"General Schmidt, I need an explanation from you."
Germany, command center, online meeting.
A senior government official questioned John Schmidt about the second nuclear missile he ordered to be launched.
"Your action has had serious consequences for our relations with the United States. The White House is unhappy about it, and it will affect our upcoming negotiations with the United States..."
.. 0
John Schmidt's expression remained unchanged in the face of these questions.
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it.”
His gaze swept across the screen, and he said expressionlessly, "What I did was protect the German troops in America. In fact, you should have seen those videos coming from New York. I simply made a decision based on the military's position."
"Have you ever considered how many international problems would arise if a nuclear bomb were dropped on Gough Island?"
“In fact, I know this better than anyone here, and it is because of this clarity that I am convinced that the decision I made was the right one.”
Then, before the people gathered in the online meeting could react, John Schmidt reached out and closed the meeting.
After the online meeting ended, John Schmidt twitched his lips and went into his private room.
John Schmidt pressed a button under the table, activating a hidden camera, and went inside.
A fragment of a gemstone lay quietly in the room, emanating an eerie green light, its surface constantly projecting shimmering images.
Near the fragment, the light emanating from the gemstone cast a strange green glow on Johann Schmidt's pale face.
He twitched his lips, reached up and pulled down the cloak over his head, revealing a bloody skull face.
Looking at the fragments of the Time Stone lying before him, John Schmidt, the Red Skull, muttered in a heavy, nasal voice.
"Let me see where the problem lies."
...Nine.
Chapter 879 Black Stains
“Mr. Harry Osborn, unfortunately, I must announce here….”
New York-Presbyterian Hospital, New York.
Alexander Pierce, head of the Superman Behaviour Oversight Committee, looked at Harry Osborn lying on the hospital bed and announced the news expressionlessly.
The Gaffner Island incident caused enormous losses to the entire Superhuman Behavior Oversight Committee.
Consequently, several committee members resigned, and even the committee's chairman, Alexander Pierce, faced serious scrutiny. In fact, the latest executive order was signed by the White House, making a reorganization of the Transhuman Behavior Oversight Committee inevitable.
"In light of the Havenas Island incident, the committee has decided to revoke your rights in the Thunder Agents 260 team. Effective immediately, you will no longer be a member of the Thunder Agents team."
As the Superman Oversight Committee relayed its latest decision, Alexander Pierce's gaze fell on Harry Osborn on the screen, and at that moment, the cold expression on his face changed slightly.
“Perhaps this is the best solution for you today, Mr. Harry Osborn.”
Following these words, Alexander Pierce broke off contact.
Lying in his hospital bed, watching the screen go black, Harry Osborn's puzzled expression shifted slightly. He struggled to sit up and held up the screen in front of him.
However, the next second, as his arm lost its strength, Harry Osborn rolled off the hospital bed.
Clang, bang.
Amidst the sounds coming from inside the room, the previously closed door opened, and Alexei Cisevich, a rhinoceros, entered the room with his back hunched.
"Are you OK?"
Seeing Harry lying on the ground, he rushed forward to help.
"Get out of my way, I don't need your pity!"
Despite Rhino's concern, Harry Osborne, with a sullen face, declined.
He gripped the bed railing with one hand, gritted his teeth, and tried to stand up, but the numbness in his lower body made his movements extremely difficult.
The events on Havenas Island, although Harry Osborn ultimately survived with the help of the Rhino.
However, his legs were severely damaged, making recovery impossible.
No one would mistake him, Harry Osborne, heir to the Osborne Group, for someone who is paralyzed.
Harry Osborne was naturally unable to accept this outcome.
Seeing Harry Osborne struggling to get up from the bed, the rhinoceros hesitated for a moment, but eventually stood up and helped Harry back onto the bed. Although Harry resisted fiercely, his actions had no effect on the thick-skinned rhinoceros.
With the Rhino Man's incredible strength, Harry Osborn was put back on the roof of the highway infirmary.
"Thunderbirds' agents have been disbanded."
Harry Osborne, panting in his hospital bed, looked at the rhinoceros-man standing before him and then told him what Alexander Pierce had told him.
"You are free from now on."
When Alexei heard the news from Harry, a look of confusion crossed his face.
Unlike most Thunderbirds, Alexei joined the Thunderbirds only because Harry Osborn gave him money, just as he was willing to participate in the experiment because the lab promised him a large sum of money afterward.
Therefore, when Alexei heard Harry tell him that the Thunder had been disbanded, his first thought was where he could find another job as lucrative as the Thunder.
Maybe it's time to go back to robbing banks.
The idea of returning to his old ways flashed through the rhinoceros's mind, but he immediately thought of a better way.
This was one of the few decisions that the not-so-bright Alexei considered a good decision.
Looking at Harry Osborne on the hospital bed, Alexei Rhino said sincerely, "I can be your bodyguard and continue running errands for you, just like I did on Havenas Island, if you're willing to pay."
"..."
When Harry Osborn looked up and silently met the rhinoceros's gaze, his expression changed slightly, for he was reminded of what the rhinoceros had done on Havenaws Island.
He was silent for a moment before replying, "Okay, if you want to."
Given Harry's current situation, he also needs a bodyguard to protect him. Although the rhinoceros is not very smart, at least he is obedient and will not go against his wishes.
"No problem, from now on you are my boss."
He successfully completed his re-employment and got a new job through Harry Osborne.
Alexei-Rhino stretched out the corners of his mouth, revealing an ugly smile.
Watching Alexei walk out of the room and stand at the door, Harry Osborne felt a strange sense of security.
But before a smile could even appear on his lips, Harry looked down at his expressionless feet, and his expression instantly turned ferocious.
No one wants to lose the ability to walk.
Especially for able-bodied people like Harry Osborn, who were once able to walk freely, such a blow is even more unbearable.
Feeling his numb, emotionless legs, Harry Osborn clenched his fists, wanting to shout and vent his anger, but not wanting to drag the rhinoceros man outside again.
Even though he knew the other person was definitely not there, Harry still didn't want to see the look of pity in their eyes.
Inside the room, as Harry Osborn tried to suppress his emotions, a sudden stinging pain in his arm caused his face to contort involuntarily.
Clenching his teeth, he lifted his sleeve, revealing a black stain on Harry Osborn's arm.
"When?"
Harry Osborne's expression froze as he looked at the familiar black spots on his hands.
Chapter 880 What just happened?
"Harry Osborn..."
Harry Osborn was no stranger to the black spots on his hands; he had seen similar spots on Bentley Whitman back in Raft Prison.
Harry just couldn't understand why these black spots were on his own body.
Was the last time on Havenas Island, or not?
Just as Harry Osborne was feeling uneasy, a call formed by a cacophony of noises suddenly reached his ears.
Immediately afterward, under his gaze, a large amount of black mist instantly emerged from the black spots on his arm, enveloping him.
"what..."
Suddenly, a sharp, painful scream came from inside the sealed room.
"Alexei, what just happened?"
"It's nothing, Mr. Harry Osborne just accidentally fell off his bed, I took care of it."
"Do you need me to arrange for a nurse to help you?"
“No need. No one can hurt Mr. Harry Osborn while I’m around.”
However, the rhinos outside the room did not seem to hear the sound.
“Harry Osborn...”
11
A thick black mist enveloped Harry Osborn's body, then, like life itself, flowed into his brain through his nostrils and mouth, instantly shrouding Harry's eyes in darkness.
