Chapter 136: Not signing the agreement is treason?
Chapter 136: Not signing the agreement is treason?
"Boss, should we send someone to pick you up?"
Hearing Alice's words, Lin En nodded and said, "No need, you guys go first, I'll be there soon!"
Such a serious case happened in New York. As the director of the New York FBI branch, Lynn must rush to the scene as soon as possible!
After hanging up the phone, Lynn looked around and then asked Friday, "Friday, let the rest of the Illuminati continue to deal with those superpowered criminals!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Do you need my help?"
Landing from the air, Ultron pointed to the Mind Stone on his head and said, "Maybe I can help rescue more people!"
"Alright!"
Looking at Ultron who volunteered, Lynn nodded.
When Lynn and Ultron arrived at the scene, a cordon had already been set up.
Heads of NYPD, Fire Department, Port Authority, Medical Department and other departments have all arrived at the scene.
Even the mayor, deputy mayor and others rushed over.
Looking at the tragic scene before him, Ultron used the Mind Stone to sense it and said to Lin En, "At least a thousand people died in this disaster. There are still many survivors under the collapsed tunnel. I will go and help!"
"it is good!"
Nodding, Lynn walked towards Alice and the others.
"Boss, you are here!"
Seeing Lin En approaching, Alice immediately ran over and said, "I just had someone check the scene and found no traces of the explosion. The people in the subway control center have also been taken under control by our people."
"After checking, we found that no one had forced their way into the control center, and there were no signs of network intrusion. Therefore, our preliminary inference is that this accident was not caused by a terrorist attack!"
"However, the control center's workstation shows an anomaly. Joey has already tried to access the network to collect clues!"
Hearing Alice say this, Lynn nodded and then walked towards Uncle George.
"We must excavate the collapsed tunnel as quickly as possible and rescue the injured. This accident has a very serious impact, so we must investigate it immediately!"
When Lynn walked over, Hydra Mayor Chris Bell was talking to Uncle George with a serious expression.
When he saw Lin En coming, Chris Bell nodded imperceptibly, and then said to Lin En in front of everyone, "Director Lin En, do you have any clues from the FBI?"
In response to the mayor's inquiry, Lin En said, "We've already had someone investigate. Preliminary investigations have ruled out a terrorist attack. The specific cause of the accident is still under investigation, but I think we'll have an answer soon!"
As he was speaking, a large group of reporters rushed over after hearing the news.
Looking at the crowd of reporters rushing in, Chris Bell shook hands with Lin En and said, "I'll go deal with these media first. Chief Lin En, I'll leave the scene to you!"
After saying that, Chris Bell walked towards the reporters outside the cordon.
Watching Chris Bell leave, George Stacy came to Lynn with a serious expression and whispered, "Was it a simple accident or a man-made disaster?"
Seeing Lynn nod, George Stacy cursed under his breath: "FUXX, these fucking lunatics."
"Uncle George, I suspect this has something to do with the group of superpowered criminals that suddenly appeared in New York. If nothing unexpected happens, they should be under the orders of the same mastermind!"
"So let's leave this matter to the FBI. You don't need to get involved!"
Hearing what Lin En said, George Stacy nodded and said, "Okay, from now on, the entire NYPD in New York will be under your command. You must arrest all these crazy guys!"
In the evening, inside the Illuminati base.
"Lynn, has the New York subway accident been investigated?"
In response to Steve's question, Lynn nodded. "According to the control room's surveillance footage, the cause of the disaster was an engineer in the control room pressing the track change button while the subway was running."
"After the FBI arrested the engineer and interrogated him, they found that he had no recollection of what he had done. It was as if he was under mental control."
"We checked his communication records and recent interactions and found nothing unusual."
"So the initial speculation is that his brain must have been hacked!"
Hearing Lin En say this, Tony Stark said, "Who is the mastermind behind this?"
"That should be about right. Everyone, get ready. After tonight, all sorts of harsh criticism will flood the Illuminati and the Avengers!"
After saying that, Lynn stood up and walked towards the lounge.
Sure enough, things happened just as Lin En had guessed. In just one night, the direction of public opinion shifted from why the disaster happened to questioning the Illuminati and the Avengers.
First, some people publicly questioned it online. Obviously, both the Illuminati and the Avengers superheroes are in New York, but why are there still so many super-powered criminals burning, killing and looting everywhere in New York?
Is it because of the emergence of these superheroes that super-powered criminals appear?
Otherwise, why aren't there super-powered criminals in other cities?
Then the wind direction began to change again, questioning whether superheroes were the source of the disaster.
By the end, the rhythm became that all the disasters were caused by the lack of supervision and management of the Illuminati and the Avengers.
If superheroes could accept the government's jurisdiction and orders, there would be no New York subway tragedy and super-powered criminals.
