"Natasha, don't even think about running away. All your little things have been taken away." Seemingly noticing Natasha's gaze, Pierce smiled calmly and said to her.
Natasha looked at Minister Pierce, her face bearing her usual friendly and charming smile: "Minister Pierce, why did you arrest me? I heard from the agents who arrested me that they had already captured Pietro, Peter, Gwen, and Harry."
"If you hadn't said that, would you have willingly let yourself be captured? You clever little Black Widow." Pierce chuckled, his words dripping with mockery towards Natasha.
He knew the Black Widow's methods all too well. With her beauty and endless schemes, Natasha always managed to obtain the intelligence she wanted from the enemy, and sometimes even infiltrating enemy territory was part of her strategy.
Therefore, when the agents were arresting Natasha, Pierce allowed them to reveal that they had arrested Pietro and his group. Sure enough, Natasha was successfully captured.
However, once you get here, escaping is not such a simple matter.
Hearing Pierce's words, Natasha's faint smile finally disappeared, replaced by a serious question: "Pierce, what exactly do you want to do by arresting so many people?"
Pierce didn't notice that Natasha's bound hands were slowly and laboriously moving upwards, above which lay her long, flowing burgundy curls!
Of course, even if Pierce noticed, he wouldn't care, because Natasha didn't have any decorative items on her head.
"See the potion next to you?" Pierce looked at a spot next to Natasha and pressed a button on his hand.
Natasha followed Pierce's gaze and noticed that the mechanical device beside her was slightly deforming, revealing a syringe filled with liquid.
“Once you become one of us at Hydra, this liquid will be injected into your body, increasing your strength, speed, and reflexes. I know you must envy Peter and the others' ever-growing abilities.” Pierce leaned back in his chair, a relaxed expression on his face. “You’ve got the information you wanted, so go and receive your reward.”
With that, Pierce pressed another button beside him and said to the person on the other end of the microphone, "Start the machine."
At this moment, the way he looked at Natasha revealed an eerie warmth: "When you wake up again, you will be one of us. Long live Hydra."
Natasha's pupils contracted slightly, and fear unconsciously showed in her eyes.
It really was Hydra!
Moreover, is this an attempt to brainwash her?
"Buzz".
The soft whirring of the machinery sounded like a death knell.
Pierce watched with a smile as Natasha struggled violently.
He saw Natasha tilt her head back slightly in fear, trying to avoid the curved steel beam that was turning towards her.
But Pierce only felt that she was struggling to her death, because her body was completely fixed to the steel frame, where could she hide?
But he didn't notice that as Natasha tilted her head back, her hair got a few centimeters closer to her fingers!
On both sides of the steel device, there was an additional bloodstain, left by Natasha as she moved her arms upward during her struggle.
"If this potion is so effective, why did you capture us? Why didn't you just use your own people?" Natasha looked at the approaching curved steel structure, the veins on her neck bulging slightly.
At this moment, her fingers were finally completely hidden under her hair!
As Natasha struggled, her fingers moved quickly through her hair, and in the next moment, Natasha finally found the few strands of hair she was looking for.
If someone were to look closely, they would notice that these few strands of hair are almost twice as thick as normal hair, and it seems that something else is wrapped around them!
Natasha's fingers delicately moved through her hair, and the next moment, a thin, wine-red strand appeared between her fingers.
Then, Natasha gently touched the steel frame beside her with her fingers and successfully found a piece of steel protruding outward.
However, while she was making those movements, Natasha's expression remained unchanged, still showing that look of fear.
“A few years ago, the head of an organization researching the so-called Extremis virus was looking for investors everywhere, but unfortunately, no one was willing to invest in him because his experimental results were too unstable. However, we later funded him and entrusted Ivan, Dr. Kurt, and Dr. Stern to him.” Pierce smiled slightly as he looked at the arc of steel that had reached above Natasha’s head. “After more than half a year of research, they developed a serum that was better than the original Extremis virus. However, this serum has one drawback: it is too selective. It requires not only the recipient’s physical condition but also a high degree of compatibility. But one thing is certain: the better the original recipient’s physical condition, the stronger its performance. Pietro and Peter should be fine, but as for you, Tony, Potts, and that silly boy’s Gwen, I don’t know.”
“Dr. Stern?” Natasha’s eyes revealed a look of horror, and this look of horror was not feigned at all.
Everyone initially thought that Dr. Stern had been killed by Abomination, and that his body had even been burned in the fire. But unexpectedly, Dr. Stern was kidnapped by Hydra!
Even in her shock, Natasha didn't stop what she was doing. The fine threads wrapped around her fingers had already slipped through the gaps in the ropes binding her wrists and were slowly threading through the gaps in the steel beside her!
