"Director, a sensitive visitor wants to see you."

In his office at Trident Mansion, Fury overhears a debriefing from his assistant Hill, but he doesn't want to pay attention to it.

The director of the boiled egg head is a little anxious because of the sudden disappearance of Deli's subordinate, the deputy director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Level 9 agent Merlin, but he is a senior agent after all, and he can control his emotions well.

"I'm a little busy right now, Ciel."

Fury took a deep breath and asked:

"If it's not important, say no for me."

"She said her name was Waller, and she was your old friend, Director."

Hill's voice rang out again:

"She's reluctant to reveal the purpose of her visit to you, but her style of dressing, and the way she speaks, really resembles you..."

"Amanda. Waller? ”

Fury was surprised to say the name, and a moment later he said to Ciel:

"Let her in."

Two minutes later, the door to Fury's office was pushed open, and a shrewd-looking black lady in a black trench coat and short hair was ushered in, led by Agent Hill.

Fury waved at Hill and motioned for his assistant to leave.

After Hill closed the door, Fury set his eyes on the visitor in front of him, as Hill said, this woman in her 30s is very similar to Fury in terms of temperament, eyes, and even dressing.

She's like a younger version of Nick. Fury, but a little more sharp.

"I thought I wouldn't see you again in my life, Waller."

The two looked at each other, and after a few seconds, Fury withdrew his gaze, then slowly picked up a document, put it in front of his eyes, and looked at it, he whispered:

"We haven't been in touch for years since we parted in Bucharest."

"I've been looking forward to seeing you again."

Amanda. Waller walked to the window very casually, she reached out and closed the blinds, then took out a watch instrument, and walked around Fury's office twice, after confirming that there was no eavesdropping, recording and monitoring equipment, she sat on the sofa in a lazy posture, her left leg was cocked and rested on her right leg, she looked at Fury, and said in a deep voice:

"Teacher, it's only been more than ten years, and the king of agents back then looks really old."

"Everybody gets old, Waller, including you."

Fury was not angry at the aggressiveness of his disciple, saying:

"You came here with a lot of fanfare, probably not just to sarcastically mock me, so, let's talk about it, you also saw the news you brought, I'm busy."

"Busy checking Hydra?"

The female agent chuckled, she stared at Fury, and she said:

"I'm not trying to sarcastically mock you, teacher, I'm just telling the truth that you're old, your once amazing sense of acuity is gone, you've become sluggish, you've turned the country upside down all these years, just to find the bugs that are hidden, but you've never turned your eyes behind you..."

"The people you're looking for have been hiding in the shadows behind you... Unfortunately, you never find them. ”

"Luckily, I have important news for you before you are pierced in the heart by a dagger from your back."

Fury's expression changed slightly.

His former disciple Amanda. It is not surprising that Waller can find out about the secret investigation of Hydra by S.H.I.E.L.D., Waller is the senior commander of the Celestial Eye Society after all, and that department is young, but it has strong official support.

Especially after S.H.I.E.L.D. came under the management of the World Security Council, began to intervene in international affairs, and gradually distanced itself from the U.S. government, the Sky Eye Society became a substitute for S.H.I.E.L.D. in the official intelligence system of North America, and it was difficult to hide what happened in this country.

In the past few years, Skyeye has intervened in many North American supernatural affairs, and even with S. L.D. had some friction, but both Fury and Merlin avoided a direct confrontation with the Celestial Eye.

On the one hand, they are all official departments after all, and it would be ugly to have a large-scale conflict.

On the other hand, the intervention of the Tianyan Club will also make S.. L.D. is less stressed when dealing with the increasingly complex supernatural affairs.

Although the young department has not yet come up with a strategic plan, in terms of specific tactics, they have executed quite well, at least the deputy director in charge of occult affairs, Merlin, has a high opinion of the several small-scale operations of the Celestial Eye against the aliens.

"I remember that the work of the Celestial Eye Society was mainly in occult affairs, when did you start to care about these espionage affairs?"

Fury clasped his hands together and asked:

"And, I'm curious, what information did you bring to make you so confident to come to my office and make a big fuss?"

