Chapter 6: The Knight's Revenge

Nevada Central Hospital, 1985.

In the dark of the night, the wind and rain were blowing, the windows were turned into flowing water curtains by dense raindrops, and the sound of leaves hitting each other pierced the walls and came into the hallway.

The hallway was dimly lit, after all, it was the middle of the night, but contrary to the light, the operating room at the end of the corridor was brightly lit.

Countless doctors and nurses in blue surgical gowns walked around, and the screams of women in pain were incessant, becoming the only sound in this quiet environment except for the sound of rain.

Until a baby's cry echoed through the room.

"Wow...... Wow! ”

The bloodshot man laughed happily, and his clenched hands gradually loosened.

"It's a success, mother and daughter are safe." The doctor said.

"Oh...... Jack, come and see our children......" The woman's face was weak, but her eyes radiated with maternal light.

"Alright, Karina, you rest, I'll take care of little Alice...... Our daughter, Alice Whitehall. ”

……

Four years later, in the fall of 1989, Nevada State Park.

The autumn breeze is bleak, the withered yellow leaves fall all over the ground, and the sunset glows through the broken leaves, reflecting golden spots on the ground.

From time to time, a whirlwind blows, and the leaves are rolled up and then falling, and it is a beautiful scene.

"Dad, let's come here often in the future, okay?" Alice is clearly fond of autumn and constantly tells Jack about her love for the grove.

"Okay, okay, I promise you—but what do you want to do when you grow up, baby Alice? Do you want to be a botanist or a zoologist? ”

"You always ask these boring questions, she's young, darling." Jack's wife, Karina, apparently didn't approve of Jack's question.

"No, I'm going to be a soldier like my father! Arrest the bad guys and put them in jail! Alice, with blond hair, waved her fleshy little fist and said very eagerly.

"But...... I love animals again......"

Seeing that his daughter was lost, and his wife also cast a dangerous gaze, Jack hurriedly remedied:

"Oh, don't think about that, you're still young, can your dad tell you a story before you go to bed?"

As soon as she heard the story, Alice was delighted, and the sense of loss was swept away, and she kept urging Jack to go home.

"Okay, pick up with ...... last time."

This is a fairy tale made up by Jack himself, because Alice's hobby is a bit special at this age, so he has to make it up and tell it himself.

"We told us that the princess had been taken by the villains and locked up on an island, and the king was very worried, so he summoned the strongest knight in the country."

"The princess is the only daughter of the king, so the king orders the knights to set off at once and go to the address left by the villains, Alcatraz."

"The knight was about to set off, but was stopped by Prince Charming: 'I am also going to save Her Highness!' I've got the boat ready, let's go! So said the prince. ”

"The knight couldn't dissuade the prince from staying, so he could only take his subordinates on board the ship."

"It was a ship made of gold, and even the sails were made of gold—the prince thought that such a ship would be in line with the strength of the country."

"The knight was not very optimistic about this behavior, but he got on board anyway, and of course he did not fight alone, but had four loyal men: the King of Spades, the King of Hearts, the King of Clubs, and the King of diamonds."

"Each of these four men has great powers, and they have built a huge fortune for the kingdom."

"As the golden ship set sail, the situation at sea took a turn for the worse - a large snake hundreds of meters long came out of the bottom of the sea, and the huge snake's head smashed directly in front of the knight!"

Alice was a little scared, but couldn't resist her curiosity, pulled the quilt and continued listening.

"The serpent spat out the letter and said, 'The princess often comes to the beach to play, and I am her good friend, and now that my friend is hurt, I cannot leave it alone—there is a huge tsunami ahead, and I can let you hide in my mouth and rush out!' ”

The knight thought for a moment and decided to believe the cunning and evil looking serpent, but he was the only one who got into the serpent's mouth, and everyone else hid in the cabin.

"The serpent dragged the golden ship and the knight in his mouth, rushed out of the tsunami and arrived safely on Alcatraz Island."

"The villains are fighting in the harbor, and they are many times more numerous than the people of the Golden Ship! But the knight was not afraid, he made the serpent rush out of the golden sail, opened his mouth, and jumped out of his mouth, killing the leader of the villains with a single sword! ”

"In the end, the prince rode on a white horse and married the princess, while the knight silently retreated and returned to the kingdom to continue to defend the princess."

Alice's eyes widened and she asked, "Why didn't the knight marry the princess?" ”

"Uh...... Because the knight's mission is to protect the princess from harm. ”

"Okay...... Good night, Daddy. ”

"Good night, Alice."

Kissing his daughter's forehead, Jack gently closed the door.

Alice has loved animals since she was a child, and snakes are one of her favorites, which makes Jack very depressed - what is so cute about this cold-blooded animal? Isn't rabbit it bad?

