Ant-Man's Release from Prison

A Chaos space, devoid of color and time, Xia Yu stood there blankly, not knowing where he was.

Sudden...

A pair of enormous eyes appeared in the sky, staring lifelessly at Xia Yu.

Xia Yu tried to attack those eyes, but he had no energy left in his body and couldn't summon any Aether.

Xia Yu could only run and run desperately, but those eyes were like the moon in the sky; no matter how fast you ran, they were always above you.

As Xia Yu ran, he felt the earth begin to tremble, the tremors growing stronger and stronger. The Chaos beneath his feet began to crack, transforming into a bottomless abyss...

Ah!~!

Xia Yu screamed and woke up from her dream.

"What's wrong, darling?"

Natasha turned on the bedside lamp and looked at Xia Yu with concern.

"It's nothing, just a nightmare."

Xia Yu wiped the cold sweat from his face.

"Then you must have dreamed about an earthquake."

Natasha took a vibrating phone from under Xia Yu's pillow and said with a bright smile.

"That bastard Nick Fury not only doesn't have sex, he doesn't even need to sleep."

Xia Yu cursed under his breath, then answered the phone in a huff.

"If you don't give me a reason, I swear I'll use Aether to rip open your ass."

Xia Yu hates answering the phone in the middle of the night, whether it's Tony or Nick Fury.

"How could you kiss Natasha with such a dirty mouth?"

Nick was quite pleased with his retort after his last confrontation with Captain America.

"A one-eyed old man like you who has never had sex wouldn't know how to kiss a woman. You're only fit to use a vibrator to comfort your own anus. So, what's the matter in the middle of the night?"

Xia Yu's mouth is incredibly foul in the middle of the night.

"Although you're one of my bosses now, you can't blame me for this phone call tonight. The prisoner you had me monitoring has been released. You said you'd notify me immediately upon his release. You should give me a raise instead of swearing at me."

There was a lot of background noise around Nick Fury, so he was probably still working late into the night.

"A prisoner? What prisoner got out of jail in the middle of the night?" Xia Yu suddenly seemed to realize something.

"You mean Scott Lang?" Xia Yu suddenly perked up. Ant-Man was out of prison?

"That's right, he was actually released from prison this afternoon. I just got the news. You know, I have a lot of work to do, and I really don't have time to keep an eye on a thief, even though he's kind of... um... a Robin Hood-like figure."

Nick thought for a moment and gave Ant-Man an adjective.

Xia Yu rubbed his head and remained silent for a moment. "Let's keep a close watch on things for now. Remember to notify me of any changes, but not in the middle of the night."

"As you wish, my boss. Sweet dreams to you and Natasha." Nick hung up the phone immediately after saying that, knowing that Xia Yu's next words would definitely not be pleasant.

"How did you manage to work for such a jerk of a boss for so many years?" Xia Yu turned to ask Natasha.

"Because I had nowhere else to go before I met you, darling." Natasha lay down, turned over, and continued sleeping.

Xia Yu lay down as well, recalling the storyline of Ant-Man.

The Quantum Realm is an absolute game-changer, and Xia Yu certainly can't afford to give it up. The only obstacle is Dr. Pym's hatred for the Stark Family.

In the movie, he preferred to have a novice like Scott Lang take on such a huge risk of failure rather than go to the Avengers.

It seems ironic that Iron Man's Armor is just flashy, high-tech stuff.

This is an extremely stubborn old man whose only weaknesses, besides his daughter, are rescuing the First-Generation Wasp trapped in the Quantum Realm.

However, it seems the Avengers can't offer any help on this matter for the time being; neither Tony nor Shuri have ever been involved in this area.

Lost in thought, Xia Yu fell asleep again.

This time I didn't dream, and the night passed without incident.

For the next period of time, Nick Fury deployed an entire team to monitor Scott Lang around the clock. Not only him, but also his cellmate and roommate were under close surveillance.

Agent Hill was baffled by Nick Fury's actions, after all, they were just a few petty thieves.

Although Scott Lang breached one of the world's best security systems—at least on the surface—it wasn't enough to warrant such tight surveillance from these people.

However, as the surveillance progressed and Agent Hill learned more about Scott Lang, and through further investigations into his various lateral relationships, he sensed something was amiss.

Scott Lang seems to be under someone's surveillance.

Someone set a trap for him, asking him to steal something. Of course, this wouldn't be a big deal for the current Avengers intelligence organization, or even the former S.H.I.E.L.D..

However, the person who set up the trap was no ordinary person; the renowned Dr. Pym, a veteran of S.H.I.E.L.D.. and a super scientist no less capable than Howard Stark.

What others don't know is that S.H.I.E.L.D.. used to have his information inside, and that he and his missing wife were both former Hero, Ant-Man and the Wasp.

Hill became interested.

She seemed to understand why Xia Yu was interested in Scott Lang.

Are you planning to let him join the Avengers?

When Hill reported the situation, he asked Xia Yu directly.

"Oh, it seems our beautiful Agent Hill has made a new discovery. Has Dr. Pym already approached him?"

Xia Yu said calmly that after absorbing four cosmic gems, there were some things he wasn't afraid to let everyone know. He said that he could vaguely see some aspects of fate or the future. On the contrary, Thor had also demonstrated this, and the witch also had some mysterious abilities to a certain extent.

"It's not just that they've approached him; it feels like Dr. Pym has chosen him as his successor, the second Ant-Man?" Agent Hill asked uncertainly.

"It seems S.H.I.E.L.D.. really knew a lot before. Let's keep an eye on him and see what he's capable of."

Just as Xia Yu was about to hang up the phone, Hill asked Xia Yu another question.

"I find it strange. We're the Avengers' intelligence agency; in other words, we're your eyes and ears. How did you know so much in advance? You had us watching Scott Lang while he was in prison."

Xia Yu laughed heartily, "You really want to know?"

Agent Hill said to Xia Yu very seriously, "As an intelligence agent, I'm very interested to know how you found out and what channels you used. You know, this is my job."

"There is indeed a channel you've forgotten. It's very simple and easy to use. Are you sure you want to know?" Xia Yu said seriously.

"Of course." Agent Hill nodded, holding his phone, very seriously.

"I can tell you, but I'm not obligated to teach you how to work, am I? That's Nick's responsibility. I can't give it all away for nothing. The best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown, I'll order."

Xia Yu stated his requirements.

"Okay, but only you and Natasha, no one else is allowed." Hill agreed, but there was a limit on the number of people; heaven knows how expensive the food at Chinese restaurants is.

"Deal! Listen carefully," Xia Yu said.

"Yes, I'm listening."

"Google search 'Predict the future' and enter Scott Lang's name."

Xia Yu deliberately slowed down his speech before finishing quickly and immediately hung up the phone.

"Xia, you're a damn bastard." Agent Hill slammed her phone onto the table.

There will be another chapter later!
