"Hiss, it hurts a little!"

Sitting on the returning plane, Pierce was leaning on the sofa in the brightly lit cabin, Agent Hand was helping the chief to treat the wound.

Alcohol cleans the wound and it feels terrible. The stinging twitched Pierce's face.

The group of insurgents did not give him preferential treatment. His precious shirt was covered with blood. The group of guys should have beaten him. On his face, chest and back, there were shocking bruises.

"What the **** is going on? Pierce. How could they hold you so easily?"

Fury sat opposite Pierce and handed a glass of iced wine to his chief.

After being rescued, Pierce, finally relieved, reached for the glass and took a sip, calming his spirit. Walking through the ghost gate, Pierce was slightly tired.

Faced with Fury's inquiry, the 50-year-old man sighed with relief. He said to the agents in front of him:

"It happened very suddenly, and even this rebellion did not show any signs in advance."

The old man took the wine glass and shook it in his hand. He said:

"I don’t know how the militants knew my position. I rested in the embassy and suddenly heard an explosion. My lieutenant covered me and left, but as soon as the car left the embassy, ​​it was blocked At the intersection."

"I desperately knocked down a bastard, but they are too many people. After all, I am old and can't help myself."

Pierce blinked with bruised eyes. He smiled humorously and said:

"It may indeed be that I was out of luck, even the secret retreat route was "guessed" by the militants."

Agents glanced at each other, which was obviously just Pierce's joke.

For important people like him, the time and process of each trip are completely confidential. Such a thing as this one, if there is no internal response, certainly not so coincidental.

"They have begun to clear us on a targeted basis."

Agent Gatler, who was flying the plane, turned the plane into autopilot mode. He turned around and said to others:

"Sir Pierce is only the first one. If they succeed, Fury is the second one. It seems that their determination to dismember the faction of the Strategic Science Corps this time is very firm, and they will not hesitate to use this endless way."

"This is a good thing, Garrett."

Pierce, who was leaning on the chair, took a sip of wine, his eyes closed, as if resting. He said softly:

"The more fierce the opponent's means, the more they show that they still have fear in their hearts, and they are afraid of our comeback, making them make regrettable decisions."

"This is a good thing, we can use this to take advantage of their failure this time."

Pierce picked up the glass and said to others:

"Leave these political games to me. You have won the first battle and I will take over the next battle."

"Sir, would you slap their faces hard?"

Merlin asked, Pierce turned to look at him, then shook his head:

"Do not."

Pierce still had a flash of coldness in his bruised eyes, and he said softly:

"I will let them kneel on the ground and look up at us with a flattering smile, just like before. But it takes time, and any effective counterattack takes time to brew. During this period of time, we have to hide ourselves. "

"Yes, Pierce is right."

Fury turned around and said to others:

"Kohler and the people behind him will not give up so easily. After Pierce is rescued, their attack will only be wider and crazier. We have to survive this period of time."

"We are all far away from North America, they can't beat it."

Agent Hande said, holding his arms to Fury:

"Only you and Merlin stay on the land, so they will definitely target both of you."

"Ms. Carter is still here."

Fury said:

"I personally don't need to worry too much, and Kohler doesn't dare to persecute me blatantly. Mainly Merlin, he has no foundation, just a newcomer to the job, Kohler is easy to find his trouble. He just needs to take a criminal charge. , Find some more'evidence', Merlin's future is over, and the stain may be with him for life."

"Let him go to the European branch to hide for a while."

Butler lit a cigar, and he said to Fury and Merlin:

"Because of Ms. Carter's relationship, the relationship between MI6 and us has been good. As long as Merlin stays in London or Paris, I can be sure to protect him."

"What is your opinion? Merlin."

Fury pondered for a moment, he looked back at Merlin, he asked:

"Would you like to go to Butler? Hidden there for a while, it was just a task transfer, the process only took half a day, and Kohler couldn't stop it at all."

"A short period is a few months and a long period is a year."

Pierce, who had not spoken, also said:

"When you come back, boy. No one can bully you in New York."

"I personally have no problem."

Merlin shrugged and said to Fury:

"But I still have a task in my body. It's just the beginning now. Isn't it just halfway?"

"Guarantee safety is the first priority, Merlin."

Butler smoked a cigarette and spit out a ring of smoke. He did not know the specific task of Merlin, so he persuaded:

"You can wait until things are stable and come back to continue your mission. Or simply find someone else to replace you. Under Frey's, there are not untrustworthy people. There are more people who are more experienced than you."

"Merlin's mission is a little special."

Fury didn't make it clear, he was pondering, as if thinking.

But Gattler's words gave Merlin a flash of light. He glanced at Fury. The two went to the other side of the cabin. Merlin lowered his voice and said to Fury:

"I met a person a few days ago and he claimed to be a young wizard from England. But according to my observation, he lived very poorly and should not be an orthodox heritage. I mean, if you really need someone to continue me You can consider him."

"What's that person's name? Is it trustworthy?"

Fury's eyes lit up, he asked.

Merlin replied as usual:

"His name is John Constantine, he has short blond hair, he is bohemian, he likes to smoke silk cigarettes, and he is wearing a dirty yellow trench coat, dressed like a little ruffian, he is active near the **** kitchen, my assistant There are pictures of him in Hitville. As for his worth not to trust... this is up to you to judge."

