Chapter 024: Seventh-level agent

"It seems that the little junior brother knows us very well." Alex said helplessly, "This is indeed the biggest problem we have to face at the moment...... But there are some things that can't be stopped if you want to, and to paraphrase the story, it's called the general trend. ”

"We exist only to prevent humanity from being wiped out by the threat posed by the 'supernatural powers', and as for the principle of secrecy, it is only because most people may not be able to accept the sudden subversion of cognition for a while, that we need to cover it up for the time being."

"However, the world is undergoing a drastic upheaval, with reality and fantasy overlapping, myth and technology colliding...... What people will see will become more and more subversive, and if one day we can no longer continue to hide, it means that the change has entered the white heat, and it makes little difference whether it is hidden or not. Alex shrugged.

"It seems that Fifth Senior Brother, you also have some foresight for this?" Zhang Taibai said.

"Don't talk about this, junior brother, since you know us so well, please be considerate of senior brother, there are some things that I don't want to talk about more." Alex said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was negligent, I shouldn't make it difficult for you, Senior Brother Five, let's stop this topic." Zhang Taibai didn't want to embarrass Alex either.

'S.H.I.E.L.D.' itself has strict confidentiality rules, and Alex, as a member of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.', can say that this step is already a slight violation.

Zhang Taibai naturally understood this, so he didn't continue to embarrass Alex.

"But I have one last question that I am more curious about, if I can answer it, Fifth Senior Brother, you will answer, if it is inconvenient, you will not ask me." Zhang Taibai said suddenly.

"You say."

"I don't know what level you are, Fifth Senior Brother?" Zhang Taibai asked curiously.

"You kid-" Alex smiled dumbly, then quickly gestured to Zhang Taibai, then stood up and said, "Okay, the rest of the senior brothers are probably coming soon, I'll go to the door to take a look, you guys are here to talk first." ”

With that, Alex was already walking towards the door.

Only Yu Yi and Rex were left in a daze, and Zhang Taibai with a thoughtful face.

Yu Yi didn't know about the existence of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.' before, or did he just hear Zhang Taibai talk about it and knew that there was such a secret department in secret, and although Rex knew about 'S.H.I.E.L.D.', HE ONLY KNEW THE NAME OF THIS DEPARTMENT AND A LITTLE GENERAL SITUATION.

Therefore, Zhang Taibai's conversation with Alex, he was also confused when he heard it.

"It's even higher than I thought, the fifth senior brother is only less than ten years older than me, is he already a seventh-level agent......" Zhang Taibai was surprised.

Although he had already guessed that Alex's level would not be low before he asked, the seventh-level answer still surprised him a little, after all, the seventh-level agent was basically already at the level where he could access the top secret of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.'.

If 'S.H.I.E.L.D.' is compared to a large corporation, Tier 10 agents are the chairman of the company, Tier 9 is a member of the board of directors, and Tier 7 and Tier 8 agents are equivalent to the executives of the company, and the day-to-day affairs of the company are basically handled by these two levels of agents.

Only when it comes to critical events will Level 9 and Level 10 agents be required to intervene.

As far as Zhang Taibai knows, the seventh-level agents, such as Agent May, Agent Hitwell, and Black Widow...... and so on, they are basically already the big shots of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.'. The difference between them and the Level 8 agents is simply the number of years of service or the lack of an opportunity.

In addition, the higher the level of the agent, the greater the autonomy.

In other words, the higher the rank, the more qualified you are to be capricious.

"This also explains why the fifth senior brother is not so rigid...... However, since there are fifth-level agents like Senior Brother who I have never heard of at all, this shows that there are indeed many more high-level agents of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.) than in the movies. Zhang Taibai speculated.

He was very strange, how could there be a huge 'S.H.I.E.L.D.' with less than a two-digit seventh-level agent, and an eighth-level agent who could count on one hand?

It's a semi-official organization that spans the globe.

Alex's self-disclosure also allowed Zhang Taibai to confirm some of his guesses.

While Zhang Taibai was thinking alone, Alex had already walked in from outside the box with his second senior sister Dong Xueqing and the rest of the senior brothers, interrupting his thoughts.

With the arrival of the brothers one after another, the box was also lively.

……

After eating and drinking, the brothers and sisters were also ready to go home.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is very important to the Chinese, but after all, it is still the United States, and today is not a specific holiday, and most of them have to go to work tomorrow.

Naturally, there will be no second half.

Because of the drinking, Zhang Taibai did not risk driving back by himself, but made a phone call to call someone to pick him up. Although with his current physical fitness, ordinary wine can be said to be a thousand glasses without getting drunk, but in case of a drunk driver who is checked by a card, it will be very troublesome.

Standing at the door of the restaurant, Zhang Taibai waved goodbye to his brothers and sisters.

Hmmm——!!

A burgundy car lay across in front of Zhang Taibai.

"Get in the car, boss." A familiar crisp sound came from the car.

"Thank you, Maitherine, I'm sorry to bother you so late." Zhang Taibai opened the car door and sat in, and said to the woman in the main seat at the same time.

The woman who came to pick him up was none other than the female employee of his store, Maitherine.

Zhang Taibai had actually told her before he came, because he knew very well that it was impossible to have a dinner like this without drinking.

"Boss, you are so polite, it's my honor to pick you up." Maitherine said with a grin.

"Your mouth is so sweet, is there some conspiracy?" Zhang Taibai quipped.

"I ran so far to pick up the boss you, and you actually think of me like this? Hum! Maitherin looked like he was angry, and he slammed the accelerator, and the little red car flew straight out.

"Eh, you girl will change her face if you say it...... Otherwise, I'll do you a favor next time, can you? Zhang Taibai said.

"That's what you said! I'm going to have a party with a few roommates tomorrow night, boss, you must come, if you don't come, you will break your promise! The grimacing Maitherling suddenly laughed again.

"It turned out that they were waiting for me here, I guessed correctly, there is really a conspiracy!"

"Hmph, even if it's a conspiracy, anyway, you've already agreed, if it's a man, you have to talk!" Maitherine smirked.

"Okay, count you ruthless!" Zhang Taibai said depressedly.

Seeing him like this, Maitherine smiled even more happily.

Zhang Taibai was just about to say something, but was suddenly interrupted by the ringtone of his mobile phone, and after he glanced at the caller ID, he was a little more colorful, and immediately made a quiet gesture to Maitherine.

"Don't talk yet, I'll answer the phone."

When Maitherin saw Zhang Taibai's reaction, he also knew the importance and immediately closed his voice.

“Hello?” Zhang Taibai picked up the phone.

"Shiro, where are you now?" The other end of the line asked.

"I'm on my way home, what's wrong?" Zhang Taibai said.

"Well, let's wait until you get back, I'm in your room right now." The other end of the line said again.

"What, you're with me?" Zhang Taibai was surprised for a moment, and then said, "Okay, then you wait for me, I'll be back soon, and I'll see you later-"

"Well, I'll see you later."
