25 The Colonel's suspicions
Four Seasons Hotel, London
Because the Four Seasons Hotel in New York left a good impression on Tang Shi, after coming to London, he still chose to stay at the Four Seasons Hotel. Unlike the luxury of New York, the Four Seasons Hotel in London has a gentlemanly feel, exuding an aristocratic temperament from the inside out.
Since the last explosion at Fort Claus, Tang Shi has not been in contact with Hydra, but has come to London. He's ready to get his hands on the X gene as soon as possible. After contacting the Strategic Science Corps, Tang Shi waited for the other party to come to the door.
He hadn't heard anything about the American team these days in London. The award ceremony in the original film was also not held, which made Tang Shi a little suspicious, should the American team die in the explosion.
But after thinking about it, the American team, as the protagonist, should not be so unlucky to die in Hungary, so the most likely explanation is that the American team had to disappear due to the serious injuries caused by the fight with Tang Shi. But that's okay, for that patriotic warrior who gave people a headache, Tang Shi was really in no mood to entangle with the other party.
Looking at the time, Tang Shi estimated that the people of the Strategic Science Corps should be almost there. Sure enough, within a few minutes, there was a knock on the door, Tang Shi changed his comfortable sitting posture, and said to the door, "Come in, the door is not closed"
The door opened, and a beautiful figure appeared. Tang Shi looked at each other and said with a chuckle, "Long time no see, Miss Carter"
Peggy came to Tang Shi angrily and grabbed Tang Shi's collar, "You bastard! ”
Tang Shi looked at her innocently, pretending to be puzzled, "Miss Carter, you are not a lady at all"
Peggy glared at Tang Shi viciously, and was about to give Tang Shi a little color to take a look, when a voice sounded behind her. "Stop Peggy!"
Tang Shi tilted his head sideways and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see an old man in a military uniform appear at the door, who was the commander of the Strategic Science Corps - Chester Phillips. The appearance of the old man in front of him made Tang Shi a little surprised. After the war, General Phillips was the most powerful support behind S.H.I.E.L.D. It can even be said that if it weren't for him, Nick Fury's desire to establish S.H.I.E.L.D. would be simply wishful thinking.
"Mr. Tang, I'm Chester Phillips, and I'll take full responsibility for this cooperation" Phillips, who walked in from the outside, was very polite, and Peggy reluctantly let go of Tang Shi under Phillips's reprimand. Tang Shi smiled and straightened his collar, and watched the elderly Phillips walk up to him and sit down, and the other party deliberately put the suitcase he was carrying on the coffee table.
"I know you, Colonel Phillips, the future General Phillips," Tang Shi said with a smile as he looked at the other party.
"General? Thank you Mr. Tang for your kind words. Phillips looked at Tang Shi playfully, and then said, "Sure enough, my identity is not a secret to Mr. Tang. ”
Tang Shi leaned back on the sand and looked at Phillips, "I know I should know, Mr. Colonel."
"This is the information that Mr. Tang got from Dr. Zola," Phillips continued, glancing at the briefcase beside Tang Shi, "Speaking of which, Mr. Tang actually killed Dr. Zola, which is really surprising."
Tang Shi sneered, "Just surprised?" I killed Zola, if it weren't for the super weapon, Mr. Colonel probably wouldn't want to cooperate with me at all."
Phillips smiled, and instead of refuting, he said, "You can't win a war with knights alone."
Tang Shi laughed when he heard this, "Yes, Mr. Colonel can see this clearly, which really surprises me."
Phillips laughed in agreement, but Peggy on the side was angry, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Since you broke with Hydra, why did you hurt Steve?" ”
Tang Shi looked at her with surprise, "Miss Carter, I'm afraid I'm mistaken, I and Hydra are not all the way, where did the break come from?" Besides, Dr. Zola died in front of the American team, and his research data is in your hands, do you think Hydra would prefer to believe who killed Zola? ”
There is almost no need to judge, this pot is on the back of the Americans. Peggy's teeth itched with hatred, "You bastard! ”
Tang Shitian shamelessly continued to tease the angry Peggy, "Thank you for the compliment, say hello to the American team on my behalf"
Seeing that Peggy was about to explode, Phillips said in a deep voice, "Okay, Peggy, it's important to get down to business"
"There's something I've always been curious about, Mr. Tang," Phillips said, turning his head to look at Tang Shi.
"What?"
