Melinda's self-introduction did not last long.
Because Merlin asked her a very sharp question.
"Melinda, I'm curious, what kind of work do your parents do?"
Merlin put down Melinda's file, his hands on the table, his eyes behind the glasses stared at the girl in front of him, he asked softly:
"And, why did you choose the agent? Your file shows that you have won the international figure skating award. A beautiful girl like you, becoming a remote mobilizer or an actor, is obviously more promising than being an agent. "
"Can I not answer this question?"
Melinda's expression was a little tangled, which made Colson sitting next to her a little surprised and curious.
The two were close friends in the Secret Service Academy. In the special training that was extended to 8 months, Coulson had never seen a generous personality, and the super-executive Melinda showed such a tangled expression.
"No, you have to answer."
Merlin said flatly:
"You may not be well aware of the special affairs that my action team is responsible for. Agent Coleson should have some knowledge about this."
"In the face of the special events we deal with, there are a lot of unexpected situations. I must make sure that I really understand my subordinates... you can refuse, Melinda, but I will keep your files Return to Director Fury."
"plum."
Colson patted Melinda's arm with some concern. The latter gritted his teeth, raised his head, and looked at Merlin's sharp eyes that seemed to reach people's hearts.
After a few seconds, she whispered reluctantly:
"My father is a businessman, my mother... is a senior field agent of the Strategic Science Corps, and has served under Ms. Carter for more than 25 years. The reason I chose to become an agent was when I graduated from college, Ms. Carter came to me Having talked, she said that I have a certain talent, so I persuaded me to join SHIELD."
"So it turns out."
Merlin's inner doubts were solved.
He nodded and asked again:
"Do you know Miss Sharon?"
"understanding."
Melinda said blankly:
"We grew up together in a community. Sharon took the entrance exam for the SHIELD Secret Service College this year. Maybe she will become a member of SHIELD next year or the year after."
"well."
Merlin picked up the file in his hand and returned it to the two newcomers in front of him. He looked at the watch on his wrist and said to them:
"Let's go through the onboarding procedures now. It's exactly a new task at 3 o'clock this afternoon. We will meet at the entrance of the St. Agnes Monastery in Hell's Kitchen, and remember to bring a matching gun."
"Did you two have a problem?"
Merlin drank the water in the glass at hand, he stood up, took out his handbag, and looked at the two new people in front of him.
Of course they have no problems.
"See you in the afternoon."
Merlin waved at them, then pushed open the door, and just walked away.
Watching Merlin leave, in the office, Agent Melinda turned her head to look at her friend. She whispered:
"He was Merlin who took you to the mission before? You said he took part in the war with the Cree? Why didn't I look too much... He was too young, and, other agents we have seen Different."
"That's how you haven't seen him perform tasks."
Coulson recalled his experiences in Pagazoski Land and Louisiana, he said to Melinda:
"Our trainees could have graduated in 6 months. Why are there two more months of special training? It is because Chief Merlin knocked down nearly 40 students... so Director Frey thinks our training Not enough."
"And he personally arrested a Cree captain of the Star Agents, which many people know. In the end, Chief Merlin he... how to say? I think he has some other weird abilities."
Colson frowned and packed his files. He said to Melinda:
"I've seen it with his own eyes, the scene where he disappeared in front of my eyes. There are also Natasha and Barton instructors. They also respected Chief Merlin and thought he was a very good field agent. I think this has already explained many problems. Now."
"Great is great."
Melinda pursed her lips, and the young girl said:
"But he still feels weird."
"No stranger than you. You never told me that your mother is also an agent."
Coulson accidentally said to Melinda:
"I always thought you were an ordinary girl. I didn't expect you to have a background."
"Come on, Coulson."
Melinda did not want to talk about this issue. She flicked her short hair and said:
"In this line, having a background is not a good thing, which means that you have to work several times to make your peers face you. I did not hide it on purpose, my mother said, before I became a senior agent, She doesn’t want me to get special care for her reasons."
"why?"
Colson asked like a curious baby, Melinda's face changed a bit, she said:
"Because of the bullets that fly, you won't bypass you because you have a background. Ms. Carter also said that the agent is still not as famous as possible."
"Let's go and go through the onboarding procedures, and then go to dinner to celebrate our onboarding. I don't want to miss the first official task in the afternoon."
—
At the St. Agnes Abbey, Merlin took Eric out, and asked Father Paul to ask about Eric’s recent achievements.
This 14-year-old child adopted by him is not a genius, but he is also a very good student. Although Merlin was neglected to take care of him due to various emergencies in the past, he took good care of himself and also achieved excellent results after contacting 5 times.
This satisfied Merlin, so he took little Eric to eat a lobster dinner, and bought him several newly released games as a reward.
When the time was approaching 3 o'clock, he sent Eric to his cousin May's house, and then drove back to St. Agnes Monastery.
Coulson and Melinda were already waiting for him at the gate of the monastery.
They came by car.
Merlin saw the car that had not been seen for 6 years.
That's Lola.
The red one, the classic Corvette of 1962, has a license plate and is well maintained.
When Merlin stepped forward, he held out his hand and stroked Lola's body like he once did, under the glasses, a moment of nostalgia flashed away.
"Good car."
He said to Coulson, who was standing by the car, and then took two clips filled with holy silver bullets from his pocket and threw them to Coulson and Melinda:
"Put this on! Then follow me."
Coulson did not hesitate and quickly changed the magazine. While Melinda looked at the strange silver bullet in the magazine, she asked Merlin in front of her:
"What is this? Sir."
