Chapter 365: Long Live Hydra (Part 2)
The next day, the atmosphere in SHIELD became a little weird. When Nick passed through the corridor, four or five people had already surpassed his walking speed and hurried past him.
Nick looked left and right with a coffee cup in his hand, and found that everyone had a serious expression. He stopped a female agent and asked her: "Where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Good morning, Director. I'm going to work. Some work of the Secret Service Department has not been completed last night, so I have to go early today."
"Ah, okay, you go."
Then, another male agent bumped into him. The agent paused and said: "Oh, sorry, Director, I'm a little anxious. You know, I'm in a hurry to go to work..."
Nick widened his eyes and looked at him in surprise, but he couldn't say anything to stop him. He asked several people in succession and got the same answer.
"Damn it, aren't these low-level agents the best at slacking off? Every day, apart from going to the gym and tennis courts, they gather in the office to discuss when they can get a raise. Why are they suddenly working so hard?"
While talking to himself, Nick walked to the door of the psychological counseling room, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, and Schiller's voice came: "Come in."
As Nick walked in, he turned his head to look at the people coming and going in the corridor. After he walked in, he closed the door, pointed outside and said: "What's going on?"
Schiller threw him a document, Nick looked down and said: "...Security plan? Transfer important personnel to Arkham To the sanatorium?"
Nick put the file down, glanced at Schiller, and asked him: "Don't tell me that these agents work hard to prove that they are important..."
"Of course, as long as they can prove that they are irreplaceable in SHIELD, they will be on the protection list, so that they can safely avoid this purge. You know, Pierce and Garrett are both removed from their posts, and the protection plan is the nearest way out."
Nick narrowed his eyes, as if he saw through Schiller's thoughts. Schiller spread his hands and said, "Don't look at me like that, I am really dealing with Hydra selflessly."
"Hehe." Nick sneered directly in response.
Not long after, many agents on the protection list came to Arkham Sanatorium.
Before, although there were many places for caregivers here, most of them were fake heads to eat empty salaries and settle accounts. There were few real people, so there were few people who could serve.
But now, with so many real "caregivers", the scale of patients can certainly be expanded.
The immortality factor has been marketed for such a long time, and what New York lacks the least is the rich people who are interested in it. There are countless people who want to enter the sanatorium. As soon as the vacant beds are announced, they are immediately filled.
As the number of patients increases, there is a shortage of nurses, so a group of the most diligent and hardworking agents are added to the security list, but as the number of agents increases, there is a shortage of patients, so more patients have to be added, and then nurses...
After adding noodles when there is too much water and water when there is too much noodles, Schiller successfully filled the sanatorium with people.
Moreover, the Hydra agents who can lurk in SHIELD are all conscious and capable. They know that there is a secret base in the Great Purge, which is equivalent to a small boat in the storm. It is an important resource for the security organization's strength. If they reveal a flaw, it means that everyone is finished. Therefore, they work very hard and try their best to disguise themselves as a real nurse.
Of course, Schiller did this not for the sanatorium's business to flourish, but mainly because of his sense of justice that he could not sit idly by and watch the evil Hydra continue to harm SHIELD.
In the SHIELD base, Coulson and Grant hugged each other and said, "I didn't expect you to be sent abroad so soon. Otherwise, I will talk to the human resources department and ask them not to let you go to such a desolate place. I don't think it's necessary..."
Grant shook his head and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end. He just turned around in silence, but what Coulson didn't see was that the moment he turned around, he showed a very complicated expression, as if some of his beliefs were shaken.
"Okay..." Coulson didn't force it. He walked up, put his arm around Grant's shoulders and said, "I know you are a passionate person, but you are not good at speaking. If you have any difficulties in New Mexico, you must contact me in time." Grant nodded perfunctorily. After Coulson sent him away, he murmured to himself in confusion: "...Are there too many agents sent abroad recently? And they always go to those desolate places, such as New Mexico and Montana..." Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, Coulson, you must not let Director Fury hear you say this, otherwise he will question your professionalism again. It is estimated that there must be some secret experiments..." After that, he didn't care about it anymore and left. When Schiller met Grant in Arkham Sanatorium, he handed him a piece of paper. Grant looked at the paper. There were dense words written on it and a signature at the bottom, but Grant didn't reach out to take it.
Schiller said to him: "Everyone who comes here will receive the detailed rules of the security plan. Now is a special period. I have the right to deal with anyone who violates the rules. Don't think you are an exception, Mr. Ward."
Grant kept staring at Schiller, but he couldn't find any flaws in him until he saw Schiller's signature on the rules. His name was spelled "Schiele".
That is not the commonly used spelling in the United States, but comes from Germany and Austria.
Grant took a breath, took the paper, and said, "Will you guarantee the safety of all the agents here?"
"I will guarantee the safety of all the loyal people here."
Grant and Schiller stared at each other for dozens of seconds until the atmosphere was completely frozen, and Schiller said, "I hope everyone here has something to do."
Grant stood up from the chair, stepped back a few steps, and then turned and left. After leaving the room, he clutched the paper with the rules and cursed in his heart: "Damn NAZI..."
The next day, Grant smelled a strong smell of blood as soon as he opened the door. He took two quick steps, crossed the corridor, looked down from the patio, and then saw two bodies covered in blood.
Schiller stood by the stairs. When he saw Grant, he put his hand on the handrail and said, "I was just about to ask you to come over, Mr. Ward."
Grant walked down the wall, staring at Schiller's face and said, "You killed them..."
Schiller shook his head and said, "They killed them by their own actions."
"Aren't you afraid that the patients will find out?!"
"Didn't you notice that it's much quieter here than before?" Schiller turned his head to look at the corridor and continued, "This sanatorium building has a long history, and the lines are aging and urgently need to be repaired, otherwise there may be a risk of fire, so it needs to be temporarily closed for a period of time to rectify."
Grant Grant walked to Schiller and frowned, saying, "What do you want to do? Turn this place into a concentration camp?"
"Then you'd better pray that you are not a prisoner, are you?"
Schiller looked at him and said, "I know you are Garrett's adopted son. He trained you to be a Hydra agent and killer. You have a twisted feeling for him and want to avenge him."
"You are not loyal to Hydra, but only to Garrett, right?"
Schiller's very ordinary question made Grant feel a little depressed. He knew that if he gave a positive answer, he would definitely get the same result as the two corpses, or in other words, this bloody scene was meant to warn him.
He felt that he had really become a prisoner in the concentration camp, and this warden was no different from those lunatics. Grant knew that he could only take it slowly.
So, he took a step forward, still with a straight face, but made the most common salute gesture among Hydra, and then shouted: "Long live Hydra!"
Schiller stared at him for a long time, then said expressionlessly: "...Long live Hydra."
Grant and Garrett are both characters in "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." If you are interested, you can go and see it.
