Chapter 161: Lupin III, a level 7 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
3/5 weekly chapter, enjoy.
At the end of the passage is a door, which has been separated from the pipes that discharge the sewage; it was more like the outlet of the sewer network.
Pushing the door open, one finds a small circular space, and a long red ladder cos into view.
Blake climbed up first, followed by Mathison and Pala.
Charlie was lying on Mathison’s shoulders.
After climbing out of the wellhead, their eyes suddenly opened up to a vast space, and the surrounding space was no longer as narrow as in the sewer.
But this space wasn’t on the surface.
“Is this a subway tunnel?”
Mathison asked after looking around.
There was no light source here. One can’t even see their own hand! Even with Mathison’s sharp eyesight, he can barely see objects at night.
The rail in the center of the tunnel naturally ca to Mathison’s line of sight.
“Follow .”
Blake turned on the flashlight and guided Mathison’s group to move forward.
“Another two minutes walk will bring us to one of our strongholds.”
Mathison very keenly caught the statent “one of our strongholds,” which ans that they have many strongholds in the underground network of Gotham City.
Sure enough, after two minutes, Blake stopped and pointed the flashlight at a door beside the tunnel.
“Wait a mont.”
Blake first stopped Mathison and Pala, then knocked on the door himself.
“Who?”
A man’s voice ca from behind the door. Mathison heard it before; it was Aaron Cash’s voice.
“It’s , John Blake.”
“Rookie, you’re back from your inspection tour! How’s the situation outside…”
As soon as Aaron heard Blake’s voice, he imdiately opened the door and asked him.
However, when he saw Mathison and Pala, his expression suddenly changed.
“Who are they?”
“Lupin III and Fujiko Mine, they claim to be agents sent by S.H.I.E.L.D. to investigate Bane.”
Blake replied.
“They want to et the director and get so information.”
At this ti, Mathison and Pala took out their forged docunts and waved them around.
“S.H.I.E.L.D.?”
Old Sheriff Aaron is obviously not as ignorant as Blake, who has been interning for less than a year. He had heard of S.H.I.E.L.D. a long ti ago.
“Looking at their appearance, they really don’t look Arican. If they are not Bane’s subordinates, they can only be people from S.H.I.E.L.D., co in.”
Aaron opened the door completely and let Mathison and others walk in.
Then locked the door tightly.
After Mathison got past the door, he found that there was a long circular tunnel inside, which had been abandoned for a long ti and was now used as a corridor.
The group rushed deeper into the corridor.
“Sir, do you know the departnt of S.H.I.E.L.D.?”
Blake asked curiously behind Aaron.
“Not really, I just heard about it.”
Aaron told the truth.
“They have mastered many technologies that are beyond the tis, but because they are a secret international organization, they have no law enforcent power in various countries, so they often intervene in various supernatural events as local police officers in various countries.”
“For example, ICPO, FBI, MI6… they only co up with their own credentials in special events of great impact.”
“Just like now, the FBI or the CIA group don’t have the ability to hide from Bane and infiltrate Gotham at all.”
“Jim knows more about S.H.I.E.L.D. than I do.”
Aaron implicitly released a ssage.
That is, Gordon has a certain understanding of S.H.I.E.L.D. If Mathison and his partner are only pretending, it would be easy for Gordon to see through them.
Mathison understood what Aaron ant, but it wasn’t a problem for him.
After a while, the group of people got past the corridor and reached another large space.
This large space is connected to many abandoned pipes. It used to be a gathering place for holess people, but now, it is the temporary headquarters of the GCPD.
Aaron brought Mathison’s group to where Gordon was.
Mathison was overwheld with emotion when he saw Gordon, who he hadn’t seen in months.
Gordon’s current condition was very bad.
With professional treatnt, the gunshot wound he received before should no longer affect his normal movents.
But many days of unhealthy eating made Gordon’s recovery questionable.
His face was morbidly pale and weak.
Not to ntion that he cannot defeat any enemy in such a state… hell if he can even walk.
“Who are they?”
Gordon looked at Mathison and Pala and asked breathlessly.
“They claim to be agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”
Aaron only said this sentence, which made Gordon’s pupils shrink.
“S.H.I.E.L.D., I once worked with one of your agents, and he left a deep impression on . I rember his na is… Phil Kelson, do you know him?”
Gordon laughed and asked the two kindly.
Mathison smirked inwardly, Gordon’s temptation seed to induce the other party by deliberately saying the wrong na, but in fact, it was not the case at all.
Because the whole story of how S.H.I.E.L.D. and Gordon cooperated in handling the case was clear!
The one who cooperated with Gordon was not Coulson at all, but another agent!
“It’s Phil Coulson, Director Gordon. It seems that you’re not as impressed as you thought.”
“Oh, yes, that’s probably my mory, but I still rember…”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Gordon, you may have misrembered more than that.”
Mathison interrupted Gordon.
“I have read the report of the incident in Bahrain. The agent with you at that ti was not Coulson, but linda May. She also has a title in S.H.I.E.L.D.: The Cavalry’.”
“May and Coulson are good friends, and she should have told you Coulson’s na.”
Hearing this, Gordon was stunned, because what Mathison said was correct.
It is impossible to know this information if he wasn’t a mber of S.H.I.E.L.D.
As for how Mathison knew, thanks to Rising Tide and Skye.
The Rising Tide Organization was able to obtain detailed information on the Bahrain Island incident, which is really a big thing.
At that ti, Gotham was in the second year of the Dent Act, and all the criminals that should have been caught were caught, and a short-term peace ca.
Then the Gotham City Council did an extrely foolish thing. They added the Joker’s case in the police academy textbook.
Of course, Gordon tried to stop them in every possible way, but he was ordered to take a six-month vacation, and he was also forced to travel at public expense.
In short, they didn’t let Gordon undermine the New Deal.
At that ti, Gordon had nothing to do. In any case, there were basically no murders in Gotham. He really had nothing to do, so he was sent on a public trip.
So, Gordon deliberately went to the extrely remote island of Bahrain, and the cost of sailing alone cost a lot of public funds…
Finally, predictably, he collided with the S.H.I.E.L.D. unit and was involved in a bizarre incident.
“Sorry, I was only testing you just now. I hope you understand our current situation.”
Gordon reached out to Mathison with an apologetic face.
“It’s okay, I would have done the sa.”
Mathison shook Gordon’s hand conventionally.
“Let introduce myself formally, I’m Jim Gordon, Chief of the Gotham Police Departnt.”
“I’m Lupin III, a level 7 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. This is my assistant Fujiko Mine.”
“Now, it’s ti for us to get down to business.”
Mathison looked solemn.
“About where Bane might have hidden the nuke ……”
