Arranging for Insiders

John Garrett was stunned for a moment and then asked, "You must have known from the beginning to design such a trap, but I don't know what gave me away that made you suspect me in advance."

Wesley, of course, would not tell him that he would be a true mind reader. "You don't need to know that. You are now under arrest." Wesley locked him and Grant Ward in the interrogation room, then turned to look at Rainer. "You can go. Although you didn't play any role this time, we will still release you. What you did before will be deleted, but your file will be recorded in SHIELD. I hope you do your best."

Rainer glanced at Wesley, then left the plane and was escorted out of the base by the agents outside. She had to go back to see someone, Sky's biological father, and Wesley let her go because Sky wanted to be a Shockwave Girl. She was the key.

Wesley sent Rainer off. When he returned, he asked the others on the plane to organize their equipment and prepare to leave with Agent Hand. Then he, Phil Coulson, and Victoria Hand came to the office on the third floor.

"Agent Hand, although things have not been good between us, Phil and I have always trusted you," Wesley said directly.

Victoria Hand was silent for a moment. "I admit that I have some opinions about some members of your team, but I have always made plans according to the mission. I have no intention of targeting anyone."

Phil Coulson smiled and said, "We never doubt that. The reason why I let you come here is that there are some things for you to know, and the opportunity is rare." Then he looked at Wesley.

Wesley handed a USB flash drive to Victoria Hand and said, "This is a list of Hydra members in the headquarters. Although the director is now transferring agents who can be trusted out of the headquarters, he will not empty the headquarters. So I will give you a list. These people are all Hydra members, and your mission is to gather non- Hydra members. In the future, when we attack the headquarters, you will need to fight back inside."

Victoria Hand took the flash drive and showed her confusion. Then she looked at Wesley in surprise. This situation had never occurred to her. "You mean to say that our SHIELD has been completely penetrated by Hydra? How is that possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. These Hydra members entered S.H.I.E.L.D. after World War II. They were scientists at first, and then they slowly developed and grew, including their people in the World Security Council, but now we have never found out who they are. In addition, Minister Alexander Pierce is also a member of Hydra. Now he is in charge of leading Hydra."

"This is impossible." Victoria Hand stood up in surprise.

"Nothing is impossible. Not many people know about this matter, and we have to solve this problem internally. Otherwise, the Divine Shield Bureau will fall apart. Hydra's purpose is now Project Insight. They originally advocated the installation of a large number of weapons, but it was not successful because of the director's objection. But now they have accelerated the construction. We don't know exactly what their plan is, so we may launch an attack ahead of time."

"But where can we find manpower?"

"You don't have to worry about that. The New York branch has completed the cleanup, and an assault force is now being formed there. Later, it will become the main force of the attack on the headquarters. Your task is to prevent Hydra from taking the three space carriers into the air. Now, the underground factory at the headquarters has sent their people everywhere. They are controlling the influence and rights of the director in the factory." Wesley and Nick Fury have discussed it. They can only form a team internally, so that they can place a contingency plan.

"I'll think about it," Victoria Hand said.

"It's not a consideration, but you have to do it. Otherwise, once the situation escalates, SHIELD will be attacked. I think you should know that the American intelligence agencies and the military have been drooling over SHIELD for a long time. The technology and resources here must not be leaked, or the world will be in chaos, and SHIELD may be located as an illegal organization." Wesley made it sound very serious.

Victoria Hand was still hesitant. She didn't know if she could trust Wesley and Phil Coulson. Agents are agents. Agents are suspicious, so she was torn.

Wesley seemed to sense her hesitation and then said, "The Avengers will side with the director. We don't need so-called interests and power. I think you know that very well."

"The Avengers are also in the war?" Victoria Hand said in surprise.

"Part of the war. Don't forget, Captain America is at the headquarters now. He will definitely become Hydra's target, and we haven't informed him yet. He doesn't know about us."

"Then the captain is not very dangerous?"

Wesley shook his head. "He is Captain America, Captain America who fought in World War II. This kind of small problem is not difficult for him, just as you think I can safely complete the Wencheng mission. Otherwise, we would not be Avengers. Besides, Black Widow is with him, so there is nothing to worry about."

"Okay, I agree. I'll contact you secretly when I get back."

"It's not a contact. Don't contact those non-Nine-Headed Snake members. Except for those you trust completely, you just need to organize them. Even if there are a few more Hydra members in the middle, there will be no problem. We will let you know before the operation. You can say it then. This is in case they don't believe you and go to Gao Fa." Wesley was very thoughtful.

"Got it. I'm leaving. How do I contact you in the future?" Victoria Hand asked.

"Every time you contact us, you can encrypt a transfer through the mothership. This way, you can guarantee absolute security." Wesley's design relies on Elizabeth's security. Wesley's information is handled in secret. No one has the authority to view Wesley's records.

"Okay." Victoria Hand left with her men, and Wesley was ready to talk to Phil, but before that, Wesley let Simmons deal with his injuries. Sky had finished dealing with him and changed out of the combat suit. Wesley came to her side and said, "Well done, you look like an agent, but you still need some training."

"Is it just good?" Sky asked Wesley.

"No, it's quite good. Keep working hard. I'll treat you to a big meal on leave as a reward."
