The news Levi saw was indeed caused by Frank.

Although only a few days have passed, as the ceiling of a single soldier among normal humans on Earth, he is not only proficient in various combat skills, but also very familiar with various agent skills.

In addition, Levi pointed out the direction of investigation and suspects in advance, and provided various potions and props.

In this case, if Frank cannot achieve some results in a short time, it will be too bad for the reputation of the Punisher.

The movement in the news was caused by Frank solving the Homeland Security agent Carson.

But Carson was not the first.

Frank's comrade Billy was.

Because among the three people Levi mentioned, Billy's status was the lowest. After retiring, he was just a knife in Rollins's hand.

So he was also the easiest to investigate.

After a short investigation, Frank soon discovered some abnormalities in Billy.

For example, the extravagant and decadent life, and the huge amount of money from unknown sources in the family.

So Frank did not hesitate and immediately prepared to take action against him.

Although Billy was Frank's former comrade-in-arms and friend, and was an elite soldier only one level lower than Frank, Frank easily subdued Billy.

After the interrogation, Billy confessed quickly - although he was an elite soldier like Frank, Billy was obviously not a determined person - otherwise, he would not have been recruited by Rollins and betrayed Frank.

It was also from Billy's mouth that Frank learned the real reason why Rollins wanted to kill him.

Although the operation in Kandahar was illegal, it was not fatal to Rollins.

The real reason was that Rollins, as a senior CIA executive, had been using the channels of the military and the CIA to sell flour.

In fact, selling flour is really nothing for the CIA.

Because since its establishment, the CIA has always had a tradition of selling flour and selling arms to raise funds.

Otherwise, relying on the little money allocated by Congress, the CIA would never have been able to become the world's number one intelligence agency.

Why is the CIA only the world's number one intelligence agency?

Of course, it is because this is the Marvel Universe.

With SHIELD and HYDRA in front, the CIA can only stand back.

So for the CIA, selling flour and arms is not a big mistake.

But the premise is that the money you earn from selling flour and arms is mainly used as CIA funds.

Of course, in this process, the person in charge can also make some money under various names, but the big money must be handed over.

So under normal circumstances, even if someone makes a mistake in this process, the CIA's senior management will help clean up the mess.

Of course, there is another situation, that is, you have a separate channel and only have a cooperative relationship with the CIA-such as Barry Hill, the pilot in "American Action".

But Rollins's situation is not included.

Rollins used all the resources of the CIA.

But he was not selling flour to the CIA, but selling flour to himself.

He took all the benefits.

This behavior is taboo even in the CIA.

So if the news leaked out.

What Rollins had to face was not a legal problem. In any case, as far as the laws in the United States were concerned, the worst that Rollins could do was to be sentenced to life imprisonment for selling powder.

But he had violated the taboos of the CIA, which was really fatal.

The CIA would not tell you about the law.

Committing suicide with dozens of bullets in the back was a relatively merciful way to die.

Rollins did not want to go to jail, and he did not want to die an unnatural death.

So he chose to kill and silence the witnesses.

The goal of the unauthorized operation in Kandahar was to interrogate and kill an Afghan policeman named Ahmed.

Rollins's apparent name was that the policeman was related to the rebels.

But in fact, it was the policeman who caught a US soldier working for Rollins transporting flour.

Originally, this matter should have ended here.

But with the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security last year, I don't know why, they started investigating this matter.

This is actually normal.

The establishment of the Department of Homeland Security, a new intelligence agency that integrates more than 20 functions in the United States, has opponents that are not only those countries and forces that threaten the United States.

There is also the CIA, the most powerful intelligence agency in the United States.

Although the Department of Homeland Security has the word "homeland" in its name, it is actually a comprehensive intelligence agency that takes into account both domestic and overseas intelligence.

Its functions overlap with those of the CIA and the FBI in many aspects.

It can even be said that the Department of Homeland Security is a combination of the CIA and the FBI.

Its authority directly overrides these two existing departments.

The FBI is fine with having such a father above its head.

Since the death of Hoover, the founder of the FBI, the authority of the FBI has been weakening.

Moreover, the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security is actually based on some of the original departments of the FBI.

Even many departments of the FBI were directly stripped out as a whole and incorporated into the Department of Homeland Security.

So the FBI easily accepted the addition of such a new department.

But the CIA is not.

Since its establishment, CIA has been the only completely independent intelligence department among all intelligence departments in the United States, and it is not under the jurisdiction of any government department.

If we must name a jurisdiction department, it can only be the White House - this is also the reason why CIA needs to earn its own funds. Other intelligence departments are backed by strong departments, and Congress approves funds very quickly.

For example, the FBI, although its power is not as great as before, but it is backed by the Ministry of Justice. Although the annual budget is not very large, it is stable.

The newly established Department of Homeland Security is even more amazing, with an annual budget of more than 60 billion (2013).

And what about the funding of CIA?

It all depends on the mood of the incumbent president.

If the president is in a good mood and is willing to fight for CIA, then the funding of CIA during his term of office may be very high, perhaps as much as tens of billions.

If the president has a bad impression of CIA, then most of the funding during his term of office may be cut, and it may only be a few billion.

But no matter how much or how little the funding is, the autonomy of independent departments is definitely greater than that of departments with jurisdiction.

No one likes to have a big daddy above him, especially the kind that suddenly appears.

Therefore, the CIA was not very interested in the newly established Department of Homeland Security.

Although the White House asked the CIA to provide intelligence support to the Department of Homeland Security.

But so far, the CIA has only provided some expired or worthless intelligence.

There is no real valuable intelligence.

The Department of Homeland Security, which is in the limelight, is naturally unhappy about this.

