Chapter 134 The Adventures of Dupont
At night, in Trenton, inside a standard American community house.
A middle-aged white couple looked at their daughter sleeping peacefully holding a plastic doll in the children's room. They smiled at each other and gently closed the door.
Shortly after the door closed, the plastic doll surrounded by the little girl in the dark room suddenly opened its eyes!
He gently opened the little girl's arms around him, climbed out of the enclosure of the children's bed, jumped off, tiptoed to the spliced foam crawling mat, and turned on the desk lamp.
The light of the desk lamp shines on the crawling mat, where the little girl's drawing papers are scattered messily, full of childlike graffiti.
The plastic doll found a piece of white paper, picked up a crayon, thought for a moment, imitated the little girl's graffiti, and began to smear on the white paper.
…
Early the next morning, the middle-aged white couple left their sleeping daughter with the nanny and drove to work.
In the urban area, there are narrow and dirty lanes, a row of old red-brick houses in the old city, and the inconspicuous signboard says a certain decoration company, which looks very deserted.
The couple carried their briefcases and walked into the small company. They smiled and nodded to the security guard. They walked through the front desk and passage in a familiar way and walked into an ordinary empty room. The husband reached out and pressed an unknown sign on the wall. With an eye-catching button, the wall suddenly cracked open, revealing a metal device with a strong sense of technology. After the couple verified the pupil membrane, fingerprints and voice lines one by one, a large hole opened in the wall next to it, revealing an elevator car.
The couple walked into the elevator, and the elevator door slowly closed.
The elevator sank all the way down to an unknown place before the elevator door opened again.
What comes into view is a bright and spacious rotunda hall, decorated with silver-gray metal and in a technologically modern style. People of all kinds of clothes are walking through it.
The couple walked to a security checkpoint and placed their briefcases on the security gate. The conveyor belt sent the two briefcases to the X-ray machine. They walked through the security gate and raised their arms to accept the inspection from the uniformed personnel. Conduct body searches and metal detection.
When the middle-aged woman was being searched by the security personnel, she accidentally glanced at the perspective view of the briefcase on the computer screen next to the security X-ray machine, and was slightly startled.
Huh?
Why is my daughter’s doll in my bag?
The staff responsible for checking the results of the X-ray machine saw that the outline of this plastic doll was very strange. Why bring a doll to work? There are only a few springs inside, and there are no extra metal objects. Even the sounder and battery have been removed. , didn’t think much and just let it go.
After the briefcase passed through the security X-ray machine, the middle-aged woman walked over and opened it, looking at the plastic doll that had been squeezed and deformed. There was a wrinkled painting covered in front of the doll's body.
The middle-aged woman picked up the painting and took a look at it. She immediately covered her chest and whispered:
"Ohhh...my sweetheart."
She quickly called to her husband, who had passed the security check first and was walking in.
"John, come here, come and see!"
The husband came back, took the painting from his wife and took a look at it. His eyes suddenly softened, he put his arm around his wife's shoulders and said:
"Honey, our daughter is so cute."
"Yeah." The wife nodded repeatedly and said:
"She left her favorite doll to us."
The white paper is covered with crooked and imaginative crayon graffiti. Although it is very abstract, the two adults can still roughly understand it:
The daughter compared the doll to her patron saint. Her parents had a hard time fighting monsters, so the daughter gave the doll to her parents to protect them.
Without doubting his presence, the couple walked into their office with the doll, placed the doll on the workstation, and began their respective busy work.
Although the two of them are only lower-level clerks of SHIELD, they are still busy with their daily work. Ninety percent of the intelligence work in the world is to find clues from various public information. On the contrary, assassinations, instigation, and lurking are all secret services. Work is the small head of intelligence work, even SHIELD, which is responsible for dealing with superpowers and supernatural events, is no exception.
The middle-aged woman was immersed in a vast amount of paperwork and data analysis, and from time to time she had to check video data. By the time the work reached the afternoon, she was already dizzy, so she went to the toilet and grabbed a cup of coffee. In the blink of an eye, But he didn't notice that the doll on the table had disappeared at some point.
Upton walked gently through the corners of the desk and the gaps in various metal filing cabinets.
