Chapter 267: Busy Anthony
To be honest, the information that Iron Rider gave to Coulson was indeed a little shocking to him, because it was a bit far from the answer given to him by the experts in their bureau.
"Are you sure? May," Coulson muttered for a moment, and couldn't help but confirm again at the pale and frail Iron Knight on the hospital bed.
It's not that Coulson doesn't believe in Iron Rider, the key is that the investigation results that were sent to him at that time were deduced and summarized by many S.H.I.E.L.D. experts based on the surveillance video left behind, and the authority is quite guaranteed, and their tracking direction during this period of time has always been based on this investigation results. Now the Iron Rider has overturned all this with a word, and no one will be reconciled.
"I'm sure, I've dealt with her personally, and I'm in the best position," Iron Knight had already gotten some information from the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who stayed behind to guard him, and naturally understood why Coulson asked, "While it's true that her makeup and acting can be fake, don't forget, I'm also a woman." Many women have small habits and small actions that cannot be hidden. ”
"Understood, I'll follow the dots." Coulson took a deep look at the iron rider in front of him and nodded seriously.
Compared to the words of those experts in S.H.I.E.L.D., he actually believes in his old partner more. And according to the words of those experts, after checking for so long, there are no results, so if you change your thinking, you will not find anything. But to be honest, the strength of the iron rider does make others ignore her many times, she is actually a woman, a woman with a strong sixth sense.
With so much to deal with, Coulson saw that the Iron Rider had fallen back into a deep sleep, so he got up and instructed the agents left behind to take care of it, and left the hospital.
In the car, Coulson stared at the regressing scenery outside the car window and pondered:
"Woman? Or a woman who has changed her body so that even a group of experts can't recognize her? There aren't many that can do that. Don't...... Could it be the Demonic Woman? But if it was her, why would she kill that person? And, how did she bypass the mutant defenses on the Branch's side? It's nerve-wracking......"
Of course, Anthony's side didn't know that Coulson's side was going further and further on the road to find the truth because of a piece of information that was not considered wrong. Even if he knew, he didn't have time to pay attention to the other party. Because he has other things to do on his side, like dealing with Hydra, building momentum for his dad to enter politics, and the annual Washington arms show a week later.
"Anthony Stein, I thought I had overestimated you as much as possible, but I didn't expect to underestimate you as a person," Crossbones looked deeply at the person in front of him in the communicator screen.
Although as early as when this task was handed over to Anthony, the people of Hydra knew that they might not be able to overcome this task. But what they didn't expect was that Anthony could finish it so quickly, not even a day.
You must know that the Winter Soldier who escaped is the best of the Winter Soldiers in their hands, the ace of aces. The two elite squads under him who were responsible for chasing this person were not caught, and he didn't expect it to be so simple in Anthony's hands.
Anthony was non-denied about Crossbones, in his opinion, the Winter Soldier was just bullying ordinary people and mutants who had not received special training, and for the real masters, as long as they were serious, they were not a problem at all. So Anthony wasn't excited at all about crossbones praising himself for this kind of thing.
Of course, Crossbones is also not because Anthony has beaten the Winter Soldier to look up to him. After all, S.H.I.E.L.D. has relevant transformers, and Hydra will naturally not have them on its side. The reason why he thinks highly of Anthony is mainly because Anthony was able to lock on to the position of the Winter Soldier in such a short period of time, and did not give the other party a chance to escape.
You know, when they trained the Winter Soldiers, they were trained according to the Super Agent Assassin side. The Winter Soldier may not be the strongest of their Hydra, but he's definitely the toughest. If you can't hit it and run away immediately, it's not a joke.
"All right, Mr. Bullock," Anthony chuckled, shaking the wine glass in his hand, "You specifically contacted me, probably just to talk to me about this." ”
"What? Can't you? Crossbone raised an eyebrow.
“…… Of course," Anthony played, "but what's the point of saying it through the screen, Mr. Bullock, if you want, I have the door open for you at any time at Caesar's Palace, you can come to my side in person, and we can talk face to face together." ”
"There will be a day," Crossbones glanced deeply at Anthony with an exaggerated expression, and then said lightly, "I heard that you have recently changed all of your father's information. ”
"It's a correction," Anthony said, holding up a finger to emphasize, "I'm just having someone correct an error in the official file or something." ”
Crossbones looked at Anthony, who was seriously emphasizing on the other side, and couldn't help but smile lightly: "Okay, it's a correction." So Mr. Anthony, what do you do to correct these files? ”
"Is this what the organization wants to ask?" Anthony raised an eyebrow.
"No," Crossbones smiled, "it's my personal curiosity." ”
Anthony took a sip of red wine and smiled, "Then I should have the right not to answer." ”
"Of course," Crossbones said, his eyes flickering, "but even if you don't say it, I can guess." You want your father to go into politics, right? ”
"Can't you?" Anthony squinted.
"Of course," Crossbones said, "but politics is a thing that is difficult for ordinary people to play, and I don't know if Mr. Anthony needs help, and the organization has a lot of resources in this regard." ”
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Combined with the other party's words and expressions, Anthony instantly understood why Crossbone contacted his side today. It seems that with the improvement of Anthony's strength and his ability to do things, Hydra decided to tilt some resources on Anthony's side to increase Anthony's sense of belonging to Hydra.
"No need," Anthony said with the same pointful smile, "The organization's resources are not easy to use in this regard, otherwise there will be a real problem, and everyone will be in trouble." ”
Crossbones also instantly understood that Anthony was referring to the mayor of New York City who was trained by Hydra, so he pondered for a moment, then stopped talking about this topic, and was ready to hang up the communicator after a few casual conversations.
At this moment, Jeff knocked on the door and entered Anthony's office, and saw that Anthony seemed to be talking to someone, and couldn't help but stop talking.
"It's okay, this is an old friend of mine who is very close to me, don't shy away from him, just say," Anthony felt that there was no need to avoid crossbones when it came to arranging for Jeff to do, so he commanded directly.
"Yes, boss," Jeff replied, and began to report, "The head of the department at the New York FBI who has been clinging to Mr. James's file seems to have been unlucky lately, and has just been summoned by the Lord because of a sudden myocardial infarction and then missed the best time for treatment. ”
Although Anthony has said that there is no need to shy away from crossbones, but there are outsiders, and Jeff's answer can't help but be more subtle than usual.
"That's right," Anthony said with a look of pity, "I'm really jealous of the talent, why did he leave at such a young age." Alas~"
Crossbones were speechless on the other side of the communicator, they were all foxes on the mountain, talking to me about fasting. The fool can also hear that you are the one who did it, and you are still acting in front of me here.
"His family must be in pain," Anthony asked, playing with the wine glass in his hand.
Jeff was slightly stunned, and quickly nodded and said, "Yes, boss." His wife, as well as his two children, were sad. ”
"Nothing drastic?" Anthony squinted.
"Not really," Jeff naturally knew what the old driver's boss meant, so he continued to reply, "They seem to have been separated for a long time, and it is said that it is because the supervisor seems to have another woman outside." ”
"That's a pitiful thing," Anthony muttered for a moment, and then continued, "When the funeral is held, you will go for me, and remember to bring the money and wreaths, and tell them for me, so that they can mourn and change." ”
"Understood, boss." Jeff answered and left the room.
"You're so kind, Anthony Stein," Crossbones played.
"Kindness?" Anthony's eyes flickered, and he said lightly: "I have already lost this kind of thing, I just don't want to make trouble for myself now." ”
