Chapter 49: Objectives
The next day, Ryan did receive the email.
According to the content, in view of his excellent performance in the past month, he ended the internship assessment period early, and the agent level and intelligence access level were both increased to level six.
At the same time, in order to match the level of the agent, he officially became the captain of the 9th Special Operations Group, and there was no "deputy".
As soon as I finished reading the email, Hill's phone called.
She didn't mention anything suspicious or tentative, just congratulated and encouraged Ryan to continue to do well in the future.
After putting down the phone, Ryan gained a deeper understanding of Hydra's personnel and power network in S.H.I.E.L.D.
No matter how much the ridiculous nickname of the Snake Shield Bureau is called, it is not as good as really experiencing it once.
He looked at the phone, and after a while, an unfamiliar number also called.
"Ryan, you should get the results." Rumlow's voice came.
"Hmm."
"How's it going, are you interested now?"
"Are you sure you want to talk to me on the phone?"
"Haha, I understand, we can make an appointment and sit down and have a good chat. You set the time, and I'll come to the place. ”
"I need to think about it."
"No problem, but don't keep me waiting too long."
Ryan hung up the phone, got up and walked out of the room.
At the dining table, Zemo had already returned, and when he saw Ryan, he put down the table knife in his hand and took the initiative to say: "The situation is going well, although the scientist has been in love, but he is not very experienced, and he ...... last night"
Ryan raised his hand to stop: "I see." ”
After breakfast, Yelena said to Ryan, "Natasha called last night, and we'll be leaving later." ”
She was referring to the departure to the Red House.
"Hmm." Ryan bowed his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Zemo used to see the overall situation, and Sharon went to study, so let's just bring Jessica with me." ”
Hearing her name, Jessica, who was asleep on the table, suddenly looked up and said sleepily, "What's wrong?" ”
"What a heavy smell of alcohol, how much did you drink last night?" Sharon, who was sitting next to her, hurriedly handed over a glass of milk.
Ryan said: "You are not bad at all, but you have little understanding of the standards and principles of the agent's operation, and you are the only one in the entire team. ”
Jessica grunted down a glass of milk, and said with milk stains on her lips, "Zemo hasn't been an agent either, isn't he a soldier?" ”
Zemo smiled but didn't say anything.
Sharon took her arm and whispered, "You misunderstood, although he is a soldier, he is a colonel officer!" ”
Jessica was stunned for a moment, and was immediately impressed by Zemo.
"You don't even know what the guys on the team have done." Ryan didn't look up at her, just took care of himself and spread the jam on the bread.
Jessica laughed awkwardly: "Hey, hey, I'm ......"
As if he hadn't heard her, Ryan continued, "I don't care how much you want to drink, and I don't care what time you drink, you can even refuse to go with them. But if the future affects the progress of the whole mission because of you alone, I think I will make you soak in alcohol forever in the future. ”
"I'll go!" Jessica nodded heavily.
Moments later, the four of them left together.
Only Ryan and Antonia were left in the room.
She cleaned up the table, washed the dishes, cut a piece of fruit and brought it to Ryan, and then sat down next to him.
On a computer screen, a large amount of text combined with a small number of pictures looks very boring.
Antonia glanced at it and lost interest, so she reached for a piece of fruit and brought it to Ryan's mouth.
Ryan glanced at her, a little puzzled in his eyes.
He still hasn't figured out whether Antonia's current intimacy is because he saved her or because he bit her.
But it is obviously impossible to get the right answer to this question by asking questions, and the best thing to do is to bite one more.
Swallowing the fruit, he said, "You still don't feel hungry?" ”
Antonia nodded and smiled, "I think that's good." Yelena always said she wanted to lose weight, but last night I saw her get up and steal food. ”
Ryan couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you looking at?" Antonia asked.
"This is S.H.I.E.L.D.'s operational mission report in recent years, although it is only below level six, but you can also see a lot of things."
"You're interested in these?"
"It's not." Ryan shook his head and asked instead, "Do you have any goals?" ”
Antonia thought for a while, but still said uncertainly: "I used to want revenge and freedom. But now that I'm free, for a moment, I don't really know what I'm going to do. ”
"Well, I won't let you go, on the one hand, I want to continue to observe your changes, and on the other hand, ......"
"No explanation, I understand." She said with a straight face, "Actually, it doesn't matter if I go, I won't be soft on him." ”
Ryan didn't say anything more, just shook his head.
The contents of Draykov's head have been almost hollowed out by Melina, and it is foreseeable that Natasha and Yelena will definitely kill the worthless Draykov on this trip, which is also what Lane acquiesces in.
Antonia, of course, can get revenge.
However, Ryan thinks it's best not to let her do it herself.
It's not that Our Lady is responsible, but that this kind of thing may one day be used by an unknown being, which will have adverse consequences and even long-term negative consequences for her.
This is not without precedent.
"And what about your goals?" Antonia asked rhetorically.
Ryan closed his computer and leaned back, leaning back, looking at the white ceiling.
Seeing this, Antonia slowly fell down and leaned on Ryan's shoulder.
Previously, Ryan had not really been able to fully trust anyone.
Until Antonia appeared, it was because he had bitten him.
After some words are spoken, there will be a certain degree of emotional relief.
People, after all, are social animals.
"Maybe you won't understand it now, but I have some sense of crisis and urgency."
"Well, I'm listening."
"I feel a sense of crisis because the world is not safe, and I am insecure. The sense of urgency is because I want to go home, which is certainly not home here. At that house, I also have my parents and sister. ”
Antonia raised her eyes and said softly, "Do you have a wife?" ”
"Nope."
"Oh." She lowered her head again.
"Whatever the purpose, you need to grow stronger."
"Hmm."
"If you want to go faster, you have to borrow strength. I can't do it alone, so I'm looking for you; It's also important to be justified, at least a lot of the time saved, so I stayed with S.H.I.E.L.D.; It is even more undesirable to follow orders blindly, because I know very well that there must be differences between my own thoughts and many people's perceptions, but I am not willing to change my thinking to merge with others, so in addition to the above two points, I also have to ensure that I have the ability to be independent at all times. ”
