"What about the Cosmic Cube?" Shen He asked back, "What about the other people controlled by Loki? Thor, the mortal world has its own laws. If he continues to refuse to give in, we can't keep him for too long."
"That's right." Tony immediately understood what Shen He meant. "In just these two days, Loki has killed more than eighty agents and twenty civilians. Now the country here asks us to hand him over."
"He, he..." Thor, the invincible god of thunder, was completely speechless.
Because he was not right at all. It was a fait accompli that his brother, Loki, committed unforgivable crimes on Earth.
"Thor." Shen He stood up and looked at Thor. "I understand your feelings for your brother, and I also understand that he is just a pawn of the man behind the scenes. However, we have no right to forgive his crimes on behalf of all mankind. People's anger is constantly accumulating... You have to be prepared. We can't keep him for too long."
This is also the truth.
If the US regime forcibly follows the law, Chaldea is not right to detain Loki.
After all, they can only be regarded as a civilian organization now.
"Loki...will be judged by Asgard." Thor finally clenched his fists.
Shen He was not surprised by Thor's decision.
This is also the characteristic of the entire Marvel-style hero. Even Captain America, who is known as a "pure hero", can break the law for Bucky and to protect the personal freedom of heroes.
So neither Tony nor Steve said anything about Thor's decision.
They are not children.
"In this case, there is only one way." Shen He gently uttered a few words, "Diplomatic immunity."
Even in modern society where everyone is equal before the law, inequality can still be seen everywhere. Ordinary people break the law in other countries. If there is no extradition treaty, they will naturally be punished according to the laws of other countries. However, some special people enjoy diplomatic immunity, such as diplomats or local representatives of state agencies.
If Thor proposes diplomatic immunity negotiations as the crown prince of Asgard, it is also in line with legal regulations.
After understanding what Shen He meant, Thor agreed without much consideration.
His brain circuit is relatively simple. Shen He has helped him a lot, so he also trusts Shen He.
"Is there no way for Asgard to send a diplomatic team here?" Shen He asked.
"The Rainbow Bridge has not been repaired yet." Thor shook his head, and there was also a hint of embarrassment. "Just sending me here has exhausted the dark energy accumulated by my father, and I must find Jane as soon as possible."
"Is that so? Then there is no way." Shen He seemed to have a headache and said the long-planned conditions, "Then let Chaldea negotiate on behalf of you Asgard."
"Wouldn't this make you bear the infamy for Loki?" Thor was a little moved.
Loki's reputation on Earth now has reached the point where everyone wants to kill him, but Chaldea wants to protect him and repatriate him to Asgard.
Not to mention the difficulty, people's anger alone will damage Chaldea's reputation.
"I'm not doing this entirely for you." Shen He waved his hand. "Loki thinks he is an adopted child and thinks he has not received love from your father, but we know very well that your father, Odin, has always regarded him as his own child, and you also regard him as your brother. I must also consider whether Odin's age and body can bear the grief of losing his children again - the world's peace needs the king of Asgard."
"Shen He..." Thor was really moved this time.
Because he didn't think of this, and Shen He actually cared about Odin's health more than he, a child.
"In addition, about Jane." Shen He raised his hand to continue interrupting him, and handed him a solid version of communication cohabitation, "My wife, Jeanne, has a certain ability to find people. I will ask her to help you point out the direction of Jane, but you'd better find her as soon as possible. I have a hunch that the crisis brought by Loki this time may be very troublesome."
"I understand."
Thor picked up the hammer, turned around and walked two steps, then returned and gave Shen He a bear hug again.
"Thank you very much, Shen He. Chaldea will always be a friend of Asgard."
"Okay, you can leave quickly."
Shen He waved his hand and moved the muscular man directly to the front of the gate.
For Thor, none of the words he just said were false.
However, Chaldea can also benefit from it. The biggest benefit is that in the eyes of ordinary people and international regimes, Chaldea can be regarded as a middleman of alien civilization. I believe that it can further establish Chaldea's authority in this field.
"Tony, how many days can we delay?" Shen He looked at Tony again.
"Rhodey said that the military will prepare compulsory measures in three days at most." Tony repeated what Rhodey had just said to him.
