He's in Marvel, working behind the scenes.

"A Man in Marvel, the Mastermind Behind the Scenes" by: My Surname is Dad, My Fate is Tyrant

Gu Qing transmigrated to the Marvel universe and activated the Dimensional Doll System, which allowed him to obtain powerful dolls from other worlds.

At the start, summon Kibutsuji Muzan and the Twelve Demon Moons.

But this is only the beginning.

Witch Cult, Vongola Family, Espada, Great Tomb of Nazarick, Akatsuki, Godzilla, Land of Light...

It's unclear when exactly, but one after another, behind-the-scenes forces have emerged in the Marvel universe.

The world is dominated by movies, with comics playing a secondary role.

Chapter 1 Have you ever heard of "ghosts"?

Dark and deep, silent...

Walking in such a place, Fuyutsuki Daigo felt no trepidation whatsoever, but rather a great sense of calm, his mind replaying the task the bureau chief had given him.

Two months ago, homicides occurred frequently in various areas of New York.

All the victims exhibited characteristics of being bitten or even eaten by sharp teeth.

This is incredible.

The crime scenes were all in bustling cities far from the wild, and no ferocious animals were missing from nearby zoos. It's hard to imagine that ferocious animals would dare to invade human territory and hunt so brazenly.

Ultimately, neither the police nor the FBI investigators found anything.

This caught the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D.

They investigated using high-tech equipment and criminal investigation methods not available to regular departments, but in the end... they found nothing.

Fury believed that this matter was not simple, and considering the impact of the cannibalism case on society, he sent out his most trusted subordinate, "Coulson"!

Coulson initially didn't pay much attention.

S.H.I.E.L.D. is a department specifically established to deal with supernatural events. He has already handled many supernatural events, and this one will just be one of the many cases he has solved as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

but.

Whether it was criminal investigation methods far exceeding the current world standards, or high-tech items surpassing the current world standards... he investigated for two weeks but found not a single clue.

During this process, the frequency of cases increased, causing a huge social impact.

Under pressure from public opinion, various departments and S.H.I.E.L.D. have intensified their investigation efforts.

But still, there was no result.

When Coulson couldn't think of a solution, he tried asking an old friend.

They were supposed to be old friends, but in reality, they had only done business together twice.

He is an Asian youth in his early twenties whose identity is a mystery. He runs a jack-of-all-trades shop in Hell's Kitchen, where he takes money and does things.

but.

Although he was paid to do things, he was very principled.

Although not a law-abiding, exemplary citizen, he is someone who has his own judgment of good and evil, right and wrong, and whose code of conduct is at a moral standard.

Coulson had noticed him during an incident and, with his help, resolved it perfectly.

Afterwards, they collaborated again and resolved the issue perfectly once more.

This is the third time.

Frankly, if he could, Coulson would never want to work with this guy.

Because he is too mysterious.

I don't know where he came from, what his family background is, or what his purpose is.

Even using the authority of the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., they could only find that the man had opened a convenience store in Manhattan a year ago.

The rest could not be found at all, as if they appeared out of thin air.

Working with someone like that always gave Coulson a feeling that the other person was plotting something behind the scenes, and he was very uneasy.

Perhaps secret agents are just inherently suspicious!

As I was lost in thought, a ray of light appeared in my field of vision.

Coulson stopped and looked at the small shop on the windowsill, which was only two meters wide. The sign next to it read "Yorozuya" (Everything Shop) in Chinese characters, with English text below.

So, did he come from the Xia Kingdom?

Coulson guessed from the Chinese characters on the signboard.

"Yo, Coulson!"

A young man leaned out of the window, a cigarette dangling from his lips, and smiled at him.

Coulson turned around casually, a friendly smile on his face, and greeted, "Good evening, Mr. Gu Qing!"

"Not good at all."

The young man, referred to as "Gu Qing," had a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth, seemingly quite pleased.

"If business is good enough, nobody likes to stay up until midnight every day. I'm working my hardest to make a living!"

"Then why not work for S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Coulson smiled and said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. may not be a particularly high-paying job, but it's definitely more lucrative than what you're doing here."

"That's hard to say!"

Ok?

Coulson glanced at the young man with surprise, and seeing that he maintained a confident smile, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Does Mr. Gu Qing have any different opinions?"

"Ok!"

Gu Qing took a light drag of his cigarette, slowly exhaled, and said, "Although my place is remote, sparsely populated, and I'm easily mistaken for a swindler, a big order once in a while is enough for me to live a carefree life in high society for a year or two."

Ok?

Coulson's heart skipped a beat, but he forced a smile, looking as if he couldn't believe it. "Don't joke around. Your industry, which clearly looks like a scam, would actually have someone want to do big business with you?"

"Of course!"

Gu Qing stuffed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and said contentedly, "You've just delivered a big business opportunity to me, haven't you?"

Coulson paused for a moment, then resumed his smile. "Does Mr. Gu Qing know why I've come?"

"The cannibalism case that's been making headlines in the media lately!"

"So, Mr. Gu Qing knows the inside story?"

"It's not really inside information, I just happen to know some news."

With that, Gu Qing took out a card reader and said, "Two hundred thousand US dollars, and the intelligence is yours."

"Two hundred thousand!?" Coulson stared at him in astonishment, saying incredulously, "Are you out of your mind? What kind of information is worth that much?"

"If it's not worth it, you can have the bank freeze my account!" Gu Qing said nonchalantly. "We've cooperated twice before, don't we even have that much trust?"

"We know nothing about Mr. Gu Qing, if..."

"If you don't believe me, then go ahead!"

Gu Qing stretched her right hand out of the alley, adopting an attitude of "take it or leave it."

Coulson stared intently at him.

After a moment, he relented and said, "Wait a moment, I need to apply for funding from above."

"random!"

Gu Qingman picked up a handful of sunflower seeds from the shelf and started cracking them casually.

Seeing this, Coulson took a deep breath, then took out his phone and dialed Fury.

"...That's the situation."

After Coulson explained the situation, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before a deep voice came through.

"We can give him 200,000, but if the information isn't worth that much, we'll have the bank freeze his account."

"learn."

"Also, if possible, we could try to find out his source of information!"

"understand!"

After Coulson finished speaking, the other end of the phone hung up.

He looked up at the young man who was eating sunflower seeds and watching a variety show, seemingly oblivious to everything, and took a deep breath.

"The higher-ups have agreed."

Coulson went to the window, took out his bank card, entered the PIN on the card reader, and said, "Now you can tell me the details!"

"...Yes, the money has arrived."

After seeing the payment confirmation message, Gu Qing smiled kindly. "Coulson, have you ever heard of ghosts?"

Chapter Two: Threat

"……ghost?"

Coulson paused for a moment before realizing what he meant, his eyes widening as he said, "Are you suggesting that the cannibalism cases that have been happening lately are the work of ghosts?"

"Ok!"

After Gu Qing finished speaking, noticing that Coulson's blood pressure was rising, she quickly added, "Of course, they're different from the ghosts and monsters in movies and novels; they're just humanoid creatures called 'ghosts.'"

Upon hearing this, Coulson's emotions calmed down slightly.

Although the idea of ​​a humanoid being called a "ghost" sounds far-fetched, at least it doesn't involve any metaphysical nonsense to fool people.
