"You should believe it!"
Inside the apartment, sitting on the sofa, Su Che kept replaying the scene of meeting Natasha Romanoff in his mind.
When he first saw Natasha Romanoff enter the coffee shop, Su Che immediately reminded himself to "simulate" the scene described in the diary.
After Natasha Romanoff sat down opposite him, the sense of world-weariness in his eyes, along with the surprise and nostalgia of seeing an old friend, was instantly amplified to the extreme.
If he hadn't deliberately suppressed it, the surge of intense emotion in his heart might have made even himself believe that he truly was the Avenger from the parallel world fabricated in the diary.
Reviewing the subsequent conversation about "looking for a temporary job" and his own performance that morning, he found no flaws.
Well, thankfully, the system's reward simulated the experiences I wrote in the diary. Otherwise, pulling this off would be really difficult.
After all, they are professionals; they can tell at a glance if an untrained commoner is lying.
Opening the system interface, he saw that Natasha Romanoff's trust value had increased by less than ten percent.
This was a good sign; it indicated that Natasha Romanoff wasn't suspicious of him. At least for now, she didn't strongly doubt the contents of the diary he had fabricated.
Resting his chin on his hand, he thought that perhaps he should add fuel to the fire.
After all, according to the personality he had crafted for himself, after meeting Natasha Romanoff, he should write a diary entry to express his inner emotions.
This fits the basic character profile!
Well, since Nick Fury sent Natasha Romanoff over, I'll focus my efforts on her for now.
It was a pity that Wanda currently had the highest trust level, already reaching 90%.
This was likely due to their solitary meeting in the Blossom Woods and those love stories full of regret he had written.
After all, Wanda was only fourteen years old now, right at the age of yearning for romance.
So, to gain her trust, he could fabricate some...
Uh... why does this sound like a big bad wolf tricking a little white rabbit?
He cleared his throat.
Opening the system's composition page, Su Che began to think about how to connect himself to Natasha Romanoff.
Recalling the Black Widow movies he had seen, her relationship with Dr. Banner, and her bond with Hawkeye, Su Che's eyes suddenly lit up.
Got it!
After organizing his conceived ideas, Su Che prepared to start writing the third diary entry.
This entry shouldn't only detail his relationship with the Widow sister but also write about events that were about to happen.
This would ensure that Nick Fury and Natasha Romanoff believed in him even more.
And he couldn't forget about Wanda.
Although Wanda's trust in the diary's content had reached 90%...
Tsk, just ten percent short.
Whether I can become stronger depends on you, my lovely Wanda!
After organizing his thoughts, Su Che began to compose.
S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury's Office.
After dealing with the daily documents that needed sorting, Nick Fury turned his attention back to the Avengers roster.
This roster was revealed in the Black and Gold diary.
Although some individuals were still unknown to him, that didn't prevent him from guessing some names.
Such as Tony, Natasha Romanoff, Barton, Dr. Bruce Banner, etc.
Additionally, he had already begun sending agents to monitor Dr. Pym.
Even though he knew the man might not be the Ant-Man written about in the diary, it didn't stop him from having him watched to see if he was preparing to train a second-generation Ant-Man.
It had to be said that with the contents of the diary, Nick Fury felt much more at ease regarding his plans for the Avengers.
Although he still needed to consider factors like the members' personalities, methods, and modes of operation, at least this Black and Gold diary had given him a rough framework.
While he had pondered for a long time whether the horrifying and desperate apocalyptic catastrophe described in the diary's first entry would happen in the future, Nick Fury preferred to focus on the present and start laying the groundwork for the Avengers.
If the Avengers could be assembled in advance, then perhaps the diary's claim that "S.H.I.E.L.D. is not the real S.H.I.E.L.D. and is not worthy of trust" would become less relevant.
He would have more cards to play!
Checking the Black and Gold diary from time to time to see if it had been updated had become part of Nick Fury's daily routine.
If it weren't for... tsk.
He really wanted to arrest Su Che, lock him up alone, and force him to write diary entries every day, or simply interrogate him directly about future events.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do that.
Whether for the sake of the future Avengers or for Su Che himself—the superhero from a parallel world—taking such action would do more harm than good.
Glancing at the computer screen in front of him, Nick Fury checked the diary again.
Seeing that the third entry still hadn't appeared, he felt slightly disappointed.
Just as he was about to close the diary, pale gold text slowly began to appear on the page the next moment.
Seeing this, Nick Fury immediately perked up.
Simultaneously, he pressed a button under his desk.
Even though he knew it was impossible for anyone to be monitoring his office and that others couldn't see this diary, some precautions were necessary.
After all, the diary had clearly stated: S.H.I.E.L.D. was not as pure as he currently believed!
