Chapter Forty-Three: Mr. Agent Comes Again
"I've got a key point in mind." Nick Fury suddenly stood up, stared at Coulson with one eye and said, "I remember you said that the wizard of Patch Maivis can create magical beings on his own, could it be that his daughter is just a magical life?" ”
After listening to Nick Fury's words, Coulson couldn't help rubbing his chin and pondering, but after a while, he replied with a smile: "It's unlikely! ”
"Although that Oriana does have the mind of an ordinary human, but it is still very different from a normal person in appearance, but this Elizabeth ......" Seeing Nickoff's doubts, Coulson quickly explained: "Oh, it's that daughter of Patch Maivis." ”
"But Elizabeth is almost indistinguishable from a normal little girl, and the only difference is probably that this little girl is very beautiful."
"If Patch Maivis can create magical life to such an extent, then what's the difference between him and God, so sir, I don't think this little girl should be a magical life." Staring at Nick Fury, Coulson expounded his point with great seriousness.
"Alright! Anyway, we don't know if this little girl named Elizabeth is a magical life or not. Nick Fury spread his hands helplessly, and continued: "Let's get this over first, Coulson, isn't there one more thing?" Go on......"
"Yes, sir."
Coulson nodded, and then said again: "Since Patch Maivis returned to his cabin, except for going out with his daughter Elizabeth, we have stayed at home most of the time, and we didn't think anything unusual at first, but one day we suddenly checked the funds in his account and found that he actually sold all the stocks that had been on the rise, but ......"
Coulson paused, swallowed his saliva, and continued: "I bought all the money from the sale of the stock into Stark Industries, a stock that has been declining. ”
"Sir, I just saw this extremely abnormal place, so I came up to report it to you."
"Bought all Stark Industries?"
After listening to Coulson's words, Nick Fury couldn't help frowning, and after thinking for a while, he said aloud: "But since Tony Stark was kidnapped in Afghanistan, the stock price of Stark Industries has been falling, and I think that as long as a normal person will never put a few stocks that will definitely make money, and buy a stock that continues to lose money, but ......"
"But Patch Maivis really did that."
Coulson took Nick Fury's words, stared at his one-eyed, and continued, "Sir, I don't think Patch Maivis is a stupid man, on the contrary, he is probably smarter than all of us, so there is definitely a reason why he did it for a reason we don't know. ”
"Coulson, of course I also believe that he will not be a fool, if he is really a fool, it is impossible for him to have such a powerful ability and still be able to uphold his own principles and not do evil."
Nick Fury nodded, but immediately his voice changed abruptly: "It's just that Patch Maivis has no reason to do this, and he can't get any gain!" Unless he just wants to do his part to make up for the lack of funds in Stark Industries, but I don't think that's possible......"
"It's really not possible." Coulson nodded in agreement, but there was clearly something strange in his eyes.
Nick Fury, who used to be the king of agents, naturally noticed Coulson's abnormality, only to see him probe Coulson's hand, and opened his mouth to ask, "Coulson, do you have any ideas?" Speak up and hear ......"
"Yes, sir." Coulson nodded, stared at Nick Fury seriously, and said loudly: "Sir, you think that someone like Patch Maivis would never be stupid enough to buy Stark Industries' stock at this time, I think he must have his own considerations in it......"
Coulson's gaze on Nick Fury tightened a little closer, and continued: "So, although Patch Maivis is temporarily losing money when he buys the stock of Stark Industries, it is possible that he can earn it back with interest in the future, and if the stock price of Stark Industries can rise, there is only one possibility......"
"That's Tony Stark back." Prompted by Coulson, Nick Fury said this sentence with Coulson.
Hearing Nick Fury say the same answer as himself, Coulson went on to add: "If Tony Stark is back, then Patchy Maivis is not just stupid at all, but a real smart move." And he will get a lot of money from it. ”
"Coulson, your guess is well-founded, but ......"
Nick Fury was obviously not completely convinced by Coulson's general statement, and continued to ask the doubts in his heart: "But how can Patch Maivis guarantee that Tony Stark will definitely come back safely?" ”
Staring at Coulson, Nick Fury asked, "Do you know that Tony Stark didn't know where he was kidnapped by the terrorists in Afghanistan?" We don't even know if he's dead or alive, so ......"
"Coulson, I can't guarantee that your guess is completely correct."
"Sir!" Hearing Nick Fury's series of questions, Coulson couldn't help but purse his lips to reveal a helpless expression, and shouted heavily.
"Coulson, what's wrong?" Nick Fury hurriedly looked up at him in confusion.
"Sir, you seem to have forgotten what makes Patch Maivis truly special."
Coulson stared at Nick Fury and continued, "You know, he's a wizard who uses a body of knowledge that we can't understand at all, so maybe Patch Maivis has something like Future Prediction?" ”
"And ......"
Coulson paused for a moment, then continued, "If Patch Maivis didn't have that ability, then what he's been doing these days doesn't make sense. ”
After listening to Coulson's words, Nick Fury's expression couldn't help but become solemn instantly, and he muttered in a low voice, "Do you know the future?" ”
After stroking his forehead and pondering for a long time, Nick Fury raised his head and looked at Coulson again, frowning and saying in a deep voice, "Coulson, it seems that I have to make personal contact with this Mr. Patch Maivis......"
…………
On the other side, in Patch's humble little rental house.
Patch had just returned from playing with Elizabeth for a few hours when he quickly turned on his computer and looked at the stock market situation of Stark Industries today.
When his worn-out second-hand notebook showed the stock market MACD chart, Patch's face showed an undisguised expression of heartache.
Because Stark Industries' stock price fell so fast, the one million dollars he invested shrank by half in less than a few days, so he couldn't help but feel heartache!
"Calm down, calm down, this money will be earned back sooner or later." Caressing his chest, Patch muttered to himself comfortingly.
And after saying this sentence to himself, Patch hurriedly added in his heart: "In the future, you must not look at the stock once a day to find abuse by yourself, wait until half a month later, Tony Stark should have come back by then!" ”
"Well, that's it!"
With a final nod, Patch put away his computer and prepared to take a shower in the bathroom.
But just as he was about to get up and go to the bathroom, he heard a sudden knock on the door outside the room.
