In fact, Richard didn't want to work overtime. To be honest, he really wanted to sit in the office all night and supervise everyone to finish this report.After all, this report is different. The protagonist of the report is himself. Of course, he wants to supervise it personally.
But he's really not in a good state today.It may be that the fusion with Nexus's power is not perfect, and the gigantic feels like he has just finished running a marathon.
In fact, it wasn't obvious that the transformation was just released, but it was a little sleepy during the meeting.It's just that when he got home, he fell asleep almost as soon as his head touched the pillow, and it was nine o'clock in the morning when he woke up.
This is very unusual for Richard.Before the time travel, his schedule has always been very regular. He usually goes to bed before eleven o'clock in the evening and wakes up around 07:30 in the morning.He also retained this good work and rest habit after crossing, and it was unprecedented for him to sleep until eight o'clock.
But this sleep was really refreshing, the exhaustion from last night had been completely swept away, and even the mental strength had improved slightly.He could feel that the power of light and the body fit better, and it will definitely last longer next time.
He came to the company after washing up, and was delighted to see that the new headlines of his own newspaper had already been freshly released.
Richard sat down at his desk and took a look at a printed newspaper.Well, the report was written so-so, considering that the time for rushing to proofread is really tight, I'll give them a seventy-point score.The photos are also well taken, especially the one with Ultraman's back in the pictures, which is quite a grand movie poster.Adding chicken legs to the photographer is not right, it is a bonus.
Richard was watching happily when his secretary, Stephanie Lance, appeared at the door.Miss Lance is a beautiful girl with black hair and blue eyes, dressed in clean and simple business attire, and has a pair of pleasing long legs.Her black hair was like a waterfall, her eyes were so bright that she seemed to be able to speak, and she was clean and efficient in her work, which was Richard's most satisfying job after changing four secretaries in a row.
Don't get me wrong, he chose Stephanie entirely because of her excellent professionalism and high work efficiency, and absolutely nothing to do with other factors. Well, that's it.
Stephanie came in with the coffee Richard had asked for—warm, unsweetened, and needless to say she remembered her boss's tastes well.She handed Richard the brewed coffee and said, "There are two gentlemen outside who want to see you, sir."
Richard raised his eyebrows: "Who?"
"Two gentlemen claiming to be government agents," she said. "They have documents, so what kind of S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
Oh?Found it so soon?Could it be that he noticed that Ultraman who appeared last night was the boss of this newspaper?
Richard was a little surprised.After gaining power, he only changed once last night. Even if this organization has hands and eyes, he doesn't think it can be discovered, right?
But it doesn't really matter if you find out.Anyway, he is not like the Ultraman human body in the special drama, and he has to leave the earth when he is discovered. The Aegis will know it when he knows it.Anyway, what should he do or what to do, he doesn't think there will be any restrictions after his identity is exposed.
First of all, with the power of Ultraman, it is not enough to see the forces of the whole world united in front of him. If anyone wants to threaten him with force, it must be a show of brains.In addition, he traveled through this world and was alone. He was neither old nor young. So far, he didn't even have a partner, and he was completely a bachelor.Being unconcerned also means having no weaknesses, not to mention Aegis, even if a supervillain wants to take someone close to him as a weakness, he will only find that there is no way to start.
But Richard didn't like Aegis itself, especially since their secrecy was the natural enemy of journalism.It is better to have less than one thing, and it is naturally best not to deal with this group of people.
"Tell them I'm not here," Richard said calmly. "Just say I went out to run the news myself."
The door of the office opened at this unfortunate time, and two agents in suits and leather shoes stood at the door with their waists upright, looking at Richard with a rigid expression like a robot.
Richard has been complaining about the poor soundproofing of the office - editor-in-chief Stewart can hear it clearly in his own room whenever he scolds reporters and photographers in his own office.So there is no doubt that these two gentlemen must have heard his lies.
But as such a successful boss, Richard has long practiced the kung fu of not changing his face even if his lies are exposed in person.He waved to Stephanie's surprise, and said calmly, "How are you, what are you two gentlemen doing?"
"Hello, Mr. Li." One of the agents stepped forward.This is a middle-aged man with a hairline that breaks through the sky, and his face is quite friendly.He introduced himself, "I'm Phil Coulson, and this is Grant Ward." He said, pointing to the unsmiling gentleman beside him, "We are SHIELD agents."
