A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

"Then why not go?" Beth snorted.

“Because of him.” Cao Gui pointed to the face of Nicholas Zhao Si on the computer screen.

Chapter 131 So unlucky!

"Damn it! You're not coming to see me anymore because of some guy!" Beth gritted her teeth.

Snapped!

Cao Gui rolled her eyes and slapped her lightly, annoyed: "This person is different; he represents a huge treasure!"

"Treasure?" Beth propped herself up, puzzled. "You found another treasure?"

"Not me, but us." Cao Gui shook his head, found a warm and soft spot to lie down, and said in a muffled voice, "Do you remember the pipe we found in the Arctic?"

Beth held Cao Gui's head, gently stroking his hair, pondered for a moment, and then remembered that thing.

"So there's information about a treasure on that pipe?"

"More or less, but not entirely," Cao Gui said. "After my investigation, I discovered that this treasure belongs to King Solomon, has been passed down for thousands of years, and finally came to America."

"What is the clue?"

"The Declaration of Independence," Cao Gui said with a smile.

Beth was taken aback: "Doesn't that mean you're trying to steal the Declaration of Independence?"

"Yes."

“…That’s something kept in a museum, under strict guard.” Beth poked Cao Gui’s cheek and said irritably.

"Therefore, I need your help."

"us?"

"Of course, you."

……

three days later.

Gwen, Beth, and Harry were looking at a book with a very fancy cover.

"So... there really is a treasure trove of information in the Declaration of Independence?" Gwen asked doubtfully. She had been very interested in American history lately and hadn't expected to hear such a wild and unofficial history.

Cao Gui took out a piece of paper, which contained the words on his pipe.

Harry stroked his chin. His family was currently facing financial difficulties, and he wondered if this treasure would be enough to fill the gap... King Solomon's treasure sounded quite impressive.

“So, guys, how are we going to get the Declaration of Independence?” Beth asked. “The museum is so heavily guarded, let alone stealing it, just getting close would easily trigger an alarm.”

“No problem.” Harry chuckled. “I’ll handle all the alarms and surveillance in the museum.”

“That won’t work either,” Gwen said. “That glass display case is three centimeters thick bulletproof glass. There’s no way to open it except with a bomb.”

“It’s not a big problem,” Cao Gui said with a smile. “These things always need maintenance. We’ll find a way to trigger the alarm, and then it’ll be sent to the maintenance room for some care. That’s when we can take action.”

"Let's go, guys, let's go treasure hunting."

Cao Gui rubbed his hands together. He wanted to use this money to start a company. Even if Hydra was exposed, S.H.I.E.L.D. or the US military would have to think twice about the consequences of a capital backlash if they wanted to take him down.

"Okay, wait for me to go back and get something," Harry said hurriedly.

Half a day later, the four arrived in Washington, D.C., the cultural and political center of the United States. The Washington Monument, standing in the distance, will probably be vandalized by Tom Holland's Spider-Man in a few years.

Inside the museum, Gwen and Beth entered the exhibition hall hand in hand. The security guards glanced at them and then looked away.

Since they were both students, and with their deliberate attire, all the security personnel completely overlooked them.

"Buzz~, guys, I've connected to the museum's data. I'll have top-level access to the surveillance system in three minutes."

Hearing Harry's voice in their headphones, Gwen and Beth exchanged a glance and slowly moved along with the other tourists. Three minutes later, they coincidentally arrived at the display case for the Declaration of Independence.

With a flick of their wrists, Gwen and her companion simultaneously shone an infrared laser beam onto the temperature sensor inside the display case. (Gu Yan)

Shortly after, the alarm sounded, and with a click, the glass frame protecting the Declaration of Independence was taken into the underground storage room.

Staff need to maintain it before it can be exhibited again.

From the surveillance footage, Harry saw the Declaration of Independence that had been recovered into the basement storage room.

"Cao, Gwen and Beth have completed their missions."

"Roger that!"

In the tree canopy, Cao Gui sat on a ball of clouds and slowly floated to the top floor of the museum, then came to the elevator shaft through the ventilation duct.

This is the employee elevator; you can't get in without fingerprint recognition. But it's not a big problem; Cao just cheats.

Cao Gui released the sphere cloud again, stood on it to change into his employee uniform, and casually put on a mustache like Iron Man's. Then he put on colored contact lenses and made his irises light green.

"Hey, damn it, where are you? I can't see you," Harry suddenly said.

"In the elevator shaft," Cao Gui said, preparing to enter the elevator through the emergency exit above it.

