Under the banner of visiting her aunt, Maria walked into Natasha's villa openly. Of course, her outfit was inevitably ridiculed by Natasha. Although her current identity is very different, Natasha still has no intention of being polite to her.

"Good afternoon, aunt. I don't know when you've become so young! Where did you borrow this outfit from and who painted your makeup. I think you should give him some tips because it's really not easy to dress you up so young."

"Enough, Natasha. I don't have time to joke with you here. I have something to do when I come to you."

She sat on the sofa in the living room very unceremoniously, and Maria had already looked at Natasha. This behavior made Natasha stunned, but she still brought Maria a cup of black coffee as she expected, and then sat opposite her and asked her strangely.

"Is there anything you need to come here to find? You must know that your current identity is extraordinary. In the eyes of those who are interested, no matter how you disguise yourself, it is impossible to hide it."

"It's only this time. Otherwise, you think I'll use this method."

Refuted disdainfully, Maria did not drink coffee, but opened her handbag and touched a lady's cigarette from it to light it. This is a problem she has learned recently. Because of the pressure at work, she had to learn to use some ways to relieve her spirit. Compared with men, women can use much less ways to relax. So she learned a common method, smoking.

This is the easiest way to relax. And this method has a special benefit. That is, the smoke burning tobacco can block your eyes and some subtle expressions to a certain extent, making it difficult for others to guess your true thoughts.

Maria smokes not only to relieve her mental stress, but more to deal with Natasha. If she is an ordinary person, she will definitely disdain to use such small means. But for Natasha, she has to make more preparations. Because she is not sure whether this most elite agent will find something from her expression.

After taking a few breaths, he vomited out without any lungs. His colleague, who had her face covered in a smoke, also opened his mouth directly at Natasha.

"Remember your mission? About the secrets inside the Nanoneuron Company?"

"Of course." Natasha, who also guessed what Maria was going to ask, nodded, and then according to her own ideas, she told everything she knew and thought she should say. "Nanoneurons are companies registered in that country. There are some people with government-related relationships behind the company that hold shares. The shares are not large, but they can provide political protection to the entire company. Of course, the most important thing is its R&D strength."

"This company has not appeared in that country for a long time. But it has the strongest R&D capabilities. What you think is the technology they stolen was actually developed by them themselves. From the manufacturing of the lowest nanometals to the use of nanomedicine in human medicine, all the technology trees companies are complete. So, your initial idea is not correct. They are not as suspicious as you said."

"This is impossible!" Shaking his head vigorously, Maria directly denied Natasha's statement. "You are also a professional. Don't you know the problems that will arise in technology development? No matter how talented the two people are, can they still develop an almost identical thing at both ends of the world without any discussion?"

"Aren't Tony and Ivan Vanke a good example?" Natasha said this with a smile, with a very confident smile. "You are asking me to help you investigate such a thing. But now I gave you the results of my investigation and you don't believe it. I have no choice. You know, I have retired. Helping you is due to the past situation. I didn't get a penny from you, and we don't have that kind of interest between superiors and subordinates. If you don't want to believe me, then you can find someone else to investigate this."

Of course Maria would not go to find someone else. Because even if she found someone else, she would not be able to do better than Natasha. However, the things Natasha said now did not satisfy her. She came here at risk not to listen to such news. So, after a while of silence, she had a conceivable idea, and then said to Natasha.

"Well, you are the most professional person, I believe in your judgment. However, there are some things you probably haven't told me yet."

"There are some more things? What do you want to know?"

"It is impossible for a technology to have no inventors. And a person who can invent this technology cannot be an unknown person. Just like Tony, there are several people in the world who don't know his existence. And since the development of nanoneurons has reached the present, there must be a similar person. However, unlike Tony's swagger, this guy seems to have no intention of showing up. I have investigated this and there seems to be no clue at all. So I want to ask you if there is any special news."

As soon as Maria said this, Natasha's face immediately showed a look of thought. She was recalling, and Maria kept waiting for her to recall. It was not until a cigarette was almost burned that Natasha opened her mouth again.

"I know a person. According to the habits on the other side of the earth, you can call him Mr. Ao. But I really don't know the specific one. You should know that the government there is the most strict organization in the world. You don't even know what their secret department is called. How can you find such a secret by me, a person who has no energy at all now?"

"Mr. Ao?" The answer is different from what Maria Hill thought. And it was this situation that was completely out of the imagination that made her entire eyebrows become an ugly lump. "Are you sure?"

"You can find someone to investigate by yourself. Of course, it's best to find someone who can penetrate the upper level on the other side."

Maria stopped talking this time. She just silently pinched off the cigarette that had already ended, and then lit a new one for herself.

Such behavior is really a bit abnormal. Even if Natasha was unwilling to investigate this issue, she had to frown and ask her questions.

"What, is there something wrong?"

There were some things Maria didn't want to say at first, and as long as she could get some evidence, there was no need to let Natasha know. But now it's different, everything is different from what she expected, which makes her unable to verify the guess in her heart. So, when Natasha asked this question, she felt right and said to her directly.

"I discovered some secrets. This secret may have something to do with Tony!"

As soon as she said this, Natasha felt a sudden slap in her heart. She was as smart as she had already heard the meaning of trouble from this sentence. And what she had finally escaped from her previous life now was trouble. So she immediately stopped Maria from saying what was next. But Maria had to say to her one step ahead of her.

"I know you don't want to get into trouble. To be honest, I didn't mean to get you in at the beginning. But now, I hope you can listen to the secrets I discovered. Because I am worried that if someone knows that I am secretly investigating these things, then what happened to Nick Fury before will happen to me again. You shouldn't want me to die inexplicably!"

As a friend, Natasha naturally didn't want to watch such tragic things happening to Maria. However, she really didn't want to cause trouble to herself anymore. This made it difficult for her to do! In the end, feelings gained the upper hand. So she could only sigh deeply and said to Maria.

"Tell me. I want to see what makes you so unconfident."

Grinning, Maria showed a not so good-looking smile. Then she began to say that.

"I discovered a secret. That is, Tony's situation is no longer a bit like a human. Do you still remember the shooting that happened before the White House?"

"I remember that the news has been reported more than once. It is said that the situation was very critical at that time, and Mrs. Stark was almost dead."

Nodded, Natasha had just replied, and Maria shook her hand impatiently, and then started to speak in a low voice.

"It's not just Maria. She's just an innocent person implicated. The target that person is really going to attack is Tony! Do you think a person who has been working for more than 30 years in F can be off the target at such a close distance?"

"Off-target?" Shaking her head, Natasha directly expressed her denial attitude. As a professional, she knew very well what shooting was. As long as she often contacted her with a gun, even a person who had only practiced shooting skills for two or three years would not be able to hit the target. And an old f-sucker would be even more impossible.

Natasha's reaction was within Maria's expectations, because she and Natasha had the same idea. So immediately, she said to Natasha.

"Since it is impossible to get off the target, where is the bullet hit? You may not believe the answer, but this is exactly what I want to tell you."

"The bullet hit Tony, and it clearly hit him in the vital point. The key to the problem is not here, the key to the problem lies in Tony. I found the video of the sightings at that time, and then made a reverse analysis bit by bit. Finally, I discovered this."
