Eleven months ago, an Inhuman who had left the Afterlife Organization was hijacked on a passenger plane returning to Europe, and he stepped out to help, only to slam through the deck of the plane with too much force, causing the plane to crash into the sea and 27 people missing...
It is almost impossible to conclude that the missing person is dead. ”"Eight months ago, a group of terrorists hijacked a hotel in the Middle East, and several superhumans suspected of being modified by aliens wanted to succeed in their heroes, but they sabotaged the police negotiations and forced the terrorists to detonate the bomb in advance, and the exact number of dead is still a mystery.""
Five months ago, a cruise ship ran aground on the coastline of California, and someone went to help and rescued seven people, but their actions were so rough that the torn cruise ship lost its buoyancy, leaving the remaining 11 people who could have been rescued buried forever in the icy sea.""
One month ago, the gangs in Harlem, New York, broke out again, the cause of the scuffle was the assassination of the top leaders of the three gangs by an unknown guy one after another, and the melee that broke out in the night resulted in at least 49 injuries, if it were not for our supernumerary agent Luke .
Cage and Jessica.
Jones intervened to stop the chaos at the time, and the number of dead and wounded would be even higher. ”"And then there's today, two young people who want to do good...
But another 17 people died in the accident. ”In the office of the commissioner of the Trident Building, Merlin put the accident information in front of Fury's eyes, and said, "As the saying goes, when good people stop standing up to stop evil, evil wins."
But let's be honest, looking at these incidents, I'd rather the 'good people' who want to do good things stay in peace, and they intervene to make things worse. ”Merlin looked at Fury, and he whispered, "These guys are doing anything wrong in the name of 'justice', and the worst thing is that they think they are completely right.Fury, the World Security Council's concern is correct, this growing 'heroic act' is not what we need, we need to do something about it. ”Fury didn't answer immediately, he looked at the papers on the table, and after more than ten seconds, he raised his head and looked at Merlin, and he said, "I remember, you used to admire the Batman of Gotham City, if I'm not mistaken, that bat in Gotham is almost the first batch of 'superheroes', right?"
”"Truth be told, I still have a lot of respect for him, Fury."
Merlin crossed his arms and said to Fury: "He is effective in stopping crime in every action, and he deliberately keeps a low profile, and he never forcibly goes to the hero in what the police deal with and the police can handle."
Most importantly, Batman is prepared for any eventuality...""
He's a model for all superheroes, and everyone should learn from him, but unfortunately, not everyone who stands up to stop evil is Batman."
Merlin pointed to the papers on the table, and he said, "These people...
These people are inexperienced, they lack reason, they lack planning, they just have the ability to be controlled well, and the enthusiasm that has nowhere to be placed, and the reckless, reckless thinking full of justice, which will only be brutal by nature. ”"I really doubt it, what are they fighting for?
Is it to protect the innocent?
Is it a pure desire to do good?
Or is it just to live a superhero addiction?
To win accolades and satisfy your own narrow vanity?
”Merlin pursed his lips and shook his head, "It's not that I'm trying to figure them out with malice, Fury...
But unfortunately, what they did was no better than I thought. ”"It is refreshing and rewarding for them to beat criminals into meat sauce in the streets with their bare hands, and they themselves act as judges, juries and executioners, inspired by 'justice', but it is a powerful provocation to the social order.Baddies need a reason to kill, and these heroes don't seem to need to. ”"They act according to their own ideas rather than the rules of order, they do not restrain their desires at all, and while they fulfill justice, they satisfy their own growing selfish desires."
Speaking of which, Merlin pushed his glasses, and a projection of a dossier appeared in front of Fury's eyes, it was a guy dressed as a cowboy, Merlin pointed at him and said, "This guy, 3 months ago, was arrested in Texas by agents of S.D.O.L.D., he called himself 'Robin Hood', and he kept the law and order in his community for several months, and he did a good job of sending several thieves to the police station."
But the problem is that he is an addict himself, and while maintaining order, he has burglarized the bank's vaults at least 4 times. ”"And this guy, a volunteer police officer in Los Angeles, hooked up with 15 married women in 2 months, and made 4 of them pregnant, and finally was blocked in the warehouse by the unbearable husbands, if the police didn't go in time, he would probably be beaten to death."
Merlin spread his hands and said to Fury, "So, are they good people, or are they bad people?"
Is it a protector?
Or a destroyer of order?
”"That's what I'm trying to say, Fury, people are complex creatures, and when they don't have power, they keep to themselves.""
With power, but without the will to control it, they will do a lot of ridiculous and even disgusting things.It is a pity that the vast majority of ordinary people who are new to power will not take the initiative to restrain themselves. ”"I don't hate them for fighting crime, really, I appreciate this kind of behavior, I appreciate their courage," Merlin whispered.I can't wait for those villains to die. ”"But the problem is that the trouble they're getting into is obviously worse than the good things they've done.You see, even Batman, who is the benchmark for superheroes, is often complained about by the citizens of Gotham City, not to mention others?
”"A few years ago, these 'heroes' were praised and welcomed when they appeared, but now, a few years later, they have begun to be blamed and resisted, and I don't think this is the ingratitude of the people they 'protect', and a large part of this is due to their own good and bad qualities.""
The profession of superhero has no future, and heroes are not something that everyone can do."
Merlin grunted a lot, and he looked at Fury, waiting for Fury's response.But the director of the boiled egg did not answer immediately, on the contrary, he looked at the documents and said: "You raised a very difficult question, do you have a plan?"
”"Yes."
