Chapter 4: Nick Fury
Late at night, Washington, D.C. is still full of lights.
After the White House moved, it was occupied by nearby states and gangs, and perhaps everyone wanted to experience how good the president's place was, with dozens of gangs taking root here, and all kinds of fires breaking out every day.
Here, where there are no laws, where all order is broken, where criminals are a paradise and a cradle of evil, where countless addicts and miscellaneous people gather, Gotham City may be considered sunny compared to here.
Originally, Professor X was going to manage Washington, but the Avengers kept holding his nerves, so that he had no time to send troops to suppress it, and by the time he reacted, it had become an unmanageable black zone.
Zhang Lu drove through here, grasping the steering wheel on one side and the pistol in his arms tightly with the other.
To be honest, being a man in two lives may have given Zhang Yu a strong self-confidence, so that he is not the same social fear as in his previous life, but the fear and tension generated by uncontrolled chaos will not be reduced in any way.
Entering the city, there are more and more pedestrians on the road, but at a glance, Zhang Yu only feels that he has come to hell, some of those people are skinny, some roll their eyes and lean against the corner, and the garbage and vomit can be seen everywhere on the street, which makes Zhang Yu's brows furrow deeply.
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many people here, Zhang Yu didn't even want to slow down and rushed over with one foot on the accelerator.
Zhang Yao's arrival attracted the attention of some people, but no one had any out-of-the-ordinary behavior, which was barely good news for Zhang Yao, and after looking around, Zhang Yao turned the car into a small alley.
Opening the car door, Zhang Yu quickly put his shoulder bag on his back, and immediately opened the trunk and released Pietro.
"Get dressed, this is a place to eat people and don't spit out bones, I'm going to do something, you have to keep me safe."
"Don't worry, I'll protect you." Wearing a fisherman's hat that covered his silver hair, and at the same time a long trench coat was draped over his body, he nodded earnestly at Zhang Yu and reassured.
"There are quite a few mutants here, under their cover, use your abilities here, and you won't be noticed by Professor X, but you still have to be safe, remember, your speed is not invincible." Zhang Yu told Quicksilver, and then the two walked out of the alley one after the other.
Texas borders Mexico, it's a messy place, and it's too far from New York, so Zhang has to get everything ready as soon as possible, and there's nowhere else on this route to get oil and weapons easier to get than Washington, D.C.
Out of the alley, really down-to-earth into the crowd, Zhang Yu felt the chaos here more intuitively, and the unpleasant smell kept drilling into his nose, which made Zhang Yu's stomach nauseous.
Passing by a bar, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and I saw two strong men carrying a scrawny man and throwing him out of the bar.
The man was thrown into the filth, but he quickly got up and stumbled towards the two strong men, hoarse and pleading. "Give me a little more, please, I'll get the money, please."
One of the brawny men sneered and took a step back, as if disgusted by the filth on the other's body, and then he pulled out a pistol and put it straight on the man's forehead.
"Wade, this is not the first time, you shouldn't have stolen my master's goods."
"No, I didn't mean to beg you." The man known as Wade trembled and stammered for a long time, unable to say a word.
"The mouth cannon doesn't work? Ha ha. The strong man didn't bother to play any longer, he lightly pulled the trigger and shot Wade to death, and then seemed to think of something unhappy, and made up a few more shots at Wade.
None of the surrounding crowd stepped forward to speak, as if they had nothing to do with them, as if they had watched a movie, which reminded Zhang Yu of the previous execution scene of Hawkeye.
"What's wrong?" Pietro couldn't help but speak.
"Nothing." Zhang Yu shook his head and headed towards the bar.
In this kind of place, the bar is undoubtedly the best way to gather intelligence, and compared to the outside, the inside of the bar is safer, and no one will dare to make trouble in the bar with the support of the gangsters.
Raising his steps and stepping over Wade's corpse, Zhang Yu and the two walked straight into the bar, the two strong men were talking and laughing at the door, and they didn't pay too much attention to Zhang Yu and the two, maybe it was more important for them to discuss that the women on the street were sexier.
The interior of the bar was dim and noisy, but the environment was much cleaner than the street outside, and at least Zhang Yu didn't smell anything disgusting.
"New faces, what do you want?" Just as Zhang Yu was about to find a seat, a black girl walked over with a big smile on her face.
The girl had white hair and a good figure, but the smell of perfume on her body made Zhang Yu frown. "Find a quiet spot and have two more drinks."
"Come with me, my dear." The girl sent a flying kiss, and then led Zhang Yu and the two to a corner of the bar, which was indeed one of the few quiet places in the bar, but there was still a man lying on the ground next to the wine table.
"The wine will come in a while, the two of you will sit down first, do you need me to serve the two of you, only 20 US dollars." The girl leaned down and showed off her good figure.
Zhang Yu did not react to the girl's actions, but asked a seemingly irrelevant sentence.
"What's your name?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then thought that this was some kind of fetish of Zhang Yu, and she said with a smile. "You can call me Oloro, and of course, you can give me a name."
"Forget it." Zhang Yu waved his hand. "I'll call you if there's a need."
Hearing this, the girl was a little dissatisfied, but she didn't say anything, but turned around and left without saying a word.
At this time, Pietro on the side couldn't help but ask. "Do you know this girl?"
"I guess I know her, but she's not the one I remember, on the contrary, it makes me even more determined about our action." Zhang Yu picked up the wine that was brought up, hesitated for a moment, and put it back on the table.
Although Zhang Yu was very thirsty, but after thinking about the environment here, Zhang Yu didn't dare to drink or eat casually, and no one knew if there was anything in the wine here.
"You said you were going to prepare some guys here, how, who should we go to?" Pitro was a little resistant to the environment, and he spoke as he looked around him.
"We don't need to look for it, someone will take the initiative to come to us." Zhang Yu said flatly.
Sure enough, after refusing to know the first few women who came to sell him, a one-eyed white man walked over.
He sat directly in front of Zhang Yu, and very unceremoniously picked up the untouched wine glass in front of Zhang Yu and drank it all.
"Why, you're here to ask me if I need services?" Zhang Yu stared at the man and spoke.
"Heh, I just don't want to waste these two glasses." The one-eyed man grinned. "I know, you're here to do business, tell me, maybe I can help you."
"How can you be sure I'm here to do business?"
"It's very simple, I didn't come here to have fun but to sit here quietly, and I didn't even drink wine, I guess you must be some big guy, although I am blind in one eye, but I can see people very accurately."
"Interesting, you're right, let's find a place to talk." It seemed that half of the purpose was achieved this time, Zhang Yu got up and followed the man to the back door of the bar.
On the way, Zhang Yu also knew the name of this person, Nick Fury, and he didn't seem to want to keep anything secret.
Unlike the well-known black Nick Fury in his previous life, this Nick Fury is a white man, and he is also a member of the Roaring Commando Team established by Captain America, but it is puzzling that this guy would have fallen into such a situation.
