The Witch's Bodyguard [Comprehensive Anglo-American]

Long before the wizards gathered, Ma Linglong cast a spell around the bar to expel Muggles, no Muggles would want to approach this area, or show curiosity about the bar, they couldn't see the bar in their eyes.Only wizards and certain people can discover the location of the bar through magic.

But the new guest is not a wizard, nor has he received an invitation letter from Ma Linglong. He is just an ordinary agent without any superpowers. The reason why he was able to find this bar and not be affected by magic is probably related to a ring related.

That was Ma Linglong's ring, and the master's aura was attached to the ring, so he could locate it here.

Coulson wore a suit no matter where he went, and that had become his shirt. He drove to the bar, which was faintly illuminated by the barrier.Although Coulson came to this place, he couldn't find the exact location. He first called Ma Linglong, and then obtained the qualification to enter the interior.

In the pocket of Coulson's suit was the ruby ​​ring that Ma Linglong gave him at that time, and he has kept it with him to this day. Of course, Coulson did not come to the UK from the United States to return the ring.

"I'm here to give money again." These were the first words Coulson said after meeting Ma Linglong.

"Sounds like nothing good." Ma Linglong said so, but was curious about his visit.

The wizards gathered around, and they looked at the strange Muggle with friendly and curious eyes.

"I think this is supposed to be a bar?" Coulson said, and he gave the children a genuine smile. "They don't look like they are 18 years old."【Note】

"What, you want to report me?" Ma Linglong said.

"Just kidding," Coulson said.

Stark patted Coulson's arm and looked him over from head to toe: "You're recovering well, buddy, I heard you were stabbed in the kidney by Loki and almost couldn't recover, are they going to give you Putting a mechanical kidney in your stomach, so as not to cause problems with your kidney function, sounds a bit hurtful to your self-esteem."

"It's the lungs, not the kidneys, Stark, there is an error in your version." Coulson said to Stark, and he took out Ma Linglong's ring from his suit pocket, "Thanks to Linglong." He said, "I guess it's related to this ring. In fact, what Loki's cane stabbed was actually my heart, but the wound was transferred and I saved my life."

Stark said angrily: "Linglong, you actually gave the ring I gave you to another man?" Stark had long forgotten about this matter, and looking back now, it seems that the girl's ring was gone after the New York War. He put it on his little finger, but he was immersed in his own world and didn't pay attention to it. It wasn't until the day of the proposal, when he put the diamond ring on Ma Linglong, that Stark suddenly felt that the girl's little finger was missing something.

"You don't need to thank me, it's just your luck." Ma Linglong took the ring from Coulson and put it back on her own. She showed a momentary expression of relief: "I think, see you later Have you passed Loki?"

"Yes." Coulson said, "I thought I might have to end my career as an agent. The doctor told me that my injury was very serious. Even if I fully recovered, it would be difficult for me to move as freely as before." One night in the hospital, staring at the ceiling and thinking about what else to do in the future, Loki appeared, wearing a dark green long trench coat to wrap his slender figure inside, like the god of death.

On the one hand, Coulson wondered why Loki appeared in his ward. After he woke up, someone told him the good news that humans finally defeated the aliens. As for Loki, he should return to Asgard. .On the other hand, he felt a chill. Coulson was too weak to get his gun out of under his pillow.That is the professional habit of most frontline agents. Under the pillow, in the corner of the table, or under the bed, as long as they stay in one place for more than 48 hours, they will get used to hiding a gun in these places for emergency use.

Loki unplugged his oxygen tube and suspended his electrocardiogram. Just when Coulson thought he was going to die, he suddenly felt that his condition began to improve, and he no longer had difficulty breathing because of the lack of oxygen tube. , or feeling weak all over, and even the chest pain after the lung was punctured disappeared.

Loki healed his wounds, and Coulson couldn't believe that it was really him standing beside the hospital bed. It wasn't until the evil god pursed his lips and said a few ironic words that Coulson was sure that it was the damned Loki. base.

By the time Coulson fully reacted, he was able to get out of bed and walk around, and even perform many difficult movements as before, as if he had never been seriously injured.