Richard raised his eyebrows.
This can be interesting.Phil Coulson, he knows, this is a good old man, a senior agent of SHIELD, and a huge fan of Captain America.However, this one is also a model worker in the movie. He was busy on the Iron Man studio, and he was in charge when Thor's Hammer fell to New Mexico. In the Avengers 1 movie, the Aegis lost the Cosmic Cube and also wanted him Keep busy.Even later, the superheroes fought on their own and refused to cooperate. It took the labor model worker to die once before the heroes were willing to cooperate obediently.
He also knew this other Mr. Agent.Grant Ward, an agent who appeared in the American TV series SHIELD.He has top fighting skills, the best professional quality, and he has a stern face all day long. He is a typical "James Bond" elite agent.However, this elite agent has the biggest secret, that is, he is not a real S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. The object of his real service is the "Hydra", a terrorist organization that lives inside S.H.I.E.L.D.To put it simply, this Ward agent is actually one-two-five.
Agent Coulson showed their credentials.Richard glanced at it, only to witness a silver eagle emblem painted on it, with the letters "shield" clearly written on the top.
Richard thought for a while: "Please repeat the full name of your organization."
Colson: "???"
Chapter 6 Inquiries
Agent Coulson has not been working in S.H.I.E.L.D. for a short time.As a top-secret organization that has not been disclosed to the public at this stage, when Coulson showed off the Aegis badge, 90.00% of the people would generally ask questions such as "I have never heard of this organization."
Then he will explain patiently at this time, saying that we are a top-secret agency and are responsible for handling some issues involving high-level secrets and so on.
As a result, the newspaper boss didn't play cards according to the routine!How can anyone tell people the full name of the organization as soon as they come up?
The name written on the badge badge is "shield", which is an abbreviation of a certain string of words at a glance.The agents of Aegis are aware of this, but there are not many people who can completely recite the full name of the organization.
I really can't blame them, the full name is really too long!
But Coulson is worthy of being a senior agent of SHIELD, and he recited fluently without breathing and blinking: "Strategid intervention, enfort and logistics division, commonly known as S.H.I.E.L.D."
Richard was instantly in awe of Agent Coulson.Can you memorize such a name that can be counted?I admire you
Agent Grant Ward on the side was calm, his expression was still rigid and rigid, but he was secretly glad in his heart.Fortunately, you didn't ask me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to answer.He couldn't help but look at Coulson with a little more admiration. It's a shame that he remembered a name that was so long that he couldn't even write it on the certificate.
"It's amazing, I think Aegis should give you more medals." Richard said seriously.
Coulson was taken aback for a moment, and some did not keep up with his rhythm.Why, just memorize the full name of the organization. Although it is difficult to remember, is this thing as for issuing medals?
Richard pointed to his head: "Your head looks like a type with a heavy workload. You must be very busy, right?"
With such sparse hair, those who didn't know thought he was a programmer.
Coulson's face darkened.What is a particularly heavy workload?Do you have any opinions on my haircut?Will you speak?
"Okay, so two SHIELD agents," Richard asked. "Is there anything I can do to help you?"
"It's about the incident last night." Agent Coulson didn't care about him, "yesterday's conflict just happened to break out in front of your newspaper office, and so did the appearance of the giant. We're investigating the matter. We want to know if anyone at the newspaper saw or heard anything unusual, especially before the giant showed up."
"Ultraman." Richard waved the newspaper beside him, "If you read today's newspaper, you will know that the giant has a name. His name is 'Ultraman'."
"Alright Ultraman." Agent Coulson obviously didn't want to worry about such trivial matters as his name, "So, do you have any information to provide? I think a newspaper as big as you will definitely not miss any clues, right? "
Richard shrugged. "So why don't you buy a copy of today's paper and read it?"
"Thank you, I bought one on the way to work and I've read it," Coulson said. "But we want to know more about what's not written in the newspaper. It would be better to have some photo resources."
"No," Richard said flatly. "I'm so sorry, but I really can't be of much help."
The two Aegis agents glanced at each other and exchanged glances, and then Agent Ward walked behind and silently closed the door.
