Chapter 1292
"Judging from the medical report, your so-called symptoms of going into demonic possession are organ damage. At least the result is organ damage, so I'm afraid you must recuperate here for a period of time, unless you want one of your organs to be vomited out of your throat when you go home."
Shiler stood in front of Xu Shangqi's bed with a medical report, while Xu Shangqi, lying on the bed, was clearly not so comfortable. He was sweating on his forehead because Natasha was also standing in the room staring at him.
When facing this beautiful red-haired female agent, the object of many people who crossed over into another world's fantasies, Xu Shangqi couldn't even muster a thought of appreciation.
Natasha is the super-agent Black Widow trained by the Soviet Union. When she is not in a disguise state trying to confuse others with her beauty, she only makes people think of certain dark tortures.
Or rather, every agent standing in this room has this ability. Their careers will polish them into a military bayonet. Besides having enough lethality, they must also be scary enough. It's best to make people confess what color their underwear is just by looking at them. This is the job agents do.
Xu Shangqi discovered that his beautiful fantasies about Marvel were completely ended in this ward.
The fact is, S. H. I. E. L. D. is not like what many transmigrator works describe, where you can come and go as you please, as if it were the backyard of the Avengers and their friends.
This is an extremely dangerous agent base. As an ordinary person, being selected to participate in the investigation of super-powered individuals proves that they are outstanding enough, at least reaching the peak of ordinary people.
Looking at the eyes in the room staring coldly at him, let alone a college student who had just graduated, without professional psychological quality and expression control training, he would have been seen through long ago.
After Shiler finished telling Xu Shangqi the examination results, he turned to look at Natasha and said, "Ma'am, I know you are eager to get a result, but I think that during this recent period, you can focus your attention on the investigation of the incident. This child needs a certain amount of rest, his body needs to heal, and his spirit needs to recover. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee the accuracy of the inquiry results."
Natasha hugged her arms and showed an unsatisfied expression. She looked at Shiler with quite a bit of dread and said, "Alright, Dr. Shiler, since Director Nick trusts you so much, then we also trust your judgment. I can only give you two weeks at most to let him recover to his best state and then provide some useful clues... Let's go."
The subtle atmosphere of the conflict between security personnel and scientific researchers between Natasha and Shiler was simply obvious. Although Xu Shangqi was young, he was not stupid. He knew who he could rely on now.
"Doctor, you have to help me!" After Natasha left, Xu Shangqi immediately hung his eyes on Shiler. He propped himself up from the bed with his elbows, looked at Shiler, and said, "They want to interrogate me, I must escape from here!"
"Alright, calm down first." Shiler sat down on the chair next to him unhurriedly and said, "Things are not that serious. It's just that these agents are very good at creating a serious atmosphere. Actually, you are not the key."
"They just want to know the details of the conflict you had with the police that day, in order to investigate who exactly wanted to smear Interstellar Transport Technology."
"But the problem is, I don't know the details!" Xu Shangqi raised his voice and said, "When I reacted, the bullet had already hit the back of my head. When they took action, I hadn't crossed over into another world yet."
"Besides, weren't there many people present that day? Why must they hold onto me?" Xu Shangqi felt very aggrieved.
"Because you are a super-powered individual, and you are under the jurisdiction of S. H. I. E. L. D." Shiler shook his head and said, "Others are under the jurisdiction of the FBI. The FBI investigated you just to pin this pot on S. H. I. E. L. D., and it turned out you really have superpowers."
"This is why Natasha looks at you so unpleasantly. After the FBI did this, S. H. I. E. L. D. had to send people to participate in the investigation to avoid taking the blame. Agent manpower was already insufficient, and you increased their workload. Can they not hate you?"
Xu Shangqi's face turned pale. He looked up at Shiler, and Shiler nodded and said, "Yes, those deeds done by American police and agents that you heard about in the country that don't quite conform to humanitarianism are true, and they might be even more cruel than you."
"Then what should I do?" Xu Shangqi was already completely panicked.
It's not that he hadn't fantasized about living a carefree life in the superhero world after gaining a second life, making friends with the Avengers, practicing his martial arts, or starting a company, using his prior advantages to make money, or maybe even having a romance.
But more deeply rooted was that in the twenty-plus years he had lived, he had never broken the law. The only time he looked for the police was because he lost his phone. Where had he seen armed police with guns all over the street? Not to mention these agents who looked fierce from their appearance.
Superheroes in the Marvel world are a minority after all, and not all ordinary people revolve around them. Leaving aside those heroic stories with fantasy colors, the law enforcement methods and levels of the United States are no different from the United States in the ordinary world where Xu Shangqi lived, highlighting fishing law enforcement and emptying magazines.
But every country has its own national conditions. Most Americans are willing, or have already adapted. But for a Chinese person who suddenly parachuted here, this world is simply too crazy.
Previously, Xu Shangqi replaced Shang-Chi's identity and worked in a restaurant in Chinatown. Although that also belonged to the United States, they were all familiar faces, and public security was relatively good. Asians rarely brought guns to cause trouble.
