A Certain Marvel Super Player

Seventy-eight, the prelude before the storm

"Locke Broughton was raised in a community home in Galveston until he was three years old."

"From three to seven years old, there are eight foster families wanting to adopt."

"But they were all turned down."

"reason?"

"Texas agents sent in information and one of the foster homes said there was something weird about Rock Broughton."

"eccentric?"

"right."

In the brightly lit S.H.I.E.L.D. Operations Command Center, the Washington Sanfei Decoration and the Texas S.H.I.E.L.D. branch were all on the big screen, and one piece of news after another was quickly summarized.

The supervisor of the Texas branch nodded: "Yes, weird. According to the foster family, Rock Broughton is too precocious and has many behaviors that are difficult to understand."

Nick Fury's one eye flashed.

"specific."

"In the middle of the night, they found Locke Broughton weeding in the garden."

"weeding?"

"Yes, and there are many more, such as mopping the floor and washing dishes..."

The Texas supervisor rubbed his eyebrows: "If such behavior is done by a seven or eight-year-old child, then it is nothing, but the key point is that this is a four-year-old child, and he often stays up in the middle of the night. So, they put Rock Broughton back into the institution."

In fact, Locke cannot be blamed for this.

At four or five years old, what kind of tasks can he do? As for getting up in the middle of the night to complete tasks, Locke doesn't want to do it, but who told his family to keep an eye on him during the day and not let him do it?

The same is true for several other foster families.

"There was no adoption of Locke until he was eight years old."

"so poor."

"Um?"

After hearing this, Nick Fury's eyes flickered and fell on a young female agent. He opened his mouth, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything.

This is the SHIELD combat command center in New York, not his headquarters in Washington.

Commander Victoria Hand also took a look at the female agent she recruited.

The female agent blinked.

Did he say something wrong?

It was very pitiful to begin with. He was abandoned by eight foster families, and then after he turned eight years old, no foster family was willing to adopt him?

Isn't this pitiful?

The female agent looked at her colleague next to her, who also nodded, agreeing with her point of view.

Ms. Victoria Hand shook her head helplessly and signaled them to stop talking. The poor little guy they were talking about was actually competing with SHIELD.

"As for Locke's relationships and grades in school..."

The Texas supervisor continued: "Very good, no, it can't be described as very good, but it can be said to be very good. In fact, when he was twelve years old, Midtown University invited Locke. Yes, but was rejected.”

"very good?"

"Yes."

The Texas supervisor nodded: "As for his social interactions, there are very few. Whether it is elementary school or junior high school, we have investigated several people, and they said that Rock Broughton is also a very weird person."

Whether it is elementary school or junior high school, the information given by these students is just one sentence, weird and unsociable.

But very strange.

Such eccentricity and unsociability did not make Locke a vulnerable group in the school.

"He has no friends."

"Yes, I don't have a single close friend."

The director of Texas nodded and reported the situation: "But his academic performance is very good, and the school is willing to keep him to use it to obtain education funds from Texas, but..."

"But what?"

"Although Locke didn't fit in with the crowd in school, he was a well-known young cowboy in Galveston."

"..."

"Wow."

"Quite handsome."

"Where's the Texas cowboy?"

Reports about Locke's performance in the Cowboys competition appeared on the big screen, and there was even a photo of Locke participating in the Hot Dog King Contest.

Locke in the report is smiling. Although he was born an orphan, he looks like a sunny boy with a bright smile.

What antisocial personality?

Not at all.

What Nick Fury wants to see is not evidence that Locke is sunny, but evidence that Locke is an antisocial personality: "In addition to these, there are others, such as liking to torture and kill small animals. Is there any evidence of him?" Have his classmates or people who know him seen him?"

Sociopaths all have one obvious thing in common.

That is not respecting life.

From disrespecting the lives of small animals at the beginning, to killing small animals, and then gradually escalated.

pity.

The Texas director shook his head: "Sorry, Director, we have reviewed these messages three times and found the staff of the welfare home and the school staff. Rock Broughton's weirdness and unsociability are just peers." He looks weird and unsociable. In the orphanage, Locke Broughton is always the hardest-working and the most worry-free one. In the school, except for being unsociable, he abides by every school rule. In the local cowboy scene, sorry, we didn’t get to ask.”

Nick Fury's eyes lit up: "Why?"

