Chapter 079: Extraneous Branches
Felicity asked, "I heard you joined Hydra at the age of fifteen?" ”
Lichetti asked, "Why did your uncle kill you?" ”
Hitie asked, "Is it true that it was Hydra who framed S.H.I.E.L.D. in order to rule the world?" ”
Ti asked, "Haven't you known any gossip news about Hydra for so many years?" ”
Asked: "I want to see tetanus, why didn't you bring it?" ”
Felicity asked, Felicity asked......
Rhaegar regretted that he hadn't toughened his mind and refused Felicity's request. It turned out that he paid the price: the blonde glasses lady turned into a curious baby, and Rhaegar was drowned out by a series of questions. From the Northwest of the United States to the East-Central of the United States, from Star City - at this time it was still called Stirling City - to Fawcett City, Felicity barely stopped all the way, except for the short time when Rhaegar pretended to be asleep on the plane!
"I can see that you and Skye really have nothing to talk about!" "We've been living on the bus with her for two months, and she's been unrelenting, so she contacted you while she was sleeping?" How do you do it with SMS? ”
"How can it be a mobile phone text message, that's the least safe way!"
"I'm just saying it casually......"
"We collaborated on a messaging app that mixed seven different encryption methods. We are the only ones who know how to decrypt it, and we are the only two of us. ”
Noticing Felicity's proud expression, Rhaegar smiled, then asked in a pretended seriousness, "Why is such a secret method of communication?" What secrets do you and Skye have that no one else should know? Come to think of it, Skye can't join our squad with ulterior motives! ”
Felicity was stunned for a moment, then panicked.
"What ulterior motives, we're just, just a normal chat. Well, what's going on around you......"
"Felicity, you're really bad enough to tell a lie." Changing his previous serious expression, Rhaegar looked at Felicity and said with a smile.
It's a bit of an overkill to say that Skye has 'ulterior motives'. Naturally, she joined the team not because she believed in Hydra or anything, in fact, among the seven people in the entire special operations team, there was not a single one who truly believed in Hydra. Rhaegar doesn't say anything, Coulson is a spy sent by S.H.I.E.L.D. to break into Hydra; Mei Wei Coulson is the first to look forward; Ward, though not yet clear, is clearly not a true believer; And Fitz and Simmons, the two science babies, believe in their own scientific knowledge more than Hydra. These Raygars already had similar judgments, even if they weren't sure. As for Skye, Rhaegar just knew that she had infiltrated the team to find her parents who had abandoned her when she was a baby, and wanted to know her origins. And joining Hydra seemed to her to be the only way she could do that.
Here, Rhaegar deliberately leads the conversation to Skye's secrets, for nothing else, just to keep Felicity from asking questions. He did it. Out of guilt for accidentally betraying Skye, Felicity had the heart to explain, but she didn't know how to speak, and she hesitated to look at Rhaegar with a gaze.
However, when they landed at the airport in Fawcett, rented a car and headed straight for the bus, Rhaegar noticed Felicity's absent-minded appearance. There's no doubt that our blonde glasses lady is still struggling with revealing Skye's secret. For this, Rhaegar couldn't bear it. He took the initiative to speak, finding a topic to distract Felicity.
"I thought you'd ask some questions about my superpowers." He said, "Skye must have told you this, right?" ”
As a result, Felicity was stunned: "Superpowers? What superpowers? ”
Seeing her reaction, Rhaeggar's first thought was that she was lying. After ruling out this most unlikely possibility, he remembered that when he used the part of Rhaegar to 'recharge' Skye, Fizz and Simmons to him, Felicity used 'healing', and the rest was just Rhaegar himself subconsciously brainstorming out because he knew the inside story. So, it's possible that Felicity really didn't know that he had superpowers.
So, in the past two months, Skye had secretly talked with Felicity on the Bus so many times, involving so many questions about life on the Bus and even the system of Hydra, and even some things about Rhaegar himself, such as Rhaeggar's existence, some jokes made by Rhaegar himself, etc., but he missed the fact that Rhaegar has superpowers? Or did Skye keep it a secret and wasn't even ready to share it with her best friend?
