Roland Fury's older brother is Nick Fury, the nominal assistant director of the Department of Homeland Security, but the de facto director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
His own younger brother is suspected of colluding with an internationally wanted Mandarin and attempting to murder an FBI Assistant Director of Operations?
If the federal public found out about this, it would be hard not to suspect whether Roland Fury's brother, Nick Fury, was also involved.
Alexander's suggestion was to let it go, for Nick Fury's future.
obviously.
Luke expressed his dissatisfaction with Alexander's behavior.
That's why the two of them argued.
After the reason for the argument was revealed, many law enforcement agencies' first reaction was that this was the real reason for the argument.
Everyone knows that Alexander Pierce was Nick Fury's former boss, so it's perfectly reasonable for Alexander to defend Nick Fury like this.
Just like Luke, who debuted as a hero known for his justice and West Coast superheroism, he is also known for not accepting any form of compromise.
but……
Alexander shook his head and said, "You should have told me before you went."
Nick Fury opened his mouth.
"Sorry, sir."
"Forget it, there's no point in saying all this now."
"I'm sorry, sir."
"The only person you've wronged is yourself."
Alexander sighed, then shook his head and said, "The council members from the East and Russia are also paying attention to this matter. They are considering whether you are still qualified to continue serving as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. if this case is not overturned."
Federal hiring practices do not involve online background checks.
After all, if that were to be done, it's likely that there wouldn't be a single person with a clean record in the Federation.
But the situation is different in the East.
Well known.
The Eastern Kingdom has a high moral standard when it comes to selecting people.
The case has become a hot topic after being sensationalized by West Coast media. If the case is true, Nick Fury, the suspect's older brother, is certainly not qualified to serve as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The reason why Russia also agreed is quite simple.
Russia will vote in favor of anything that would displease or annoy the Federation.
This time was no exception.
Nick Fury was stunned upon hearing this: "Sir, even if it's true, the one who committed the crime was my brother, and me..."
Alexander interrupted again: "After you left Luke's place, Luke called me specifically. Didn't he tell you that he hoped you wouldn't make a big deal out of this, for your own sake?"
Upon hearing this, Nick Fury pictured Luke's handsome face and that smile that he found utterly repulsive.
"The reason I closed the case so quickly is for your own good, Chief Fury. I did it for the sake of the bigger picture, for your sake."
"..."
Could this guy be a spy from the East...?
Nick Fury's one eye shrinks.
Alexander on the other end of the phone finally shook his head: "Anyway, Nick, prepare yourself mentally."
Done.
Alexander then hung up the phone.
After all, he had done enough. In the end, it was Nick Fury's own fault for not living up to expectations, and it had nothing to do with him.
He believed that even if Nick Fury were ousted, he would still thank him.
After hanging up the phone, Alexander fiddled with his phone, a slightly amusing smile playing on his lips.
After hanging up the phone, Nick Fury's face turned extremely ugly.
Not only has the case made no progress.
He can't even keep his own position?
wrong.
I still have a chance.
As long as I find a flaw in this case, I will have a chance.
Nick Fury took a deep breath and looked up at Natasha: "You just said that the name of the federal agent who was following us that day was..."
Natasha handed over the tablet as if she had been prepared: "I checked, Ben Starsiak, he said he has something we want."
Nick Fury: "..."
Chapter 230 A Small Man's High-Stakes Gamble (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe!!)
soon.
Thirty-five years old, still not even a Special Agent, with an ex-wife who requires a monthly alimony payment of $8,000, and currently almost marginalized, Ben Stassiak, wearing an eye patch, was led into Nick Fury's office by two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.
Nick Fury nodded.
After the two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents removed the blindfold from Ben Starsiak's face, they turned and left the office without any expression.
After Ben Stark regained his sight, his eyes narrowed for a moment, and once they adjusted, he saw Nick Fury, the one-eyed monster, sitting behind his desk with a gloomy expression.
There was also a man and a woman standing not far away.
If he hadn't known clearly who was seeing him, he probably would have thought he'd been kidnapped and brought to some kind of mob boss's secret office.
wrong.
Does this guy in front of me really look like a big shot in the underworld?
Ben Starsiak was slightly taken aback.
next second.
Just as he was about to speak, Nick Fury spoke first.
"You're the federal agent who's been following us?"
"Correct."
Ben Starsiak nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook his head, looking at Nick Fury: "No, I wasn't following you."
Nick Fury did not speak.
Coulson, who was standing nearby, took out a tablet and accessed the surveillance footage of the block where their Los Santos precinct office was located.
into the eye.
Ben Starsiak sat in an unremarkable car, his gaze fixed on their office building, which was disguised as an adult entertainment venue.
"Isn't this you?"
"……Yes."
Ben Starsiak looked at his somewhat sleazy reflection on the monitor, nodded, and then quickly looked at Nick Fury again: "But I'm not following you, I want to make a deal with you."
Nick Fury's one eye stared at Ben Starsiak.
"What a deal."
"I know what you're looking for."
Ben Starsiak took a deep breath, controlling his heart which was pounding wildly as he spoke, and pointed to the dossier in front of Nick Fury, saying, "I can testify for you that Roland Fury posed absolutely no threat when Luke Dane fired his gun."
After saying that.
Nick Fury, Coulson, and Natasha's expressions didn't change much, but Ben Stark himself started panting heavily.
Because he knew that after saying those words, he had no way out.
If the National Security Agency doesn't agree to his cooperation, then once the FBI finds out about what he said, his worst fate will be disappearance; he won't even have the chance to be recognized as having died in the line of duty.
After the deaths of Horton Lewis and Greene were confirmed, Ben Starsiak felt more and more that although his work continued, he was gradually being marginalized.
Ben Stasiak strongly suspected that Luke already knew he was also one of Horton Lewis's men.
He even strongly suspected that Horton Lewis's death was not the plane crash as officially stated, but very likely that Luke killed him.
But he has no evidence.
Ever since Horton Lewis died, and then Green died too, he has been on pins and needles every day at work, fearing that one day he too would disappear without a trace.
But he didn't want to die in the line of duty.
I'm only thirty-five years old this year, and I should have a bright future ahead of me.
Ben Starsiak screamed inwardly.
Last year, when he made his first big gamble, it was on Horton Lewis. After he did a small favor, Horton Lewis removed his trainee title and assigned him to the Los Santos precinct.
Ben Stasiak had thought he would take off from this branch office, but before he could even take off, the plane responsible for carrying him was chasing him. Moreover, his promising future, which he had just begun to see, seemed to have darkened again, and there was even a risk of it being cut short.
fortunately.
When he saw Nick Fury and his team emerge from the FBI, he realized that his second chance to gamble had arrived.
In life, there are always a few times when you have to take a gamble, especially since he has nothing left to lose right now.
Ben Starsiak gritted his teeth and looked at Nick Fury: "I can testify for you, and I can prove that Roland Fury did indeed find three mutants after he went to the school."
Nick Fury frowned but remained silent.
Seeing this, Ben Starsiak couldn't help but step forward.
Seeing this, Natasha stretched out her right hand, and with a flash of cold light, a dagger appeared directly at Ben Starsiak's neck.
Ben Starsiak, seeing Natasha's icy gaze, couldn't help but swallow hard, then took a step back and returned to his original position.
"What I said is true!"