He poked his head half out of the office door, glanced in the corridor, and determined the location of the surveillance probe.
Seeing a cleaner pushing a cleaning cart past, Upton retracted his head. The moment the cart passed the office door, he jumped into the gap between the plastic basket containing mop and broom cleaner and the trash can. .
The cleaning truck passed through a corridor full of surveillance cameras, and got off the door of the toilet. The plastic doll turned into the women's toilet. After confirming that no one was there, it climbed and jumped on the toilet and handrails in the disabled pit, and stood on the toilet partition. At the top of the board, he took out the paper knife that came from the office from his pocket and began to carefully remove the screws at the four corners of the wire mesh on the ventilation duct.
After the plastic doll got into the ventilation duct, it pulled the wire mesh in and covered it from the inside.
Upton crawled deeper along the ventilation duct.
There are no infrared probes or laser rays in the ventilation ducts like those in other spy movies.
Because the narrow ventilation duct cannot accommodate an adult crawling inside, and the square aluminum pipe suspended by wire cannot bear the weight of an adult, not even a child.
But plastic dolls do.
Upton crawled through a complex system of pipes, searching for a path to greater depths.
Along the way, Upton looked down through the wire mesh and saw some signal jammers and hidden cameras on the ceiling disguised as fire alarm devices.
Upton Dupont recalled his text message communication with Qingshan the night before his departure.
Upton told Fu Qinghai that he was about to sneak into the stronghold. He felt that his mobile phone was too conspicuous and wanted Fu Qinghai to get a micro communication device for him.
But it was rejected by Fu Qinghai.
Qingshan:
"Upton, there must be various signal shielding devices and detection devices in the secret stronghold. It will be useless if you bring it in. In order to prevent the detection of the metal detector, you even need to use the music sounder in your body to prevent it from being detected by the metal detector. Take it out, look at it with your eyes, record it, and tell me the results after it comes out."
Upton now feels that Qingshan was so prescient. Fortunately, he did not bring any electronic equipment in.
Judging from the complex ventilation ducts and these hidden monitoring equipment, this stronghold is not the S.H.I.E.L.D. office the middle-aged couple said at all, and there may be deep secrets inside.
There is a deeper secret that even the clerk couple doesn't know about.
Upton just informed Fu Qinghai in advance of the location he was about to enter, and agreed that if he still didn't contact him after three days, Fu Qinghai would come to rescue him.
Now standing in front of Upton is a new problem.
A rapidly rotating ventilation fan.
The plastic doll stood in front of the ventilation fan, looking at the sharp fan blades spinning rapidly in front of him. The wind blowing in front of him blew his brown hair away.
Upton hesitated.
"I won't be cut into pieces..."
The ghost baby murmured to himself.
Upton didn't know how to get through the ventilation fan. He carefully recalled the plot in the movie "The Ghost Baby". The male protagonist, the ghost baby Chucky, was thrown into the fireplace. Half of his body was burned and his face was melted. , still alive.
"Damn it, let's fight!"
Upton gritted his teeth, took two steps back to run, lowered his head and rushed into the ventilation fan.
"Snap, snap, snap!"
The fan blades hit the plastic doll's body, causing him to scream:
"Ahhhhh!"
Finally, the plastic doll with ragged clothes, horse-gnawed hair, and scratches and cuts all over her body was thrown out from the other side of the ventilation fan.
He lay down in the ventilation duct, took a breath, got up again, and continued walking inside.
He didn't know which floor underground he had reached. When Upton came down from the ventilation duct again, he found that the decoration style here had changed.
The walls, floors, and ceilings were all wrapped in metal steel plates. Soldiers with loaded guns patrolled, and researchers in white coats walked around.
This is where?
Upton was confused.
Upton, who crept out of the toilet, repeated his old trick. When a researcher in a white coat dragged a small cart by, he jumped up quickly and hid under several black boxes piled on the cart. between the gaps.
He huddled in the gap and discovered that these black boxes were printed with the letters logo - A.I.M., and there were also yellow and black three-leaf radiation warning signs.
A.I.M. Pioneer Technology, Upton remembers Qingshan mentioning this company.
Currently it is secretly affiliated with Hydra.
It seems that this is a secret base controlled by Hydra.
