Chapter 1203 Reunion, Two Choices

After receiving the news from Coulson, Skye rushed over almost non-stop.

Although in the past two years, her life has become very difficult, even more miserable than when she was a hacker. But she didn't feel any resentment towards Coulson, the man who changed her life.

Because to her, Coulson is really a very special existence. He is his confidant, his elder brother, and even his father. As an orphan, he gave him the feeling of being cared for that he had never experienced before. This alone is enough to make her go through fire and water for him.

And under such circumstances, Coulson met his subordinate, who hadn't masked his face for a long time, in the restaurant he had appointed.

In the past two years, Skye has not changed much in appearance. Because of her blood, she hardly ever looks old. So just like when I first met her, she is still so youthful and beautiful. However, Coulson, who is very good at observing details, noticed some subtle changes in her body.

First of all, the most intuitive feeling is that Skye cut his hair short. Contrary to the memory of the long hair in the past, Skye now has very neat short hair. Although she looks much smarter and more capable, Coulson knows how much she cherishes this long hair. If it wasn't forced by the situation, I'm afraid she would never lose such beautiful long hair.

Also, her clothes are a little worn out. Although it looked clean and tidy, judging from the wear and tear on the corners, the clothes might not be considered new anymore. Such a dress, coupled with the obvious tired look on her face. All of this made Coulson, the guide who led her into this complicated world, feel complicated.

He felt like he was doing something wrong. Whether it's meeting her old subordinate in this somewhat high-end restaurant, or bringing her into the world of secret agents, her life is full of adventures and excitement that shouldn't be there. Because if she didn't do this, she should be enjoying her youthful youth like those young people nowadays.

Thinking of this, Coulson couldn't help being a little dazed. And at this time, Skye had already approached, and warmly gave him a face-to-face gift, and smiled at him like this.

"What? Are you so surprised that you can't even concentrate? Or are you old enough to often recall the past?"

"Sorry, Skye..." Coulson subconsciously wanted to say sorry, but Skye interrupted him immediately.

"No, no, no...it's me who should be sorry!" Skye shook his head, and then took Coulson's hand.

"I'm sorry, Coulson. I haven't been able to visit you in prison once in two years. Although I know where you are locked up, there is really no way for me to show up. You know, we have been hunted , that is, it has been better recently. To be honest, when I heard your news, I still couldn’t believe it. Because I really can’t imagine how you came out, and how you can still sit until now In this position. According to common sense, shouldn't Stark also lock you up until the next century?"

"Maybe he suddenly found out his conscience." With a smile, he echoed Skye, and Coulson pushed the prepared juice in front of her. Then he pursed his lips and asked her. "How have you been these two years?"

"It's okay." On this issue, Skye didn't mean to hide anything. She took a sip of the sweet juice and complained to Coulson. "At the beginning, after that bastard Steve was arrested, Ant-Man and I were a little at a loss. And when Wanda and the others completely cut off contact with us, we can only say that we have completely disbanded. .Ant-Man went back to his hometown to see the children. And I went to your old friend, Maria Hill."

"She gave me a lot of help. Especially when the agent of the Sky Hammer Bureau was hunting me everywhere, if it wasn't for her, I'm afraid I would have been arrested long ago. But after she sat in your current position, She wouldn't be able to offer me protection so blatantly."

"Fortunately, at that time, the search for me was much weaker. So I used the original technology to earn extra money, while hiding and living the life of a sewer rat. If you weren't released, I'm afraid I'm still like this now."

These words were nothing when Skye said them, but Coulson could hear the hardship in her words. This made him feel sorry for the girl even more. Because he knew that everything she encountered was caused by himself. Otherwise, how could she be reduced to such a situation with her status as a SHIELD agent whose roots are thriving. So again, he opened his mouth sincerely to Skye.

"I'm sorry, Skye. It's all my fault!"

