A retired reincarnation of a certain American film.

The news that Mengmeng is also missing must not be hidden.

Unless Luke imprisoned Lucy like Hydra, Lucy would definitely know about it.

But Luke didn't intend to hide it.

When we were on the Whitehoe freighter, we didn't tell Lucy because the time and place were wrong.

at the moment.

Lucy was out of trouble, and her nervous energy was slowly recovering, so there was no need for Luke to hide this matter.

After Luke finished talking about Mengmeng being kidnapped, Lucy didn't show too much excitement. At most, she just rolled her eyes and fainted.

This reaction...

Lu Ke said that it was within his acceptable range.

At night.

Lucy woke up from her coma. When she opened her eyes, she saw Luke who had been sitting by the bed. She came to her senses and hugged Luke while crying.

"Mengmeng, my Mengmeng."

"Do not worry."

Luke didn't say anything else, he just comforted Lucy who threw herself into his arms again: "I will find our daughter. Look, didn't I find you?"

In fact he lied.

Because compared to Wu Daxiong, who kidnapped Lucy and left many loopholes, Dr. Bai, who has kidnapped Mengmeng, has not left many usable clues.

Whether it was from Earl's side or the federal military's side, the clues almost always reached the Busan base and then were interrupted.

There is no clue as to where Dr. Bai left after leaving the Busan base.

There are only two possibilities for these two situations.

Either Dr. Bai's anti-tracking skills have reached the maximum level, and he can escape unharmed under the joint investigation of the FBI and the military.

The second possibility is that someone is helping Dr. Bai escape.

Luke favors the second possibility.

Because if this Dr. Bai really has full anti-tracking skills, then she should not show up from the beginning and reveal her biggest flaw.

That means she has been abroad.

This is the biggest flaw.

But if it is the second possibility, a new problem arises.

Who is helping her?

Luke's eyes twinkled while hugging and comforting Lucy in his arms.

at this time.

There was a knock on the door.

Luke came back to his senses: "Come in."

Jack opened the door and walked in from the outside: "Boss, Lao Chen and Zheng Xiuhui have arrived."

Lucy, whose eyes were red from crying, suddenly raised her head when she heard this: "Mom and Dad."

The words fell.

Lao Chen and Zheng Xiuhui passed by Jack, came to the room, and appeared in Lucy's sight.

The next scene is naturally a scene of reunion.

Luke wisely stood up from the bed and gave the room to Lucy's family. Jack seemed to have something to say to him, so he walked out of the room and closed the door.

"what happened?"

"Maria Hill is here."

"here?"

"Correct."

"Walk."

Luke turned his head and glanced at the room behind him where crying could be heard, and then walked outside: "Where is she now?"

Jack followed closely: "Conference room on the third floor of the administrative building."

In the conference room.

Luke took Jack and pushed the door open. At first glance, he saw SHIELD Commander Ms. Maria Hill, Hawkeye Agent, and Black Widow Agent already sitting in the conference room.

Maria Hill stood up from her seat, smiling.

"Chief Dane."

"Commander Hill."

This is the first time Luke has met Maria Hill.

First time offline.

and so……

Although it was the first time for the two to meet, they were not strangers because they had met online several times. After shaking hands, they sat down on the sofa with a relaxed atmosphere.

Neither Luke nor Maria Hill immediately brought the topic to the current matter. Instead, they both made a frank announcement about the unpleasant and pleasant things between the FBI and SHIELD. of communication.

after awhile.

Maria Hill looked at Luke with a smile: "Dr. Bai, do you have any clues?"

Luke shook his head.

"Looking for it."

"SHIELD will also do its best to help."

"Thank you."

Luke politely said thank you to Maria Hill.

Maria Hill waved her hand and then changed the subject: "However, fortunately, at least Lucy is back. This is good news. By the way, Lucy is not injured."

Luke raised his eyes and looked at Maria Hill.

next second.

Lu Ke smiled slightly and said, "I was a little frightened, but other than that, it's pretty good."

He was not surprised at all that SHIELD would know that Lucy was rescued by him.

To be precise.

Luke never thought of hiding this matter.

This was known from the moment he let the Seoul detective go.

Maria Hill heard this and said with a smile: "It's okay, but if Ms. Lucy Chen knew that Mengmeng was also missing, she would probably..." Luke interrupted: "She already knows."

