Joseph felt he had been cheated.
Shortly after receiving the order from S.H.I.E.L.D., he and Grant Ward came to this remote town to investigate the case of the mysterious murders on Elm Street.
At the beginning, according to what Grant said when he came, this was the daily mission of SHIELD field agents and there was not much danger.
He believed it at first. After all, he had a relationship with Colin and was an important person anyway.
Sending him on missions is probably just a way for SHIELD to make him understand SHIELD better and develop stronger feelings for the organization.
He was even prepared for some unexpected events during this mission, such as a murderer suddenly holding him hostage and Grant risking his life to rescue him.
He has also prepared for how to respond if a similar incident really happens.
But the only thing was, he didn't expect that there really were evil spirits in this small town.
He looked down at the wound on his arm caused by the scissors. Even though the blazing sun in the sky was emitting infinite light shining on his body, he still felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave.
That dream was almost identical to reality, with a burned face and a nightmare of someone chasing him with scissors. Even now that he was awake, he was still terrified.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket, found a lighter to light it, took a deep puff, and puffed out smoke.
After being rescued by Grant, he said that he had encountered a ghost. Grant also took it very seriously and acted as if he would report it immediately.
but…
He glanced back at his and Grant's makeshift base and let out a deep breath.
He is not a very smart person, but he is definitely not a stupid person either.
Being able to become a policeman on your own and become successful in the police station and the jurisdiction is something that only a fool can do.
Colin's plan, his current situation, and SHIELD's attitude towards him, although he didn't say these, he knew them all clearly in his heart.
And now, SHIELD didn't let him leave, but instead asked him to wait here for some support. There is definitely something wrong.
Otherwise, if this was just an accident, with his special identity, the people from SHIELD would have nervously transferred him back long ago, and would not have let him continue to be in danger.
Of course, even if he knew this, it would be of no use.
He is powerless and does not have the ability to resist the will of SHIELD. Now, he can only take one step at a time.
However, if he really finds out that SHIELD is planning to kill him to achieve some purpose, don't expect him to just accept his fate. Even if he takes someone with him before he dies, that would be good enough.
He threw away the cigarette butt that was left, stepped on it, exhaled a long breath, and walked outside.
…
“…yeah…I understand…”
In the small town stronghold, Grant stood by the window holding the phone and kept answering calls.
The call was from Coulson, mainly telling him that the target had been hooked and might come at any time, so he should be careful at all times.
He had prepared for all these before going on the mission, so naturally he wasn't nervous at all.
But what surprised him a little was the second half of what Coulson said.
As a double agent of Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D., and an important participant in the missions of the Kintek Group, he knows some situations better than Nick Fury.
For example, some basic information about the Blacklight virus has been circulated among a certain level of Hydra circles.
But what he didn't expect was that Blackwatch, led by Peter Randall, could actually leak the Blacklight Virus.
Even though he had contributed a little to this, it still felt incredible to him when it really happened.
He briefly thought about the possible consequences of the virus outbreak, but soon he collected his thoughts, took out his mobile phone, and located and eavesdropped on Joseph's location.
The shoes that Joseph wears, the buttons on the collar of his coat, the automatic buckle on his belt, and his cell phone all have various monitoring devices.
Even if all of these were discovered and destroyed, the locator implanted under the skin without Joseph's knowledge would still allow them to find Joseph.
So he did not restrict Joseph's range of movement, because no matter what, Joseph could not escape his Five Finger Mountain.
The only thing you really need to pay attention to in this mission is to not let Josel really die.
…
The existence of the portal made distance no longer an obstacle, and in just one step, Colin and his team arrived in the United States from Dubai.
Of course, due to the limitation that the portal must be connected to a place he has been to, he could only find a place closest to Elm Street to teleport.
However, even if he had been there before, he would not be teleported there directly.
Even if the chances were small, he had to consider the possibility that SHIELD was lying in wait there, ready to annihilate him.
This is just right now. While on the road, he can also do a rough investigation.
The complete set of suits brought about a powerful improvement in attributes. With the comprehensive support in all aspects, his speed became much faster. When traveling at full speed, running a hundred meters in two seconds was no problem.
In just over an hour, they traveled more than a hundred kilometers and arrived near the town.
After exploring the town and making sure there were no ambushing troops nearby and his danger senses did not detect any fatal danger, he walked into the town.
Speaking of the name Elm Street, he couldn't help but think of a horror movie called A Nightmare on Elm Street. The evil ghost named Freddy in the movie had once been a shadow in his childhood.
However, this was only ten minutes ago.
"Is this Freddy?"
In an alley, Colin looked at the evil spirit held in his hand with some disappointment.
Before coming, he was still a little wary. After all, although his job was to control these kinds of creatures, if it was completely based on the setting of A Nightmare on Elm Street, Freddy did break the fourth wall in the end.
But now it seems that he is just an earthbound spirit with the ability to enter dreams. Although it is a plus point that he has rationality as an earthbound spirit, there is nothing more special about him.
Looking at Freddy begging for mercy in his palm, he turned his palm and the undead magic surged, destroying it.
If Freddy could leave town, he might even take him in as a ghost pet, using him to do things that were inconvenient for him to do.
But since Freddy can't leave the town, there is no value in living.
The shrill screams could be heard throughout the spirit world.
Seeing Freddy completely reduced to ashes, Colin took a step and walked out of the alley.
Freddy's appearance was only an appetizer for him, and now he wanted to see the quality of the main course.
Hope... he won't be disappointed!
He shook his neck slightly, and his figure disappeared from the spot in a flash.
Some Kaven...
