Chapter 286: Return
Fury and the Sandman walked out of the conference room together. The latter was still pushing the cart full of gold, the bars shining brightly in the sun, and the sandman's face was filled with satisfaction and anticipation. He seems to be both a newcomer in the eagerness to pursue a new life and a winner of wealth.
At the same time, White Night was left alone in the conference room and sat in a chair, a silence surrounding him.
He thought for a moment, his expression calm, and his eyes revealed a sense of determination. He twisted the ring on his finger, and a burst of intense white light enveloped it, quickly filling the room.
The white light took on a dazzling glow, accompanied by a surging of energy like a breeze. White Night seemed to merge with the light, and then after a few seconds, both he and the white light disappeared without a trace.
The room was once again immersed in tranquility, and the air seemed to still have a strong glow from the moment earlier. The departure of the white night is like an illusion, but the silence and tranquility left behind make people feel a trace of indescribable awe and mystery.
At least for Fury, who is still watching on the other side of the surveillance.
At this time, Fury and the sandman passed through the passage of the aerospace carrier, and the hurried agents around them were busy with their own work. The structure inside the mothership is complex, and the various divisions are connected to each other through these channels.
He hurried along, staring intently at the small screen on his wrist, occasionally turning his head to look at the sandman beside him.
Agents come and go, hurrying to carry out their respective tasks. Some wore S.H.I.E.L.D.-specific gear, while others held files, mobile devices, or other equipment necessary for the mission, occasionally exchanging necessary information or waving hello to each other.
Fury stared at the small screen on his wrist, which was constantly flashing with important information, and he turned his head towards the sandman from time to time, as if to keep an eye on his condition and state. His eyes were full of concentration and vigilance, as if he was always keeping an eye on everything around him, making sure that everything inside the aircraft carrier was functioning properly.
The Sandman walked briskly, pushing the cart full of gold, his eyes excited and curious to observe the busy surroundings. From time to time, he pauses to try to capture some highlight or peculiarity of his surroundings.
At least for him, this is the first time to walk on an air-space carrier as a person, and not as a mass of quicksand packed in an hourglass.
Looking at everything in front of him, the sandman was surprised and excited. "I've never seen these places like this, and I've always looked at them as a prisoner before. ”
He kept looking around, intently observing the intricate structure inside the mothership and the busy agents everywhere, as if to take it all in.
Fury, who was on the side, shrugged his shoulders when he heard the exclamation of the sandman, and showed a tolerant smile: "As long as you abide by the law in the future, you can come here at any time to see." ”
"The Mothership isn't just the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D., it's our home. If you can walk in here legally, you'll be welcome. ”
The sandman was a little puzzled when he heard Fury's words, he stopped, his brows furrowed slightly, and asked puzzledly, "I thought you were not open to civilians?" This is a place where I could only enter as a prisoner before. ”
The one-eyed dragon just smiled and shook his head slightly, not immediately answering the sandman's question.
He smiled in a smile that was both forgiving and mysterious, and then patted the sandman on the shoulder in a friendly way, as if to imply something.
Civilian? This kid actually said he was a civilian?
Is he serious?
At the moment, the Sandman is not only a super-criminal who has 'reformed his ways', but also one of the symbols of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s friendship with that white night, and has to be treated specially.
The Sandman was still confused about Fury's answers and actions. He looked at the middle-aged man beside him, his eyes full of doubt and confusion, trying to understand the meaning of Fury's conveyance, but still scratching his head.
In the middle of the conversation, the two of them had already walked to the S.H.I.E.L.D. warehouse, where a weighing instrument was waiting, and Fury walked over to the instrument and motioned for the sandman to put the gold bars on and weigh them.
It's just that the man in the green T-shirt made of his own sand looks a little hesitant, and doesn't seem to be very eager to move the things on the cart.
Seeing this, Fury took a deep breath and patiently said to the sandman, "We need to record the weight of these gold bars in order to verify the value and help you with the rest of the formalities." This is the necessary step and you will get the money you deserve. ”
The Sandman lifted a gold bar and looked at it with a frown, as if he was a little reluctant to hand it over. He muttered softly, "I've earned it by selling a lot of my strength." ”
Fury looked at the somewhat contradictory expression of the sandman, he helplessly held his forehead, and said secretly in his heart: Is this guy still worried that S.H.I.E.L.D. will ignore his gold bars?
He sighed softly, and turned to think about explaining the elm head in a more peaceful tone.
White Night stepped out of the intense white light and reappeared in his laboratory. The laboratory is brightly lit, all kinds of instruments and equipment are neatly placed, and high-tech equipment is operating, making a faint humming sound.
There are many scientists busy in the laboratory, wearing white coats, carefully operating instruments, recording data, or conducting various experiments. There is a strong scientific atmosphere in the laboratory, full of focus and energy.
His return doesn't seem to cause much surprise, as scientists seem to have adapted to his sudden appearance or disappearance.
At this moment, Walter walked quickly in front of Bai Ye, stretched out his hand without hesitation, and welcomed: "Mr. Bai Ye, welcome back!" There are some important experimental results and developments that I can't wait to share with you. ”
With a smile on his face, White Night asked Walter, "Walter, what happened to the results of the research on the clones I brought back?" Have you made any new discoveries? ”
Walter was stunned for a moment, then responded with a smile: "Mr. White Night, you came at the right time. That's what I'm going to report on. ”
"We have made some important progress in human cloning research, particularly in improving cloning technology. This could have far-reaching implications for future research and experimentation. ”
As he spoke, he frowned slightly, revealing a thoughtful expression under his glasses, and he began to explain: "It is true that jackal's cloning technology has a lot of shortcomings, but through the research of our team, we have made some improvements. ”
He tapped his fingers on the table next to him, pondering as he continued, "We set out to improve cell replication and gene sequencing during cloning, as well as the survival rate of artificial cloning. ”
"We've made some significant progress by tweaking some key technical details."
"This way, please let me show you."
