At this point, Light Yagami's lips curled up slightly as he continued.

"Mr. L and I speculate that the content displayed on the screen belongs to Earth in a parallel universe, rather than the future or even the past of our Earth."

"We just don't know why, what happened, or what someone did that caused the content of Earth in a parallel universe to be projected onto our side, or even that it was projected onto the wrong universe."

Gordon was taken aback by Light Yagami's bold statement, as it was truly astonishing. It was like proposing a top-jungle-mid-support-marksman system in an early MOBA game.

"Then, how does the ability be transmitted down from the light screen work?"

Gordon asked this not out of arguing or disdain for Light Yagami's words, but simply because he wanted to hear Light Yagami and L's insights.

"I have two vague conjectures. One is about salvation. That is, this series of events has already happened on Earth in that parallel universe. However, Earth was destroyed due to insufficient and immature power. Then, for some reason, it may have been someone's doing that the power of our counterparts from that world was transferred here. At the same time, a light screen was projected to warn us of the future crises in advance, so as to prevent our Earth from being destroyed."

"There's another one that's similar to the one above, but it's also about saving lives. It's just that the projection was wrong, and the projection that was originally meant for that Earth was mistakenly projected onto our Earth."

Gordon was shocked after hearing Light Yagami's words, which greatly impacted him.

"I need to calm down and sort things out."

Although it's unclear whether it's truly Light Yagami's conjecture, both points he raised were quite shocking, so it's no wonder he couldn't handle it for a moment.

"Working in such a secluded place."

Captain Rogers looked at the rows of files and archives and said, "I'm talking." Suddenly, he stopped because the cabinets here were completely different from those elsewhere.

353: Light Yagami: You see

The other cabinets were covered in a thick layer of dust and cobwebs, but these cabinets were different. Not only were they dust-free, but Captain Rogers also noticed obvious drag marks on the bottom. So, Captain Rogers gripped one side of the cabinet and pulled. With a screech of a heavy object being dragged across the ground, the cabinet Captain Rogers was holding onto was slowly pulled open, revealing an elevator inside—and not an old-fashioned one, but a modern one.

"Why would you hide an elevator here?"

[After hearing the commotion caused by Captain Rogers, Hyakki Gylvia and Black Widow Vermouth rushed over and saw the elevator hidden behind the cabinet. Hyakki Gylvia asked in confusion.]

[Black Widow Vermouth also took out her phone and pointed it at the elevator's keypad lock. The phone, glowing with a blue scanning light, scanned the keypad and detected the code: 8539.]

Black Widow Vermouth pressed the scanned code, and the elevator opened. Captain Rogers and his two companions stepped inside. The elevator descended an unknown distance before the doors opened with a ding. The area outside wasn't as dark as Captain Rogers and his companions had expected. Besides the elevator's own light, there were still some lights on outside, even when switched off, preventing it from becoming pitch black.

Captain Rogers and his two companions went outside. As soon as they entered, the entire room activated, instantly illuminating the previously dim space. Before them was a control panel, or rather, an old-fashioned computer, surrounded by monitors and processors.

"The data source can't be here; these are all outdated."

[Black Widow Vermouth glanced at the surrounding equipment and said, "With this setup, it's impossible for classified S.H.I.E.L.D. documents to have originated here." Gvia agreed with Black Widow's assessment.]

[Then, as Black Widow Vermouth approached a little closer, she saw a dark blue object on the table with two ports. This object seemed out of place with its surroundings; the difference between the two was too great—one was an old-fashioned computer device, and the other was a very modern one.]

[Black Widow Vermouth, seemingly without thinking, took out the USB drive and plugged it in. The instant she did, the previously dormant, seemingly broken-down devices lit up, drawing the attention of Captain Rogers and his companions. At that moment, an old-fashioned, somewhat dilapidated-looking camera lifted up and stared at them.]

['Start the system?']

[A sentence suddenly appeared on the computer screen in front of Black Widow Vermouth.]

[Type "Yes."]

[Black Widow Vermouth also stepped forward and began typing.]

Then, the computer in front of me suddenly started flashing green code, but this code was messy and disordered. Slowly, the code formed a blurry human face, and a deep voice came from the old speakers next to me.

"Steve Rogers was born in 1918."

"Vermouth was born in 1984."

"Givya was born in 2003."

"This is a video recording, right?"

[Black Widow Vermouth looked at the computer screen and saw that it displayed her and Captain Rogers' birth years. She was quite surprised, as very few people knew her birth year.]

"I wasn't recording."

[The blurry face on the computer screen spoke.]

"Of course, I may no longer be the same person I was when Captain Rogers captured me in 1945, but I am."

[A photo of a person appeared on the other screen, and Captain Rogers was surprised when he saw it.]

When Scorpion saw the person or computer on the screen, his breathing quickened. The other party's technology was exactly what he had been pursuing and wanted: to preserve and transmit his thoughts. What shocked Scorpion was that the other party had already been able to do this in 1945.

"You recognize this thing?"

[Black Widow Vermouth noticed that Captain Rogers' expression changed when he saw the photo, and that Vermouth herself had also stated that she knew Rogers.]

"Arnin Zola was one of the scientists working for Red Skull, and he has been dead for many years."

[Captain Rogers said this as he walked around the computer.]

"This isn't dead."

Scorpion disagreed with Captain Rogers' words. In Scorpion's view, Arnin Zola had already achieved immortality and had broken free from the constraints of flesh and blood.

"Um, but I feel like this is pretty dangerous. If we encounter the boss's AI Jarvis, we might just die instantly."

