New York, Manhattan, downstairs of the Stark Industries headquarters, a black Chevrolet sports car is parked in the Stark Group's underground parking lot.

With one precise move, he reversed the car into the garage and unbuckled his seat belt.

The white man sitting in the driver's seat turned around and saw the distracted Asian woman beside him, and softly called her name several times: "Mei? Mei? Melinda Mei?"

The Asian woman sitting in the passenger seat was in a daze, staring at the window glass directly in front of her. She heard the person next to her calling her name. It took her a while to realize: "Colson, what's wrong? Could it be that? Is there something going on?"

"Please, we are on duty now. Your current condition is not suitable for getting close to the target, let alone playing the role of a North American Cup swordsmanship champion later." A man named Colson complained.

Melinda rubbed her temples absently, then unbuckled her seatbelt and complained: "If you stay in Hell's Kitchen for a month, and just after your shift is over, you are about to lie down and your head has not touched the pillow, and your immediate boss calls you to carry out the next task immediately. Then after another two hours of bumpy driving in the car, you will be easily distracted like me!"

Hearing Melinda's complaint, Colson immediately comforted: "Okay, okay, it's my fault, it's my fault. But you also know that our line of work is born to be hardworking. Who calls our department It’s just for dealing with these. While there is still time, why don’t you take a rest for a while..."

"No, I will adjust as soon as possible."

Melinda patted her cheek gently to cheer herself up. Then he took out a mint-flavored energy bar from his pocket and gave himself some nutrition.

The strong mint flavor went straight to the brain and made Mei Lin feel more energetic.

The working environment of SHIELD is extremely complex, not only requiring frequent overtime work, but also often dangerous.

SHIELD was established to prevent ordinary civilians from being troubled by supernatural events or super-advanced technology and to protect their lives.

Generally dangerous jobs are left to the police and the military, and only those jobs that are beyond their ability to handle are left to SHIELD.

Complaints are complaints, since Melinda joined SHIELD, she has long been accustomed to the intensity of this kind of mission.

Especially field work, which tests the patience and attention of the staff very much. When necessary, they may even need to take some illegal medicines to keep themselves focused.

Coulson took out a laptop from his briefcase in the back seat, turned it on, and opened some files for Melinda to see.

While eating an energy bar, Melinda looked at the computer screen and asked Coulson: "Is this mission taking place at Stark Industries headquarters? Has our Playboy done something big again?" News? Did terrorists in the Middle East kidnap him again, or did he receive a cholera email, or did he develop a new deadly weapon?"

Melinda still had some complaints about Tony Stark. The speech that Tony lost from Coulson took him a long time to polish. As a result, not only did he not speak according to the speech, but he admitted to the media that he was Steel Xia.

This kind of target-setting behavior has also caused headaches for SHIELD agents. In addition to his name as Iron Man, Tony Stark is also a world-famous super-rich man, a great scientist, and a great philanthropist. He has a significant role in society. Influence, this makes SHIELD unable to "pacify" the other party in the same way as it "pacifies" civilians.

Of course, there is another reason. His father's name is Howard, one of the founders of SHIELD. In order to ensure Tony's safety, SHIELD had to send a group of agents to secretly monitor him 24 hours a day to protect him and prevent him from being killed by terrorists. revenge.

Tony is very fierce in the steel armor, but after taking off that layer of armor, he is just an ordinary person.

An accident, a gun, a car accident, an explosion could endanger Tony Stark's life.

"This mission has little to do with Tony Stark, but it does have something to do with it."

Coulson swiped his fingers on the computer screen a few times to bring up an electronic document.

Melinda clicked on the mission document and was a little surprised to see the face of an Asian child: "Isn't this the secret illegitimate son called Tony Stark by the media, the lucky one who inherited 12.5% ​​of the shares of the Stark Group? Are there terrorists interested in him and planning to kidnap him?"

Melinda had also heard about this kid named Chen Yu, especially the fact that he inherited 12.5% ​​of the shares of Stark Group, which made people jealous to the point of envy.

