Time passed quickly, and in the process of rectifying the order of the sulfur port, a month passed in a blink of an eye.
As the heterogeneous cities slowly recovered from the shadow of disaster, and the environment and order there improved, in early July 2003, Merlin finally waited for something he had been resisting.
About his promotion.
Well, it is actually a good thing.
"This is your new office, Chief Merlin... Uh, no, Director Merlin."
The bald Agent Heathville smiled and entered the oversized office with a blank expression of Merlin. The 6th level interior agent chief and Merlin were considered acquaintances. Therefore, the name of the "Director" was full. Congratulations and goodwill.
But Merlin was not happy.
He followed Hitville into his new office. He pushed his glasses and said:
"You still call me Merlin... the name of the director, weird, and, I just don't involve the deputy director of administrative affairs."
"No, no, we are good friends after get off work, but when we go to work, we still have to follow the rules and regulations of SHIELD."
Hitville said seriously:
"In an official security organization, the distinction between superiors and subordinates is very important. Perhaps this is a bit rigid, but at least I think that maintaining the necessary respect for high-level agents can make our work more efficient and also allow us to Pay more attention to internal order."
He said to Merlin:
"It's like Director Fury, never let us call him Fury..."
"But I always call him Fury."
Merlin spit out a sentence. He knew that the interior agents in the office generally valued these "workplace rules", so he didn't correct Hitler's title. He stood in his new office and looked at the environment of the office. .
Frankly speaking, the office environment that Fury arranged for him is still quite good. It is located on the top floor of the Trident Building. It has excellent views and perfect lighting. The office facilities are all available, comfortable sofas, mahogany desks, There are also several file cabinets that look quite serious, as well as an attached bathroom and a rest room.
Probably to allow Merlin to rest in the office when working overtime.
"This place is good."
Merlin says:
"Much better than my office in S.D.O.L.D."
"This place has been vacant since the Trident Building was built."
Hitville said behind Merlin:
"We are also happy to see that it finally ushered in a master. Also, Director Merlin, according to the title and benefits of SHIELD, you can own a new official car and a new apartment, Director Fury ordered However, you can select a few special jobs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs as work assistants."
The Indian-American agent took out a tablet and swiped on it, saying:
"There is also the priority to use business jets. If necessary, you can designate a business jet as your private travel tool."
"Do not."
Merlin leaned on the desk and he told Hitville:
"My house is very comfortable. I have no plans to move for the time being. My car is not bad. I don't have to change the car. As for the assistant, I have a subordinate and she will come this afternoon. The Trident Mansion will perform his duties. You may have to trouble you by then. Is it a private jet?"
Merlin shook his head:
"Give it to someone more in need, I can't use that thing."
"Uh, okay."
Hitville also pushed his own gold glasses. He looked at Merlin, and then suggested:
"If you don't want to change the car, then I suggest that you send the car to the logistics department, and our support agent will carry out a comprehensive safety transformation of your car."
"Better power system, complete bulletproof function, and self-defense weapon system, and short-range flight system that has only recently entered the application stage, more comfortable seats, more convenient built-in communication...I know, you may not use To these, but is it better than nothing?"
"okay."
Merlin took the key of his SUV from his pocket and threw it to Hitville. He said:
"Then this will trouble you."
"Ok."
The house agent said to Merlin:
"I will do well, Mr. Secretary."
"It's the deputy director."
Merlin reminded:
"Don't call it wrong, Hitville, especially when Fury was there, I don't want him to think that I meant to rob the class."
"No, I'm not so careful."
At the moment when Merlin's voice just fell, Fury's voice rang at the door of his office. The real Mr. Secretary held a hot drink and leaned on the door of Merlin's office. He gave Silvert a glance, and the latter immediately whispered. Quietly exited the office.
"How does the new place feel?"
Fury had a hot drink, and he asked:
"A lot better than your original small underground house?"
"It's very good, so good that it disgusts me a little."
Merlin sighed and sat on the sofa. He put his feet on the table of the black coffee table in front of him. He said to Fury:
"Trapped me in this exquisite bird cage, and old Pierce is finally satisfied?"
"Don't complain so much, Merlin."
Fury sat in Merlin's chair, and he turned around, seemingly helping Merlin to test the performance of the office chair. He said:
"Pierce just wants you to shine in a more suitable position. He is a kind of old-school person who thinks that doing good things will pay off, especially heroes who are willing to make sacrifices for the stability of social order. The contribution matches the power and status."
"Okay, don't say that."
Fury looked at Merlin's disapproving expression. He changed the subject decisively. He put his hands on the table and said to Merlin:
"I came to you because I just finished talking with Agent Dugan, and he asked me to congratulate you, congratulations on becoming the second 9-level agent after him, and the first superintendent of SHIELD Deputy Director of Affairs...Of course, I have to tell you about your division of power and scope of work."
"Hear your ears and listen."
Merlin pulled out a cigarette and played with it at the tip of his finger, he said:
"In addition to being directly responsible for S.D.O.L.D., what else do you need me to do?"
"Several containment sites, I refer to Gudao Prison, Ghost Base, and Base 084. There is also a'supernatural affairs big database' currently under construction, and there is now a prototype supernatural incident contact reception and management department. It is a finishing department specially prepared for heterogeneous affairs and supernatural events."
Frey, like several family treasures, said a lot of projects, he said to Merlin:
"It's all related to what you are good at. You can understand that I have stripped out all the departments related to supernatural events in SHIELD and then handed it to you."
