Nick Fury's Attention

Meanwhile, Nick Fury rubbed his brow after the Grim Reaper agreed to meet him, trying to calm his excited yet nervous feelings.

"Sir, when are we going? The day after tomorrow?"

"Based on our projections, he's most likely male, right?"

"Should we bring Agent Natasha along?"

Phil Coulson, who had been standing by, inquired about the situation.

Few people knew about the plan to contact the mercenary codenamed Grim Reaper, but Agent Natasha was one of them.

If this Grim Reaper truly was a superpowered individual as they suspected, Director Fury hoped to recruit him into the Avengers Initiative.

However, the meeting alone would cost twenty million US dollars, an outrageously high price, so they were determined to make it happen.

"You can come with me."

"Agent Natasha is still investigating Harvey Anberaka, so we don't need to call her for now."

Nick Fury tapped his fingers on the table, considering before giving his instructions.

Harvey Anberaka was also someone they were keeping an eye on, due to their investigation into this young, wealthy individual who had suddenly appeared in the last two years.

In the past, Harvey Anberaka was an orphan of Asian descent whose parents had both passed away.

As an Asian person in America, he would have received some benefits, but also faced discrimination and cold treatment from those around him.

Based on his past experiences, Harvey Anberaka could be considered an unfortunate soul, with no apparent issues.

However, when Harvey Anberaka turned nineteen, he suddenly won a ten-million-dollar lottery. After paying five-point-seven million dollars in taxes, he used the remaining four-point-three million dollars to invest in Zero Technologies, becoming one of its shareholders.

Subsequently, many people continued to invest in Zero Technologies, consistently providing Harvey Anberaka with dividends.

Using the money from these dividends, Harvey Anberaka began venturing into real estate and the stock market. He seemed to possess foresight, never making a wrong move; whatever he bought would increase in value.

In less than three years, at the young age of twenty-one, Harvey Anberaka had transformed into a well-known young tycoon in New York, his net worth multiplying several hundredfold to over four billion dollars.

With mansions, luxury cars, and designer watches, he had it all. This was also why, despite being Asian, Harvey Anberaka was favored by countless young and beautiful women in New York.

Given that Harvey Anberaka had not committed any crimes and consistently paid his taxes, the higher-ups saw no need for a deeper investigation.

Under normal circumstances, Harvey Anberaka would simply be considered a lucky individual who stumbled upon immense fortune, winning a multi-million dollar lottery five times and reaching the pinnacle of life.

His rise to prominence was incredibly rapid. If not for the knowledge of aliens existing beyond Earth, and the possibility of other superpowered individuals hidden on Earth, Nick Fury might have simply viewed Harvey Anberaka as a lucky person upon reviewing his profile.

However, Harvey Anberaka's miraculous turnaround, coupled with his later uncanny, almost prophetic insight into investments and the stock market, and his unusually large appetite, which meant his regular dining expenses were beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Despite this, when Harvey Anberaka appeared in public, he presented himself as a lavish young millionaire with an exceptionally good appetite.

This led Nick Fury to decide to send Natasha to investigate.

Direct action was out of the question. For such a high-profile taxpayer, without any criminal activity on Harvey Anberaka's part, S.H.I.E.L.D. had no authority to directly bypass the FBI for arrest or detention.

However, if Natasha's interactions with Harvey Anberaka revealed that he indeed possessed some unusual superpowers, they would greatly hope to recruit him, as crises threatening Earth could arise at any time.

"But I heard Agent Natasha's work hasn't been going smoothly."

"It feels like a waste of time, and she's a bit down right now," Phil Coulson said, knowing what Agent Natasha was tasked with.

Normally, with Agent Natasha's beauty, it wouldn't be difficult for her to infiltrate the lives of successful men.

Harvey Anberaka also owned villas and estates, so logically, he would hire a butler or secretary to manage them.

But Harvey Anberaka hadn't done so, showing no intention of hiring a butler or secretary.

Harvey Anberaka usually stayed within his private estate, and no one knew what he was doing.

Fortunately, Harvey Anberaka frequented various restaurants and hotels to enjoy fine dining.

However, this also presented uncertainty, as Harvey Anberaka was not picky about where he ate. He could visit any restaurant, sometimes patronizing the same place repeatedly, or suddenly appearing at a small stall in Chinatown.

After eating, Harvey Anberaka would return home directly, only occasionally bringing very beautiful women to spend the night with.

As a result, Agent Natasha had been staking out various restaurants for half a month without managing to meet Harvey Anberaka.

Although Agent Natasha would use her charm to entice men to achieve her objectives, if she couldn't even meet him, there was no question of seduction.

"Then I'll trouble you, Coulson... No, I'll deliver the message to her myself."

Nick Fury, hearing that Natasha was feeling down due to fruitless efforts, felt a headache coming on. After some thought, he agreed with Coulson.

Moreover, with Natasha present, if negotiations failed, she could provide additional security.

Nick Fury then sent a message to Natasha, instructing her to temporarily halt her current work, take a day off, and meet them the day after tomorrow at a building on the outskirts of Washington.

Meanwhile.

Natasha, having just finished a day of tedious work as a waitress, returned to the room she was temporarily renting. Seeing this message, her irritable mood improved slightly.

For the past half month, she had been working at various restaurants as a waitress, all in the hope of waiting for Harvey Anberaka to appear.

However, she hadn't managed to cross paths with Harvey Anberaka even once.

Natasha was even considering changing her strategy, planning to infiltrate and approach him after receiving information about his target locations.

While this approach would be quick, it also had a drawback: it was very easy to arouse suspicion.

Why couldn't Harvey Anberaka host some grand party, inviting all sorts of friends and beautiful women?

Or perhaps attend a gala or party hosted by a well-known figure.

That would give her plenty of opportunities to blend in and officially meet Harvey Anberaka.

However, it was common for targets not to act according to one's wishes, so Natasha adjusted her mood and went to sleep comfortably.

As for why Nick Fury had asked her to meet, she didn't overthink it; she would understand when the time came.
