Having already grown accustomed to everything, Li Chengfeng didn't dwell on it. He simply took the folder and glanced at the cover.
"Arkham Asylum patient files?"
"Keep reading." Black Egg (Nick Fury) showed no expression, only motioned for him to continue browsing the information.
Nodding, Li Chengfeng opened the first page and saw a form. In the upper left corner of the form was a palm-sized photo.
Bleached blonde hair, with the tips dyed red and blue.
And no matter how he looked at her, her appearance was almost identical to Margot Robbie's version of Harley Quinn.
Perhaps the entity that created this mixed-up World also felt that some of the outfits and art styles in the comics were just too outlandish?
Li Chengfeng pouted. He sometimes had nothing to say about the tight-fitting suit culture in American comics.
But they were certainly exciting.
"Real name Harleen Quinzel, height 170 cm, weight 64 kg."
"A special Psychologist at Arkham Asylum, specifically responsible for treating Gotham City's most insane criminal—the Joker."
"But she was attracted to the Joker, completely fell into madness, released the Joker, and called herself Harley Quinn, becoming the Joker's criminal accomplice. Later, during a recent bank robbery, she was severely injured by the Joker's explosion and was admitted to Arkham Asylum for treatment."
"Officer, though it's impolite, what's the use of showing me a madman's medical records?"
"Oh, didn't I text you? I hope you can be in charge and assemble a team." Director Fury feigned a surprised expression. "And Harley Quinn will be the first member you recruit."
"Ding, mission 'Team Genesis' has been issued."
"Mission Briefing: Young Agent, the team is officially established. The first mission is to recruit members and persuade 'Harley Quinn' to surrender."
Tsk, this broken system is quite eager.
"A team? With all due respect, Officer, I was trained as an FBI Agent, always working alone and resolving everything. If you need someone to infiltrate enemy territory to dismantle a tactical nuclear bomb, I'm your man; if you need someone to assassinate key personnel behind enemy lines, I'm your man. But teamwork? I'm really not good at it." Li Chengfeng said with a righteous expression, showing a hint of difficulty. "And, are you really sure that a patient from an asylum can become an FBI Agent?"
Nonsense! If it were an ordinary parallel World, then fine!
But this is a comprehensive World with who knows how many works mixed together. Who knows how many bizarre things will happen!
A team put together by you, Director Fury, now it's Harley Quinn, what about later?
Is it still far from superhero organizations like the Avengers or Justice League!?
Just start messing around with those Supermen!?
What kind of duplicate Phil Coulson!?
His fate wasn't great. In the original story, he was stabbed to death by Loki during the Battle of New York.
Although he was later revived, the pain he endured through the Tahiti project was more terrifying than death.
And he had a premonition that if the Avengers were to be re-formed in this World, there would absolutely be characters from other works messing things up!
For example, this medical record of Harley Quinn in his hand.
Li Chengfeng sighed inwardly. This was the downside of a comprehensive World.
All predictions about plot development had turned into nonsense!
Everything was completely new and different.
"I think you're absolutely right, so now you need to learn to be a leader of a team." Black Egg (Nick Fury) was like all leaders; once a decision was made, advice was always just advice. "By the way, you should be a Level Six Agent, right?"
"...Yes, Level Six Agent."
Li Chengfeng saw Black Egg (Nick Fury)'s tone shift and nodded in response.
Agents of the World Federal Investigation Bureau are divided into levels one to ten. Level Six might not seem high, but it is already the highest rank a frontline Agent can achieve. It's the same principle as military ranks; you can't have a super special forces soldier with numerous merits charging into battle with a general's rank, can you?
"Then now, welcome to Level Seven, Agent Li Chengfeng." Black Egg (Nick Fury) sat back behind his desk. "Since you are someone I specifically seconded from the Republic General Bureau, you only need to report to me. Therefore, you don't need to pay attention to other higher-ranking Agents... even if their rank is higher."
