Chapter 337 Involves the "Insight Plan"
As for his change, Nick Fury's face as black as the bottom of a pot has not changed much from the beginning to the end.
The usual bluntness and indifference seemed to be engraved on his face, making it impossible to see his true inner thoughts at the moment.
However, at this time, he didn't have the idea of continuing to whet Pierce's appetite, but said directly to him: "I found some evidence that there is a Hydra person in S.H.I.E.L.D., and he is the kind of person who can directly interfere with S.H.I.E.L.D. operations..."
"This is impossible!" Nick Fury was interrupted by Pierce frowning before he could finish speaking.
"SHIELD's operations have always been carried out in accordance with regulations. Except for you, no S.H.I.E.L.D. insider can do this. Unless you want to say that you are a Hydra person, otherwise this kind of thing is absolutely impossible."
"Yes, the internal operations of S.H.I.E.L.D. must be in accordance with the regulations." Nick Fury said decisively, "But besides me, there are other people who can bypass this regulations and issue orders directly."
"You mean, there are Hydra people in the Security Council?"
Nick Fury just mentioned it a little bit, and Pierce reacted.
He frowned and looked at Nick Fury, the prudence and worry in his eyes could be seen by anyone.
"Nick! You must know what you're talking about. The Security Council is not something you can accuse casually. If you don't have definite evidence, then the most severe punishment awaits you. On this issue, even if you are the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., it won't help you at all."
"Of course I have evidence. Otherwise, do you think I would just come here for no reason and say this to you? The evidence I have is not at 01:30. As long as I follow the vine, I will soon be able to find out this big mouse hiding inside SHIELD."
"But you're not quite sure yet, are you?" Pierce, who guessed what he meant from Nick Fury's words, frowned again.
He stared at Nick Fury on the opposite side, and it wasn't until a long time later that he looked at him and said with certainty: "I may be able to help you, but you have to know that this kind of help is not without principles and without a lower limit. I have a lot of things to consider, and the accusations against the Security Council are too important, and it is impossible to ignore everything like before."
"I know, Pierce, the help I want you to give me is very simple, and it is definitely the kind that you can do."
Nick Fury, who seemed to have been waiting for Pierce to say this, took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, threw it in front of Pierce, and said to him.
"I need information on this thing, I want to know who bypassed me and passed this plan."
Pierce didn't speak, but directly inserted the USB flash drive in front of him into his computer port.
And when he saw the huge aerospace aircraft carrier and the extremely conspicuous automatic attack weapons on the aircraft carrier that appeared in front of him, his pupils shrank involuntarily.
This change in expression couldn't be hidden from Nick Fury's one-eyed eye, and he immediately asked: "It seems that you have the answer, can you tell me what you know?"
Pierce took a long breath, sat down slowly, and looked at Nick Fury opposite him.
After a long while, he replied to him: "This plan is called the Insight Plan, and it was passed through my hands."
"What did you say?" Pierce's answer made Nick Fury close his eyes immediately.
Looking at his appearance, Pierce immediately showed a wry smile: "I know it's unbelievable, but I did pass this plan. To be precise, this special construction task called the Insight Project was passed by me when I was the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. more than 20 years ago."
"It's not just me, even the other principals in S.H.I.E.L.D. agreed to this plan, which actually included Howard. It's just that I didn't think that this plan had been put on hold, why would it appear in your hands at this time!"
"I'm also very strange! Since there is such a plan, why did it stop again." Nick Fury's voice became indifferent, as if a cold machine was narrating an insignificant matter.
"I have been investigating things about Hydra recently, and then I discovered that there is a large amount of funds and personnel flowing within S.H.I.E.L.D. without my permission." Nick Fury's tone changed greatly.
"This flow caught my attention, and when I followed the trail, I found these things. Can you tell me why a plan that was shelved is still going on after such a long time? Also, why did you put it on hold in the first place?"
This harsh change in tone from Nick Fury let Pierce know that he had become the target of his suspicions.
So he began to try his best to explain: "When someone proposed this plan to us, we were really optimistic about the prospect of this plan. The insight plan has a cross-age significance, and can even kill all possible threats to the world from the most embryonic stage."
"However, it soon became clear to Howard that there was a fundamental flaw in the plan."
Seeing the change on Nick Fury's face, Pierce hurriedly continued: "The original intention of the Insight Plan is to use aerospace aircraft carriers to conduct all-weather monitoring and patrols around the world."
"And use the supercomputer set up on the aircraft carrier to monitor all possible crimes in human society, and then sanction them before they start."
"However, Howard believes that this kind of plan is not feasible. The variability of human beings is too great, and it is impossible to simply rely on the monitoring and calculation of computers to complete this plan."
"Unless humans can invent a calculation method that takes into account all possibilities. But obviously, this was impossible at the time, and even today, it is impossible."
"So, of course, this project was put on hold. To be honest, I really didn't think that this project really still existed. I thought it had been terminated long ago!"
Stretching out his hand, he interrupted Pierce's continuation. Nick Fury frowned and asked, "You said someone proposed this plan to you? Who proposed it."
"Dr. Zola, a Nazi scientist who surrendered to us after World War II and was recruited by SHIELD at that time."
Nick Fury asked in surprise: "Where is he now?"
Hearing this, Alexander Pierce's expression immediately became strange.
"There's no way you'll find him. He's dead, many years ago! Howard and I witnessed his death, I can assure you of that!"
The clues that were finally found were cut off like this, and Nick Fury was naturally very unwilling.
But for a dead person, even if he is the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., there is nothing he can do.
So he could only suppress all the doubts in his heart, and asked Pierce: "Is there anyone else who will continue this project besides him? I mean, does he have any collaborators or heirs?"
"It's unlikely!" Pierce shook his head and replied seriously.
"You have to know that they are Nazi scientists who surrendered from the battlefield. Even if they are included in our command, they are always under our surveillance. His collaborators can only be us, and as for the successor, it is even more impossible."
"Really?" Nick Fury showed complete doubts about this.
But he knew in his heart that it was already impossible to get more news from Pierce.
Since the clue is interrupted by him, it is difficult to continue from him, and Nick Fury must find another clue.
Although he knew that if he wanted to find clues, seeking Pierce's help would be a very good way.
But for some reason, Nick Fury instinctively felt suspicious of him.
And this feeling made him put away the USB flash drive he brought, and then stood up directly: "I will find a way to find some clues from other places. Before that, I have something to ask you!"
"What?" Pierce, who seemed to have noticed something, asked Nick Fury with a smile, his expression was as sincere as the mutual trust they had when they fought side by side many years ago.
Seeing his appearance, Nick Fury twitched the corner of his mouth, walked towards the door, and said, "Help me make a list. I need to know who is related to this insight plan. Whether it is the commander of the aerospace carrier or the maintenance personnel on it, I need to know the identity of each of them."
"As Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., I want to personally supervise and control the insight plan, and restart it openly. At least in my opinion, this plan is extremely feasible!" Nick Fury said firmly.
"Is it necessary to do this? You have to know that many of them are just following orders." With such a sigh, Pierce saw Nick Fury's ugly face.
So he immediately retracted his words: "Well, I see, I will give you an answer as soon as possible."
"As soon as possible!" After emphasizing the tone of the term, Nick Fury strode out.
And watching his gradually disappearing back, the gentle smile on Pierce's face gradually became ferocious, and even his eyes began to reveal a cold light.
"Goodbye, Nick Fury, I don't think we will have any chance to meet again in the future."
"Sir, do we need to take action?" The secretary who was standing outside the door came in at some point and asked him in a low voice.
