Maria Hill bit her lip and said, "I've come here to complete a mission! I'm willing to pay any price for it."
She suddenly didn't want to act anymore. She had prepared before coming, but found that it wouldn't work for Adam, so she simply spoke her mind.
After hearing this, Adam said, "Oh? Anything is possible?"
Maria Hill said calmly, "That's right, anything is fine, I can't fail for my dream!"
Adam thought of Natasha after hearing this. He sighed and said, "You female agents are really unpredictable."
Maria Hill heard that Adam seemed to be relenting. She smiled slightly and said, "If we are figured out, then it means we will face death."
Adam nodded and said, "Yeah, you could die if you're not careful. Haha, I admire you for still daring to do this job knowing how dangerous it is. Anyway, what question does Nick Fury want me to ask you?"
Maria Hill didn't say anything like "Oh, you agreed?" like most girls would. Instead, she smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. You really are soft-hearted."
Adam gave a wry smile and said, "Alright, ask me before I change my mind."
Maria Hill didn't immediately ask what she wanted, but instead asked very seriously, "After I ask what I want, will we still be friends?"
Adam laughed and said, "I told you last time that we are already friends, and I don't like to break ties with friends."
Maria Hill patted her chest and said, "Phew, thank goodness. I thought we wouldn't be able to be friends anymore."
Adam chuckled upon seeing this and said, "Are you trying to tempt me?"
Maria Hill smiled slightly and said, "Yes, I just wanted to seduce you and see what it's like to be the kind of man that so many women fall for."
After hearing this, Adam said, "Alright, stop joking around and ask already. I need to sleep."
Maria Hill replied very seriously, "I'm not joking, I really want to know what you taste like, hehe. Okay, okay, don't be angry. You get angry just for telling the truth? Are you even a man?"
Adam, somewhat embarrassed by Maria Hill's actions, said, "Alright, go ahead and ask. I have things to do tomorrow."
Maria Hill knew she couldn't go any further, so she composed herself and said, "Well then, I'll start asking. Where is that green giant now? Did you destroy him?"
Upon hearing this, Adam asked, "Do you know anything about this green giant?"
Maria Hill was taken aback and said, "All I know is that due to a mistake in the experiment, a professor was hit by gamma rays and turned into this giant. I don't know anything else. What's wrong?"
After hearing this, Adam replied, "I suspect this was a deliberate incident because I spoke with Dr. Bruce Banner, who said that the gamma-ray emitter had been working perfectly before without any malfunctions, but it malfunctioned that day and started up on its own without anyone starting it."
After hearing this, Maria Hill said, "So, the Hulk, Dr. Bruce Banner, is with you?"
Adam nodded and said, "That's right, he is indeed here. I originally thought that the military had conducted human experiments to create this Hulk, but the ambassador found out from his conversation with the doctor that this was not the case. However, based on the military's actions today and some of Nick Fury's actions, I feel that this matter is not so simple."
After hearing this, Maria Hill asked, "What are you going to do now?"
Adam smiled slightly and said, "What to do? It's definitely to help Dr. Bruce Banner. If he's captured by the military or your S.H.I.E.L.D., you'll definitely want to obtain the Hulk's power for experiments. Not only will Dr. Banner's life be in danger, but you might also unleash a dozen or twenty uncontrollable Hulks, making a complete mess of the Earth. I don't have the energy to fight so many Hulks; just one today exhausted me." Adam said a lot, half-jokingly and half-truthfully.
After hearing this, Maria Hill said, "Alright, I will tell the director the truth. By the way, there are a few other things I need you to tell me."
Adam shrugged and said, "Go ahead and ask. Ask whatever questions you have. If we meet again, it will only be a friendly conversation. I won't answer any more questions about these things."
Maria Hill smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, this is the only time I've done this. The director can't possibly make me do this every time. What I want to ask is, Frank Casu, do you know where he is? Because Director Nick was very fond of him and wanted him to join S.H.I.E.L.D., but he disappeared after his wife was killed. Although he appeared once afterward, he has really disappeared since that day, and we have no way to find him."
After hearing this, Adam said, "I roughly know where he is, but since we are friends, I can't tell you where he is. However, I'm sure he will come back to take revenge on those who harmed him."

Chapter Ninety-Two: Morning
Ps:
Thanks for your support. These are transitional chapters, mainly to explain where the Hulk is. After all, we won't see the Hulk again for another two years. Yeah, that's all!
Nick Fury sends Maria Hill to use her charm to extract information from Adam. Maria Hill is determined to complete the mission, even at a cost, for the sake of her dream. However, when she meets Adam, she finds that he truly considers her a friend. Therefore, she directly states her purpose and lets Adam decide for himself whether or not to tell her the information.
