Chapter 1020 Frustrated Purpose Unexpected Experience
After a sumptuous French meal, I bid farewell to the enthusiastic French elderly. Charis embarks on her journey again.
Although the old man had already told her, the mutants were treated differently now. But she still hid her identity and came to her destination as an ordinary passerby.
After Natasha retired, she had become a typical urban woman. She got a decent job as a fashion magazine editor and lazily lived like a cat in her villa near Beverly Hills. lived a life of shopping, working and resting that a normal woman should have. She even said that she also has a blue cat and a French bulldog.
As an agent, it's best not to keep any animals as pets. Because you will have concerns, and once you have concerns, it is easy to have a mentality that you shouldn't have and make mistakes that you shouldn't make when you are on a mission. Natasha is telling others her attitude in this way, and she really wants to retire. And it's better not to have anyone to bother her again.
For now, this statement has a certain effect. The Sky Hammer Bureau will not slap itself in the face. And it is impossible for the United States to harass a veteran with outstanding achievements. However, Natasha took every precaution, but she couldn't prevent the birth calf from being afraid of tigers, and Xia Ruisi, who didn't follow the rules at all.
So, when Natasha was about to go to a nearby cafΓ© for a cup of coffee and write a little script, she had to receive this uninvited guest.
"Charis, why are you here?"
For this visitor who disrupted the rhythm of her life, Natasha was not only surprised, but also had a little more foreboding. And looking at the beautiful woman in front of her who was stunned and wrote her stunned face, Xia Ruisi showed a bright smile.
"I've come to visit you. Why, don't you invite me in and sit? β
Facing Xia Ruisi, who has a special identity, even Natasha, who has the idea of ignoring the world, can only let go of her body and invite her in to talk in detail.
"What do you want to drink, coffee or tea. I can tell you up front, I don't have any alcohol here. So if you're going to drink, I can't help it! β
With a strange feeling, he invited Xia Ruisi to sit down. Natasha asked Charis as she busied herself at the bar.
And for this kind of polite words, Xia Ruisi smiled slightly, and said familiarly.
"A cup of coffee was fine. The other thing is please, don't talk like that. The tone of your voice is almost like the tone that Ida teaches me every day. Is this a common problem of your profession? β
"I think I'm a lot better talker than Ada."
With a smile, he brought a piece of coffee to Charis. Natasha sat across from her in an elegant and graceful posture and asked her with a smile.
"Can you tell me what you came to me for? Seriously, from the moment I saw you, I had a bad feeling in my heart. So tell me, isn't it a work thing? β
"Are you really planning to retire?" Hearing this, Xia Ruisi's face was a little more surprised. At first, she thought that Natasha was politically persecuted because of her time in the Sky Hammer Bureau. Because from her own channels, that is, the mouths of the mutants who broke into the Sky Hammer Bureau, she knew a lot about Natasha's exclusion. And it was from their mouths that she learned about Natasha's retirement.
In her opinion, there should be an inevitable connection between them. Otherwise, with the identity of an ace agent like Natasha, she would not have fallen to the point of retiring in the golden years of her career as an agent. It is precisely because of this that she will rise up with this idea of taking advantage of the fire. But now it seems that the situation is not what she thinks.
Looking at the surprise on Charis's face, Natasha tugged at the corners of her mouth and showed a disdainful smile.
"You don't really think that spy is a good job."
She asked rhetorically, but she didn't want to get an affirmative answer from Charis.
"Of course. How good an agent is at this job. It's just cool. Think about James. Bond. Think about Ethan. Hunter. Which of their missions is not so exciting, so thrilling! If it weren't for my brother and Ada who wouldn't let me join, maybe I would have been the one who joined the Avengers in the first place! β
There was a palpable resentment in Charis's words. But for this resentment of hers, Natasha heard it all the time. Only then did she realize that she didn't know this princess-like girl at all. Her thought circuit is not like a normal person at all.
