NOVEL NEXT Chapter 44
Chapter 44 – Looking For Help?
“Dad, someone knocked on the door! Did they come to see you?”
Elizabeth, who was resting on the bed, also heard the knock on the door, propped herself up with her hands, blinked her big moist eyes and asked Patch.
“probably!”
Patch smiled and replied, but he was actually very puzzled. He didn’t know many people in this world, only Sister Maiwes and Dean Magellan who raised him in the orphanage, and the two of them He was already so old that he would basically not come here to look for him, so who is the person knocking on the door now?
Patch couldn’t figure it out either.
But when Patch walked to the door, stretched out his hand to open the door, and saw the man standing in front of him, he immediately understood.
Coulson, who was wearing a black suit and had a rather high hairline, was standing at the door of Patch’s house. After Patch opened the door, he quickly greeted with a smile, “Hello, Mr. Meiwes.”
“Colson?” After opening the door and seeing him, Patch couldn’t help but look a little surprised, and asked aloud, “Why are you here with me? Don’t you agents have many missions? Why are you always three?” Running towards me at both ends of the sky?”
Hearing Patch’s words, Coulson couldn’t help being a little embarrassed, because the meaning in his words obviously didn’t like him very much!
But after working as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. for so many years, Coulson has gradually gotten used to being unpopular, because probably as long as he is a normal person, he would not like a bunch of agents always running to his home!
So although it was a little embarrassing, Coulson thought Patch’s reaction was normal.
Coulson looked at Patch with a smile, and said cheekily: “Mr. Meiwes, I came to see you this time for a special matter, and it is inconvenient to talk outside, can I tell you in detail after I go in? “
Glancing at Coulson up and down, Patch pursed his mouth helplessly, turned sideways and waved his hands and said, “Okay then! Coulson, please come in.”
Coulson smiled and nodded to thank Patch, and then walked in.
After closing the door smoothly, Patch turned to look at Coulson, and asked aloud, “Colson, if you have anything to say, hurry up! I don’t have much time to spend time with you.”
But Coulson didn’t answer Patch’s words, but pointed to the little loli Elizabeth who was sitting on the bed and asked Patch, “Mr. Meiwes, may I ask, who is this?”
“This is my daughter Elizabeth.” Patch went to the bed and sat next to Elizabeth, putting his arms around her small shoulders and introduced to Coulson.
After the introduction, Patch immediately said with a strange expression: “Don’t you should have known it a long time ago? Why are you asking me so much?”
“Mr. Meiwes, you’re joking. This is the first time I’ve seen your daughter? How could I have known that?” Coulson’s face froze, but he immediately reacted and said with a light smile.
“That’s right! Dad, this is the first time I’ve seen this uncle! How could he know me?” Elizabeth who was on the side also seemed extremely puzzled when she heard Patch’s words.
“Pretend, continue to pretend for me.”
He touched Elizabeth’s head, Patch didn’t answer her, but chuckled, turned his head to stare at Coulson, and said aloud: “Colson, do you dare to say that the person who watches me around here every day is not your god?” Sent by the Shield Bureau? And a few days ago, I saw your people go to the small supermarket to ask Mrs. Grant about me and Elizabeth?”
“I’m afraid you SHIELD should be able to understand all my daily activities or what I do?”
After hearing Patch’s words, Coulson couldn’t help but smiled awkwardly, looked at Patch with some embarrassment, and responded: “So you already knew Mr. Meiwes! If this is the case, then I I don’t want to hide it, the person monitoring you is indeed sent by our S.H.I.E.L.D.”
“Very good, enough to be honest!” Patch gave Coulson a thumbs up, but then his voice suddenly changed, he looked Coulson up and down, and said out loud: “Colson, to be honest, I actually think that an honest person like you is really not suitable to be an agent, and I can hardly see the temperament of an agent in you.”
“Mr. Meiwes, many people have said so, but I am still doing this job.” Coulson responded with a chuckle.
After Coulson finished answering, Patch seemed to suddenly think of something, and said aloud again: “By the way, Coulson, what I said to you and Mei before still counts. If you resign from Aegis If I come to help me with the work of the bureau, I will definitely welcome it, and you can follow me to learn magic for free!”
“Mr. Meiwes, thank you for your kindness. Since I rejected you last time, this time will certainly be no exception, so…”
“Okay! I understand what you mean.” Stretching out his hand to interrupt Coulson’s next words, Patch stood up and asked aloud: “Now you can tell me what you came to me for. “
“Yes, Mr. Meiwes.”
Coulson nodded, then smiled and said, “Actually, I only have two things to do here. One is to ask you about your recent purchase of Stark Industries stocks, and the other is…”
“etc…”
Coulson was halfway through speaking when he was interrupted by Patch, who looked at Coulson with a strange expression and said loudly: “Coulson, why do you want to buy a stock from S.H.I.E.L.D.?” Can’t you manage it? Besides, the money I bought the stocks was obtained legally by myself, so it doesn’t look like I have any illegal income, right?”
“Mr. Meiwes, if it is a normal stock purchase, of course SHIELD will not take care of it, and of course I also know that your funds for buying stocks are legal income.”
Seeing Patch’s reaction, Coulson couldn’t help but believe his speculation even more, and then said: “But the stock you bought is hard not to attract our attention.”
“A stock that has been falling continuously, you are willing to spend all your money to buy it~www.mtlnovel.com~ If I am not delusional, it must be that this stock has some value that we don’t know , and this stock was issued by the famous Stark Industries, of course the most important thing is Mr. Meiwes…”
Having said that, Coulson paused for a moment, and looked at Patch with a half-smile in his eyes, “I chose to buy it when the stock price fell after Tony Stark, the helm of Stark Industries, was kidnapped.” , based on these reasons, we have to be suspicious of you.”
“So Mr. Meiwes, could you please explain why you did this?”
Seeing that Coulson seemed to see through his eyes, Patch felt very upset, but after seeing the mysterious smile that seemed to be there at the corner of his mouth, Patch couldn’t help but lose in an instant.
“Well, I admit that I do know something inside.” Spreading his hands, Paqi said helplessly: “It’s just that I can’t tell you what the inside story is.”
“That’s the end of this matter. Don’t you have one more thing, Coulson? Let’s talk about it!”
“Hehe! I’m afraid it’s not as simple as a little inside information?” Coulson smiled secretly in his heart, but in order to take care of Patch’s face, Coulson did not choose to say these words, but talked about Patch’s question. The second thing to come.
Coulson’s expression became serious in an instant, he stared at Patch, and said solemnly: “Mr. Meiwes, in fact, another thing is the main purpose of my visit today. I am here for our S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fryte came to you for help.”
“Ask for help?”