Adam, upon hearing Maria Hill's words, thought she was a good friend and agreed to answer a few questions. He then told Maria Hill that he suspected the Hulk incident was a man-made accident and asked her to investigate it when she got back. Maria Hill remembered these things and secretly decided to investigate on her own when she got back to see what Nick Fury was hiding from her. Then she asked Nick Fury the last question he had made sure she knew—the whereabouts of Frank Castle.
Although Adam had little contact with Frank Caesar, he knew from those brief encounters that Frank Caesar was a sentimental person. Therefore, he did not tell Maria Hill Frank Caesar's whereabouts, but instead said that Frank Caesar would return and take revenge on all those who had harmed him.
Although Maria Hill did not get an answer, she was already satisfied, so she stopped asking for more information and decided to ask about Natasha instead.
"Finally, let me ask you some personal questions. What's going on between you and Natasha? She even had a fight with Director Nick over you this time."
Adam sighed after hearing this and said, "Don't ask about this anymore, Maria. Natasha and I have nothing left, and there can never be anything left."
Although Adam did have feelings for Natasha, it was the Natasha from before—no, it should be Natalie. Adam's love was given to Natalie and Christine; his feelings for Natasha were complicated and couldn't be easily explained. After all, only those who have experienced first love can truly understand its taste.
When Maria Hill saw this, she realized that Adam hadn't forgotten Natasha as she had said. While happy for her best friend, she also felt a pang of sadness for no apparent reason. She still felt that the movie star Christine wasn't the problem; the real enemy was her best friend.
However, as she thought about it, she was suddenly surprised and thought: 'Could it be that I have really fallen in love with Adam? How could that be? We have only met a few times. It must be because of Natasha's influence.' After deceiving herself like this, she managed to suppress the strange feeling that was surging in her heart.
Adam noticed that Maria Hill seemed lost in thought. He asked, "What's wrong, Maria? Is there something else? If so, ask me today."
Maria Hill snapped out of her reverie, shook her head, and said, "No, I was just lost in thought. Well, since you need to rest, I won't bother you any longer. I'll head back now."
Adam checked the time and realized it was quite late. He said, "You should stay here tonight. It's late, and even though you're very skilled, there's still some danger involved."
Maria Hill smiled alluringly. "Are you asking for payment? I can pay any price."
Adam said speechlessly, "Alright, Maria, you know that's not what I meant. Forget it, I have plenty of empty rooms here. Let's stay and rest today, and go back tomorrow. Let him worry himself to death."
Maria Hill feigned disappointment and said, "Ah. So it wasn't for payment after all. I got excited for nothing. Well, since it was Adam who asked for it, I'll stay."
Adam, too lazy to pay attention to Maria Hill's words, shrugged and said, "Come on, I'll take you there." He then led Maria Hill to the front of the guest room.
Good night, Maria, sweet dreams.
Maria Hill smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, I will. Goodbye, Adam." After saying that, she tiptoed and gently kissed Adam on the lips before turning and walking into the room.
In fact, Adam was fully capable of dodging Maria's sneak attack, but he didn't. It wasn't that Adam was lecherous, but simply that he didn't want to hurt Maria Hill's pride. After all, for a girl, doing this already took a lot of courage, and if he had dodged at that moment, it would have definitely hurt Maria Hill's feelings.
Adam knew he couldn't give Maria Hill a promise, and Maria Hill knew it too, but she did it anyway, not because Maria Hill loved Adam so much, but simply because she had an impulse that day.
Adam sighed softly, turned and left to go back to his room to sleep.
The next day
Adam got up very early, and when he came out after washing up, Athena appeared and said, "Master, Miss Maria Hill has already left."
Adam was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and said, "Oh, that's quite early."
Athena explained, "It was Nick Fury who called, probably to check if Maria Hill was staying here overnight. Ugh, what an annoying person."
Adam shrugged and said, "That's why I dislike him. Let's not talk about him so early in the morning, lest it ruin our mood. By the way, where's the Doctor?"
After hearing this, Athena said, "The Doctor has already gotten up. He didn't sleep very well last night and is already waiting for the master to come out in the living room. I have already informed him."
Adam nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be right there." He then put on jeans and a plaid shirt and left the room.
When Adam entered the living room, Dr. Bruce Banner was sitting on the sofa, but he seemed anxious. Adam knew that Dr. Banner was worried about his girlfriend and felt guilty for accidentally injuring her.
Adam walked over and said, "Good morning, Doctor. How did you sleep last night?"
After hearing this, Bruce Banner said, "It's alright, but I'm a little worried about Betty about when we're leaving."
After hearing this, Adam laughed and said, "Don't worry, Doctor, I said I would take you there, and I definitely will. I'll have Athena check which hospital Ms. Betty Ross is in right now."
