Coulson, who rushed to the office after receiving Amber's news, opened the door and saw Joanna sitting at the table drinking coffee leisurely.Reflexively, he turned to look at Amber.I saw Amber shut his mouth tightly and shook his head at him.
Coulson's heart sank, but he still acted casually.He walked briskly to the water dispenser, took out a disposable drinking cup from the cabinet, and then slowly made himself a cup of coffee.During this period, he has been paying attention to Joanna's movements.
And Joanna didn't say anything, just put down her glass and waited quietly for Coulson.It looked like she was ready to speak.
Aware of this, Coulson took two sips of coffee, put down the cup, and looked back at Joanna: "What happened?"
Joanna's face was calm, showing an unprecedented seriousness and calmness: "Agent Coulson, maybe the mission you arranged for me... has to be terminated."
Coulson frowned: "What do you mean?"
"I was exposed." Joanna was very calm, without any panic after her identity was exposed.
"When did this happen?"
"last night."
"Last night?" Coulson looked back at Amber reflexively.
Amber shrugged: "I don't know when the surveillance in her house was dismantled. And the surveillance alarm didn't go off. I came to work early in the morning, and I haven't had time to check yesterday's video surveillance..."
Coulson sighed softly, and looked back at Joanna with a bit of embarrassment on his face.
Joanna was calmer than Coulson imagined. She didn't make a scene or get angry again after knowing that S.H.I.E.L.D. was monitoring her, as Coulson imagined.Events in Boston seemed to have calmed her down more than before.
Joanna looked at Coulson with a calm tone: "I already know about the monitoring. I hate to understand your approach, although I don't agree with it."
"Joanna, how did you expose|exposed?" Coulson knew that he should take care of Joanna's emotions at this moment, first apologize or appease her, but he couldn't stop thinking about the task.It has been more than 10 hours since Joanna's identity was exposed. This kind of thing is simply unimaginable when agents are performing tasks.
"Henry Morgan, remember?" Joanna finally frowned slightly when she mentioned Henry's name, "To be honest, I don't even remember his name. After all, this name is really too common. He and I used to We met once on the subway, and you guys checked him out afterward, right? He was following me yesterday and Steve found out. So we talked. Steve brought Henry to my house to talk to him I confront."
"He knows you're from S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
"Can you blame me? It's not that you slipped your mouth when you went to investigate him."
Coulson frowned: "I just sent someone to investigate him, and I haven't had any contact with him."
Joanna's calm expression finally had a different expression: "But he said that the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. warned him to stay away from me and not to hinder my work."
This time, Coulson's expression can be called dignified.He had some vague, not-so-optimistic guesses.If Henry didn't lie, then it should be the same group who contacted Henry and attacked Joanna in Boston.The purpose is very simple, that is, to hope that SHIELD's plan to recruit Captain America will fail.
And these problems are obviously not something that he or Joanna can solve alone.
Coulson temporarily suppressed the disturbing guesses in his heart, and asked in a soft tone: "After the captain knew your identity, he didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
Joanna shook her head lightly: "I only told him that I was an employee of S.H.I.E.L.D., and I didn't know he was Captain America. At that time, I couldn't think of any other way, so I could only say that... I met him by chance I was discovered by S.H.I.E.L.D., so S.H.I.E.L.D. started monitoring me."
From this point of view, Joanna is not really exposed|exposed.No wonder Captain America hasn't seen any changes after 10 hours.Thinking of this, Coulson took a long breath: "Since this is the case, then don't..."
"I don't want to do it anymore." Joanna interrupted Coulson, looking at Coulson seriously, "Steve is a good man, he admitted that he was Captain America when there was no need to reveal his identity to me .I don't want to lie to him again, this feels terrible. I can't lie to him anymore, and you shouldn't lie to him again. If you want to recruit him, you should openly negotiate with him on salary terms."
Joanna has indeed become calmer than before, but she is still as naive as ever in the analysis of the problem.Coulson didn't want to look like a villain who lied to Captain America, but he said anyway, "So what do you want? Confess to Captain? Tell him what we've done? Tell him what you've done?"
Joanna shivered, and her momentum weakened: "Nor...nor... But, I don't want to continue to lie."
"The lie has not been exposed. Even if you no longer have contact with him, the lie still exists. Isn't that still cheating? If you don't take the initiative to lie and let the other party misunderstand it, isn't it cheating?" Coulson smiled, "Joanna, you Should have looked at the way Natasha works, she's the best liar. Yet she's always telling the truth. That's what's really scary.”
