Chapter 20 The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish

When you are in the underworld, there is only one word to say.

Don't be timid!

Good people are often bullied, and good horses are often ridden.

This Dicken Frost has already set up his carriage. If he doesn't take the challenge, he might think he is afraid.

He is a senior agent of the Sentinel Secret Service. How can he be afraid of a vampire who is afraid of the light?

Ha.

What are you thinking.

After Locke finished speaking, he took out his phone and dialed the number on the business card.

Come on.

Face to face, whoever is timid is a puppy.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Hello."

A voice came from the other end of the phone, which was a little low and a little hoarse. In short, it felt that the person speaking was a young... villain.

Locke and Brown, who were on speakerphone, looked at each other.

Locke spoke, his tone was very calm.

"Dicken Frost."

"...Who are you?"

"Heh."

Locke played with the business card in his hand: "You left your business card in four places, do you still need to ask who I am?"

Dicken Frost on the other end of the phone reacted.

Located in a high-rise building in Manhattan, New York.

Dicken Frost, a villain wearing a gray silk pajamas and looking a little evil, directly pushed away the two vampire maids, one black and one white, lying on him, grabbed the phone with his right hand with a ring, walked straight out of the bedroom, and then came to the French window in the hall.

The next second.

The curtains of the French window were opened to both sides, and the sun's rays instantly poured into the large platform.

But...

Dicken Frost, bathed in the sun, was unharmed.

Deacon Frost narrowed his eyes, switched the phone to his other hand, and then rotated the ring on his hand with one hand: "Mr. Locke Underwood of the Sentinel Secret Service?"

Locke's mouth corners raised: "Yes, Frost left his business card, wouldn't it be just to confirm my identity."

Dicken Frost laughed.

"Of course not."

"Oh."

"I want to make friends with Mr. Underwood."

"Hehe."

Locke listened to this and smiled without saying anything.

Deacon Frost didn't care, and said directly: "Since Mr. Underwood knows the existence of the extraordinary world, he should also know the covenant made between the extraordinary world and the ordinary world."

Locke raised his eyebrows.

The extraordinary-secular covenant!

Natasha said it when exchanging intelligence.

This so-called "supernatural-secular covenant" was not signed by S.H.I.E.L.D., but was signed by the five overlords and the entire extraordinary world after World War II.

However, the promoter of this covenant is one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Ms. Peggy Carter.

After all, at that time, Captain America Steve Rogers also had a good reputation in the extraordinary world.

Because Steve Rogers is a real hero.

A real hero will be respected everywhere. Under the love of the house, the extraordinary creatures in the lawful camp in the extraordinary world also have some respect for Ms. Peggy Carter.

The content of this covenant is very simple.

The extraordinary world recognizes that the world belongs to the five hegemons, and the five hegemons also recognize that the extraordinary creatures have the right to live on the earth and will not take the initiative to break this balance.

Of course.

The covenant stipulates that the extraordinary creatures must also maintain non-interference in the ordinary world.

In fact, the implementation of this covenant was very good for a period of time after it was signed.

However, after Ms. Peggy Carter retired and the relationship between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Howling Commandos was completely severed, it began to loosen up a bit.

Especially after the introduction of the Mutant Freedom Act in 1973.

Are mutants considered extraordinary creatures?

Yes, or no.

But...

Some creatures in the supernatural world who do not belong to the lawful camp think that the Mutant Freedom Act is a test of their supernatural race by the ordinary world.

In a word.

If the ordinary world dares to oppress the mutant race today, it will dare to oppress their race tomorrow.

When the nest is overturned, no egg will be left unbroken.

Since the ordinary world has torn up the covenant, it is not considered that they have breached the contract.

So since then, this so-called covenant has actually existed in name only.

The supernatural world is restless.

SHIELD is very uncomfortable.

The Sentinel Secret Service is also restless.

This is why Locke and Brown did not catch mutants this time, and came to catch vampires without any constraints.

The reason is very simple.

After the senior officials of the Sentinel Secret Service headquarters in Washington knew about this, they felt that this was an opportunity.

A brand new opportunity to restore the Sentinel Secret Service to law enforcement.

In fact, when the Sentinel Service was first established, it was not intended to target mutants as a supernatural being.

The Sentinel Service at that time was established to target the entire supernatural world.

Who made SHIELD an illegal organization?

No matter whether SHIELD was jointly established by the five overlords, on federal land, any organization that has not been approved by Congress is illegal.

Therefore, it is reasonable for the Sentinel Service to want to obtain the law enforcement power of the entire supernatural world.

Simply speaking, any supernatural creature, as long as you live on federal land, must be controlled by the Sentinel Secret Service like mutants.

But SHIELD didn't do that at the time.

Because if the Sentinel Secret Service did that, it would directly conflict with their authority.

As for why the Sentinel Secret Service didn't get the desired result at the time, it was actually very simple.

Because SHIELD invited Ms. Peggy Carter, who had retired.

But that was in 1974, and now it is 2011.

With this incident, the senior management of the Sentinel Secret Service became active again.

After not seeing each other for many years, you SHIELD are so bad at dealing with a vampire?

Great.

You SHIELD are bad, but our Sentinel Secret Service is not bad.

It just so happens that, taking this opportunity, the Sentinel Secret Service can re-propose the suggestion of expanding the scope of business.

This is also the reason why the bureau has not handed over the mutant case to Locke and Brown in the past month.

It is to let him and Brown go out to cause trouble.

The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish.

Look!

The fish has taken the bait.

When Locke heard Deacon Frost mention the "Supernatural-Mundane Covenant", he remembered the conversation he had with his supervisor Walter Herman a few days ago.

He smiled.

Coming back to his senses.

Locke said calmly: "Of course I know about this covenant, but you started this matter first, and our people died."

Yes.

In this incident, no matter what, their people died first.

What?

The vampire retaliated in self-defense?

Ha.

What are you thinking.

They are a regular law enforcement agency with a search warrant. They come to investigate you, and all you have to do is cooperate.

Fight back?

You deserve to be killed!

Do you understand the value of the federal charter?

Ha!
