However, this incident was an accident; John was the one who provoked it. Moreover, John isn't a good person, so besides making S.H.I.E.L.D. more wary of him, there shouldn't be any trouble.
"Screech!"
The sound of sudden braking interrupted Su Zhan's thoughts.
"What's wrong?" Su Zhan asked hurriedly.
"I'm afraid… we have trouble," Skye said in a low voice.
Outside the car, a black jeep blocked their way. Its dark body and reinforced glass indicated it wasn't something an ordinary person could afford.
"Stay in the car!"
Su Zhan said, then got out of the car with his lighter.
Black Widow leaned against the jeep in a black catsuit. Seeing Su Zhan get out, Black Widow brushed her hair and said with a smile, "I knew you wouldn't be so well-behaved, but I didn't expect you to act so quickly. Fireman John, his Ability shouldn't be that strong, right? I didn't expect you to choose his Ability!"
Su Zhan played with the lighter in his hand, the flame flickering up and down. "I also knew you would continue to monitor me, so you should know that he was the one who came looking for trouble with me!"
"Yes, but don't you think it's too coincidental? You just happened to be going to that restaurant, and you just happened to have a conflict with him when he came out!" Black Widow narrowed her eyes, staring at the lighter in his hand.
It was clear she was on guard.
Currently, it was only known that he had absorbed Extremis and Fireman John's Ability, but who knew if he had any other Abilities? How could Black Widow be careless when dealing with such a dangerous person?
"Believe it or not, it's up to you. Anyway, you people never trust anyone," Su Zhan said, shrugging. "So, let's talk about why you're here. You're not just trying to scare me, are you? You shouldn't be that idle!"
"Alright, I'm here to invite you and your little girlfriend to S.H.I.E.L.D.," Black Widow said, pouting.
"What if I refuse?"
Su Zhan narrowed his eyes, and the hand holding the lighter stopped moving.
"Hey, don't be nervous. Things aren't what you think, or rather, it's not aimed at you, but at your little girlfriend. The hackers of the Tide organization, they've been very active recently, constantly releasing information that shouldn't be known to the world yet," Black Widow said with a smile.
Su Zhan pouted: "Whether it's aimed at me or her, it makes no difference to me. S.H.I.E.L.D., I'm not interested for now, so you can go back."
"What if I refuse?"
Black Widow said the exact same words.
Su Zhan pouted. "Then we'll just have to fight!"
"Are you serious?"
"If others don't offend me, I won't offend them. I really want to maintain a very friendly relationship with you and S.H.I.E.L.D., but the premise is… you don't mess with me or the people around me," Su Zhan said, glancing at Black Widow, then turned and got back into the car.
"Let's go."
Su Zhan said to Skye.
Skye started the car and slowly drove away. Black Widow did not stop them.
"If others don't offend me, I won't offend them? How long has it been, and you've already become boyfriend and girlfriend with a hacker from the Tide organization? How can I believe what you're saying is true?" Black Widow muttered to herself, then turned and got into her car.
Chapter 0010 A Woman's Intuition
Trident Base, S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters.
Director Nick Fury, the one-eyed Director, wearing his signature black trench coat, looked at the virtual screen in front of him.
The screen showed footage of Su Zhan fighting John. Nick Fury pressed a button on the remote control and held the document about Su Zhan in his hand.
There was a 'list' in S.H.I.E.L.D. This list recorded people with superhuman Abilities. Of course, it was also a monitoring list. After Su Zhan appeared, he had already entered this list.
"Director."
A knock on the door sounded, and a woman walked in, Maria Hill.
Fury's assistant at S.H.I.E.L.D.
"How is the Tahiti project progressing?" Nick Fury asked.
"Everything is going smoothly; it shouldn't take too long." Maria Hill hesitated for a moment and said, "Are you really sure? I think this is a very risky action."
"How are the candidates?" Nick Fury didn't answer but continued to ask.
Maria Hill knew that his decision would not change, so she handed over the document she had brought with her.
Nick Fury opened it and looked.
There were records of several people on it.
Melinda Mei, code-named 'Cavalry.'
Leo Fitz, high-tech weapon physics expert.
Jemma Simmons, biologist and high-tech weapon expert.
Grant Ward, operations expert, Level 7 Agent!
And the last person, Skye, super hacker, Tide organization member!
Looking at this list, Nick Fury hesitated for a moment and said, "Add one more, Su Zhan!"
"But…"
Maria Hill's words were cut off by Nick Fury's wave of his hand. "His Ability is very special, and his identity is very mysterious. We don't know if he's good or evil. Having him join the team will make it easier to judge. Moreover, he's with Skye now, and it will probably be difficult to separate them. Let's do it this way. Give this list to 'him' then, and let him handle it!"
"Yes!"
…
"She seems to have a very unusual relationship with you?" Skye suddenly asked.
Su Zhan was dumbfounded and said, "I thought you would ask about the situation, but I didn't expect you to ask this first."
"A woman's intuition is very accurate. I noticed the way she looked at you," Skye said.
"I noticed it too. It was a look of caution. She came to invite us to S.H.I.E.L.D., but I don't think it will be very friendly, so I refused. However, she knows your identity," Su Zhan explained. "But it doesn't seem to be a big problem, so this matter can be ignored for now. You just need to know that no matter what, if anyone wants to deal with you, they must step over my corpse first!"
"Because you are my girlfriend!"
"Understood, dear!" Skye smiled sweetly, and that little bit of jealousy vanished. "But dear, you're really amazing. Fireman John is a very powerful guy, but I didn't expect him to be no match for you. And… you absorbed his Ability, right? So, you can also control Fire now?"
"Of course, if you want, I'll put on a fireworks show for you tonight!" Su Zhan said with a smile.
"Alright!" Skye said happily.