Bruce Banner replied, "I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Adam shook his head and said, "No, that's not true. Since I said I would help, I will definitely help to the end. Athena, is there any result?"
Athena replied, "The results are in, Master. Ms. Betty Ross is in a hospital near Culver University in Virginia. There appear to be sentries lying in ambush around the hospital."
After hearing this, Adam said, "Heh, it seems they want to lure you in. So, are you still going?"
Bruce Banner nodded and said, "Yes, I have to go see Betty, otherwise I'll be a little worried."
Adam shrugged and said, "Alright, I'll take you there. This little ambush is nothing to me. I'll get you there without you even noticing."
Bruce Banner said gratefully, "Thank you, Adam. I don't know what I would do without you."
After hearing this, Adam said, "It's nothing, aren't we already friends?"
Bruce Banner was over thirty years old, while Adam was only twenty-two. But when Bruce Banner heard Adam say that they were friends, he was still moved, because there were very few people who would help him in such a situation.
Bruce Banner said, "Yes, we are friends."
Adam smiled and said, "Alright, Doctor, let's have breakfast first, and then we'll set off. I bet you can't wait."
Bruce Banner nodded slightly and said, "Sorry, I was in such a hurry I forgot you haven't had breakfast yet."
Adam said, "Hehe, it's nothing. But I heard from Athena that you haven't had breakfast either. Let's eat something together. Don't worry, I'll be quick."
Bruce Banner nodded slightly in agreement.
A dozen minutes later, Adam and Bruce Banner finished breakfast. Adam took a watch-like device out of his pocket and handed it to Bruce Banner, saying, "Take this watch for now. It can display your heart rate. If it exceeds a set frequency, it will alert you. This way, you can control your emotions through deep breathing, which may delay the transformation."
Bruce Banner replied, "Thank you, Adam, for going to so much trouble for me."
Adam laughed, "Hehe, no, it's nothing. We've already said we're friends, so don't be so polite. Hehe, I like making friends. Well, enough said, let's go. It might get a bit cold later, hang in there!" After saying that, he left the living room with Dr. Bruce Banner, put on his battle suit, and took off, flying towards Culver University in Virginia.
Chapter Ninety-Three General Ross
Adam noticed that Dr. Bruce Banner was quite anxious about his girlfriend, so he asked Athena to investigate her whereabouts. They discovered that Betty Ross had been placed in a hospital near Culver University in Virginia, and that there seemed to be an ambush around the hospital, with someone setting a trap for Bruce Banner.
Adam told Bruce Banner about the situation, but Bruce Banner was not afraid and was only thinking about meeting his girlfriend as soon as possible. Therefore, Adam decided to go all the way to help Dr. Bruce Banner meet his girlfriend. After all, he had already gotten involved in this matter and could not give up halfway. So he took Bruce Banner and flew directly to Virginia.
In a hospital near Culver University in Virginia, General Ross was sitting in an office having a video call with Nick Fury.
General Ross, after hearing Nick Fury's words, said, "So, Bruce Banner and Adam Stark are together?"
Nick Fury nodded and said, "That's right, that's the information I received. What are you going to do? Adam Stark is a bit difficult to deal with, not to mention he has another identity, so we can't use force."
After hearing this, General Ross said, "Hehe, don't worry. I knew Bruce Banner would definitely come to this hospital. I know him. After he arrives, we'll find a way to force the Hulk out. You know the Hulk's situation. He has no self-awareness and attacks anyone he sees. So we can let him fight the Hulk, and when they are both exhausted, we'll capture the two of them!"
Nick Fury was taken aback and said, "You actually want to capture Adam Stark? You've got some nerve. Don't you know the influence of Stark Industries in America? Or do you think you can bully his kids just because Howard Stark is dead?"
General Ross looked excited and said, "As long as we can unlock the secrets of their bodies, we will have the most powerful army in the world, and the whole world will belong to America. Stark Industries is nothing to me!"
Nick Fury, after hearing this, said, "I'm sorry, I won't get involved in this matter. And I still want to remind you not to underestimate Adam Stark. He's not just a scientist who only knows how to do research; he's a superhero with superhuman strength. Don't let him get caught off guard."
General Ross scoffed, "Superheroes? Hmph, at least they're just clowns. Since S.H.I.E.L.D. is scared, then you shouldn't interfere this time. I can handle it all by myself. Heh, you might as well rename your S.H.I.E.L.D. to Turtle Squatting Agency!"
Nick Fury frowned and said, "Say what you will, I will not be an enemy of Howard Stark's son. After all, Howard Stark is one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D., and his influence here is considerable. We, S.H.I.E.L.D., are withdrawing from this matter!" He then hung up the phone. He then called Maria Hill in.
