Chapter 763 Are You Still Short of People?

Li Jie never thought that one day he would meet the well-known king of secret agents in the Marvel world, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and one-eyed Nick Fury in this way.

In an apartment hotel under the Greenland Group in Long Island, in a well-decorated luxury suite of nearly 200 square meters. An expensive hand-woven bohemian-style rug is laid on the floor inconspicuously, as humble as a chemical fiber rug.

The composite wood floor made of maple and ash is polished by floor wax, making people wonder whether this thing has any friction and grip when walking on it.

The handcrafted oak furniture is the basic furnishing of this suite. As for the crystal lamps on the ceiling and the 75-inch 4K LCD TV, these modern appliances are not worth mentioning.

The most eye-catching thing in this suite is not the high-end, elegant, low-key, luxurious and connotative decoration. Instead there is a very large bar in the suite. (It is a large area for a home bar, not compared with an open bar)

In the four-meter-high room, there is a towering wine cabinet. Occupying the size of a whole wall, the teak wine compartments are densely arranged, which looks like a beehive at a glance.

The whole room is filled with a special fragrance, refreshing and intoxicating. Li Jie guessed that half of the smell should come from the fragrance of teak itself. Another smell mixed with various fruity and sweet smells should be the taste of those wines. After sobering up in this room for a long time (note: not sobering up after being drunk, but letting the wine "wake up") and drinking, the fragrance diffused from those good wines has left a special taste here.

A wall of wine grids is lined with all kinds of fine wines, all kinds of brandy, whiskey, rum, tequila, gin and vodka. There are also some dry red, dry white and sparkling champagne on display in the corner.

Here he saw all kinds of wine that Li Jie had never heard of. It is simply a Western wine museum. And under the only open transom window in this bar (Li Jie thought it would be more appropriate to call it a wine cellar), two men were smoking cigars that Li Jie didn't understand at all.

One is Frank the Punisher, his old acquaintance, and the other is a black man with a blindfold on one eye. His only remaining eye was very sharp.

He leaned back on the leather chair, took a deep breath of his cigar and said, "Nightcrawler, I really didn't expect that we would meet in this way, please sit down."

Li Jie nodded and sat on the seat Nick gestured for: "I didn't expect that we would meet in this way, Director Nick Fury."

Frank didn't seem to be interested in the conversation between the two of them. He seemed to be simply enjoying a cigar and a glass of gin. He also had an ice bucket by his hand, and the ice cubes that had been frozen many times showed a crystal clear luster, which showed that these ice cubes did not contain other impurity gases.

Nick took a sip of his cigar: "Actually, I didn't intend to meet you like this, especially when I'm [should be in prison] now. My existence should not be known to outsiders."

Speaking of Nick, he glanced at Frank, but Frank didn't agree with him at all. The punisher just silently poured half a glass of gin into his glass, then threw two ice cubes down, and took a last sip.

Li Jie smiled: "In fact, it is true, Director Nick. You can't blame Frank for this matter. In fact, it was an accident that your information was revealed. I know these things are just accidents. Maybe we are destined to be To meet in some way."

The corner of Nick's mouth moved: "But this is not within the scope of my plan."

Li Jie shook his head, the surrounding air was not very good due to the two old smokers puffing, even though the transom was open for ventilation.

"It's impossible for the director to control everything. Just like the big operation we carried out at the beginning of the night watchman, hunting vampires and protecting the convoy transporting vampire bibles. Didn't this plan also fail? Because of various accidents." It has been a long time since Li Jie mentioned this incident, and it is also the first time that the Night Watchman has dealt with S.H.I.E.L.D.

Nick raised his eyebrows: "If you say so, it is true. Nothing can be smooth sailing, and everything must be prepared."

The two did not have an in-depth chat on the previous issues but quickly shifted the topic. Because Li Jie came to ask Nick for a favor this time.

So Li Jie nodded and said: "Yes, double insurance is very important for many things. Just like the Thunderbolt team plan you made, Director Fury, I still agree."

Nick didn't express anything about Li Jie's praise. He just put down the cigar and said, "Tell me, what is your real intention. The reason why you asked me to come out, Frank said you have an important matter, which is related to S.H.I.E.L.D. Bureau and Heavenly Sword Bureau split?"

