Chapter 188: Mystery Proposal
Just as Zhang Taibai and the others were chatting warmly, Laura brought another guest.
There is something peculiar about this guest...... From the cane in his hand that did not stop exploring in front of him, and the huge sunglasses on his face that did not take off when he entered the room, it was not difficult to guess the identity of his blind man.
Seeing his appearance, Zhang Taibai and Skye stood up at the same time.
"Big Brother Matt? Why are you here. Skye's tone was slightly surprised.
Needless to say, this invisible visitor is one of Zhang Taibai's few friends - Matt Murdoch, who is also a well-known underground hero in New York 'Daredevil'.
Zhang Taibai, Skye, and Matt have all lived in the same orphanage for different reasons, and they all know each other, of course, Skye and Matt's relationship is far from being as close as Zhang Taibai.
However, Skye was still pleasantly surprised to see his childhood friend again.
After coming out of the orphanage, she had met Matt a few times, but it had been several years since the closest one, and it was a little surprise to see her again at this time.
"It's little Skye, it's been a long time." Matt smiled.
Although he can't see, his hearing is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and after hearing Skye's voice, even if he hasn't seen him for a few years, he can tell Skye's identity for the first time.
"Come and sit down, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Zhang Taibai smiled heartily and stepped forward to lift Matra to an empty chair beside him.
Skye also took the opportunity to introduce Matt to the rest of Coulson's team.
After learning that Matt, a blind man, was actually a lawyer, several people were in awe, and their eyes looked at Matt with a little admiration.
As we all know, in the United States, lawyers, doctors, and other professions are very difficult for even ordinary people to study, and it is undoubtedly even more difficult for blind people.
That alone was enough to make them look at Matt differently.
However, Zhang Taibai didn't call Matt to let Coulson and them look at each other differently.
After a brief greeting, Zhang Taibai suddenly asked Matt, "Matt, how did you think about my previous proposal?" β
As soon as Zhang Taibai's words came out, it naturally aroused the curiosity of Skye and Agent Coulson, but out of courtesy, they didn't interject rashly, just whispered to each other, and pricked up their ears by the way.
"Before I give an answer, I want to know why you have this thought? You should know my character. Matt didn't answer Zhang Taibai directly, but asked rhetorically with a deep groan.
"Because times are different."
Zhang Taibai crossed his hands and stood on the table, "I know you're not used to being restrained, and I shouldn't be the first to invite you, but I hope you can think about it rationally." β
"Three years ago, five years ago, you might have worked on your own, but now it's different."
"Also, I want you to take care of Skye on my behalf, their squad is already the best in terms of technology, but it is still a little short of strength in terms of strength." Zhang Taibai said, glancing at Skye and them.
Seeing that Zhang Taibai suddenly mentioned himself, Skye also heard something out of the strings from what he just said, and asked in surprise, "Brother Taibai, do you want Big Brother Matt to join our team?" β
Even Skye heard what Zhang Taibai meant, and the two old rivers and lakes, Agent Coulson and Agent Mei, naturally wouldn't fail to hear it.
Agent Mei frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Zhang Taibai's statement.
Because the current force of the Coulson team is the most powerful in her, even Agent Coulson is not as good as her, Zhang Taibai uses the team's force to talk about things, even if it is not deliberately aimed at her, she can't avoid it.
Although Agent Coulson was not as sensitive as Agent Mei's mind, he also showed a look of embarrassment, because he couldn't figure out why Zhang Taibai suddenly had the idea of letting a blind man join his team.
Even if this blind man is Skye's big brother and is inspired to become a lawyer, it doesn't mean that he is suitable for this team, does it?
S.H.I.E.L.D. agents don't need much legal support when they're out on duty.
Not only is it not necessary, but it often tramples on the law.
Except for some sensitive areas of international relations that they don't easily cross, the laws of ordinary people are basically meaningless to S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.
Even if they make mistakes, they will be judged and dealt with within S.H.I.E.L.D.
As a result, Agent Coulson never thought of recruiting a lawyer for the team, especially since the lawyer was blind......
It's really not that he discriminates against blind people, it's really that the profession of an agent doesn't fit well with blind people.
"No, waitβ"
Just as Agent Coulson was thinking about how to reject Zhang Taibai's kindness without hurting his feelings, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong.
Just now, before Zhang Taibai said that he wanted Matt to take care of Skye, he seemed to be saying that the biggest shortcoming of his team at present is the lack of force?
Why did Zhang Taibai specifically mention the lack of force of the team to this blind lawyer?
This is obviously not a casual remark.
"Is it ......" Agent Coulson looked at Matt suddenly, a familiar name popping into his mind.
While Agent Coulson was full of thoughts, Zhang Taibai smiled and said to Skye, "Yes, although Matt is a bit of a stinky fart, he still has nothing to say, if he is willing to join you, the safety index of your team will be much improved in the future, and I don't have to worry about you all the time......"
"Hey, I'm just sitting here, do you really want to speak ill of me in front of me?" Matt said angrily.
"Praise you." Zhang Taibai said with a smile.
"Horse, horse...... Big Matt is good? Hearing Zhang Taibai's confirmation, Sky suddenly became a little stammering, she was a little confused by Zhang Taibai's mysterious proposal.
Unlike Agent Coulson, Skye didn't know the identity of Zhang Taibai's transcendent, nor did he know what the big boss of the 'News Agency' that had just shocked Agent Coulson and them meant.
As for Zhang Taibai's level 8 clearance, she knew that it was because Zhang Taibai was the special assistant of a high-level agent of the 'S.H.I.E.L.D.', but she also didn't know what the special assistant meant.
These things are classified even in 'S.H.I.E.L.D.', and even mid-level agents like Simmons and Fitz are not qualified to know, and Skye has only just joined 'S.H.I.E.L.D.', so naturally he doesn't know.
So she has never regarded Zhang Taibai as an 'insider'.
In her eyes, Zhang Taibai is still the big brother of the rich man who runs a coffee shop leisurely.
She even felt that Zhang Taibai might not know what kind of dangerous incidents their team was usually facing.
As for Matt's skills?
This made Skye feel a little crying and laughing.