Upton thought to himself.
Then he hid here and there, using various experimental supplies and large equipment piled here, getting under the equipment and squeezing from behind the cabinets, avoiding the eyes and ears of the patrol officers, and gradually went deep into the interior of this research institute-like base.
Upton came outside the innermost room. The door sign in the corridor read "Extremely Dangerous, No Entry". There were no soldiers or researchers in this passage. It was quiet and deserted.
What is so dangerous?
Upton was very excited. He felt that he was about to discover Hydra's real killer weapon.
Thinking back to the large equipment you saw outside and the radiation signs everywhere...
Could it be some kind of super nuclear weapon? The kind that can level the world with just one nuclear bomb?
Upton secretly guessed, and he tiptoed, step by step, to the door of the room cautiously.
This was a glass door. Upton lay at the door and looked in.
He suddenly showed a strange expression.
In this room marked "Extremely Dangerous, No Entry".
Upton first saw a corner of the room.
It seems to be a warm and lovely room for a little girl. It is decorated with an exquisite princess bed, curtains, carpets, rocking horses, and various small toys scattered on the floor. Slides, building blocks, small trains, and the little girl’s favorite There are dolls, fairy tale books, etc. The colors of the bed are also pink and goose yellow, and there are cute cartoon patterns printed on them.
this……
Upton was confused.
"Extremely dangerous, no entry allowed"? ?
Is this some kind of irony, meaning that naughty children are more dangerous than nuclear bombs?
Is Hydra so humorous?
Upton couldn't help but be curious, moved his body, changed his angle and looked further into the room.
Then, Upton Dupont swore that he saw a scene he would never forget—
A man with a ferocious red skull, wearing a loose printed nightgown, was lying on the bed, holding a fairy tale book in his hand, and with a gentle and kind face, he was writing to a little black-haired girl lying next to him. Tell bedtime stories.
Red Skull is still alive? !
That was the first thing that shocked Upton.
He clearly remembered that Fu Qinghai told him that the Red Skull did not appear in the Hydra Supreme Council and that the current leader of Hydra was Baron Strucker.
Baron Strucker has successfully resurrected the Red Skull?
Then why doesn't the Red Skull go out and take charge of the overall situation?
Hydra is now in a state of turmoil, and people are in panic. Even high-level executives such as Mrs. Viper are thinking of getting off the ship and disbanding. The Red Skull is the founder of modern Hydra and the lifelong enemy of Captain America. With his prestige, he can definitely Maintain the crumbling Hydra and stabilize the entire situation.
Why is he hiding here?
Also, can anyone tell me who the little black-haired girl next to me is?
This was the second thing that shocked Upton.
Is this the Red Skull's daughter?
Never heard that Red Skull has a daughter?
Red Skull, one of the most evil people in the Marvel universe, an anti-social and anti-human super villain, a pure war criminal who has committed numerous crimes and caused many massacres...
Telling a little girl a bedtime story with a loving look on your face?
And, why is the Red Skull’s daughter not Little Red Skull?
Upton had literally ten thousand things to complain about in his heart, and his outlook on life was about to be refreshed.
inside the room.
The warm yellow desk lamp was lit, and the Red Skull John Schmidt read softly:
"——In this way, Hydra became the most powerful terrorist organization in the world, and the Red Skull legitimately became their leader. From then on, they lived happily together until forever."
After finishing speaking, he closed the storybook in his hand.
The little girl held an octopus-headed rag doll in her left hand, and held the Red Skull's neck in her right hand, saying coquettishly:
"Say it again, say it again, please!"
Suddenly, the little girl stopped acting coquettishly, pointed to the door of the room, and said:
"Dad, there's a living plastic doll there."
"Um?"
The Red Skull looked up and saw nothing outside the glass door.
"Okay, honey, there are no living plastic dolls in this world. If you want, you can make one for yourself."
Red Skull didn't think much, but continued:
"Then let's tell the story of what happened next..."
Outside the door of the room, Upton was leaning against the wall, his face frightened, his small chest rising and falling, and he was breathing heavily.
What a risk, I almost got discovered.
She can actually sense my presence, that little girl is not simple!
I need to inform Qingshan immediately.
