25. Take on the accompanying task again
There is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and all the human remains that fall to the ground are in sight.
There was still a look of fear in their eyes, and they couldn't understand why the thrilling scene of the previous moment had turned into a feast for the demons of hell.
Eames rummaged through the wallets of several spectators, found his ID cards, and said, "Japanese-Indian, a legitimate businessman." And then there are American businessmen, French businessmen and Russian businessmen. ”
After Natasha Romanlov pulled up the female mercenary, she turned her head and said, "It's not surprising, the arena is just something for them to cheer up, they have come here thousands of miles to trade with the 'snake man'. ”
"Snake Man!" Li Yue put away the pistol and asked, "This is the second time I've heard you say this name, is he your target this time?" Or is it an important part? ”
After Natasha Romanloff handed over the female mercenary to Eames, she straightened her hair, looked at Li Yue and asked, "Aren't you able to deduce?" Why don't you just deduce it and ask me instead? ”
"Out of respect for the senior sister." Li Yue smiled and said, "I don't think you would be willing to let me deduce your mission, or the past. ”
"Your mouth is sweet." Natasha Romanloff smiled and said, "Have you heard of Japanese legends?" Yaki Orochi. ”
"I've heard a little, but I'm not familiar with it."
"It's enough to have heard. A few months ago, a mutant appeared in Japan, who grew slowly, was highly venomous, and because of the unpredictable changes in the process of mutation, he possessed the scales of snakes and the ability to communicate with snakes.
In the context of the legality of Japanese yakuza and the reverence for Japanese mythology, he founded an organization called the Snake Gang, and his subordinates called him 'Snake Man', saying that he was the heir of Yaki Orochi.
Originally, it was just a very simple mutant case that could be solved by the SWAT team.
But while investigating the 'snake man', we unearthed another piece of information, the 'snake man' was able to purify what we called the drug, and mixed it with new hallucinogenic substances.
Through the study of hallucinogenic substances, we have discovered something that cannot be ignored. ”
"What is it?"
"The snake man's talent is not awakened, but someone is behind it, turning an ordinary human into a mutant. And not with the known elements that the earth has. ”
Li Yue raised his hand and rubbed his lips and said, "So the headquarters thinks this should be an alien invasion case?" ”
Natasha Romanloff shrugged and said, "Not long after the Snake Man formed the Snake Gang, parasites began to appear near Tokyo, which is too coincidental in terms of timing.
The descendants of the mythical Yaki Orochi appeared on the front feet, and alien products on the back feet were rampant everywhere. ”
It is reasonable to doubt it, but what is the strength of the snake man, whether it exceeds Reinhardt's response range, etc., are all within Li Yue's consideration.
While Li Yue was thinking, Natasha Romanloff said, "So, as you can see, even if I have reached ten consecutive victories, the snake man will not come to summon me, and the investigation has entered a bottleneck. I need your help. For the sake of our colleagues and classmates. ”
Li Yue raised his head and looked at Natasha Romanlov, frowned slightly and said, "Price, ma'am." This quest isn't on our bucket list, which means Snake Man isn't a figure our level can handle.
Taking the risk to help you can do us a lot of harm.
So I think that even if you are my senior sister and colleague, you or the headquarters should pay us a sum of money.
Not to mention this female mercenary, she is not worth the lives of me, Eames and Reinhardt, the three core members of the base. ”
Natasha Romanloff seemed to have anticipated this situation for a long time, shrugged and said, "You are really a bargaining man, not a gentleman at all.
All right...... The price offered by the Japanese side for this mission is 10 million US dollars, and if the mission is successful, you and I will split it in half, how about it. ”
Li Yue stared at Natasha Romanoff's eyes seriously when she spoke, and after she finished speaking, she said without hesitation, "I refuse this proposal, I only provide the coordinates of the snake man, how to catch him is your business."
I only need two tiers of income. ”
Natasha Romanoff's smile instantly cooled, exuding a dangerous aura, and the giant sword in Reinhardt's hand also clenched.
But after a moment, Natasha Romanloff smiled and said, "How did you see my intentions, I'm sure I played very well." ”
Li Yue shrugged his shoulders and pursed his lips and said, "Eyes, ma'am." Eyes don't deceive people, and no matter how good they can disguise, there will be a momentary delay in reacting. Ordinary people may not be able to observe it, but I can.
The first time you spoke to me, your eyes unconsciously glanced at me on stage, when you just spoke. All of them are reminding me that you have no malicious intent, but just when you said the snake man, your pupils suddenly emptied, although only slightly.
But I'm sure you know the horror of the snake man. ”
Natasha Romanloff slowly raised her hands and said, "Okay, I lost this psychological battle." As you said, two million dollars, you provide the coordinates of the snake man.
But I have to come back, a mercenary. ”
Li Yue stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "Deal." ”
"Deal."
After the transaction with Natasha Romanloff was completed, Li Yue took Reinhardt and Eames out of the secret room, and after finishing the guy guarding the door, the group walked into the crowd on the street as if nothing happened.
"We really don't help Ms. Natasha Romanlov? It's really not a gentleman's act to let her face the horrible guy alone. Eames said with a frown.
Gentleman? Come on, he, Li Yue, is one of the struggling beings at the bottom, whoever loves a gentleman will go. What's more......
Li Yue smiled and shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is indeed no such task on the task list, which means that there are two possibilities, the first is that this is an internal matter of S.H.I.E.L.D., ordinary agents are not qualified to know, and the second is that there are tasks in the task list that we can't touch."
Considering that there are even SSS-level missions on the list, this means that this matter is an internal issue of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Since it is an internal problem, as subordinates, we should not ask more and participate more. ”
Eames scratched the back of his head and asked, "So those words just now were the boss lying to Ms. Natasha Romanoff?" ”
"Half and half, I said that I would never give up deduction during the mission, so I was in a state of deduction just now. She's acting, and I'm not.
However, I will really help her do the matter of the snake man, after all, $2 million is not a small amount, is it? Li Yue walked forward with his arms crossed and said with a smile.