Joanna was silent.She didn't want to lie to Steve anymore, but... ran to Steve and told everything?She didn't even dare to think about it.It’s true that Mrs. Steve is very good, but when he knows that he has designed him from the beginning, the first meeting when he was drunk, you and me on the Internet... If he knew that all these were carefully planned, he would still Can he maintain her like he is now?put up with her?
Joanna didn't want to verify the answer to this question, nor did she dare to.
Coulson looked at the frustrated Joanna and thought to himself.As far as Joanna's current state is concerned, it is definitely not suitable to continue the task.If you don't do it well, you will have to expose all of them.Coulson wasn't worried about Joanna's personal safety. Based on what S.H.I.E.L.D. knew about Captain America, even if everything was exposed, Captain America wouldn't take action against a woman who couldn't fight back.But... it's different with S.H.I.E.L.D.
Perhaps Captain America will not come to trouble S.H.I.E.L.D. If he considers the actual situation in the 21st century, he will most likely not confront S.H.I.E.L.D. head-on.But for S.H.I.E.L.D.... missing Captain America has become the result they have to face.And this result, not only SHIELD is unwilling to face it, but Coulson is also unwilling to face it out of personal feelings!
Coulson thought for a long time, and finally asked softly: "Joanna, are you willing to leave New York?"
"what?"
"Leave New York and go to Washington. You won't lose your job, and you can avoid contact with Captain America again." As soon as Coulson said this, he felt that this was the best solution, "Stay in New York, you There is bound to be further contact with Captain America. But if you go to Washington, even if he wants to contact you again, it will be much more troublesome. At least according to the data, Captain America is a cautious person, he will not blindly follow you Washington."
Joanna blinked, feeling a little moved for some reason.
Seeing that Joanna didn't quite understand, Coulson patiently continued to explain: "Based on what you explained to the captain, the captain will definitely think that the S.H.I.E.L.D. , we did carry out a certain degree of surveillance. Knowing that your identity was exposed and that you might be used by S.H.I.E.L.D., it was a natural decision to transfer you. At least, that would be what I thought The first plan. Therefore, even if it is to avoid suspicion of the captain, you should go to Washington right now."
Joanna looked at Coulson.She knew what Coulson said was reasonable, and she thought calmly that this was indeed the best solution.However, Joanna didn't want to leave New York at all, she didn't want to leave the city she was already familiar with.
Seeing that Joanna fell silent, Coulson thought it was because she was worried about her future work, so he comforted him: "Remember the last time I told you about going to Washington? We do have a job for you, I think you Very suitable for that job. Joanna, clerical work is not for you, it is not enough for you to develop your talents."
Joanna said in a muffled voice: "But I think it's pretty good, don't you think Miss Pep is also doing pretty well?"
Coulson pursed his lips: "She has an ambiguous relationship with Stark, what about you? Are you planning to have an ambiguous relationship with the person in charge of your administrative department?"
Joanna's face creased.
"I don't mean to belittle your current job. Of course, office work is very important. But, Joanna, there is a place that is more suitable for you in Washington." Coulson carefully looked at Joanna's face, and continued to persuade, " I will explain the situation to the above, once you accept that new job, no one will assign you to do these agents again. I didn't think well in the first place, I really shouldn't let you in this muddy water .”
Joanna took a deep breath: "When will I leave? My house in Queens hasn't been dealt with yet."
"At any time. If necessary, I can arrange someone to handle it for you."
Joanna shook her head: "Give me some time. I want to tidy up myself."
Coulson nodded: "That's good. The normal job transfer procedures of S.H.I.E.L.D. will take about two weeks. Going through the normal process can also relieve some of Captain America's doubts."
Joanna no longer discusses the topic.She just nodded to Coulson and Amber, and left the office alone.
On the way back to the administration department, she kept organizing her New York belongings in her mind.Joanna thought, now that she has done a good job of psychological preparation, it may not be so difficult to accept when she goes home to pack her things.
There are not many things to move in the office, but in the rented house in Queens, there are a lot of appliances and furniture waiting to be cleaned up one by one.Most of the things in Brooklyn were bought by S.H.I.E.L.D., and she didn't want to take any of them away.But the puppy that hasn't gotten around to being named...
Joanna thought for a while and took out her phone.
