Chapter 48 - 48

Hey, hey, hey, what are Agent Li and Agent Mei talking about?"

"Deadpool" Wade Wilson poked Barry Allen with his elbow, lowering his voice to ask.

"You ask me? I don't understand republic language!" Barry Allen could only turn his gaze to Oliver Queen, "Oliver, you should understand, right?"

"It's nothing substantial. They're saying Skye's supervisor is Agent Li Chengfeng, the Captain of the Star Team, and that the Star Team was dragged off for special training by the Death Goddess."

After Oliver Queen roughly translated, the surrounding team members all gasped.

Death Goddess!

A few days ago, when Agent Li Chengfeng brought this Death Goddess from Asgard to headquarters, the energy detection instruments throughout the entire building nearly exploded!

Was being specially trained by such a terrifying figure a good thing or a bad thing?

"But you're really lucky, Li Chengfeng personally came to be your supervisor." Wade Wilson said to Skye with a rather envious tone, "Even if he loses all his superpowers, he's still a figure on par with Natasha Romanoff."

This little fangirl, Skye, could no longer hear Wade Wilson's incessant chatter.

Her eyes were practically glued to Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng's physique wasn't that of a muscular man resembling a small mountain, but his slender and agile body made him look like an extremely lazy leopard.

Seemingly unaggressive, he could actually leap up at any moment and take someone's life.

She regretted becoming an undercover Agent for the Rising Tide organization within the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

She should have just been a hacker, but she had to expose some government conspiracy…

Was the conspiracy that they were hiding such a top-notch Republic hunk?

After meeting the entire Coulson Team, Li Chengfeng finally came before Skye.

"Hello, Skye, I am your supervisor, Li Chengfeng. If that's a mouthful, you can just call me Li."

"Hello, Li."

Skye politely extended her hand, but unexpectedly, after Li Chengfeng shook her hand, he actually took advantage of it and pulled her into his embrace.

She instinctively wanted to curse, but her shoulder strap was flipped up at that very moment.

At this moment, what she thought wasn't that she was being molested, but…

It's over.

Hidden inside her shoulder strap was a memory card, used to store internal Federal Bureau of Investigation information obtained, which she was supposed to hand over to the Rising Tide organization later.

"Coulson, catch." Li Chengfeng casually threw the memory card to Coulson, "Didn't you say someone has been downloading internal intelligence beyond their authority? It was the hacker baby who did it."

Of course, Li Chengfeng didn't have x-ray vision; he just had some understanding of Skye.

However, the progression of this World was still somewhat different.

For example, Skye joined the Federal Bureau of Investigation first, rather than joining due to a series of coincidences after the New York City explosion yesterday.

But overall, Coulson and the others still didn't know Skye's identity.

Facing the scrutiny of her teammates, even Skye had a bit of a 'might as well give up' attitude.

"How are you going to keep us silent? How can you possibly do it? The cruel truth is known to all, it's everywhere! You are destined not to stop the Rising Tide! We are like the tide, you will never find us, you will never see our true faces! We will always rise up and resist those behind the scenes who hide the truth of the World from us!"

Skye shouted at Li Chengfeng, who was restraining her hands, as if she had already put herself in the shoes of an enemy Agent who had fallen into enemy territory, and the next scene should involve some R-rated content.

Li Chengfeng shook his head, feeling that he should watch fewer of those movies with simple settings that could be acted out by one or two people.

Thinking of this, Li Chengfeng smiled, as gentle as a deity who had fallen to the mortal World, causing Skye to freeze.

Then her vision went black as Li Chengfeng covered her head with a black hood.

"Damn it! What do you want to do to me? The Federal Bureau of Investigation is a monster that devours the truth! The Rising Tide is the Guardian of truth, resisting the Federal Bureau of Investigation! Resisting the authoritarian organization that destroys the public's right to know!"

"Chirping, chirping! Annoying, aren't you?" Li Chengfeng casually flicked Skye's forehead, hitting her squarely, "When did hacker organizations start packaging themselves as righteous crusaders? It sounds nice, but do you understand that the Rising Tide is selling Federal Bureau of Investigation intelligence at high prices? Who did the Federal Bureau of Investigation offend? While risking their lives to protect you, they also have to find ways to solve the troubles you create."

"This is all slander! The Rising Tide is the embodiment of justice!"

"Alright, you're all righteous partners, is that enough? Now please remain silent, if you speak again, I'll spank you! Be careful, I'm a single guy, and I might do something inhumane to you."

"…So you mean, you don't have a girlfriend yet?"

"Skye, your level of infatuation is truly something I've never seen in my life."

Li Chengfeng and Coulson, in front of all the team members, threw Skye into the interrogation room of the airborne mobile command center.

"Li, it has just been confirmed that although they are all relatively unimportant pieces of intelligence, they are indeed things that a probationary Agent should not have access to." Coulson nodded, "And from the latest intelligence, Skye appeared at the scene of yesterday's New York explosion and posted a video using the Rising Tide account, the content of which was a person in a hoodie climbing up to the fifth floor with bare hands, rescuing someone, and then jumping down without protective equipment."

Li Chengfeng nodded and pulled off the black hood.

Skye regained her vision and found herself in a confined room made entirely of monochrome metal.

There was no furniture except for simple tables and chairs.

"Next, am I going to be interrogated?"

"Uh, honestly, your petty mischief isn't really enough for an interrogation." Li Chengfeng pouted, picking up Skye's file, "But you have intelligence we're interested in. How much do you know about yesterday's New York explosion?"

Although Li Chengfeng understood the general plot, it had already changed from the original, so it was better to proceed step by step…

Most importantly, if he told Coulson directly, how would he explain why the Captain of the Star Team was interested in a seemingly ordinary explosion and investigating the issues behind it?

"Skye, so we need a name." Li Chengfeng sat opposite Skye with a solemn expression, "That was a hero, but because of the video you posted, his situation is very bad now."

"Why do you think I know?"

"You're an undercover Agent who entered the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Yesterday you appeared at the scene of the explosion, so we believe you filmed everything and then had the Rising Tide release it."

"Uh-huh, but you just found out that you can't break through the data encryption on my phone and laptop, which means you actually got nothing."

"You know, cases handled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation don't need procedural justice like the NYPD… In short, you released the video, and we have reason to suspect that you orchestrated the explosion just to draw out this superhuman."

Hearing Li Chengfeng say this, Skye, who always prided herself on being righteous, slammed her hand on the table and stood up!

"How could it be me? It's clearly you! Isn't the ultimate way to cover everything up a bomb? This isn't the first time you've done this! This time the Centipede Project too…"

"Centipede? What Centipede Project?"

Coulson frowned, but Skye immediately reacted.

"Wait, you actually don't know about this?"

At this, Skye was practically convulsing with laughter.

"Hahahahaha, billions of dollars worth of high-end equipment are like trash in your hands! I bet I can crush your communications department with just my laptop."
