At 11 o'clock in the evening, the pointer of the clock hanging on the wall in Fury's office had just crossed the node, and the door was pushed open.
In Fury's gaze, Merlin in a trench coat appeared in his office with the sound of a cane on the ground.
Fury seemed ready for Merlin's arrival. He looked at his best subordinate. He saw Merlin's pale face, slightly loose hair, and bad mental state.
This means that Merlin has not recovered from his physical weakness, and it also means that Merlin has not taken a good rest these days.
Of course, this may also be because he just experienced some bad things.
Merlin walked into Fury's office. He reached out and closed the door, sat in the chair opposite Fury, and set aside the cane in his hand. He looked up and looked at Fury.
The latter reached out and picked up two documents from his hand, and placed it in silence before Merlin's eyes.
Merlin looked at the file, it was the personnel file, he almost didn't need to open it, he knew what was in it. It seems that Fury also knows why he came here tonight.
"I'm sorry, Merlin."
Fury placed his fingers on the table with his fingers interlaced. He said sincerely:
"Things about Richard and Mary..."
"I don't want these."
Merlin didn't move the papers on the table. He looked at Fury. Behind the frameless lenses, a flash of light flickered in those eyes, like a burning flame.
In an indifferent tone, he said to Fury:
"My brother-in-law lost his only relative a few hours ago."
"My nephew lost his parents a few hours ago."
"My sister is a soft-hearted and emotionally fragile person, and I, too, have lost two friends whom I have just met and who are not very familiar...family."
"I mean..."
Merlin's swollen hands clasped on his knees. He looked at Fury. The light above his head jumped a dim light on his pale face. He said:
"How do you let me... how to tell them this?"
Fury looked at Merlin's calm face, and the secretary, who already knew Merlin's mood changes, had a headache, because he realized that tonight, Merlin came to ask for answers and truth.
But the problem is that Fury doesn't have that stuff.
The accident of Richard and Mary came too suddenly, with no signs.
But anyone with a little brain will not think this is just a normal crash.
There is a hidden truth in this, but the problem is that the cruel reality does not seem to leave Fury enough time to find the truth buried behind this accident.
"Teach me, Fury."
Merlin took off his glasses, and he took the handkerchief from his pocket. While wiping the lens, he looked at Fury with his ember burning eyes, and his voice became softer.
It was like being afraid to disturb the two weeping ghosts.
"You have participated in the war, you must have witnessed the death of many companions and friends. Teach me how you can tell these desperate relatives about the news about death without hurting others. ...How did you survive the pain of losing friends and family?"
"You should calm down."
Fury said:
"I didn't ask you to tell Ms. May and Mr. Ben about the accident of their loved ones. This kind of thing has someone..."
"enough!"
Before Fury had finished, Merlin interrupted.
The secret agent of level 7 said to Fury with a voice that suppressed anger and grief:
"The day I became an agent, I knew that even if we risked our lives to do many terrible but correct things, no matter how many people we saved or killed, once we got home, These things are meaningless."
"I also follow my instructions to separate my work from my family. I can realize the threat that my work brings, and I work hard to protect the people I value. But Fury.. . This time, it's different."
Merlin looked at the personnel file on the table and said:
"Although I have only met them once, you should know that you already know... they are my family, Fury."
"I'm here to ask you a question. I hope to go back with the answer. I hope that I will tell my sister and brother-in-law after the matter is completely resolved, so... please tell me ."
Merlin looked up, he looked at Fury, he said:
"Who did it?"
"I don't know, Merlin."
Fury sighed, the agent chief who always had a winning ticket seemed to be frustrated at this moment.
He leaned on his seat, he looked at Merlin, he said:
"I really don't know. From the incident, until now, less than 7 hours have passed, I just received the site survey report, there is no useful information in the aircraft's black box, I know this accident is not accidental , I also want the truth, they are my subordinates, you know me, if I can, I will give everything to save them."
"But the problem now is that disaster has already happened, if you want to know the truth and the answer."
Fury knocked on the table, he said to Merlin:
"You must give me at least some time."
"You let Richard and Mary help you grow dragons, Fury."
Merlin closed his eyes. He said wearily:
"I can understand your thoughts, and I know the purpose of doing so. But if their work is really so important, you should at least pay more attention to them, rather than trying to make up for it after bad things happen."
"Who told you that?"
Fury's eyes narrowed at this moment. He looked at Merlin, and he asked:
"How do you know the work of Richard and Mary? Did they tell you?"
"At this time, are you only concerned about your secrets?"
Under Fury's watch, Merlin asked:
"Do you know how much unfriendly eyes will be attracted by a Muggle organization to raise dragons in private?"
"I haven't reminded you, Fury! South America also has their magical organization, and the wandering black wizards will get what they need at any cost. You think you are doing it confidential enough, but you can search the memory. In front of the wizard, everything you do is meaningless!"
"boom"
Something was thrown on Fury's table.
It was a twisted metal fan blade that looked like a component in an aircraft engine. Merlin sat in a chair and straightened his body. He said to Fury:
"Your technical test is unresponsive. It's no accident that Richard and Mary's planes got out of control. A wizard moved into the plane. It was a deformation spell that destroyed the plane's engine..."
Merlin looked at Fury, his face full of disappointment.
"You are trying to master the power that you don’t understand at all, nor should you touch your finger, but you don’t have enough power to protect your secrets. You don’t even want to tell me the dangerous things you are doing! If you tell me, this one Things will not happen."
Merlin's tone became cold:
"It was your wanton behavior that killed them! Fury."
Merlin's scolding echoed in the office, but Fury didn't respond immediately. Instead, he looked at the twisted blade of wind on the table, and he fell into a kind of thinking.
