At 11 o'clock in the evening, the hands of the clock hanging on the wall of Fury's office had just crossed that node when the door was pushed open.Under Fury's gaze, with the sound of a cane tapping on the ground, Merlin in a trench coat appears in his office.Fury seemed to be prepared for Merlin's arrival, and as he looked at his best subordinates, he saw Merlin's slightly pale face, slightly disheveled hair, and poor mental state.This means that Merlin has not recovered from his physical weakness, and it also means that Merlin has not had a good rest in the past few days.Of course, it could also be because, he just went through something terrible.Merlin walked into Fury's office, closed the door with his hand, sat down on the chair across from Fury, and set his cane aside.He looked up at Fury.The latter reached out and picked up the two documents from his hand, and placed them in silence in front of Merlin's eyes.Merlin looked at the document, it was a personnel file, and he barely had to open it to know what was inside.It seems that Fury also knows what he came here for tonight."
I'm sorry, Merlin."
Fury placed his fingers on the table interlaced, and he said sincerely, "About Richard and Mary...""
That's not what I want."
Merlin didn't touch the papers on the desk, he looked at Fury, behind the rimless lenses, there was a glint in those eyes that danced like a burning flame.In a cold tone, he said to Fury: "My brother-in-law lost his only relative a few hours ago. ”"My nephew lost his parents a few hours ago.""
My sister is a person with a soft heart and a somewhat fragile emotion, and I have also lost two friends who I just met and are not very familiar with...
Family. ”"I mean—" Merlin's bruised hands clasped into his knees, he looked at Fury, the light above his head beating a dim glow on his pale face, and he said, "How do you make me...
How do you tell them about it?
”Fury looked at Merlin's calm face, and the director, who was already familiar with Merlin's mood changes, suddenly had a headache, because he realized that tonight, Merlin was here to ask for answers and truth.But the problem is, Fury doesn't have that thing either.Richard and Mary's accident came so suddenly that there was no warning at all.But no one with a modicum of brains would think that this was just an ordinary crash.There is a secret to this, but the problem is that the harsh reality does not seem to leave Fury enough time to find the buried truth behind this accident."
Teach me, Fury."
Merlin took off his glasses, he took his handkerchief out of his pocket, and as he wiped the lenses, he looked at Fury with his own eyes like burning embers, his voice becoming softer and softer.It's like being afraid to disturb two weeping ghosts."
You have participated in wars, you must have witnessed the death of many companions, friends.Teach me how you tell these damned, death-related stories to your desperate loved ones without hurting anyone else...
How did you get through the pain of losing a friend or a family member?
”"You should calm down."
Fury said, "I didn't ask you to relay the news of the accident to Ms.
May and Mr.
Ben about their loved ones, there is someone to do this kind of thing...""
Enough!"
Before Fury could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Merlin.The Level 7 secret agent, in a voice that suppressed anger and grief, said to Fury, "The day I became an agent, I knew that even if we risked our lives to do a lot of horrible, but right things, no matter how many people we saved or killed outside, once we got home, these things were meaningless. ”"I also follow your advice, keep my job very separate from my family, I can realize the threat of my work, and I try to protect those I value.But Fury...
This time, it's different. ”Merlin looked at the personnel file on the table, and said, "Even though I've only met them once, you should know, you already knew...
They are my family, Fury. ”"I'm here to ask you a question.I hope to go back with the answers, and I would prefer to tell my sister and brother-in-law all this after this matter is completely resolved, so...
Please let me know. ”Merlin looked up, he looked at Fury, and he said, "Who did that?"
”"I don't know, Merlin."
Fury sighed, the Secret Service Director, who always looked like he was winning, was also deflated at this moment.He leaned back in his chair, he looked at Merlin, and he said, "I really don't know."
From what happened, to now, less than 7 hours have passed, I just received the scene investigation report, there is no useful news in the black box of the plane, I know that this accident is not accidental, I also want the truth, they are my subordinates, you know me, if I can, I will give everything to save them. ”"But now the problem is, disaster has happened, if you want to know the truth and the answer."
Fury knocked on the table, and he said to Merlin, "You have to give me at least a little time." ”"You asked Richard and Mary to help you raise dragons, Fury."
Merlin closed his eyes, and he said a little tiredly, "I can understand your thoughts, and I know what you're doing this for.But if their work is really that important, you should at least pay more attention to them, rather than trying to make up for it after something bad has happened. ”"Who told you?"
Fury's one-eyed narrowed at this moment, he looked at Merlin, and he asked, "How do you know what Richard and Mary do?"
Did they tell you?
”"At this point, are you still concerned about your secrets?"
Under Fury's gaze, Merlin asked rhetorically, "Do you know how many unfriendly glances a Muggle organization will attract when it raises dragons in private?"
”"I didn't warn you, Fury!
South America also has its own magical organizations, and the wandering dark wizards will stop at nothing to get what they need.You think you're keeping it secret enough, but everything you're doing is meaningless in front of a wizard who can search your memories!
”"Bang" something was thrown on Fury's desk.It was a twisted metal blade that looked like a part of an airplane engine.Merlin sat in his chair, straightened up, and said to Fury: "Your technical test can't get results, it's not an accident that Richard and Mary's plane lost control, there was a wizard who transfigured into the plane, and it was the Transfiguration Charm that destroyed the plane's engine...""
You're trying to master power that you don't know and shouldn't have, but you don't have enough power to protect your secrets, and you don't even want to tell me about the dangerous things you're doing!
If you had told me, this would not have happened. ”Merlin's tone became cold: "It was your reckless behavior that killed them!"
Fury. ”Merlin's scolding echoed through the office, but Fury didn't respond immediately, instead, he looked at the twisted blades on the table, and he fell into a thought."
