Chapter 536: A Ghost Named Xunzong... (Part 2)
Black Widow has never been trusted. This is well known to every congressman, military general and even S.H.I.E.L.D. member.
She can stay here only because she is a genetically modified person like Captain America, and has excellent intelligence work ability. More importantly, she defected from the Soviet Union to the United States, and the symbolic significance is greater than the practical significance.
Natasha naturally understands this, but she will still stay here safely, in fact, it is mainly because of Nick's operation.
After Nick himself hollowed out S.H.I.E.L.D., the people below are not only untrustworthy, but also very incompetent, and their country is still alive, so they need a lot of intelligence. In addition to paying their salaries, Nick has to create a lot of useless intelligence to fill their appetite.
And Natasha, she is also not trusted, but she is very capable. More importantly, the Soviet Union is dead, and Nick has no need to fool her with empty intelligence. Paying less, but being able to use a better employee, Nick will certainly use it to the fullest.
Therefore, for a long time, Natasha has been Nick's confidant and the mainstay of SHIELD. Since joining the Avengers, most of the work dealing with superheroes has been done by this female agent.
I have to admit that she is beautiful, sexy, and good at dealing with people. She gets along well with everyone in the Avengers.
And what the person said before to the vice president is also right. Natasha is indeed the opposite sex who has the most frequent contact with Schiller.
But the actual situation is probably completely different from what they think. Natasha's contact with Schiller is mainly for two things. One is to come to inform Schiller that Nick has come up with a genius and wonderful doctrine, or after getting information from Schiller, go to inform Nick that Schiller has come up with a brilliant and genius idea.
The second thing is to be responsible for picking up and dropping off when Schiller needs to foster Pikachu.
Generally speaking, the first thing will be shrouded in an inexplicable smell of money. When Natasha conveys messages to Nick and Schiller, she is mostly immersed in the shock of her understanding of certain macroeconomics.
As for the second thing, in most cases, Natasha will use 90% of her energy to cover Pikachu's mouth.
Even so, it is another matter in the eyes of the congressman and the vice president. There are so many SHIELD agents, including many female agents. Why is it that Natasha has the most contact with Schiller?
What is the difference between Natasha and other female agents? Isn't it just that she is a Soviet?
You two are here to make contact, right? !
But the same thing, left and right are compared. Compared with Schiller, who has the idea and ability to revive the Soviet Union, Natasha, who is just a possible KGB spy, looks much more shaken.
When Natasha was invited to the secret meeting room, she was holding a cigarette in her hand. The female agent took a puff of the cigarette, put her long red hair behind her ears, blew a puff of smoke at the secretary who poured water for him, and smiled at the other party's panicked reaction.
Just as Schiller felt before, when Black Widow focused on releasing her charm to a certain man, almost no one could refuse.
The reason why the Avengers rarely have this feeling is because they are not the target, and Black Widow is too lazy to waste her expression on them.
"What do you want to ask?" Natasha's English always has a Russian accent, but it is not tough, but the ending tone is raised, which seems a bit seductive.
The interrogator lowered his head and tried not to look at Black Widow's face, but when the smell of smoke filled the air, many charming fantasies churned in his heart, making him start to shake his mind and lose his mind involuntarily.
"Are you KGB?" The interrogator asked.
"Don't ask such obvious idiotic questions. I am a Soviet and a former Soviet agent. You ask me if I am KGB?" Natasha leaned on the armrest to smoke.
"So, are you still a KGB agent now?"
"You asked another stupid question. I'm already in the United States. Do you think I'm still a KGB agent? Even if I am, do you think I'll admit it?"
Natasha's strategy for dealing with interrogation is different from Schiller's. She answers every question, actively cooperates, and has a good attitude, but in the end all problems will return to the starting point.
"Honestly, since you are all planning to cooperate with Russia, why do you still care about the KGB? The Soviet Union no longer exists. Even if someone wants to revive it, it has nothing to do with me."
"Don't you want Schiller to revive the Soviet Union?"
Natasha shook off the ash of her cigarette, lowered her eyelids, covered her eyes, and after a while, she took another puff of cigarette and said, "If he really comes back, I will definitely die, and if I don't die, it means he is not really back."
"Honestly, things have come to this point, so don't worry about it. That era has passed, and I don't plan to go back."
The interrogator on the opposite side hesitated for a moment, and seemed to have no idea how to start. He heard the explanation of the congressman in his headphones, so he asked:
"How is your relationship with Schiller?"
Natasha raised her eyelids and said, "You should know that the relationship between any agent and a psychiatrist is not very good."
"But don't you have... um, the same faith?"
"Faith? I haven't heard this word for a long time."
