As lunch break approached, another reporter hurried into the president's office. The kid was sweating profusely, and his plaid shirt was soaked with sweat. He looked like he had just been fished out of the water.

"Slow down, David." Richard looked him up and down, "Did you come back from swimming in the Hudson River? Why do you look like this?"

David Maltz was panting, but his face was rosy and he seemed very excited. Before he formally spoke, he couldn't help but praise: "You are simply a genius! Boss!"

Richard nodded and accepted the compliment calmly: "Yes, I know. Tell me what it is."

David froze for a moment. Boss, let me just give you a few compliments. You accepted it so calmly and directly. Are you a little bit shameless?

But of course he didn't dare to say this, so he thought about it and let it go. He got straight to the point: "Boss, do you remember that you asked us to investigate the cause of the monster commotion last night? You said that we could go to the State University of New York and find an interview with a professor named Samuel Stern. My partner has already been there. And guess what?"

Richard thought for a while: "Professor Stern has disappeared?"

David clapped his hands hard: "Boss, how do you know? Yes, no one has seen Professor Stern since yesterday. He is neither at home nor at school, and his mobile phone has been turned off, and there is no reply to emails. . But there is news that there seemed to be an accident in his laboratory before. Other professors and students said they heard very loud noises over there. Now his laboratory has been taken over by the military, and there is a troop They came over to seal off the area and cleaned the scene overnight. There were military guards outside the blockade, and even school personnel were not allowed to enter."

Of course Richard had expected this. After the Abomination incident came out, the military immediately blocked all news. After all, technically speaking, Abomination was still an active-duty officer before his transformation. The serum he was injected with came from the Hulk. If traced back to the source, it was created by the military in a laboratory. thing. In the final analysis, the hateful rampage is completely the military's fault. If the responsibility is traced, a large number of relevant high-level officials may not be able to escape. So of course they had to block the news, lower their heads and wait for the news to pass.

At this moment, other news media are still running into dead ends like headless chickens. Planet Daily immediately seized on the correct clues. To be honest, Richard knew the ins and outs of the incident even before it happened. It was clearly explained to him in the movie "The Incredible Hulk". But news published in newspapers requires evidence. When the time comes, the source of the news cannot just say that he saw it in a movie, right?

"Then what?" Richard asked, "It must not have been just a blockade that blocked you back, right?"

David patted his chest proudly: "Of course, if this kind of thing can stop me, then I don't have to continue to hang out at the Daily Planet. We tried a little trick, but in the end we got into Stern." I went to the doctor's laboratory. It was a mess inside, and it felt like a bunch of bulls were running over it over and over again. Oh, it's hard to say. I took some photos, you can take a look."

He handed the photo to Richard. Richard glanced quickly and found that David's description was indeed not exaggerated at all, and was even slightly different from the actual situation. The scene in the photo was not just a mess, it was a complete mess. The experimental bench was badly damaged, and a recliner was torn into countless pieces by something unknown. Judging from the marks, it seemed that some liquid had been spilled all over the room. There were traces of liquid on the tables, cabinets and the floor.

“Here’s the scariest part,” David pointed to one of the photos. “Look at this.”

Richard knew what he wanted to say. It was a footprint, a footprint that was deeply imprinted into the metal bottom plate. Judging from the exaggerated size, it could not be left by humans.

"This is evidence, the most sufficient evidence!" David said excitedly, "Isn't it obvious? These are the traces left by the monster in New York City! There is a high probability that the monster was born Since this laboratory, and the military rushed to seal the scene in such a hurry to eliminate evidence! It must be so, Professor Samuel Stern has been conducting illegal experiments for the military before, and they are in this laboratory He created that monster and caused last night's disaster, so now Dr. Stern is missing! This way everything is connected!"

The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he was spitting. As a result, Richard looked at it twice and threw the photo back to him.

Richard shook his head: "That's not enough. What you said is just a hypothesis. To prove all this, more sufficient evidence is needed."

"I'm 100% sure that this is the truth, boss."

Haha, I am still 100% sure that this is far from the truth. Don’t ask me how I know, because I’ve seen the movie.

First of all, the military had never contacted Samuel Stern before. The person who contacted him was Bruce Banner, also known as the Hulk. The reason why Banner came to him was to find a way to cure Hulk. As for the birth of Abomination, it was completely unplanned by anyone and it was a complete accident.

"General Thaddeus Ross," Richard asked instead, "I remember arranging for you to check on that general? How about it?"

"My partner Hodge is in charge over there." David said, "Hodge has gone to see Ross, but the old guy has refused to be interviewed. But don't worry, boss, that guy Hodge is very smart, he always You can catch the opportunity."

After a pause, he asked curiously: "But why, boss? I mean, how did you know that Ross had a problem?"

"I just know." Richard snorted, "I started from scratch, and in just a few years, I made the newspaper develop to what it is today. Do you really think I only rely on my face?"

David was speechless for a while.

No, no, I think you may have a thick skin. It seems that you are indeed a thick-skinned person. There is nothing wrong with it.

Thaddeus Ross was the leader of the Hulk capture team in the movie, and before that, the Hulk was originally the product of the experiments he was responsible for. This guy is a typical unlikable character in movies. Ninety percent of the audience will have the urge to pull this old man out of the TV and give him a good beating.

I watched "The Incredible Hulk 2" before, where General Ross made such a big mistake, and actually created a monster like Abomination to make a big fuss in the center of New York City. In the end, they had to rely on the power of the Hulk who was originally hunted by them to calm it down. .Even Hulk was let go in the end.

When he was watching the movie, Richard thought about it. General Ross was so tough that he almost stabbed the sky. No matter how tough he was backstage, he probably wouldn't be able to protect him, right?

After a few years, I looked back and found that it was more than just P. When he appeared again in Captain America 3, he became the Secretary of State, and his official career was soaring.
