Bucky has been a mine from the beginning. Not only can it detonate Tony, it is also a super bomb that may affect Li Congxin at any time.
During the period when he was controlled by Hydra, he was sent out to perform tasks many times. Judging from the degree of caution that Hydra had to brainwash him before each action, he would definitely not be needed in ordinary actions. As long as he takes action, the targets to be assassinated are not simple people.
And Howard is just one of them.
Since Hydra can create so many assassinations, of course he also has a lot of relevant evidence in his hands, such as the video on December 16, 1991.
And the biggest crime among them was not the assassination of Howard Stark, but the fact that he had successfully assassinated a certain president of America!
Once this information is exposed, no one can protect him until the truth is revealed and the real culprit is uncovered.
Since it was anticipated in advance that Hydra might use similar means, Li Congxin would certainly not be unprepared.
The search by the government departments was of course fruitless, because there is a special escape passage in Li Congxin's villa, and Pym Particles technology must be used to successfully pass through it. As long as it is activated, a person can be directly transformed into the size of a firewood box, and then transported out through the micro-channel, as if evaporating from the world.
When Li Congxin flew at supersonic speed and arrived at the sea view villa of Los Angeles, the search by the government departments had been successfully completed with the "cooperation" of Xiao Bai.
Seeing the return of Li Congxin, the FBI staff member responsible for directing the search mission took the initiative to greet him, "Mr. Clark, it's really hard for us to meet again under such circumstances. It seems that we are quite destined."
Li Congxin also didn't expect that the person who came to their house to direct the search this time was actually an old acquaintance. That is, the FBI agent Everett Ross who was responsible for leading the team to "protect" Old Pi after he was seriously injured and comatose ten years ago and asked Li Congxin to hand over Ant-Man Suit.
"But why do I feel that this is simply a bad fate." Li Congxin curled his lips and did not hide his displeasure. "Every time I see you, nothing good happens."
"It's not a bad thing for me to come to you this time. Mr. Clark may not know that the guy named Bucky Barnes is an extremely dangerous terrorist. Although you, Mr. Clark, are extremely powerful, it is also very dangerous to be plotted without any defense."
After a slight pause, Agent Ross asked, "Is it convenient for us to chat?"
The other party said this, of course, because he wanted to ask him something about Bucky, and because Bucky was brought back by him, this invitation Li Congxin could not refuse, nor could he refuse.
Nodding, Li Congxin directly invited the other party to enter the living room again to discuss in detail.
Not surprisingly, Agent Ross's questions revolved around Bucky, while Li Congxin's answer was typically uncooperative.
The general meaning is: It is true that he brought Bucky back, but he just asked the other party to listen to more music and did not have much communication. Bucky even temporarily served as his bodyguard for a period of time. The two of them basically had an employment relationship.
Last night, Bucky asked to leave, but Li Congxin didn't try to stay, so the two said goodbye.
As for the crimes committed by Bucky, Li Congxin said he did not know.
Li Congxin can't tell where Bucky is going.
The two talked for more than half an hour, but Agent Ross was stunned that he couldn't get any useful information from Li Congxin.
But now Li Congxin is also a very important figure in America, and even the FBI cannot take any coercive measures against him. In the absence of tangible evidence to prove Li Congxin's guilt, the other party could only choose to believe whatever he said.
Because even if you don't believe it, there is no other way.
This can be seen from the fact that he adopted the method of "talking" with Li Congxin instead of asking Li Congxin to "cooperate with the investigation."
After Agent Ross led the team to leave, Li Congxin met Nalan Bai's slightly nervous gaze and said casually, "Don't worry, everything is under control. But I'm afraid it won't be peaceful in the next period. You just need to remember the three no-nos of 'I don't know, I don't know, I don't know'. No matter who asks, you just need to clean yourself first, and you don't need to worry about anything else."
Nalan Bai was still worried and asked, "Is everything really okay?"
"What can happen?" Li Congxin took the juice handed over by the robotic arm, calmly took a sip and continued, "Now I am no longer the little shrimp that can be kneaded by politicians at will 10 years ago. No matter who wants to do anything, they must first be prepared to have their hands and feet cut off by me!"
Nalan Bai heard that he understood, and then opened his mouth again, wanting to say something, but gave up.
Li Congxin couldn't help but feel a little amused when he saw this. "If you have anything to say, just say it. Is it more troublesome than the FBI coming to investigate people?"
"It's not that troublesome." Nalan Bai quickly shook his head and said, "It's a matter of movie promotion. Ye Na has already released the trailer of "Marvel's Battle Through the Heavens", which has attracted widespread public attention. If we don't take any action, we will miss the prime time period for promotion."
