Chapter 55: Rorschach's Response
Rorschach had already been mentally prepared for the leakage of his tinder source technology, and Coulson just came a little earlier than Rorschach expected, but it was still under control.
With Tony's help, S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't dare to take too drastic action against Rorschach. Otherwise, even if Stark is a little worse than before, it can still make an organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. that can't appear in front of the public anxious.
What's more, Rorschach has just done Osborne and Hammer, two arms dealers, a great favor, and can also ensure his own safety by borrowing a little of their power.
"Mr. Rorschach, we are certainly willing to choose to cooperate, but only if we have an explanation. You can transform a car into a robot, what exactly is that? Or to put it more bluntly, are you a mutant? Coulson asked.
"It doesn't make sense to ask a question, whether my abilities come from alien technology, or ancient civilizations, or mutants, as you said. This doesn't make any difference to the cooperation we're going to talk about next. All you need to know is what I can give you and what price you can pay, and that's enough. Rorschach said categorically.
Rorschach didn't plan to elaborate on the origin of the spark, and even if Coulson caught him and tortured him, he wouldn't reveal it.
"Okay, I'm not going to mention that for now. So Mr. Rorschach, what can you offer us? ”
Rorschach casually threw the sensor bracelet on his wrist to Coulson, and under Rorschach's guidance, Coulson activated the function of the sensor glove, and pieces of armor covered Coulson's arm.
After testing the effects of the Tinder Equipment, Coulson's eyes lit up. If this equipment can be mass-produced, the strength of S.H.I.E.L.D. will be even higher, and the survival rate of agents will be greatly improved when they go on missions.
However, when Coulson was excitedly about to say something, Rorschach interrupted him and said: "Don't open your mouth yet, I know the urine nature of your S.H.I.E.L.D., take it back and study it slowly, make sure that I can't crack my technology, and then ask your leader for instructions on what to exchange for." I'll wait here at Tony, I can't run away. ”
All of Coulson's words were directly blocked back by such a sentence.
Knowing that he couldn't gain anything by staying here, Coulson prepared to leave. Since a sensitive person like Tony is involved, how to deal with Rorschach still has to consult the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. to decide.
"Mr. Rorschach, Melinda will contact you in my place in the future." Before leaving, Coulson finally introduced Rorschach to the unsmiling female agent beside him.
"Hello, you can call me Mei." Melinda said to Rorschach in Chinese.
It turned out to be a fellow countryman, and Rorschach was a little surprised. However, he didn't finish watching Marvel-related movies and TV series before he crossed over, so it's not surprising that there are people he doesn't know.
"Hello, I hope there will be good news the next time you come." Rorschach said politely.
After waiting for the two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to leave, Tony said to Rorschach, "If you really want to cooperate with them, S.H.I.E.L.D. has long wanted my Ark reactor technology, but you don't really need to pay attention to it." They can only pay lip service. ”
"Tony, cooperation is for sure, but not directly with S.H.I.E.L.D." Rorschach said.
"What are your plans?"
"Tony, do you know any members of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Security Council?" Rorschach asked suddenly.
"I don't know, but it's not difficult to get to know, which one are you looking for?"
"Of course, the one from China." Rorschach affirmed.
Coulson didn't know what Rorschach was up to, and drove his modified vintage car from the nineties to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, while Melinda sat in the co-pilot's seat.
"May, what do you think of Rorschach?" Coulson said to Melinda.
"All I can say is that he is indeed Chinese. In other words, he has lived in the Chinese region since he was a child. His language habits and some subtle gestures are indeed of Chinese origin. Melinda said.
"But we can't find any information about him, how can he be in Afghanistan? We don't know anything about him, and our friends in the East have not found out who he is. Coulson had always been curious about Rorschach's origins, but he could tell that Rorschach was not that kind of dangerous person, so there was room for negotiation just now.
"I don't know, but I can launch some connections over there, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s power in the East is too weak, and we don't know how much of the information coming through the members of the Security Council is true." Melinda said.
Coulson felt that this was necessary, and after seeing the function of the Sensor Glove, he even thought that the secrecy level of all Rorschach's information should be raised to level eight or higher.
"In this way, the director still wants me to continue to follow up, and I must be promoted." S.H.I.E.L.D. seventh-level agent Coulson couldn't help but smile.
However, he didn't know that his plan would soon be completely meaningless.
Just after they left, Rorschach was able to get in touch with a member of the Security Council through Tony's connections. The council member, who represents the interests of the great powers of the East, had a three-hour video meeting with Rorschach.
Tony, on the other hand, has no interest in the conversation between the two, and in his opinion, the wisdom in his own head is the most important thing. As long as he has enough money and technology, he doesn't even care about the president of the United States.
The meeting ended with the Security Council member's remark: "Comrade Rorschach, the Organization will not fail you."
Rorschach breathed a sigh of relief, and the next thing probably didn't need him to worry about.
When Coulson finally returned to the Trident building at the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, sorted out the relevant information, and planned to report the situation about Rorschach to Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury said to him first: "The information about Rorschach has all been upgraded to level nine. ”
Coulson was happy for a while, could he say that he could be promoted two levels in a row? However, Nick Fury's next sentence made him look disappointed.
"In the future, I will handle the affairs of Rorschach personally." Nick Fury said to Coulson.
"What happened, what turned out like this?" Coulson asked.
This was completely unexpected, and it was only a matter of hours for the situation to turn out like this. The sensor gloves, Coulson just threw them in the lab to find someone to study.
Nick Fury didn't answer Coulson's question because he received a request for video communication.
Those who can directly contact Nick Fury will not be ordinary people. It's just that when Nick Fury opens the communication, what appears on the screen is an inconspicuous-looking Chinese.
In Coulson's memory, he had no impression of this man, and he certainly wasn't a political figure in any country.
However, after meeting this person, Nick Fury said in a rare formal tone: "Mr. Zheng Xian, I didn't expect you to come to me in person." ”
