Chapter 39 Don’t mess with career-minded women

"Ms. Hill, the bureau has agreed to your request."

"That's great, happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation."

After Locke finished speaking, he immediately hung up the phone and looked at Walter Herman, the agent supervisor sitting opposite him.

Of the three conditions Hill proposed last night, he could only agree to the first one.

As for the latter two, they needed the nod of the bureau's senior management.

This is it.

Locke blocked his supervisor Walter Herman in the underground parking lot early in the morning, reported the matter, and asked the latter to contact the senior management in Washington as soon as possible.

After receiving the news, the senior management in Washington only thought for a while and agreed to it.

Just as Locke said.

Capturing mutants is just a job, and how to expand the power in hand is what politicians want most.

So...

This deal is very cost-effective.

After Locke put away the phone, he touched his chin and said to Walter Herman: "The senior commander of SHIELD is not simple."

Walter Herman drank the coffee in his hand and glanced at Locke: "Is there any simple character who can survive in Washington?"

Locke shook his head.

This is the truth.

If the smartest people in Dong Ge are all in Peking, then the smartest people in the Federation are in Washington...or Wall Street.

But he did think Maria Hill was a little simple at the beginning.

After all, in Marvel's series, although Maria Hill is also famous, she is not so outstanding.

When he saw Maria Hill in the bathroom yesterday, he was actually thinking about whether there was a chance to be good friends.

But after Maria Hill stated the conditions for cooperation, he immediately dispelled this idea.

In a word.

This woman, don't mess with it.

SHIELD is SHIELD.

She is her.

It only took a while for Maria Hill to figure out how to use this matter to gain benefits for herself.

She will take the blame for SHIELD and get all the benefits.

If anyone says that Maria Hill is a simple woman, Locke will be the first to disagree with such an operation.

However...

"I haven't heard that the director and deputy director of SHIELD are not getting along."

"Hehe."

Walter Herman drank coffee and smiled without saying anything.

Locke looked up and blinked.

"You know?"

"Just a little bit."

Walter Herman put down the coffee in his hand: "It was when you wanted to cooperate with SHIELD a month ago that I learned from the senior officials in Washington. You should know that our Sentinel Secret Service has cooperation with the military."

Locke nodded: "Colonel William Stryker."

William Stryker, an army colonel, is also a senior partner of the Sentinel Secret Service.

Like Brown, he hates mutants because his wife was killed by mutants, so he wants to eliminate all mutants in the world to bury his wife.

However...

Locke knows one more thing.

That is, William Stryker's son is also a mutant, and he is also a famous illusion master.

"In fact, Mr. Trask wanted to cooperate with SHIELD at that time."

"Huh?"

Trask, whose full name is Bolivar Trask, is the founder of their Sentinel Special Service.

It was Bolivar Trask who discovered and invented the serum that specifically restrains mutants.

But he is dead.

Just one month after the establishment of the Sentinel Special Service, it is said that he was assassinated by mutants.

But whether it is true or not, Locke does not comment.

Anyway, he did not kill him.

Locke blinked: "What happened?"

Walter Herman said: "I don't know what happened specifically, but Ms. Peggy Carter, who was retired but still a consultant to SHIELD at the time, agreed to cooperate, but the then director of SHIELD did not agree."

The director of SHIELD at that time?

Locke thought about it.

"Alexander Pierce?"

"Yes."

Walter Hermann nodded and grabbed his coffee cup again: "After that, Ms. Peggy Carter completely left SHIELD. It is said that this Maria Hill is the last agent recruited by Ms. Peggy Carter before she completely left."

Maria Hill, Peggy Carter.

Nick Fury, Alexander Pierce.

Locke showed a look of realization on his face.

He seemed to understand.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Walter Hermann observed Locke's expression and smiled.

"Got it?"

"Yes, got it."

Locke came back to his senses.

In Marvel movies, although Maria Hill is a senior commander of SHIELD and has served as the acting director of SHIELD, her performance is no different from that of Nick Fury's subordinates.

Although Maria Hill is indeed Nick Fury's subordinate.

But too loyal.

Locke was a little curious at first, but didn't think much about it. At the moment, it seems that the reality is not the case.

But this is also right.

Because from the perspective of politics and the unspoken rules, generally speaking, the director and deputy director of a law enforcement agency must be in an opposing relationship.

The question is that this is good for both parties and even for others.

So...

What is the situation now?

Maria Hill is from Peggy Carter's faction, while Nick Fury is from Alexander Pierce's faction.

And Blade is also Nick Fury's man.

This is the main reason why Maria Hill doesn't mind SHIELD taking the blame.

In this way, not only can Nick Fury be suppressed, but also benefits can be gained for their own faction.

Locke's thoughts turned, and then he seemed to think of something and asked Walter Hermann: "But we still tore a piece of meat from SHIELD, didn't we?"

Walter Hermann smiled again, leaned back in his boss chair, crossed his hands on his chest, and looked at Locke with a smile.

"Whose hands did the meat fall from."

"...I understand."

Now Nick Fury is the boss of SHIELD.

Their Sentinel Secret Service used this incident to expand their authority, and if it succeeded, it was also Nick Fury's business during his term of office.

What does it have to do with Maria Hill.

Tsk tsk

After Locke figured it out, he tutted his tongue twice and shook his head: "A career-oriented woman is too scary."

Walter Herman listened to Locke's sigh and smiled: "Is this inspired by emotion?"

Locke looked up: "Huh?"

Walter Herman smiled and said: "Speaking of career-oriented, isn't Esme the same? You have been married for half a year, have you been together for more than a month?"

Locke was slightly stunned, then stood up with a bang.

"Shit, what time is it?"

"Ten o'clock."

Walter Herman looked at the time on his watch and was about to ask what was wrong when he saw Locke walking towards the door without looking back.

"Where are you going?"

"To pick up my wife!"

"...Not going to work?"

"Fuck!"

"..."
