I'm a party

"Where do you get your confidence from?" Fury rolled his eyes at him, flipped open the file and motioned him to continue reading. "Tony Stark, not recommended!" Tony was stunned.

"It doesn't make sense. If you can accept my past self, why can't you accept the new me? I've recovered from my illness and my relationship with Pepper has been sorted out." Tony argued.

This romantic genius was heartbroken. It was already an honor for him to be able to join this team, but unexpectedly he dared to refuse. Did he get the wrong script?

"Anyway, this is my conclusion." Fury tapped the table and said seriously, "If you are just a technical consultant, then it's fine."

Hearing this, Tony's mouth curled up slightly, and he stood up and straightened his collar. "I'm sorry, you can't afford me, unlike this poor guy." After saying that, Tony left in style.

Lu Yifang rolled his eyes. This guy did it on purpose. He must be still brooding over the previous incident of being blown away. Yes, this guy must still remember this grudge.

After watching Tony leave, only Lu Yifang and Fury were left staring at each other.

"Why did you lie to that playboy?" Lu Yifang broke the silence.

"What do you mean?" Fury's expression changed slightly.

"Stop pretending, you know what I mean. Tony is probably already on your list, why didn't you tell me?" Lu Yifang said seriously.

"Okay, you're right." Fury spread his hands and sat down again. "Before I answer you, let me ask you, which came first, the superhero or the super villain?"

"What do you want to express?" Lu Yifang's eyes flickered and his heart was uneasy.

"If there was no Iron Man, would Deathwhip still appear? If there were no Captain America's heroic deeds, would Ross be so obsessed with strengthening soldiers that he created Hulk and Abomination?" Fury had a complicated expression.

"I understand. Superheroes and super villains are like two sides of a coin. Their essence is that they are both beyond the norm. The normal world certainly does not tolerate villains, but it does not necessarily need heroes either. Many people think so, and it makes sense, but..." Lu Yifang changed the subject and looked at Fury with a playful look.

"But this is not Nick Fury's style. You are someone who would happily build a nuclear bomb even though you knew it could destroy the world."

"It has been proven that nuclear bombs are indeed powerful weapons, and the nuclear energy technology derived from them has illuminated the future of mankind." Fury continued with a smile, "Humanity should not avoid it forever because of fear of new power."

Fury is a staunch radical. In his eyes, there is no right or wrong in power, and he never rejects new power out of fear.

"Then what do you mean by this?" Lu Yifang asked with a frown.

"There is no doubt that the world needs superheroes, but they need to appear at the right time. In my opinion, they lack the right stage." Fury smiled mysteriously.

"Superheroes...? Besides Tony, do you have other superheroes?" Lu Yifang tapped the table and said leisurely.

"Uh..." Fury's smile froze, "Okay, I admit that I need not only the right stage but also the right person. I am also looking for them."

"It's your business who you look for, but there is one thing I can tell you." Lu Yifang picked up the document and shook it in front of Fury.

"Why did you change the name to 'Superman Team'? Aren't you afraid that DC will sue you for copyright infringement?"

"The name has not been decided yet." Fury looked a little embarrassed, muttering to himself, if you hadn't repeatedly mentioned superheroes to me, I wouldn't have been affected by them to this extent.

"Then what do you think should be its name?" Fury asked.

"Isn't the reputation you had last time very good? Don't forget why we formed a superhero team? Is it just for justice? What we do is for the benefit of all mankind. Is justice really important?"

"Avengers?" Fury chewed on the name. At first glance, it seemed to be no different from a villain like Hydra.

"Forget it, you think about it yourself. I'll go home first." Lu Yifang stood up and turned to leave.

But Fury suddenly looked up and called out to Lu Yifang. "Yifang, do you know that Hammer is dead?"

Hearing this, Lu Yifang paused slightly, turned his back to Fury, and turned around after his expression changed slightly.

"How did you know this and why did he die?" Lu Yifang turned around and asked.

