American comics: Shelter the Heavens

After leaving the office, Coulson found Natasha. After learning what happened at Barton Farm, Coulson finally understood why Fury went to find an exorcist.

But faced with a nonsensical task, Coulson didn't know where to start, so he had no choice but to start from the Internet.

Soon he found a lot of so-called exorcists through the Internet, but when he used S.H.I.E.L.D.'s resources to check on them, he found that nine out of ten were fake, and the remaining one was just a show.

Coulson had no choice but to check one by one, and finally found that there were more than a dozen people who seemed to really have the ability to exorcise demons. For this reason, Coulson could only record the identities of these people. He planned to use the stupidest but most effective method to prove their identities.

That is, they came to him one by one. Fortunately, most of these dozen people were in New York or Washington, DC, so he planned to go to Washington, DC first to check the situation.

Just after Coulson left, a figure came to Coulson's seat and inserted a USB flash drive into the host. After twenty seconds, the man left with the USB flash drive.

And at twenty seconds, the camera that was originally able to see Coulson strangely changed its angle, and this angle just happened to block Coulson's desk from being seen.

Coulson didn't know all this, because he had already appeared at the door of a house. He knocked on the door, and a white-haired old man opened it.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" the old man asked curiously.

"I'm here to see Jack Douglas. Do you know him?"

"I am Jack Douglas," the old man said.

This shocked Coulson, because according to his investigation, the exorcist named Jack Douglas should be only 32 years old, but the old man in front of him did not look like 32 years old at all.

"Aren't you only thirty-two?"

"It's a long story, but what exactly do you want to talk to me about?" the old man asked with a frown.

"I want to ask if you can really exorcise demons?"

"who are you?"

Coulson used his FBI identity as usual, but the old man shook his head: "You are not from the FBI, but I can see it with my eyes."

Coulson frowned slightly. Just as he was thinking of other reasons, the old man turned his body and said to him, "Come in."

Coulson thought for a moment and walked in.

As soon as he entered, Coulson took the lead in looking for a way to escape from here and how to deal with any emergencies that might occur.

"sit down."

Then the old man brought a glass of water and handed it to Coulson, but Coulson did not drink it.

"What? Are you afraid that I will drug you?" The old man looked at Coulson and said with a sneer.

"I am afraid."

The old man shook his head and said, "Okay, tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I want to ask, is the exorcism video you posted on the Internet real?"

When the old man heard about the exorcism video, he sighed and said, "It's true, but it's also because of this exorcism that I became like this."

"You really are Jack Douglas."

"You don't believe me? That's right. After all, I don't look like I'm 32 years old now, but I'm Jack Douglas. Tell me what's going on."

Coulson looked directly at the old man and through his micro-expressions, he confirmed that the old man was not lying.

"I am an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and this time I would like to invite you to become a consultant for our S.H.I.E.L.D."

"Advisor? What advisor?"

"Exorcist consultant, our SHIELD is designed to handle supernatural events, basically people with super powers or aliens, but recently a large number of evil creatures have appeared all over the world. These evil creatures have strange abilities, just like demons. For this reason, we need professionals to help us deal with such incidents."

"I can't exorcise demons anymore. Look at my current condition. Do you think I can still exorcise demons?" said the old man with a wry smile.

“We can help you live longer.”

"It's useless. My life was taken away by the devil. No matter what you do, I only have so much life left." The old man said with a wry smile.

Coulson didn't expect to have a bad start, but it can't be said that he had a bad start, after all, he was a real exorcist, but he didn't have much time left.

"Have you never tried to take back your own life?"

"It's too difficult. Unless I know the name of that demon, there's no way I can get my life back."

"Name? I think I know who can help you. Have you heard of the name Midnight Dad?" Coulson asked.

"I've heard of him. He seems to be a very powerful being. Even demons and angels would give him some face. Do you know him?"

"We know each other, so if he takes action, can he restore your life span?"

"If there is anyone in this world who can help me regain my life, he is definitely one of them." The old man said softly.

"That's fine. By the way, I have a list here. You can see which exorcists here are genuine and which are just pretending." Coulson quickly took out the list. The old man took a look at it and then pointed out a few exorcists he knew.

"Are you sure they are capable?"

"Yes, but the power may not be so strong, but it can indeed exorcise demons."

"That's fine. I'll arrange for someone to negotiate with them, and then you can come with me to find Midnight Daddy."

The old man nodded, and then Coulson sent the list to Fury, who immediately arranged for someone to negotiate with them. On the other side, Coulson brought the old man to the Midnight Bar.

"Hello, I'm Yuntian's friend, and I want to find Midnight Daddy." Coulson did not bring up his identity as SHIELD, because to them, Yuntian's identity was more worthy of their respect.

The two bodyguards at the door looked at each other. After all, this involved Yuntian, and they didn't know whether they should let him go or not, nor did they know whether they should notify Midnight Daddy.

"I am indeed his friend, if you don't believe me..."

"Isn't this Agent Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D.? How come you have time to come to see me? Let them in." Midnight Father's voice rang in the ears of several people. Coulson was a little surprised, but quickly returned to his normal expression.

But the old man seemed very calm. Then the bodyguard at the door let them in. As soon as they entered the bar, they smelled a strong smell of blood, and then they saw a horrifying scene.

Not only that, the "guests" inside turned their heads to look at the two of them, and some even ran up to them, sniffing the scent on them.

"Humans, fresh humans, are they our food?"

"I advise you not to move. They are our boss's guests." The bodyguard said lightly, and instantly scared those people away. Coulson and others were able to enter the private room where Midnight Dad was.