"Why not talk? Fury."
Merlin asked:
"Are you confessing?"
"I was just thinking, who exactly planned all this."
Fury stretched his hand against the cold wreck, he glanced at Merlin, and he said firmly:
"But from what I have seen so far, it is clear that someone is deliberately misleading you, Merlin."
"what?"
Merlin frowned.
Fury stopped. He turned the computer screen over and showed several pieces of information on the screen to Merlin. He said:
"Richard and Mary’s task of feeding and observing the wasps ended as early as 5 months ago. The dragons were handed over to other biologists. Your loved ones were not killed by those dragons, at least That is not the main reason."
Fury's one eye was full of calm thinking. He whispered:
"But the envoys behind the scenes obviously knew you existed, and they also knew your relationship with the Richards. They knew that after you heard about the accident, they would definitely go to see it in person, so they deliberately left these traces. Your attention has shifted to things related to magic, and they obviously don’t want you to see the truth, Merlin.

"Of course, I do not rule out that there is indeed the possibility of black wizards participating in this matter."
Merlin glanced at Fry, and he clicked on the document on the computer. Indeed, as Fry said, Richard and Mary withdrew from the research project of the wasp 5 months ago, but at the end of those few pages of documents , Merlin noticed a sign marked "S".
That should be the last task of Richard and Mary before death.
"what is this?"
Merlin pointed to the secret mission, he asked:
"Is it another secret that was concealed?"
"That's not what you should know."
Fury said:
"Don't ask, I won't tell you."
"I have the right to know!"
Merlin said stubbornly:
"If Richard and Mary died because of it, then I have the right to know!"
"You are just blinded by anger and pain."
Fury said uncomfortably:
"What you should do now is to go home and have a good night's sleep to wake yourself up. You are being led by the black hands behind the scenes. Even the quarrel between you and me may be their plan."
After speaking, Fury's tone became milder, and he persuaded Merlin that:
"Trust me, Merlin, give me a little confidence."
"You realize that you are at the center of the conspiracy, and what you have to do is not to try to break the game arbitrarily, but to calm down and observe. I assure you that I will solve this matter, and about Mei and Ben, I will also find a way To appease their emotions, the sons of Richard and Mary, SHIELD will take care of them. I can do little for them, but I will try my best to do it well."
Fury looked at Merlin:
"Trust me, will you? Looking for clues is a process. This process takes time. You should be able to understand that everything has a process."
Merlin saw the sincerity in Fury's eyes, and for a moment, he really wanted to leave all these things to Fury.
As before, he was in charge of action and Fury was in charge of finishing.
They can also cooperate as they did before.
However, the death of Richard and Mary is like an open switch, which activates the suppressed emotions in Merlin’s heart, like a tumbling shadow, so that Merlin simply ignores those who have been towards The threat from his invasion.
Those hands hidden in the dark have begun to threaten those around Merlin.
Richard and Mary may just be the first victims. The next thing might be Eric, May, and Coulson. Maybe even Fury will be one of those victims.
he can not...
Silent as before.
He could no longer ignore the threats, he had to do something.
"I know, this is a process, I know... I just wonder if it will have results."
"I really want to believe you, Fury."
Merlin stood up and looked at Fury:
"We have known each other for 10 years, and we have worked together for 8 years. I really... really treat you as my best friend, Fury. Even if you have such secrets, I think you should be A person with a good heart, we should be the same person and want to do good deeds."
"But you changed, Fury."
Merlin took out a few sheets of paper from the pocket of his trench coat where the unmarked extension spell was placed, placed it on the table in front of Fry, and pushed it to Fry.
"The secrets you hide, they make you a little bit unknown to me."
Fury looked at Merlin's paper and wrote a lot of things in beautiful fonts, but it was fragmented and unorganized. However, the few keywords exposed in it made Fury's brows jump fiercely.
First, there are several arrow cycles representing the flow of cash flow, where Fury sees the names of himself and Hill, and the names of several banks used to hide cash flow. At the end of those arrows, they point to two items.
One is the "Avenger" project he has told Merlin.
The other was marked with a question mark, which seemed to mean that Merlin had not been able to find out what it was.
Under the cash flow icon, there is another simple hand-drawn map, a circle with "Canada, Quebec" written on it, and a small circle with a small question mark in it and a Short labeling of the secret base.
On the second page, the "Seventh District" of the Ministry of Defense was written.
Under that heading, three branches were extended.
Where did NBE-1 go?
Where is the fire source?
Who disclosed my identity to the Ministry of Defense?
After the third branch, there is a dotted line. At the end of the dotted line, there is a sentence that makes Fury startle.
"In the Aegis Bureau, there are ghosts inside!"
The third page is a fragment of a diary. The font on it is not Merlin's font, but the missing font of Ms. Peggy Carter, which is familiar to Fury.
Those are a few words.
"Fery intends to follow our "paper clip" action and recruit some special members to join SHIELD. He looks confident, but I still have some concerns."
"Can Fury fully guarantee that the SHIELD under his leadership will not be infiltrated?"
"Furray's ambition is certainly a good thing, but can he really ensure that SHIELD won't go the wrong way?"
"Maybe Fury, who was recruited into this system by myself, hasn't noticed that even now, just now, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s expansion rate is a bit too fast. Among the mixed fish and dragons, he can really ensure all information security Maybe? Maybe I should find a time to remind Fury."
Fury looked at the three sheets of paper in front of him. After a few minutes, he looked up and looked at Merlin with a mixture of anger and disappointment. He said in a word:
"Merlin, you... doubt me?"