Anyone who has been crawling around in this complex world for a while, but who realizes the cruelty and cold-bloodedness hidden behind this world. No normal person would say that an agent's job is cool, exciting, thrilling. Only children who are naΓ―ve enough to think that the world in the movie is the real world will have such unrealistic ideas.
In her opinion, Charisy is such a child. Even though she looks like she's grown up. But she had never seen the darkness and coldness behind this world.
This must be the reason why her brother gave her a good place to be protected. Natasha thought so, but there was a little more indescribable jealousy in her heart. But when she remembered the identity of that person, she could only feel sad in her heart. It's been a while since I've heard from that man, and I don't know what he's doing.
Natasha suddenly became absent-minded. This made Xia Ruisi look inexplicable next to her. With a woman's instinct, she felt that Natasha must be thinking of a man. It's just that at this time, isn't it a little inappropriate? Especially when she, the guest, is still talking to you about things. So immediately, she coughed twice at Natasha, which woke her up.
"Are we still down to business? Natasha. β
"I'm sorry. I don't really understand, you mean? β
Natasha came to her senses and immediately smiled at her. But her eyes have become firm and unchangeable. She already had her own idea, and the keen Chariss was already aware of it. But she took a deep breath and said to Natasha seriously.
"I would like to hire you as the chief advisor to the Radiance City SWAT Team. You should know that we are short of important talents like you. I guarantee that as long as you are willing to join us, we can provide you with the best benefits and the best treatment. It's definitely not worse than what you enjoy in the Sky Hammer round. β
To be able to say such a promise, Xia Ruisi has already used her greatest authority. Although she also holds a part of the shares of the Corona Group, she does not have so much say in the decision-making level. It can be said that giving Natasha everything she promised, I am afraid that it will be a while to be honest and obedient.
But if she could get a talent like Natasha, she didn't care about the price at all. Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find, and this kind of thing is the same for Xia Ruisi, who is only in charge of a small police force.
It's just that she thought it was beautiful, but the result was not satisfactory. Because before she finished speaking, Natasha had already given her clear answer of refusal.
"I'm sorry, but I have no idea of changing jobs. I'm happy with everything I'm doing now. So it might be a waste of time. β
"Don't you need to think about it anymore?"
The blunt refusal made Xia Ruisi's face become bitter. It was the same as she had imagined without it. It can be said that what she hopes for most now is Natasha's change of heart. But apparently, this is an unrealistic luxury.
"Unfortunately, I've thought about it. So, if you can, please let me live a normal life in peace, okay? β
Natasha has already said it to this extent. Xia Ruisi had no choice but to sigh and began to get up and leave. Her purpose has already failed, so naturally there is no need to stay. So with Natasha by her side, she quickly left here.
Less than an hour after the front foot left, she immediately noticed a serious problem. That is, she forgot her shoulder bag in Natasha's villa. It was a recently released limited edition shoulder bag, and it was also one of her favorites. Therefore, even if she was a little embarrassed, she could only touch it back quietly without the permission of her master.
"Maybe Natasha has something to do? Maybe she wouldn't have known I had ever been back. β
With such a fluke mentality, Charis quietly returned to Natasha's villa. Then I found what I was looking for.
This made her breathe a sigh of relief, and then she wanted to leave as soon as no one found out. But subconsciously swept her gaze, but she saw something she shouldn't see.
Littering high heels, some of which looked like clothes torn by brute force, and some of which were intimate for women. It's Natasha's stuff! Charis, who had just met Natasha, was very sure of her memory. And when she saw this, her curiosity immediately began to work desperately on the tip of her heart like a cat scratching it.
Does Natasha have a boyfriend? Are they doing something shameful right now? Driven by curiosity, Chariss had already turned into a sneaky thief, and with a shallow moan that was already clearly audible, she began to sneak towards the source of the sound.
She was eager to see who had taken the heart of that incomprehensible woman. And when she saw it, she was in unimaginable shock.
