Chapter Ninety-Five: It's Yours to Decide
Although he didn't recognize Richard, Garrett thought to himself that since the other party appeared here, his identity would not be ordinary. So he nodded politely and replied, "I am." What's wrong? ”
"Oh, nothing." "I'm a special advisor to this incident and I'm directly accountable to Director Fury. ”
As soon as Garrett said this, he immediately understood: "Oh, that's right, fortunately. ”
Other agents may not know Richard's identity, but Richard reckons that Garrett should not know. After all, this guy is Grant Ward's supervisor and the guide for Ward to enter S.H.I.E.L.D.
Agent Ward knew the identity of Ultraman Richard, so even if Fury had ordered him to keep quiet, he would undoubtedly have told Garrett that most likely the rest of Hydra would have known as well. It's just that they all pretended to be stupid in front of Fury and pretended not to have heard.
So the current situation of Aegis is like this - Director Fury said that such and such a thing is highly confidential and no one is allowed to disclose it, but in the end he only hid it from his own people, and Hydra knew it all......
"You're Agent Grant Ward's custodian, aren't you? I've heard him talk about you, and he has a lot of respect for you. Richard said with a smile.
It sounded like an ordinary greeting, so Gatler also modestly said: "Ward is a very talented and good agent, and he is more dependent on himself than me to get to where he is today." ”
"He's really good and professional. I didn't deal with him much, but I could clearly see it. Richard said with a smile, "When I talked to him before, he mentioned that he thought he was a warrior, and he also expressed his determination to charge forward for the important cause of Aegis and humanity. I think he seems to be the kind of person who is willing to fight for his ideals, has a passion and is more capable, and all he lacks is an opportunity. ”
Garrett was stunned for a moment, faintly feeling that something was wrong in his heart, but he still nodded along with his words: "Ward is indeed like this, he belongs to the kind of person who is cold-faced and hot-hearted. ”
"Right? I think so too. So I don't think this event is just that opportunity? I think Agent Ward is a good fit for this operation, he has the power and the determination to do so, and I think he should be given this opportunity. You tell me? ”
"I ...... Well...... I think so. Galle nodded, "Ward is up to the task." ”
Although Ward is his man, he is only a pawn of him in the end. Anyway, he didn't let Garrett go on it personally, he sold it and sold it, and he didn't have any psychological burden. Besides, letting Ward take over some such important tasks can also consolidate his position in Aegis, and if he comes back, he can mix up a seventh- or eighth-level agent or something, which is also very good for the organization!
As soon as he came down, Richard smiled and continued, "I knew you would say that." But you don't know, Ward also said that Agent Garrett is still a warrior at heart, although he is a little weak due to his age. He said that although you rarely show it, you always want to have a chance to continue to prove yourself. ”
Garrett's face changed slightly.
Did he say these things? It seems that it did. But in fact, Garrett is not the only one who thinks this way, and most of the people who are similar to him in a similar position and situation have similar thoughts.
Most people like Garrett who can climb to such a position are obsessed with the thrill of power. John Garrett invested a lot of money and energy in the Centipede Project, intending to retain his vitality over time through genetic modification, precisely to enjoy the thrill of power and power more.
Garrett was instigated to rebel into Hydra, and there was no such reason. To be honest, he was tired of Aegis, and as a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent he often had to carry out the most dangerous missions, face the most complex situations, and even if he saved the world, he often did not receive public praise and glory, like an idealist who generates electricity with love. From Garrett's point of view, he thinks it's better to join the army and take a group of soldiers to fight in Afghanistan, Iraq and other places, the danger factor is much smaller than being an agent and spy, not to mention, and he can still gain fame and fortune when he comes back, isn't it beautiful?
But he never said that he wanted to lead the team to fight with alien giants who didn't know the details, didn't he have enough to eat?
If the giants were different from what the Asgardians described, or if the giants had some kind of secret weapon like a nuclear bomb that blew him up in the sky, then who is it?
Garrett secretly scolded Ward for selling himself without saying a word, and at the same time, his eyes rolled slightly, making a look of embarrassment: "What you said is not a good idea, and I really want to lead the team to fight at the forefront myself." But everyone also knows that I am really old, and my body is not as good as day by day. The sequelae left by past missions are becoming more and more serious, and although I want to go to the battlefield, I can't do it......"
Garrett Balabala said a lot, and almost cried with a handful of tears. To sum up, the general meaning is that I have made meritorious contributions to Aegis, I have shed blood for the country, and I have been injured in the mission, so you can't send me to be cannon fodder......
Then Nick Fury himself spoke, saying that things are not as difficult as you think. The main force of this operation is the army side, let's say that the good thing is to assist in the battle plundering array or something, and the bad thing is to go to the water to make soy sauce, and you don't need to personally lead the team to the front line.
And didn't you analyze it before, the frost giant doesn't sound so difficult, the combat power of the army should be enough to deal with it, and we don't need our Aegis to make a move.
Seeing that Garrett was still a little unhappy, he started democracy at this time and asked the opinions of the other agents present.
Asked Pierce, the old man smiled and nodded and said that it was good, that's all. Asked the bald brother Livet, who nodded quickly without saying a word, for fear of slowing down by half a beat - his direct boss, Minister Pierce, nodded, if he dared to say a word, he was afraid that he would not see the sun tomorrow.
Then the boiled egg asked a few more people, and everyone said that Agent Garrett had rich experience and superb command ability, and he was sure to rest assured that he would be handed over to things, and it was proper!
Garrett looked at the Hydra comrades in front of him, and almost didn't lift the table on the spot, pointed at them and scolded them for not remembering the righteousness of his comrades......