Natasha took a deep puff of cigarette, and after exhaling the smoke, her beautiful face was shrouded in a blurry mist. She said:
"I admire him very much. After experiencing that era, he can still maintain his faith and intend to put it into practice. He can, but I can't."
"Those things I believed in have long been shattered. Now, I am just an agent who works for money. You give me a position and a salary, and I will work for you. It's that simple."
"Then you..." The interrogator turned his palm and said, "If , Now we want you to approach Schiller and use your usual method to contain him and find his weakness. Would you agree? "
"You can just say seduction. I said, as long as you give me money, I will do it, but I can't guarantee the effect of the task. Moreover, since you don't trust me, it's a waste of time to let someone you don't trust to get information from someone you don't trust, isn't it?"
"We want to know as much as possible about Schiller Rodriguez to ensure that he will not suddenly spread his ideas in some inappropriate ways when he is emotionally excited."
"I also said that I can accept this task, but there is no way to guarantee the effect. Seducing a radical leftist with mind reading ability..." Natasha shook her head and looked at him with a sympathetic look, as if she felt that his IQ was worrying.
The interrogator on the opposite side was indeed a little speechless, but the congressman in the headset kept urging him.
The voice of an interpreter came from his headset: "Hold her, we are searching her personal belongings. We must ensure that she can be trusted before we can talk about the real plan..."
The interrogator pressed the headset and pretended to accept the new question. Natasha's face remained unchanged and she continued to answer all the questions. The two of them pulled for a while, and the interrogator suddenly heard a panicked voice in the headset.
The interrogator interrupted the conversation again. He pressed the headset, as if the signal was not good. Natasha also stopped very skillfully. She drank a sip of water and enjoyed the intermission leisurely.
Finally, the interrogator got up and left the room. He pressed the headset and heard the slightly panicked voice of the congressman opposite:
"Stop the investigation immediately and let her go!"
"Why?" The interrogator said a little puzzled: "She has already started to ask for compensation. Maybe we can shake her..."
"I say, let her go!" The congressman said hysterically.
"We searched her makeup bag and found the Order of the Red Banner of the early Soviet Union!!!!"
"She even has the Order of the Red Banner!!!!"
After yelling, the congressman panted, took a break, and then said: "Go back and let her leave."
"But if she is really a KGB, don't we arrest her?" the interrogator asked.
"Arrest her? If that Rodriguez knew that we arrested his 'comrade', who is also a comrade with the Order of the Red Banner, what do you think he would think?"
"Uh..." The interrogator was choked, and then could only say: "Okay, I'll go back and inform her."
After that, he turned and walked into the room, opened the door with railings, and said to Natasha: "Ma'am, the investigation is over, you can go back."
"What about your seduction plan? Didn't you talk about the reward part?"
"After thinking about it, the Congress felt that this plan was indeed not feasible, so you can leave."
Natasha glanced at the interrogator, raised her chin, nodded slightly, turned and walked out.
After returning to SHIELD, Natasha returned to her bedroom, took the makeup bag, walked out of the bedroom, and went straight to the psychological counseling room, where Schiller was waiting for her.
Natasha walked to the table, but did not sit down. She put the makeup bag on the table, took out the medal from it, and handed it to Schiller.
Schiller, who was writing the medical record, looked up and put down his pen, but did not take the medal. He asked, "Don't you want it?"
Facing Schiller, Natasha was no longer in the tense, deadly and seductive black widow state. She moved a chair and sat down, leaning on it lazily, then placed the medal on the table and said:
"Someone wanted to give me a medal, but at that time, I didn't want it anymore."
Natasha looked at the medal, smiled mockingly and said, "But I didn't expect that after I left him for so long, his power was still protecting me."
"It's enough that he came before." Schiller reached out and took the medal.
Schiller looked at Natasha and asked, "They investigate you like this every day, don't you want to fight back?"
The midday light illuminated the room very brightly, and also made the shadow of Natasha's drooping hair on her face more intense.
She seemed to have never shown her vulnerable side, even now. Perhaps this is the characteristic of the people of this country. Even now, they are not afraid to mock themselves with the most straightforward jokes.
"Fight back? How can a stray dog who can only rely on others fight back?"
Schiller showed a somewhat bad smile, pinched the medal with two fingers, and placed it between him and Natasha. Both of them looked at the medal. He said: "This is the best weapon."
"Medal? You mean..." Natasha also looked into his eyes. There was suddenly some tacit understanding between the two of them, and a smile appeared on the face of the female agent.
Natasha leaned back, leaned back against the back of the chair, exhaled a puff of smoke, and then said: "The Medal of Patriotism that Nick prepared before has not been used yet. He also has a way to get more..."
"Pop", Schiller slapped the medal in his hand on the table, and then said:
"Since their allergies are hopeless, then it's time to do some desensitization treatment."