Why don't you speak?
Fury. ”Merlin asked, "Are you repenting?"
”"I just wondered who was planning all this."
Fury reached out and pressed against the cold wreckage, he glanced at Merlin, and said in a firm tone, "But from what I've seen so far, it's clear that someone is deliberately misleading you, Merlin." ”"What?"
Merlin frowned.Fury paused, turned the computer screen around, showed Merlin several documents on the screen, and said, "Richard and Mary's mission on tree bee keeping and observation ended five months ago.The dragons were passed on to other biologists, and your loved ones didn't die because of those dragons, at least not because of them. ”Fury's one-eyed eyes were filled with a calm contemplation, and he whispered, "But the masterminds behind the scenes obviously know your existence, and they also know about your relationship with the Richards, and they know that after you hear about the accident, they will definitely go and see it for yourself, so they deliberately left these traces to divert your attention to something related to magic, and they obviously don't want you to see the truth, Merlin." ”"Of course, I don't rule out the possibility that there are indeed dark wizards involved in this matter."
Merlin glanced at Fury, who clicked on the file on his computer, and as Fury said, Richard and Mary had withdrawn from the Tree Bee research project five months earlier, but at the end of those pages, Merlin noticed a sign marked "S".That was supposed to be Richard and Mary's last mission before they died."
What is this?"
Merlin pointed to the secret mission, and he asked, "Is it another secret that has been hidden?"

”"That's not what you should know."
Fury said, "Don't ask, I won't tell you." ”"I have the right to know!"
Merlin stubbornly said, "If Richard and Mary die because of it, then I have the right to know!"
”"You're just carried away by anger and pain."
Fury didn't give an inch, "What you should do now is to go home and get a good night's sleep and sober yourself."
You're being led by the nose by those behind the scenes, and even your quarrel with me could be their plan. ”After saying that, Fury's tone became a little softer, and he advised Merlin, "Trust me, Merlin, give me a little confidence." ”"You realize that you are at the center of a conspiracy, and what you have to do is not try to break the game brutally, but calm down and observe.I promise you that I will settle this matter, and regarding May and Ben, I will also find a way to calm their emotions, and the son of Richard and Mary, S.H.I.E.L.D. will take care of it.There's not much I can do for them, but I'll do my best. ”Fury looked at Merlin, "Trust me, okay?"
Finding clues is a process, this process takes time, you should be able to understand, everything has a process. ”Merlin saw the sincerity in Fury's eyes, and for a moment, he really wanted to leave these things to Fury.Just like before, he was in charge of the action and Fury was in charge of the finish.They can still work together as well as they did before.However, the deaths of Richard and Mary were like a switch that had been turned on, activating the suppressed emotions in Merlin's heart, like rolling black shadows, making Merlin ignore the threats that had invaded him.The hands that were hiding in the darkness had begun to threaten those around Merlin.Richard and Mary may be just the first victims, and the next may be Eric, May, Coulson.Maybe even Fury will be one of those victims.He can't...
It's as silent as before.He couldn't turn a blind eye to those threats anymore, he had to do something."
I know, it's a process, I know...
I just doubt that it will come to fruition. ”"I really want to believe you, Fury."
Merlin stood up, he looked at Fury: "We've known each other for 10 years, we've worked together for 8 years, and I'really...
Really think of you as my best friend, Fury, even if you have such and such secrets, I think that you should be a kind person at heart, we should be the same people, we all want to do good. ”"But you've changed, Fury."
Merlin took out a few pieces of paper from the pocket of his trench coat that had the Traceless Extension Charm cast, placed them on the table in front of Fury's eyes, and pushed them in front of Fury."
The secrets you've hidden, they've made you a little unknown to me."
Fury looked at Merlin's papers, which had a lot written in beautiful font, but they were fragmentary and unstructured.However, a few keywords exposed in it made Fury's brows jump fiercely.First there are a few loops of arrows representing cash flows, in which Fury sees his own name and Hill's, and the names of several banks used to hide cash flow, and at the end of those arrows, point to two items.One is the "Avengers" project that he has already told Merlin.The other was marked with a question mark, which seemed to mean that Merlin had not been able to find out what it was.Underneath that cash flow diagram was another simple hand-drawn map, a circle that read "Canada, Quebec," and within the circle, a small circle with a small question mark and a brief note of the secret base.On the second page, the "7th District" of the Ministry of Defense is written.Under that heading, three branches extended.Where did NBE-1 go?
Where is the source of the fire?
Who leaked my identity to the Department of Defense?
After the third branch, there is a dotted line, and at the end of the dotted line, a sentence is written that makes Fury's heart tremble."
In S.H.I.E.L.D., there are internal ghosts!"
The third page is a fragment of a diary, not in Merlin's font, but on the missing Peggy, who Fury is familiar with.
Ms.
Carter's font.That's a few words."
Fury intends to follow our 'Paperclip' operation at the time and recruit some special members to join S.H.I.E.L.D.He looked confident, but I was still a little worried. ”"Will Fury be able to fully guarantee that S.H.I.E.L.D. under his leadership will not be infiltrated?""
It's a good thing that Fury is ambitious, but can he really make sure S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't go astray?""
Maybe Fury, who was recruited into this system by me, hasn't noticed that even now, when it's just getting started, the speed of S.H.I.E.L.D.'
s expansion is a little too fast.In the midst of all the chaos, can he really ensure that all the information is safe?
Perhaps, I should find a time to remind Fury. ”Fury looked at the three pieces of paper in front of him, and after a few minutes, he looked up, looked at Merlin with a look of anger and disappointment, and he said word by word, "Merlin, you...
Doubt me?
