Chapter 92 Consortium X and the Winter Soldier

"Are you also...?" Crossbones looked at Chen Ye in surprise.

Chen Ye smiled slightly, as if he could see through Crossbones' thoughts.

You little brat, you must be scared by his aura.

He was secretly proud in his heart, but did not show it on his face.

Let this Crossbones test him in front of him, and also want to give him a warning.

Chen Ye gently pushed open the door of the restaurant and made a gesture to invite Crossbones to come in.

His voice was gentle and polite, "Please, we can't just stand here and talk all the time."

Then he turned and walked into the restaurant.

Crossbones looked at Chen Ye's back and couldn't help feeling a little hesitant.

However, he quickly suppressed his composure and followed in.

Inside the restaurant, the lighting is soft and the atmosphere is peaceful.

Chen Ye looked straight at Crossbones, his voice calm and firm: "Tell me why you are here, Mr. Crossbones. You Hydra people would not come to me for no reason, right?" There was a sense of confidence in his words, as if everything was under control.

Crossbones looked at Chen Ye with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He originally thought that the meeting would be more complicated and would require some courtesy and probing, but Chen Ye's directness caught him off guard.

However, this kind of direct conversation is exactly what Crossbones likes. He appreciates men with courage and those who can face the exchange of interests frankly.

Crossbones adjusted his sitting position and said seriously, "I am indeed here on behalf of Director Pierce to invite you to join Hydra. You should know that Hydra is an organization with great power and resources."

Chen Ye nodded slightly. He knew that Hydra did have strength and influence that could not be underestimated.

Chen Ye did not refuse immediately, but said calmly: "What benefits you can bring to me is what I care about most. Please let me know your sincerity first."

Although Chen Ye had no intention of joining any organization, he was very curious about what Hydra could provide him.

Crossbones took a deep breath and began to explain their proposal in detail: "First, we can provide you with financial support, whether it is your personal life or the construction of public facilities in Hell's Kitchen, you can get funding from Hydra. Secondly, the schools and hospitals in Hell's Kitchen really need improvement. We can provide you with the necessary resources and technical support to make them brand new."

Hearing this, Chen Ye couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

He really didn't need the money, but the public facilities in Hell's Kitchen were indeed a thorn in his heart.

If Hydra could help improve those conditions, it would undoubtedly be a good thing for him.

However, Chen Ye did not agree immediately, but continued to ask: "Then, what price do I need to pay?"

Crossbones replied solemnly: "Join us and become a member of Hydra. When necessary, we need you to help us."

Hearing this, Chen Ye refused without hesitation: "I refuse."

Crossbones was somewhat surprised to hear this answer.

He stood up and his tone became serious: "You have to think clearly, Chen Ye. You already know our identities. If you reject us, you will face the pursuit of Hydra all over the world."

However, Chen Ye was not shaken by the threats.

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Crossbones. Just because I can't join you doesn't mean we can't work together."

Crossbones was a little surprised by Chen Ye's words.

He didn't expect Chen Ye to make such a suggestion, but he soon realized that this might be a better option.

So he sat down again, ready to listen to how Chen Ye would cooperate.

Chen Ye continued, "I guess you investigated me before you came here. Don't you want a transformation device like Kamen Rider?"

"You mean you want to give it to us?" Crossbones' eyes lit up when he heard that. If he could transform into Kamen Rider, Crossbones estimated that he would not be afraid of anyone.

Chen Ye shook his head: "Not at the moment, because I only have one set."

When Crossbones heard this, he was immediately furious.

He thought Chen Ye was playing a trick on him. He only had one set of tricks and he was still showing it to him. Wasn't he just trying to whet his appetite?

"Don't worry. Although I can't give you my set, the organization behind me will give me a few sets in a while. Then I can give one or two sets to Hydra."

Chen Ye decided to create a fictional organization.

He knew very well that the secret of the system could not be leaked to the outside world, and having a powerful organization behind it could not only divert Hydra's attention and make Hydra no longer target Chen Ye, but Hell's Kitchen.

After listening to Chen Ye's words, Crossbones thought to himself that there was indeed a powerful organization behind Chen Ye, and Chen Ye's status in this organization was not low, otherwise he would not be able to get several powerful transformation belts like this one, and he could make the decision himself.

"I wonder if you could introduce me to the organization behind you. I wonder what the name of this organization is," Crossbones asked tentatively.

Chen Ye was stunned when he heard Crossbones' question. He just made up the organization randomly, so how could he know its name?

After thinking for a while, he said, "The organization behind me is called Consortium X. They are all a group of scientists who don't care about worldly affairs, so I usually come forward to purchase the necessary supplies on their behalf."

Crossbones nodded after listening and silently memorized the organization Consortium X.

If they can find Consortium X, they can also strive to become their agent. After all, Hydra has much more advantages than Chen Ye.

"Then I'll take my leave first. If you get a transformer, remember to contact me. Here's my phone number." Crossbones handed over a business card and left in a hurry.

"No, please help me renovate the hospital first," Chen Ye said as he watched Crossbones leave in a hurry.

. . . . . . .

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

Crossbones hurried into Director Pierce's office and reported in detail what Chen Ye had told him with a serious face.

He described in detail the Consortium X mentioned by Chen Ye and the high-tech power they possessed, especially the information about Kamen Rider, which made Director Pierce's eyes light up.

Director Pierce sat behind his desk, tapping his fingers lightly on the surface of the table, as if he was thinking about some important decision.

He took a deep breath and said slowly: "So the force behind Chen Ye is called Consortium X." His voice was full of seriousness and depth.

Director Pierce was very shocked that this Consortium X was so mysterious and possessed such high-tech power.

He secretly decided in his heart that he must take control of the power of Consortium X. In this way, Hydra's power will become even stronger, and it may even surpass all hostile forces.

Suddenly, Director Pierce opened his eyes and looked at Crossbones with a sharp gaze: "Chen Ye already knows the identity of our Hydra, right?" There was an unquestionable firmness in his voice.

Crossbones nodded, a look of resignation on his face.

He knew that Chen Ye already knew about the existence of Hydra, which was undoubtedly a huge threat to them.

Director Pierce smiled slightly, with a sly smile on his face: "Since he won't join us, let's send our Winter Soldier."

There was confidence and determination in his voice.

However, Crossbones frowned: "The Winter Soldier may not be Chen Ye's opponent."

There was a hint of worry and uneasiness in his words. After all, he himself had suffered at the hands of Chen Ye, and he knew how powerful Chen Ye was.

If the Winter Soldier can't beat him, then he definitely can't beat Chen Ye.

Director Pierce looked at Crossbones' frown and smiled slightly: "Who said I would send the Winter Soldier to kill Chen Ye? Chen Ye attaches great importance to friends and family. Just send the Winter Soldier to capture Kingpin's family for me."

There was something cunning and sinister in his voice.

After listening to what Chief Pierce said, Crossbones suddenly realized.

He understood Director Pierce's intention, which was to use the Kingpin family to threaten Chen Ye and make him hand over the transformation device and the contact information of the forces behind it. In this way, they can control the power of Consortium X and further enhance the strength of Hydra.

Chief Pierce watched as Crossbones understood his intentions and nodded with satisfaction.

He reminded again: "You continue to contact Chen Ye, and don't let anyone know that we kidnapped Jin Bing. Do it cleanly." His voice was full of seriousness and warning.

After hearing this, Crossbones suddenly realized what was going on and went out to carry out the order.
