The Mutant God in American Comics.

After Black Widow finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on Richard.

Compared to who Richard is and why the Security Council suddenly appointed him as the new director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Captain America and Black Widow are more curious about how Richard will find the murderer next.

Their murderer is sitting before you right now!
Richard first muttered in his heart, then said slowly: "I already have a plan on how to find the murderer."

"However, I don't intend to reveal the plan to you before the murderer is caught."

"As for why, the reason is very simple."

"I suspect there are spies from other organizations in SHIELD, and the spies hold high positions."

After hearing Richard's answer, Captain America and the others all frowned without exception.

Is there a spy inside SHIELD?
If the person who said these words now was not Richard, the newly appointed director, but someone else, they would just think that the other person was talking nonsense.

However, the person who told them this now happened to be Richard, whom they had never heard of before.

Is this the reason why the Security Council appointed him as the new director?

This thought immediately flashed through Captain America and Black Widow's minds.

Although they didn't speak, Richard knew what they were thinking just by looking at their expressions.

"How do you know... No, why does the Security Council think there are spies from other organizations in SHIELD?"

After thinking for a few seconds, Black Widow continued.

"That's easy, because Nick Fury and Alexander Pierce died in the Triskelion office."

"Although the murderer who killed them is a superhuman, it is impossible for the murderer to hide in the Triskelion Building all the time."

"If there hadn't been a spy tipping off, the murderer wouldn't have known exactly whether they were in the office."

"In addition, Alexander Pierce's last attack was also very suspicious."

"Judging from the wounds, the murderer who killed them is the same person as the last attacker."

"But the murderer only injured Pierce the last time and did not kill him, which does not make sense."

Richard glanced at everyone and spoke slowly.

No one except him knew why he killed Nick Fury and Alexander Pierce, let alone knew that it was a temporary decision on his part.

This means that everyone else can only speculate why the murderer did this based on the currently known conditions.

After hearing his explanation, Captain America and Black Widow fell silent.

After Nick Fury and Alexander Pierce were killed, they also considered whether there might be a spy inside S.H.I.E.L.D.

But in the end, they all gave up the speculation.

SHIELD is not an ordinary official agency, but an intelligence agency backed by the Security Council.

If there are spies inside SHIELD, it can only mean one thing, that is, the people in SHIELD are not just neglecting their duties.

An intelligence agency that claims to be the world's strongest actually has spies lurking in its headquarters. This is no different from a slap in the face.

After seeing Captain America and the others fall silent, Richard said slowly, "I have decided to take charge of investigating the spy myself."

"If there is nothing else, let's adjourn the meeting."

Captain America and Black Widow looked at each other.

Then he stood up and left the meeting room.

When he was the only one left in the conference room, Richard came to the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the conference room and looked at the scenery outside.

From the moment he approached the Security Council members, he was ready to make Hydra take the blame.

Although Alexander Pierce is one of the leaders of Hydra, only Hydra members know about this, and no one else knows about it.

Even if Hydra took the initiative to expose this information, Captain America and Black Widow would not believe it.

After standing at the window and looking at the scenery for a few minutes, Richard left the meeting room and came to the director's office.

He just sat down behind the desk and started the identity authentication program on the desk.

Soon, he logged into SHIELD's core database as the director of SHIELD.

Without any hesitation, he immediately browsed through the confidential documents that only the director and the minister of the Security Council were qualified to browse, including the Skrulls, the Devourer, the Cosmic Cube, Howard Stark's "relics", the Goliath Project, the detailed information of the first "Ant-Man" Hank Pym and the first "Wasp" Janet van Dyne, the specific information of Black Widow joining S.H.I.E.L.D., the specific list and storage location of 084, etc.

I have to say, it is convenient to have an apparent legal identity.

Although Richard knew about the existence of these things before, he didn't know everything clearly.

Apart from anything else, he didn't particularly know the details of how Black Widow defected from the Red Room and joined S.H.I.E.L.D.

Time passes little by little.

After reading through all the confidential information, a new plan emerged in Richard's mind.

While taking SHIELD for himself, he planned to use SHIELD to do other things.

For example, find Skye who has not yet awakened his shock wave superpowers.

After making the decision, he picked up the phone on the table and dialed an internal number.

"Have Agent Coulson come to my office."

Richard said to the assistant on the other end of the phone.

Although he just took office today, SHIELD has already prepared a new assistant for him in advance.

"Okay, sir!"

A clear and pleasant female voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.

After hearing the other party's answer, Richard hung up the phone.

Not long after, his assistant brought Coulson to the office.

Richard immediately took a look at the new assistant assigned to him by SHIELD.

This is a young woman with fair skin, beautiful looks, a curvy figure, big wavy golden hair, and wearing a gray OL dress.

Monica Swanson!

This is the name of the female assistant.

Judging from her appearance, Monica is only in her early 20s, like a female college student who just graduated.

But Richard knew that Monica, who looked harmless, was not an ordinary assistant.

Although he had never seen Monica in the movie, he knew without thinking that those who could serve as assistants to the director of SHIELD were all outstanding graduates of SHIELD trainees.

"You go out first."

Richard said to Monica.

"Okay, sir."

Monica nodded slightly, stepped on her high heels, walked out of the office with her long ivory legs, and closed the door gently.

After Monica left, Richard said to Coulson, "Sit down."

Coulson didn't say anything. He came to the desk and sat down, looking at Richard with a serious expression.

"I have a mission for you."

Richard didn't waste any words and spoke directly.

task?

Investigating the spies within SHIELD?

After hearing the word "mission", Coulson's first reaction was that Richard intended to ask him to investigate the spies in S.H.I.E.L.D.

Under Coulson's gaze, Richard slowly said, "There is a hacker group called Rising Tide. The hackers in it have frequently hacked into the databases of various official institutions and shared official confidential information on the Internet."

"Take some people and bring back a female hacker named Skye from the Rising Tide organization."

Catch hackers?
After Richard finished speaking, Coulson's expression turned a little ugly.
