Chapter 65: Chapter 65 - Only a super-soldier can fight a super-soldier
"Captain, it's your turn to answer this question, if you have the judgement to do so." Nick Fury said to Captain America as he glanced at the big screen.
"I choose A, Nick Fury!"
Captain America didn't hesitate much, and after a short pause, he gave his answer.
[Wrong answer!]
But immediately afterwards, the system beeped, causing the crowd to freeze.
The answer was not A?
[The answerer, Steve Rogers, will be punished by having his shooting proficiency erased, immediately!]
With this prompt from the system, Captain America immediately felt as if something was missing in his mind and body all of a sudden.
He thought back carefully and found that his knowledge about the shooting had disappeared completely.
It was no longer recallable.
"This kind of thing ... actually happened?"
After Captain America carefully combed through his memories, he couldn't help but have a look of extreme shock on his face.
If he still had more or less doubts about the System before, then now there was not a shred of doubt left.
Erasing specific memories from a person's mind in an instant was something that only God could do!
Iron Man and Nick Fury were both old men who had been through the question-and-answer process and did not feel any fuss or concern about Captain America being punished.
Instead, they continued to focus their attention on the questions.
"There are some key things we should have missed, so what exactly are they?" Nick Fury stared at the big screen with one eye and began to sink into thought.
"I think we're missing something." Iron Man was similarly deep in thought and began to review their previous thoughts.
"Nick Fury, your analysis just now sounded fine, but that seems to apply against any assassination-type agent with a high level of secrecy."
"But the Winter Soldier, he's more than just a high secrecy level agent, he's also, at the same time, a super-soldier! We didn't take into account this status of the Winter Soldier."
"Other than that, is there anything else we missed?"
At this point Iron Man turned his gaze to Nick Fury, only to see Nick Fury ponderously add, "According to Romanoff, the Winter Soldier has been active for fifty years."
"Active for fifty years ..." Iron Man whispered before his eyes lit up abruptly, "Nick Fury, doesn't that mean that the Winter Soldier and the Captain are from the same era? "
Although the Winter Soldier was masked, not all of his face was covered, but the face above the nose was still exposed.
At the same time, the other man had long, shiny black hair.
He was in his thirties or forties, so it was easy to deduce his age from the Black Widow's words.
"Super soldier, the same age as the Captain, Nick Fury, you're in intelligence, can you put together any useful pieces of the puzzle?" Iron Man asked Nick Fury squarely.
"We can try running through it from the beginning." Nick Fury nodded with a straight face.
"Based on our previous analysis, it was inevitable that if we were to get information on the Winter Soldier, we would have to engage the organisation behind the Winter Soldier."
"And because of that, at first we all thought the answer was me, but there was another scenario we hadn't considered."
"The person who will be carrying out the operation specifically will not be me, and considering that the Winter Soldier is a super-soldier, there is a high probability that I will also be sending out a super-soldier."
Iron Man and Captain America both are very flexible in their minds, Nick Fury's words here, they have understood Nick Fury's meaning.
"So ... Captain America, or I, are the ones who are on the front line of the operation! We, Avengers are there to deal with the Winter Soldiers."
"And the other side is bound to send in the Winter Soldiers to fend off us Avengers, so there's still a good chance that we'll have a direct fight with the Winter Soldiers."
Iron Man took Nick Fury's words and continued, glancing at Nick Fury and Captain America, "And then what? Defeating and capturing the Winter Soldier? Forced his identity?"
"It's almost impossible to pry a man like the Winter Soldier out of his mouth." Captain America shook his head.
"Not to mention, the Winter Soldier may not be captured." Iron Man shrugged with a helpless look on his face, "So, we're at a dead end again."
"Prying him open is certainly unlikely, and naturally the Winter Soldier may not be captured, but Captain, you're from the same era as the Winter Soldier!"
Nick Fury suddenly remembered something and said it with a twinkle in his eye.
"SO?"
"so... whether or not you defeated the Winter Soldier is not important, what is important is that the captain found some clues unique to your era during the fight with the Winter Soldier."
"Then Captain you eventually deduced the identity of the Winter Soldier through that clue."
Crap!
That was a hard fucking circle back.
Iron Man and Captain America listened to that in awe and had to admire that Nick Fury was worthy of being the head of an intelligence agency, and was indeed no slouch when it came to the imagination.
But although this theory sounded a bit too coincidental, it had to be said that it stood up logically.
It even takes into account some of the key "labels" of the Winter Soldier, and in this way is even more plausible than the first theory.
After all, the first inference was not comprehensive, considering only the advanced agent label of the Winter Soldier, while ignoring the super-soldier and the period background label.
"So ... the answer to this question is a B?" said Captain America hesitantly, looking at Nick Fury and then at Iron Man.
"Do we have any other choices so far?" Iron Man was looking on the bright side.
Option B, although it sounded a bit coincidental, was at least analytical and had some moral validity to it.
"So, which one of us is going to answer?" Nick Fury also glanced at the duo, seeking the opinions of both sides.
"You analysed the question, and since the three of us have already finished our rounds, why don't you answer it, Nick Fury." Iron Man offered.
Naturally, Captain America had no problem with this.
"I'll take B, Captain America!"
Nick Fury didn't hesitate to say his answer to the big screen.
[Correct answer!]
Immediately afterwards, the voice of the system rang out.
