Just a corpse: Didn't you all notice? The establishment of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra was not in the future but in the past. The Crisis Curtain Organization's announcement was not like that. Was it a deliberate cover-up or was there another reason?

Totoro ex: Ah, my head is so itchy, I feel like my brain is growing, how come there's so much content all of a sudden?

At this time, the content released by Arnin Zola also sparked a huge wave of online excitement.

"Impossible, S.H.I.E.L.D. won't just let you go unpunished."

[Black Widow Vermouth spoke to the computer, but actually to Arnin Zola.]

"Accidents are always unavoidable."

[As Arnin Zola spoke, the content on the computer screen began to flash continuously, including an image of King that was now dead.]

"Hydra intends to create a chaotic world so that humanity will eventually be willing to sacrifice freedom for security."

"Once the purification process is complete, Hydra's new world order will be established."

At that moment, the computer screen displayed the helicopter carrier that King and Captain Rogers had seen at the bottom of S.H.I.E.L.D. earlier.

355: Gabriel: Are you Hydra, you idiot Nia?

[From Captain Rogers' perspective now, King's claim that it was for deterring and dealing with terrorists suggests that the true purpose of this helicopter carrier was probably not to curb crime, but rather as a powerful weapon for Hydra to intimidate the entire world.]

"We won, Captain Rogers."

[Arnin Zola spoke to Rogers, whose expression darkened under the combined influence of Zola's words and the displayed imagery.]

Black Widow Vermouth, standing to the side, looked utterly shocked. She hadn't expected that S.H.I.E.L.D. had been so unknowingly corrupted by Hydra, and had even become a weapon in Hydra's hands.

[Givya Hyakki sensed that the organization she served seemed to have collapsed and been sidelined.]

"Captain Rogers, your death, like your life, is utterly meaningless."

Arnin Zola dismissed Rogers's entire worth with utter disdain, prompting Rogers to angrily punch the computer monitor in front of him, shattering it to pieces.

But the next second, Arnin Zola's image reappeared on the computer screen next to him, and he continued speaking through the speakers.

"We were just talking about..."

However, Arnin Zola was interrupted by Rogers's angry tone before he could finish speaking.

"What's on this USB drive?"

[Arnin Zola wasn't annoyed by Rogers' interruption; instead, he directly told Captain Rogers.]

"Project Insight."

"It requires insight, so I wrote an algorithm."

"What algorithm? What is it used for?"

[The Black Widow, Vermouth, spoke up, asking a question.]

"The answer to your question is enough to captivate and enchant."

"But it's a pity, you're going to die, you won't be able to hear me."

Hearing Arnin Zola's words, Captain Rogers and his two companions realized something was amiss. Turning around, they saw the elevator doors they had arrived in were closing. Captain Rogers quickly threw his shield, attempting to stop the closing doors.

However, he was still a step too late. Captain Rogers' shield hit the thick protective layer outside the elevator and failed to stop the elevator door. Captain Rogers caught the returning shield.

[Black Widow Vermouth also took out her phone and said to Captain Rogers with a serious expression.]

"Rogers, missile detected, not far from us, at most 30 seconds left."

"We're doomed. There's no escaping now. How could Captain Rogers and the others make such a basic mistake? Didn't they already know that S.H.I.E.L.D. had a top-notch tracking system?"

Seeing Captain Rogers and his two companions imprisoned by Arnin Zola on the screen, with only 30 seconds left before the missiles were about to hit, Winette felt anxious for them.

"Aya, Winette, what's the rush? I bet Captain Rogers and the other two will escape unharmed."

Seeing Winette's hurried appearance, Gabriel spoke up. As a net-addicted girl who could surf at a high intensity for 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds a day, Gabriel knew a lot.

Therefore, in Gabriel's eyes, Captain Rogers and his two companions are the main characters of this scene. And while it's not impossible for the main characters to die, Gabriel is still certain that Rogers and his companions will not die.

"Hmph, hahaha, Gabriel, are you that confident?"

"Idiot Nia" let out a villainous laugh and said, "Hahaha."

"What, are you hoping for something to happen to Captain Rogers and the other two? Are you with Hydra?"

Gabriel looked at Satania listlessly and said, "I hadn't noticed before, but I found out after I got access to the internet."

Satania is a typical late-stage chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferer. The reason she's late-stage is that she's still like this even in high school, just like Rikka Takanashi, who often hangs out with her.

And if Gabriel isn't mistaken, Satania also joined a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) club called the Nap Club.

"Hahaha, what are Hydra? They're just a bunch of little Karas hiding in the corner. I, Lady Satania, will conquer the world openly and honestly."

"Okay, okay, take your time and keep trying."

"Who launched it?"

[Captain Rogers asked, and in fact, after asking, Captain Rogers also felt that the only possibility was S.H.I.E.L.D.]

"S.H.I.E.L.D."

[Black Widow Vermouth's answer was exactly what Captain Rogers was thinking.]

"I've been stalling for time, Captain Rogers."

"Accept your fate, Captain Rogers. This is better for you."

"We're all in the same boat, we don't have time."

[Arnin Zola spoke to Captain Rogers, while Black Widow Vermouth pulled out the USB drive. Sitting idly by and waiting to die wasn't their style, even in this situation where survival seemed impossible.]

