Chapter 182: The Plot That Lost an Episode
Editor: Atlas Studios
Phil Coulson directed the flight base to hover over the villa and then lowered the rear hatch so that it touched the ground. The plane did not land directly. It had to be said that Melinda May was a good pilot, and SHIELD's equipment technology was high enough.
Wesley had caught the doctor and Ian Quinn and was waiting outside the villa. Then he took them directly to the plane, which immediately took off and left. Mal's radar picked them up, but S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters began to contact them and gave evidence. S.H.I.E.L.D. had a basis for its actions, but wrangling was inevitable.
In Phil Coulson's office, Wesley and he received a video call from Nick Fury. "You rushed into Malta without asking for permission. This puts us on the defensive. If you don't have evidence, SHIELD will be even more passive."
Wesley didn't say anything. He waved his hand in the open and a transparent container appeared. Inside, a silver liquid of an unknown substance floated in the center. He said directly, "Ian Quinn discovered this substance. It's used as a material power source to power motors and generate a gravitational field. There are many applications, but it's very dangerous. It's not something that's needed on Earth right now."
Nick Fury stopped shouting and then said, "Next time there's such a situation, remember to report to headquarters and send the thing to the place of slingshot. I'll send someone to receive it."
After the video call ended, Phil Coulson smiled and said, "It's you. Otherwise, I would have been scolded badly."
"As I said, agents sometimes need to be decisive. Dr. Hall obviously wants to die with Quinn. Isn't this the best result? Quinn was caught at the scene. He was the mastermind behind the kidnapping. Even if the shareholders of his company wanted to save him, it would be impossible. And SHIELD's prison suits him best. Such a person needs to be locked up for a hundred years."
In the land of the slingshot, the Doctor and Ian Quinn had been taken away, along with all the material that had been taken away. Wesley didn't care what to do with it, as long as SHIELD didn't get themselves killed. They were on vacation again, the days when there were no missions. Wesley trained the three rookies as usual, letting them practice shooting while Sky continued her physical training. Wesley wanted to make the future Shockwave Girl stronger.
"Phew… Can you tell me where you put your armor?" Sky asked when he was resting. "And what they took. I didn't see you take it on the plane."
"It's a secret. It's not time to tell you yet. Let's talk about it later. Your physical fitness is too poor. You need more training and you can still maintain your shape. Isn't that good?" Wesley said with a smile.
Sky looked at his body and pursed his lips. "I have a good figure." Then he turned and left.
Phil Coulson hastily called Wesley, who came into his office. "What happened?"
"The survivor is out of the hospital and ours is following her," Phil Coulson said directly.
"Good news. Let's see if she will act. In addition, have you investigated her interpersonal relationships?" Wesley asked.
"We've investigated it, but it's all fake. It seems that Garrett has already done something. This feeling is really bad. We know it's him, but we can't arrest him," Phil Coulson said helplessly.
Wesley's mood was normal. "That's what happened. My 'mind reading' can't be used as evidence, and it's not the time to be exposed. It's good enough to know so much now. You can't ask for too much. Without me, wouldn't you still need to find out bit by bit?"
"That's right. I was too impatient, but your sacrifice is a little big."
"It doesn't matter. Those bad guys won't be afraid of my ability. To put it bluntly, it's useless. It needs physical contact, and there's no way to use it as evidence in court. What are they afraid of? Unless it's already caught by us, but then we'll basically say it. At most, we'll dig deeper." Wesley doesn't value the ability of 'mind reading' very much. It's not very useful unless you can know what the other party is thinking without physical contact, like Professor X.
"So are we ready to move?" Phil Colson asks.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door. "Come in" Phil Coulson shouted, and Melinda May walked in. "There is a mission. The Hong Kong branch is on the line."
Wesley's brow twitched self-consciously. One episode short of the plot. Why did he skip it? "Apple, one episode short."
"This is reality, not an American drama. It's normal to have less or more. Didn't we say not to rely on the plot?" Apple's voice sounded in Wesley's mind.
"That's true, but when are you going to upgrade?" Wesley asked again.
"I'm not sure. The power of the space gem needs you to control it. I can only guide it in your body, so it's a little slow. If you have time, you should continue to practice the control technique. If you control it well, you can move through space."
"Spatial movement?"
"Yes, like going straight home from here or something. These are all possible. The key is control. If you can find those people in Dr. Strange, then it's not impossible to apply them to magic."
Wesley's eyes lit up, but he didn't stop walking. He went straight to the conference room, where people appeared on the screen. They were searching a room.
Phil Coulson began to introduce the contents of the mission. "Chen Haoran was still performing on the streets a few years ago, but he suddenly mastered the ability to control flames, but his power is not great."
Fitz asked, "How did he suddenly get this ability?"
"I'm not sure. We haven't found the reason. We're still investigating, but the ability has been confirmed," Phil Coulson answered, and then called the agent who was searching. The Chinese man in the lead was surnamed Guan. After Melinda May greeted him in Cantonese, she introduced Agent Guan to everyone. He was a full-time agent of Chen Haoran's disappearance.
Phil Coulson asked directly, "Any leads?"
"Almost nothing. I only found this, a small piece of aluminum foil material."
Simmons said directly, "Fireproof suit material. Whoever took him knew he had superpowers."
"That's right. As for the reason, we almost found it. A few days ago, the technicians discovered that someone had hacked into our database. It's the same wave of hackers who hacked us before. I don't know why they came again. It's the 'Tide Rising' organization."
At this, everyone looked at Sky.
