General Phillips, Howard, and Director Carter are arguably the founders of the Strategic Science Corps, while Li Nan and Rogers are the biggest contributors to this organization, and he is also one of the oldest members.

Originally, Li Nan thought that after the Strategic Science Corps was reorganized into S.H.I.E.L.D., their old friends and colleagues would still be the same as before, but now it seems that things have changed.

Carter and Howard knew about Li Nan's search for the whereabouts of Hydra and mutants for many years, but now that a mutant is being held in a secret prison of S.H.I.E.L.D., he hasn't heard any news, which is very revealing.

Maybe S.H.I.E.L.D. still has more information about mutants, but now it's all kept secret from Li Nan, an outsider.

Suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, Li Nan opened his mouth and asked, "Since this young man killed some bandits when he was kidnapped, it should be legitimate defense, so why is he being locked up here?" ”

"No, it's not that we're holding him here," the warden explained. ”

"Oh, can I take him away?"

"Of course, as long as Mr. Advisor, you can get Alex's consent."

Li Nan came to the cell where Alex was being held, and the prison guard stepped forward and opened several iron locks on the door.

Walking into this small cell of less than twenty square meters, Li Nan looked at Alex, who was sitting on the bed, without raising his head, and was silent.

After guessing Alex's current psychology, Li Nan said after half a ring: "I can teach you to control your abilities, are you willing to go with me?" ”

Alex was a little moved by these words, and he finally raised his head and asked, "What can a person like me do when he goes out?" ”

Li Nan gave two reasons: "Enjoy your good years and join us in the fight against those evil criminals." ”

No one likes to be locked up in prison, and Alex certainly does.

Alex is a kind-hearted kid who asks to be locked up in prison because he fears that he will hurt innocent people if his abilities get out of control.

After hearing Li Nan's assurances at this moment, Alex's long-dormant heart finally moved, but he still confirmed that he was law-abiding: "Is your team approved by the government?" ”

Li Nan smiled: "Of course, this team is temporarily under the orders of the CIA and S.H.I.E.L.D., have you heard of these two agencies?" ”

With these two well-known US government departments as guarantees, Alex, who had long wanted to go out to see the blue sky and white clouds, and ate chicken and fries, readily agreed.

After recruiting Alex, Li Nan then visited some mutants, but none of them were too good, so he had to take everyone back to the CIA's secret research base in New York.

Charles and Eric and the others came back first, and they had a similar fate to Li Nan, and after selecting hundreds of mutants, only Aman and Sean were recruited.

Let Raven and Hank take these newcomers to familiarize themselves with the environment, and Li Nan and Charles and the others were taken to the conference room by the fat minister.

There were not many people in the conference room, but they were full of weight, and Li Nan, as a well-informed media tycoon, naturally recognized the two directors of the CIA.

The tall, lanky middle-aged man sitting at the top was called Dulles, the fifth director of the CIA.

Perhaps because of the long-term confrontation with the Soviet Union and the fact that he spent too much effort, Dulles, who was just over fifty years old, had gray hair, but after all, he was born in a military background, and his words and deeds gave people a sense of rigidity.

Sitting next to Director Dulles was Deputy Director McCurn, who was also the de facto commander of all major CIA activities.

Dulles and McCurn, as the two most powerful in the CIA, have long investigated the identities of Li Nan and others, so after seeing them, they didn't show a surprised look.

After everyone sat down, Dulles was the first to speak: "Advisor Li Nan, Agent Natasha, I would like to welcome you people from S.H.I.E.L.D. to this operation team on behalf of the CIA......."

"Hehehe." Li Nan had heard a lot of this kind of official talk, so he said directly: "Director Dulles, let's just talk about it later." ”

Although Li Nan saw through his routine, this is nothing to Dulles, who has seen countless storms.

So Dulles continued: "However, we CIA and S.H.I.E.L.D. are two agencies after all, so I hope you can keep what happened here a secret. ”

Dulles's words were also deserved, Li Nan nodded and said: "I participated in the hunt for Xiao with Natasha and Eric, but because of personal grievances, it will not involve S.H.I.E.L.D., please rest assured." ”

"That's good." Although he didn't fully believe Li Nan's assurance, Dulles still chose to share some information, he pointed to the deputy director next to him and said, "In that case, McCurn, you can introduce the latest information about Xiao." ”

McConn motioned to close the curtains, and then he turned on the slide projector on the table, and several magnified images immediately appeared on the big screen.

The angles of the photos are different, there are planes shooting at high altitudes, and there are secret agents shooting in close-up shots, but there is a familiar person among them, that is Xiao.

The first photo shows several buildings in the middle of a dense forest, and judging by the wide golf course and tennis courts, this should be a place to relax and relax.

And those few gray and white tall buildings, there is only one country in the world that will have such an architectural style, and that is the Soviet Union, a big country in the East.

In the next few photos, Shaw is seen in a white suit, meeting with several Soviet generals.

It is not known what they were talking about, but based on the previous recording, it is speculated that Shaw should be acting according to the plan, preparing to provoke Soviet radical generals to retaliate against the deployment of missiles by the United States in Turkey and Italy.

Tapping the building on the big screen with a slender and retractable silver baton, Deputy Director McCoen introduced: "This is the Soviet military resort, Shaw lives there now, and his lobbying of the radical generals is not over, so we need to know their specific plans and intentions." ”

Seeing the two bureau chiefs looking at these people beside him with burning eyes, Li Nan asked, "You CIA have countless well-trained agents, why don't you send them to investigate this matter?" ”

"If someone finds out that CIA agents have infiltrated a Soviet military resort, it will definitely make things worse, so ......"

McCurn hinted so clearly that this time even the simple Professor Charles understood what the other party meant.

"So we're civilians the best choice?"

Dürer admitted: "That's it, we are responsible for helping you to enter the country, and you will do the details." ”
