Chapter 227 Nick’s Confession
Despite Lin Rui’s advance warning of the Hydra organization and Fury’s full fight plans, SHIELD has been dealt a heavy blow and its existence has also been exposed to the outside world. It took SHIELD and the World Security Directors a while to get the situation under their control, and now, more than a week later, Fury can finally relax a bit.
At this time, in the Director’s office at SHIELD’s headquarters, Fury was seriously watching a video on the computer screen in front of him. The video footage was shaking, but the picture displayed was very clear. There are two people in the picture, standing in the corner is the Winter Soldier in a black jacket and a mask, and the person standing in front of the Winter Soldier is Mirage Knight. Fury was watching a surveillance video of the battle between Lin Rui and Bucky that happened more than a week ago and he couldn’t understand what he had found.
Da Da ~
While Fury was watching the surveillance video intently, Captain Rogers came over from behind him. Fury apparently knows that he was behind him and said hello without turning his head. “Come and see, it seems that our mysterious Mirage Knight was hiding something from us.”
“Isn’t that normal? There are so many things you haven’t told me either.” Coming up behind Fury, Steve said in a subtle response as he knew that Fury keeps everything close to himself. But Fury can’t help it, he is the Director of SHIELD and the fewer people know about some things that he had seen, the better.
Hearing Steve’s calm tone, Fury’s heart jumped. Fury does have many things to hide from Rogers, but those are not important and Rogers will say something if he minds it. However, regarding the Winter Soldier in the surveillance video, Fury does not know if Captain Rogers has seen it before.
Fury actually knew about Winter Soldier, which Hydra had kept for 60 years from SHIELD’s internal data that was decrypted. So, in addition to Lin Rui knowing that the Winter Soldier in the surveillance video is Bucky, Fury has already guessed who he is. Fury asked Steve to watch this surveillance video together with him this time to make him prepare mentally, after all, Bucky is Steve’s best friend. If Steve finds out later in the battle, it may cause unnecessary accidental losses.
“So, I want to tell you one thing today. But, first of all, don’t get too excited or angry when you see what’s coming next.” Steve looked at him carefully as Fury continued.
“Hmm? What’s the matter?” Steve asked in surprise as he heard Fury’s words. Hydra has been exposed, what else was Fury hiding?
“See it for yourself.” As Fury reached for the screen in front of him, he stepped aside.
Captain Rogers followed Fury’s hand and looked at the screen. There was a picture of Mirage Knight and Winter Soldier facing each other more than a week ago. In Steve’s sight, the injured Hydra soldier was repelled by Mirage Knight, but Mirage Knight did not continue the attack him and stood still. Steve’s judgment about what Mirage Knight should be talking to the soldier was something that puzzled him.
From the perspective of this monitor, only Mirage Knight’s back can be photographed and the camera is just facing Winter Soldier’s front area. Just when Captain Rogers wondered what Mirage Knight was talking to this Hydra soldier, Winter Soldier’s face who had already risen up from the ground appeared on the monitor, this time there was no mask. So, when Steve saw Bucky’s familiar face, he felt as if he got hit by a train. He stared at the person in the surveillance video while his heart was beating rapidly and the memories of his best friend quickly surged up.
“Bucky?!” Steve’s voice trembled as he stared at Bucky in the video.
Noting the reaction from Captain Rogers next to him, Fury didn’t bother him at this time and he let Steve calm himself down first.
After seeing Bucky’s face, Steve stared at the surveillance video more carefully. He reached out and clicked on the screen a few times to zoom in on the screen.
In the surveillance video, Mirage Knight appears to want to speak to Bucky, but Bucky does not answer and plans to continue attacking Mirage Knight. But just as he was about to attack, he stopped. In the video, Steve notices that Mirage Knight seems to have shouted something him as he can see the back of his body shaking.
After Mirage Knight shouted something, Bucky’s mood seemed to change. He held his head in his hands and began to talk nonsense. Then he calmed down. The surveillance video is in high-definition, and Fury has already had some analytics read Bucky’s lips and that words had already put on screen as subtitles.
“Steve? Who is he? Who am I?!” That’s what Bucky said when he calmed down. When he saw the short words on the screen, Steve’s heart was racing violently and he already had a bad feeling in his heart.
However, he almost cried out when he saw the next scene in the video because Bucky rushed towards Mirage Knight once again and just when Steve thought that Mirage Knight was going to kill Bucky, there was a huge explosion outside the wall where Bucky was standing. The location he was standing collapsed and soot and flying debris covered the area.
“Bucky!” Steve couldn’t help worrying about Bucky, though he knew it happened a week ago.
There seemed to be a black shadow rushing out of the smoke and dust, and then the light flashed again before the surveillance, and then the black shadow rushing out was blown back again at a faster speed, and then the shadow finally wobbly on the wall behind it. It was Mirage Knight who had rushed out. Seeing this scene, Captain Rogers was very confused. He didn’t know why Mirage Knight did it but he had obviously seen that Mirage Knight didn’t want Bucky to die.
At the end of the video, Mirage Knight broke free from the wall and walked to the corner of the collapsed wall and looked down before leaving. When the figure of Mirage Knight disappeared from the surveillance, the entire video was over, and it returned to the original picture again.
After the video, Steve reached out and swiped across the screen quickly, and finally freeze the entire video at the moment Bucky showed his face. Maximizing the video, Steve determined that the Hydra’s assassin was Bucky. The owner of that face and he goes back to their childhood and he would not forget it.
“Later, I sent someone to find him, but I didn’t find anything. He should not have died, but escaped.” After Rogers at his side finally watched the video, Fury’s words passed slowly.
“When did you know?” Steve asked in a low tone without looking away from the screen.
“It’s been a while, but I haven’t been sure that it was him.” Faced with Captain Rogers’s question, Fury answered truthfully.
Boom!
With Fury’s reply, Steve punched the base of the monitor in front of him, making a dent in the solid base. Steve is obviously furious that Fury knew about Bucky and didn’t tell him. Bucky Barnes, his brother in all but blood who was in the army with him and who died while fighting against Hydra, and now he find that 66 years later, his best friend was still alive.
Glancing at the dent made by Steve, Fury’s eyes flickered. This seemed to be a bit different from what he had expected. He had underestimated the relationship between Steve and Bucky.
“Where is he now?” Steve asked while taking his fist back.
“After last week’s war, we have been searching for Hydra’s bases around the world. One after another, Hydra’s hidden team has been eliminated, but he has not been found. As the Winter Soldier programmed and trained by Hydra, he is no longer the person he used to be. “After answering Steve’s words first, Fury added another sentence. He didn’t want Captain Rogers to affect Hydra’s annihilation plan because of his personal feelings.
“I’m well aware of it!” Steve replied coldly and he had already sent this surveillance video to his terminal.
Call!
Then Steve didn’t plan to listen to what Fury was saying afterward and quickly left Director’s office after turning around. Fury could only silently sigh as he watched Steve’s departure, hoping that he was not wrong today. However, even if he doesn’t tell Steve this information today, he will find out this information for himself in the future, and things will probably get worse.
