After Locke stepped out of the elevator, he went straight to the conference room of Group One, then pushed open the door and went inside.

into the eye.

Commander Victoria Hand of S.H.I.E.L.D. in New York.

Sitting next to Victoria Hand was a woman she didn't recognize, but whose demeanor was clearly different from that of an ordinary S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.

There was also an old acquaintance of his in the conference room:

"Natasha."

Locke was somewhat surprised to see Natasha also in the conference room. He pulled out the head chair and sat down, asking curiously, "When did you get back?"

Natasha smiled. "This morning."

Locke nodded, then turned his gaze to the woman sitting next to Commander Victoria Hand.

"Who is this?"

Sharon Carter.

The female agent met Locke's gaze and introduced herself.

Locke raised an eyebrow upon hearing the name.

"Carter, is that Peggy Carter...?"

"It's just a coincidence."

"All right."

Locke was certain that Sharon Carter was Peggy Carter's niece.

However, since the other party was unwilling to admit it, he had no interest in revealing the secret.

The important matter is the priority.

Just right.

Debbie came in from outside carrying a stack of documents and handed them to Locke.

Locke took the document, glanced at it, and after confirming that there were no problems with the contents, he placed the document on the conference table and pushed it to Commander Victoria Hand: "Commander Hand, after signing, the Vampire Building is yours. You can send people to take over the Vampire Building at any time."

This was also one of the agreements agreed upon with Commander Maria Hill at the time. The Sentinel Service had the opportunity to expand its authority, while all the profits from the Vampire Tower would go to Maria Hill.

If you win, I win too; that's called a win-win situation.

Only Nick Fury was injured.

Commander Victoria Hand did not speak, but pressed the document that was sliding towards her, opened it, and carefully examined its contents.

after awhile.

Commander Victoria Hand picked up a pen from the table, signed her name on a document, and then pushed it back to Locke.

Locke reached out and pressed the document down, glanced at the signature, smiled slightly, handed the document to Debbie beside him, and then looked at Commander Victoria Hand.

"The Vampire Mansion is yours now."

"Team Leader Underwood."

Commander Victoria Hand, seeing Locke seemingly about to leave after saying that, quickly said, "That's not why I came here today."

Locke, who was about to get up, sat down again upon hearing this and looked at Commander Victoria Hand with curiosity.

That is...

Washington, D.C.

"oh."

Locke understood immediately, then remained silent, his gaze once again falling on Sharon Carter, whose last name was Carter, but who claimed to have no connection whatsoever with Peggy Carter.

Victoria Hand caught Locke's gaze.

"Sharon is the agent I trust most."

"Understood."

With Victoria Hand's endorsement, Locke smiled and nodded, then crossed his hands on the table.

"What does Commander Hand want to know?"

Everything about that alien.

Victoria Hand glanced at Debbie first, then looked at Locke and said in a deep voice, "This matter is very serious."

If this matter is not handled properly, the entire SHIELD could potentially collapse as a result.

After all, Nick Fury is also in contact with aliens.

Locke nodded at first, acknowledging Commander Victoria Hand's serious attitude towards the matter, but then smiled slightly: "But, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish, isn't that right?"

Only in stormy weather can you catch big fish.

Nick Fury should step down.

For everyone's benefit.

It seems highly inappropriate for someone suffering from severe paranoia to serve as the director of a secret law enforcement agency under one of the world's five major superpowers.

The most important thing.

If Nick Fury were still the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., it would be extremely disadvantageous for Locke.

After all, he and Nick Fury had already become enemies.

Even if Locke were more magnanimous, he would let the matter rest.

But will Nick Fury just let it go?

will not.

If Nick Fury were still in office, he would definitely spend a lot of time watching him.

Locke didn't have that much time to play house with Nick Fury.

He is very busy.

Busy trying to become a god.

and so--

one move.

He only made one move!

Locke smiled at Commander Victoria Hand: "When I sent the data to Natasha, I told her that our Director Andrew also already had this video file, but you still have a chance before our director submits it."

We'll either have to wait for Chief Andrew to detonate this bomb.

Either handle the matter internally before it is reported to higher authorities.

Locke didn't care.

Injustice has its head, and debt has its owner.

His personality isn't that of an overpowered, arrogant hero; he only targets Nick Fury.

That's it.

As for whether Nick Fury will bear the blame alone in this process, or whether it will lead to the disintegration of the entire S.H.I.E.L.D., that is not his problem.

