"Nothing," Pierce said, "I have never given such an order."
"As an old friend, I feel that at this time, your words... can still be barely believed." Ophelia's lazy tone revealed an obvious threat.
"But if it is really not your order, then I suggest you check yourself carefully, or if you are not willing, I can also provide some trivial help as the Winter Soldier's contribution to me. "

"...What makes you so sure?" Pierce asked.
"Of course it's conclusive evidence." Ophelia sent the video to Pierce, which was monitored by the Hydra stronghold that was attacked by Bourne.
Pierce received the video and opened it to play, his face gradually changed from questioning at the beginning to expressionless.
"Metal arms, five-pointed stars, super soldiers, there are not many people who fit these characteristics, Pierce." Ophelia said slowly, "Or rather, your people 'inadvertently' leaked one of the top secrets, thus As a result, someone pretended to imitate us, and even learned of our existence?"
"Don't take the opportunity to criticize me randomly, Ophelia."
Pierce snorted coldly. As an old fox, how could he not see Ophelia's purpose? It was because of the evidence given by Ophelia that he could not find a chance to refute for the time being. After all, even if he came to see it, The first target that comes to mind is my own Winter Soldier.
"Oh, he is worthy of being the leader of the most powerful branch of Hydra. He will lead Hydra to sweep away its decline and move towards glory. He can attack his companions unscrupulously and ignore past kindness..." Ophelia suddenly transformed. Master Yin Yang, his charming face showed just the right amount of sadness, and he looked like I felt pity for him.
"That's enough!" Pierce shouted. Even though he knew that Ophelia was faking it, Pierce still couldn't bear her charming look. It was like most people knew that asking for guidance too much would hurt their health, but they still had nothing to do. Just like rewarding yourself, this is a kind of feedback from psychological instinct.
What's more, Ophelia's charm is obviously not just physical, but only based on the charm of her face.
Speaking of women, how beautiful is Pierce?
But Ophelia is obviously different. Ophelia looked like this and was so charming when Pierce was young. Now, decades have passed, and Pierce has aged, but Ophelia still looks like this!
According to what Pierce knows, Ophelia should be related to some supernatural forces... Unfortunately, he only knows this. If you want to find out about secrets of this level, you will undoubtedly have to contact Ophelia. Forming a mortal enemy, if you think about it, Pierce can understand this. If he obtained this kind of power, he would never allow anyone to covet it!
"After I find out the truth, if this matter is really related to us, I will make up for all your losses and give you a satisfactory explanation." Pierce said.
"That's it?" Ophelia sneered, "After you find out the facts, yes, finding out after more than ten years can be considered as finding out, right?
Also, now that so much time has passed, who knows if you asked the Winter Soldier to return to the base immediately after completing the mission? Use this to destroy my base in a fair and just way!"
"Am I crazy? How could I do such a thing? You are talking nonsense!" Pierce retorted, "Every time the Winter Soldier is used, there will be strict procedures and mission records. It is absolutely impossible to forge!"
"Come on, Pierce, aren't you ashamed to say this? Can't records be forged? Don't treat me as a fool!" Ophelia's face was frosty. She was taking the opportunity to attack this time. Why?
Maybe he gave in easily without getting anything?
"The same words are given to you, don't treat me as a fool! It's just a surveillance video. Who knows if you faked it? Besides, the person in the video didn't show any characteristics that were obvious enough to be completely distinguished from other people.
! It’s not like the robotic arm can only be owned by us! And it’s only slightly exposed, so it’s not impossible to say it’s a disguise!”
Of course, Pierce couldn't give in easily, and he wasn't the kind of guy who would often be taken advantage of.
"So you mean no compensation?" Ophelia asked.
"I said, wait until I find out the situation!" Pierce felt a little headache. He fully understood Ophelia's purpose. If it were him, if he encountered such an opportunity, he would not bite a piece of meat.
He won't give up!
"If it is finally found out that it is the Winter Soldier, then I will give you all the compensation and a satisfactory explanation as I said before. If not, then I will send the Winter Soldier there, and it will be temporarily at your disposal to find out
The real culprit of the matter! Is this okay?" Pierce finally gave in.
The main reason is that he feels a little guilty at this moment... This thing does look like his Winter Soldier!
If there really is an "ambitious" subordinate who sends the Winter Soldier to do this, and he doesn't know about it, then he will suffer a big loss!
Of course, even if the facts are really like that, Pierce will cover it up as if it is not the case... It can only be said that Ophelia and Pierce, two old foxes, have a clear understanding and understanding of each other. It depends on who is in the wrong and who will lose.
Just how much.
You can also consider being shameless, but it's not to the point of breaking up now, everything is just a balance of interests and compromises.
It would not be a loss for Pierce to let the Winter Soldier participate in this matter - he is also very curious, if it is not the Winter Soldier who did this, then what kind of force and who can possess super soldiers at the same time?
, knew about the existence of the Winter Soldier and attacked Hydra?
What is their purpose?
This kind of thing undoubtedly needs to be explored clearly!
"One year of use." Ophelia knows the art of bargaining well.
This is like going to a street stall to buy a small pendant. The seller offers 500,000 yuan, the buyer counter-offers 50,000 yuan, and then the seller "seals the deal". Although it costs a lot, the buyer still feels that he has lost money.
If Ophelia agrees directly now, Pierce will definitely feel that he has given too much, and will regret it and want to give less. But if she continues to ask for better conditions, it will be different, and she will definitely be able to move forward on the basis of the current situation.
Get more and leave Pierce with no room for regret!
After some pulling and pulling, the final deal between the two was limited to - after the Winter Soldier resolves this matter, Ophelia will be at her disposal for another month. As for the Winter Soldier who cannot be killed or seriously injured beyond repair,
The terms will not be described one by one.
"Mazefak!"
After the negotiation was over, Ophelia naturally hung up the call with satisfaction, while Pierce cursed angrily.
Although in theory he didn't lose too much, anyone who loses something for no reason would not feel very good.
After panting for a long time, Pierce finally regained his composure and prepared to contact his subordinates with anger to inquire about the details of the matter.
But just when he took out his mobile phone and made a call, the doorbell rang.
Pierce frowned, looked at the surveillance camera, and found a familiar figure standing at the door of his house... Nick Fury!