"Angry?"

Amanda. Waller smiled, she stood up, walked to Fury's desk, propped her hands on the table, and said to Fury:

"Don't be angry, teacher, I'm here to ask for cooperation. And the news I brought is the sincerity of the Tianyan Society, believe me, it is very much needed by you. ”

"Let's talk about the news first, and then talk about cooperation."

Fury said without giving an inch:

"Show your sincerity first, and then I'll think about it."

"You're still the same, haven't changed at all."

A hint of indifference flashed across Waller's face, and she said:

"If you don't see a rabbit, you don't scatter an eagle."

"I taught you, Waller, that we are agents, and this is our code of conduct."

Fury Says:

"It's not mixed with any personal factors, the rules are the rules."

"Okay."

Waller reached out and took a recording device out of his pocket and threw it on Fury's desk, who reached out and opened it, and a brief conversation rang out in the office:

"I've found information about the leader of Hydra, an old man who serves in the World Security Council, probably a council member, and has a lot of prestige in political circles."

"Can you confirm the authenticity of the message?"

"You know... Under the lasso of truth, there is only truth, not lies. ”

The conversation was clearly processed, and the pitch of both interlocutors had changed, but the information revealed made Fury frown.

He looked at Amanda with confidence. Waller, he said:

"Are you kidding? Waller, do you think I'm going to start investigating the members of the World Security Council with a recording you got out of nowhere? ”

"No, you don't need to investigate."

Waller whispered:

"The Tianyan Society has completed the investigation, and we have locked the target, we have the evidence, and we are one step ahead of you."

She reached out and tapped her cool watch, and a projection appeared in front of Fury's eyes, showing several photographs taken.

That's Alexander. Pierce and several gray-haired elderly men at a meeting of the World Security Council, as well as several property deeds, and screenshots of some bank accounts.

"There is no need to doubt the authenticity of the source, Fury, and I can assure you that the information is true and there can be no error. Based on these characteristics, our goal was narrowed down to three people. ”

Amanda. Waller looked at the projection, and she said:

"Alexander. Pierce, Gideon. Malik, and Daryl. Bromfield. ”

"All of them have served as members of the World Security Council, they are all very prestigious in political circles, and they are all old men, and they are all men. Daryl. Lord Bromfield died of a cerebral hemorrhage last year, so there are only two possible targets..."

"You mean, the leader of the Hydra..."

Fury looked at the two people circled in red in the photo, and he said:

Gideon. Malik? ”

"Hmm."

Waller nodded, and she said:

"I know that Deputy Director Merlin, who is in charge of supernatural affairs of S.H.I.E.L.D., disappeared 2 hours ago, and with him a 'friend' of the Celestial Eye Society, I know that it was a major crisis related to the internal affairs of the Inhuman Dynasty, and the location of that crisis, I mean, the castle that hides the mysterious object that can summon the Inhuman evil god, although it has changed hands many times over the decades, its actual owner has not changed."

Gideon. Mr. Malik's family has controlled the castle since at least 500 years ago, and we have searched the family property of Lord Malik by some less legal means... As a result, we found a lot of interesting details. ”

The projection on Waller's wrist, which replaced several screenshots of the bank's cash flow, said to Fury:

"You guys got rid of it a few years ago. M, and Zemo Business Investments, which has been confirmed to be a branch of Hydra, and even Daniel. Whitehall's laboratories are funded by the same consortium, which is nominally a charitable organization, but the chairman of that organization is none other than Gideon. The daughter of Lord Malik, Stephanie. Miss Malik. ”

"Of course, there was a huge amount of money invested in a NASA exploration program called Project Farstar, but according to NASA's official records, that program was scrapped 27 years ago... It has been operating, and over the years, more than 15 astronauts have disappeared, which is inseparable from this farstar program. ”

She looked at Fury, who was solemn, and said:

"Do you need me to continue?"

Fury didn't answer, he turned his head to look at the recording device in his hand, and after nearly a minute of silence, he turned his head to Amanda in front of him. Waller Says:

"What kind of cooperation will Tianyan want?"

