Austria, Vienna.

SHIELD Special Operations Office, inside the temporary command post.

Natasha leaned against the door with a look of helplessness, handed the information in her hand to the dazed man in front of her, and said: "Captain Rogers, I know that Peggy's rebellion has hit you hard, but you must cheer up.

We can't wait any longer."

No one knows what this group of last century lovers talked about when they met.

But ever since he met Peggy in the Golden Hall, Steve has been sluggish since his return. He refused to say anything no matter what he asked, and even kept silent about the content of the conversation that day. It felt like he wanted to protect Peggy to the death.

Paige's elusive ability gave SHIELD agents a headache, and even Natasha herself was easily thrown away.

I originally planned to use Steve as a breakthrough, but unexpectedly my captain actually "fell".

SHIELD's work has reached a complete deadlock.

But what Peggy stole was of great importance, and Fury was ordered by his superiors to recover it as soon as possible and at all costs.

Natasha really had no choice but to come to Captain America to persuade him to temporarily put aside his personal relationship with his children and focus on important matters, such as recovering the things stolen by Peggy. As for how to deal with it afterwards, she could put it aside after that.

Discuss.

"Obelisk... genetic modification... unknown death energy..."

Steve flipped through the information at hand, his pupils couldn't stop trembling, and then turned into anger, and growled: "Natasha, tell me. Why does SHIELD still study such dangerous things?!"

This research information on obelisks is shocking.

The number of experiments on the human body alone is about a thousand, all of which were used to test the obelisk, find out the true purpose of such an object, and try to analyze the structure of the obelisk.

"Captain...I'm just an agent."

Natasha understood his mood and didn't want to see any more disasters caused by these things. She patted the man on the shoulder and sighed: "But there are some things that we can't stop. The project to study the obelisk is the top priority."

Order given."

In fact, Fury is not really to blame for the obelisk.

This is a research project that has been established since Pierce became director. It has been reviewed and approved by the members of the Security Council, and ordered to continue until the obelisk is completely analyzed. Fury was also forced to do it as a last resort.

"Will these damn politicians never learn a lesson?" Steve said with anger in his eyes and gritted teeth.

"Hegel once said something." Natasha leaned against the door, looked outside and murmured: "The only lesson that humans can learn from history is that humans never learn from history."

Steve remained silent, holding onto the information tightly, his eyes flashing crazily.

This document about studying the obelisk clearly mentioned the previous director Pierce, which reminded him that Paige had warned him to be careful about Alexander Pierce, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Although he didn't understand the meaning, he was sure that Peggy wouldn't be innocent.

Alexander Pierce, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D., may have an unknown secret, and this secret is related to Peggy's rebellion, and now all the clues, without exception, point to the Obelisk.

"Captain, we don't have time."

Seeing that he was in a daze again, Natasha raised her voice helplessly and said: "If we haven't recovered the obelisk within seven days, former Director Pierce will report to the Security Council and directly intervene in this incident over Kong Fury.

."

"What did you say?"

Steve was stunned for a moment and said in shock: "Pierce...is going to directly intervene in this matter beyond Fury?"

"This is what Fury told me personally." Natasha shrugged and said, "I don't know if it's true, but the headquarters did send a team of people over, and based on Fury's tone...

...He doesn't seem to be doing too well."

Steve silently clenched the document, his eyes shining with an inexplicable light.

He vaguely felt that he had touched the truth, but due to the lack of logical reasoning and clues and evidence, he was unable to explore the truth more deeply, as if he was separated by a layer of fog.

Alexander Pierce is so keen on the obelisk, does he have some hidden agenda?

Steve rubbed the wrinkled document with his fingertips, thought for a moment, then stood up and said: "We must find Pierce and the obelisk and Peggy in advance, and we must not let him get the obelisk."

"I've been waiting for your words, Captain."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Natasha finally breathed a sigh of relief: "The team sent by the headquarters this time is nominally for support, but it is actually for surveillance. You should understand, right, captain?"

"I know what to do." Steve nodded slightly: "Who is the leader?"

"Grant Ward, an eighth-level elite agent." Natasha clasped her hands on her chest, a flash of disdain flashing across her face: "I have some problems with that person, but it is undeniable that this guy has a lot of combat experience.

"

"Let's go, Natasha."

Steve took a deep breath and said with firm eyes: "I won't hand Paige over to them."

"I was so moved that I almost cried..."

Natasha teased, causing Captain America to roll his eyes.

"Any news from Paige?"

"Well, I found it. It's in a bar. It seems to have been newly opened."

"And some bad news...Grant Ward is on his way too."

"Fake!"

...

...

...

The lanterns are on at the beginning, and the night is late.

Behind the busiest streets in Vienna is a completely different deserted and lonely place.

There were almost no people on the whole street. It didn't look like bustling Vienna at all, but more like a backward civilian area. It was a bar with a retro decoration, and the neon billboards turned on and off, making the sound of electricity.

The name of this bar is very strange, it’s called ‘xcution’, which translates as ‘execution’.

The bar was as deserted as the street outside, with only four people here and there, including an old man who looked like a bartender, and a man dressed like a waiter. The other two people were sitting at the bar and on the sofa respectively.

"The fish...has taken the bait."

The energetic old bartender wiped the cup in his hand and said calmly: "What are you going to do next?"

"Of course I took the initiative and killed those people!" the waiter said with a murderous look on his face.

"Don't be so excited."

The man at the end of the bar raised his glass, shook the wine, and said: "We can't do anything without confirming whether they are the target. Besides, if it causes a commotion, it won't be worthwhile to alert the hive."

"Bucky is right, we can't take action now."

The tall woman on the sofa agreed: "Just wait patiently. We have been waiting for more than seventy years, and now we are not far behind in a few days."

"I understand what you mean..." The waiter put away his murderous intention, took a deep breath, and said: "I can bear it, don't worry, I will never take action without permission before the hive appears, but

.....That boyfriend of yours won’t reveal secrets, right, Peggy?”

"No!"*2

Two firm voices sounded in the bar at the same time.

Under the dim lights in the bar, Bucky and Peggy had firm eyes, full of trust in Steve Rogers.

"I agree with them."

The energetic old bartender smiled slightly and put down the cleaned cup: "I'm a little sure about Steve's character. He won't betray Paige. Don't worry."

Seeing that the three of them were working together to defend themselves, the waiter stopped arguing and just brought the topic to another place: "That guy Yvette has been missing for several days. What on earth is she doing?"

"have no idea."

Peggy sighed and shook her head: "No one knows what Yvette is thinking. Her goals are different from ours, so it's best not to place your hopes on her. We can only rely on us for this matter."

Own."

"Tsk...she is a psycho!"

The waiter was extremely dissatisfied and said in a cold voice: "Obviously he was the first person to possess the Perfection Technique, but he keeps calling for my brother like a madman all day long."

"Zemo, I advise you to be more careful."

The spirited old bartender released a trace of coercion in his eyes: "You have only had the Perfection Technique for a short time, and you have only joined us for less than two years, so you don't know Yvette well and lack respect. I don't understand this.

That’s understandable.”

"But you'd better not say this in front of Yvette."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you...you will die ugly."

"I swear in the name of God, you never want to experience that feeling, a painful experience that is worse than death."
