"You mean, you want to take leave?" In Nick Fury's office, Nick was lying on the office chair with his feet on the table, looking at Natasha in front of him and asked.
"Yes, sick leave!" Natasha said through gritted teeth.
"Sick leave? Are you sick? Then you can go see our psychiatrist." Nick said, shaking his head.
"I got sick just because I saw a psychiatrist!" Natasha said in a louder voice: "This week, I saw a psychiatrist at least 15 times a day! Even if you want to lower our insurance factor, you don't have to use such a dirty method.
What a means?!"
"No way, this is the price of hiring multiple Schillers. Who makes him a psychiatrist?" Nick shrugged and said: "Whether it's Schiller who can settle accounts or lead Hydra, who can do anything?"
Schiller, who is a doctor, they are all psychiatrists. If there are no patients, they will not stay here honestly."
"This is not the reason why you use me as bait to catch three Schillers!" Natasha said angrily: "There are so many SHIELD agents, why can't we share the work equally???"
"Please, Natasha, how many agents in the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. agency can stand up to scrutiny?"
Nick put his feet down, pointed to the room next door, and said: "In the office opposite, there are a total of 9 agents, 8 of them are Hydra, and one is from the CIA. Most of them are also undercover from Hydra to the CIA."
"In that office over there, there are a total of 12 agents and 6 civilian personnel. Except for Agent Carter, they are all Hydra. Of the remaining 6, 3 are KGB disguised as Hydra, and 3 are
The KGB pretending to be the CIA, and you send them to see a psychiatrist?”
"I..." Natasha choked and said, "But I am also a former Soviet citizen. I was just under investigation for suspicion of Soviet espionage not long ago..."
"Yes, Schiller is also a Soviet spy, so you are the one to go." Nick said with a smile.
Natasha took a deep breath, raised her head, looked at the ceiling, and couldn't even find a word to describe the current situation in SHIELD.
Now, the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. has 100% professional agents, 99% Hydra, half of the Hydra are CIA agents, half of the CIA agents are spies from all over the world, and half of the spies from all countries are
of the KGB.
And she, Natasha Romanov, a professional agent from the former Soviet Union, was neither Hydra nor the KGB, and she became a unique oddity among the huge S.H.I.E.L.D.
So, when the famous Soviet spy Schiller needed a patient who could receive psychological treatment, Natasha became the first choice.
Since there were so many things to complain about, Natasha didn't even know where to start. She only knew that she couldn't go on like this. Any normal person would have to endure dozens of psychological abuses in a few days.
The treatment should be crazy, but Natasha is not crazy yet, which only shows that she is really professional.
"In short, I quit!" Natasha said very forcefully: "If you ask me for psychological treatment again, I will surrender to the IRS!"
Nick stared at Natasha and said, "IRS? I never thought that such a string of words would come out of the mouth of a SHIELD agent! How can you be so ruthless?!"
"Every time I go to church to pray, I will thank the IRS. It is the IRS that prevents you from lowering the insurance factor three times in a week. It is the IRS that gives me the confidence to resist you, an unscrupulous boss.
!”
"Don't say that, Ms. Natalia, you and I both know that this small contribution is just..."
"Don't do this to me!" Natasha was obviously going crazy. She said, "Either let someone else do this job, or I will resign. I will contact the KGB immediately and ask them to take me to Siberia."
!”
"Okay, okay, don't be so excited, ma'am..." Nick stretched out his hand to comfort: "I'll let Agent Carter go, okay? However, she is a newbie and has only recently taken up the post. You have to keep an eye on her for me.
…”
"In case her reaction to Schiller is a little too extreme, something may happen. You have to know that this is all for the sake of the overall situation..."
"Stop talking, I'm going to inform her now." Natasha turned and left.
When Carter received this order, he still felt a little confused. What kind of task was seeing a psychiatrist?
"Is this serious?" Carter said, holding the transfer order: "In the next week, I don't have to do anything, I just need to keep seeing a psychiatrist. That... I didn't take a test when I joined the company.
Yet?"
"Miss Carter, do you remember what the first rule of an agent is?" Natasha asked, looking into her eyes.
"Listen more, read more, ask less... Okay, I'll go right away. It won't be worse than waxing the deck of the space carrier." Carter put down the file and left.
As a result, before nightfall, she hurried to the office, grabbed Natasha and asked: "Is there something wrong with this? Doesn't this psychiatrist take a rest all day? And why does he have to change rooms?"
Changing clothes, is this a necessary step for treatment?"
"Remember, listen more, see more, ask less." Natasha turned around and said, seeing Carter's confused expression, she shook her head, turned and left.
