[Comprehensive British and American] How agents solve the single problem

28

MI6's James Bond and Quartermaster Q are indeed here for cooperation.

The previous transnational kidnapping case in charge of the CIA should have been closed, but Susan Cooper found out a dark thread - there is another backer behind the kidnapping organization, and this backer is likely to be a high-ranking domestic official. MI6 is bureaucratically constrained, and the Royal Secret Service is accountable to no one.

In the early stage of the investigation, there were not many things to ask, and Q was an acquaintance of Merlin.

He completed the handover in an official tone until everything was confirmed. After a brief pause in the conversation, Q took off his glasses from his delicate face, took out his handkerchief and wiped it, and put on a casual tone: "So Your cat has become a human."

Merlin: "..."

"It was an accident," he said.

"It was a lovely accident," Bond said, "like a fairy tale."

Merlin glanced at James Bond.

The scene of him kissing Phoebe just now resurfaced, and Merlin was still very upset, but he never brought his personal emotions to work.

So Merlin kept the official tone: "I don't think this matter has anything to do with cooperation."

Bond raised his eyebrows, but didn't say much.

Merlin made an appointment with the two colleagues from MI6 on the mission time, and then sent them out.Q didn't continue the topic just now until he walked out of the store door and James Bond drove first.

"So, the new Galahad agent made his wish successfully." The young quartermaster said calmly.

"……Yes."

"Please help me convey that if he encounters the same situation next time, I also have two cats at home."

"........."

What do you think of Eggsy, a wishing machine?Merlin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he really wanted to ask the MI6 quartermaster, who has always been realistic and rational, why he believed in metaphysics, but when he thought about it, this might be the obsession of the cat slave.

"I'll pass it on."

What else could he say? Merlin didn't believe that there would be a third time that a small animal turned into a human. The chance of this was so small that it could be ignored.

After sending off Q and Bond, Merlin returned to the store, and Phoebe was not sitting on the sofa as usual.

He thought for a while, then went straight back to the study, opened the door and the room was still empty.Merlin paused, and then he turned his head to look above the bookcase next to the door.

Phoebe was sitting there.

Today's girl is not meant for big moves in a lady's suit, but she loves to challenge herself.Just like now, Phoebe sitting on a high place has neat and clean clothes, if not for the wrong position, she looks like a rich lady sitting at the piano and listening to lectures.

"That's not a good habit, girl," Merlin said.

"But no one saw it."

"Etiquette and quality are not for others to see," he laughed. "When there are people, you look like a human being, but when there are no one, you act recklessly. This is not a good virtue, Phoebe."

"OK then."

Having agreed to be an open-minded person, Phoebe thought about it and accepted Merlin's opinion.

Although she was still reluctant.

But now Merlin can tell the difference between Phoebe's "reluctance" and "not listening at all". As long as Phoebe is willing to think about things, it proves that she listened.

So Merlin didn't continue: "Come down, girl."

Phoebe smiled.

Her gray eyes blinked, and the man understood the girl's intentions without further words.

Merlin took a step forward, raised his arms, and almost the next moment, Phoebe jumped down without hesitation.

He caught her accurately, with trust flowing between his lithe body and his powerful palms, and threw himself into Merlin's arms. Phoebe immediately wrapped her arms around the man's neck, leaving a spot on both sides of his cheeks passionately. kiss.

"I'm doing well today," she said with a smile. "Q and Mr. Bond like me too!"

"........."

Which pot does not open which pot.

Merlin really wanted to say directly, stay away from that blond man.But such a simple and rude sentence will only bring Phoebe countless questions, so he cleared his throat: "Remember what I said, Phoebe?"

Phoebe: "Merlin said too much."

Merlin: "If any male humans ask you to mate, you can't agree to them."

Phoebe:?

Merlin: "Especially James Bond."

Phoebe still didn't get it.

Merlin has always been very reluctant to discuss the matter of mating. It feels strange to suddenly bring it up, and he also emphasized Mr. Bond alone.

So Fitbit recalled the image of James Bond—tall, strong, and really good-looking according to human aesthetics, with blond hair and blue eyes.

"He's pretty good for mating," Phoebe remarked matter-of-factly.

"..."

"But not as good as Merlin."

"........."

The girl who quickly came to a conclusion rubbed against Merlin's chest affectionately. The familiar smell filled her lungs, and Phoebe let out a long sigh of satisfaction.