Of course Loki left, quietly,

Coulson did not tell his attending doctor the reason for his recovery. It might sound cruel and weird. After all, neither high-end medical equipment nor the authority of the medical field can cure him, but he was reborn with the help of magic. After hearing this, the medical staff will think that he has a brain problem.

"Natasha went to Russia, so I was sent to discuss business with you." Coulson said tentatively, "Can I talk to you alone?"

"No." Stark said, "It's like if I asked your cello girlfriend to talk alone, you would refuse."

"I haven't established a relationship with her yet." Coulson said, "We just..."

"The ambiguous period, I know." Stark said quickly, "You have to work harder, Phil, don't always think about work, you can take advantage of your work injury to take a year's paid vacation, and do some dates and dinners Your job will make your relationship progress quickly." Although his mouth was always full of teasing jokes, Stark was very happy to see Coulson standing in front of him in good health.

"I'm not worried about you looking for her Stark alone." Coulson maintained a professional smile, "After all, you are no longer single, congratulations, I think the world will be less so because you have a significant other interesting."

Stark took Ma Linglong's hand, kissed the engagement ring, put his arms around her waist, and said, "It's a pity, but I don't think I'll find another charming girl like me , if she is not married, she may run away at any time."

Fred and George whistled. They pushed Harry and said, "I heard that you also like an oriental girl."

Harry's face flushed completely red: "It's not like that..."

"Wow!" Stark exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Sirius, look at your godson, he's going to fall in love, aren't you going to say something encouraging."

"No." Harry tried to explain.

"Which house?" asked Sirius. "I hope it's not Slytherin."

"What do you mean?" Ma Linglong said calmly.

Sirius smiled and said, "I mean, Slytherin girls are hard to chase."

Ron looked completely ignorant. He stared at Harry as if he was staring at a stranger. He couldn't believe that his good friend had someone he liked, and he didn't even know about it.

Hermione said, "It's Ravenclaw's Cho Chang, but she has a boyfriend, a very handsome Hufflepuff."

Ron said to Hermione: "I thought you only cared about your academic performance."

Harry looked at Hermione in horror, he had no idea how a good student who was busy with homework all day could tell: "We just met once or twice in the same public class, not what you said... "

"You fell in love with her once or twice. I guess every oriental girl is very attractive. Otherwise, how could that girl named Qiu attract two handsome guys at once?" Stark kissed Ma Linglong again. Face said, "Teach you a trick, you must show your enthusiasm and cleverness when you are pursuing an oriental girl. Don't think they are not enthusiastic enough. Once you are recognized by her, she will be much hotter than you imagined, especially in the in bed."

"Oh, Anthony!" cried Mrs. Weasley, "it's full of underage children here!"

Ma Linglong took Coulson up to the attic. When the door was closed, she heard Harry change his attitude from strongly denying to humbly accepting Stark's suggestion. It took less than 2 minutes.

Coulson put the cake box on the table, he took out a tablet computer from the black briefcase, Coulson quickly threw himself into the task: "Actually." After he handed the tablet to Ma Linglong Said, "We want to hire you as an instructor of Agents of SHIELD. The purpose is to train a group of exorcist commandos capable of dealing with ghosts. The time is one month."

"My aunt once did similar training work." Ma Linglong said, "Her name is Ma Xiaoling." [Story in I Have a Date with a Zombie 3]

"Yes, there are indeed these records in the data." Coulson is obviously familiar with the deeds of the previous generation of the Ma family. "She has worked for the Hong Kong government for a while, so I think you should also be very experienced in this."

"Then you should also know that all the exorcist special forces died at that time." Ma Linglong said.

When Ma Xiaoling was only in her 20s, zombies were rampant. The Hong Kong government selected a group of special forces and asked Ma Xiaoling to train them to be experts in catching zombies.In one operation, they fell into the enemy's trap. Except for Ma Xiaoling, none of them survived. This incident caused great damage to the Ma family's reputation.

"I know, because they were amateurs from the beginning, and none of them was independent enough." Coulson checked the materials of that period. Although the Hong Kong government later blocked the truth of the whole thing, most of the files were also It was destroyed, but S.H.I.E.L.D. still found some information to prove that ordinary people without spiritual power can also be trained as professional exorcists.

"There are 10 people in total, and some of these 10 people already have certain experience in dealing with supernatural events." Coulson said.