Nick Fury's eyes were sharp, he didn't come to chat with Li Jie. In fact, he was skeptical about such a meeting, which was normal. As the king of agents, if Nick Fury can trust a person just because of a few words, then he must consider his professionalism as an agent.

Li Jie waved his hand: "Okay, actually this matter sounds complicated, but it's actually very simple..."

Li Jie told the truth about the Winter Soldier Bucky Barnes, especially about his killing of Howard Stark and his wife. Little Bucky involved two big men, Tony and Rogers, which had to be cautious.

Hearing these things Li Jie said, Nick had to stand up cautiously, and he walked slowly in the room: "If what you said is true, then this matter will have a great impact."

"If the Winter Soldier reappears, or even someone with a heart releases news about him and reveals it to Tony or Rogers, it will cause a split between the two!" Thinking of the worst outcome, even Nick Fury, an old world I couldn't help shivering.

Rogers now has too much power, and Tony has too many resources. If they really turned their faces, it would be a big event for the whole world.

"You are right, this is indeed a big event, and it needs to be planned early!" Nick has already used his brain to find a way: "We need to find the Winter Soldier before others find him, and control him. If necessary Even killed him!"

Nick glanced at Frank who was drinking: "Frank, I need your help. You have to help me find this guy. I want to make sure he doesn't mess things up. And you Nightcrawler, since you know the news, then I want you to keep your mouth shut. Leave the rest to me, you know?"

Nick seems to have become the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. at this time. He is giving orders step by step, and there is a kind of urgency in his tone.

But compared to Nick who was in a state of urgency, the two people in front of him: Nightcrawler and Punishment didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

Nightcrawler was sitting in a leather chair playing with his nails, while Punisher was still drinking his wine in the presence of the old god.

Nick looked at the two with a hellish expression: "Are you indifferent? We are facing a big crisis now. I thought you were looking for me as a night crawler who wanted to solve the problem."

Li Jie spread his hands: "I really want to solve the problem."

Nick didn't like Nightcrawler's sloppy attitude: "Then act! You can't expect everything to depend on others! Aren't you good friends with Iron Man?!"

Frank waved his hand on the side and smiled, "Nick Fury, you've been fooled."

"What?" Nick asked a little puzzled.

"Actually, I believe that Nightcrawler dealt with a lot of things before he came to you. He has his reasons for not being in a hurry. I know him better than you." Frank smiled at Nick. There was something in his smile that Nick didn't quite understand.

At this time, Li Jie also spoke: "Director Nick is very happy that you can see the overall situation so well. Even though you lost the position of Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. for some reason, you are still thinking about the world and know what is wrong. Should happen. And be willing to deal with the aftermath of something."

This is what Nick said just now. Nick said that he should make plans and plans for the matter of the Winter Soldier, but Li Jie just repeated it.

Nick heard a hint of joy in Nightcrawler's words. Nightcrawler continued: "Actually, I may not have made it clear just now, Director Nick. I have actually captured the Winter Soldier."

Nick: "What?!"

Li Jie continued: "And I also told Tony and Captain Rogers about it."

Nick: "What?!!"

Li Jie: "They had a quarrel at the beginning, but I settled it in the end. It's just a little disagreement on how to deal with Bucky Barnes, so I thought of you, Director Nick."

Nick: "What?!!! Wait! Wait! You just said you settled everything except the Bucky Barnes thing?" Nick seemed to guess something.

Li Jie nodded: "Yes, that's it. I was a little worried at first, but you also said just now, Director Nick, that we shouldn't let these bad things happen, right? Your sense of responsibility is admirable , If you are not in your position, you will still seek his own government. So I want to ask, is there still a shortage of people in your Thunder Special Agents team?"

"Sergeant Bucky Barnes can report to your team at any time." Li Jie said with a brisk smile in his tone.

Nick Fury: ……………………

Li Jie felt that Director Nick's face had turned darker, but he guessed it must be his own illusion, because as a black director, how could he continue to turn black? Illusion, illusion~!