"This way."

[Givia waved to Captain Rogers and Vermouth, who looked over and saw her lift a manhole cover, revealing a huge pit inside. It had probably been used to store something before, and now it was their only hope for survival.]

Ⅲ Righteousness and hegemony, clothing and so on, also three uncles

The missiles struck precisely and on time. Captain Rogers and his two companions jumped down, with Rogers shielding the two women and blocking most of the damage.

This also demonstrated once again the power of Rogers' shield; the massive impact, along with huge pieces of debris from buildings destroyed by the shockwave, hurtled towards Captain Rogers and his two companions.

Captain Rogers gritted his teeth and raised his shield to block. If it weren't for the vibranium material used to make the shield, the three of them might have perished today.

After a long while, Captain Rogers, having ceased feeling any further attacks from above, painstakingly pushed aside the massive boulder that had been covering them. The aftermath of the missile attack was largely thanks to this boulder, which was large enough to hold it in place.

Otherwise, his shield alone wouldn't have been enough to protect the three of them. Even so, Black Widow Vermouth and Gylvia were knocked unconscious by the missile attack, but this was the best possible outcome.

Chapter 356: Kaguya Shinomiya: The Shinomiya family is gone in the future?!

Captain Rogers gritted his teeth and hoisted Black Widow Bellmouth and Gylvia out of the pit, carrying them both on his back.

The underground base was no longer what it had been when the three of them first entered. It had been reduced to ruins by the missile attack launched by S.H.I.E.L.D. Building materials scattered everywhere, along with flames from the explosion. The already cramped underground base should have been filled with smoky, choking smoke, turning the confined space into a gas chamber.

However, because the missile was so powerful, it turned the underground base into an open-air one. So, although the burning and explosion created thick smoke, the open environment meant there wasn't much of a problem.

As Captain Rogers carried the two men out, he looked up and saw several huge searchlights shining in all directions, clearly from S.H.I.E.L.D. to confirm whether the three of them had indeed been killed by the missile.

Captain Rogers hurriedly retreated, only to discover that the massive searchlights were shining from the Quinjet fighter jets, along with numerous smaller tactical flashlights.

The assault team, led by Nobuyuki Crossbones, thoroughly searched every corner, but found nothing. Just as they were wondering whether Captain Rogers and his two companions had been blown to pieces or had escaped, Nobuyuki Crossbones discovered a footprint in a corner built of boulders. Judging by its size, it belonged to Captain Rogers. Looking around, Nobuyuki Crossbones concluded that Captain Rogers and his companions must have died from the missile attack.

"Let's recall everyone."

[The order was given by the man with crossed bones.]

"Um...didn't this guy ever think about why there were Captain Rogers' footprints there?"

As Conan Edogawa watched Nobuyuki Sugo hastily order the team to retreat, he thought to himself, "If he were leading the search and found these footprints, would Conan Edogawa simply conclude that Rogers' three opponents didn't perish in the missile attack?"

The dust on the boulder was clearly produced after the missile attack, while the footprints should have been fresh. If they were previous footprints, the dust should be on top of them, or rather, there was no dust and probably no footprints at all.

For some reason, Conan Edogawa still believes that Rogers and his two companions have perished in the missile attack.

Inside Shinomiya Kiko's mansion, Shinomiya Kiko, who had gotten up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, went to the large kitchen, took out some ice water from the refrigerator, and prepared to drink a sip before going back to bed.

Logically speaking, after the downfall of the Shinomiya family, Shinomiya Hiromitsu shouldn't be living in such a super luxurious villa. However, Shinomiya Hiromitsu's current status is far from simple. Even without the Shinomiya family's support, he could afford such a mansion. In fact, even if the Shinomiya family were still around, it wouldn't hold much appeal for him anymore. The Hydra organization would be the best choice, since seizing the headship of the Shinomiya family would be incredibly easy for him now.

[They could simply send a top Hydra assassin to quietly eliminate the other contenders, without anyone noticing.]

"Pfft, cough cough cough."

When Shinomiya Gan'an saw the content revealed on the light screen, she wondered if the Shinomiya family would be wiped out in the future!

This almost sent that old fellow Shinomiya Gan'an to his death.

"How could my great Shinomiya family just disappear like that? Could it be that the other seven families joined forces against our Shinomiya family?"

Shinomiya Yan'an thought to himself that while it was possible for the seven major families to join forces and eliminate the Shinomiya family, the chances were too slim. This would serve as a warning to the other surviving members of the seven major families, because if they could join forces to eliminate the Shinomiya family today, they would have another chance to join forces to eliminate "himself" next time. Therefore, Shinomiya Yan'an felt that while the possibility existed, it was not high.

"The Shinomiya family is gone?!"

Kaguya Shinomiya felt no sadness at the loss of the Shinomiya family; instead, she felt a joy at her future liberation, knowing that the Shinomiya family's demise meant she could regain her freedom.

"That Kaguya, well, my condolences. No, there's no need to dwell on it; it's a matter for the future."

Miyuki Shirogane comforted Kaguya Shinomiya. Miyuki was unaware of the family dynamics within Kaguya's household, and seeing Kaguya's stunned expression upon hearing of the family's demise, he assumed she was simply having difficulty accepting the situation.