Deidara said calmly from the side.

"To correct you, look around you now, I'm not dead, I'm alive and kicking."

"In 1972, I was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Science couldn't save my body, but my mind had to be preserved. So I successfully stored my thoughts in a database of two million units, and now you could say they're inside my brain."

"What are you doing here?"

[Captain Rogers asked.]

"I came at your invitation."

"S.H.I.E.L.D. is recruiting scientists with strategic significance for Operation Paperclip during the original World Wars."

Black Widow Vermouth explained to Captain Rogers why this guy was on S.H.I.E.L.D. territory, and that his "invitation" was indeed an invitation from S.H.I.E.L.D.

"They felt I could help them achieve their goals, and I achieved my own goals too."

"Red Skull and Hydra have been destroyed. Even if you cut off one head, two new ones will grow back."

[Arnin Zola then demonstrated on the computer, first displaying the Hydra symbol, then showing two heads.]

Light Yagami looked at Gordon, who was also greatly shocked. They had always thought that S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra were established in the future.

Chapter 354: Light Yagami: The evidence the light curtain gave me has always been my strongest trump card.

Before Light Yagami told him about the origin of the light screen, Gordon, or rather not just Gordon but everyone except a very few people, believed that S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra were established in the future, since no matter how they investigated, they could not find even the slightest clue about Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D.

Gordon had only begun to have doubts after hearing Light Yagami's account of what was shown on the screen. Now, seeing the scene on the screen confirming that S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra were established during Captain Rogers' era, Gordon was completely stunned.

"So that means, Mr. Yagami Light, your earlier conjecture about the content displayed on the light screen is correct."

Light Yagami nodded in agreement after hearing Gordon's words.

"At present, it is still just speculation. Even if the speculation is very close, it is useless. Only decisive hard evidence is needed. The establishment time of the S.H.I.E.L.D. organization and the establishment time of the Hydra organization can be regarded as strong evidence, but not as decisive evidence."

"And did you manage to retrieve Captain Rogers? I remember that after the information about Captain Rogers was displayed on the screen, you sent people to retrieve him, right? I think you probably came up empty-handed."

L looked at Gordon and said, and Gordon nodded in agreement. After Captain Rogers appeared on the light screen, the Light Screen Organization and other related departments dispatched a lot of manpower and resources to find the frozen Captain Rogers, but they have not found a single clue for so long.

"This must be the difference between worlds. The Captain Rogers of the Earth world projected by the light screen was successfully frozen and can be awakened in the future, while the Captain Rogers of our world really sacrificed himself in the war."

Light Yagami began to speak, saying that the more comparisons and contrasts were made, the more convincing Light Yagami's conjectures became.

"Hydra's founding creed was that humans cannot control their own freedom."

[The display screen that was originally showing Arnin Zola began playing a video under Arnin Zola's control.]

"But we didn't realize that if we tried to take away their freedom, they would resist."

The screen displays a massive base filled with densely packed people in uniform clothing and poses. As Arnin Zola's narration changes, the content on the screen also shifts, transforming into a series of war clips, including scenes featuring Captain Rogers.

"War has taught us a lot; humanity needs to willingly relinquish freedom."

"Giving up freedom is simply impossible."

Kaguya Shinomiya murmured to herself. For someone like her, outwardly glamorous and elegant, she was the enviable young lady in the eyes of outsiders. However, the price for this was the exchange of her freedom for a lifetime. From the moment she was born, Kaguya Shinomiya's fate in the Shinomiya family seemed to have been predetermined. She was to be a sacrifice for a political marriage, a sacrifice made to expand the Shinomiya family.

It was worthwhile in the eyes of the Shinomiya family, but in the eyes of Shinomiya Kaguya, it was naturally humiliating. She was like a caged bird without freedom, destined for tragedy and suffering, and could only live her whole life in that cage.

"After the war, S.H.I.E.L.D. was established and recruited me."

The scene shifts, moving from the climax of the war to a gradual calm before finally ending. The S.H.I.E.L.D. logo then appears, followed by a series of images of early S.H.I.E.L.D. figures, including a young Peggy Carter whom Captain Rogers had just seen, and Zhuge Yuntian, Zhuge Cong's father.

"A new Hydra has emerged, like a beautiful parasite within S.H.I.E.L.D."

"For the past seventy years, Hydra has been instigating crises, riots, conflicts, and even wars from behind the scenes."

"When history unfolds contrary to expectations, we intervene to change its course."

The video also showed various historical events and major accidents from the past seventy years, and Hydra was involved in every single one of them.

"Let's take a nap together when we have time": My God, what did I just see? Hydra had already started infiltrating S.H.I.E.L.D. in its early days.

Fiji's Immortal: I originally thought that Hydra had infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D. little by little later, but it seems we were too naive.

Bitter Tea's Underpants: It's not that we're overthinking things, but who could have imagined that Hydra had been lurking in the early days of S.H.I.E.L.D.?

"Blooming Flowers and Wealth": So if that's the case, doesn't that mean there were Hydra members among the founding members of S.H.I.E.L.D. in its early days? And then those Hydra members used their status, power, and authority as founding members to secretly bring Hydra members into S.H.I.E.L.D. and then continuously promote them!

Clean and hygienic: S.H.I.E.L.D. could perhaps also be called Snake Shield, and Hydra has intervened in every major event over the years. Thinking about it this way, isn't Hydra like the guardian of history, wanting history to develop according to their expectations? Wow, that's terrifying.
