Ficool

Chapter 18 - 18

Inside the Quinjet, Hawkeye Barton said to Nick Fury, "I told you not to take risks; you almost got into trouble."

Nick Fury exhaled and said, "I didn't expect him to be able to control a Quinjet. This time, I was careless."

"His ability is indeed terrifying."

Barton asked, "What do we do now? Gather forces to besiege him?"

"Don't act rashly for now. Wait until we understand all of his capabilities."

Nick Fury shook his head and said, "Even if we have to make a move, it can't be in Manhattan. Manhattan can't afford another disaster."

Barton nodded, "You're right. You just got chewed out by the council, so you can't have any more screw-ups for a while."

"Do you know that eavesdropping on high-level meetings is punishable by death?"

Nick Fury looked annoyed. He ordered, "Go to Malibu Villa. I need to see Iron Man."

"Iron Man is in New York right now. If you want to see him, why don't you just go to him directly? Why go to Malibu Villa?"

Barton was initially puzzled, then reacted, "Wait, you're not thinking of sneaking into his villa and scaring him when he gets back, are you?"

"How could I, the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., do something so absurd?"

Nick Fury shouted unhappily, "I'm going to Malibu Villa for my own reasons. You don't need to ask."

Barton scoffed, "That's best. Otherwise, be careful Iron Man learns from Andrew Wang and calls the police."

Nick Fury rolled his eyes. Today was definitely a dark day in his history.

That night, Nick Fury successfully gave Tony a huge scare. Uh, no, in Nick Fury's words, this was called deterrence, letting the other party know that S.H.I.E.L.D. is omnipotent.

Besides, how could a dignified Agent head knock on the door and pay a visit?

Tony said with a dark face, "You S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents really did steal my father's data, otherwise it would be impossible to shut down Jarvis."

"Really?"

Nick Fury was taken aback. He said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't steal your father's data. In fact, your father Howard was one of our S.H.I.E.L.D. founders. Also, S.H.I.E.L.D. owns some shares in Stark Industries."

"My father was an Agent?"

Tony was greatly astonished. He asked unhappily, "Why do I know nothing?"

"Your father hid it from you to protect you."

Nick Fury handed Tony a tablet and said, "Tony, this world is never safe. S.H.I.E.L.D. has been working tirelessly to protect this world. I hope you can participate in this operation."

"Wow, how noble? Should I give you an award? A 'Can't See the Light of Day' award?"

Tony snorted. He took the tablet, casually glanced at it, and immediately froze: "Vampire?"

In a flash, time came to the hot month of July. The battle in Manhattan gradually subsided, and the people of New York gradually got used to Iron Man flying around in the sky, and also to a talkative Spider-Man swinging around the City.

At the same time, they also got used to Kuaishou. During this period, Kuaishou's download volume soared, and it has become the most popular software in America.

"Spider-Man: Hero or Public Menace?"

In the editor-in-chief's office of The Daily Bugle, Andrew looked at today's headline and asked Editor-in-Chief Jameson, "Why do you slander Spider-Man every day?"

"BOSS, I'm not slandering Spider-Man. Everything I say is the truth. If Spider-Man is truly a hero, why doesn't he openly take off his mask, like Iron Man?"

Jameson spoke eloquently, "Spider-Man, and that Flame Knight who appeared a while ago, they both have problems, and might even be bad guys."

Andrew casually said, "Is that so? Oh, by the way, have I ever told you? I am that Flame Knight."

"Ah?"

Jameson was dumbfounded. His boss was actually Flame Knight? Is it true or false? Also, why would such a major secret be blurted out so casually? Will he be silenced?

"BOSS, you misunderstood!"

Jameson immediately changed his tune, "I meant Spider-Man might be a bad guy. As for Flame Knight, he is an angel descended. In fact, I prepared an article praising Flame Knight, I just haven't had time to publish it yet."

Andrew raised his eyebrows: "One article?"

Jameson immediately said, "No, I misspoke, it's ten articles. I prepared ten articles praising Flame Knight. He is the savior of Manhattan, the protector of New York. Iron Man and Spider-Man are not even qualified to compare with him."

"Very good."

Andrew nodded with satisfaction. He asked, "Who took this picture of Spider-Man? It's very clear."

Jameson pointed to the young man outside the window and said, "Parker took it, the silly one."

Andrew turned his head and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar Peter Parker standing outside, looking reserved. From his old clothes, it was clear that his family was not well-off.

"This appearance seems to be a combination of two versions of Spider-Man? In other words, the first two versions of the Spider-Man movies have merged."

Andrew's eyes flashed. He specifically came today to see Spider-Man and get some clues.

Andrew withdrew his gaze and said to Jameson, "He does seem a bit silly."

Jameson said proudly, "His conditions are actually not bad. However, I won't make him a full-time employee because I want to buy the Spider-Man photos he has at a low price."

Andrew chuckled, but didn't say much. Although he could make Spider-Man's life better with just one sentence, he was a Hell Lord, not a philanthropist.

Moreover, he didn't need an employee who neglected his duties, constantly ran off to save people, and got paid for nothing.

Andrew said, "Jameson, you have a lot of potential. Work hard, and when The Daily Bugle stabilizes, I'll consider giving you some shares."

"Thank you, BOSS."

Jameson was overjoyed. Seeing Andrew getting up to leave, he hurriedly said, "BOSS, we recently received some special intelligence. Should we publish it?"

Andrew asked, "What special intelligence?"

Jameson whispered, "Intelligence related to Vampires. At first, I also thought it was nonsense, but someone took a picture of a Vampire. Also, according to my investigation, there have been many bodies with their blood drained appearing in hospitals recently."

"Vampire?"

Andrew was taken aback. Could it be Blade? If so, the five merged worlds would be complete.

"I haven't really watched Blade. It's worth investigating. Maybe I can collect some souls."

Andrew thought for a moment and said, "Give me the information. Don't report Vampires directly. Just report the facts and let the readers guess and debate among themselves."

Andrew was preparing to investigate the Vampire matter himself because he was very idle now.

Susan was working overtime at Rebirth Group, Howard was working overtime at Kuaishou Company, the Three Demons were working overtime at the investment company, and Teslak was working overtime in Hell. Therefore, Andrew was very idle and could do whatever he wanted.
