ability, as Rocket Raccoon said, they must be killed all at once. Otherwise, even if they just survive, there will be endless troubles.

Just then, the old woman walked slowly to the counter, raised her hand and poured two cups of tea. The clear sound of water interrupted Su Ze's thoughts.

"I remember that in the days after the incident, many people came to buy flowers from me to commemorate their friends and family. Later, after those guys from the Disaster Control Bureau targeted this place, I couldn't open it anymore."

Holding two cups of tea, the old woman handed one to Su Ze with a kind face, and then continued speaking slowly.

"They destroyed my backyard garden and smashed several of my potted plants. I tried to call the police, but the police line was always busy. I guess there were too many people calling the police, or those guys just don't care about our small business at all."

Su Ze's attention had actually always been on the peeper outside, but before he could take any action, he felt a heaviness in his hand. Looking at the teacup that was slightly steaming, Su Ze turned and looked at the old woman.

"Try it. This is the scented tea I made myself." The old woman smiled.

"Thank you." After saying thank you, Su Ze didn't hesitate to raise the cup and took a sip.

The soft floral fragrance wafted into Su Ze's nose, and the soothing taste left him with an endless aftertaste. He had to say that this tea reminded him of some flower tea shops in his previous life. It would be even better if some milk and sugar could be added.

"How does it taste? I'm old, so my taste is bland. You can also add some sugar cubes to taste it, or honey is also fine." After saying that, the old woman turned back to the cabinet and searched. "I remember it's around here."

"Don't bother, it tastes great." Su Ze pulled down the curtain at the door, took another sip of the tea, and asked casually. "By the way, ma'am, have you heard about the explosion that happened here a while ago?"

"Explosion?" The old woman stiffened slightly when she heard the question. "I seem to have some recollection. It was very late that day and the whole building was shaking. I thought those guys from the Disaster Control Bureau finally couldn't help themselves and were going to use tough measures to drive me away."

Hearing this, Su Ze knew that he had asked the right question, and hurriedly continued to ask, "Can you tell me more about it? I haven't seen much about the details of the explosion in the news."

"I heard that the chemical plant exploded due to some operational errors, but the place has been abandoned for a long time. The boss ran away with the money a few years ago. I heard that he was threatened by a gang and owed a lot of workers a lot of money."

The old woman shook her head, and suddenly thought of something. "But when you mentioned this, I suddenly remembered that Matthew also disappeared on that day. I remember he mentioned the chemical plant before. He must be holding on to other cases."

Su Ze's eyes moved, but he didn't show it on the surface.

When Suze got this information from Happy Hogan before, he didn't take it too seriously, but now it's different. First, the Skrulls invaded S.H.I.E.L.D. and secretly replaced at least one of its top executives, and then he was ambushed when he tried to enter Hell's Kitchen.

Suze had been looking for a breaking point, one that would stimulate the Skrulls and make them speed up their plans recklessly.

You know, the Skrulls are a very patient race. According to the clues provided by Rocket, the Skrulls may even spend more than ten years lurking in secret in order to plan a shocking change. They will not take action until they are 100% sure.

And now, the fake Kalina has not even received all of Ms. Kalina's memories, but has hurriedly replaced Ms. Kalina's identity as minister. This is obviously not in line with the cautious character of the Skrulls.

Originally, Su Ze suspected that Thanos's snap had exacerbated the change in their plans, because the Earth had now completely lost its greatest guardian.

Only one in ten heroes of the Avengers survived, and those who survived were immersed in unprecedented grief. Even the most powerful Thor lost his will to fight and spent his days drinking.

Under this general environment, for the Skrulls, this will be their best opportunity to overthrow the Earth's regime and rule the planet.

But on second thought, this environment only gave the Skrulls a motivation to start a secret invasion, and did not explain why they would speed up their plans. Given their meticulous nature, they should have been more thoroughly prepared, so why did it give people a feeling of being forced into a rush?

And at this moment, Su Ze finally found the outbreak point!

That is the explosion in Hell's Kitchen, or rather, all the human beings on Earth who participated in the explosion.

Their existence has always been the most secretive on Earth. After experiencing Hydra and the Sokovia Accords, SHIELD fell apart, and fewer and fewer people knew of their existence.

Now with the disappearance of Nick Fury and Hill, these Skrulls can be said to have truly disappeared into the darkness, and no one on the entire earth knows of their existence anymore.

But the explosion and the body of the Skrull completely exposed their existence.

Memory is the most fatal to the Skrulls' plan.

Once one person says it, it will become the memory of millions of people.

Just like a big fire, it often starts from small flames.
A series of information and clues were connected together in Suze's mind. He now finally understood why the Skrulls would carry out such an action of dancing on the edge of a knife. It was because they were worried that the explosion would attract the attention of someone with ulterior motives.

If the Avengers were alarmed at this time, all their preparations over the past decade would be wasted, and the Earth, which should have been loose and chaotic, might even be united again.

Thinking of this, Su Ze clenched his fists slightly. He knew what he should do next, but at this moment, a slight feeling of dizziness suddenly emerged in his mind.

It was an indescribable dizziness, just like a bad cold. Su Ze only felt his head was dizzy and his body was a little weak.

Bang!

The next second, the sound of the cup falling to the ground and breaking echoed throughout the room.

Su Ze's body went limp and he almost fell to the ground.

He held on to the wall, shook his head and looked up, only to see the old woman not far away, who was smiling kindly and staring at him with her head tilted.

It's like watching prey fall into a trap.
