With an extremely bewildered mood, Newbella and Peter walked into Coulson's office. The layout here is almost exactly the same as his office in the Trident headquarters, which brought them a sense of familiarity and made people feel relaxed. .

Coulson and Gemma had already been waiting inside. As soon as the system prompted them, they stood up quickly and turned to look in the direction where Newbella and the two came in.

"Hi, Gemma!" Newbella greeted Gemma happily, "Long time no see!"

"It's been a long time." Gemma said with a smile, "You too, Peter."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Coulson began to talk about getting back to the topic: "I have already learned about Elipi and Eros from your father. Regarding those hints, have you researched any results?"

Newbella shook her head in distress: "No. The only breakthrough is that the grapes germinated, but it was planted in Lucifer's house... Oh, right, where is Lucifer?"

"He went back to rest." Coulson said lightly, "Do you know what those grapes can be used for?"

Newbella: "I don't know."

Coulson asked again: "So, do you know the connection between it and "Elipe's Notes?"

Newbella continued to shake her head: "I don't know..."

Even though he got three negative answers in a row, Coulson still did not give up: "Is the grape, "Aribi's Notes" related to our defeat of Ares?"

"I don't know..." Newbella answered "I don't know" so ashamed, as if I didn't help anything, and I didn't know anything about it...

"It's okay, these things involving the Protoss are inherently complicated." Unexpectedly, instead of showing disappointment, Coulson turned to comfort her, "You've done a good job, really."

"Thank you." Newbella was very frustrated, "What should I do next? Peter brought the seeds and other things, and we can plant them now, but I really have no idea what to do after they are planted." .”

"That's why I asked Gemma to come here." Coulson said confidently, "She has studied that notebook before, and she specializes in biochemistry, and she also has some research on Ares, but the premise is that the grapes can be stored in the cold storage. Survive, or we will lose the only clue."

"I don't know, it should be possible." Newbera hesitated, "After all, it can grow in Olympus."

"It can still grow in Lucifer's greenhouse." Peter added, "Those grapes can survive in such a harsh place, I think it will definitely germinate in the flower garden of the cold storage."

Everyone snickered knowingly, but it was a pity that Lucifer himself was not there.

"Then let's plant the grapes first, and think about other things later." Coulson said, "Hey...the director wants me to give a briefing. I wanted to make a plan, but I didn't." It is impossible to think about the next steps in advance! The people and things of your protoss are too unpredictable, and there is no previous information for our reference."

Newbella laughed straight: "I'm sorry!"

"The only thing we can deploy in advance is the combat plan." Coulson changed the topic, and everyone followed suit, "I will seize the time to discuss this part with the action team, and try to come up with a complete plan as soon as possible. You conduct targeted training."

"But, are we the only ones?" Peter asked confused, "[The Avengers] hasn't been rebuilt yet, our members..."

"They're all on their way." Coulson smiled, "Besides, [Avengers] has never really disbanded."

Peter felt relieved in an instant, but Newbella specifically asked, "Will my dad stay in the cold storage?"

"Of course, he is the main force, and he is also responsible for the research and development of equipment." Coulson affirmed, "At least before the end of Christmas Eve, all the Avengers must gather together, so you can rest assured."

So Newbella was also relieved.

"Any more questions?" Coulson asked. "Any questions?"

Everyone shook their heads together: "No more."

Afterwards, Peter went back to the dormitory and got Alibi's satchel. The SHIELD botanist first took some seeds for research, and the rest were planted in the flower garden area that the botanist had divided in advance.

"Whatever it is, plant it first, and then talk about it after planting it." Coulson stood in the middle of the flower garden and watched the operator sow the seeds. He could see that he was also at a loss for these magical seeds and this action without a plan. , "However, our top priority is still the grapes, and the blank pages of "Alibi's Notes."

"I know," Newbella said.After answering "I don't know" so many times, I can say "I know" this time. Oh, what a difficult life!

"The flower garden was supposed to be looked after by a botanist from the scientific research department, but you know..." Looking at the strangely shaped seeds in Newbera's hands, Coulson suddenly ran out of words, so he had to say "you know" Gesture, "So, this area will be handed over to you to take care of. Oh, don't be nervous! You don't need to write scientific research papers, you just need to be responsible for coming over regularly every day to take a look, and then watering and so on."

Coulson left in a hurry after explaining the precautions. As the real person in charge of the cold storage, his work was very busy.For example, now he has to rush back to meet with the action team to formulate a preliminary operational policy, then report the progress to the director, further refine the operational policy, and then go back to have a meeting with the action team...Maybe he has to go to science and technology at night Let's watch Tony's new invention.

