Meng Ran's introduction took quite a while, and Nick Fury, listening beside him, was increasingly astonished.
He hadn't expected such a powerful, violent department to exist within the Hydra organization.
This monster, hidden in the shadows of S.H.I.E.L.D., was not only secretive but also possessed sharp fangs.
It was fortunate that the number of these ability users was small; otherwise, with their powerful abilities, the Hydra organization could have run rampant.
"So, your team has actually been dealing with monsters' troubles recently, right?" After listening to Meng Ran's explanation, Nick Fury organized his thoughts and asked him.
Hearing Nick Fury's question, Meng Ran didn't hide anything and just nodded, continuing, "Because of certain events, we can say that we're in a life-or-death situation with the monsters."
"Now you have the answers to your questions, and I hope you can find something useful. But remember, don't make too much noise, and don't alert the enemy."
Hearing Meng Ran's words, Nick Fury nodded. He had to admit that tonight's information exchange had truly opened his eyes.
Because he controlled S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury was always very confident in his intelligence-gathering abilities.
But the information about the monsters that Evil Ghost mentioned today completely touched on his blind spot.
In fact, this alone couldn't deny S.H.I.E.L.D.'s strength in terms of intelligence, but monsters were a more special existence.
Their information defense system had a super AI that was on par with Little White, so S.H.I.E.L.D.'s lack of information in this regard was also normal.
If Meng Ran hadn't tangled with the monsters because of Liu Xiu, he probably wouldn't have noticed the monster, this special mercenary organization.
After the two had finished exchanging information, Nick Fury also said softly to Meng Ran, "I'll summarize the data you want when I get back, and we'll contact each other later to arrange the handover."
Meng Ran nodded when he heard Nick Fury's words, and he had no objections to this approach.
After the two chatted for a few more sentences, they left the rooftop separately.
Perhaps because he had just experienced Odin's sudden departure, Meng Ran didn't leave this time without a word.
This situation made Nick Fury a little uncomfortable. On the way back, he kept thinking about why he felt something was off, and finally realized it was because of this.
In the time that followed, Meng Ran's life briefly returned to tranquility. This was mainly because their current information gathering and research had hit a bottleneck.
Not only was the investigation into the monsters' activities stalled, but the research on removing the chips from Meng Ran and Liu Xiu also faced obstacles.
The direct consequence of the chip removal research being obstructed was that a few more unfortunate monsters and black water lackeys had said goodbye to their heads.
Seeing these results, Meng Ran and Liu Xiu had to temporarily halt their experiments on these individuals, shifting from practical research to theoretical research.
After all, the number of these people was limited, especially the useless small fry; one less meant one less. So, it was better to be economical.
And so, the first Christmas after the Battle of New York finally arrived.
A lot had happened recently, and Meng Ran and Gwen took advantage of the school holidays to have some fun with Liu Xi and the others.
For Meng Ran's family, Christmas was festive, but it wasn't the traditional New Year. They didn't place as much importance on it.
For Gwen's family, Christmas was indeed the most important day of the year.
However, this Christmas was different for Meng Ran because Gwen had invited him to her house for dinner.
According to Western family customs, inviting someone to Christmas dinner was a significant gesture.
It was as significant as an Eastern person inviting their significant other to spend the New Year with their family, carrying a special meaning.
Meng Ran understood this, so he was inevitably a little nervous on Christmas Day.
From breakfast to lunch, he was distracted.
Meng Ran's current state was, of course, observed by Meng Huo, Zhao Li, and Liu Xiu.
Meng Huo and his wife weren't as nervous as Meng Ran, but they were also filled with emotion about going to Gwen's for Christmas dinner. Their son had grown up.
At the dining table, Meng Ran's family was eating lunch.
Meng Ran chewed a mouthful of rice, looking thoughtful. He didn't know how many times he had chewed, but the rice was still in his mouth, not swallowed.
Meng Huo watched his son, who couldn't even eat his food properly, and said in a loud voice, "Son, relax a little. It's just going to see your future father-in-law and mother-in-law. You need to maintain a good attitude so you can act naturally."
Liu Xiu nodded when he heard Meng Huo's words, picked up a few pieces of ribs, put them in Meng Ran's bowl, and then said, "Brother, it's no use thinking so much. Eat first, look, the ribs are getting cold."
Before Meng Ran could say anything, Venom inside him had already started yelling, "Big brother! Ribs! If you don't eat, I can't eat either! At least let me have a couple of bites!"
After Venom's relentless bombardment, Meng Ran finally snapped back to reality.
Looking at the ribs in the bowl, he picked some up and put them in his mouth. He ate one himself, and gave the rest to Venom.
He was distracted for many reasons. On the one hand, he was nervous, and on the other, he didn't know how to face George.
For some reason, he would feel nervous at the thought of George's face, far from the composure he had when wearing the Venom suit.
In the last few moments, he had even thought about what would happen if George found out he was Venom.
He shook his head vigorously, shaking off the chaotic thoughts in his mind. Meng Ran decided to eat first, eating more so he wouldn't be hungry at night.
He definitely wouldn't be able to eat much when he went to Gwen's house for dinner that evening.
Seeing that Meng Ran finally had an appetite, Meng Huo also smiled with satisfaction: "You should be this calm, just like your old man back then."
"You know, your grandpa and grandma and I were all smiles and talked very happily. Your grandpa even held my hand and wouldn't let me go to sleep."
Hearing Meng Huo's frivolous boasting, Zhao Li rolled her eyes at him, then ruthlessly exposed his bragging.
"Don't listen to your dad's bragging. He used to shake with nerves just walking."
"After meeting your maternal grandparents, he didn't say anything except for introducing himself."
Hearing his mother's words, Meng Ran and Liu Xiu couldn't help but chuckle.
His boasting was ruthlessly exposed, and Meng Huo couldn't help but smile sheepishly, then glared at Meng Ran and Liu Xiu.
"Is the food not to your liking?" He said softly, looking at the two who were grinning foolishly.
Meng Ran and Liu Xiu immediately stopped laughing after hearing Meng Huo's casual words, and then obediently buried their heads in their food. Even for the sake of this meal, they couldn't be too arrogant.
