I Am Gwen's Spider-Man Mentor

"What's the result of the test?" Ross turned around, took off the three-star lieutenant general's military uniform and hung it on a hanger, and asked the adjutant behind him without looking back.

"So far, there are no other abnormalities except that the death rate of homeless people in New York has increased by 20% and the death rate of veterans has increased by 10%." The adjutant explained to Ross the "results" they had achieved so far.

"That's all?" Ross was obviously dissatisfied with the test results. "Serum, chemical and biological research, plus nuclear radiation, the results can only increase addiction and mortality?"

"So far, that's the case, General." The adjutant continued to answer meticulously, as if he were a robot.

But Ross is suspicious by nature, and only in this way can the upright lieutenant stay by his side.

"Okay." The general suddenly sat down in his chair, sighed, and looked up at the chandelier in the office. "Then this batch of experimental potions has only one purpose."

The adjutant listened to the general's words without saying a word. He just took out a document from a pile of documents held in his left arm and placed it in front of the general's desk. The document said: "The Soul-Gathering Coffin Project".

"Only the dead can keep secrets." Ross stroked the cover of the plan, then closed his eyes and lay in his comfortable and warm office chair: "Have the other backups been destroyed?"

"Yes, I'm sure this is the last cold backup of this document." The adjutant replied without emotion.

"The last person who was related to this plan became the target of this plan." Ross closed his eyes and continued to warn his adjutant: "If you don't want to be next, then you must know when to shut up."

The adjutant nodded. All his glory and wealth were tied to Ross. Leaking this matter would not only be undesirable, but would also bring endless trouble to himself and even his family - why bother?

Ross waved the lieutenant out, then opened the cover of the "Soul's Chest Project" and saw a picture of his target: Wilson Fisk.

"Fisk." Ross sighed, "It's not that I won't help you, it's just that this matter involves too many things. If I don't get rid of you, there will be people on Capitol Hill who will feel uneasy."

The "Soul's Coffin Project" states that the U.S. Army will use biochemistry and molecular biology methods at the Fort Detrick Laboratory to synthesize something similar to the "Rogers Serum" of the year, and then use nuclear radiation catalysis to make it. A drug that has the potential to enhance the human body, but also has dangerous side effects.

These drugs will then be transferred to the gangster, who will be responsible for distributing them, mainly using homeless people, drug addicts and veterans as test subjects.

If this technical route proves useful, then everyone will naturally be happy. The "power" Ross has been striving for has finally been realized, and he can obtain an army composed entirely of "Captain America."

But if this technical route proves useless...

At that time, his superiors asked Ross to recommend a "white glove" who could serve as a channel and tool for them to distribute illegal experimental drugs. Ross almost immediately recommended Kingpin. This was his second purpose -

If the experimental drug turns out to be ineffective, due to the high secrecy of the test, senior military officials will immediately wash off their white gloves to destroy evidence that senior generals distributed illegal drugs at the VA Medical Center.

In other words, if the experiment fails, Ross can use the hands of senior officials to get rid of Kingpin.

Although Kingpin was able to be ruthless in New York for a while, he was still too young in the face of the huge power controlled by the government!

Killing with a borrowed knife - this plan is perfect, and it can just get rid of Thaddeus Ross's biggest henchman since 2001.

"2001..." Ross lowered his head, put his hand on the table, and tapped the mahogany table top with his index finger.

In an instant, the general's thoughts were brought back to that ordinary, simple, tragic but not so simple morning.

----Dividing line----

Professor Xu nodded to the flight attendant, indicating that she could take the juice away.

On the taxiway of John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, a Gulfstream G550 private jet is taxiing out of the hangar and heading to the main runway, preparing to take off.

“Buzz——!”

Raymond picked up the phone: "Hello, Raymond Xu."

The person on the other side of the phone said, "This is the Stark Industries Legal Department. Our case against Obadiah Stane has encountered some obstacles."

"Oh?" Raymond raised his eyebrows, "What's the obstruction?"

"An agent who calls himself Philip Coulson claims that he belongs to a... uh..." The secretary on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment, covered the receiver and asked Coulson on the other side: "What agency?"

"Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency." Coulson took the trouble to repeat again, and then gave a caring smile.

The secretary repeated the name of the agency to his boss, and then he listened to the silence on the other side of the phone receiver and the faint sound of breathing coming through the receiver.

"Well, what do they want?" After a while, Raymond on the other side of the receiver finally spoke.

