Chapter 323 Assistant Director
The video conference of the World Security Council ended quickly. After the dismissal notice was issued, the directors impatiently left the venue one by one and closed the video communication link.
Looking at the dark screens, Nick Fury had mixed feelings for a moment.
He has shed blood for the country!
He gave his youth, his family, and one eye!
He has been fighting bloody battles for his country since World War II. Now, decades have passed. In order to protect this country, he, who is already an old man, is still working hard day and night like an energetic young man...
And what did he get?
There is only one sentence: "I'm sorry that you were fired. Please understand."
Nick Fury clenched his fists, and his nails dug into his flesh. At this moment, the person who replaced him patted him on the shoulder and said, "...I need an assistant director, are you interested?"
Is this a mockery?
Is this contempt?
Is this an insult to a veteran?
Twenty or thirty years ago, perhaps the impulsive Nick Fury would have been furious and punched the proud young man in the face.
Now, he could only lower his head in silence, ignore it with a cold face, walked to his desk, and quietly started packing his things.
While he was busy cleaning up, he said to his old partner and good friend Alexander Pierce: "Alexander, help me find a cardboard box."
"Nick, you should consider Director Luo's suggestion."
Alexander advised: "You are a rare tactical expert with an unparalleled strategic mind. You are also a top military expert with rich combat experience and military knowledge. You are fully qualified to serve as the assistant director..."
Nick interrupted him in a calm tone: "I plan to use my retirement money to buy an apartment in Queens, and I will be an apartment owner who collects the money while I'm at it. I'll also take the time to teach the arrogant black young people there. Once I save enough money, I'll be fine." A vacation to the coast of Jamaica…”
He raised his head: "This can be considered a good retirement life, right?"
Alexander sighed, knowing that his old friend was feeling miserable.
Luo Feng walked over, smiled and put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Mr. Fury, I sincerely suggest you think about it again, because now I am the one who decides whether you can receive your pension."
With a "Gahba" sound, a pen that Nick Fury was packing was broken by him.
"I have worked for the country all my life..."
"Those veterans who were injured and retired on the battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq did not receive adequate pensions. Thinking about it this way, are you a little more mentally balanced?"
Nick Fury looked at this disgusting bureaucrat with a sneer and shook his head slowly: "Neither bullets nor gunpoints have made me surrender. I am in good health now. Even if I don't have a penny of pension, I can still live well. .”
"Hmm... Not bad, not bad."
Luo Feng nodded: "This is called 'laid-off and re-employed' in our country. Life is heroic depending on success or failure, but it's just starting from scratch."
Nick Fury couldn't stand his ridicule anymore, so he simply stopped packing his personal belongings and threw away these rags as they should!
He pushed Luo Feng away and strode towards the office door.
"I have to remind you, Mr. Fury."
Before leaving the house, Luo Feng stopped him.
Director Luo stretched out his hand, raised two fingers, pointed at his eyes, and then pointed at him: "I will keep an eye on you to prevent you from mixing with your old friend wearing a tights with a skull pattern on it. Together, we will create violent incidents that endanger national security."
His tone was serious: "When the time comes, don't blame me for being merciless and sending you both to prison."
Nick Fury is simply going crazy. As a veteran who has been fighting for a lifetime, he has no other skills to make a living except fighting.
His pension was hacked by Luo Feng, so it would be a way out for him to team up with his old friend "The Punisher" Frank Castle and become a mercenary.
As a result, the new director wanted to kill everyone. Did he have to be forced to do odd jobs at the Golden Arches, KFC, and work as a cashier in a supermarket before he would give up?
"Why do you have to let me be your assistant?"
Nick Fury turned back angrily, walked up to Luo Feng, faced him face to face, and yelled at him, spitting all over his face.
"First of all, in order to use your prestige to take control of SHIELD as soon as possible."
Luo Feng pointed his fingers and said: "Secondly, my Chinese identity will make some agents with racist tendencies uncooperative. There are quite a few such people in S.H.I.E.L.D., and I need your help to suppress them."
"Third, my working style is relatively tough. You can act as a lubricant to prevent the relationship between me and the agents below from becoming too tense and unable to be eased."
"Fourth, my understanding of SHIELD basically comes from information. I need a senior person to help me get familiar with this place..."
"fifth……"
"Enough is enough!"
Nick Fury waved his hand: "I understand. I recommend level eight agent Phil Coulson to you. He is the person you need."
"Mr. Colson is indeed very good. I have been in contact with him in the past two days, but I have other plans for him."
Luo Feng shook his head and said, "You should listen to my fifth reason."
"Okay, tell me."
"I have an idea to gather a group of extraordinary people and see what we can do. When they need us, we will fight..."
The more Nick Fury listened, the more familiar these words became, but he couldn't remember where he had seen or heard them before.
This new director's plan actually coincides with his own Avengers plan?
Nick Fury was aroused by this statement, and he was somewhat pleased with the young-looking director.
Is this what the Chinese call "heroes think alike"?
As a senior official of the U.S. government, with the rise of a big Eastern country, Nick Fury also learned Chinese and began to try to understand the culture of this country in order to cope with possible future frictions between the United States and the Eastern big country.
"I hope you can help me build this team together."
Luo Feng stretched out his hand to him: "If you are willing to serve as the assistant director, I will delegate many powers to you. In SHIELD, you will have the status of one person below ten thousand people."
Nick Fury did not reach out to shake his hand, but frowned and thought seriously for a long time. Luo Feng's hand just hung in front of him, waiting until he came up with a result.
The hands of the old and new directors of S.H.I.E.L.D. were held together.
"Okay." Assistant Director Fury said with a cold face: "For the sake of your agreement with me, I will accept your appointment."
Luo Feng nodded with satisfaction and changed the topic: "It sounds like you have a similar idea. Have you started working on it? Do you have a suitable candidate? Have you made a complete plan? What is the logistics support and organizational form? What is the team like? Has the leader been determined?”
He asked several questions in succession.
Nick Fury is quite satisfied with the work style of the new director. He entered the role of director very quickly and was very efficient. He started talking about work immediately, which can be said to be vigorous and resolute.
No wonder that big eastern country has developed so fast in recent years. This can be seen from the work style of this dispatched official.
