Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 1407: If I Said They Did It, They Did It

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The tycoon’s father had been the founder of SHIELD’s Strategic Scientific Reserve (SSR), and it was this agency which had absorbed most of what Hydra had left behind.

Luke was saying that Hydra was in SHIELD.

This was equivalent to saying that there was a huge problem with the tycoon’s father’s agency.

With a thought, Tony’s sunglasses flashed with some information about the Hydra assets taken in by SSR.

After a few glances, the tycoon broke out in a cold sweat.

The information showed that the SSR had absorbed a large number of Hydra scientists and technicians.

This was understandable back then.

After World War II, America and Russia had divided the German scientists between them.

At that time, the leader of Hydra, Red Skull, had been serving Germany, and many German scientists had worked under him. SHIELD’s approach was just to split the spoils.

Since Batman had told him about Hydra, however, Tony didn’t think his information was fake.

Is that why Charcoal Head had agreed to let Natasha come with him, and didn’t mind her listening in the whole time? The thought flashed through Tony’s mind, but he didn’t look away from Luke.

Luke had never seen the film where SHIELD was revealed to contain Hydra, so he wasn’t sure who was Hydra in SHIELD.

However, there had been a lot of “Hydra SHIELD” memes in his previous life.

For this phrase to exist, didn’t that mean that there was a lot of Hydra in SHIELD?

The only thing Luke could be sure of was that there were no Hydra members among the Avengers.

So, Natasha wasn’t Hydra, and neither was the bald director.

Would giving them this information affect Luke? Of course not. In any case, he didn’t know what would happen after the Battle of New York either.

With no idea how the plot would unfold, he naturally had to take the initiative to gain the upper hand.

Compared with dealing with Hydra in the future, it was better to take advantage of the current stable period to kick out some of Hydra.

How would Tony not know if the director ever got close to Hydra?

And once Tony knew, how would he not tell Batman, who had been the one to clue him in?

Luke had long been looking forward to this villain, who boasted that when one head was cut off, two would grow to take its place.

Most of the truly fearsome New York gangs had been defanged.

What was left now were petty thieves and drug peddlers at most.

With no other capability to speak of, these small fry might eventually resort to murder and arson out of desperation.

Not wanting to ruin Batman’s usual practice of breaking bones when he appeared, Luke could only remain in the dark and hit these small fry with his yo-yo to grind points.

He wasn’t earning a lot of points daily, and naturally had to make up for it in other ways.

Hydra, a legendary existence, had always been in his top three for grinding points.

The circumstances hadn’t been right previously, so he hadn’t had any intention of moving against Hydra SHIELD.

This attack was a crisis, but it was also an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.

What? It wasn’t Hydra who set Batman up?

Sorry, but if Batman said it was them, then it was them.

If Tony and Natasha still doubted this point, then Batman had painstakingly built up his reputation for nothing!

At that moment, Tony was subconsciously trying to preserve his father’s dignity.

One of his greatest achievements in life had turned into a massive tumor. His father would come back to life out of rage if he heard that.

Luke sneered. “Red Skull is Hydra, but Hydra isn’t Red Skull. Otherwise, it might as well be called Single-Headed Worm.”

Tony and Natasha immediately understood. “You mean there’s more of Hydra?”

Luke said, “Otherwise? Were all the scientists in Germany on Red Skull’s side? Hehe, even Red Skull and Adolf weren’t of the same mind.”

Tony and Natasha were unable to respond.

When it came to human nature, everyone was the same.

They were all mistrustful people. How could they believe that everyone was loyal to one person?

Just like SHIELD; even if it didn’t contain Hydra, not everyone would be loyal to Nick Fury, and even those who were loyal would be a minority.

Luke then asked Natasha, “What does Director Nick Fury want to tell me? Oh, if necessary, I can ask a certain person to excuse us for a moment.”

Tony gestured rudely at Luke in his heart, but just snorted and lowered his head to drink.

Natasha hadn’t left earlier; why should he?

Did Luke really think that everyone was a good baby?

Pondering for a moment, Natasha said, “I’m just relaying his words, but you may already know: He wants to invite you to join a program.”

Luke asked with great interest, “What program?”

Natasha said, “It’s called the Avengers. To put it simply, it’s actually similar to the team you organized yesterday. They’ll be responsible for dealing with unexpected emergencies.”

Luke hummed in acknowledgment and said, “Then I can only apologize.”

Natasha’s smile wasn’t as charming as before, and was even a little indifferent. “I thought so.”

She didn’t say anything else.

If Nick Fury himself was here, he might have something to say, but Natasha didn’t have the authority or right to make any promises.

It was likely Batman would clash with the government.

This probably wasn’t a burden Nick Fury could shoulder.

Even if he could, the meticulous director probably wouldn’t be willing to pay such a high price.

Besides, was Batman someone who played nice? Natasha didn’t think he was.

Delay tactics or stop-gap measures wouldn’t fly by this person.

The man was too level-headed.

For example, Natasha was confident that most men found it hard to control themselves when they saw her.

Even Iron Man Tony was no exception.

Before she had revealed her identity, the tycoon couldn’t hide the way he looked at her.

It wasn’t that Tony was lecherous; on the contrary, the tycoon, who had already reached a tacit understanding with Pepper back then, truly didn’t plan to hook up with any other woman, not even Natasha.

It was just a male instinct, and Tony couldn’t do away with it.

Even though he suppressed it, the thought had indeed crossed his mind before.

The man in front of her, on the other hand, didn’t hide his appreciative gaze at all.

In this respect, he was no different from other men. However, he could control himself.

If Tony fought her, he might hesitate slightly at the very beginning.

Luke would definitely blow up her head even as he was admiring her beauty.

This was an intuition which Natasha had developed over the years. She didn’t think she was wrong.

Also, shouldn’t Batman be this sort of person, anyway?

They were done talking.

Tony needed to go back and sort out the foundation, check for information on Hydra, and deal with the headache that was the aftermath of the attack by the test subjects.

Natasha needed to go back and do a thorough debrief with Nick Fury of this first in-depth contact with Batman.

Luke had even more things to do. After all, this was related to Hydra, a motherlode of points. He was already itching to take action, and had to make more preparations..
