Chapter 211: Clairvoyance
The next morning, Ling Xiao got up very early, he didn't have much to bring, and he had already taken them all to the car after a little packing.
I made four breakfasts, glanced at Daisy's room, put all four breakfasts in the microwave and warmed them, and Ling Xiao sat down on the dining table alone and ate them.
By the time Jane, Professor Shagway, and Daisy got up, it was getting dark, but by this time there was no trace of Ling Xiao in the small building, and only a farewell note was placed on the dining room.
Daisy said a few words with some complaints, and then went to the kitchen, took the breakfast that was still hot from the microwave, and brought it to the table with three cups of hot coffee, and ate it with Jane and Professor Shagway, who also looked bad.
After a quick breakfast, Daisy went back to her room alone to catch up on sleep. Lying on the bed, she took out her mobile phone, looked at a text message on it, and couldn't help but laugh.
However, Jane and Professor Shagway in the living room looked at each other, although Daisy tried her best to hide it just now, but her faltering steps between the walks could not hide from the two of them, they looked at each other, the two of them smiled helplessly, and continued to bow their heads and eat breakfast.
The car had just left the town not far away, and a black SUV was parked on the side of the road not far away, and a man in a black crisp suit leaned against the hood of the car, as if he had been waiting for something.
Seeing Coulson who appeared there, Ling Xiao was not surprised at all, slowly parked the pickup truck on the side of the road, he opened the door and walked out of the car.
"Morning, Coulson, why don't you sleep a little longer, it's just dawn!" Ling Xiao chuckled and looked at Coulson with a relaxed expression.
"I'm early, you're earlier, Ling." Coulson took off the sunglasses on his face, looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Why don't you stay in New Mexico for a few more days?" β
"There's no way, there's something going on in Los Angeles, so I have to go back early." Ling Xiao seemed helpless to spread his hands, but his eyes were staring directly at Coulson.
"Really?" Coulson looked at Ling Xiao, took a deep breath, and said with a solemn face: "Ling, what you said last time ......"
"Don't!" Ling Xiao stretched out his hand, interrupted what Coulson wanted to say, shook his head slightly, and said, "Coulson, there is something I have always wanted to ask you, do you know who this person is?" β
As he spoke, an image was thrown out of Ling Xiao's sleeve and flew lightly into Coulson's hand.
"This person once went to Los Angeles to investigate me after you and Miss Romanrove, this is the image I asked someone to draw according to the description of the eyewitness, can you help me take a look, do you know this person?" Ling Xiao stared straight at Coulson, he didn't say who the witnesses were, because he didn't want Professor Cooper to be involved in these things.
"What is this?" Coulson looked at the face on the image, although the painting was not very clear, but Coulson still recognized who it was at a glance, and after a moment of hesitation, Coulson looked at Ling Xiao with such an expression, sighed helplessly, and said: "This is Agent John Garrett, he may have been ordered by the director to investigate you." β
"Nick Fury has sent you and Black Widow to investigate me, is it possible that you are still not at ease, and you have to send a third person to investigate me?" Ling Xiao sneered on his face, and said with some disdain: "Coulson, you are also an old agent for many years, why are you still so naΓ―ve." Okay, I won't say more, you should be more careful, lest you be stabbed in the back by your own people. β
After saying that, Ling Xiao ignored Coulson, returned to the car, and drove directly along the highway west in the pickup truck.
Coulson looked at the distant car shadow, and with a hard grip on his palm, the image was directly pinched.
After standing in the wind and sand for a long time, Coulson drove towards the temporary base, and only a piece of wind and sand was left flying in the air on the desert plateau.
"John Garrett, clairvoyant, I didn't expect you to be the first to target me, I hope you don't come to mess with me, otherwise, I don't mind exposing the relationship between you and Hydra." Sitting in the pickup truck, Ling Xiao's face was full of sneers, a guy who pretended to be a ghost dared to hit him with attention, he was really looking for death.
Even though Ling Xiao had countless means in the past, but also S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra, together with the U.S. military, came to the door to find him trouble, he himself could leave at any time, but his relatives and friends in Los Angeles, as well as his property, were probably all destroyed.
There may even be deception, betrayal and other bad things, so he has always been cautious in his work and rarely reveals his identity.
But now it's different, a bigger threat has appeared in front of the U.S. government and S.H.I.E.L.D., what kind of place Asgard is, and how strong they are, these are all things that some big people urgently need to know.
What's more, there is also the legendary existence of the Rainbow Bridge, which can reach any place at any time, which makes some people uneasy day and night, tossing and turning.
In this case, whether it is S.H.I.E.L.D. or the U.S. government, it will not be easy to do anything to Ling Xiao, after all, in the battle of Antica Pointe Town, Ling Xiao's strength, as well as his friendship with Thor and others, will make some people very scruples, and they will not attack him easily.
Maybe Ling Xiao really has paranoia of being killed, since the memory of his previous life awakened, he always has an inexplicable anxiety and uneasiness in his heart, always worried that after his secret is exposed, it will attract people to covet, he is not afraid of the secret means at all, the only thing he is worried about is that others will frame him nakedly.
Once the U.S. government goes all out against someone, even if it's as strong as Hulk and Magneto, they're forced to flee in all directions; Not to mention them, even Professor Charles was forced not to use his powerful mental power casually, and even every time he used the brainwave amplifier, he had to file like S.H.I.E.L.D. for the record.
But the appearance of Thor has changed all this, and a world with ignorant attitudes and strong strength is the biggest threat to some people, and at this time, some internal contradictions are not so important.
This is especially evident when Nick Fury summons the relevant personnel to the Triqual Wing Building to assess Thor's case.
Melinda looked confused when she was first summoned, it was not normal for her, a Level 7 agent who had already taken a back seat, to participate in such a high-level meeting, but she had already understood it when she knew that Ling Xiao was also involved in the battle of Antica Pointe.
The moderator of this meeting was naturally Nick Fury, and the five people in attendance: Hill, Coulson, Hawkeye, Black Widow and Melinda.
At the beginning of the meeting, Nick Fury asks Coulson to give a detailed account of everything that happened in the small town of Anticapuente, especially everything Coulson knows about Thor and Asgard.
Hearing the names of Odin, Loki, Sif , Heimdall and other mythological characters, even if they had heard the mission briefing before, several people present couldn't help but change their faces.
When Coulson said that the Destroyer was powerful, Hawkeye, who was sitting on the side, clenched his fists fiercely, his performance in that battle was not ideal, although his bow and arrow were extremely accurate, but in front of the Destroyer, the power of the bow and arrow was not exerted at all, which made him very embarrassed.
It wasn't until the last time they saw Thor and his group of five people returning to Asgard on the Rainbow Bridge that everyone present couldn't help but gasp.
"Is the Rainbow Bridge really that powerful?" Natasha Romanov suddenly noticed that her voice was a little hoarse, and she knew these things best among all the people present, knowing that a large part of Russian mythology was evolved from the Nordic system, and as a Russian, she could not know.
