Due to the nature of their work, the Men in Black agents actually face immense pressure.
Agent K, who has worked for the organization his entire life, certainly has the right to enjoy his remaining years in peace, just like any other elderly person.
Knowing that all "legends" eventually come to an end, Mr. Z grieved for a while over the impending departure of his old friend before suddenly speaking up: "After Agent K retires, could we consider a young man named MJ for his vacancy..."
"They've been harassing me about my MIB agent status for years."
As mentioned earlier, the agents in the Men in Black organization are selected through internal talent screening.
But there are exceptions. For example, both Mike and James got their spots through recommendations.
Now, a young man named MJ, somehow learned about the existence of the Men in Black organization. He then became obsessed with becoming an agent within the Men in Black organization—Agent M.
“I know something about that young man you mentioned. I think he’s more talented in singing and dancing than in becoming an agent for the organization…” Although Ms. O didn’t say it explicitly, her refusal was very clear.
……
Chapter 380 X Team Assembles
Mike, having received his new mission, soon gathered his team members at his villa.
On the one hand, we need to inform them of the plan to target the vampires in ten days or so; on the other hand, we also need to check on the team members' training results and current situation.
"John, how is Helen? Can the doctor handle her condition?" Mike, sitting at the head of the table with a cup of black tea, looked at John in the living room with gentle eyes.
More than a month has passed, and the disheveled former professional hitman seems to have rediscovered hope for life.
At this moment, he was wearing a well-tailored suit, and his specially groomed beard was very neat and stylish, which made him look exceptionally energetic and completely different from his previous dejected demeanor.
“Thank you for your concern. Helen is doing well, and her condition is under control… but…” John’s spirits lifted upon hearing the question, and he became very respectful to Mike.
But the expression on his face suggested that he seemed to have something he couldn't say.
"What, the guys I recommended to you couldn't completely solve Helen's problem?" Mike frowned slightly, his tone somewhat dissatisfied.
Of course, this dissatisfaction was not directed at John, but at another group of people.
It's worth noting that among the doctors Mike recommended to Helen were Sean (the genius doctor in "The Good Doctor"), Henry Morgan (the legendary doctor who lived to be over two hundred years old in "Forever"), Meredith Grey (the absolute protagonist of "Grey's Anatomy"), and Greg House (the eccentric but truly capable Dr. House in "House").
These people may be unknown or troubled, but undeniably, they are all "great" doctors with exceptional skills.
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be difficult for these people to gather together and cure Helen's illness.
“No, the people you recommended are all very capable. Dr. House and Dr. Sean have already come up with a treatment for Helen…” Seeing Mike’s emotional fluctuation, John quickly explained.
It must be said that John is a seasoned veteran; among a group of great doctors, he picked out two "good" doctors who had the best medical skills and the fewest problems.
"Is it a matter of money?" After identifying his target, Mike quickly understood John's dilemma.
First of all, Dr. Sean should have just graduated from medical school. Because of his autism, it would probably be difficult for him to even find a job as an intern.
So the problem doesn't lie with this novice who has strong spatial simulation abilities.
The problem must lie with House, that old fox.
This eccentric Dr. House is best at treating patients while intentionally or unintentionally ripping them off.
For him, treating Helen's illness was not difficult. His reason for making things difficult for John was probably because he saw an opportunity in him.
Yes, due to his personality, Dr. House's private practice rarely receives sponsorship for medical research.
In this situation, John, dressed in an expensive suit and with a very earnest and anxious attitude, approached him, making him seem like a "big fat sheep".
After confirming that he could cure Helen, it wouldn't be surprising if House did something outrageous.
After all, the other party simply doesn't have any integrity.
“Go tell Dr. House, one million! This is my personal initial research funding for him. If he wants more, we’ll see how he performs next.” Having figured out the key point, Mike gave John the direct instruction.
I'm not afraid of the other party's ambition, I'm afraid of the other party's incompetence.
Mike is now considering forming his own medical team. Although he himself may not need it, who can guarantee that the people around him won't get sick sometimes?