After Stark Group announced the news of the share transfer, many people wanted to replace it.

Owning 12.5% ​​of the shares, not to mention wandering for half his life, without meeting his master, if he doesn't give up, he is willing to make Stark his adoptive father.

Even if there is only 1% of the shares of Stark Industries, many people can still fight to the death.

Coulson took out a stack of red-covered documents from his briefcase and handed it to Melinda: "Don't underestimate this kid. According to some investigations, we know that the first time he appeared was when Tony was kidnapped, helping Tony out. ; The second time he appeared, he appeared directly in New York. Before that, there was no way to find any information about him."

"Can you believe that an eleven or twelve-year-old boy could not find any information with SHIELD's capabilities, whether it was medical records, school education or interpersonal relationships, before Tony Stark's accident happened? I can’t find it, it’s as if this man jumped out of the cracks in the rocks, and he also controls special powers. These are some photos taken by our agents at the Stark Group.”

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. usually do not put important files on their computers because they are afraid that some super hackers will invade S.H.I.E.L.D.'s computers and leak information.

"Seventh level authority, it seems to be quite special. No wonder this mission is not assigned to the bastards below."

Melinda raised her eyebrows, and skillfully opened Chen Yu's file. She skipped the introduction that contained nothing except his name, gender, and photo stickers, and turned to the second page. She was a little stunned, pointing at the photo. The giant monster wagging its tail said: "What is this? A dragon? Or is it still on the roof of the Stark Industries building? Am I not awake, or is the intelligence department joking?"

The background of the photo is the Iron Man battle that took place over the Stark Group not long ago.

Obadiah was lying on the ground, and Tony was controlling the battle-damaged version of the steel armor and standing next to the little Asian boy. The most eye-catching thing was that the mythical dragon-like monster was wagging its tail and breathing fire upwards.

Coulson shrugged, initially startled by the photos in the file.

"In fact, it seems that the little boy just summoned the dragon to say hello to Tony. The intelligence personnel who were monitoring at the time said that the dragon was as obedient as a puppy, and the little boy quickly transformed into a dragon and disappeared."

"This little boy has other abilities. If you scroll down, there are other photos below."

Melinda turned to the next page of the document.

"At that time, we happened to have a private satellite belonging to SHIELD monitoring Tony Stark, and this was a photo we took by chance."

The little boy in the photo is sitting on a broom, with a steel armor painted in gold and red in front of him pulling him behind him.

However, the photo was very blurry, and Melinda could still tell that the figures one behind the other in the photo were Tony Stark and this little boy named Chen Yu.

"Flying on a broomstick? Is this little boy the magician in the story?"

Melinda continued flipping through the rest of the file photos.

The next photo is the scene where Tony's armor falls off and the little boy emerges from the door made of sparks to save Tony.

Coulson also added: "This is a scene where Tony Stark is suspected of having something go wrong while testing the performance of his steel armor at high altitude. The little boy used some kind of space ability to save Tony."

The next few pictures were a continuation of this incident. Merlin turned to the last picture, pointed at the taxi in the picture and asked, "Where is this one?"

"This is the first taxi the little boy took when he came to New York. It was captured by street surveillance. Our intelligence officers found the taxi driver and tried to learn the situation from him, but he didn't remember him at all. One of the passengers we pulled over was this little boy, and there was no extra money in the day’s revenue record, so we suspect that this little boy may have hypnotic abilities to clear the taxi driver’s memory.”

Melinda was a little surprised when she heard that the little boy didn't pay for taking a taxi. "Doesn't it mean that the boy doesn't pay for taking a taxi?"

Melinda has also seen many people who begin to ignore social order and do evil after awakening their superpowers.

Taking a taxi without paying is not a big deal at all.

"Ahem... I can't say that. It might be private revenge. After all, this taxi driver often rips off customers and charges very high prices for tourists. He has received many complaints..."