"Okay, I've replaced all the surveillance footage. You're now invisible."

Cao Gui nodded, slowly descended into the elevator, turned on the emergency exit, and according to Harry's feedback, there was no one in the elevator at the moment, so Cao Gui could proceed with peace of mind.

So Cao Gui thus brazenly entered the cultural center of the United States, and if he were to set a fire here...

Forget it, the idea is tempting, but the returns are zero, so forget it.

"Harry, where is the storeroom?"

“Go straight, the second room on the left, about 10 meters away,” Harry said. “However, this room requires a password, which unfortunately I don’t know how to crack, and I only gained access to the surveillance system, not the access control system.”

"What should we do then?" Beth asked worriedly.

"It's not a big problem, we'll find a way," Cao Gui said in a deep voice. "Harry, how many people are in the storeroom?"

“There’s only one… uh, a blonde ‘big’ beauty.” Harry chuckled. “Damn, interested in getting her? That would speed things up.”

Cao Gui's lips twitched, but she didn't say anything. Her two girlfriends, however, were listening attentively!

Sure enough, Gwen's scolding voice came through the headset, with Beth chiming in, constantly criticizing Harry's bad idea.

Cao Gui ignored them and silently leaned against the door, waiting for the person inside to come out. He couldn't get in, but the person inside would eventually have to come out.

About half an hour later, Harry reported that the blonde beauty was coming out.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound at the door. A blonde girl stood inside. Cao Gui's gaze slid down, sweeping over the nameplate on her chest. He slowly nodded. Hmm... this nameplate is a bit too white and a bit too big.

"You... hello?" The blonde woman asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Hello, Dr. Chase," Cao Gui greeted him calmly.

"Are you going into the storage room? I... I don't think I've seen you before," the blonde beauty said with a smile.

“Yes,” Cao Gui said with a smile, “My superior needs me to go into the storage room; he is in charge of the storage room.”

"Really?" The blonde beauty glanced at Cao Gui and chuckled inexplicably.

“I am the manager of the storage room, and I don’t recall contacting you.”

Cao Gui: "..."

I think I'm having some bad luck.

Isn't this woman a PhD? How did she become a manager?

The blonde woman chuckled: "Sir, please state your identity, otherwise I'll have to call security!"

Chapter 132 Cao, you're a real pervert

"Speak up, handsome, or you're finished," the blonde beauty said with a smile, leaning lightly against the doorframe as if victory was in her grasp.

Cao Gui: "..."

Where does this woman get her confidence?

Cao Gui raised his hand and slapped her face, then used his left hand to pull a silk scarf over her face.

"you……!"

The blonde woman's face changed drastically; the pungent smell assaulted her brain, and then her body went limp and she collapsed. Cao Gui's silk scarf had been soaked in ether, which could cause unconsciousness.

Cao Gui carried the woman into the storage room and quickly walked to the Declaration of Independence to unscrew it.

"So, what are we going to do with this woman later?" Harry asked.

"I don't know," Cao Gui said while unscrewing the screws. To be honest, he was also having a headache. If it were a man, he could just kill him or beat him into a vegetable... Hmm, I have an idea.

Cao Gui had a flash of inspiration and thought of something great: a Kingsman watch!

This thing contains an amnesia drug that causes short-term memory loss. After Galahad delivered the item to Cao Gui's residence, Cao Gui immediately put everything into his [System Backpack].

These things must contain listening devices and surveillance cameras, so although Cao Gui was very interested in them, he never used them. Now, they've finally come in handy.

Thinking this, Cao Gui had already unscrewed all the screws, successfully removed the genuine Declaration of Independence, put in a replica souvenir, and then put the screws back on.

"Hehe, perfect!"

Cao Gui walked up to the blonde beauty, took out his watch, switched it to amnesia mode, and then stuck a short needle into her neck.

"All done, let's go... wait a minute." Cao Gui suddenly stopped. What if the girl woke up, realized something was wrong, and then started checking?

"No, we have to distract her!" Cao Gui chuckled, took out a carton of plain yogurt, and sprinkled it on her hair and face, while also spraying some heather-scented perfume on it.

“…Damn, you’re a real pervert.” Harry couldn’t help but complain through the earpiece.

Cao Gui chuckled, then took off running.

“Why do you say that?” Gwen asked into the headset. “What did Cao do?”

“Same question. We’re heading back now. Let us take a look in a bit,” Beth said.

"Ahem, Harry!"

"Got it, you pervert," Harry said, then quickly deleted the video.