Merlin is more suitable than anyone else, not because of breeding, but because Merlin is Merlin.

Phoebe couldn't help feeling a little sad at the thought.

"It's just," she sighed, "Why doesn't Merlin want to?"

Merlin wiped his forehead.

He had tried Phoebe euphemistically before, and found that this girl actually knew everything she should know—it was an adult cat after all, but small animals and humans had completely different worldviews, which made Phoebe still unable to think from a human perspective. this matter.

Speaking of this matter, Merlin decided to explain it clearly to her.

"The pregnancy period of a cat is two months," Merlin said. "During this time, what a mother cat has to do is to eat and drink well, find a safe place to give birth, and take care of it for one to two months after giving birth. Is that right, Phoebe?"

Phoebe nodded.

Although she has never given birth to a baby, at least she has seen other cats give birth.

"But the human pregnancy is nine months."

"Nine months?"

Phoebe couldn't believe it.

"And after a human child is born, you have to spend more than ten years taking care of him. Teach him life, teach him cultural knowledge and integrate into society."

"Merlin is also teaching me, but it didn't take me more than ten years to learn it."

"...It's different, Phoebe," Merlin laughed out loud, "You can already understand English, and you can read and write. A newborn child is a blank slate."

"How stupid."

Complaints are complaints, and Phoebe actually listened.

She thought for a moment: "Does Merlin find it troublesome?"

Merlin: "No."

Phoebe: "Huh?"

Merlin: "The value of human life is far more than reproduction. I hope you can find something more meaningful than raising a child."

He wasn't sure Phoebe could understand this.

In fact, Merlin still felt that it would be better to discuss this matter after she got to know more people and saw more social values.But this conflicts with safety education—you have to make Phoebe realize that her idea is not the best choice, otherwise what will you do if you are deceived by a man with ulterior motives.

Merlin could protect her forever, but he didn't want to lock a grown girl in his bedroom.

"Something more meaningful."

Phoebe repeated Merlin's words, and she thought about it.

"Merlin is busy with work every day, because work is something more meaningful."

"Not everyone's job is like that, but for me, I can make the world a better place."

"Save the world like Wonder Woman?"

"Unfortunately, I don't have superpowers."

And the field agents didn't have it either, Merlin hoped they would, that would be such a hassle.

Fortunately, Phoebe wasn't obsessed with superpowers. Instead, she showed a surprised expression: "Then Merlin is even stronger!"

Merlin: "You can also try hard."

Phoebe tilted her head subconsciously.

She was still hanging on Merlin's body, but the expression on her delicate face under the blond hair changed subtly.

Phoebe gradually understood Merlin's intentions.

Merlin is always busy, so he can sacrifice time for eating, sleeping and entertaining for work.When Phoebe was still a white cat, it was difficult for Phoebe to understand what he was doing. Wouldn't it be more comfortable for her to roll around and sleep at home every day?

But apparently humans and cats think very differently.

For cats, the most important thing is to reproduce-of course, those who have been neutered are ignored.As far as people are concerned, they all seem to have the same important things to do as Merlin, at least the humans that Phoebe has come into contact with are like this.

And Merlin's job is very critical. Living in the headquarters of the Royal Secret Service let Phoebe know what his job is.

"Okay," she said.

Although Phoebe still doesn't understand the conflict between saving the world and having a baby, don't be in a hurry, and go to find the answer if you don't have an answer. This is not something difficult to consider.

and……

"So, Roxy and Eggsy, and Harry," she said, "are also busy saving the world, aren't they?"

"They are more like Wonder Woman, who need to act under the fire of bullets."

"Then I also want to save the world," Phoebe said seriously, "I also want to be as useful as Merlin, to help Merlin relieve his worries and make many friends."

"..."

The girl who said this had clear eyes and a firm expression, as if what she said was not innocent words, but something taken for granted.

Merlin's relaxed expression slightly restrained.

He was silent for a moment, and then asked calmly, "Phoebe, you said you wanted to be an agent."

Phoebe: "Yeah."

Merlin said firmly: "No."

Phoebe: "..."

Hey?

Hey? ? ? ?

Her eyes widened in disbelief, Phoebe thought Merlin would be very happy, but he never expected him to refuse more decisively than before.

It's good to find the value of life.I don't want to have a baby, and I don't want to find value. What should I do?

Author has something to say: Phoebe: Merlin is such a hassle!