Even though the New York FBI announced the real cause of the subway disaster, the plot was still deliberately misleading by some people, who believed that all this was the responsibility of the Illuminati and the Avengers!
In just three days, a wave of public opinion overwhelmingly attacked the superheroes. Even many members of Congress stood in front of the media and publicly stated that if the superheroes chose to accept the jurisdiction of Congress, the United States would definitely become safer.
And within these three days, the "Superhero Registration Act" that had been under discussion was directly approved and officially began to be implemented.
For a while, the Illuminati and all the superheroes of the Avengers seemed to have become "rats crossing the street" condemned by the whole world!
Inside the Illuminati base.
They watched as they were condemned by people all over the United States, and even saw inexplicable parades against them appear in major cities.
Tony Stark's expression was extremely serious at this moment. "Sure enough, things went according to our plan. By the way, New York, like other cities, also saw large-scale public demonstrations."
"Lin, those politicians in Congress are behind this, right? Now the Illuminati and the Avengers seem to be being accused by the whole world. Should we release the video?"
In response to Tony's question, Lynn said, "The marches in other cities, which incited public opinion against us, were manipulated by Congress, but the march in New York was secretly promoted by me!"
"Ok?"
Tony was a little confused when he heard Lin En say this, but Lin En didn't explain: "As for the video, there's no rush to post it. Let's wait and see!"
As he was speaking, Friday suddenly said, "Everyone, the parade has appeared at the Illuminati base, and dozens of media outlets are outside the base wanting to interview us!"
As Friday finished speaking, waves of "condemnation" suddenly came from outside the base.
Listening to those extremely "radical" voices, Tony looked at Lin En with a bit of surprise and asked, "Are you sure you really were the one secretly pushing the parade? Why do their curses seem even more extreme than those secretly stirring up trouble online?"
"If I can't control my own turf, then I'm not fit to be the director of the FBI in New York."
"As for the person leading the parade, I also had someone find him!"
As he was speaking, Lin En's cell phone rang.
After picking up his phone and glancing at the text message, Lin En asked Friday to change the channel. On the screen, the Secretary of State stood at the entrance of the Pentagon, holding the registration bill in his hand and speaking into the camera, "After discussion and deliberation in Congress, the Superhero Registration Act, proposed by Congressman Conley Dwyer and personally promoted by me, will officially take effect."
"Next, I will personally go to New York to urge members of the Illuminati and the Avengers to sign this agreement."
After hearing the Secretary of State's words, one of the reporters immediately asked, "Mr. Secretary, if those superheroes are unwilling to sign this agreement, what will you do? Will you put them on the wanted list?"
"Mr. Secretary, both online and in the public opinion, everyone believes that superheroes are the source of disasters. What are your thoughts on this?"
Mr. Secretary
Looking at the reporters' barrage of questions, the Secretary of State immediately said, "The passage of this bill means that Congress has the authority to supervise and manage these superheroes. For the sake of our country's safety, I hope the Illuminati and the Avengers superheroes will sign the document!"
"I know it's difficult for superheroes to accept this agreement, but for the sake of greater security for the country and the people, I hope the superheroes will consider it carefully."
"Of course, if someone refuses to sign the document, then the best option is to 'retire' and never use their extraordinary abilities again for the rest of their lives. Otherwise, they will be considered a threat to national security!"
Looking at the Secretary of State being interviewed on TV, Lin En turned around and said, "The show has finally begun. Do you want to finish it together?"
After hearing Lynn's words, Steve and Tony stood up at the same time, and then followed Lynn out of the base.
When they saw Lynn, Captain America, and Iron Man appear at the same time, the demonstrators became more "radical". Dozens of media outlets gave up interviewing the demonstrators and rushed to the three to ask questions.
"Mr. Hall, we just received news that the Superhero Registration Act has officially come into effect. The Secretary of State claims that failure to sign this agreement would constitute treason. What are your thoughts on this?"
"Captain Rogers, will you choose to sign this bill and accept the supervision and orders of the US government from now on, or will you choose 'treason'?"
"Mr. Stark, if you don't sign the bill, you will be wanted, arrested, and then tried for treason. What do you think?"
Listening to these reporters constantly tampering with the Secretary of State's words, even turning the crime of endangering national security into treason.
Tony and Steve looked at each other.
Well, it goes without saying that these reporters must have asked these questions according to Lin En's orders!
"Quiet!"
Following Lin En's words of silence, the reporters who were just talking and interviewing shut up one after another. Even the leader of the protest march stretched out his hands to signal the team to be quiet.
After seeing the scene quiet down, Lin En looked at the dozens of media outlets and the huge parade in front of him and said directly, "I know that everyone wants the Illuminati and the Avengers to sign the Superhero Homepage Act to better protect the world!"
"But you may not understand that the real purpose of this bill is to split the superhero team!"