"Holy Silver Bullet."
Merlin gave a short answer, then waved at them and motioned them to get on the bus.
Lola is a two-seater old sports car that can't fit three people, so this time, Merlin will drive his own car.
After Fury became the director, Merlin also benefited.
He got a brand new Ford car with black body, streamlined design, full of power, and most importantly, low-key enough.
Merlin started the car, turned a corner on the streets of Hell's Kitchen, and drove deeper into the most chaotic neighborhood in New York. In the back seat, Melinda was still asking:
"What is the holy silver bullet? Sir, is this bullet a special bullet?"
"This is against alien weapons."
Merlin turned the steering wheel and said to the newcomer behind him:
"When you joined the job, you should have been told something, and I won't repeat it. What I want to tell you is that my team deals with the troubles that ordinary people can't deal with. Those who are hidden in the crowd , Those creatures born in the dark, and some weird supernatural events, etc., these are the things you will face in the future."
"Ordinary bullets can hardly hurt them, but holy silver bullets can. The holy silver bullets this time are my support."
Merlin said softly:
"The next time you receive the bullets, remember to show your ID and explain why. At the same time, the logistics department will distribute a certain amount of holy silver bullets to you. But the holy silver produced by the machinery is very formulaic and has no soul... Therefore, you better take some time to learn how to make holy silver weapons yourself."
"This is a little too idealistic, right?"
Melinda pursed her lips and reached out to load the holy silver magazine into the matching gun.
Hearing her complaint, Merlin smiled and said:
"You can all accept that there are aliens in the world, why can't you accept idealism? Listen to me, new people, when you are facing those aliens, materialism can hardly protect you."
Ten minutes later, Merlin's car stopped at the door of the famous Josie Bar in Hell's Kitchen. Merlin took Colson and Melinda into this slightly shabby bar.
It will be in the afternoon, there are few people in the bar, and the voice is quiet.
Merlin took a look around and then went directly to the corner of the bar. In the deck there was a guy in a yellow trench coat who was drinking alone.
"Speak, Zha Kang, what's the trouble again?"
Merlin sat across from the guy who was drinking, and he looked at Constantine who looked haggard in front of his eyes.
This guy is now a mystery adviser to S.H.I.E.L.D. and receives a monthly allowance from S.H.I.E.L.D., and from time to time, he tries to cheat some funds from Fury.
His half-dead detective office is still in business. I heard that the business has been quite good recently. This guy has solved a few tricky spiritual events in the past few months, so at least in Manhattan, he already has some reputation. .
Some people call him "Demon Exorcist", and of course more people call him "Jack Kang". I have to say that this nickname is really appropriate.
And because of Constantine's lavish spending habits, and the slutty guy who always likes to provoke some troublesome women, Merlin will feel that he is quite downcast whenever he sees him.
The two had become Liangzi before, but after the half-magic event, they became colleagues.
Although the relationship is not friendly, it is also a real acquaintance.
"It is you."
Constantine picked up the glass and glanced at Merlin, quickly losing interest. His gaze fell on the two newcomers behind Merlin, and then quickly gathered on Melinda's face. The gaze went all the way down, staying on the chest for a few seconds, and put it on the girl's slim waist. on.
This very impolite look immediately attracted Melinda's glare.
"I said who Fury would send to solve the trouble...it turned out to be you."
Zakang withdrew his aggressive look. He reached out and touched it in the pockets of the trench coat, and finally found a crumpled note, which he threw to Merlin.
Merlin picked up the note and spread it out in his hands, and found it to be a weird sign.
A dark red ring dotted with an inverted pentagram.
This is the sign of the devil. In the knowledge of magic, the pentagram is often associated with these things.
"I found it on the edge of Hell's Kitchen."
Constantine waved his hand and called for another glass of wine. He said to Merlin:
"A group of little use this thing as a logo on their bodies. I guess those idiots don't understand the meaning of this logo at all. But it's not accidental that it appeared in Manhattan, especially after the death of the rabid Morris, the supernatural power of Hell's Kitchen has already It was a great blow... The appearance of this logo probably represented some big figures and stared at this place."
"This is your job, Constantine!"
Merlin frowned and said:
"We pay you money every month, but it's not for you to dedicate your work to other people. You can't just throw a clue to me like this, any other information?"
"Damn, you demand so much!"
Zakang scolded and said:
"There is a warehouse at the intersection of 13th and 7th streets, which is the base camp of the little bastards, you can go and see. Maybe you can find something. As for why I want to push this work..."
He glanced at Merlin, he said:
"Your ancestral home is'hell', Merlin. Shouldn't you give it to you when dealing with your fellow countrymen?"
Constantine's statement left Coleson and Melinda behind Merlin blank, but Merlin's expression became silent and serious. After a while, he said to Constantine:
"Okay, I'll deal with it. But your attitude makes me very uncomfortable, so this time I won't pay for your alcohol. Think of it yourself."
"Hi Man! Don't be so stingy!"
Zakang's expression suddenly became richer, he said to Merlin:
"I've been a little tight lately. Otherwise, if you help me pay, I will tell you something you must be interested in, OK?"
"..."
Merlin looked suspiciously at Zake Kang with a smirk in front of him. After a while, he put some money on the table. Zakang glanced and shook his head:
"I owe several drinks, this is not enough."
"Damn it!"
Merlin scolded, and took out some more money and put it on the table.
Zakang nodded in satisfaction, he looked around, lowered his voice, and said to Merlin:
"Be careful recently...can't use it without magic, or just go out and hide."
"Magic Congress, staring at you."