In such a comparison, Newbella felt that she was really idle.In order not to look too idle, she took Peter and Gemma and poured a pile of water on all the newly planted seeds until the amount of water exceeded the tolerance of the soil and the muddy water flowed out along the edges.

"Anyway, these supplies are inexhaustible." Newbera put the kettle on the table boldly, "Chloe poured a lot of water last time... Speaking of Well, have you pulled out all the grapes in Lucifer's house? Don't leave any clues for Agent Hand!"

"Well, it's all pulled out." It was Peter who answered.

Due to the content of the previous actions, both he and Lucifer were members of the "Compound Potion Victims Group", so they communicated more on the "bus".When Lucifer realized that all the grapes had to be eradicated and could not be left to Agent Hand, it was Peter who used spider webs to pull back his mobile phone scattered somewhere, otherwise Lucifer would not be able to call Chloe for help.

"It took Chloe, the housekeeper, Dr. Martin, and a few friends from the Chloe police station a half-day to finish the vines." Peter said, "They wanted to set a bunch of grapes on fire and burn them all." , but a forensic doctor estimated that if the fire was set directly, it would probably burn the whole house—those vines grew so fast that when they started to deal with it, it had almost covered the whole house, And each vine is at least as thick as a man's arm."

"Arms of adults?" Gemma looked worriedly at the planting area assigned to them by the cold storage, "Well, is this small area really enough?"

"Will it be watered too much?" Even Newbella was a little worried, "Can we dry the ground? Is there still time?"

Peter thought for a while, and copied Coulson's speech neatly: "Whatever, plant it first and then talk about it."

After planting the grapes, the three of them went to Gemma's laboratory and began to study "Aribi's Notes".In fact, there is nothing to study. Except for the blank page, Gemma and Newbella have read the rest of the content hundreds of times.Especially Newbella, she even translated the original version of "Alibi's Notes", and she drew the illustrations of the English version one by one.

"But now we have the seeds mentioned in the notes." Peter reminded, "and every kind of Elipe has written notes, isn't this a new breakthrough? Gemma can make it according to the recipe in the notes ...make whatever it is."

"Yes!" Gemma suddenly realized, "I have the ingredients! Newbella, we have the ingredients!"

"Yes, yes..." Newbella also looked like she had just woken up from a dream.Previously, her attention was all on the blank notebook, and after discovering that grapes might be able to unlock the secret of the notebook, she paid attention to grapes wholeheartedly, completely ignoring other plants. Didn't connect them with the recipe in "Alibi's Notes".

"Although the titles of these recipes are...difficult to understand." Gemma flipped the pages of the English version of "Alibi's Notes", "Is this the original text? These titles have nothing to do with the content! What is 'goo'? Chick, cough, cough, see'?"

"Believe me, I translated it completely according to the original text." Newbera said helplessly, "and all the titles are like this, which means that there is no hint. The only part I can understand is the part about the characteristics of plants, and then According to the characteristics of the plant, it is reversed to the effect of the formula..."

"I did the same thing." Gemma frowned slightly, "I have deduced all the formulas in reverse, but I can't conduct experiments, so I can't verify the accuracy."

"Fortunately, now you can verify your research results." Peter pointed in the direction of the flowerbed, "Although I don't know when they will germinate, compared with the growth rate of grapes, you can get them in about three days. All ingredients."

Gemma's eyes lit up instantly, as bright as the light from a wolf smoke searchlight in the middle of the night: "Experiment, experiment! I can conduct an experiment!"

"Take it easy, my dear—" Newbella stepped back carefully behind Peter, trying to stay away from Gemma as much as possible, "Don't get excited, why don't you put down the scalpel in your hand first?"

"Oh oh oh, Newbella, you don't understand!" Gemma held the scalpel and wanted to rush over to hug her, but Peter quickly snatched the scalpel away. Newbella had already been hiding far away, so she had nothing to do. I began to circle around the laboratory excitedly, "I can finally study the things of the Protoss further! Although I missed Loki's scepter, of course that is not my research field, but... the plants of Olympus ! And those recipes!"

"Peter! Run, run!" Seeing that Gemma was getting more and more excited, Newbella quickly opened the door and called Peter, "God! My sin, I repent, I should not have led this innocent scientist into a dangerous field ah!"

"Why do you have to repent to God? You are God yourself..." Peter said weakly, while watching Gemma's movements from the corner of his eye, if she did something dangerous in agitation, such as self-mutilation or something , he immediately rushed over to block it.

"I'm just a demigod, and I don't care about praying and confessing." Newbera said confidently, "You can just pretend that I just confessed with a personality of human blood."

Peter: "...you are becoming more and more philosophical."

The author has something to say: Gemma: Ooooh my research my thesis! ! !

Grapes and other plants: human scientists are terrible, or I'd better not sprout.....
