Chapter 47 Mandarin Part 1

New York, broadcast building.

As usual, the building was bustling with people, everyone performing their duties, with nothing particularly special happening.

But, upon closer inspection, you could see that everyone had a hint of tension in their expressions, occasionally glancing towards the studio on the second floor.

"Captain Barton, he doesn't want to participate in the fight."

Angus's voice came through the communicator.

Hawkeye, who was hiding in the room opposite the studio, showed no reaction.

As if he had already expected it, he simply said calmly,

"I always said that if he joined S.H.I.E.L.D., he would be the first to run away when there's a mission."

Of course, it wasn't just Hawkeye who heard this; Maria Hill, who was also hiding, heard it too.

This left Maria Hill somewhat puzzled.

A person willing to save this city, why wouldn't he come to arrest a heinous criminal?

Could it really be out of fear?

"Did he give a reason?" Maria Hill asked softly.

"He said that since S.H.I.E.L.D. is so powerful, they should handle it themselves."

Angus said somewhat helplessly.

Hawkeye, who had been expressionless, frowned slightly, let out a cold snort, and asked,

"Did you report this to the boss?"

"It has been reported."

Angus replied.

Hawkeye said nothing more and continued to stare at the studio across the way.

Through the studio window, Hawkeye could clearly see the side profile of Mandarin.

At this moment, he was sitting in a chair, playing with his rings.

Two men stood beside him, looking like they were waiting for something.

"I'm feeling a bit uneasy, Agent Barton."

At that moment, Maria Hill's voice came through the communicator.

This surprised Hawkeye slightly.

After all, Maria Hill was not usually like this during missions.

"Don't worry," Hawkeye said softly.

He seemed very confident about the plan to capture Mandarin this time.

"I feel like we should have waited for Cap and the others to return and discuss this together."

Maria Hill shared her thoughts.

While watching Mandarin's movements, Hawkeye responded coolly,

"In fact, I agree with you."

"But the situation is urgent. If Mandarin escapes, it will be very hard to catch him again."

Hill remained silent.

Hawkeye's words made sense.

Mandarin was right in front of them now.

Everyone in the building was one of their agents.

There was 360-degree surveillance, snipers at every corner, and various weapons placed strategically.

Honestly, Mandarin's chances of escaping were very slim.

Hill moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something else, when a voice came through the communicator.

"Hill."

As soon as she answered, General Chris's voice came through.

"How is Mandarin?"

Hill glanced at Mandarin in the studio and said seriously,

"We have him under control."

After speaking, she paused and voiced her concern,

"It's just that he has been in the studio for a long time without coming out. It's strange, Mandarin..."

The Secretary of Defense interrupted her before she could finish,

"This operation is very important. I expect you to bring me news of victory."

"Even though Nick Fury and those superheroes are not here
