Chapter 285 Don’t Let the Petty-Minded Fury Hear This

"Don't forget about Stark Tower. Pepper can't handle it alone. I don't want to hear her nagging me all the time..."

Leaving behind this sentence that seemed a little confusing to others, Tony closed the mask of his armor and flew towards the Atlantic Ocean first.

"Is he... hoping you can go back soon?"

Skye looked at the faces of Mark 6 and Lainie who were leaving with a strange look, and then said with a joking tone:

"Is the famous Tony Stark usually so dishonest?"

Laini rolled her eyes at her and didn't respond to this guy's words.

"Okay, it's time to rest, and we're going back!"

So far, the matter in Benghazi has come to an end, and General Ross will handle the rest.

As for Lawrence and Colonel Ka, General Ross specifically asked Roddy to continue searching for their traces in Benghazi.

Lainie believed that it would not take long for the two men to be found by the angry General Ross.

It is worth mentioning that there are too many confidential clauses of SHIELD involved in this incident, especially because of Lainie's unscrupulous use of space ability, which has caused many people to know that there are superpowers in this world.

Therefore, in order to control the development of public opinion, the Italian branch of SHIELD has placed all personnel involved in 084, nuclear weapons and other tasks, including several CIA intelligence personnel who were rescued before, under separate supervision and secret interrogation.

This naturally includes Hassan, the commander of the local government army who was knocked unconscious by Lainie, and members of the B1 and B2 teams including Price.

The only difference is that Price and others were asked by Lainie to take special care, so they were not harassed by the local branch agents of SHIELD.

After some simple inquiries and signing of a confidentiality agreement, the 141 Special Service Team and the Alloy Team were handed over to General Ross by SHIELD.

Of course, these are all things that happened after Lainie and the others left Italy...

No one talked along the way. After a long flight of several hours, the members of the investigation team successfully returned to the Trident headquarters of SHIELD in Washington.

As expected, what happened to the investigation team in Benghazi was widely spread within SHIELD, of course, this was limited to the nuclear crisis.

Just like when they returned from the last Arctic mission, many field agents who had not yet finished their get off work gathered in the underground hangar spontaneously when they heard that Lainie and others were back, waiting for the investigation team to get off the plane.

"There are a lot of people outside to welcome us!"

Skye saw the crowds gathering outside the fighter plane through the porthole, and his face was filled with an excited smile unconsciously.

"Ahem! Calm down, this is just a small scene."

Laini took out her sunglasses from the void and put them on again. She had dark circles under her eyes from staying up late. She didn't get enough sleep on the plane just now, so she couldn't let anyone see any clues at this moment.

Seeing this, the others followed suit. They all had sunglasses, and they were gifts from Lainie. At this time, they could just use them to cover their dark circles and maintain their "glorious image".

As the hatch slowly opened, the men and women in sunglasses, led by Lainie, slowly revealed their true faces, and the underground hangar immediately burst into strong applause and cheers.

"Wow! Well done, Lainie!"

"You are so handsome!"

The cheers were mixed with such praises and compliments. Some straightforward male agents even openly began to express their love to several beauties in the investigation team, making Skye and Simmons embarrassed.

"Okay, okay, you guys should be more restrained. You scared the girls. And Bart, shouldn't you be organizing training in the rapid reaction force at this time?"

A tall man in the crowd saw that he was named, and he immediately shrank his neck in fear. He looked around to make sure that Captain Rumlow was not there, and then scratched the back of his head and smiled foolishly.

"So you sneaked out? You're done, I'll tell Rumlow later."

Laini smiled and joked, then raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"We did only what we could do, we're not heroes, even if it was you, I think you could handle it."

That's right, it's not difficult for some of SHIELD's top agents to dismantle a nuclear bomb with bare hands, if they were well prepared, the nuclear bomb in Benghazi might not even have a chance to be launched.

"We can't dismantle a nuclear bomb in the sky." Someone joked.

Laini looked at the man and shook her head, it's just that my ability happened to be able to deal with it, but if it weren't for my ability, we wouldn't have allowed the nuclear bomb to enter the launch program in the first place.

This is indeed the case, it was precisely because Lainie believed that she had the ability to contain the nuclear bomb that she didn't dismantle the nuclear bomb directly with Tony as soon as she arrived at the scene.

If Ward was in charge of this matter, I'm afraid he would have dismantled the nuclear bomb directly after landing.

This is also a problem that Lainie has noticed. Sometimes, relying too much on spatial abilities is not necessarily a good thing...

After briefly chatting with everyone about the insignificant fun things during the mission, Lainie glanced in the direction outside the crowd and then greeted everyone.

"Okay, let's stop here today. We have been running back and forth for so long and we need to rest. Everyone, please train when it's time to train and leave when it's time to leave!"

"Yes, Deputy Director Lainie!"

The crowd responded in a booing manner, and then gradually dispersed in laughter.

"Don't let Fury hear this."

Natasha, who was standing by, whispered to Lainie's ear and then followed the crowd to leave the hangar hall.

Lainie looked at Natasha's back and shrugged.

There's no way, who can blame me for having such a strong personality?

When most people had left, Lainie looked away again, and a man with an increasingly dangerous hairline was standing there waiting for everyone.

"I'll pretend I didn't hear what happened just now."

Coulson spoke first as he approached, with a hint of ridicule in his tone, but Lainie knew the meaning of his words very well.

Lainie took out a $10 bill from her palm like a magic trick, and pretended to be guilty and handed it to Coulson.

"Ahem! As usual, hush money... what do you want from me?"

The good old man Coulson smiled brighter when he saw this, and stuffed the banknote into his arms without changing his expression.

"The director wants you, and he wants you to go now."

Laini frowned. Coulson was talking about You, which made her subconsciously look at the members of the investigation team who had not left behind her.

"Yes, all of you."

Coulson saw what Lainie was thinking, and emphasized again, while sweeping his eyes over everyone present.

"Now? Then Natasha..."

"She's gone."

Laini narrowed her eyes and stared into Coulson's eyes.

In the past, even if they wanted to know the details immediately, Lainie, the person in charge of the operation, and Natasha, the supervisor, would have to go together.

Why did Nick Fury emphasize that everyone had to go this time?

In response, Coulson just continued to smile as usual and remained silent.

Laini flipped her hand and produced another $10 bill and handed it over, and this time Coulson spoke.

"Colonel Lawrence has caught him, but something is fishy. The director wants to know the specific situation in Libya."