If that's the case, then Skye vs. Rhaegar really ......
Felicity naturally didn't know that Rhaegar was in a mood like a flea at this time. What she saw was Rhaegar looking thoughtful.
"You're not making up a story. Do you have superpowers? Oh, please! She patted Rhaegar on the arm and smiled, "If you have superpowers, then you are not an agent of Hydra, but a captive, guinea pig or even a victim of Hydra." ”
Hydra is equal to overpower, and this concept is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. So the small group of people in Hydra want to make a difference through Rhaegar and their special ops team, and they really have a long way to go. Anyway, after two months, there has been little progress. However, the external effect is not good, but the internal effect is not bad, at least the team members do not show a tendency to reject or disgust Rhaegar 'suddenly' become a superpower, which is very disagreeable to the Hydra agents, especially Fitz and Simmons, who graduated from Hydra Academy.
But that's not the point, at least not for now. Rhaegar didn't continue to talk about his superpowers. Now that Felicity's attention has been diverted and she is no longer the infinitely guilty look, that is enough.
The two soon came to the outskirts of Fawcett City, where Rhaega had 'burglarized' and 'attacked the police and snatched cars', bought some tools in the small shop in the community, and then walked through the community, arrived outside the camphor forest, left the car and walked into the camphor forest, and finally returned to the place where the bus was parked.
Bus is still there, but it's still paralyzed.
"There are flashlights here that you can just visit. But I don't think there's anything to see in such a dark environment. ”
Felicity was looking forward to finally getting to see the super plane that Skye had been telling her. It's a pity that as Rhaegar said, the flashlight is indeed not an excellent light source, and the dim light can't support the sci-fi touch of the bus at all. On the contrary, the cold metal walls and overly rigid lines, as well as the scene on the bus that had been left in tatters and bloodstains from Skye and Simmons' fight with the invaders, made Felicity feel like she was in a haunted house. Our blonde glasses lady was a little scared.
"Rhaegar, where are you? Rhaegar ......"
The little voice trembled.
"I'm on the third floor."
"Okay, I'm going to find you." Hearing Rhaeggar's clear voice, Felicity finally reassured. "But...... How do I get to the third floor? I didn't see a staircase. ”
"The staircase is not on the first floor or on the second floor, but in the middle of the second floor, next to the living room. It was a spiral staircase."
"What the hell is this design! Okay, I'll look for it...... Hey, I found it! Felicity's voice grew excited. By the way, what are you doing on the third floor? I remember Skye saying that there were only your chief's rooms on the third floor. ”
Rhaegar repairing the Bus's solar-powered parts.
"No wonder you buy those tools. But you're still going to do this? I thought you were just a warrior. Felicity asked, as she came to his side. Skye said you graduated from the operations department of that Hydra Academy. I'm telling you secretly, she envy you. And the two, Fitz and Simmons. ”
"All I can say is that life in the academy is far from being as good as she imagined, no matter which department it is." Rhaegar smiled, "Also, it's true that I'm a warrior, but a warrior will also use Brother Gu's tutorial to repair solar equipment." ”
Felicity shrugged her shoulders, then sat down to the side, watching Rhaegar fix the parts with the glow of her phone's screen, somehow fascinated.
"What are you looking at?" Rhaegar asked with a sudden smile.
"I'm watching...... Ah, nothing! Felicity rose from the ground. By the way, I thought about the question again, if those people had captured Skye, why did they let this plane stay here? ”
The topic shifted.
Rhaegar smiled again, then didn't think about it anymore. He's having trouble repairing solar equipment, and the online tutorial doesn't mention the situation he's experiencing now.
"Is it to connect here, or to split ......up the line?"
He muttered to himself before hearing Felicity repeat the question again. So he responded naturally and casually: "Why don't you take this plane away?" How to take away, in the absence of energy that makes it fly? It's nearly 90 tons when it's empty! I guess the Resistance people don't want to make a fuss. After all, dragging such a big thing will cause no small movement. ”
Speaking of extraneous branches......
Felicity felt that Rhaegar had a point, and nodded. And at this moment, with a 'boom', the whole bus shook.
