Chapter 535 Skye
Coulson was now somewhat curious about Smith Doyle's purpose. Was it Skye in front of him?

Smith Doyle looked at Coulson and said:
"Is there a problem with this lady?"

Coulson explained:

“She is Skye, a member of the Rising Tide organization, who have recently been stirring up and exposing some things on the internet.”

Skye quickly explained:

"I'm just stating the facts..."

Sensing something was wrong, Skye quickly covered her mouth, while Ward and Coulson spoke at the same time:
"It seems it really was you who did it."

Smith Doyle asked curiously:

"What did she do?"

Coulson handed the tablet to Smith Doyle and played the video on it.

After watching the video, Smith Doyle said:
"There were indeed some malicious speculations and attempts to incite public opinion, but many of them are also true."

"But I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic about collecting stones."

Coulson smiled and then said:
"After all, nobody wants to miss the next opportunity."

Skye listened to their conversation with curiosity; it seemed that there were secrets hidden inside the stone that she didn't know.

Smith nodded, then looked at Skye and said:
"I've also heard of the Rising Tide organization; they've always operated in a gray area."

"The danger level is not high in the Assassin's Guild's rating system, so it is not on the priority list for elimination."

"But there are still some problems with your principles."

"The public has the right to know, but that doesn't mean they have to know everything. Intelligence is also valuable."

“Some things, once revealed, will only bring panic and disaster, so it’s important to strike a balance.”

Ward couldn't help but complain at this point:

"Sir, I had a mission before that almost failed because of the Tide Organization's messing around and spreading information everywhere."

Coulson nodded in agreement:

"Ward nearly lost his life on that mission."

Coulson added insult to injury:
"And not all members of the Rising Tide organization are in it for the sake of information disclosure and transparency; many of them are in it to sell intelligence."

Skye immediately retorted:

"Impossible. We are all working for our ideals and our mission. How could we possibly sell intelligence?"

Ward began by saying:
"Sir, these are all documented with intelligence records; we would never lie to you."

Skye fell silent upon hearing Ward's words.

At this point, Coulson added insult to injury:
“You told your boyfriend Miles, who was also in the organization, about Mike and the centipede, and he immediately sold the information for $30.”

Skye stood up excitedly and said:

"This is impossible."

Coulson pulled up another video and then said:
"This is footage of our staff arresting him, and also the extra $300,000 in his bank account."

"By the way, he himself has already confessed and admitted it without hesitation."

Skye slumped into her chair, deeply shocked by the outcome. She hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

Seeing that things had progressed to a point, Smith Doyle spoke up:
“I don’t care about those things; S.H.I.E.L.D. has dedicated agents to handle them.” “I came here to confirm some things with you.”

Skye, who are your parents?

Upon hearing this question, Skye paused for a moment, then spoke:
"I do not know either."

"And my foster families change every now and then, so I don't know if they can be considered my foster parents."

Smith-Doyle continued:
"So you're currently an orphan and don't know your parents, right?"

Skye nodded:

"Yes, I am an orphan. I have been searching for information about my origins, but I have not found any."

"But I believe that one day I will find useful information and know who my parents are."

Coulson and Ward exchanged a glance; they were also investigating Skye's intelligence.

Smith Doyle then spoke:
"I was asked to help her find her missing daughter."

"Based on some intelligence, we found you here. There is a high probability that you are the other party's missing daughter."

Skye paused for a moment, then asked incredulously:
"Is she really my mother?"

Smith Doyle did not confirm but instead spoke:
"That's possible, but we need to confirm the specifics."

Skye had searched for countless years without any news, but today she unexpectedly heard some information from her idol. Excitedly, she asked:

"Can I meet her?"

Smith Doyle nodded and said:
"Come with me, but it will take a few days. Once I've finished what I'm doing, I can take you to see her."

Smith Doyle stood up, looked at Coulson, and then said:
"Let's leave Skye's matter here for now. I believe she won't have any deep connections with the Rising Tide organization later."

Upon hearing that Smith Doyle had spoken, Coulson immediately added:
"Okay, sir."

Watching Smith Doyle take Skye away, Coulson looked at Ward and joked:
"Ward, you bomb disposal expert, you have this side to you."

Ward, who had been standing to the side, spoke up:
"Sir, that's the Inspector General."

"The strongest man on Earth, a god among men, is the man I admire most."

Coulson nodded in agreement. Smith Doyle not only attracted female agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but many male agents also eagerly signed up for Smith Doyle's oversight department. However, it is said that the oversight department, which had been dormant for more than a year, has started to operate again.

"I wonder who Skye's mother is. To be connected to Smith Doyle, she must be at least a superhuman."

Ward asked curiously:
"But according to our tests, Skye's combat power is only 5 points, which means she is obviously an ordinary person."

Coulson shrugged:

"Who knows? Maybe they haven't awakened yet, or maybe they haven't inherited it."

“After all, anyone who can still get Smith Doyle’s help these days is definitely not an ordinary person.”

“However, Skye’s matter is no longer our responsibility. You can write a mission report and receive a new mission.”

Ward, who was standing nearby, nodded and followed Coulson out of the coffee shop.

······
Skye followed Smith Doyle out of the coffee shop and into the headquarters of the League of Assassins. While curious about the place, Skye was even more concerned about her origins. She asked Smith Doyle, who was beside her:
"Can I learn more about her past?"

Smith Doyle said as he walked:

"Her name is Jia Ying. We cannot be completely certain of your identity yet; it is only a suspicion."
