Chapter 79 Banquet
Almost in the next second, the owner of the villa seemed to have been waiting behind the door, and immediately opened a crack in the door to confirm the identity of the visitor.

And when he saw the officer's distinctive complexion, he immediately opened the door completely and greeted everyone in the combat team into the villa.

Then he looked around to make sure that no one else had noticed, and then he went out and locked the iron door outside, and finally returned to the house.

At this time, the sixteen combat team members who had infiltrated into Berlin were already sitting quietly on the living room floor, looking at the owner of the villa who was walking into the room, a lame old man in his 60s.

The black officer stood up and saluted the other party, then introduced himself:
"The Allied European Theater Special Operations Brigade directly under the [-]st Company, Roaring Commando Captain, Sergeant Nick Fury thank you for your help."

When the old man opposite him saw Fury's military salute, he seemed to think of something, tried his best to straighten his stooped figure, and returned a different military salute.

At this moment, it was confirmed that the old man had also had military experience, and the combat team members felt a sense of kindness, and the atmosphere immediately became active.

But because they were worried about being heard by the neighbors nearby, they just lowered their voices and briefly introduced their personal information to the old man one by one.

After the two sides got acquainted thoroughly, Fury asked the old man a more urgent question:
"Old Barry, is there a place in your villa for us to hide?"

"When we sneaked into the city, we seemed to hear a lot of movement in the other side of the city, so there is likely to be a big search tomorrow, we must find a way to hide!"

Hearing Fury's worry, the old man named "Barry" waved his hand, signaling that the other party should not worry, and then he led Fury to the cloakroom in the villa.

Opening the door of a wooden cabinet full of clothes, Old Barry took out all the clothes in the bottom compartment, and then pushed towards the exposed wall, and a dark hole with a height of half a person appeared.

Obviously, this is a secret room left in the design of the villa.

Seeing this, Fury was really relieved. He returned to the living room with Old Barry, and had a simple but sufficient dinner with the team members who had been lying under the truck chassis for most of the day without a drop of water.

After the meal, Barry Sr. was going to tidy up several rooms upstairs so that the team members could sleep comfortably.

But he was quickly stopped by Fury. When he opened his mouth, he hoped to enter the secret room immediately. He seemed to be worried that Barry would not understand, and even explained a few more words:

"You have been living alone before. If you change or increase the furnishings, beds and daily necessities in the villa for us now, you will definitely not be able to hide it from the group of secret police with dog noses."

"So we have to enter the secret room as soon as possible, and you must immediately clean up the traces we left in the living room, so as not to be discovered."

Hearing Fury's analysis, Old Barry stopped being pretentious and watched the combat team members enter the secret room one by one.

After that, he followed Fury's reminder to deal with the floor, the dining table, and the footprints in the muddy yard.

After climbing into the secret room, Fury saw two flags hanging on the wall at first sight.

The German flag of the Weimar Republic in black, red and gold.

And a red flag with a sickle and hammer.

Then, by flipping through the diary on the desk in the corner of the secret room, Fury completely let go of his guard against the old Barry who received him.

……

……

The next day, Curran woke up refreshed from his sleep.

Let Ophelia, who has been watching all night, go to rest.

He himself was fully prepared for the interrogation from Naju after washing up.

But to his surprise, throughout the day, officers of all stripes from the SS came to the neighborhood to coordinate order and appease the people.

But no one stepped onto the top floor of the hotel to talk to Curran about what happened last night.

As if he had nothing to do with the pit in the street outside.

But when he thought about it, he immediately guessed what Naju was thinking.

It's nothing more than the fact that the Hellfire Club, which launched a ring with them, lost too simply, making them unable to see the strength of Curen's side, so they need to reconsider the way they get along.

It's just that the other party won't have too much time. Tomorrow, the head of state will meet with him at the military parade. If there is no result by then, can he deliberately avoid himself?
Thinking of this, Curran couldn't help feeling a strange pleasure in his heart.

This is the calmness and strength that superpowers should have. Like the group of superheroes who were commanded by government orders to run around in circles in the previous Marvel world, and even led to splits in the end, how ridiculous it is!

But shaking his head, he quickly threw away the unreasonable sense of superiority.

Perhaps on some issues, the embarrassment shown by those superheroes is indeed ridiculous, but the shining points on them are also not something he can criticize, and even he...

At this time, Ke Lun suddenly saw a pair of white palms in his dull eyes after letting go of his thoughts.

Then, from the palm of his hand, a black invitation card was placed on the table in front of him.

Instantly returning to sobriety from the distracted state, Ke Lun's thoughts swept towards the person who came, but the next moment, after discovering that the other party was Ophelia, he dissipated the thoughts.

"You didn't sleep last night, why didn't you sleep more?"

Curran smiled and cared about Ophelia, and opened the invitation with both hands, looking at the contents inside.

"After the human body is strengthened, it doesn't take long to sleep to restore energy."

"This invitation was sent by Heilman. He said that he hoped that you would be there, because this is a banquet for all the secret associations in Naqi, and he can meet many valuable partners."

Ophelia briefly responded to Curen's concern, and then abruptly brought the topic back to work.

From the seemingly normal reply of the other party, Curran felt something different from the past.

"Understood, tell Lilith and the mutant team to go with me."

He paused for two seconds, looked at Ophelia who had turned her head to go out, and added:

"Don't forget to dress up well, you will be my female companion at the banquet."

Hearing this, Ophelia froze when she walked to the door, and then hastily closed the door, forgetting to even open her mouth to respond.

Seeing the other party's gaffe, Curran knew that he had guessed her heart correctly.

Ophelia, who was the first to serve her and had a special relationship with him, seemed to have distanced herself from him overnight.

The reason is probably that in the battle last night, I felt anxious because I was weak and couldn't help.

Especially with Lilith as a comparison, it is really hard not to have the idea of ​​self-denial.

Faced with such a situation where his subordinates are lagging behind, most of the time Curran would just sit on the sidelines, but Ophelia is undoubtedly that small part.

Her loyalty, her artifice, and her chances of winning the Zombie Crown in the future.

It was enough for Curran to reach out and give her a hand...
