"Ok?"
Kodaka Hasegawa glanced around, and what he did only made the atmosphere in the classroom, which had been lively because of watching the light screen, almost froze.
Feeling the sudden drop in the classroom atmosphere, Kodaka Hasegawa wondered if it would be better for her to leave. With that thought in mind, Kodaka Hasegawa got up and went out. Only after Kodaka Hasegawa left did the atmosphere in the classroom gradually warm up again.

"Hydra is really bold, or rather, Hydra doesn't even care about the position of Director of S.H.I.E.L.D."
Lupin III was rambling on and on to himself, while Daisuke Jigen and Goemon Ishikawa just stared at him without paying him any attention.
335: Because in the solo hero series, all the other superheroes are asleep.
"Why don't you two say something, like why I said it was Hydra that assassinated the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and not some newly emerged organization?"
Lupin III looked at the two silent men who were ignoring him and said...
"If you say so, then it is."
Daisuke Jigen said that he also felt that it was probably the work of the Hydra organization.
"I think what you said makes sense."
Ishikawa Goemon nodded and said.
"Ah~ okay, okay."
Lupin III waved his hand and said that he was actually quite interested in the laser pointer that King pulled out at the end, as it was quite fast at drilling holes.
[At night, Captain Rogers, having spent the whole day sightseeing, finally let go of his unhappiness and rode his little motorcycle back to his apartment.]
"That's great, that's wonderful. I have to hang up now, goodbye."
[As soon as Captain Rogers went upstairs, he saw his neighbor, the nurse who lived across the street, carrying a basket of clothes, heading to the basement where the landlord had provided a washing machine.]
"My aunt has been having trouble sleeping lately."
[The female neighbor said to Captain Rogers.]
"Okay, if you don't mind, you can actually use my washing machine."
Rogers explained that using the basement washing machine wasn't cheap, but he hadn't mentioned it before because he was afraid of being seen as a thug.
"Really? How cheap is it?"
"How about a cup of coffee?"
"Thank you, but I've already taken a lot off, and..."
"Please don't use your washing machine to wash my white coat. I just finished my shift and came back from the infectious disease ward."
The female neighbor politely declined.
"Then I'll keep my distance."
Captain Rogers understood the implication in the other person's words and said...
"Hopefully, we won't be too far apart."
The nurse also spoke up, saying that it would be fine for them to just be good neighbors.
"Oh, right, I think you forgot to turn off your speakers."
The female nurse had just left with the clothes when she suddenly turned back and reminded him.
"Oh, really? Thanks for reminding me."
Captain Rogers recalled that he hadn't turned on the stereo. After the nurse left, the gentle smile on Rogers' face vanished instantly, replaced by a serious expression. He approached the door, listening intently to the sounds inside. Captain Rogers suspected that someone had broken into his house and accidentally turned on the stereo.
Captain Rogers did indeed hear sound coming from the stereo in his room.
[Then, instead of entering through the main door, Captain Rogers went around to the back of the house, easily climbed up, opened a window, and climbed in from the outside. Captain Rogers, carrying his shield, cautiously infiltrated. The fact that the other party dared to turn on the stereo and not turn it off meant they were prepared and not afraid of a direct confrontation.]
[Then Captain Rogers cautiously peeked out and saw King reclining on the sofa. Next to him was a stereo—no, an antique record player. Because of his nostalgia, Captain Rogers was using one of those old-fashioned record players that played black records, not a modern stereo. The record player was playing soft, relaxing music.]
Upon seeing that it was King Rogers, Captain Rogers lowered his guard.
"I don't think I ever gave you a key."
[Captain Rogers said, or rather, he hadn't given his key to anyone else; it was clear King had come in on his own without informing him.]
"Do you think I need a key?"
"My wife kicked me out."
King slowly sat up and teased.
"I had no idea you were married."
Rogers clearly believed King's nonsense.
"There are many things you don't know."
"I know that, King, that's where the problem lies."
Rogers turned on the light and saw King's injury. Rogers paused for a moment, about to say something, when King made a shushing gesture, then turned the light off, took out his phone, and showed it to Rogers. The phone displayed "walls have ears," clearly indicating that they were being listened to.
"I'm sorry for showing up uninvited."
"But I really have nowhere else to go."
[King spoke to Captain Rogers, simultaneously implying that S.H.I.E.L.D. had become unreliable.]