Regarding this matter of business competition, Nalan Bai had already given up talking to Li Congxin and planned to solve the matter on her own. However, since Li Congxin asked, she could only explain it truthfully to avoid leaving Li Congxin guessing.
So that's what happened.
Li Congxin waved his hand casually and said confidently, "If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot. In fact, I have already thought about the promotion. Just showing a few videos of Steve's usual training should be enough to attract the audience's attention."
"I think the scene where he exploded the sandbag was quite good..." Li Congxin was halfway through his eloquent words when his brows suddenly wrinkled.
In other words, Pi Llama or other people who are targeting him will not know that Bucky's evidence alone cannot help him at all.
Since they have chosen to take action, they will definitely have follow-up measures.
So how will their second move come out, and from what angle will they attack themselves?
Also, will their next move... be related to Captain America?
As soon as this thought came up, he immediately threw it out of mind.
Now that the enemy has taken action, the more difficult it is at this time, the less likely it is to be suspicious and chaotic!
The fact that Captain America starred in "Iron Man" is his trump card for winning the first box office battle. It is absolutely impossible to hide it forever. If the other party's second move is aimed at Captain America, then it will definitely be impossible to hide it.
In this case, why should there be any hesitation?
When soldiers come, they will block it, and when water comes, the earth mounds come!
Thinking of this, Li Congxin looked at Nalan Bai, who was a little worried, and said with a smile, "Just do as I say and just release Captain America's training video."
After leaving Los Angeles's villa, Nalan Bai followed Li Congxin's instructions and released the video, and then immediately drove straight to Pym Laboratories of New York.
Regarding Li Congxin's guarantee, Nalan Bai is still not at ease, and she wants to hear Old Pi's opinion.
"Your guess is absolutely correct. Clark's current situation is not as easy as it appears." Old Pi sighed, and then said, "He is actually making a big gamble."
"Betting?"
"That's right!" Old Pi explained, "In fact, if he had kept a low profile when dealing with the Bucky issue, and at least not let unimportant people see Bucky entering his company and villa for the first time, the FBI would not have come after him, and a lot of subsequent trouble would have been saved."
"The reason why he didn't do that, but allowed things to develop to this point in secret, was of course gambling." There was a trace of nostalgia on Old Pi's face, as if he was remembering his youthful and frivolous years. "He relied on his foundation in America to seek greater benefits. The risks involved could not be seen by outsiders before it broke out, but he was undoubtedly walking a tightrope."
"Win, rule the world!"
"What if we lose?"
After hearing this, Old Pi showed a meaningful smile and said to Nalan Bai, "You know, I have asked him the same question before."
Nalan Bai asked, "Then how did he answer?"
Old Pi's expression became a little cynical at this time. He followed Li Congxin's example and said casually, "If you lose, then make a comeback."
Old Pi's sudden change of expression made Nalan Bai stunned. At this time, Old Pi had once again returned to his usual composure. He let out a long sigh, shook his head and said, "This is exactly what I envy about him."
"It's nice to be young."
After listening to Old Pi's words, Nalan Bai's originally hanging heart calmed down for no reason.
yes!
If you win, you will rule the world, if you lose, you will make a comeback!
Li Congxin is still young, so he can afford to lose.
In this case, what else do I have to worry about?
However, if you can avoid losing this kind of huge gamble, of course it is better not to lose.
Then you can trust me and leave the company to me. You can devote all your energy to this gamble without any distractions from the company.
If you win, I will see you dominate the world;
If you lose, I will accompany you to make a comeback!
On the other side, Li Congxin was sitting alone in the living room of the villa, with his right hand gently resting on the coffee table in front of him, and his index finger tapping the tabletop rhythmically, which sounded very rhythmic, as if an eminent monk was tapping the wooden fish.
This is exactly Li Congxin's habitual action when thinking about problems.
After Nalan Bai left, he went into Gravity Chamber for a good workout, taking a shower and changing clothes.
Then, he sat down calmly and replayed the recent events in his mind one by one, and then combined them with his own plan to deduce it repeatedly. Only after confirming that there were no mistakes or omissions, he withdrew his hand and rubbed his aching temples.
Thinking about too many intrigues in a short period of time, even Li Congxin's super powerful brain feels a little uncomfortable.
Taking a deep breath, Li Congxin immediately brought up the system interface again.
I remember that on the night when Captain America disappeared, he got a brand new Random BGM Draw Card before he could draw the lottery.
Take it out now and use it to relieve stress.
With a thought in mind, select the lottery card and confirm to use it!
"Congratulations to the host for using 'Random BGM Draw Card' and obtaining BGM..."
