Aaron said, "How about this? Let's make a deal. I'll tell you sothing you're interested in, and you let choose a few 084s."
Fury frowned deeply and subconsciously looked at Barbara.
Had she told Aaron about 084?
084 represent items of unknown origin. They can be objects, energy, or even people.
Aaron's file within S.H.I.E.L.D. was also 084 — Superman.
Fury said, "As an agent of the US, the education I received does not allow to do sothing that betrays national interests."
Aaron chuckled. "Fury, do you think I'm discussing this with you?"
Fury imdiately felt a great sense of dread.
Aaron's expression darkened as he said, "Rember, no one can stop what I intend to do."
Fury's face was grim. He was about to say sothing when his phone suddenly rang again.
Fury subconsciously tensed up, vaguely guessing what was happening.
Not again!
He picked up the phone and answered.
"Fury, does S.H.I.E.L.D. still want to exist? Are you treating my words as wind passing through your ears? Perhaps I should consider a better candidate, such as Mr. Aaron?"
"I haven't settled the matter of Hulk and Abomination with you yet. Don't disappoint again, and don't disappoint Mr. Aaron again."
"Otherwise, pack your bags and get out tomorrow."
Beep! Beep!
Fury's face was dark, and he didn't dare speak throughout the call.
Because the person on the other end was the President.
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s status was transcendent, surpassing even the CIA and FBI, reporting directly to the President. But this also ant that if they displeased the President, he could genuinely fire him imdiately.
Fury relented, replying, "I agree."
Aaron scoffed. He was stubborn until he was forced.
"Fury, didn't you say the education you received didn't allow you to do such things?"
Fury's lips twitched. "After all, you are Arica's rising star."
Damn it! Could a person like this beco a rising star? Wouldn't that make him, Fury, the rising sun?
Was there any justice left in this world?
Dirty politicians! Damned billionaires!
"Very well, I think tomorrow would be excellent. What do you think?"
Aaron had no intention of wasting words with him and imdiately finalized the matter.
Fury nodded.
What could he say? He had no choice but to accept it.
"By the way, about the deal you just ntioned..."
"I'm sorry, you'll need to exchange sothing else for it." Aaron sneered.
Fury took a deep breath and said kindly, "Mr. Aaron, I think..."
"Wait a mont."
Aaron ate a grape that Barbara fed him mouth-to-mouth, snapped his fingers, and a mirror appeared in his hand. He held it facing Fury.
"Get back to normal. I prefer that unruly look you had just now."
Fury's eyebrows twitched heavily. He didn't know how many tis they had twitched today, but he knew that this was the worst day he had experienced in decades.
This damn bastard!
Has anyone ever told you that talking to you is incredibly boring?
Fury looked at his own facial expression in the mirror, which was slightly out of control due to emotional fluctuations.
Calm down. Fury, you are the King of Agents. How can you lose your composure so easily?
At least you have successfully planted a spy next to Aaron.
Fury recovered his previous unruly deanor.
Using the coldest tone, he spoke the most yielding words, "Mr. Aaron, what do you want? People or objects? Perhaps you can pick a few more things when the ti cos, we will certainly cooperate fully."
"Now that's better." Aaron smiled.
Since you refused the courtesy I offered, don't bla for showing my displeasure.
"Then it's settled. Whatever I take a fancy to later, you must give it to ."
Fury imdiately had a bad premonition. Sothing was wrong. This was a trap.
I, the King of Agents, have been hit by a honey trap today.
He wanted to take back his words, but upon hearing Aaron's next sentence, his expression changed drastically.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. has an internal mole."
"Impossible!"
Fury imdiately refuted, but the thought of the bastard who had provided Aaron with fake docunts flashed through his mind.
Aaron asked, "You know about the Exposition attack, right?"
"Are you talking about Blonsky?"
"What happened afterward?"
Fury frowned. "We are still investigating. This matter is being handled by the most professional agents, and results will be available soon. Besides, this doesn't prove anything."
Aaron chuckled.
By the ti you finish investigating, the trail will be stone cold.
How can one's own people arrest their own people?
"I guess the final conclusion will definitely be the Ten Rings Gang." Aaron laughed.
Fury's brow furrowed even tighter.
Aaron said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. is inappropriate. I suggest you change the na. The na is concise and easy to understand."
Fury retorted, "This was also suggested by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s consultant. He is Tony Stark."
Aaron said, "No, what I an is, it should be renad the Snake Shield Agency. Sounds pretty good, right?"
"Huh?!"
Naturally, Hydra and snake is very different. But even if Hydra is special, it is still a snake.
After Fury silently repeated the words twice, he imdiately felt uneasy.
Snake and Hydra.
Is there a connection?
Fury pretended not to understand. "I don't understand what you are trying to say."
"No, you understand. You didn't guess wrong. It is Hydra."
Without using ntal power, Aaron observed Fury's fleeting shock based on his micro-expressions.
It seems the so-called King of Agents isn't as legendary as people say.
Fury said, "Mr. Aaron, although you have a strong voice with the President, you shouldn't slander S.H.I.E.L.D.'s position."
"S.H.I.E.L.D. is S.H.I.E.L.D. Or do you think I am incompetent, allowing a bunch of outsiders to usurp control?"
Aaron was imnsely surprised. "So you know too."
Fury's lips twitched.
Know what? That I'm incompetent?
I have worked diligently at S.H.I.E.L.D. for many years, and my contributions are obvious to all.
Everyone has seen his capabilities.
Who dares say he is incapable?
Yet today, Aaron, an outsider, dares to criticize him.
Very good.
For the sake of your first offense, I will endure it.
Fury had actually vaguely sensed that there were moles within S.H.I.E.L.D., but he didn't think it was much trouble.
Which organization doesn't have internal moles?
People are fickle, and facing external temptations, it's understandable that a small portion of people would willingly fall into depravity.
But Fury would not admit it. If he admitted it, wouldn't that suggest his incompetence?
He would rather go back and slowly check things himself.
"Mr. Aaron, I can guarantee that S.H.I.E.L.D. will not be the Snake Shield Agency. If I am lying, then you can beco the Director."
Fury was stubbornly denying it, refusing to admit anything.
Aaron curled his lips. "Please. Be the leader of a bunch of little snakes? Even dogs would despise this rotten organization."
So you're saying I'm worse than a dog?
He really wanted to rip that mouth apart.
Or just sew it shut.
Fury remained silent for a long ti.
He really wanted to stand up resolutely and leave, showing Aaron his back.
But...
Fury softened his posture. "What exactly do you know?"
A true man knows when to yield and when to stand firm. To extract more information, he was willing to go all out.