"Their agency arrested former President Obadiah Stane and hopes to discuss with us and hope that Stark Industries will drop the lawsuit against him. They said..." The secretary glanced at the smiling Coulson and swallowed. He said after talking, "We will be compensated in other ways."

"Did they say anything else?" Raymond asked playfully, playing with the ballpoint pen in his hand.

Coulson continued to smile, while the secretary began to lament in his mind how he got such an unpleasant job.

The young secretary took a breath and reported to the young boss in one breath: "They said that if we sue, we will definitely lose because we don't have enough evidence."

"Ask them -" Raymond's tone was suggestive, "Besides this threat, do they have anything substantial?"

The secretary covered the receiver and looked at the cheerful Coulson across from him. He swallowed hard again. He seemed to be able to see the pistol looming under the lapel of the federal agent's suit.

But compared to the pistol, Raymond Xu is more terrifying.

So he repeated the professor's words.

Colson was still smiling, and the agent continued calmly: "The evidence that Obadiah Stane has contact with terrorists is not clear, even Director of Intelligence Stephanie said so."

"Yes, I understand." Raymond Xu on the other side of the phone replied, and then he hung up.

Sure enough, SHIELD would intervene in Stark Industries' affairs... Although it came very late, what Professor Xu had been preparing for finally came.

It was not that Raymond Xu had no backup plans for this. Stephanie, Director of Intelligence, was one of them, but the other party had obviously thought of this. Before attacking Raymond Xu, he took the lead in finding Stephanie and obtained the Endorsement from the Office of the Director of Intelligence and the White House.

Without Gwen Stacy, the professor would have been helpless and could only accept this political deal... But even Raymond Xu did not expect that Gwen's heroic act of saving people on the battlefield would unexpectedly benefit him. Another line of evidence is provided -

Of course, they were not the rich and powerful security guards that Gwen rescued. Although they all said to themselves afterwards that they would do their best to identify Obadiah to thank Miss Spider for saving her life, Stark Industries has no law enforcement power after all, let alone There is no authority to imprison this group of people.

The group was later taken away by FBI agent Jimmy Wu.

If SHIELD dares to find him, it proves that they have cleared the relationship with the FBI. Those guys who only knew to show their loyalty after being rescued by Gwen will definitely be of no use now...

But even the powerful SHIELD probably couldn’t have imagined how many interesting things they found during the few days they spent dealing with the endgame of Stark Industries in California:

Although he initially criticized Gwen Stacey's holy behavior, Raymond soon learned unexpectedly that the security guard with a broken leg who Gwen finally rescued from the bombing area was recommended by an insider. Just joined Stark Industrial Security.

The department where this internal recommender works is the Finance Department of Stark Industries.

Professor Xu then found this person and discovered that this recommender and the security guard who attacked him but was eventually captured were cousins... so it became interesting.

The recommender worked in the Stark Industries Finance Department and was a very influential middle-level leader. Therefore, after learning that his cousin was not only alive, but also killed by Raymond Xu, who was actually Spider-Woman. ——After being rescued, he decided to be loyal to Professor Xu.

Therefore, he can provide Professor Xu with a large amount of financial evidence about Obadiah Stane when he was the DCEO of Stark Industries, which of course includes a lot of evidence that Obadiah Stane and the chairman of the Nasdaq board of directors created a Ponzi scheme.

Since the 1990s, Obadiah has relied on the money stolen from Stark Industries' accounts, and he was sure that others would buy out his identity as CEO of Stark Industries, and the leadership of Nasdaq. Together, they stirred up trouble on Wall Street, taking advantage of the Gulf War, the war on terrorism, and defense investment to pocket a large number of investors' money, amounting to more than 60 billion U.S. dollars, and most importantly -

He didn't pay taxes!

The professor lowered his head and chuckled. Maybe Alexander Pierce of S.H.I.E.L.D. felt that with a huge spy organization in his hands, he would be invincible in this country, but he still forgot:

The United States of America is a nation of businessmen, and the United States itself is a huge corporation.

She once told Gwen that against certain people in high positions, a transaction receipt was far more effective than her fifteen-ton fist - especially in this country of merchants.

Therefore, even after entering the superhero era, the most powerful, influential and discursive law enforcement agency in this country has never been S.H.I.E.L.D.

The professor took out a business card from his breast pocket. Compared with the business cards of other federal agencies, this business card was obviously richer in details and generally showed the distinguished status of its owner - the business card had three letters written on it and A line of fine print:

"IRS."

"Internal Revenue Service of the United States of America."