"If that's the case, why are you looking for me?"

"But you are the most professional, you know how to deal with different ghosts, but their equipment is relatively simple." Coulson said, "You can look at their information, I can guarantee that they will definitely train with your aunt That group of people is different.”

Ma Linglong did not immediately look through the information on the tablet, but said: "The reason why I am better at handling supernatural events than other psychics is not only because of my strong power. I have been in touch with them since I was a child, and I know them I also know how to avoid conflicts with them. My ancestors have dealt with ghosts for generations, and I was able to exorcise ghosts when I was five years old."

"That's good, we want someone like you." Coulson said with a smile. "That's why I came to you."

"You may not understand, I think I need to make it clear that even if I was born to do this, I can't guarantee that it will be absolutely foolproof. I have enough experience. I can guarantee that I will not be harmed by ghosts because I have talent, but you want me to train 10 people within a month and let them learn how to catch ghosts. Even professional psychics cannot do such a thing Maybe learn, because 90.00% of the psychics on the market are half-baked, really, do they have any grudges against you?" Ma Linglong pointed out bluntly, "There are many ways to make them go to hell as soon as possible. Choose to spend money."

"Let's talk about money." Coulson said, "One person is 50 US dollars, which is just a deposit. After the end, we will give you 200 million. And, I am also one of these 10 people."

"Unfortunately, I don't think I can promise you."

"I know you will refuse." Coulson rushed, "but you have to listen to me."

Ma Linglong looked at her, waiting for her to continue.

"After the Great War in New York, we know that in addition to high technology, those magical and supernatural forces are also very terrifying, even surpassing the destruction caused by nuclear weapons. We can make advanced weapons to deal with them, but we cannot control the damage caused by ghosts" Cole Sen said heavily, "Actually, S.H.I.E.L.D. also has a department that specializes in supernatural events. There are very few people, and their understanding of supernatural phenomena is also very lacking. They think that holy water and the Bible can deal with those ghosts. Of course, it is undeniable that holy objects have Sometimes it works, but most of the time, you know, if they did, S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't be looking for you. I think you've come across a lot of people who understand ghosts as energy, and I know it Not exactly, because I saw, two years ago, in front of the Pentagon, and you stuck with me."

"I remember that you wanted to take that ghost away to do research on it?"

"Undoubtedly yes." Coulson said, "Actually, I don't know anything about ghosts. Before I joined S.H.I.E.L.D., I didn't believe in ghosts in this world."

"Because you have killed people, you think that if there are ghosts, you should be revenged by the ghosts of the dead, but you have never encountered it once." Ma Linglong paused and said, "The world of ghosts also has laws. Once a person dies , don’t belong to this world, unless there is an extremely deep resentment forming an entity, normal people can’t see ghosts, and they can’t hurt you, otherwise the human world would have been messed up long ago.”

"You don't have to agree right away." Coulson put the file bag with the S.H.I.E.L.D. The sooner the better."

"What if I say I'm not interested in this?"

"Your interest is to make money, and this is a job to make money." Coulson patted the portfolio, and then said, "We also have a backup plan. There are still a few qualified exorcists in the United States."

Ma Linglong snorted coldly.

"The first choice is you, that's for sure." Coulson said quickly, "We will try our best to persuade you to participate, but if we fail in the end, it will only be someone else."

"I don't mind if you come to me directly if you encounter problems with supernatural powers. Since we have cooperated many times, I can give you a 8.8% discount and give priority to it." Ma Linglong said generously, "Five million US dollars is enough for you Kill spirits thousands of times, or wake up 500 Captain America."

"Thank you, this offer sounds very attractive, but you can't solve all the troubles alone." Coulson added before Ma Linglong showed displeasure, "For example, in the New York War, teamwork is very important. Important, isn't it."

Ma Linglong was thoughtful, but did not answer right away.

Coulson is very good at negotiating, he will stop at the point, without going into details, leaving room for the other party to ponder.

He was about to leave when Ma Linglong said, "Your fate has been broken."

"What?" Coulson looked at her puzzled.

"You should have died a few weeks ago, but you survived, so your fate has been disrupted."

"Doesn't sound like a good thing?"