"Quite simply, we asked for a meeting with the S.H. Ward, a subordinate department of S.H.I.E.L.D., headed by Deputy Director Merlin. L.D. set up a data sharing system. ”

Waller said seriously:

"I know S.. L.D. has built a large database of supernatural affairs and alien information, and the Sky Eye will want this database to be open to us as well, and of course, we will also upload our data to this database..."

"It's a very reasonable request, monitoring the affairs of the supernatural realm is only one of the functions of S.H.I.E.L.D., but it is the entire work of the Sky Eye Society."

The senior commander of the Sky Eye Society calmly said to Fury:

"I hate to admit it, but the new order established by Agent Merlin in the occult realm is worth learning from. L.D. is indeed the best teacher of the Sky Eye Club. ”

"You need to talk to Merlin about this."

Fury Says:

"If you know a lot about the functional structure of S.H.I.E.L.D., you should know that if Merlin doesn't agree to your request, even I can't intervene."

"I know."

Amanda shrugged her shoulders and she said to Fury:

"But Agent Merlin is still missing, and according to the 'friend' of the Celestial Eye Society, the chances of him returning to the real world safely in the near future are very low... So if I were you, Teacher, I'd prepare for the worst beforehand, I mean, maybe you need to find a new deputy director..."

"Ahem"

Just as Waller finished speaking, a light cough sounded behind the two of them.

"The world is really bad, I only left for 2 hours, and there were rumors that I was dying."

Merlin, who was on a cane, stepped out of the distorted light, he changed into a suit of clothes, and apparently cleaned up his hair, and he looked at Amanda with his back to him. Waller, he pushed his glasses, and whispered:

"You young people, you are so young and simple, listening to the wind is the rain... It's a thing that has no evidence, you have to pass it on again, fortunately Fury didn't listen to you, otherwise if something goes wrong in the future in terms of publicity, you will be responsible, do you know? ”

"Young man?"

Amanda. Waller's expression was a little embarrassed, but after all, she was Fury's disciple, and Fury's true biography was deep in this aspect of thick skin, she turned around expressionlessly, looking at Merlin who was intact and ruddy, and she said:

"I'm older than you, okay?"

"Oh, so now in the secret service industry, being older is also an advantage?"

Merlin said casually:

"If the senior commander of the Tianyan Society is just like this, then I'm really disappointed... Lord Waller, you really need to improve your knowledge. ”

"You!"

Waller was a little distracted by Merlin's words, but just as she was about to retort, Merlin interrupted her with a wave of his hand.

He was interested in Amanda. Waller Says:

"The sharing of information in the big database of occult affairs can be given to you, but only if you can't just intervene in S. What I mean by L.D. is that if the two sides want to cooperate, they need to have a complete system of non-interference that defines each other's terms of reference. On this you can go and Phil. Agent Coulson talks at length. ”

Merlin looked at Ms. Waller, and said:

"Any questions?"

"It's gone."

Waller had achieved her purpose, her expression became gentle, she held out her hand towards Merlin, and said:

"So, a pleasure to work with?"

"Hmm. Happy to work with. ”

Merlin also reached out and shook Waller's hand, he looked at Waller, frowned slightly, and then lowered his voice and said to Waller:

"Ma'am... With all due respect, your illness can't be delayed any longer. ”

Waller's expression changed for a moment, she didn't say anything, but turned back to Fury and nodded, and quickly left Fury's office.

"She's sick?"

Fury watched his former disciple leave, and he looked at Merlin, who had a hint of pity on his face, and said:

"Well, it can basically be regarded as an incurable disease, your disciple, she is quite pitiful."

"Alright, let's talk about Hydra."

Merlin stood in front of Fury's eyes, he looked at the recording equipment in Fury's hand, and said:

"Caught that diving snake?"

"Hmm."

Fury closed his eyes, leaning back in his chair, said:

"It's troublesome... It's really troublesome, I need to communicate with Pierce first, if this matter is not done well, it will cause a big mess. I mean, big, big enough to bring the whole S.H.I.E.L.D. in there. ”