"I think the assassination of Nick Fury Director King was done by Hydra, and it seems that Hydra's infiltration of S.H.I.E.L.D. is not as simple as it appears."
"To assassinate the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. like this, and S.H.I.E.L.D. hasn't reacted at all? Could it be that S.H.I.E.L.D. has been completely corrupted by Hydra?"
Kazuma Sato looked puzzled. King, the director, had been assassinated by Hydra, yet S.H.I.E.L.D. hadn't reacted at all. Sato wondered if King had been completely sidelined within S.H.I.E.L.D.
"That might actually be true."
Zhuge Cong nodded and said that at least in the early stages, S.H.I.E.L.D. should not be called Snake Shield. It's like the Distillery, but a little better. The Distillery relies on undercover agents to operate, while S.H.I.E.L.D. has been infiltrated too much by Hydra.
"If that's really the case, then why doesn't King seek help from the Avengers now, like contacting you and me?"
Hachiman Hikigaya asked, puzzled, "If he and Zhuge Cong, two powerful fighters, were to join in, and then call upon the other Avengers, wouldn't the situation improve significantly?"
"You forgot that after fighting the Chitauri, they went their separate ways. And how could Hydra not have expected King to contact the other members of the Avengers? If they could sideline S.H.I.E.L.D. and prevent them from reacting to the assassination of King, then intercepting King's communications should be just as easy."
Kirito said, and Hachiman Hikigaya nodded in agreement. Indeed, the previous contact with Twilight Agent and Agent Yoel was probably due to a communication device on the vehicle. Now, relying on other communication devices might not work, as they would be intercepted by Hydra. This would not only prevent them from contacting the other Avengers, but would also expose them.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. has been exposed, and there's a mole within."
King continued to update Captain Rogers on the situation via phone.
"Who else knows about your wife?"
Captain Rogers inquired, actually asking how many people knew about King's current situation and how many people they had on their side.
336: Vibranium Arm Boy
[Just you and me.]
Rogers looked at the words on King's phone and realized their situation seemed rather dire. After all, they were just the two of them, while the enemy didn't know exactly how many people they had.
"My friends, please."
King stood up and addressed Rogers.
"Are we friends?"
"That's up to you."
[Just as King finished speaking, a loud bang suddenly rang out, and a cloud of yellow smoke filled the room due to the unexpected attack.]
King was also seriously injured and collapsed to the ground. Rogers quickly located the source of the enemy's attack, which was the window he had initially entered through. Through the window, Captain Rogers saw what appeared to be someone on the opposite rooftop, because he saw a white figure or a flash of light.
Captain Rogers, holding King's hand, immediately dragged him into the room, removing him from the enemy's view to prevent him from being attacked again.
[Rogers was about to get up to find someone to treat King, who had fallen unconscious after being attacked, but the next second Captain Rogers felt his left hand being forcefully pulled. King wasn't completely unconscious yet, or rather, King's initial unconsciousness was feigned.]
"Don't trust anyone."
After saying this, King completely lost consciousness. Captain Rogers then discovered something had been placed in his hand. Opening his palm, he found a silver USB drive that seemed exactly the same as the one he had seen with Black Widow Vermouth on the launch ship.
"Captain Rogers?"
Captain Rogers heard a familiar voice calling him. Through the gap in the cabinet, he saw the nurse from the opposite door walk in, holding a pistol. Instantly, Captain Rogers remembered what King had told him earlier. Rogers felt that this nurse might have been a pawn planted by the enemy from the very beginning.
"Captain, I'm Agent 13 from S.H.I.E.L.D.."
"Captain, I am Commando Member 13 of the Hydra Special Forces."
Kazuma Sato mimicked the nurse's words in a sarcastic tone, then looked at Hachiman Hikigaya and the others who were looking at him and said...
"What's wrong? I had a feeling this nurse wasn't a good person. She must be a spy planted by Hydra next to Captain Rogers. She's here to make sure King isn't really dead, and if he isn't, she'll finish him off."
Kazuma Sato's words were not without reason, especially considering King's current situation and the words he had given Captain Rogers before he fell unconscious. It made one wonder if this nurse's background was anything but good.
Seeing that Captain Rogers didn't react, the nurse revealed her identity. Captain Rogers might have believed her at first, but after hearing King's words and hearing his ordeal, he wasn't so quick to trust her.
"Kate?"
Captain Rogers didn't suddenly attack his opponent, but instead feigned surprise, while secretly remaining cautious.