Moreover, if Dr. House can actually develop something that benefits the public, Mike wouldn't mind helping him start a medical company.
It benefits the people and makes money at the same time, which is a win-win situation.
“One million is too much. Helen and I have already received too much from you. We can’t use your money anymore.” John, determined to be loyal to Mike, had learned to consider things from his boss’s perspective.
"Just convey my message to Dr. House and Dr. Sean. There's no need for further explanation." Mike didn't intend to explain anything further, and finally added, "Also, tell Dr. House to treat Helen properly."
"On behalf of Helen, I thank you for your care, boss~" After things were settled, John expressed his family's gratitude.
Judging from his current state, even if Mike asked him to do something right now, he would probably do it without hesitation.
This situation also greatly shocked Wesley, who was secretly watching from the sidelines.
Because of Mike's request, Wesley, who had been learning gunfighting with John under Carlos (Cross) during this time, became acquainted with John.
This was the first time he had ever known that the "cool guy" who always had a cold expression could also be so interested.
On the other hand, Carlos (the cross), who is both Wesley's teacher and the other's father, is much calmer than his son.
How could this former top assassin of the League of Assassins, who had experienced many ups and downs and been betrayed multiple times, not see through Mike's unintentional methods of winning people's hearts?
People get wiser with age!
But so what if they can tell?
Carlos's situation wasn't much better than John's.
Mike also gave him a chance to start anew, allowing him to have a family again and to walk in the sunlight once more.
This was something Carlos never dared to dream of before.
After giving his son, who was making a fuss, a discreet glare, the old fox withdrew the strange look from his eyes and resumed his sitting posture with his eyes fixed straight ahead.
Mike, who had been observing everything below, curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Alright, everyone, relax, don't be so formal~" Mike smiled and then looked at Carlos: "How's your training plan going lately?"
Adrenaline secretion can be considered a talent, but some individuals can gradually control it through systematic training.
The prerequisite for practicing gun-fu is to first learn to control the secretion of adrenaline.
While for Mike, the adrenaline rush provides the primary boost to his combat abilities, making gunfighting skills almost irrelevant. However, for ordinary people with superhuman physiques, the adrenaline-fueled gunfighting skills are what truly deliver a devastating advantage.
To put it simply, John, who is already an expert gunner, would see his combat power increase exponentially if he learned gun-fu.
Taking everything into account, I could easily defeat five or six of my previous opponents.
“Wesley has basically mastered the knack of gunfighting. As for John, he can already make bullets curve slightly, and it’s only a matter of time before he completely masters gunfighting.” Carlos knew what Mike wanted to hear, so he told him about the training results.
"Congratulations, John! You're a genius." After hearing the report, Mike offered John his heartfelt congratulations.
If you can make a bullet curve slightly, it proves that you can learn gun-fu.
This is the dividing line between "mediocrity" and "greatness".
Therefore, this initial step is extremely important, and it is also the key step that determines whether John can become the "King of Assassins".
"It's all I should do," John said, remaining very restrained in the face of praise.
However, the slight ripples in his eyes revealed that he was in a good mood.
After all, he had to take care of Helen, help her contact a doctor, and learn gunfighting all at the same time. Managing his time effectively was no easy task.
John is now satisfied with keeping his boss happy.
After offering John a few more words of encouragement, Mike finally turned his attention to Wesley.
Compared to his previous energetic self, Wesley is now much more composed.
“Your progress is also very good, Wesley. After next month’s mission is over, I’ll give you a long vacation. Take a good rest, and given your current situation, maybe you could try to find a beautiful girlfriend…” Mike encouraged with a smile.
"Thanks, boss. I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" Wesley, who had been a little nervous, suddenly became full of energy.
He was only twenty-five years old after all. He had struggled for most of his life, but now he had skills to rely on and a boss to pay him. His future was bright.
He was already considering where to go for a long holiday to indulge in a life of luxury and pleasure.
As for the wicked woman Firefox, whom he had once fantasized about? Who is that! He doesn't know her.
Men, once they have money, what can't they have?
