"We Archanans possess the ability to perceive the past and the future…"
After entering the King's Building, Griffin proactively revealed his alien identity, and to enhance his credibility, he also took off the cotton cap on his head.
Under the cap was a transparent, sci-fi-like brain, from which sparks of wisdom occasionally flickered.
In short, just from the appearance of this brain, it was clear that Archanans possessed extremely high 'wisdom'.
"Alright, you have proven your identity, so what brings you to us this time?" Mike motioned for Griffin to continue.
"It's like this, over forty years ago, Boris the Animal came to my planet and violently destroyed our home. I, as the sole survivor, fled to Earth, which is a beautiful planet…" Griffin briefly described his escape experience, then said, "By observing the future, I saw that Boris the Animal is about to make a move on Earth. To prevent this equally beautiful planet from being destroyed like my home, I want to warn you to be careful of Boris. He will launch a sneak attack when you're off guard."
"Especially you, Mr. K." Griffin turned to Agent K and said seriously, "Thank you for capturing Boris, this intergalactic criminal, over forty years ago. However, I must warn you that in the future I saw, you will die by Boris's hand."
"…Perhaps, avoiding danger is your best choice."
At this moment, Griffin, due to being a "prophet," could see many fragments of the future.
However, these fragments were not continuous, which made him seem like a 'charlatan'.
"Thank you for the warning." After listening to Griffin, Agent K's expression did not fluctuate much, "It's just that this incident started because of me, and even if it costs my life, I will not stand idly by."
As the first generation legend of the MIB, Agent K had a very strong sense of mission. Compared to the safety of Earth, his own life was not as important.
"I understand." Griffin did not try to persuade him further, his gaze towards Agent K filled with reverence, "Of course, the future is not unchangeable. If you can always stay with Mr. Mike, perhaps you can avoid death."
"One 'force' overcomes all methods" described the current Mike.
As long as one's strength is sufficient, it is not impossible to artificially change certain outcomes.
"Oh, what did you see in me?" Mike saw Griffin looking at him and asked curiously.
"I regret to say, your future is beyond my perception range." Griffin shook his head honestly, saying, "But I have a premonition that you will be the hope of this calamity."
Clearly, while Archanans could predict the future, for some powerful beings, they were not 'omnipotent'.
This also explained why this miraculous race was ambushed and annihilated by Boris the Animal.
"Are you really not lying? Agent K will die by Boris's hand?" Agent J, on the other side, heard Griffin's words, which were utterly confusing, and asked unhappily, "Then help me predict, what will my future be like?"
It wasn't that Agent J was overly sensitive; it was just that there were too many aliens on Earth who engaged in deception.
And most importantly, Griffin had just spoken 'ill' of Agent K.
This was something Agent J could not tolerate.
"Your future…" Griffin heard this, turned to Agent J, and his eyes gradually became ethereal: "In the near future, you will meet the most important person in your life… This may be your only chance to remember them…"
Perhaps predicting the future was too draining; at this point, Griffin's body suddenly swayed a few times, and then he exited his previous state.
"The most important person to me?" Seeing Griffin's words still vague, Agent J complained discontentedly, "You really are a liar, so all your predictions are false…"
As he said this, Agent J unconsciously glanced at Agent K.
Although Agent J was unwilling to admit it, the person who had the greatest impact on his life was undoubtedly Agent K.
And Agent K was right in front of him, available to see whenever he wished, no need to wait for the future.
"Alright, Agent J. Griffin means no harm." Mike stopped Agent J, signaling him not to continue bothering Griffin.
Then he called the female housekeeper and had her bring Griffin, who was clearly not feeling well, a cup of sugared black tea.
"What are your plans after this?" Mike looked at Griffin, this 'talent'.
Although the other party's ability to predict the future had many limitations, if he could be kept in the King's Building, he would definitely be a very cost-effective 'alarm system'.
Mike probably wouldn't need him, but who knows if others around him might.
For example, the Vampire factory side, or the MIB side.
In short, an extra layer of protection was not a bad thing.
"I suppose I'll continue to wander; I don't have any specific goals." Griffin shook his head honestly.
After all, he was the only Archanan in the world, so it didn't make much difference to him where he stayed.
"How about staying with King Investment Group as a security consultant? The benefits are generous. And under normal circumstances, I won't restrict your freedom. You can even travel wherever you want, and the company can arrange it for you." Mike extended an invitation.
Given the size of King Investment Group, it wouldn't be a loss even if they kept Griffin as a leisurely person.
"I have no problem with that; it's all the same wherever I stay." Griffin thought for a moment and agreed to Mike's offer.
For him, joining Mike's faction was a form of self-protection.
Things went much more smoothly after that. After Mike arranged for the housekeeper to take Griffin to rest, he quietly gave Agent K and Agent J a knowing look and said, "You two should also pick a place to rest. If you need anything, you can call the housekeeper team. I still have to go accompany Regina and them, so I won't waste your time."
Although he didn't know what methods Boris the Animal had, Mike guessed that if he stayed with Agent K all the time, that intergalactic criminal would likely not appear.
So, appropriately revealing a 'flaw' was also a good method.
"Truly abandoning friends for a pretty face…" Agent J didn't understand the look Mike gave before leaving, so seeing him leave so irresponsibly, he couldn't help but complain a bit.
As for Agent K, the old fox, he completely understood Mike's intentions.
"Alright, we've been working all day; it's time to find a place to rest." To 'make it seem real', Agent K didn't explain too much to Agent J.
…
Meanwhile, in the shadows of a street corner not far from the King's Building, Boris the Animal, with a mouth full of sharp teeth, was silently observing the building.
At his feet, countless signal bugs, like spiders, were gathered densely.
"My chance has come!" After learning from the signal bugs that Agent K and Mike had separated, a cruel smile immediately appeared on Boris the Animal's face.
Since he wanted to wash away the humiliation he suffered over forty years ago, Boris had made thorough preparations for this 'revenge' operation.
This naturally included understanding Mike's strength.
So Boris's final plan was to avoid Mike, this powerful 'external aid', and directly seek revenge on Agent K.
There was no other way; Mike's past achievements were simply too formidable, and even someone as arrogant as Boris the Animal realized that even in his prime, he was no match for the other party.
In his helplessness, he could only choose to avoid the other party and prioritize his revenge.