Melinda was a little surprised when she heard Colson's words. She had heard that some New York taxi drivers specialize in charging high fares to tourists. She didn't expect that she could hear this in a file that could only be seen with level seven permissions. this matter.

I don’t know whether to say that the other party is ignorant or to say that the other party deserves it.

"So according to the judgment of the intelligence department, it is currently known that the little boy has at least the ability to summon monsters, fly, space travel and hypnosis. The other conditions are unknown."

After taking the information and photos in her mind, Melinda returned the file to Colson and asked: "Then what is our mission? Is it to contact this little boy directly, or to monitor and protect him?" Him, or get rid of him?”

Colson continued to pull out several documents on the computer and showed them to Melinda.

"Since the little boy suddenly appeared in the Stark Group two days ago and used the Stark Group's official website to publish an announcement to recruit swordsmanship coaches, offering a monthly salary of 400 million US dollars, this has not only happened in the swordsmanship world, but also in the entire sports world. It has caused an uproar in the world, and many well-known athletes are gearing up to apply for this position."

"The director may think that you have an Asian face, are proficient in fighting, and may be more likely to favor the other party in terms of appearance, so he gave you this task."

"By the way, here's your resume for your job."

Coulson handed Melinda another stack of documents, which contained fake resumes.

Melinda is also used to this method of forging resumes.

The above information is all true and verifiable. If SHIELD can't guarantee this, then don't mess around internationally.

Melinda glanced at it for a few times, and after remembering the information above, she put the resume produced by SHIELD under her arm, took out her cosmetics and started to dress herself up to make herself look more like the one in the resume.

Coulson continued to explain the mission: "The director needs you to defeat the competition to obtain the position of swordsmanship coach. Get close to this little boy, and it is best to gain the other party's trust."

Call up several computer files again.

"This is your competition."

"Peterescu, male, is a legend in the Italian fencing community. He has performed well in men's fancy fencing. He has won the title of world champion and represented Italy in international competitions many times."

"Albert Lohmann, male, is a leader among Swiss fencers. He has shown excellent skills and strength in the men's epee event. He has also won many world championships and European championships, and represented Switzerland in the competition. for many Olympic Games.”

"Verekovsky, male, is a legendary Russian fencer. He has achieved great success in the men's saber event and is the first person in history to win three consecutive Olympic gold medals."

Melinda scrolled down the computer document and found that there were many people who had signed up. After a quick glance, there were probably hundreds of people.

In addition to some of the world-class fencing champions that Colson mentioned, Melinda also saw world-class martial arts champions, world-class Sanda champions, and world-class gymnastics champions come to sign up.

It seems that a monthly salary of 400 million US dollars is a big temptation for these celebrities in the sports world.

"In fact, in addition to these athletes in the formal sports world, there are also some people who are walking in the gray area who also want to get a piece of the pie. Among them, we should pay special attention to this person Wade Winston Wilson."

Coulson pulled up Wade Winston Wilson's message and asked Melinda to read it carefully.

"Wade Winston Wilson, known as 'Deadpool', was originally a Canadian mercenary. He was very good at swordsmanship and had a record of cutting bullets with his sword. In order to cure his terminal illness, he participated in the Weapon X program and was After injecting the gene of another mutant with super healing power, the cancer was cured and the patient gained the ability to regenerate. However, due to the instability of the experiment and the mutual repulsion of the regenerative ability and cancer cells, the face was disfigured and the body was covered with disfigurement. scar."

"Ju speculated that it might be the excessive growth of brain cells that made Wade a little crazy after being cured of cancer. He loved to talk nonsense and often talked nonsense. He thought he should have super healing power and often did various acts of seeking death. .”

"I like enjoyment very much, and I like money very much. I always use 'just give me money' as a mantra. I will work for whoever gives me more money, so it is not surprising that he is attracted by the high rewards posted by the little boy. But he is very difficult to deal with. Unless it is absolutely necessary, it is best not to conflict with him..."

Colson's words aroused Melinda's interest. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Is it going to be very troublesome?"

"No, it will become very embarrassing..."
