Chapter 70: Fighting for Themselves
"That woman just now, something is wrong."
"yes, I know."
"I know how you're still re-"
"Because I find that she is no longer a stranger to me."
“?”
"Go back to bed, it's not too early."
Bathed in the early morning sun, Gao Li, who was lying on the bed, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, and the picture of last night was replayed in his mind over and over again. Lilith's every move, every expression, was separated by Gao Li like a movie frame by frame.
But I still didn't find any anomalies.
Could it be that Lilith has already received demonic powers? Just as the Lord is to himself?
After the unexpected meeting last night, this question has been hovering in Gao Li's mind and has never faded.
The itinerary that was originally scheduled to leave today has also changed. Instead of aimlessly chasing hypothetical assumptions that don't know if they exist, it is better to focus on the reality that already exists in front of us.
Vanessa is convinced that nothing can go wrong with her magic, which means that there is a demonic aura in the city of Houston.
Early this morning, Vanessa came to Gao Li again, saying that she had used the compass again as soon as she woke up in the morning, and the compass pointed in a completely opposite direction to the villa where Lilith was last night.
In view of this, Gao Li urged Bobby, who was still in New York, to quickly send over some of the information that had been collected.
Things turned out unexpectedly, although three years was enough time for Gao Li to forget about his relationship with Lilith. But when he found out that Lilith seemed to be involved in the demon vortex, Gao Li instinctively wanted to exclude Lilith from the range of suspects.
However, Vanessa's magic is too directive, and last night's face-to-face contact with Lilith left Gao Li without even a chance to rule her out.
Let's hope things don't turn out as badly as I thought they would.
With a sigh, the computer screen next to him suddenly lit up, and the receipt information of a file compressed package appeared in the lower right corner of the screen.
Gao Li, who came to the spirit, clicked on the email, downloaded the compressed package, unzipped, and browsed folder by folder.
The first is the folder named "Lilith Erwin".
Lilith Erwin, female, 27 years old. Born in Texas and raised in New York..............."
…………………………………………………………
"Boss, here's what you're asking for."
"Put it here, I'll see later."
The henchman obediently put the folder in his hand on Lilith's desk and consciously exited the office. Lilith, who had taken a shower from the lounge, sat down in a chair with her wet hair draped and picked up her papers to read.
"Eddie Rosicky, male, 25 years old............... "One eye and ten lines" is an ability that has given Lilith after her physical fitness has been transformed by the power of the water demon Basha.
Lilith, who was an extremely fast reader, quickly finished reading the not very thick piece of information in her hand.
It's normal, and it's normal. It is the same as the Gao Li in Lilith's impression.
Perhaps the only thing that surprised Lilith was that the big carrot that used to be so hearty would be for a woman named Felicity Smock?
Remembering that the girl who followed Gao Li last night without saying a word, and was called a "New York Daily News student" by Gao Li, the corners of Lilith's mouth raised a sneering arc.
Oh, man.
After closing her eyes and reading the information, Lilith fell into deep thought.
Judging from the available information, it is impossible for Gao Li to have anything to do with her affairs. But that doesn't explain why Gao Li was in the traitor's villa last night.
Certainly, there must be something abnormal, it's just that I haven't noticed it yet.
took the information and put it in front of him again, and looked at it word by word, and a piece of information that she had skipped before came into view - there had been a conflict with Jin He's subordinates, and the surveillance video showed that Gao Li had been blocked by Jin He's men. The surveillance video that should have existed disappeared, and it is impossible to restore the specific situation when Gao Li was blocked.
"That's it." Throughout Gao Li's 25 years of life, the only doubt that Lilith can feel is only this point.
The traditional surveillance video is gone, and the average person can no longer know what happened at that time. But Lilith is different.
When she first appeared on the Texas gangster stage two years ago, she came into contact with an organization that claimed to protect the world - S.H.I.E.L.D.
Coulson, who wanted to reason with Lilith and fool her into joining S.H.I.E.L.D., really became reasonable in the end. There is no other reason, the power is too strong.
No matter how strong Lilith is, she is just one person, and the process of controlling the entire dark world of Texas and ascending to the throne is indispensable to the operation behind S.H.I.E.L.D. In return, or rather as a partner, Lilith would naturally help S.H.I.E.L.D. with things that they couldn't easily handle.
Now, Lilith is able to use S.H.I.E.L.D.'s own satellite surveillance footage to find out what she wants to know.
He took out a special cell phone from the hidden compartment behind the bookshelf and dialed the only number left in the phone book.
"What's the matter?"
On the other end of the phone, Nick Fury's calm voice came.
……………………………………………………………
Over New York, S.H.I.E.L.D. mothership. Director Nick Fury hung up the phone in his hand and turned around and pressed the button on the headset.
"Natasha come here."
"Yes." A second later, Black Widow Natasha's voice echoed in Nick Fury's ears. In just two or three minutes, a heavily armed Natasha appeared in front of Nick Fury.
"The original mission is canceled, go to Texas to continue to spy on Gao Li, and that Lilith Erwin."
"Continued surveillance?" Natasha frowned: "Is there something wrong with Ward?" After Natasha reported the news of Gao Li's departure from New York to Nick Fury, the wise and martial director withdrew Natasha with a wave of his hand, and replaced him with a low-level agent to go to Texas to monitor Gao Li's eating, drinking, and sleeping.
After all, it's a waste to let Natasha do the job of monitoring people so idle, isn't it. As the successor of capitalism under the banner of Stars and Stripes, Nick Fury abhorred the waste of resources.
"No, it's just that I think something that might happen next is beyond his cognitive authority, and I trust you more than he does."
"yes, I see." Regardless of how much of what the King of Agents said in front of her was true, Natasha's superficial work was quite adequate. I don't know if I really understand or pretend to understand, so I will accept it happily first.
"If something unexpected happens, I allow you to make your own decisions without being given orders."
"Unexpected? What does this mean? Natasha's heart sank, and she subconsciously asked.
"Crises only happen because they can't contain them, understand, Agent Romanoff?"
"Understood............ After staring at Nick Fury for a long time, Natasha turned to leave...............
