Merlin was troubled by something.
He tried to find a solution to the problem, but unfortunately, the people around him and the information he could find did not have the answers he longed to see.
Merlin speculated that in the database of the Strategic Science Legion, there should be some information related to magic and wizards, which is also an important reason why he accepted Fury's recruitment.
The undersea man Vico once told him that in order to completely solve the dark power entrenched in Merlin's body, he needed to find the answer from the realm of black magic. As the dark power eroded him faster and faster, Merlin once again felt the urgency.
He must find a way to save himself before he is crushed by the power of darkness.
And Natasha Romanov, who is in front of him now, is undoubtedly another breakthrough. If Black Widow is really as mysterious as Fury said, then Merlin should be able to get some joyful good news from her.
However, this is quite difficult.
The woman in front of you is definitely not a good-looking lamp.
"wizard?"
Even with Natasha's knowledgeable knowledge, she was stunned by the question raised by Merlin at this moment.
She looked at Merlin in front of her through the glass. She thought the little guy was joking with her, but judging from Merlin's serious expression, he should not be joking.
"I didn't expect that you have grown up, but you are still like a child."
Natasha let out a thoughtful laugh. She bent down and looked at Merlin in front of her, and she said:
"Do you still believe in the children's stories of magic and wizards?"
"Every's vigilance, he would soon find something wrong with the sound collection device. So we don't have much time left."
Merlin said to the woman in front of her in a calm voice:
"I just want to know the answer to this question, but you are not the only choice."
Natasha's expression suddenly became gloomy at this moment, like a face change. She stared into Merlin's eyes and said:
"Why should I tell you? Or if I'm going to be more blunt, what can you give me?"
"Like you said, what I can give you depends on what you want."
Merlin made a circle and Natasha in front of him showed a disdainful smile, she said:
"Can you give me freedom?"
Merlin shook her head.
"Can you give me a future?"
Merlin shook her head.
"Can you give me a new life?"
Merlin shook her head.
"So, what's the use of talking about these things to me in a big mess?"
Natasha yawned, and she turned around and walked towards the bed, seemingly losing all the interest in talking.
But behind her, Merlin whispered:
"I can do my best to protect you. As long as you need it, I will save you no matter where you are."
"oh?"
Natasha turned her head, she looked at Merlin with a smile, and she said:
"Why should I believe you? You men are the best at lying girls. They promise to make promises, but they always find opportunities to leave before things get worse. This is a man."
"Swish"
At this moment, Merlin's right arm turned into drifting black smoke and appeared next to Natasha along the gap in the glass. She gently touched Natasha's smooth chin like an invisible hand. Before the female agent reacted, the black smoke suddenly dissipated again.
This process takes less than 1 second.
Merlin, who was sitting in the chair, looked up at Natasha and said:
"As long as I know where you are, I can save you. I'm not kidding."
"interesting!"
A trace of splendor flashed in Natasha's eyes. She turned around and came to Merlin again. Through the glass, she looked at the handsome young man in front of her, and said:
"You are Fury's real trump card, no wonder he is fearless."
"Okay, I'll help you! Little guy, remember what you said."
"Bang, bang, bang"
The knock on the door sounded at this moment. Merlin and Natasha looked at each other, and the two nodded slightly, and the deal was reached.
Merlin stood up and took back the smoke that covered the recording equipment. He opened the door, and Fury stood in front of him and whispered to him:
"Get out first."
"What's wrong?"
Meilin asked with a confused look on her face:
"I just started chatting with her."
"nothing."
Fury said as usual:
"There is something wrong with the monitoring equipment, and you will talk about it later."
"Yeah, OK."
Merlin left the room with a normal expression. Behind him, Natasha watched Merlin leave. A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face, but it was fleeting.
She said to Fury who entered the room in a lazy voice:
"You really should teach that kid how to keep it secret, Fury. I just guided it a little, and he told me the name of Agent Patton, Ms. Carter's current situation, and what you are planning to transform recently, I said why did you suddenly think of me? Fury, you also feel the threat, right?"
Natasha sighed, as if she was feeling the world, and she said to Fury:
"Organizations like the Red House and the Legion of Strategic Science are only useful during wartime. Once the war is over, the government's first knife will be cut at us. The rabbits are dead, what's the use of asking for a hunting dog?"
Fury's answer was also very interesting. He glanced at Natasha and said:
"The war is over? No. The Soviet Union fell, but your colleagues are still active. In Europe, South America, North Africa, and Central Asia, your forces have not suffered much damage, and they have lost the constraints of the rules, and they will even be more dangerous than before. Natasha, you see, this is the problem you are facing now."
"You want to be a hare? Or a hound?"
"I need to think about it again."
Black Widow whispered:
"Give me some more time. To be honest, if I promised too well, you will become suspicious, right?"
"Then keep thinking."
Fury exited the lockdown, he said:
"Natasha, for your safety, don't play tricks, okay?"
The confinement room returned to quiet again. In the faint light, Natasha stretched and lay back on the bed. She closed her eyes and began to think about future problems.
As Fury said, after escaping from the pursuit of Red House, she had to think about the future.
