"I don't know about that. It's not too late. Maybe we can have a late-night snack at Ms. Romanov's." Tony laughed.
Murphys nodded: "Then please lead the way."
Tony made himself boring: "I really should introduce you to the captain, you must have a common language."
Dick smiled, presumably Constantine and Tony would have a lot in common.
Smiling and laughing, Tony suddenly pointed you at him: "Hey, Richard, what is this gentleman's name?"
"What? No, they are the only ones who call others, so we can answer."
Dick didn't answer casually. In the past two days, he and Konstantin had consulted and shared a lot of information, but the interpretations of the Sandman, death, and endless family in different materials were more or less different.
Stark's eyes couldn't help being weird.
What about the goddess of fate, under normal circumstances, he would really treat people as lunatics, but this was brought by Dick, well, it might really be a lunatic.
It didn't take long before they arrived at Natasha's residence.
"What day is it today? The two avengers are coming." Natasha warmly invited the three of them into the room.
"No, no," Tony quickly refused: "Natasha, what about the red stone I gave you in the early days of the alliance? Now its owner has come to your door."
"The rock?"
Natasha restrained her frivolous smile, and looked at Murphys seriously. When she noticed those shining eyes, she suddenly opened her eyes wide.
"Are you the Sandman of the Endless Clan?"
That's all she said.
There seemed to be a twinkle in Murphy's eyes.
Dick was dumbfounded.
Tony was also frightened, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"You, you, no you..."
They never expected that Natasha would reveal the origin of Murphys.
Of course, Tony was even more surprised that the things Dick had said that sounded ridiculous to him when he first met him were actually true.
Sandman?
In the bedtime story when I was a child, the one that holds sand and blows it into the corner of the children's eyes, and the children will fall asleep immediately?
Natasha looked at Stark strangely: "It's a pity that you mocked us when the alliance was established, and didn't do a good job of collecting data in advance."
Dick suddenly asked: "You have long suspected that the rock is in it? How long have you been looking for it, and did you use the information from SHIELD?"
"Not S.H.I.E.L.D." Natasha replied subconsciously.
"Since you know that I am the Sandman," Murphys asked, "Where is the Nightmare Stone?"
Natasha's face changed, she spread her hands, and looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, sir, I tried my best, but I couldn't protect it."
That was to be expected, Dick sighed.
How could Natasha be able to protect something that Tony Stark couldn't protect?
In fact, the moment the Nightmare Stone was handed over to Natasha, the matter had already been settled, and it was just a stopgap measure.
Although Tony understood, he was still upset: "Why didn't you tell me?"
Natasha shook her head: "You know, Stark, you should remember how you handed it over. This seems to involve the infighting between S.H.I.E.L.D."
Tony couldn't help but sneer.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. has always been untrustworthy. I should have understood when the Red Hood reminded me."
Even earlier, when the Nightmare Stone was discovered in S.H.I.E.L.D., it should have been known.
"Stark!"
A hint of disappointment also flashed in Natasha's eyes, thinking of what the SHIELD did recently, it really made her, a SHIELD agent, feel that something was wrong.
But she is still a member of S.H.I.E.L.D. after all.
So she turned back directly: "SHIELD can't be trusted, what about the Avengers?"
S.H.I.E.L.D. is not trustworthy, what about Captain, Hawkeye, Thor, Hulk?
Tony was blocked by this sentence, and he didn't know the luck of S.H.I.E.L.D., but none of the Avengers team formed was a good thing.
Even Natasha and Barton are the most affectionate people.
But he was only choked for a second: "Are you an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. or an Avenger?"
Natasha stared into Tony's eyes, but didn't see what Tony meant, but she saw her own firmness reflected in his brown eyes.
She shook her head again.
"I can't answer your question until I actually see S.H.I.E.L.D., which is not what we imagined it to be."
Dick raised his forehead, it seems that now is not the time to talk about this.
It's better for him to stay away from the infighting in S.H.I.E.L.D.
Although at this time, he completely forgot that he was also an Avenger.
Dick coughed: "One question, Ms. Romanov, does S.H.I.E.L.D. know that that stone is the Nightmare Stone?"
The implication is, did you tell S.H.I.E.L.D. about the existence of the Sandman?
"They detected a huge force in it, but they didn't know why."
Regarding this point, Black Widow also thought about whether to remind S.H.I.E.L.D., but in the end she chose to wait and see—even consultant Tony could detect the changes inside S.H.I.E.L.D., and she, an employee, could certainly feel it.
SHIELD's waters have always been deep, especially the recent actions, which always give her a sense of conspiracy.
Not being able to think about it any longer, Natasha pushed those thoughts out of her head.
But hearing what Natasha said, Dick's brows not only did not stretch, but wrinkled even tighter.
He has never asked a question, or in other words, has been deliberately ignoring a question.
If S.H.I.E.L.D. really didn't know about the Sandman's existence, where did Natasha know about it?
Taking a step back, does SHIELD really not know?
Or have they seen it through and Natasha is hiding them?
"We'll talk about this later," Tony immediately made a final decision: "Tell us first, who did you give the Nightmare Stone to in the end?"
"I finally gave it to Fury. To be precise, he wants to go there. Shall I go find it now?"
"Now."

metropolis.
"Tim! They're fighting!!" Garfield had been keeping an eye on Superman behind him, and suddenly shouted.
"I see." Tim's face darkened, and he complained: "What the hell are they doing? Even if the cooperation breaks down, it's too fast!"
"Are we going to stop them?" Rachel said calmly.
"I've contacted the Justice League, Peter, can you hear what they're arguing about?"
Peter shook his head: "My hearing isn't that high yet."
"The Justice League is too late," Rachel said calmly, "Superman and Luthor fight, success or failure is only a split second."
What Rachel said was right, either Superman punched Luthor directly, or Luthor took out kryptonite and knocked Superman flying.
Tim loses his temper: "If it's Superman, he should be able to hear our conversation."
