A grateful kiss will not change anything.
At least Leon thinks so…
In the next few days, Leon took the new agent Natasha Romanoff, who had just joined S.H.I.E.L.D, to go through the formalities for employment, application for residence, and so on.
After finishing all the complicated procedures, Natasha Romanoff bid farewell to Leon and officially went to S.H.I.E.L.D's evaluation training base-Cocoon.
Since she was an agent who defected from the "Red House" of the Russian intelligence agency, S.H.I.E.L.D needed to conduct a series of evaluations and a month-long background investigation to confirm that she was not sent as an undercover agent.
This is a very normal internal operation of the organization, for which Natasha Romanoff also expressed his understanding…
Saying goodbye to Natasha Romanoff, returning to Leon, New York, after many days, he returned to his residence again.
He had just finished his Russian mission, and he was on standby until he received a new mission.
On standby means that there is nothing to do.
However, just after a long trip to Russia, Leon also felt that he needed a little time to adjust his physical condition.
After all, the gunshot wound on his back reminds him from time to time that he needs time to recover…
. . . . . .
I don't know if S.H.I.E.L.D's special medicine is powerful, or Leon's body is recovering quickly. After only three days, Leon found his wounds when he was looking in the mirror, and they started to scab!
During the period, Phil Coulson was also busy and came to visit him once.
When he found out that Leon had nothing to do, and lay down at home as a fat mansion with a look of enjoyment, he did not come again.
After all, as one of Fury's confidants, he is also very busy…
In addition to his uncle, two friends, Gemma Simmons and Leo Fitz, also visited him.
Especially as a biochemist with two PhDs, Gemma Simmons also brought to Leon a quick recovery agent he developed, so Leon wanted to hold her and shouted "Simmons cattle X!"
Thanks to this restorative, Leon's gunshot wound quickly recovered.
As soon as the body is well, someone's turbulent heart can no longer fall silent…
That night, the night was dim, and the prosperity of New York was still there.
After staying at home for a few days, Leon, who was so idle, some missed the beauties of New York, ready to go out for a wave.
Who knows, just as he changed his clothes and was about to leave, the door of the apartment rang very timely:
"Kang-bang-bang!"
The rhythmic knock on the door caused Leon's body to pause slightly, and he was puzzled. As he walked, he muttered in a low voice, "Who is it at this time?"
However, when Leon opened the door, he was surprised to find that the person standing at the door turned out to be the head of S.H.I.E.L.D-Nick Fury!
The completely unexpected visitor stunned Leon for an instant.
"Don't you invite me in?"
Fury's slightly ridiculous words made Leon, who was dumbfounded, wake up like a dream.
"Oh, please come in!"
After speaking, he quickly stepped back and gave way to the house.
Fury, wearing a black trench coat, walked steadily into the apartment whenever and wherever.
Looking at Fury's back, Leon's heart, for some reason, began to tense.
What is he doing? What is the purpose?
It's not that Leon is suspicious, but it's Fury's sudden visit, which is a bit abnormal.
In other words, Fury is not the kind of enthusiastic person who cares about his subordinates and visits in person…
"Speaking of it, this is the first time I have come to your house…" Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Fury looked around and asked, "How is it? Are you accustomed to living?"
Standing in the kitchen, Leon, who was about to pour Fury a glass of water, raised his brow when he heard this question, "Well, it's okay, I'm still getting used to it."
"After all, I just lived here for two months…"
After speaking, he came to the living room with a glass of warm water and handed it to Fury.
"thanks."
Fury took a sip and put it on the coffee table.
Inferring from the other's actions since the moment he walked in, Leon felt that Fury should have something to say to himself. . .
Before he could ask, Fury spoke first:
"Your mission this time is absolutely very good!"
"From Romanov, we learned a lot of highly classified information about the Red House. This information is very helpful for our various future operations in Russia and for maintaining peace."
"It can be said that this is all your credit…"
As soon as he came up, Fury gave Leon a big compliment. This was something Leon hadn't expected.
However, what was even more unexpected to him was the sudden change in Fury's attitude:
"but!"
I saw Fury scowling and staring at him with the only remaining eye, "I am still not satisfied with your performance on this mission!"
coming!
Leon cheered up abruptly, and even his body, which was sitting very straight, tightened every muscle.
He vaguely felt that the next words were the reason Fury personally came tonight…
Fury's "instruction" continues:
"In this mission, you did a very good job in collecting intelligence and lurking. However, you have forgotten one very important thing…"
"Do you remember, what else did I say when I brought your attention to Black widow?"
From Fury's eyes full of "dissatisfaction", Leon finally realized Fury's intentions.
It should come, and it will come!
From the moment he disobeyed the order, Leon was ready for Fury to ask questions.
It's just that everything went so smoothly according to his plan that it made him think that Fury should or might not delve into his little things.
who knows…
With many thoughts in his mind, Leon could only open the corners of his bitter mouth and whispered to Fury's question: "You told me not to hesitation, and don't be merciful, just kill her…"
"Yes!"
Although Fury was still sitting motionless on the sofa, the icy cold radiating from him made Leon very clearly feel the majestic aura of the observer hiding in the shadows.
"If I understand correctly, this is a clear order! And to obey the order is the bounden duty of being a subordinate!"
Hearing Fury's words, Leon was speechless. He could only press the corners of his mouth tightly, bearing the accountability he should have been.
"The ability to change strategy according to the situation is a very good trait. I also appreciate it. But that is the job of a commander."
"And your job is to do your best to fulfill the tasks and orders given to you by every superior!"
Fury's body leaned forward slightly, like a lion about to sprint hard to catch the prey in front of him, looking at Leon's eyes, and saying word by word:
"This time, it depends on your original intention, to better complete the task, and you will not be held accountable for defying orders…"
"But, let's not take it as an example!"