The Texas supervisor gave a wry smile: "Director, there are very few cowboys in Texas now. Cowboys are very clumsy. Even when one of our agents pretended to inquire, he was almost shot by those cowboys with explosive tempers. .”

Nick Fury: "..."

Not all cowboys can be called cowboys.

The real Texas cowboys are extremely exclusive. Those so-called professional cowboy clubs and cowboy platforms that have been established are only cowboys certified by capital.

Galveston is a small city, and the cowboys all know each other. If an unknown guy dresses like a cowboy and sneaks in among them, he can inquire about their own people?

is it possible?

Nick Fury shook his head: "So, what about that peerless assassin? Do you know the trajectory of his activities in Texas in the past two years? Is there any overlap with Locke?"

"No!"

"What?"

Nick Fury raised his eyebrows and said: "How could it be possible? The place where the peerless assassin first appeared was Galveston!"

Director Texas nodded: "Yes, from this point of view, there is indeed overlap, but we have absolutely no evidence that Locke and the Wushuang Assassin know each other."

Nick Fury said solemnly: "Locke has his own room in Galveston?"

"Yes."

"Have you checked?"

"Can't get in."

"..."

The Texas supervisor shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Unless there is a search warrant from the court, the farm refuses our entry, and no court in Galveston is willing to sign a search warrant."

"……Why?"

"When Rock Broughton was twelve years old, he helped Galveston become the number one young cowboy in Texas. No judge is willing to take the risk of being accused by countless cowboys without any evidence. Signed this search warrant.”

"..."

Nick Fury was silent.

Also silent were the Gwen family who rushed to New Amsterdam Hospital after receiving the news.

"Oh, God!"

Gwen stood at the window, watching Locke, who had taken off his coat inside, revealing bruises all over his body, covering his mouth in disbelief: "How dare they..."

George was also silent next to him.

No wonder why Locke had to go back with them just now.

If he had stopped him forcefully at that time, my dear, the FBI could have pushed and pushed and directly shirk responsibility. This injury was not caused by them at all.

"Gosh."

Helen couldn't help but put her hand against her mouth and exclaimed: "Poor child."

In the examination room.

The doctor who was responsible for assessing Locke's injuries also looked at Locke's bruised body with some anguish, and said, "Doesn't it hurt?"

Locke reluctantly smiled: "It will only hurt if they cannot be made to pay the price they deserve!"

nonsense.

Of course it hurts.

Locke temporarily shut down his tenacity talent, and this injury was a real injury, and even a few ribs were shortened.

no way.

How can it be possible if you want a big scene without any effort?

Although it is possible to create a big scene without injuring oneself, there is a one percent chance that the Federation will die to protect SHIELD.

It doesn't matter.

The more you give, the more you gain.

For bonus rewards!

Locke felt that he could hold on. Besides, as soon as the identification results came out and the extraordinary tenacity talent was activated, he would be able to recover in just a few hours instead of overnight.

What?

Not scientific.

It is normal for some people to recover at an unusually fast speed. Moreover, at that time, the discussion will not be about Locke’s recovery speed being too fast, but the FBI’s abuse of lynching against an enthusiastic and cooperative citizen. problem.

soon.

Locke was supported by the nurse and walked out of the examination room.

"Locke."

Gwen ran up quickly, covering her eyes with tears in her eyes, and directly took over the nurse's work, supporting Locke: "Are you okay?"

Locke shook his head: "It's okay, it's the same as last time, it just looks scary. I'm a cowboy, a cowboy, and I'm not afraid of pain."

Gwen wanted to laugh, but then caught herself.

In this case, laughing is not a good idea.

"Mr. Broughton."

Lawyer Bushen Lawn over there came over: "There is a matter, because of the principle of the rights of the parties, I must tell you. The New York FBI said that they hope this matter will not be brought to court. They will conduct it in private. Communicate firmly.”

Gwen frowned: "No, the FBI is clearly abusing its power."

Locke said: "Lawyer Lawn, you know me. I am not short of money. When I was in the orphanage, someone told me that if you make a mistake, admit it and stand upright after being beaten."

Bushen Lawn nodded: "I understand."

Then let’s get started.

Bushen Lawn also didn't want Locke to solve it in private. This would be a case that shocked the country, and based on the existing clues, they almost had a chance to win.