In Nick Fury's office, Coulson took the newly prepared financial statements, looked at Nick and asked: "Boss, is this really okay? One Schiller is in charge of finance, one is in charge of experiments, and
A Schiller is responsible for personnel transfer... This... Isn't this a bit too much?"
"What are you afraid of? It's not like we obtained Schiller through illegal means. We just discovered many Schillers through SHIELD's complete intelligence network and then invited them to come here to work for us. What's the problem with this?
?”
"The problem is that there are so many Schillers!!!" Colson shouted: "How come there are so many Schillers?!!!"
"Colson, some of your questions always make me doubt that your rank as an 8th-level agent is reasonable. Do you still remember what the first rule of an agent is? Listen more, read more, ask less, and ask what the principles are.
?Can you resolve this year’s financial statements?”
Nick spread his hands and said: "The first Schiller we acquired helped us solve our financial problems for the next quarter."
"You know, in the previous season, two of the three accountants we hired went back to Moscow for vacation, and one 'committed suicide' on the way back to Moscow for vacation..."
"At the beginning of this season, we didn't even have an accountant. Do you want me to go find those Russians who are talking too much? They even asked me for an additional translation fee!"
"We found Schiller, who not only contracted the work of three accountants, but also proposed two financial optimization plans. God, I have never seen such a capable financial person!"
Nick stretched out a hand and clenched it into a fist, and then said: "If he works here for a long time, within a year, our space carrier fleet will be formed!"
Just when Colson was about to speak, Nick raised his voice and said: "There is also the second Schiller who has arrived. This is simply a perfect miracle doctor, with superb medical skills, hard work, and more importantly, no morals!"
Nick stretched out a hand and waved it vigorously and said: "The superior can participate in our illegal human experiments, and the inferior can use hypnosis to interrogate information. He alone can be worthy of an interrogation team. If they work here for a long time,
Next quarter we can recruit another 10,000 people!"
"And Schiller, who was the last one to come, my God, I can't say enough good things about him. No one can imagine how much trouble he helped me solve!"
"He alone is in charge of both Hydra's personnel deployment and SHIELD's field team's agent deployment, creating a workload for me of at least 40,000 agents!"
"The tasks he fabricated out of thin air and the degree of completion of the tasks made Congress praise me as the best SHIELD director in history!"
Nick's face was full of joy, but Colson felt a little guilty after touching his conscience. He said:
"The financial statements are optimized, the experiments and interrogations are illegal, the personnel are fictitious, the tasks are fictitious, and the work is fictitious... What on earth are we at SHIELD doing?"
Nick looked at Coulson like he was an alien and said, "If you ask such stupid questions again, you can be promoted to level 6 agent next year."
"What is SHIELD doing? Of course SHIELD is protecting the world!"
"But, we didn't really protect the world." Coulson said in a very embarrassed tone.
"Let me ask you, what is the purpose of protecting the world?" Nick walked up to Coulson and asked.
"The purpose is... of course to protect the world!" Coulson replied.
"No, the purpose of protecting the world is to make the world feel that it is protected. This is the meaning of SHIELD's existence."
Nick shook his head and said: "As long as SHIELD exists, authorities in various countries will feel that when various strange events occur, someone will be there to protect them."
"But if various strange events really happen and no one protects them, won't they be disappointed?" Colson asked.
Nick sighed again and said: "They had no hope at all, so how could they be disappointed?"
"No government in this world thinks that an organization led by Americans, staffed by Americans, and controlled by the U.S. Congress will save them in times of crisis. As long as we don't add insult to injury, they will feel that this is the case."
It is a rare and fair organization.”
Colson opened his mouth and found that he couldn't refute.
Nick continued: "Actually, Congress doesn't need us to do anything. As long as we exist and are actually controlled by them, they can tell the world that the United States is protecting the world. This is the whole meaning of SHIELD's existence."
"If you really want to protect the world, don't count on S.H.I.E.L.D., or any organization that has a clear banner of protecting the world."
Coulson sighed, and then said: "Okay... By the way, these are the salary statistics for this season. Director, you have to sign here."
Nick sat back on the chair, and Coulson put the report on the table. Nick took the report over without taking it seriously, and just as he was about to sign, he saw the string of numbers at the end.
With a "bang", Nick fell off the chair. He asked in disbelief: "How can it be so high? How can the salary of SHIELD be so high this season????"
"This...how high is the salary?" Nick gasped and got up from the ground, and began to flip through the document frantically. Then he saw that the item in the salary report, the name of the project was "S.H.I.E.L.D."
Agent Psychotherapy Costs”.
Looking at the long string of zeros, Nick took a deep breath, and his roar echoed throughout SHIELD:
