"What is this sound coming from?"

Coulson's footsteps paused, and before he could ask, the combatant next to him approached the man who had discovered the secret passage.

After hearing the question, Coulson couldn't help but turn his head to look at the fighter who had discovered the situation, and his slightly puzzled eyes seemed to be asking.

"Sir, I don't know."

Glancing at Coulson and the other man, the combatant pondered for a moment, then said in a hesitant voice, "It's just that this sound seems to have come from a human." ”

"Nonsense ......"

After hearing the explanation, Coulson and the combatant next to him couldn't help but roll their eyes, and at the same time secretly complained in their hearts.

But after complaining in his heart, Coulson looked grim, stretched out his hand, and then began to give orders: "You go and call a few more people over, let's go in and see the situation." ”

"Yes, sir." One of the combatants next to Coulson nodded to him, and trotted over to the group of other combatants who were still searching for traces in the small building.

Coulson, who was standing in place with a bright flashlight in his hand, leaned over slightly and looked under the dark passage, and did not wait long before he saw the fighter who had just left running over with a dozen people.

"Sir, everything is ready."

Hearing the report of this combatant, Coulson did not look back, but waved to everyone behind him, and said loudly: "Let's go, let's go down and have a look." ”

As he spoke, Coulson took a flashlight and walked down the stairs first.

The stairs of the secret passage were not long, and within two minutes, Coulson and the group reached the basement below the passage, and as soon as they entered the basement, the low whine heard just now reached the ears of Coulson and the accompanying combat personnel again.

"Who ......?"

After hearing the sound, Coulson let out a loud shout, and then shone the bright flashlight in his hand towards the source of the sound.

"This ...... It's ......"

It's just that after seeing what the flashlight shone on, Coulson's eyes couldn't help but widen instantly, and his expression suddenly became hideous, and although all the combatants standing behind him were blindfolded, it was enough to see from their suddenly open eyes.

They had apparently seen something that had shocked them immensely.

…………

While Coulson was leading a group of fighters to search the small building of Hell's Kitchen, a group of people gathered on the top floor of a building in another part of New York.

On the top floor of a high-rise building with dozens of floors, in a huge office, a middle-aged white man looked at the group of people standing in front of him, instantly frowned, raised his palm and slapped the desk in front of him twice.

"Bach, Louis, don't you guys have brains? If I hadn't learned about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s operations through inside information, do you know where you should be right now? ”

While slamming the table heavily, the middle-aged man looked at the group of people standing in front of him with a full face of resentment, and shouted angrily.

"Mr. Howist, I'm sure we haven't leaked any information about the organization, and in Hell's Kitchen we're all working as gangsters."

Looking at the middle-aged man sitting in the office chair with a red face and looking full of anger, the sturdy Bach couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead, but he still endured the chill in his heart and explained out loud.

"If that's what you say, then how could S.H.I.E.L.D. find your heads?"

Staring at Bach, the stout white man standing in front of him, Howise couldn't help but question again: "You must know that it doesn't seem necessary to dispatch S.H.I.E.L.D. just to solve a small gang, unless ......"

At this point, Howist's did not continue, but frowned and glanced at the people standing in front of his desk.

Bach, on the other hand, did not hear the second half of Howise's words, but they knew Howise very well, and they had obviously guessed what he wanted to say.

Unless......

Bach and Louis, as well as the group standing next to them, were all startled when they heard Howise say the word, and they all looked at Howist, a middle-aged man sitting in an office chair with a gloomy face.

Unless S.H.I.E.L.D. has discovered that they are a small branch of Hydra that is hidden.

"But ......"

Bach hesitated for a moment, then asked in a trembling voice: "Mr. Howist, this is impossible!" I think we've been well hidden, and since S.H.I.E.L.D. hasn't discovered our true identities for so many years, how could it be possible to find out the details of us during this time? ”

"Got to know your details?"

Howistt shook his head and said slowly, "I don't think it's possible, but ......"

Speaking of this, Howist's eyes suddenly froze, and his tone instantly increased: "But maybe it's something you've done during this time that has touched the sensitive nerves of S.H.I.E.L.D. ”

"And don't underestimate the energy of S.H.I.E.L.D., since S.H.I.E.L.D. was able to destroy our great leader Red Skull during World War II and inflict heavy damage on us, it is enough to show their strength."

"Indeed."

After listening to Howist's words, Barton, Louis and the others couldn't help but nod thoughtfully, and after saying yes together, Bach immediately said again: "We have been fighting against S.H.I.E.L.D. for so many years and have not destroyed them, which proves that their strength is not unreasonable. ”

"Hmm!" Howistt nodded slightly, then stood up abruptly, his frowning brows slowly relaxed, his hands clapped lightly, and said in a loud voice: "Okay." ”

"Now that we know about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s actions, and you have been out of danger smoothly, we don't want to talk about these things now, but you still have to temporarily avoid the limelight for a long time in the future, after all, now S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury must have your most comprehensive information in his hands, as long as you appear, there will definitely be countless pairs of eyes staring at your every move, maybe after you appear, you will be immediately arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents."

After Bach and the others quieted down, Howist immediately propped his hands on the desk, stared at Bach who was staring at him, and then said in a loud voice: "And I have a particularly important matter for you to do in the near future, so you must hide here during this time......"

But before Howist could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Bach's words that he wanted to say and stopped.

I saw Bach frown slightly and said, "Mr. Howisest, I ......"

It's just that as soon as he called out a name, Bach suddenly stopped, and looked hesitantly at the middle-aged man Howist, who was staring at him.

"What's wrong? Any questions? ”

"Uh...... It's nothing! Glancing at the slightly overwhelmed Howyst, Bach hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to give up what he had just wanted to say.

"Alright, you guys go out first! I'll ask my assistant to help you get some accommodation here later. ”

As he spoke, Howist, with a little impatience, waved his hand to Bach and Louis and the others, signaling them to go out.

"Yes, Mr. Howist."

After seeing Howist's expression, Bach also felt that his people didn't seem to have the need to say anything, nodded slightly, and then turned around and walked towards the door first.

After Bach and his party all left, and only Howise was left alone in the huge office, he glanced at the direction in which Bach and they left, and muttered to himself with a gloomy face: "Being targeted by S.H.I.E.L.D., you must already be suspected of leaking, so for the sake of our overall plan, we must not be able to keep you anymore." ”

"It's just that before you disappear, it seems that you can still use a little residual heat, after all, the abandoned son also has some use."

Talking to himself alone, Howist's face couldn't help but show a mysterious smile.