Merlin said: "I have a plan that is not very mature, and I will bring it next time, and I think it will effectively restrain this group of guys who are constantly testing the edge of the law and rules." ”"I mean, if they want to be heroes, then they have to act like heroes."
Merlin pushed his glasses, and a twinkle flashed in his eyes: "They have to follow the rules of the heroes, not be unsupervised and reckless like they are now." ”"I actually have a plan on my side."
Fury closed the papers on the table, he looked up, and said to Merlin, "Pierce and I noticed this problem when those superheroes were just born, and we had a secret plan to advance between us.But I'll have to get his permission before I can disclose this plan to you. ”"Well, Merlin, you go ahead and prepare your plan first, and I'll send you a message as soon as Pierce gives me an answer.""
I thought I knew a little bit about S.H.I.E.L.D.'
s secrets."
Merlin stared at Fury, and after a few seconds, he said, "It seems like there are still many things I don't know, but you have prepared in advance, and this is really the style you have always been." ”"Well, I'll wait for your news, and I'm sure you won't let me down."
He took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, then said to Fury, "Then I'll go first." ”"Well, go ahead."
Fury watched Merlin push open the door and walked out, he looked at the papers that Merlin had brought and placed on the table, the director shook his head, he picked up the telephone on the table, and after a while, the phone rang."
Pierce, I'm going to get Merlin involved in Project Insight."
Fury said to the other end of the line, "What do you think?"
”"I proposed to bring Merlin on board a long time ago, Fury."
On the other end of the phone, Alexander.
Pierce's voice grew cheerful, and he said to Fury, "I've always thought that Merlin is the best person to execute and oversee Project Insight, but you've always thought that Merlin is a bit idealistic, and you think he may not be able to accept the more extreme ideas of Project Insight." ”"Merlin is still an idealist, Pierce.""

But he's learned to mix idealism with the necessary means of reality, and the recent superhero riots around the world have left Merlin feeling a little overwhelmed," Fury said.He, like us, sees the threat of lawlessness to the social order, and he is ready to deal with it. ”"Of course.""
Merlin has always been the protector of order, and he is as eager as we are to see the birth of a new order, which stems from Merlin's inner resistance to darkness, and he has been fighting against the other side of himself, he has never fallen into darkness, and as I said, he is a true hero." ”"He deserves more praise and praise than the ignorant, stupid, and hypocritical heroes who seek fame and fame.Fury, Merlin will be the best successor for you and me...""
I think I can do it for a few more years."
Fury joked, "I'm not in such a hurry to arrange a successor, but...
Indeed, as you said, there is no one more suitable to take over the position of director in the current S.H.I.E.L.D. than Merlin. ”"You're old, Fury, too."
Pierce whispered, "Just like me, the future belongs to a young man like Merlin, and we idealists, those of us who believe in order, should not covet power...""
Give him the Insight, I'm sure Merlin will make the right judgment."
After ———————————————— leaves the Trident Mansion, Merlin goes straight home.His sister May.
Riley was sitting on the sofa in the living room, Raven and Lorna were talking to May, they knew what happened to Mei today, and Laura seemed to be heartless and sat on the side watching TV, but the little wolf girl occasionally glanced back at Mei, which showed that she was also paying attention to May's situation.For a child with a communication disorder, it is good enough to be able to do this."
Merlin, something..."
When she saw Merlin appear strangely in the living room, Mei put down the teacup in her hand, she looked at her brother with a lot of doubts in her eyes.Her younger brother seems to have become a lot stranger all of a sudden."
I confess."
Merlin raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender, he sat on the sofa and said to Mei who was looking at him: "I am not an employee of the Bridge and Tunnel Authority, and I am indeed not an ordinary person..." ”"Other than that, I'm a wizard."
He drew his wand again and placed it on the table.Mei looked at the things on the table a little blankly, and after a moment, she put down the water glass in her hand and asked seriously: "I can accept that you are an agent, after all, you are always elusive, but wizard?"
Brother...
Are you sure you're not talking nonsense?
Is there really magic in this world?
”"You just saw how I appeared."
Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, he reached out and grabbed May's wrist, and in the light of the shapeshifting charm, he and May appeared on the roof of a building the next moment.The pale-faced sister looked at the swaying ground below, she let out a scream, hugged Merlin like a koala, and she screamed, "Okay, I believe it, take me back!"
You nasty brother. ”The two of them returned to the living room, under the protection of Merlin's magic, Mei didn't feel too uncomfortable, she just had some difficulty accepting her brother's true identity."
So those magic tricks you performed on Little Peter earlier...
Is it magic?
”Mei stared at her brother and said, "And when little Peter disappeared before...""
I almost tore down all of New York City for that little guy, and tens of thousands of vampires died because of Little Peter, but they deserve to die."
Merlin shrugged, he put his hand on Mei's cold fingers, and said, "I'm sorry, sister, I didn't confess all this to you earlier, and what happened today, I should have protected you better." ”"No, it's not your fault, Merlin.What happened today..."
Mei's expression also became gloomy, she lowered her head and said: "I watched the news, 17 people died, I know them...
Knowing each and every one of them, although they are homeless, they are all very good people and have never hurt others because they are doing badly.I can't figure it out, brother, why...
Why did such a terrible thing happen to them?
”"This is a regrettable accident, sister, life is always full of accidents.""
The ability not to be used properly, the responsibility of both the protector and the protected, the obligation that must be carried out in the performance of justice.These are troublesome things, but they must be watched all the time. ”Merlin patted Mei's palm lightly, and he comforted, "We are already thinking of a way, and I promise you that the hero with no name will soon have nowhere to go, and such accidents will not happen again soon." ”()