Maria Hill raised her eyebrows.

Luke shook his head, glanced down at the small white crystals on the chest of his suit jacket, looked at Maria Hill, and said with a wry smile: "I cried so sadly, I just woke up."

Maria Hill didn’t know what to say for a moment.

But someone knows.

Luke crossed his arms, leaned on the seat behind him, looked at Maria Hill, and went straight to the point: "Commander Hill is here to find out what happened on the Whitehoe freighter."

Hill's thoughts were spinning, but he remained calm on the surface.

"If I say yes, will Director Dane tell me?"

"of course."

Luke spread his hands and said frankly: "Since you all know that Lucy was rescued by me, it means that I have no intention of hiding it from you. However, SHIELD will not blow up the Whitehoe because of me. , come and arrest me.”

Natasha and Hawkeye looked at each other but said nothing.

Maria Hill is smiling.

"Then it depends on whether there are any living creatures on board when Director Dane blows up the freighter."

"What if not."

"Some secrets that shouldn't be known to ordinary people are better buried forever."

"Then what if there is."

"It depends on my mood."

"Ok?"

Luke listened to this non-standard answer and looked at Maria Hill.

Maria Hill said with a smile: "If there are still people alive on the boat, it depends on whether Director Dane can give me a suitable reason for me to choose not to arrest."

Luke said nothing and looked at Maria Hill quietly.

Eyes facing each other.

quite a while.

Luke retracted his gaze from Maria Hill, then his gaze fell on Jack beside him, and said with a smile: "This is why I keep telling you, compared to that black braised egg, I prefer to talk to God Reason for dealing with Shield Commander.”

Jack said nothing, just nodded in agreement.

Anyway, his attitude is the same.

Whatever the boss says, that’s what it is.

next second.

Luke stood up and invited Maria Hill, and then the four of them once again came to the laboratory where the human-wolf monster was kept.

William Stryker, with his eyes shining at the moment, wasted no time doing various data tests on the human-wolf monsters imprisoned in the confinement room.

After seeing Luke leading Maria Hill and others, he stopped reluctantly, and then looked at Luke with resentful eyes.

It seems to be saying...

Good guy, why did you bring the imperial army here?

Aren't you afraid that Maria Hill will discover that our two attributes are a little bit like a hydra?

Luke gave William Stryker a relieved look directly.

Maria Hill walked to the explosion-proof glass and looked at the human-wolf monster in the confinement room that had been put on the X-gene inhibitor, and was a little surprised.

"This is the half-human wolf found on board the Whitehoe."

"Correct."

Luke nodded and walked to Maria Hill's side: "In order to protect the pure nature of the ordinary world, I blew up the Whitehorse. Is this a sufficient reason?"

Maria Hill looked at Luke and nodded.

"This reason is very reasonable."

"only……"

"Director Dane, you seem to have missed someone."

Maria Hill changed the topic and said with a smile: "As far as I know, the Seoul detective who was supposed to be on the Whitehoe seems to have returned to her home in Seoul. She seems to be an ordinary person and may also leak This is something that shouldn’t be known to ordinary people.”

Luke shrugged.

"She's different."

"Oh."

Maria Hill raised her eyebrows: "Maybe she is also Director Dane's lover."

Luke's mouth twitched and he looked at Maria Hill: "Commander Hill, do you have any misunderstanding about me?"

Does he look like the type to have many lovers?

Uh……

Ok.

If you think about it carefully, it does look a bit like it.

Lucy, Rachel, Seve, Mrs. Viper and most recently Helen Zhao.

But on the surface, there is no such thing as Seve and Mrs. Viper.

Again.

Even if Cypher and Lady Viper are exposed, what's the big deal.

Are five lovers considered too many in the federal power circle?

Let's say that.

The number of five lovers cannot be called too many, but only called. He has not even reached the lowest passing line.

Moreover, when it comes to relationships, he always pursues them voluntarily, without any coercion.

and so……

Luke looked at Maria Hill with a serious face: "Commander Hill, you must admit that men like me are definitely the most classy and bottom-line men in the entire federal system."

At least during the Chinese New Year last year, when a governor invited him to go on vacation to an overseas island, he didn't go with him.

Of course.

Luke didn't bother to care about this matter.

Again.

Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others.