The real issue is now concerning Victoria Hand, the commander of S.H.I.E.L.D. in New York, and Maria Hill, the commander of S.H.I.E.L.D. in Washington.

He was only responsible for starting the fire; he didn't care how the fire was extinguished.

Victoria Hand listened to Locke's statement and looked at the expression on his face, and breathed a sigh of relief.

She came here this time to personally confirm Locke's attitude towards releasing such a thunderbolt.

Let's see if Locke wants Nick Fury or the entire S.H.I.E.L.D.

The former is easier to deal with.

As Locke said, Nick Fury's removal from office was not only good for Locke, but also for them.

Well known.

After a Black Nick Fury came to power, the connection between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the extraordinary world became increasingly strained.

It's all Nick Fury's fault.

obviously.

People in the extraordinary world don't buy into political correctness at all.

and so.

Nick Fury should just step down.

but...-

Commander Victoria Hand thought to herself as she looked back at Locke: "What does the Sentinel Special Operations Bureau want?"

Locke smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"That's none of our business, Commander Hand."

"Um?"

"Washington matters are for Washington to handle. This is New York. Our business is over. What do you say, Commander Hand?"

"...I agree."

Victoria Hand paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement with Locke's statement.

"That's right."

Seeing Commander Hand nod, Locke raised an eyebrow and looked at Debbie beside him: "Have people from Washington come?"

Debbie replied, "They just arrived. Jack is still in the medical examiner's office, saying he'll only let them leave with the body if you call him personally."

Locke nodded, then looked at Commander Victoria Hand: "The Washington Sentinel agents are here. They will take the bodies back to Washington. Of course, if Commander Hand could provide an SHIELD agent to escort them, that would be even better."

Victoria Hand's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"That's great, thank you."

"No need. I have a lot of opinions about Nick Fury, that's undeniable, but I have no opinions about Commander Hand or Commander Hill."

Locke expressed his goodwill to Commander Hand and Commander Hill, who was not present today.

soon.

Debbie led Commander Hand, along with Natasha and Sharon Carter, out of the conference room.

About ten minutes later.

Debbie returned to the conference room.

Locke, who was sitting in the head seat and had not left, opened his eyes as he sensed that the blood pool seemed to have grown larger.

Who's going to Washington, D.C.?

"That female agent named Sharon Carter."

Debbie replied, then asked with some curiosity, "Boss, she's really not related to Peggy Carter?"

Locke laughed, "If she says no, then no. If I'm not mistaken, she should be Peggy Carter's niece."

Debbie's eyes lit up, then she asked curiously again, "Peggy Carter's niece, shouldn't she be with S.H.I.E.L.D. in Washington? How did she end up in New York?"

Locke shrugged. "Mind your own business."

Debbie said "Oh," thought for a moment, looked at Locke, and hesitated before speaking.

Seeing this, Locke leaned back in his chair, rested his chin on his hand, and looked at Debbie: "Any more questions?"

Debbie nodded, looked at Locke, and after organizing her thoughts, said, "Boss, haven't we always been thinking about expanding our authority? If this matter is exposed, it's possible that SHIELD will be dismantled. Why—"

Locke smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"Don't you understand?"

"Yes, I don't understand."

"It's simple, because this won't bring down S.H.I.E.L.D., and if we don't do anything, Nick Fury might not even be in trouble."

"...That can't be right."

Debbie stared wide-eyed, seemingly surprised by the answer.

"We have evidence that Nick Fury colluded with aliens who were trying to invade Earth."

"You said yourself that they are aliens."

Debbie frowned as she looked at Locke's ambiguous smile, then seemed to realize something.

"Boss, what do you mean—"

"Aliens are Nick Fury's dirt, and aliens are also Nick Fury's shield."

"If no one else gets involved, even if we expose this, Nick Fury will have an explanation."

"He could easily claim that he himself discovered it not long ago, and that the aliens who tried to invade Earth were just isolated cases."

"Then he pulled out some Skrull advanced technology. What do you think Washington will say about that?"

"At worst, Nick Fury will get a scolding, and then things will go back to normal."

"remember."

"Washington D.C. is not New York City; people in Washington D.C. only ever talk about interests."

"As for the overall situation?"

What is meant by "the big picture"?

"Acquiring alien black technology caused the stock prices of the companies backed by their financial backers to soar."

"That's their overall strategy!"

"......"