In fact, he didn't know, because Hammer was not killed by him, nor was it done by the White Queen. However, it was not true that Lu Yifang had no premonition, because he had already known Hammer's details.

"Within 24 hours of imprisonment, the jailer arranged a cellmate for him, who was then killed by the prisoner. The person who killed Hammer committed suicide shortly afterwards."

"Hammer's identity is so important, but S.H.I.E.L.D. failed to protect him." Lu Yifang narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

"At the time, our attention was all on Ivan Vanko, so he was arrested by the New York police first. Afterwards, we asked the police for the person, but were unexpectedly obstructed. Obviously someone was secretly behind the scenes. Before we could take tough measures, news of Hammer's sudden death came." Fury explained.

"I see. But why did you tell me this?" Fury was not one to share secrets, and there were countless things he kept secret.

"Because the criminal who killed him was a hidden mutant."

"Hmph, is there anyone who wants to discredit us mutants again?" Lu Yifang's eyes were slightly cold.

"It's mainly because we can't defend ourselves." Fury glanced at Lu Yifang's stern expression and continued, "Although the mutant's strength is only V2-, he has special abilities. His nails are highly poisonous. If he gets blood on them, he will die. Therefore, the agents in charge of monitoring him were unable to stop him in time."

"I'm sure you're no stranger to the fact that lone mutants are schemed against and exploited by others." Lu Yifang glanced at him indifferently and brushed it off lightly.

"Although Hammer is dead, his company may be able to find some clues."

"It was very difficult." Fury sighed. "What happened at the technology expo caused the stock price of Hammer Enterprises to collapse. After the company went bankrupt, all its assets mysteriously disappeared, including liquid funds and other assets. Someone quickly transferred all the company's assets, and the internal network database of Hammer Enterprises was destroyed along with many confidential information."

"It must be the military's doing." Lu Yifang gave the answer that Fury wanted to give.

Although the liquid funds were swept up by the White Queen, other assets were not. Lu Yifang once said that he wanted to disrupt the situation, but when the building was about to collapse, he was not the only one who took the opportunity to profit.

As we all know, a powerful arms tycoon must have close ties with the government. He either has someone in his hands, such as Howard Stark, who has a great influence in S.H.I.E.L.D., or someone behind him, such as Justin Hammer.

Justin Hammer has no outstanding talent or deep background, he rose to fame only by talking, and the support of the military is indispensable.

The relationship between Stark Industries and SHIELD is complicated. The military, which is at odds with SHIELD, naturally needs to support an arms giant that can barely compete with it.

Now that Hammer Industries is doomed, those who profit from Justin Hammer should stop doing so in a timely manner. Of course, the aftermath also needs to be properly handled, and it is best to clear out anything that is of no use as soon as possible.

"It's not that you can't find out, but you don't dare to investigate further." Lu Yifang looked at Fury and suddenly said meaningfully.

"You're asking even though you already know the answer." Fury rolled his eyes.

Recently, SHIELD has been clashing with the military, and the military has had little ability to fight back, but this does not mean that the military is afraid of SHIELD.

Never forget that this is America. Although the U.S. military is often exposed to various disgusting scandals, it is the government's own son after all. No matter how good SHIELD is, it is just a godson.

Besides, what is the point in fighting to the death with the military? Although there are conflicts of interest between the two sides, they are essentially minions of the government and have the same fundamental interests.

Killing each other is really a foolish act, so it is better to turn a blind eye to some things.

Fury didn't know that Lu Yifang saw through his mentality and knew that there was something fishy going on, so SHIELD would never intervene. As for those who were trying to take advantage of the situation, who knew who was doing it secretly? Those who got the benefits would be fine, but those who didn't get the benefits, how could they dare to show up at this moment?

"How boring." Lu Yifang waved his hand, turned and left. After obtaining the information he needed, he naturally had no intention of staying for long.

"By the way, I heard that there is a new maid in your house." Fury suddenly asked.
