Chapter 70 - A Soldier Lost to the River of History (2/4)

"Shit!"

Tao Wen's heart clenched, and he sprinted towards the corner. Quicksilver was already gone; he couldn't let Wanda disappear too.

"Help! Let go of me!"

Wanda struggled violently, but the black-clad figures holding her possessed incredible strength, making it impossible for her to break free. She was dragged into a black business van, desperately calling for help, but there wasn't a soul in sight. She couldn't help but regret not having let Tao Wen walk her home earlier.

"You're asking for it!"

Tao Wen lunged forward, like a charging tiger, and with the van just starting to move, he threw a punch at the vehicle.

"Damn it!"

Under his full-force blow, he only left a shallow imprint on the van, which moved forward a fraction.

This couldn't help but make him shout, as it was clear this vehicle was specially made, invulnerable to his attacks.

Boom! Boom!

The business vehicle roared, speeding away frantically into the distance.

"Damn it!"

Tao Wen wanted to unleash a storm and give chase, but only then did he remember that he'd already used it during the day, and it was still cooling down.

He wasn't good at running anyway. The Purge effect was okay for chasing people, but it was useless against high-powered vehicles.

After chasing for a while, the vehicle disappeared from sight.

"Forget it, let them take them!"

Tao Wen's eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness. He knew very well that the disappearance of Quicksilver and Wanda was due to Hydra's capture. It was their fate, the path to their awakening.

At that moment, he finally remembered what the siblings had been looking for him for: to use him to leverage S.H.I.E.L.D. to help them become super heroes. But they were unaware that they already possessed the necessary conditions themselves.

S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't have such capabilities. Otherwise, Fury would have become a super hero long ago, instead of desperately searching for super heroes to recruit.

Fortunately, I left a tracker on Wanda. When they gain their abilities, I can still find them and farm some fragments.

Tao Wen looked deeply at the disappearing vehicle, turned around, and headed towards the dormitory. On the way, he bought a burger and a large soda, which served as his dinner.

Inside a cafe outside the Queen's Bar.

Natasha, wearing heavy makeup, gently swirled a silver spoon, allowing the aroma of coffee to fill the private room.

She lazily stretched, perfectly outlining her figure and causing her womanly allure to explode. Unfortunately, she was alone in the room.

Otherwise, a group of animals would have their eyes pop out.

Her gaze, however, remained fixed on the phone beside her, a hint of sorrow mingling with her alluring expression.

Ding!

After a few seconds of staring, the phone connected.

"You finally answer! Where have you been? Why did you just leave me here?"

Natasha said, clearly displeased.

"On a mission? What's wrong?"

A stern male voice came from the other end, laced with confusion.

"What? It wasn't you?"

Natasha, who had been as lazy as a cat, instantly transformed into a tigress. Her beautiful eyes radiated fury. She hadn't expected to be played like this, not after all her cunning.

"What's going on? Are you sure you have the right person? What did you do with him?"

Hawkeye's voice immediately became tense, but all he got in response was Natasha cutting off the comms.

"Damn it!"

At that moment, a bullet whizzed past. He had to roll to avoid it, simultaneously smashing his fist against the wall and roaring in anger. Turning around, he fired an arrow, sending his attacker to hell, but was then surrounded by more people.

"Don't let me find out who you are!"

Flames of fury blazed in Natasha's eyes as she stormed out of the private room. She needed to get the recording and find out who was responsible.

For this party, she had specifically instructed the bar manager not to allow anyone to dress up as Hawkeye. It was because of this that she had boldly made her move.

It was all to surprise Hawkeye, but it ended up like this.

Tao Wen returned to his dorm and went to bed early after washing up.

The next day, early in the morning.

The third day was just like the others. He arrived at the office and once again settled into his routine of office work. The unique aroma of freshly ground coffee wafted through the area.

"Tao, your coffee smells amazing. Can I have a cup?"

After grinding the coffee and brewing it, Coulson walked into the office and said to Tao Wen with a smile.

"Come on, spill it. What brings you here? You don't usually come to my office just for coffee."

Tao Wen brewed another cup of coffee and asked Coulson. In his memory, Coulson was a busy man who worked overtime every day. That small tuft of hair on his forehead was a mark left by working too much overtime.

"Why couldn't I come, Tao? Yesterday, after I got home, I did a hundred squats, a hundred push-ups, a hundred sit-ups, and ran ten kilometers. I feel incredibly strong now, really, thank you for sharing that."

Coulson said excitedly, "I even posted it on Twitter and got a lot of positive feedback."

"Really?"

Tao Wen's eyelids twitched. He'd just been talking off the cuff, but he hadn't expected Coulson to actually believe him. However, his gaze fell on Coulson's sparse hair, and he said, "I believe in you. You'll succeed one day."

"Really? You think so too?"

Coulson said excitedly.

"Of course, you have a solid foundation."

Tao Wen said with a smile, his gaze still fixed on Coulson's thinning hair. This wasn't just a solid foundation, it was overflowing!

"I hope your words come true. This coffee is really good, almost as good as Director Fury's."

Coulson praised.

"Right, I almost forgot what I came here for."

Coulson tossed a file onto Tao Wen's desk.

"What is it?"

Tao Wen looked at the file on the desk in surprise. As he looked, he saw the words 'Top Secret' printed on it.

This was the first time he'd seen a physical file from S.H.I.E.L.D.. This kind of document was absolutely crucial.

Even with a certain level of clearance, he might not have been able to get it.

He couldn't help but start reading it.

The documents were quite old, yellowed paper from decades ago. Though well-preserved, Tao Wen didn't dare to handle them roughly, fearing he'd turn them into dust. That would be a crime.

"These are documents from World War II?"

After some searching, Tao Wen realized that this was indeed the history of the conflict between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra. He already knew this history, so there was no need to look further.

"Yes, it also contains information about our current mission."

Coulson said.

"Our mission is to find a Hydra base?"

Tao Wen couldn't help but ask.

"Of course not. Hydra has already been eliminated by us. And, Tao, don't be so tense. This time, our mission is actually very simple, even very easy. We don't even need to do anything ourselves."

Coulson said with a smile.

At the same time, he grabbed the dried fruit from Tao Wen's desk and handed it to him.

"Easy? We don't need to do anything. What kind of mission is this? Just for show?"

Tao Wen asked in confusion, feeling utterly baffled.

"Yes and no. We absolutely don't need to lift a finger. Our mission is to find someone, or rather, a soldier lost to the annals of history."

Coulson said excitedly.
