Seven minutes later, the scene of the secret room reappeared in front of everyone in SHIELD.
This time the footage was not from Luke's camera, but from the battlefield recorder of the SHIELD rescue team.
Without much hesitation, two people from the rescue team rushed into the dilapidated wooden house.
Then they quickly sent back a "safe" report, and four more people immediately entered, leaving four people to block the front and back of the cabin.
The battlefield recorders of the six rescue team members who entered the room scanned every corner of the wooden house to confirm again that the house was safe.
There were no suspects, no explosives, no moving objects, just two bodies and one living person on three chairs.
Yes, Garrett and Ward, the male guests, are indeed out of luck.
Of course, strictly speaking, Ward had just died and his body was still warm, so he wasn't completely cold.
The only female guest, Hill, is still alive.
It's just that she was injected with anesthetic and fell into a coma.
When everyone in SHIELD heard the news, their originally heavy mood improved slightly.
Nick Fury secretly breathed a sigh of relief. There were really not many senior agents he could rely on.
Although Hill is only a level 5 agent, slightly lower than Phil, she is "most likely" not involved with Hydra.
It’s not that all the agents have problems, but it’s impossible to find out whether most of them have problems, so they can only be excluded from Nick Fury’s plan.
What happened next was something the SHIELD rescue team was very familiar with.
He silently collected the bodies of his two colleagues, then put their black body bags into the helicopter that arrived later, and sent two people to escort the bodies and the unconscious Agent Hill back to the Triskelion headquarters, while the rest of the people continued to track down the whereabouts of Jeff.
After all, they were only a few minutes late, and Jeff couldn't have run far.
In the dark night sky, the helicopter's beacon light flickered, heading south away from the wilderness.
The leader of the rescue team encouraged everyone: "Cheer up, don't miss any clues, we must find that stupid clown."
…
Twenty minutes later, a black body bag disappeared silently on the SHIELD helicopter, and Ward, with a pale face, slowly sat up.
The bullet hole in his chest disappeared instantly, and his complexion returned from the paleness of a dead person to the rosy complexion of a normal person.
He turned his head to look at another black body bag next to him, and it immediately disappeared from the helicopter.
Then Ward looked at Hill on the other side and smiled silently.
He stretched out his hand and touched the blood on his chest, then left a small, incomplete bloody fingerprint on a carefully selected spot on Hill's body.
Make it look like it was touched accidentally.
Then he moved forward like a ghost, without making any sound, approaching the two rescue team agents sitting in the front seats from behind.
He opened his hands and shot two paralyzing needles into the agents' necks.
The two agents' eyes quickly blurred and they just leaned back in their seats.
Ward crawled down, leaped out of the space between the two agents on the floor, and leaped into the air.
The helicopter that was urgently dispatched was an improved version of the old Huey. To facilitate transportation, the two sides of the rear cabin were directly open.
Amid the huge wind noise, the driver in front was unaware of what was happening behind him.
Even on the battlefield monitors of SHIELD that were always monitored by someone, the images of the two agents remained still.
Without anyone knowing, the helicopter escorted two corpses and one person, leaving only Hill lying quietly in the fixed position at the back, sleeping soundly.
More than half an hour later, Nick Fury came to the helicopter with a dark face.
It’s not that the director suddenly gained super powers and can fly, but that the helicopter is now parked on the roof of the Triskelion Building.
The director ignored the driver and two rescue team agents who were standing aside with miserable looks on their faces.
He went straight to the door of Xiuyi's rear cabin, but without entering, he leaned over and looked inside for a long time.
Then he stood up and walked to the three "responsible persons": "Who can tell me what is going on?"
Agent A described the situation decisively: "I'm sorry, sir, we don't know."
Nick Fury's head seemed to be glowing with murderous intent, and his one eye stared straight at the warrior: "Don't you know? Two bodies that big, just like that... gone, and you didn't even know."
Agent B also spoke up: "Sir, I feel something is wrong. I felt like I dozed off on the way. I didn't wake up until we were almost at the headquarters."
Nick Fury: "Go on."
Agent B: "According to our training habits, even if we really need to take a nap, we will not completely lose our responsiveness to the outside world. But the nap just now made me feel like I was missing some time."
Nick Fury raised his hand and beckoned to the back, and an agent immediately stepped forward: "Take them for routine checks, with drug tests as a priority. Find an expert to check this helicopter thoroughly. I want to know who did this."
…
Far away in New York City, the second-level clone was sitting in a Williamsburg restaurant, eating red velvet cake with a smile on his face.
Who did it? Of course it was Luke.
The first-level clone used super disguise, then shot himself, and then used the hibernation ability, and a "Ward corpse" that had just died and was not yet completely cold appeared.
If he hadn't happened to encounter an old-fashioned open-cabin helicopter like Hughie, he actually planned to make Garrett and Ward disappear from the SHIELD morgue.
As the saying goes, there is no evidence in death.
Garrett and Ward are dead, but they died in the video footage, so those who doubt that they are alive will still doubt it.
And if he has been checked by the rescue team, the possibility of him being really dead is even greater.
But Luke's purpose is not to determine the life or death of Garrett and Ward, but to turn these two Hydra members into "Schrödinger's cat".
He personally appeared on the scene and deliberately created this special situation of being half dead and half alive, both dead and alive.
On the one hand, both Nick Fury and Hydra are unsure about the life or death of Garrett and the other man, so they will act more cautiously.
Being careful means wasting time, which can give Luke more time to fish in troubled waters and gain more experience points from Hydra.
Even if the purpose of delaying time is not achieved, it is no big deal. It is just a play that takes less than an hour in total.
Small investment, high returns, why not do it
On the other hand, Garrett is dead, but Clairvoyant can live.
The Clairvoyant did a really good job of keeping secrets, so Garrett’s death had nothing to do with the Clairvoyant.
Even if some people know that there is a connection between the two, they will fall into the "Schrödinger" fallacy set up by Luke and will not be sure.
Now, the Clairvoyance Organization naturally became Luke's possession.