He also obtained some information through his own methods. Behind this matter, some people were eyeing Loki's scepter. They believed that this was an alien weapon that could control the human mind. Whoever possessed it was equivalent to possessing nuclear weapons in the intelligence war. After all, no one knew that the top leaders of their own country and the subordinates they could trust would not be controlled.
These people are really seeking death as long as they live.
Even in the original plot, Thor took away the Cosmic Cube only because Fury made the decision on his own. Even
if they really obtained the psychic weapon, aren't they afraid that it would cause the Third World War?
It seems that another very important role of SHIELD is to prevent these national regimes from committing suicide, which is what Shen He had overlooked before.
"Let's proceed according to the plan." Shen He didn't think much about it. "Try to put the blame for the alien invasion on them as much as possible... This kind of thing of being dragged down, it's enough to happen once, we must take the real initiative, after all, there are bigger crises waiting for us later."
"No problem, they provoked us first this time." Tony shrugged.
He had no psychological burden for pitting those high-ranking congressmen.
When doing business to a certain extent, the so-called congressmen and officials are just like that in their eyes.
Throughout the day, the development of events was just as they imagined.
Previously, the Guardians had been operating within the scope of the law, and the virtual reality company was also doing business in accordance with the rules. In addition, there was the big star company Stark Industries standing in front of them. They had no way to deal with Chaldea.
But this time, it seemed that they wanted to vent all the bad feelings they had accumulated before.
Major media and congressmen were almost bombarding Chaldea with intensive attacks, and they had good reasons.
From Chaldea secretly taking away Loki, who was listed as a wanted criminal, to Chaldea illegally owning more than two modern fighter planes, and openly equipped with weapons to fly over the important city of New York, they even brought out some small things that the Guardians did in protecting the city, such as destroying people's roofs, scaring away the little grandmother's cat, and asking Spiderman to leave spider silk on the glass.
It has to be said that some people are very easily led by public opinion.
In just one day, when the Guardians went to the streets to fight criminals, they encountered a parade asking them to leave the city. Spiderman was even thrown eggs, and even Captain America had people jump out to destroy his outdated suit and propaganda posters.
This was a huge blow to the Guardians who had been praised.
After all, they were just a group of young people.
The next day, Shen He received a message from Steve that the Guardians did not want to go out to work.
"Sure enough, none of these people can be called a hero." Shen He sighed.
Although it felt very troublesome, he had to go because the Guardian Group was related to an important subsequent plan for Chaldea.
When he came to the place where the Guardians lived, he saw them gathered together. To be more precise, the others were comforting Crystal with red eyes.
"What's going on?" He strode over.
"Shen He." Skye stood up indignantly when he saw Shen He, "Those people are too much!"
"You have to call me Chief, Skye, I'm not Coulson."
Shen He first taught Skye a lesson, and then took the tablet from Pietro.
There was an article on it, titled "This World Doesn't Need Superheroes."
I always feel that it looks a bit familiar...
In short, the whole article reveals the negative impact of superheroes on the world from various angles, with emotional appeal and reason. The main target of attack is Crystal, this naive and romantic girl. How should I put it? Because she doesn't know much about the common sense of the human society on Earth, she has indeed created a lot of trouble.
"This article..." Shen He looked at the boys and girls staring at him, "It's actually well written."
"Sir! How can you say that!" Skye seemed a little excited.
Because this article almost said that they were worthless and infinitely belittled everything they did.
"This is a fact." Shen He's expression didn't show what he was thinking, "This article can be said to be the truth about superheroes. As mentioned above, Steve was able to become a hero not because of his great contributions, but because the political propaganda at that time required him to become a hero. Your reputation is also the result of our propaganda."
"Then what about what we did?" Skye couldn't accept it, "We helped so many people!"
"Are you doing this to become a hero?" Shen He asked directly.
"But, but..." Skye opened his mouth, as if he wanted to refute, but didn't know how to say it.
"You guys." Shen He shook his head, "You're with a real hero every day, but you don't know what to learn, Steve." He looked at Steve who was standing silently, "Did you go to the battlefield to become a hero?"
"I didn't have the talent to be a hero when I joined the army." Steve showed a helpless expression, "I just wanted to be an ordinary soldier to help my country, but they asked me to perform, saying that it would help more people. Even when I 'sacrificed' later, I just did it to complete my mission and task as a soldier - just like all the soldiers who died at that time."