"It's okay, I'm just complaining. By the way, I'm living a very bad life now, so when are you going to take me back? Also, when will the two years' wages owed to me be made up. I'll tell you "Arrears of wages is a very serious problem, if you can't give me a satisfactory explanation, I will complain to you."

Regarding the wage arrears of the arrested agents, Coulson really couldn't find any cases in his mind. But he knew very well that it's better not to be fooled by this kind of thing. After all, Skye has suffered so much because of him in the past two years. So no matter whether it is emotional or reasonable, he should compensate her. Even if the money is withdrawn from one's own salary, it is a matter of course. So at the moment, he assured Skye.

"Don't worry, your identity will be processed soon. In addition, the two-year salary, including bonuses and task subsidies, will not lose you a single point."

"Are you serious? I was just joking." Skye felt a little embarrassed after hearing Kersen's answer, rubbing his nose. "I just want to complain. Because the recent life is so boring that it almost makes my whole body rusty. So, if you need my help with any tasks, you don't have to be polite to me."

Skye's request made Coulson somewhat unexpected, but this was the truest thought in her heart. For Skye, the current life that is so peaceful that it is a stagnant water is really not what she wants. It's like people who have learned dragon slaying skills always hope that there will be dragons in the world to let them show off their demeanor. She also hopes to display her own abilities in a special way so as to make her life more colorful. In her opinion, there is nothing more suitable for her than being an agent.

Although it is said that the spy industry was first abducted by Coulson. But after experiencing so much, she has fallen in love with this profession. Thrilling, exciting, and always dealing with some bizarre things, all of these really make her feel unable to stop. But after getting used to this kind of life, it was more painful than chewing wax for her to return to the ordinary life before. So now, she couldn't wait to put forward her request to return. As for her request, Coulson couldn't give a straightforward answer like before.

He has an idea of ​​his own, and this idea came to him after seeing Skye's current situation. Of course, because it is an initial idea, such an idea is not very mature. But after all, his brain was still turning fast, so he could sort out this idea in a short time.

And after being silent for a while, he opened his mouth and said to Skye.

"If you are willing to come back, I can naturally welcome you on behalf of the Sky Hammer Bureau. After all, you are my old subordinate, and I can rest assured that you are by my side to help. However, regarding your request, I But there are two arrangements, would you like to hear it?"

"Two arrangements?"

Hearing this, Skye couldn't help frowning. She knew Coulson well. Therefore, he can guess a thing or two about what Coulson's performance just now represented. It's nothing more than thinking about how to arrange yourself. It's just that he can come up with two solutions so quickly, which is not like his usual style of thinking twice before acting. So immediately, she asked with great interest.

"What plan? Can you tell me and listen to it?"

"Of course!" Coulson said to her after picking up the coffee in front of him and taking a sip. "First of all, the first plan is to transfer you to the U.S. branch of the Skyhammer Bureau. You must know that I don't have many people available to me now. Instead, we need to establish a network between the U.S. and Skyhammer Bureau headquarters. For a strong connection, you must use your own talents. Now Mei is sitting in that position, but you should also know that Mei’s character can’t last long. So I want to transfer you to be her deputy first, and then After a few years, you will take over her position. Become the boss of the sub-bureau. How about it? Are you willing to accept this plan?"

For anyone, this is an opportunity to step up to the sky. From a field agent to directly become a management team, there is even a guarantee that he can become the person in charge. The few among them were struggles shortened by twenty years. However, facing such an attractive condition, Skye frowned and asked directly.

"What's your next plan?"

Obviously, she wasn't interested in this. And this is the point that bothers Coulson the most. Because he didn't want to say the second plan, it would be too dangerous for Skye. But, how to convince Skye?

Just as Skye knew him, he also knew Skye, a subordinate brought out by himself. To put it bluntly, this is a stubborn person, and he is the kind of guy who will not change at all once he has his own ideas. He had wiped her butt no less than before. So he knew very well how difficult it was to convince her. However, he still wants to keep working hard.