Merlin coughed softly and said to Fury:

"Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely give this guy a chain on his leg, and would not give him any chance to do anything wrong. He has something in his hand, but he is a full-fledged slick head, likes to do some deceit, and declares to the public It’s a detective, but he doesn’t have any professional ethics...oh, in the end, he loves money."

"Well, it sounds like you're having a bit of a holiday with him."

Fury glanced at Merlin. He nodded and said to Merlin:

"Okay, I will take the time to look at it. If he fits, I will give him this task, but after you come back, you will still take over."

"One more thing, Fury."

Merlin's tone was more serious, he said to Fury:

"On the phone before, the cult that I said to you rooted in Hell's Kitchen is called Hellhound. They are really dangerous. Not only are they selling X, but the cult leader Morris is still using magic. I have met one by means of transforming ordinary people. It is tricky and violent. Ordinary agents are not opponents of the inferior and semi-devil at all."

"I don't know what they are planning, but I think that Morris spent so much energy, certainly not just for small profits. So, if you can, you should focus on them."

"Defeat them in advance, or simply kill the cult!"

A trace of killing flashed in Merlin's eyes, he said:

"Don't take it lightly."

"Oh, so, it's a hard stubble, right?"

Fury touched his chin, he said softly:

"That's better, let's deal with our brilliant and powerful Minister Kohler. He's such a great joy, and he's worried recently that he can't brush his presence."

Merlin froze for a moment. He looked at Fury. He really didn't understand. There was something in this guy's mind. This kind of conspiracy was just reaching out.

Sure enough, those who can become chief agents are not simple roles.

"Okay, your task here is suspended, and then go to Europe to stay."

Fury patted Merlin's shoulder and told him:

"Get along well with Gatler. He looks hard to get close to, but he is actually a cold-hearted person. He is a very good action expert. He can definitely teach you a lot."

"My cousin and brother-in-law, as well as Eric, will entrust you to take care of it."

Merlin said to Fury, who shook his head, he said:

"When Kohler is staring at you, the farther you are from them, the safer they will be."

"And as long as you talk everywhere, Kohler will not know about the existence of your cousin. The files of our people are kept secret, at least Kohler can't see it."

"Yes, if this is the case, then I'm relieved."

——————————————————————————

When Merlin returned to his house, it was already dawn.

Heatville slept in his room, and Merlin did not disturb him. The two of them just just met, not to mention, about the task transfer, Fury will explain to Hitville himself.

Merlin walked into his room, he simply packed his clothes, took out the weapons in the car, put them on the ceiling where he hid things, and took the mobile phone given to him by old Afu in the morning. At 8 o'clock, Merlin drove the car on time and left the block.

Today's weather is not very good, there is no sunshine, and when Merlin drove out, it even started to rain.

He first went to the St. Agnes Orphanage, picked up Eric, and then carried him to the Queens in the increasingly heavy rain.

"I'm going to Europe recently. This time I'm traveling for a long time."

While driving, Merlin looked at Eric around him. He said:

"You may have to take care of yourself for some time. Is there a problem?"

"No."

Eric lowered his head, took the new game console that Merlin bought him, and snapped the button, without raising his head, he said:

"I'm used to being alone. You're always busy anyway. But it doesn't matter. The orphanage is pretty good. I like that place. But the newcomer Sister Maggie is a little cold, not as good as Sister Pell."

"Maggie?"

Merlin was a little surprised when he heard the name.

Isn't Maggie the girl with some postpartum depression that he and Father Paul picked up that night?

Father Paul actually allowed her to return to the monastery after making a big mistake?

"Yes, Sister Maggie."

Eric stared at the game console, he complained to Merlin and said:

"She is very strict and she is still a teacher in the school. Since she came, everyone has been unhappy. However, Sister Maggie’s cooking is delicious, but Sister Maggie seems to be afraid of babies. Ada."

"Of course she is afraid, after all, she just abandoned her child."

Merlin said with emotion, when turning into the streets of Queens, Merlin remembered something, he lowered his voice and said to Eric:

"Have Crow's people appeared in recent days?"

"This is not there."

Hearing Crow’s name, Eric finally turned his attention away from the console. He looked at Merlin and replied in a low voice:

"Since I returned to the orphanage, they have never been there again. So I said that the orphanage is actually safe, I feel... it feels like someone is protecting that place, protecting the St. Matthew's Church and we."

"I will give you a phone number, write it down."

Merlin thought about it and gave Eric's phone number to Eric. He said to Eric:

"If you meet someone from Crow again, just make this call and tell him about Jin Jin's things when necessary. He will protect you."

"Well, I know."

Eric looked out of the car window, the street that seemed very strange under the torrential rain, he turned to look at Merlin, he said:

"Where are we going?"

"Go to my sister."

Merlin smiled and said to Eric:

"You have to call her sister too. Today we have a meal together. If you can perform well, I will buy you another game console before I leave. But playing games cannot affect your learning. , If I came back from Europe, and Father Paul told me that your grades had dropped, I would smash all your consoles!"

"Is the deal done?"

"Of course!"