Li Chengfeng blinked. Level Seven Agent. That meant he had now officially moved out of the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation)'s middle management and into senior management.
And being solely responsible to Director Fury, in a sense, he was an imperial envoy.
"I've always wondered, is the American General Bureau so short-staffed that you specifically seconded me from another country?"
"You really don't know how to hold your tongue... But you're not wrong, the American General Bureau is indeed short-staffed, especially for senior Agents who can handle things independently. Recently, the entire America seems to be cursed, with incidents requiring the American General Bureau's involvement increasing by dozens of times in a short period. So if I want to quickly assemble a team that can handle any emergency, I can only second an excellent senior Agent from the most peaceful and least short-staffed Republic General Bureau to lead the team."
Li Chengfeng was stunned. He hadn't expected this Black Egg (Nick Fury) to admit it so quickly, and with such a straightforward tone. He had originally thought Director Fury would say some mysterious riddles to PUA him, but instead, it felt a bit like he was throwing caution to the wind.
It seemed that the Director of the American General Bureau was indeed under immense pressure recently.
"Alright, stop staring at me with one eye. Go to the thirtieth floor. I've assigned you an adjutant. I've already had her start preparing the detailed team building process and plan a week ago."
"Yes, Director." Li Chengfeng nodded, but he still wanted to tease this Black Egg (Nick Fury). So he asked, feigning curiosity, "Off-topic, Director, the scar under your eye patch... how does it look like it was scratched by a feline?"
"...Get out!"
Seeing Black Egg (Nick Fury) raise his hand to dismiss him and no longer intending to speak, Li Chengfeng tactfully turned and left. However, as he turned, he caught sight of a Shì Yuán Shòu (Matter Devouring Beast) curled up in a corner, yawning.
Heh, men, so stubborn.
This meeting with the new leader was decent. Most importantly, he didn't say much, but he directly gave him the privilege of acting expediently.
But none of that mattered anymore. What mattered was that when Director Fury just mentioned assigning an adjutant, he used "she."
Who could it be?
Mockingbird?
Sharon Carter?
An unawakened Quake?
Or the long-legged Aunt Maria Hill?
Li Chengfeng suddenly felt that transmigrating still had some advantages.
At least there would definitely be eye candy.
"If a leader dates a subordinate, won't people call it workplace harassment?" Li Chengfeng muttered as he re-entered the elevator.
This is the "free" America, so it might really get reported.
He only needed to go down one floor, so Li Chengfeng stepped out of the elevator as soon as he entered.
However, the atmosphere had completely changed.
If the conference room on the thirty-first floor, aside from being ridiculously large, had the style of a typical American law enforcement agency.
Then the thirtieth floor gave the impression that technology had suddenly advanced an entire generation, with the office area feeling very futuristic.
There were many people here, but everything was orderly, and no one paid attention to the transmigrator who walked in, looking a bit out of his depth.
After curiously looking around for a while, Li Chengfeng was engrossed in watching internal processing information flash across a large screen when a hand suddenly patted his shoulder.
"Agent Li Chengfeng?"
"That's me, that's me."
Smiling as he turned around, Li Chengfeng still wanted to leave a good impression on his new colleague.
But after seeing who had patted his shoulder, his smile froze on his face.
It wasn't Quake, nor Maria Hill.
It wasn't Mockingbird or Agent 13 either.
The woman was not wearing the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation)'s standard blue uniform, but a red qipao embroidered with golden butterflies, and a gun holster was vaguely visible on her slender thigh.
Having the freedom to choose her attire indicated that she was at least an elite Agent of Level Four or higher.
With short black hair, an inexplicably mysterious aura, and a mouth that always seemed to subtly hint at a smile, she resembled a charming and mysterious villainous femme fatale more than an elite Agent.
"Hello, Agent Li Chengfeng, I am the adjutant Director Fury assigned to you."
"You can call me Ada Wong."
"Finally... we meet."
