Chapter 298: Jerry's Decision (Third Update)

This way, even if someone was inside, it would be difficult to notice anything amiss, at most they would think the door was broken.

To be on the safe side, Jerry even used Magic to tamper with a few parts inside the lock. Any later inspection would only conclude that the lock malfunctioned.

This was because, through the recent Magic Mirror incident, Jerry realized just how cautious Nick Fury was, so he took extra care.

"Coulson is actually still alive, no wonder my identity was exposed!"

The moment Jerry entered the room and saw Coulson, he immediately understood that his real identity was most likely compromised. After overhearing the conversation between the two, his suspicions were confirmed.

The human brain is a mysterious entity. Even Obliviate cannot completely erase a person's memory; it can only seal it away.

When subjected to intense stimuli, this seal can be broken, rendering Obliviate ineffective.

In the video, Coulson was indeed killed by Thanos with a steel bar. Now that Nick Fury had somehow used unknown high-tech methods to revive him, Obliviate had undoubtedly failed.

After all, no stimulus is as strong as death itself!

"Should I use Obliviate on this guy again?"

Looking at Nick Fury, the invisible Jerry floating in the air fell into deep thought once more.

Nick Fury, who was leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, suddenly shivered.

"Am I catching a cold?"

After some thought, he decided to rest in the lounge. The negotiations with the Council had left him utterly exhausted.

"Better not!"

If he could avoid exposing his identity, it would be for the best. However, unless he killed everyone who knew his true identity, relying solely on Obliviate wouldn't guarantee his identity remained hidden.

These people, all high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, had undergone rigorous training or carried out special missions. It was difficult to ensure they wouldn't be triggered and recover their memories, just like Coulson.

So, using Obliviate on these high-ranking agents would only address the symptoms, not the root cause.

Moreover, since Nick Fury already knew, it meant that S.H.I.E.L.D.'s files on the Witch definitely contained records of his identity. By now, who knows how many people had already seen his file.

In short, it was too much trouble and not worth the effort.

Spending days erasing everyone's memory only for one agent to suddenly recover their memory would be a waste of time.

Jerry shook his head, used a Phantom Shift, and vanished from the spot.

In the past, he might have gone to great lengths to hide, extending the time as much as possible to build his strength.

But now, his power was such that he no longer needed to be overly cautious, at least not with an organization like S.H.I.E.L.D.

Additionally, the protective measures he had in place for his family were already quite robust. If anyone foolishly tried to use his family against him, they would be in for a nasty surprise.

Knowing that S.H.I.E.L.D. was aware of his true identity was enough for him.

In fact, it was better this way. With S.H.I.E.L.D. knowing his identity, he wouldn't have to waste energy trying to hide everything.

For instance, if S.H.I.E.L.D. accidentally discovered Has's mini-cannon or Aisha's Magic Mahjong and traced them back to his father and sister, they would likely drop the investigation.

There's one more thing. The current situation is that Nick Fury believes his little trick has fooled Jerry, thinking that Jerry doesn't know they've uncovered Jerry's true identity.

In reality, Jerry already knows that they know about his true identity, but they don't know that Jerry knows they know.

So, the one who truly knows everything is still Jerry himself.

The next morning, two teachers from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s admissions office visited again.

To their surprise, Jerry, who seemed somewhat interested yesterday, decisively refused today, citing the reason that S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy is in Washington, which is too far from home.

Jerry's parents, apparently, greatly respect Jerry's opinion and firmly supported Jerry's decision, no matter how much the teachers tried to persuade them.

There was nothing they could do, so they finally gave up.

"Well, New York University is right here in the city, so you can come back often when you have free time!"

After the two teachers from S.H.I.E.L.D. left, Has couldn't help but sigh.

S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy is indeed a great school, with guaranteed job placement and excellent salary and benefits after graduation. However, Has felt that attending New York University would be just as good for Jerry. It wouldn't be much different from when Jerry was in high school, as he could come home during breaks, and the family could be together.

So, since Jerry ultimately chose New York University, they fully supported his decision.

...

After lunch, Jerry was about to continue reading when the hidden magic mirror around his waist emitted a signal.

"Huh, Thor is looking for me!"

Seeing Thor, who hadn't contacted him for a while, suddenly reaching out, Jerry was surprised.

Returning to his room and opening the magic mirror, Jerry saw a somewhat haggard Thor in the mirror.

"Jerry, do you have time to come over for a drink?"

"Of course!"

As the son of Odin and the future King of Asgard, Jerry felt he could spare some time to be a listener.

Besides, Thor, despite being a bit dim-witted, has many good qualities and makes a great friend.

Jerry believed that if he ever had a conflict with S.H.I.E.L.D., Thor would definitely stand firmly on his side, while the others were uncertain.

On a street in New York, Manhattan, Thor sat haggardly, chugging beer. As people passed by, some would take photos of him with their phones, or children might approach for an autograph.

After the Battle of New York, Thor's appearance was fully exposed, so he no longer hid it. When he was bored, he often wandered around this area, and people had grown accustomed to it.

After a spatial fluctuation, Jerry appeared beside Thor.

"What's wrong, this isn't like you at all!"

Jerry, who had arrived via the magic mirror, smiled, patted Thor's shoulder, and sat across from him.

In Jerry's eyes, Thor was usually quite cheerful and loved showing off his testosterone. Seeing him in this sulky state was rare.

Thor handed Jerry a bottle of beer.

"Ah, I had an argument with Jane. I'll be heading back to Asgard soon, and if you need to go to Asgard in the near future, I won't be able to take you. If you want to go, you can call out to Heimdall. I've already spoken to him, and he'll use the Bifrost to bring you."