So while always performing its duties normally, it always wants to find opportunities to find fault with the CIA.

As a result, this time, it found Rollins, the senior operations director of the CIA.

And also got a key piece of evidence-a video file of the interrogation of Ahmed at that time.

Even Rollins, the person involved, did not know the existence of this video.

But it has to be said that as an important villain in the Punisher series, Rollins has a bit of luck.

The Department of Homeland Security was merged from more than 20 functional departments of the original US government.

Although it has undergone a relatively strict screening.

But it cannot change the reality that its personnel are more complicated.

For example, Carson Wolfe.

He was originally a member of the Coast Guard and had started to cooperate with Rollins a long time ago.

After the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security, the Coast Guard was also placed under the jurisdiction of the Department of Homeland Security.

Carson's job was also adjusted accordingly, and he became an agent of the Department of Homeland Security.

And he became one of the investigators investigating Rollins this time.

So, this video was intercepted by Carson.

For this reason, an intelligence analyst who knew the content of this video was "dealt with".

However, although the video was intercepted.

But there is still some information pointing to Rollins, Frank, and Billy, who participated in the Kandahar operation.

Because the action team that participated in that operation was ambushed by the rebels on the way back under Rollins' deliberate leak. Except for Frank and Billy, all other members died.

It was also for this reason that after returning from that mission, if Billy hadn't stopped him, Frank, who died of his teammates, would have almost killed Rollins directly.

It was also because of this incident that Rollins hated Frank.

Afterwards, he bribed Billy, Frank's close comrade-in-arms, to monitor Frank. It was Billy who revealed to Rollins that Frank and his family would go to the park for a picnic that day.

And this time, after Rollins knew that he was being investigated by the Department of Homeland Security, he immediately discussed with Carson and Billy and planned to kill Frank.

Not only did they disguise this action as a gang execution, but they also led all the clues investigated by the Department of Homeland Security to Frank.

In other words, they not only wanted to kill Frank, but also wanted to put a big pot on Frank.

But they calculated everything, but they didn't expect that Frank didn't die after falling into the sea.

And they met Levi, a cheater.

It has to be said that as agents, the plans of Rollins and the other two were actually very strict.

In the original time and space, even Frank had been kept in the dark for many years, and only under the guidance of others did he find clues and finally take revenge.

But now it's different.

Levi gave the name directly, so Frank didn't have to spend any effort to find clues.

In just a few days, Billy and Carson were both eliminated.

Only Rollins was left, and Frank had not yet tracked him down.

As the head of the CIA's operations department, Rollins was very alert.

Billy suddenly lost contact, and when he killed Carson, there was a little noise.

Rollins immediately sensed the danger, so he hid and began to track down the murderer - at this time, he had not yet suspected Frank, the dead man.

Frank acted decisively and secretly, so the news that he was not dead did not leak out.

So he was patiently waiting for the opportunity.

But neither Rollins nor Frank expected that.

Someone acted faster than them.

Hell's Kitchen.

The most mixed neighborhood in Manhattan.

But this is also the best place to hide.

So Frank wanted to hide his tracks.

He also chose to stay here during his revenge.

That afternoon, Frank had just bought some food and was about to return to his apartment.

But before he got close to the apartment building.

He noticed something was wrong.

There were some strange figures around the apartment building.

Was he discovered?

Frank narrowed his eyes.

But he did not choose to escape.

Instead, he chose to pretend to return to the apartment as if nothing had happened - not only because he was skilled and daring, but also because the potions Levi gave him were still in the apartment, and he had to take them back.

But he did not expect that the surveillance was so bold.

Not only did he surround the building.

He did not even do basic cover-up.

When he arrived at the floor where he lived, he found that the residents of the entire floor had been cleared out.

The door of the room where he lived was directly open.

When did the CIA do things so recklessly?

But it was not right.

If it was really to deal with him.

Then why didn't they even deploy a sniper on the commanding heights around him?

As a top fighter and agent, Frank is very sensitive to danger, but he can be sure that there is absolutely no sniper around.

This is obviously not in line with common sense.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Frank, who couldn't figure it out, still carried his things and went straight to his room.

There is someone inside.

Frank felt it before entering the door.

But he didn't feel the danger.

This feeling is too strange.

When Frank walked into the door, he saw a one-eyed black bald man wearing a windbreaker, sitting on the dining table in his apartment.

And on the dining table, there were some bottles and jars, which were the medicines, bandages and bombs that Levi gave him.

"... Nick Fury? Why is it you?" Frank's face remained unchanged, and his pupils shrank slightly.

Although he had learned about the existence of S.H.I.E.L.D. from Levi before.

But he didn't expect that he would be able to contact it so soon.

And the one who came to the door was Director Nick Fury.

"Who else do you think it is? William Rawlins?" Nick Fury said casually, "By the way, which gypsy did you get these little gadgets from? Aren't you afraid of drinking people to death?"

"Haha, so this is the quality of a SHIELD agent? When the master is not around, you rummage through the master's belongings?" Frank snorted and retorted.

"...How do you know about SHIELD?" Frank's words made Nick Fury, who seemed careless at first, become serious in an instant.

The purpose of his visit this time was actually to recruit Frank.

After all, Frank's movement was quite a big deal.

This situation did not occur in the original time and space Punisher plot because the Avengers had already been formed at that time.

So for SHIELD at that time, Frank's pure human pioneer had little effect.

But it's different now.

Let alone the Avengers.

At this time, even Black Widow had not joined SHIELD yet.

Hawkeye was just a newbie.

So during this period, human pioneers like Frank were still very valuable to SHIELD.
