The Martial God of the Marvel World

Chapter 208 Nick Becomes Suspicious
Skye finally chose to leave the United States because she wanted to find out about her parents and couldn't stay in New York. As for the pursuit, she thought she could handle it. And if she wanted to reach the tenth level, she would have to fight.

After Skye left, Natasha asked curiously, "You sit here all day, how do you know that Skye is not colluding with aliens? It seems that you also know who opened the space gate?"

"Not only do I know, many people know. Your Chief Garrett also knows." Zhan Liu took a sip of tea, leisurely whetting her appetite, "As for the reason, I will tell you after you reach the tenth level."

Natasha rolled her eyes beautifully and turned to walk out.

After leaving the martial arts gym, Natasha took out her cell phone, called Nick Fury, and reported to him what she had just heard.

Nick was silent for a while, then said, "Since Garrett took over, his behavior has indeed been a little strange. I plan to investigate. But it's a pity that you can't leave. I'll go find Clint."

After Nick hung up the phone, Natasha called Director Garrett again and reported her work.

John was much more sensible and immediately said that he would slow down the pursuit of Skye. But when Natasha vaguely mentioned the opening of the space gate, John hesitated and said:

"We now have reason to suspect that Asgard's little prince Loki played some dishonorable role in this incident. However, due to the diplomatic issues between the two countries, we can only act according to the 'evidence'."

After hanging up the phone, Natasha sat in the car in a daze.

What John said made a lot of sense, but as a person who walked in the dark, Natasha only believed three-quarters of what he said.

Captain America's solo show seemed to be a completely accidental incident to outsiders, with no trace to be found. However, in the eyes of agents of Natasha and Nick's level, they could see obvious signs of manipulation.

But as we all know, if you want to manipulate something, you must do a lot of preliminary preparation. It is impossible to face unexpected events and then perfectly transform them into results that are beneficial to you.

In other words, SHIELD was well prepared for the alien invasion.

When Nick was in charge of S.H.I.E.L.D., although he often did shady things, his ultimate goal was good, for world peace. But when John became the director, he did things like supporting Captain America in the presidential election.

If Captain America's running for president might be because he deeply loves America and wants to make America a better place, then this alien invasion is purely to pave the way for Captain America's election.

There are many ways to win votes, and Natasha doesn't object to SHIELD using its superior resources in the media to support Steve, but this behavior of putting the entire New York City in danger is definitely not SHIELD's style. Moreover, she feels very familiar with this style of doing things.

After thinking through the whole story, Natasha started the car and left the martial arts town.

Based on the information Leiden left on the dark web, Skye successfully found Leiden's hiding place.

After Leiden opened the door, he peeked in, looked around, and then let Skye in.

"I've been so worried these days, I was always afraid something might happen to you! I shouldn't have let you go back in the first place, and now you've been wrongly accused like this!"

"It's no use. Even if I don't go back, I can't escape responsibility for the carjacking. SHIELD will still suspect that I'm a traitor colluding with aliens."

"So what should we do now? We can't stay here for long, otherwise the news will definitely leak out."

"Don't worry, I've seen Master. We just need to leave America as soon as possible. No one will come to hunt me down during this time. Master believes that I'm not the one who opened the space portal, but..."

Skye sighed, spread his hands and shrugged, "He refused to tell me who did it, and asked me to reach the tenth level of magnetic field rotation before returning to him."

"Huh?" Leiden was stunned, thought for a moment and said, "The person who framed you must be a guy with a background, or simply a powerful organization, otherwise he would not be so cautious."

"Have you read that box of information? Have you found any news about my parents?"

"I did find it, but... you have to be mentally prepared." "What mental preparation? Forget it, let's talk while we walk, let's leave here first and go to Mexico."

The two got into the car with the documents prepared by Leiden. Leiden drove while Skye sat in the passenger seat and looked through the file.

The file was very thin, and Skye finished reading it quickly. She closed the file and threw it on her lap. She rubbed her forehead with her hand and lamented, "So, I'm not actually a human, but a child of the devil, similar to Hellboy?"

Leiden had been watching Skye out of the corner of his eye. Seeing this, he quickly comforted her, "Well... Actually, if you think positively, you are more likely to be a villager's child. After all, your skin is not red. Moreover, if your parents were the murderers of the village tragedy at that time, they should have come to your door long ago after so many years."

He asked with concern: "Do you want to continue investigating?"

Skye sighed, hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Let's investigate further. Even though my parents may have died in that tragedy, I still want to pay my respects."

“Then we have to go to China.”

"It just so happens that we are about to leave the United States, so going to China is not bad."

"But you're still wanted. Is it okay to go there?"

"What does the wanted warrant issued by the Americans have to do with the Chinese?"

"Okay, you have a point."

Accompanied by the sounds of bickering, the two men and the car disappeared into the vast night.

Somewhere in Los Angeles, a brown-skinned cheongsam beauty was walking gracefully into a private clinic carrying a suitcase.

The environment here is simple, there is not even a sterile room, and the operating room is separated by a simple curtain. A man is lying on the operating table, and the doctor is removing the bullet from his chest. Two burly men who look like gangsters are standing at the door of the operating room, watching eagerly.

Seeing the cheongsam woman coming in, the white doctor put down the instruments in his hands, ignored the ongoing operation, and looked eagerly at the box in the woman's hand.

"Hey, doctor, the operation here isn't over yet!" The gangster reached out to pull the doctor in dissatisfaction.

"No, it's over!" A fierce light flashed in the doctor's eyes, and a scalpel slipped from his sleeve into his hand. He quickly turned around and made a few cuts, then turned back to look at the suitcase in the woman's hand.

Behind him, two gangster brothers and the gangster boss on the operating table, all covered the wounds on their necks and fell to the ground twitching.

The woman ignored what was happening in front of her, placed the suitcase on the table, opened it, and pushed it over.

"Here, the obelisk you asked for!"

Inside the box was a strange stone tablet-like object with a square bottom and a pointed head, with strange patterns flashing on it from time to time.

"Well done! Lena!" The doctor stretched out his hand excitedly and gently stroked the obelisk.

"With the obelisk, your dream can finally come true, and I can find my daughter. She must have suffered a lot over the years..."

The doctor's eyes were filled with tears as he lost himself in memories.