A few hours later, the plane flew across the Atlantic Ocean and after successfully entering North American airspace, Agent Patton and Fury changed their shifts. Fury sat in front of the surveillance screen with coffee. He looked at the confinement room under the surveillance. Natasha Romanov had been lying on his bed, and she seemed to be sleeping well.
Fury drank a cup of coffee, he picked up a document and started reading.
That was a report on the reorganization of the Strategic Science Legion in a few days, and in a few days the institution will usher in a major reshuffle. Even senior agents like Fury who were personally recruited by Ms. Carter into the organization, it is difficult to guess what the organization will look like in the future.
No one knows whether this change is good or bad, but under the current international situation, it is an unstoppable trend that various intelligence organizations have been weakened.
Just as Fury was focusing on the report, in the lockdown room, Natasha, who was sleeping, suddenly felt a hand on her cheek. She suddenly opened her eyes and heard a faint sound.
"Shh, don't move! Speak quietly"
“Merlin?”
Natasha's body maintained her sleepy appearance, she closed her eyes again and said in a whispering voice:
"Is it you?"
"Um."
Merlin, hiding in the shadow cloak, looked around and looked at him, and he moved a step to hide himself in the darkness, he asked:
"Things about the wizard"
"No rush."
Natasha's voice was a little more interesting, she said:
"You said, if I jumped up and shouted now, what would happen to you?"
"Swish"
A sharp fighting knife pressed against Natasha's neck, and Merlin's cold voice came into her ears:
"Natasha, are you threatening me?"
"No, I'm just reminding you, Merlin."
Natasha turned over and said:
"We are now on the same boat. I hope you tell me how Fury is going to treat me. Look, I am a lonely and poor woman with nowhere to settle down. It is necessary for me to understand the life I will live in the future. You are an agent of the Strategic Science Legion. I think you are more trustworthy than the two of them, so tell me, do you think this organization is trustworthy?"
"You asked the wrong person."
Merlin took back the fighting knife and said calmly:
"My knowledge of the Strategic Science Legion is far less than you. I have only been officially promoted for less than 5 days. Maybe you should take some time to ask Clint, and he knows more than me."
"Okay, then do you know Fury?"
Natasha asked again, Merlin's answer this time was hesitant for a moment, and he said:
"I know Fury officially joined the Strategic Science Legion in March 1988, and before that, he seemed to serve the military."
"You know too little about the people around you, Merlin, sooner or later it will cause you trouble."
Black Widow snorted, and she said softly:
"Nick Fury, born on July 14, 1950, is from Alabama. After graduating from high school, he has been engaged in military espionage work and retired from the rank of colonel in 1986. During the Cold War, he had conducted many very successful infiltration espionage activities in Belfast, Bucharest, Belgrade and Budapest as an excellent spy."
"His name and information are third-level secrets in the Red House, and he destroyed our operations several times. Page Carter would take the initiative to recruit him into the Strategic Science Legion because Fury is born to be suitable for the work of agents, and he knows no less secrets than me, and he is very good at keeping them secrets."
Natasha let out a nearly empty chuckled, like a cunning fox:
"He thought he hadn't seen me before, but I've seen him more than once. Do you understand what I mean? Merinik Fury is a complicated person. I guess you must have asked him questions about wizards and magic before, but I also know that he certainly didn't answer you positively."
"Why did you say this to me?"
Merlin asked in surprise:
"Are you trying to instigate me?"
"You can think so, or you can take it as a kindness of my kindness, or an investment, Little Merlin. If I decide to work in the Strategic Science Legion, then I have to make a new friend with potential in advance and find a way to alienate him from an old friend."
"It just so happened that I heard an unexpected news a few days ago that the legendary Ms. Carter recruited another mysterious person to her institution before retiring."
"That's you, right?"
Natasha snorted, she seemed to feel Merlin's surprise, she said:
"Do you think your organization is airtight? No organization in this world has no eyes! The strategic science legion is not absolutely safe, just as you shouldn't blindly follow Fury. Just Merlin, let's make a deal."
"I tell you what you want to know. When I need help within the Strategic Science Legion in the future, you must help me as quickly as possible. OK?"
Merlin did not answer immediately. He pondered for more than ten seconds, and finally, he breathed a sigh of relief:
"Okay! Deal!"
"So well-behaved"
Natasha was stretching her hands out, and her fingers gently stroked the back of Merlin's hidden hands, she said:
"In Britain, to be precise, London."
"In some of the old information I found from MI5, it is said that in the old town of London and some ancient places outside the suburbs, there were some wizards hidden. They were isolated from the world, resisted communication with ordinary people, but had their own small circles. It is said that during World War II, there was a mysterious magic consultant next to Hitler, whose code name was "Dark King". At the same time, there were also a group of wizards supporting them on the Allies."
"I have heard my predecessors talk about it in the red house. It is said that there are also some mysterious creatures in the wilderness of Western Leslie. They have already left the world for a long time, and they are like living in other spaces."
The black widow said like a dream:
"It is said that only those gifted people can see them and contact them. There is no doubt that they are talking about people like you, Little Merlin."
"What else?"
Merlin asked, while Natasha had a smile on her face:
"I'll tell you what's left later. No smart intelligence merchant will sell all valuable information at once. Okay, leave here, I'll have a good sleep."
"We will be colleagues from now on, Merlin."
