A week later, Mercer moved into his new villa, along with Melinda and Dana, and the relationship between the two surprised Mercer.

Peace, that unexpected peace, I thought that Dana must not have a good face for Melinda, but after the two met, they seemed very affectionate.

Meanwhile, Flint the Sandman also temporarily lives in the bedroom on the first floor.

Sitting on a black leather couch, Mercer and Flint sip beers, while Dana and Melinda clean up their things on the second floor.

"Flint, what do you think when I said I invested in you to start a renovation company?"

"Mr. Mercer, I'm worried that I won't be able to do it well, I have only been a decorator for a period of time in the past, and I don't know much about decoration, let alone the management company."

Flint looked a little nervous, what would happen to his daughter without Mercer, he would definitely become a wanted man, even if he wouldn't die, but he couldn't run away with his wife and daughter.

He always wanted to repay Mercer's kindness, even if he lost his life. Now that Mercer suddenly said that he wanted to be the owner of a renovation company, he was a little caught off guard.

"Don't worry about not doing well, I'll directly pay for a renovation company, and then you are responsible for helping me keep an eye on that side, anyway, it's good to take it step by step."

Flint hesitated for a long time, and then suddenly said, "Okay, Mr. Mercer, I will definitely do my best to do it!" ”

Mercer really didn't expect this renovation company to make money, the focus was to win over Flint, although Mercer didn't know what happened after the plot of "Avengers 1", but according to the later development, the world will definitely become more and more dangerous.

Fighting alone is not only tiring in many cases, but also easy to be stolen. Mercer carefully analyzed the plot of "Iron Man 1", and Tony Stark suffered because he didn't have a reliable helper, otherwise Pepper wouldn't have taken such a big risk.

Thor in "Thor 1" is completely different, not only with Asgard as the backing, but also with the support of those four comrades-in-arms during the battle, of course, whether these comrades are reliable or not is another story.

Mercer clearly knows that his shortcomings are that he lacks skills, and once he is dragged down, it is easy to be raided from his hometown, and Dana and now Melinda will be his weaknesses. If the sandmen could be on their side, it would be different.

Even if Mercer didn't have any worries, he didn't want to be isolated by the whole world, and even if he didn't die, it didn't mean anything to him.

Flint is definitely a very good combat force, and when Tony Stark becomes Iron Man, Mercer should have one more partner who can take care of each other.

As for the other superheroes or supervillains who will appear, it is difficult to say who will be friends and who will be enemies.

"Alex, Alex......"

"Ahh

Melinda and Dana, who came down from the upper floor, shouted at Mercer a few times, and Mercer finally came to his senses.

"Brother, what do you want?"

Dana asked, she really liked Melinda, at least much better than the Karen Parker she had been.

Although Melinda was a few years older than her brother and married, she was relieved to think about her brother's current situation.

"Think of something else, you're all packed?"

"Almost, I still have to move some things from the old apartment."

Melinda was wearing a tracksuit today, a bit like a couple with Mercer's, and she would have looked at Flint curiously, today was the first time she had seen this person.

"Flint, this is Melinda May, my girlfriend."

Mercer said that he knew that Melinda probably learned about Flint's identity from S.H.I.E.L.D., so he was curious about Flint.

"Melinda, this is Flint Mark, my good friend, the sandman on the news some time ago."

The Sandman is the nickname given to Flint by the media, which coincides with Mercer.

"Hello, Mrs. Mercer, uh, Miss May."

Flint looked a little embarrassed, I don't know if it was because he met Melinda, or because of Mercer's introduction, and the name he blurted out made Melinda blush for a long time.

"Alex, why don't you let Flint go to work at S.H.I.E.L.D.? I guess the director would be happy to accept him. ”

"S.H.I.E.L.D. work? Melinda, don't dig into my corner, and besides, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s wages are so low that Flint can't look down on them, right? ”

Mercer really can't complain about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s salary, and can't understand why so many people are willing to work for S.H.I.E.L.D.

If he knew that many of the people in S.H.I.E.L.D. were Hydra people later, he would probably understand.

“……”

Melinda didn't worry about money in the past, not because her ex-husband gave money, but because she had nowhere to spend it. Food, clothing, transportation, and accommodation are all handled by S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Mr. Mercer......"

"Flint, just call me by my name, or it will sound weird."

Mercer said that although he was used to being called Mercer, after all, the pronunciation was similar to his own name, but he was always called by other people's Mr. and Mr. and felt weird.

"Uh, Alex, what is S.H.I.E.L.D. that Miss May is talking about? Where do you also work? ”

"I've got a consultant there, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is a secret service organization, similar in nature to the FBI. By the way, do you remember the day I met you, there was a guy named Phil? He's a high-ranking agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. ”

"Oh."

Flint lost interest in an instant, except for Mercer, he was not interested in being a thug for others, not to mention that the salary was not high.

"Flint, you can help me inquire if there is a renovation company that is small in scale but has complete facilities and personnel, and then we can buy it directly."

"Okay, I'll do it!"

Flint was not a timid person, and now that his daughter's illness was settled, he had to pick himself up and work hard to support his family, after all, he couldn't rely on Mercer's help.

After Flint left, only the Mercers were left in the villa.

Dana took a bite of Mercer's pineapple fried rice and asked, "Melinda, do you have any other family?" ”

"My brother and I grew up in S.H.I.E.L.D., and he is also a member of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Melinda had a reminiscing expression, and it could be seen that Melinda's brother was not bad to her.

"Is there any fun about being an agent?"

"Well, it's not ......."

"Dana, concentrate on eating."

Mercer saw that Melinda's face was not good-looking, so she took a piece of pineapple and stuffed it into Dana's mouth. Dana also realized that she might have said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject.

Unlike Mercer's peaceful life, a new storm is brewing elsewhere.

……

Raccoon City is an obscure city in Connecticut, and what is unknown is that a pharmaceutical company called Ambrera has infiltrated the city from all angles, and a huge underground base has been built under the city - the hive.

"How's the experiment with the black light virus and the T virus?"

"It has been successful, the black light virus engulfs the T virus, and then forms a new characteristic."

"Does the Doctor know about this?"

"I don't know, all the trials are done by our own people."

"That's good, after success, collect enough black light virus as a backup, and then throw Prea to Europe, just enough to lead the S.H.I.E.L.D. investigation."

"Yes!"

One of the people who spoke was none other than General Randall of the Black Watch Force, and the Black Cauldron of the "Black Light Project" accident and the exposure of Hydra was carried by the dead Raymond McMulran, and General Randall was transferred to this company to take charge of the new Black Light Project.

……

S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, Office of the Director.

"Melinda and Alex Mercer are together?"

"Yes, Director. But Melinda already knew that Alex was notified by me, and it was ......"

"Phil, I didn't have any plans in the first place, and after the two of them were together, it was also a kind of concern and constraint for Alex Mercer, that's all. I understand that if you try to take advantage of it, it's easy to lose more than you lose. ”

"Hmm."

PS: I've been busy going through the procedures for returning home recently, and the update may be unstable, but it won't be interrupted, I hope you will support it!