Mr. Secretary leaned on Merlin's chair. He said slowly:
"From this sulfur port incident, I once again felt the kind of embarrassment that I couldn't get started. Merlin, especially when I watched and directed the agents to enter the sulfur port defense, and the blood illusion invaded, I was a bit confused.. . This is a warning, which shows that I don’t understand that world, at least not as well as I think in my own imagination."
"Professional things have to be left to professional people to do. Now Sulphur Port has become a member of our order system, which is enough to prove your ability."
Fury took a hot drink and looked at Merlin with one eye, he said:
"After 11 years of joining S.H.I.E.L.D., you can already stand alone. And there are very few people who can reassure me, Merlin, you are one of them."
"It really flatters me."
Merlin put the cigarette in the corner of his mouth, and the flame suddenly jumped to light the cigarette. In the smoke, Merlin's face seemed to be blurred, he said to Fury:
"Since you trust me so much, I can’t let you down... I will try my best, but I have a request. I read your work schedule and I find that you spend almost two thirds of your time every day I’m attending various meetings, Fury, I don’t want to waste time on these talk items, so I hope I can appoint my assistant to attend these meetings instead of me.
He sincerely said to Fury:
"I prefer to do something more direct and more helpful to our organization."
Facing Merlin's request, Fury hesitated for a moment, then nodded:
"In addition to the executive meeting of the World Security Council, you can let Sharon take the place of you for other meetings. If some meetings require you to attend, I will let Hill inform you in advance."
"Very well, I know you are reliable, Fury."
Merlin's expression became lighter, he said to Fury:
"Exactly, you are here, I will tell you my follow-up division of S.D.O.L.D., of course, I will submit a formal document to you later."
"Well, say it."
Fury looked at his watch and he said:
"After 15 minutes I have an internal security meeting to host, and time should be enough."
"I plan to adjust the internal structure of S.D.O.L.D. to allow Coulson to take my place. He is responsible for an overview of the situation and managing ghost bases related to the affairs of mutants."
Merlin stroking the Kabai ring on his little finger, he said to Fury:
"Melinda as his assistant is responsible for the affairs of the other three branches of the East Coast. As for the commanders of the three branches, I also have candidates."
"Agent Lincoln will be transferred to the Miami branch, Agent Tripp will be in Philadelphia, Agent Mike will be in Atlanta, Agent Barbie Meister will be in charge of S.D.O.L.D.'s current 10 field teams, and Agent Jimmy will be in charge of S.D.O.L.D. logistics and support."
"This is the arrangement of the command line. Of course, before these commanders perform their duties, their agent level needs to be upgraded. Coulson and Melinda will be upgraded to level 7. Sharon, as my assistant, will also Be promoted to level 7, and others will be referred to level 5."
Merlin said methodically:
"In addition, they also need to return to Aegis Academy for short-term management and command training. Next I plan to establish the same branch on the west coast as the east coast, in order to make the west coast a little chaotic and heterogeneous environment, Also included in our monitoring and management."
"Of course, this expansion means that SDOLD will have a shortage of personnel, so in the preparatory period in recent months, I will also recruit a new batch of agents from the Secret Service Academy to enter my department... er , In my subordinate department."
"Sounds no problem."
Fury said:
"But you have to learn to let go, Merlin, you have to trust your subordinates. Just like Naxin, I believe that Coleson and Melinda, who were trained by you, can do it independently, you have to focus on On more important things, such as the'dress up' plan."
The Secretary stood up and said:
"Whether it's expansion or monitoring, your own strength is the most important, especially when faced with unruly aliens, it doesn't make sense to reason with them. You understand this better than me."
"On this point, I also have plans."
Merlin took Fury to the door, he said softly:
"I plan to choose a group of people who can be reused from the prisoners in the isolated island prison and the ghost base."
"Your disciple, Fury, the action commander of the Tianyan Society Amanda Waller has a plan called'Suicide Squad'. Although I don't agree with the method of forcible control, at this stage of urgent need for manpower , I think maybe we can learn a little bit of experience from it."
Fury's footsteps stopped, and he looked back at Merlin. He said seriously and said seriously:
"If you think it's necessary, you do it, but once something goes wrong, you have to take responsibility. Merlin, I used to give you the pot, now you have to learn to back the pot for your subordinates, this Is what a good leader must do..."
Speaking of which, Fury patted Merlin's shoulder eccentrically. He said:
"I believe that you will soon realize how I felt at the beginning. Haha, do a good job in the new position. Seriously, you came here and really made my pressure a lot less."
"Is it because there is no need to back the pot, so the pressure is much lower?"
Merlin watched Fury leave briskly, he whispered, and then returned to his office.
Fury has told him that regarding his division of powers, Merlin will have to spend some time to consider how the next work should begin.
"Mr. Merlin, there is a new call."
But just when Merlin drew a simple system diagram in his notebook, a communication request from Central Asia popped up on Icarus' lens.
Merlin raised his head and connected to the communication. At the next moment, Gordon's face without eyes appeared in front of Merlin. The leader of the afterlife organization said to Merlin:
"The messenger of the alien dynasty has moved from Attila to the earth."
"She is resting with me, maybe you should take the time to come over, or send someone to come."
"Well, let me go, about ten minutes later."
Merlin was playing with the new agent identity card in his hand. The Roman numeral 9 looked so prominent. He said to Gordon:
"I am also looking forward to what kind of new news this ambassador can bring us."