Suddenly being caught and brought into S. H. I. E. L. D., facing so many fierce agents, the gap was too big. An ordinary college student, once panicked, was full of terrible fantasies about torture and forced confession, and his brain immediately stopped working.
"Why am I so unlucky?!" Xu Shangqi wailed, "Others cross over into another world here, either dating Black Widow or saving Iron Man. Why is S. H. I. E. L. D. in this world so strong?! Isn't there only a few agents in the movie and half of them are slacking off?!"
"
"You said it yourself, that's a movie." Shiler shook his head, slowed his tone, and said, "Why do you think a fledgling college student can make Black Widow fall in love with him just by meeting her once? And where did you get the guts to date a woman called Black Widow?"
"Saving Iron Man is also nonsense. In a situation where you don't save him and he can run back by himself, according to Tony Stark's temper at that time, he might only think you are in the way."
Xu Shangqi was immediately choked, because he found that what Shiler said seemed to make a lot of sense.
Watching a movie for fun without questioning logic is fine, but if you really bring it into the real world, then many plots in transmigrator tropes are very outrageous.
Not to mention what kind of men Natasha hasn't seen in so many years, even if she is as beautiful as a fairy, it's at most a one-night stand. The identity of Black Widow determines that she cannot become anyone's reliance. Agents have always been just tools and have no say.
When Iron Man hadn't had a great awakening at the beginning, his temper was stinky for two miles. He was the biggest in the sky and on the ground. He didn't even listen to Pepper Potts, so who could you expect him to listen to?
Thinking of this, Xu Shangqi looked like he had grabbed a straw and looked at Shiler, asking, "Then what about Spider-Man? Where is Spider-Man? Does he ignore this kind of behavior of agents disregarding human life?"
"Spider-Man is very busy." Shiler replied, "Why don't you think about it? Adding the burden of a superhero to your college and internship life, can you still have time to keep an eye on everything happening in every part of New York?"
Xu Shangqi felt a little desperate, because he found that there really didn't seem to be time.
During his internship in his senior year, he made up credits in the morning, took a two-hour car ride to the company for an internship in the afternoon, and came back busy until midnight. If he had to go out to fight crime, then I'm afraid sleeping would become a luxury, not to mention wandering around the streets.
Because Xu Shangqi is now in the Marvel world, he has to use the standards of the real world to look at everything here. And the fact is, Spider-Man is only one person, and New York has nearly ten million people. He is also just one of ten million people. How could he be so lucky to just run into Spider-Man?
But just then, he looked at Shiler as if he had grabbed a straw and said, "Then how did you get this job here? I mean, how did you gain a foothold?"
To be honest, before realizing this situation, Xu Shangqi was still a little disdainful. After all, he was a young man, full of blood, and felt that since he lived a second life, he should naturally achieve some results.
More importantly, which fan who has seen the movie doesn't want to chase stars in reality, get along with the Avengers, and reverse the tragedies of their life stories?
Even more, transmigrators who have criticized these heroes from an objective perspective will inevitably see them as puppets with fixed behavioral patterns, feeling that as long as they use what they know about them from the movies, they can occupy the first opportunity and even do better than these superheroes.
So Xu Shangqi felt that since he crossed over into another world to Marvel, and was only working as a psychiatrist here, working overtime in another world, wouldn't that be a waste of his second life? If he doesn't go and have a magnificent time with superheroes, or even go and start his own business, what's the difference between him and a salted fish?
But now he discovered that his mere, not-very-strong, and not-very-controllable superpowers couldn't become his trump card. And leaving aside superpowers and identity, with his own abilities, it's not easy to find a job to settle down in the chaotic Marvel world.
After all, his previous life's academic qualifications are not recognized, and he is an Asian who is very easily discriminated against. Now he is also involved in the struggle between the FBI and S. H. I. E. L. D. agents. It can be said to be a hell-difficulty start.
Xu Shangqi sighed deeply, feeling that his beautiful dreams had been shattered.
But fortunately, he is also a young man who has received higher education and has a strong ability to adapt to the status quo. He understands that his primary goal now is not to get to know superheroes and gallop across the world, but to first find a way to solve the predicament in front of him. He is very sure that he cannot stand torture and forced confession.
Looking at Xu Shangqi's panicked and frustrated expression, a trace of satisfaction flashed in Shiler's eyes, and then he began to answer Xu Shangqi's question.
"Your previous life was a college student, and I am a psychology professor. Although my academic qualifications and resume are not recognized, my knowledge is still in my brain."
"And, I am an emotionally stable adult. I have no interest in role-playing superheroes. I just want to find a stable job, and talent will not be buried anywhere."
"Speaking of which." Shiler leaned on the chair, crossed one leg, looked at Xu Shangqi, and asked, "What major did you study in college?"
Seeing the light in Shiler's eyes, Xu Shangqi had a bad premonition, so he said somewhat stutteringly, "... Civil civil civil civil civil engineering."
"Very good, what university?"
"Tongji University."
"Very good, how are your grades?"
"Top 5% in GPA, credits completed, internship at China Railway No. 2 Bureau."
"Great, go get a master's degree at MIT first, and then go to the construction site."