"It's not too bad." Ma Linglong said, "The only trouble is that you may see things that you couldn't see before, whether it's outdoors or indoors, if you don't want ghosts to follow you home, go out at night When you’re on the road, it’s best to pretend you can’t see anything.”

Coulson thought for a while, and asked, "Can you apply for an annual card here?" He said very seriously, "Or membership system, I can save a little, because most of my work is at night."

"No." Ma Linglong replied without thinking.

After Coulson left the room, she opened the portfolio, Stark twisted his buttocks to the jazz, and walked lightly behind Ma Linglong.

"I really want to surprise you." Ma Linglong said, shaking the thick stack of documents she pulled out from the file bag, "but I'm not free right now."

Stark put his arms around Ma Linglong's waist and said, "It's strange, you are not short of money, why do you always work so hard?"

"I'm also very surprised, you are not in a hurry to save the world, why do you always stay up all night?"

"Who doesn't have a hobby." Stark pointed to the copy paper and said, "Well, when the group of wizards downstairs finally caught the second Muggle and was 'interrogating' him without noticing that I slipped away, Let's see what this is?"

The second Muggle Stark was referring to was, of course, Coulson.

Ma Linglong withheld the file: "This is a private file."

"So you just took the order?"

"No."

"Then the secrecy is not established." Stark turned to the first page without authorization, and he whistled, "Look who this is, Steve Rogers, what did Agent Phil want you to do, put a curse on him ?"

Among the 10 documents, Ma Linglong knew at least 4 people, and Natasha and Barton were also on the familiar list.

In addition to the four of them, this is obviously a team composed of 10 experienced SHIELD elite agents. They come from different departments, and their living environments and areas of expertise are also different.The only thing they have in common is that they all seem to be able to fight, and each person's profile clearly indicates the fighting skills they are good at, including their level.

Captain America is undoubtedly the tallest, and the others are evenly divided. Among them is a male agent who used to be a pastor.

"This is a top-secret file." Stark whistled, but he didn't stop at any of them, "What exactly does S.H.I.E.L.D. want you to do?"

"It's not a request, it's a request." Ma Linglong corrected his words, "Be their instructor and teach them ghost-hunting skills. I didn't agree."

"Promise him, why don't you answer, think about it, you can point to Captain America's nose and order him to do a hundred pull-ups, or other difficult movements, but you are his chief, he must obey orders unconditionally " Stark kissed Ma Linglong on the cheek, "You are a gold medal teacher at Hogwarts, there is no reason why you can't teach a group of adults."

"You don't understand, teaching them is tantamount to sending them to death." Ma Linglong told Stark about the other party's needs, "One month, what can I teach them."

"It's clearly written here." Stark said, "Teach them how to deal with ghosts and how not to be dealt with by ghosts."

"not that simple."

"Of course it's not easy." Stark took out one of the copy papers and said, "Such an urgent time, such an expensive price, and such an elite army..."

"What do you want to say?"

"S.H.I.E.L.D. must have some bad idea again, I swear they must have another shady plan ready to be implemented, or is being implemented." Stark said faster, "Fury can't spend a fortune casually. Huge sums of money, just for you to teach this group of people the skills of ghost hunting, any one of them can do more valuable tasks than ghost hunting. Maybe they really want to do something different this time, but they should let you go first To be a spiritual consultant instead of being an instructor directly is like I am their weapons consultant, but they don't let me participate in the development plan of the Rubik's Cube, and I don't even think about it."

"so?"

"So, S.H.I.E.L.D. will not sacrifice these 10 people casually, so you don't have to worry about it." Stark hooked Ma Linglong's chin with his finger, "Try it, maybe you will get some unexpected gains from it, For example, Fury had to give me the data for the Rubik's Cube, because if he didn't, I'd be releasing S.H.I.E.L.D. secrets online."

Ma Linglong laughed: "You are such a devil."

"Fry is not a kind angel." Stark clicked on the portfolio, "These people are not either."

Ma Linglong hugged Stark's neck and licked his lips with the tip of her tongue: "What would I do without you?"

The author has something to say: [Note]: Most states in the United States allow adults aged 18 to enter bars, but only 21 years old to drink, and they cannot drink in bars.

Tomorrow's preview: Ma Linglong teaches a group of American agents to overcome their fear of ghosts, and the process doesn't go well.