After hearing what Lin En said, one of the media reporters who specialized in "cooperating" with the New York FBI immediately asked, "Mr. Lin En, are you saying that the Superhero Registration Act is intended to split the Illuminati and the Avengers?"
"Yes!"
Looking at the suspicious crowd, Lin En nodded and said, "First, let me explain why we disagree with signing this bill. I know that the original intention of Congress to pass this bill was to supervise and manage the actions of superheroes."
"But if the Illuminati and the Avengers accept this agreement, not only will all superheroes lose their human rights and personal freedoms, they will also become tools in the hands of those in power!"
"And if this power is controlled by an ambitious individual under the pretext of a 'bill agreement', the entire world will be faced with a massive disaster!"
Having said that, Lin En looked at the crowd that had quieted down and were all looking at him, and then continued, "I think you should not have forgotten what happened with Hydra!"
"SHIELD has been infiltrated and controlled by Hydra. The U.S. Congress, the Pentagon, and the political arenas of every state and city are also filled with the shadow of Hydra. If it weren't for the Illuminati and the Avengers turning the tide and destroying Hydra, then the Earth would have fallen into Hydra's hands by now!"
"Perhaps you think I'm exaggerating, but who can guarantee that there aren't other ambitious conspirators in the political arena right now?"
"Just like this reporter said, now that the bill has passed, if we are unwilling to sign it, we will be wanted and even charged with treason!"
"But have you ever thought about why we would be charged with such a serious crime if we didn't sign the bill?"
After hearing what Lin En said, both the reporters and the protesters looked at each other and began to speculate in low voices.
Yes, he is a superhero who has saved the world more than once. Even if he is unwilling to sign the bill, he should not be charged with such a serious crime as treason!
I saw that everyone had expressions of speculation and suspicion in their hearts.
Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Lin En continued to increase the weight: "I can tell you why this is so. That's because this bill itself is a conspiracy against the Illuminati and the Avengers. It is intended to split all superheroes and even trigger a civil war, so that the real conspirators can rule the world!"
"Including the superpowered criminals who have appeared in New York these days, and the tragic subway collision, these are all orchestrated by the mastermind behind the scenes. Their purpose is to deceive you and then manipulate public opinion to force us to sign this bill!"
When they heard Lin En's words, there was an uproar at the scene, and the reporters pointed their microphones at Lin En.
"Director Lin En, do you have any evidence to support your claim?"
"Mr. Hall, do you mean that someone is manipulating this matter behind the scenes?"
"Mr. Lynn."
Raising his hand to stop the reporters' questions, Lynn took the notebook from Tony and then inserted a USB drive into the notebook.
"Of course I have evidence to support my claims. I wonder if anyone here still remembers Congressman Conley Dwyer?"
As soon as Lynn finished speaking, the "sponsor" of the parade immediately shouted: "Conley Dwyer was the congressman who proposed this bill, but he has been killed in front of Washington Hospital!"
"That's right!"
Hearing his client's loud cheers, Lynn played the video and asked Friday to use holographic projection to enlarge the video so that everyone could see it.
Watching the video, the dead "Conley Dwyer" suddenly appeared and personally admitted that this bill was planned by his master with the purpose of causing a civil war among the superheroes.
After the superheroes are both defeated, his master will be able to rule the world smoothly after losing his opponents like the superheroes.
By then, even if a superhero stands up, he will be wanted by the United States.
Watching the content in the video, the people marching at the scene were once again in an uproar.
The people who learned the truth were immediately outraged, and some even cursed the president.
"Tsk, they're scolding the wrong person. They should be scolding the Secretary of State!"
Listening to the vicious curses of the marchers, Tony Stark whispered to Steve, "Why haven't Black Bolt and Medusa come yet?"
As soon as Tony finished speaking, a helicopter appeared above everyone.
Soon, Black Bolt and Medusa walked down from the helicopter and came to Lynn.
"I think everyone should know us. Yes, we are the leaders of the Inhumans, and we are the ones who signed the registration bill on behalf of the Inhumans in Washington!"
In front of the camera and the parade, Medusa said: "Originally, we Inhumans lived on the island of Attilan and did not interfere with humans. But Conley Dwyer and the mastermind behind it destroyed Attilan."
"Not only that, the mastermind behind this has also instigated many 'bigwigs' to demand that we Inhumans must sign the registration bill. If we don't sign, then we will start a war between humans and us Inhumans!"
"In order to protect our compatriots from the persecution of war and to prevent heavy casualties among humans, we, the Inhumans, have no choice but to sign this bill."
At this point, Medusa looked at the camera and said, "But since this bill was signed, the US government has imprisoned us Inhumans on Staten Island. The purpose is to monitor the Illuminati and the Avengers at all times."
"If the Illuminati and the Avengers are unwilling to sign the bill, the Inhumans will comply with the orders of the US government and directly eliminate all superheroes!"