It can be said that Wesley, after this period of self-adjustment, has already broadened his horizons.
Mike didn't talk much with Wesley, but turned to ask Carlos (the cross) a few questions before getting to the main topic of the gathering.
"Tina, tell everyone about the situation in Queens~"
As Mike spoke, everyone's gaze turned to the beautiful woman sitting quietly in the corner.
Now, Mike's X-Team structure has taken initial shape. John, who has learned basic gunfighting, along with Carlos and his son, who also know gunfighting, form the three of them in a combat formation.
Tina, who is skilled at gathering intelligence, is the team's intelligence operative.
As for Nidice, who had been silent with a cold expression, she could act as Mike's bodyguard while also serving as a combatant.
Not counting Mike, his X-Team already has five members, each with exceptional abilities.
At the same time, while Mike was holding a small meeting with his team, Regina and several other girls, or rather Mike's support group, were also having a small meeting in a side room separated from the living room by a corridor.
Of course, there is one very special person among them, and that is Peggy.
Compared to the other girls, her relationship with Mike didn't seem that "close".
It's worth noting that, apart from Peggy, the other girls were all "comrades-in-arms" who had "used" the same gun.
Chapter 381 The Ladies
Thanks to Mike's involvement, the three girls from the "Devil Body Group" have gradually stabilized their positions within the "Legend" company.
The girls' latest hot album, released last summer, also achieved very good sales results because of its style and the fact that Mike himself produced the title track.
In addition, the girls spent nearly two months doing promotional appearances and other events offline.
This led to their second transformative album selling over 500,000 copies in a short period of time.
This achievement may still be far behind that of top superstars like MJ and Elvis, but it barely reaches the level of a top-tier celebrity.
In fact, because of the girls' sweet appearance, they are just as popular as superstars in certain circles.
The girls felt a great sense of accomplishment from their career success and popularity.
Just as they came to share the good news with Mike, they discovered that Mike had another beautiful woman by his side after some time apart.
This person was Tina, the intelligence agent in Mike's team.
A woman who is beautiful, has a great figure, and is capable.
Under the immense threat of her home being burgled, Regina, this big-breasted but brainless woman, finally showed some intelligence for once.
Having a clear understanding of herself, she chose to contact her "comrades-in-arms" on the same front to block the external enemy.
Peggy, a bright but still immature young girl, was considered a non-threatening person by Regina and was naturally brought in to serve as her "strategist".
At this moment, in the side hall on the second floor of the villa, there were exactly seven girls, excluding Tina and Peggy.
Here I have to commend Regina's interpersonal skills, or rather, her organizational skills.
But she seemed to have forgotten that three women make a drama, let alone seven beautiful women with outstanding looks.
"To prevent Mike from being seduced by those flashy, cheap women outside, I propose that we temporarily form an external defense team." The oblivious Regina, unaware of the gravity of the situation, blurted out, "I've already thought of a name for the team: how about '**Stick Guard Team'? Since I initiated it, I'll be the captain too. Does everyone agree?"
Regina, with her stunning figure and experience as a team leader, seems very confident about becoming the captain of the **Best Guard Team.
"**Bang? Are you sure we want such a tacky name?" Jesse, dressed in a professional suit, who looked both beautiful and capable, raised her objection.
At this moment, she still had a look of disgust on her face.
Having already developed a "queen-like" demeanor since entering the workplace, she frankly looked down on the three girls in the group with their amazing figures, including Regina.
In her eyes, the three girls in the "Devil Body Group" were all immature and nothing more than pretty faces who only knew how to please others.
Her objection this time wasn't about the group protecting the bat, but rather about Regina.
It can be described as targeting the person rather than the issue.
“Then do you have any better suggestions?” Regina asked back, unaware of the deeper meaning in Jesse’s eyes.
"**The **Bad Guard Team** is too blatant..." Jesse said, "Our goal is to protect Mike, so let's call it Mike's Support Team, or simply Support Team. It's simple and clear."
"A support group? That works too, it's all the same thing." Regina thought for a moment and indicated that she had no objection.