"Why is it that the truth is buried so deeply, why is it that from beginning to end, we can only contact Mr. Tang alone? Maybe...... It's not an organization at all, it's Mr. Tang, and Mr. Tang thinks my guess is accurate? Phillips stared at Tang Shi's eyes, trying to see Tang Shi's panicked look in his eyes. Although his guesses are unreliable, against all impossibility, no matter how incredible what is left in the end, it must be true.
Tang Shi's eyes did not fluctuate, and his body tone was very flat, "Because the world is about to change, even ten industrial revolutions cannot be compared." And Diting doesn't want to miss it. As to why no other members were found, it seems that Mr. Colonel should have asked the CIA. I understand the doubts of Mr. Colonel, but that's all. Our organization has never had to prove its existence to anyone, not even the U.S. government."
Phillips aggressively asked, "But as partners who are about to cooperate, shouldn't the two sides be honest with each other?" ”
"Partner? No, we're just trading with people. Do you want to know more about the family that sells vegetables when you go to the market to buy vegetables? I don't think Mr. Colonel would have done that. So as long as the price is right, what does it matter if you don't know it?"
Phillips' eyes were obscure, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, then we'll talk about the matter, let's talk about the deal now"
Tang Shi smiled and bowed his head, touched the briefcase beside him, and said, "I'll take a look at what I want first."
Phillips cast a color at Peggy, who walked over to the coffee table without squinting and removed a key from his wrist. Then Phillips also took a key from his coat pocket, and the two keys were inserted into the socket together, and they turned at the same time, only to hear a click, and a cipher disk popped out of the suitcase.
Phillips did not shy away from it, and directly entered the password in front of Tang Shi, and after everything was done, the lid of the suitcase automatically popped up and opened. Phillips pointed to the suitcase and said to Tang Shi, "Mr. Tang, please"
Tang Shi looked at the suitcase that was bubbling with cold air, and there were almost twenty X gene injections densely placed, Tang Shi frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at Phillips, "Why is it so much?" ”
"This is already one of the few remnants of the Strategic Science Corps, Mr. Don," Phillips said. ”
Looking at Phillips's expression, it didn't seem to be fake, and Tang Shi had no choice but to give up. And to tell the truth, Tang Shi previously estimated that the U.S. government could provide 10 X-gene injections. After all, this is not the post-war period, let alone the end of the century, and it is difficult for the government to effectively monitor incognito mutants.
Picking up a needle, Tang Shi pretended to look at it, only to see a bright yellow liquid flowing in the transparent injection, and surprisingly, none of these injections were exactly the same color, and it seemed that they were extracted from different mutants.
"Without annotations, how can I tell what abilities each of them has?" Tang Shi asked in surprise.
Hearing this, Phillips pressed the button on the suitcase, and then a booklet with some test tubes, needles and other experimental props appeared in front of him. Handing the booklet to Tang Shi and pointing to the needle, he went and said, "There are numbers at the bottom of the injections, and each number corresponds to each one on the booklet. Basic information and precautions are recorded in the booklet. ”
It's quite intimate, Tang Shi said secretly in his heart, opened the booklet in his hand, and looked at it casually. Suddenly his gaze paused slightly, and there was a familiar name on the booklet, Logan Howlett. Pointing to Wolverine's name, Tang Shi asked, "How did you collect his genes?" ”
Phillips glanced at the booklet in some surprise, and then said, "We didn't collect it, it was accidentally discovered when he was donating blood during the war." ”
"Donating blood? So where is Logan now? Tang Shi asked.
"We are also looking for him, but unfortunately, according to the battle report, in the battle of Polbano, Logan disappeared, and we estimate that he is very likely to be killed." Phillips said with regret.
Tang Shi chuckled when he heard this, "Trust me, Mr. Colonel, Logan won't die so easily" After that, he closed the suitcase and stretched out his hand to Phillips and the two, "Key"
Peggy glanced at Phillips, who nodded slightly. So Peggy reluctantly threw the key directly on the coffee table. Phillips picked up Peggy's keys and, along with his own, put both keys into Tang Shi's hands.
Tang Shi flicked the key, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and threw the briefcase beside him directly towards Peggy, "This is all the information about the Hydra Super Weapon, and it should be the last information." ”
After looking at the briefcase's information, Peggy nodded at Phillips, who got up with satisfaction and said, "The matter is over, I won't bother and say goodbye to Mr. Tang." ”
Tang Shi sat on the sofa and nodded very arrogantly, "Walk slowly"
