Chapter 18: Coulson of Iron

Chinatown.

Chinatown at night is still quite lively, many people come and go on the street, but it is no different from other places in the United States, there are many street women and drug dealers, and I don't know what is hidden in the dark corners.

In a black SUV on the corner of the street, a man was eating, Chinese food, Zuo Zongtang chicken.

Reached out and put a piece of chicken nugget in his mouth, then turned his head to look at the woman next to him, and said with a smile, "You really don't eat it?" ”

Although the man has a white face, he uses chopsticks well, and accurately holds a chicken nugget from the paper cup and puts it into his mouth.

The woman didn't look at the man, looked out the window and said lightly: "I like to eat Kung Pao chicken, I'm Chinese." ”

The man said helplessly: "Mei, you don't need to emphasize this, I know you are Chinese." Saying that, the man put the finished food in a bag and put it away, and said with a smile: "Just like I know that you don't go out on duty, you don't have to always hint at me." ”

Melinda turned her head to look at the white man and didn't speak, waiting for him to give her an explanation.

"First of all, this matter involves Chinatown, no one is more suitable than you, and secondly, you just follow me as a driver or consultant, you can choose whichever title you like!" The white man shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

"Coulson, I didn't expect to be this kind of person." Melinda turned her head and said lightly.

Coulson picked up the binoculars and glanced not far away and said, "It's not too late to know, but our goal seems to have appeared." As he spoke, he adjusted the binoculars and said, "At ten o'clock, the bald man in a black leather jacket." ”

Listening to Coulson's words, Melinda also picked up the binoculars and looked over, and sure enough, a bald man in a black leather jacket on the corner of the street was standing there.

"Coulson, you haven't told me you're looking for anything." Melinda asked lightly while observing the other party.

"A mutant!" Agent Coulson said lightly: "Obviously, we are not the only ones who are eyeing her, and there are also people trying to protect her, but basically they all fail!" With that, Coulson placed a document in front of Melinda.

Melinda's expression instantly became serious, and there was nothing good about involving mutants.

She transferred back to civilian work from the field for a mutant little girl. Listening to Coulson talk about this now, how could Melinda not care, so she turned her head to look at Coulson and didn't speak.

Coulson called himself out knowing about his experience, and Melinda felt she needed an explanation.

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s strength Melinda is clear, even if it's a mutant, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't have to call herself out. Apparently there was something he didn't know, and Coulson was hiding it.

"Okay!" Coulson saw Melinda staring at him, and said helplessly.

"The target is Chinese, according to intelligence analysis, she is not very old, and it should be a little girl of Chinese descent. The ability is not clear for the time being, but she knows that she has a special ability, and now she is being targeted by an inexplicable organization. ”

Melinda rolled her eyes, inexplicable organizations, since Captain America showed his might, the number of inexplicable organizations interested in superpowers has increased rapidly, including the American military, which has made a big green guy.

"We want to reach her, get to know her, and eventually absorb her." Coulson turned his head to look at Melinda and said with some seriousness: "Of course, this is just a preliminary idea, and it depends on her ability." ”

Melinda was silent, turned her head to look out the window, her expression flickering, not knowing what she was thinking.

Coulson on the side was slightly embarrassed, and finally said helplessly: "In fact, we have found a lot of people, but there is no suitable candidate." Only you are the most suitable, with enough level and enough free time. ”

"Ms. Carter brought you into S.H.I.E.L.D., and now it's up to you to do it."

Melinda still didn't speak, pointing to the bald man who got into a car outside the car and said, "Is the girl in his hand?" ”

Corser shook his head: "I don't know for the time being, when the matter first appeared, a person named Zhang Qi in the Chinatown Triad was killed, and it is said that the little girl was originally in his hands. ”

"Since this Zhang Qi died, the little girl has disappeared."

"Immediately after that, the triad people were killed one after another, all of them were related to Zhang Qi, and obviously our opponent had not yet found this little girl. The last deceased was named Zhang Biao, Zhang Qi's own family, who died two days ago on the night. ”

"Unlike the deaths of the other people in the previous triad, this Zhang Biao's death is very strange."

Coulson started the car and followed the car in front of him, while Melinda flipped through the information while listening to Coulson tell herself.

"The members of the triad in front, everyone died in a dark corner, and they were all forced to confess before they died, and this Zhang Biao died here." Saying that, Coulson pointed to a photo and said, "Zhang Tianshi Baibao Store." ”

Melinda was stunned for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "Zhang Tianshi Baibao Store? ”

"yes!" Coulson nodded, pointed to a photo and said, "This is it, do you know anything about this Zhang Tianshi Hundred Treasure Store?" ”

Melinda didn't want to tell Coulson that her reaction just now was just a knee-jerk reaction to hearing the name of this "perfect" combination of Chinese and Western stores, and coughed, Melinda smiled and said, "No, I haven't heard of it at all." ”

Nodding, Coulson continued: "When Zhang Biao died, only the carotid artery of his neck was severed, and there were no other wounds, which did not match the triad members who were killed earlier, and he was not tortured before he died. ”

Melinda pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe this Zhang Biao's death has nothing to do with the whole thing, it's another case?" ”

"You won't say that after reading this!" Coulson put a document in Melinda's hand and said, "Zhang Tianshi Baibao Store used to be Zhang Qi's shop, and this Zhang Biao is Zhang Qi's own family. ”

"Zhang Qi was killed, Zhang Biao died in his shop, do you think this is a coincidence?"

Melinda shook her head, although there are coincidences, but this is definitely not a coincidence, obviously there is some kind of connection between the whole thing.

"This person, Zhang Qi's former younger brother, after Zhang Qi died, he took over the shop, and no longer a peripheral member of the triad, just ran the shop with peace of mind." Coulson pointed to a photo: "It's just that this store can't support him." ”

Reaching out to pick up the photo placed on the information sheet, Melinda glanced at the name next to her: Liao Yuan!
