The Dead Master of Beautiful Manly

Chapter 224: Showdown 2

Views:

Colin sat on the chair with his legs crossed, looking half-smiley.

Nick clenched his fists subconsciously, stared at Colin for a long while, and said slowly: "Conditions."

But he didn't believe that Colin would simply hand over this bargaining chip to him.

"This is a little surprising, Chief Nick. I thought you would ask me directly for it, but now it seems that you still have some self-awareness."

He stretched out his hand and took out a lavender potion, which appeared in his hand and spun around.

Seeing Nick's sudden gaze, Colin smiled and said, "I am a person who keeps my promises and agreements. Originally, if you had investigated the whole truth about the virus leak and handed the information to me as promised, I would also abide by the agreement we made before and hand over the vaccine directly to you."

"But unfortunately, you didn't do that."

As he spoke, he looked at Nick, whose expression did not change, and said with interest, "How about this, I'll give you, Director Nick, a chance. As long as you tell me the truth that SHIELD knows now and I don't notice that you are hiding anything, I will still give you this vaccine unconditionally. How about that?"

Colin looked over with a hint of sarcasm, and Nick listened with a slight movement of his eyes.

There is no doubt that the black light vaccine must not be given up.

But, is what Colin said worthy of trust

He quickly rejected this himself.

Concealment is too subjective, and even if he really gave all the information to Colin, the chance of Colin giving him the vaccine is not high. By then, not only will he be embarrassed, but the information will also be taken away for free.

Moreover, he was now somewhat suspicious. Was it possible that Colin had not found out as much as he had thought before, so he used this method to try to get information out of him

"Tell me the terms!"

Nick said in a deep voice after making a decision.

Colin listened with a flash of boredom in his eyes. He rummaged through his pocket, took out a USB drive and threw it over.

Nick reached out and took it, looking at the USB drive with a slightly puzzled look on his face.

Colin looked at it and said, "The contents of this USB flash drive are my conditions. As long as the United States announces it to the world and admits that the contents are the truth, then I will personally give you the vaccine."

Nick listened and had a bad feeling in his heart. He glanced at Colin who was sitting on the chair, took the USB drive and plugged it into the computer in the conference room to check it on the spot.

Colin was not in a hurry. He even took out a set of tea sets from his backpack and leisurely made tea.

The aroma of tea filled the air and the sound of mouse clicking could be heard throughout the conference room.

Colin blew the rising hot air and sat in a chair enjoying the sweet tea.

After a while, after reading all the files in the USB drive, Nick looked up and stared at me as if he had suddenly realized something.

"The United States will never agree to your conditions!!"

His voice was a little hoarse. Colin put down the tea set in his hand, looked at Nick, and asked, "Why is it impossible? Is the information I gave you false, or is it that the information I gave you was all made up by me?"

"All I want is for this country to admit in person what their army has done. This can be easily done by having the president read the speech from a script at a White House press conference."

"Look, it's such a simple thing."

Nick's eyes widened and he growled, "You know what I mean!"

Colin raised his eyebrows and spread his hands, "Yes, I know, it's nothing more than some political and profit issues, but, does it have anything to do with me?"

Nick was speechless for a moment, and soon he changed his angle and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this, but you have to know how many innocent lives your vaccine could have saved if it had appeared even a moment earlier."

"Of course, I don't mean to let you pay for nothing. SHIELD has been managing supernatural events around the world for decades and has collected a lot of things. As long as you are willing to hand over the vaccine, I can let you choose any three!"

Given the temperament of American politicians, they would rather let the virus continue to wreak havoc than admit that the virus was developed by their military.

Now Colin has the support of Dubai, and ordinary resources can no longer attract him. If he wants to be sincere and tempting, he can only take out some of SHIELD's most valuable assets.

Colin listened, a little surprised.

I didn't expect Nick to choose to bleed his own family without even thinking about agreeing to this condition.

It seems that the goal of making the United States contradict itself with vaccines is probably impossible to achieve.

But he also has his own persistence.

"The secret vault of SHIELD? It sounds interesting, but I refuse."

Not to mention that SHIELD would definitely take away the really good stuff, such as the Cosmic Cube, and not let him choose. Even if they didn't do that, he would not agree to SHIELD's request.

The future plans have been made early on, and now it is no longer just his business.

He would not do such a despicable thing as to destroy all the allies' plans just for his own benefit.

"Do you really want to watch those innocent people die?" Nick said angrily.

Colin's face turned cold: "Let's get one thing clear, Nick, the virus was not researched by me, it was researched by the Jintek Group, the American Black Watch. The people who are suffering from the virus now are not my people, but the American people."

"Since the United States itself is unwilling to admit the truth in exchange for the vaccine and rescue its own people, why should I, a wanted criminal wanted by the United States, stand up and be a good person?"

Nick had a gloomy face and stopped talking.

Colin suddenly laughed and said, "Alex recovered his memory not long ago and told me how the virus was leaked before.

The agent named Sharon Carter, as I remember, was someone from your S.H.I.E.L.D., and seemed to be the niece of the legendary agent, Peggy Carter.

So from the very beginning, you SHIELD knew what the virus was.

As for me, I have studied similar viruses before and even threatened you with them.

So I understand, I really understand why you want to lure me out and involve me in this matter even if it involves Joseph and you risk angering me.

But why do you have to use this method? Why don’t you come to me and discuss it honestly

Are they afraid that I won't agree? Or are they afraid that I'm asking for too much? Or are they simply too embarrassed to ask me for help

I thought about it for a long time and finally came up with the answer.

Even though I have become very strong, even though I threatened you with the virus, you still don't take me seriously.

And the reason for this is because you have not personally felt the harm I have caused.

Nuclear bombs can make all countries afraid because the whole world has truly seen the power of nuclear bombs.

But I'm different, I just talk, I don't do it.

It was a mistake, and I am now ready to make up for it.”

Looking at Nick who was silent opposite him, he waved his hand to put the vaccine back into his backpack and said calmly: "This is the only condition I have. It's up to you whether you do it or not."

"As for the time, let's set it before noon tomorrow. After the time, we will do the publicity ourselves. After we win the vaccine, we will also rush to the United States with a humanitarian spirit, so you don't have to worry too much about the virus spreading endlessly."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that if you don't plan to take action on your own, my first target will be Elizabeth, the virus evolution, and then I will take the turn of other people involved in this incident."

"After all, the virus is the enemy of all mankind. We still have this bottom line, although... you may not exist."

The portal opened in the conference room. Before Colin stepped in, Nick said, "You told me all your future plans. You are too arrogant, Colin."

"Arrogant? I know you very well, but are you sure you really know me?"

He chuckled, ignoring Nick's expression behind him, and stepped in.

Thank you for the 500-point tip from the girl!

Speed up the plot progress.