In the months that followed, Alice drew a bunch of illustrations and pestered Jack to write the story and make it into a storybook.

"How do you draw the cover?" Jack looked at Alice, who was meditating, and came up with an idea: "I'll do it." ”

After thinking about it, he drew a magnificent three-masted sailing ship with yellow crayons, and in the center of the sail there was a huge snake head, and a large mouth of blood basin was opened, and a man stood inside.

"What's the title of the book...... Let's call it the Golden Sail! ”

……

In August 1990, on the eve of the outbreak of the First Gulf War, Marine Corps Major Jack Whitehall received an order to go to the front.

On 28 February 1991, the multinational coalition won a decisive victory in the Persian Gulf at a relatively small cost, with the Iraqi army suffering heavy losses and the United States declaring the end of the war for the liberation of Kuwait.

In May 1991, Iraq accepted a ceasefire agreement.

Then Jack Whitehall immediately applied for leave to go home to see the child, but who knows, just arrived in the United States - the child's wife did not see it, but saw a secret order.

With immediate effect, Jack will join a secret agency: the Homeland Strategic Defensive Attack and Logistics Agency. His family has been secretly protected, so don't worry.

Suspiciously, Jack undergoes agent training, starting as a Level 3 agent.

But no matter how much he looked around, there was not a single news about his family.

Two years later, he couldn't help it at all.

He began to use his quick brain to find some unsolved cases from the S.H.I.E.L.D. database, and sorted them out and solved them.

Slowly, he upgraded, but it still didn't work, and he couldn't find information about his daughter!

Subsequently, he wanted to check the top-secret information, and it happened that he had repeatedly solved strange cases, and the director, Alexander Pearce, gave him the permission to view the database of Level 8 agents, and asked him to sort out clues.

Subsequently, he collapsed.

[Report on the purge of Osborne Industries' biochemical laboratories in Africa]:

In February 1991, at the end of the Gulf War, S.H.I.E.L.D. conducted a raid on a mysterious laboratory in Africa. The lab is working on potions for the mass production of mutants.

The agent was not successfully developed, and the list of test subjects extracted on the spot:

Tabeya Keme — 45 years old, deceased

……

Karina Whitehall – 31 years old, deceased

Alice Whitehall – 6 years old, deceased

Recorded on February 29, 1991

Jack covered his mouth, desperately trying not to scream, his face was flushed, and tears kept coming.

Sitting on the ground and leaning against the wall, this 38-year-old man was helpless at the moment.

The whimpering continued for most of the night.

Jack Whitehall was utterly disillusioned with the country.

Deceitful, brutal, ruthless, cold-blooded...... There is no justice in this country!!

Justice that is delayed is evil! Those disgusting high-ups, capitalists, families...... Since you claim to be the leaders of freedom and democracy......

I'll come and be a knight and take you demons on Alcatraz ...... Destroy the island with it!!

Jack returned to his usual grin, but deep in his eyes, there was a tsunami of rage.

Next, he found a few of his comrades from the army and told them the plan—they all knew the nature of the government, and swore that they would complete it even if they died.

They collect information, fabricate artifacts, take fake photographs, and write historical documents......

Slowly, a huge, evil, and ancient organization that spans the globe, the Golden Sails, was born.

Jack has four cadres, namely:

King of spades, King of hearts, King of clubs, King of diamonds

One of the four is proficient in psychology, one is proficient in pharmaceuticals, one is proficient in mechanics, and the other is proficient in biology.

What Jack hates most is human experimentation - so much so that all the information about Golden Sail is fabricated without mentioning even a single word about human experimentation.

Subsequently, in the name of collating the data, these fabricated things were entered into the S.H.I.E.L.D. database, and encrypted decently.

This was followed by 10 years of preparation.

The code names of King and Awl are just made up, and the few black-robed people in the sewers are just being controlled by hypnosis and drugs.

Those black-robed men firmly believed that they were the leaders of the ancient organization of the Golden Sails, and for ten years they had been constantly lining up against a bunch of false people.

They exist so that S.H.I.E.L.D. will not doubt the authenticity of the Golden Sail when they are caught.

……

"The King of Spades, the plan can begin, I want you to hold that polusalino in tow, is that okay?" Jack Whitehall asked in a garage.

The middle-aged man who was missing an arm in front of him nodded and replied, "No problem, Lord Knight, they are also ready for the square plum blossoms." ”

…… Alice...... Daddy has gone to avenge you......

Jiang Yuan, who was consulting information in Mexico, jumped up from the sofa: "Blanch! He's going to do something to Osborne! ”

Ignoring the surprised eyes of the surrounding agents, the figure in a yellow striped suit and a justice coat quickly disappeared.
