While Agent 13 was complaining about her vacation reimbursement, the protagonist of her report was having a bedtime conversation with a beautiful woman.

It's a small wood, on the edge of a small lake, a standard camping spot. In this place where there is no village and no store, Grant is not worried about being discovered, and boldly builds a fire. After a quick bite to eat, he and Skye sat down by the fire to keep warm.

"It was the most exciting day of my entire life!"

In the light of the fire, Grant could see the excitement on Skye's face.

"Your previous life was boring?"

Hearing this, Skye tilted his head and thought about it. Grant has to admit that she is very attractive in this way. Therefore, he was even more puzzled - how could such a lovely girl stay in an orphanage all the time, and now she seems to have no friends when she grows up, and has to live alone in a minivan? Is it because of what makes her special?

That's when Skye spoke.

"It's pretty boring. As a kid in an orphanage, I spent almost all of my time playing a good kid. It's a pity that this good boy didn't meet a good ending. When I grew up, I was determined to find my biological parents, and I worked hard to learn hacking skills. It's just that after a few years, nothing has been found except for a blacked-out S.H.I.E.L.D. file. I can't say it's frustrating, but I'm a little tired of it. ”

"Tired? This shouldn't be something you say at your age. ”

"Why are you so sure?" Skye smiled wryly, "Even I don't know how old I am. ”

At this time, Grant also smiled. Compared to Skye's more self-deprecating smile, his was markedly more infectious.

"Maybe thirty or forty?"

"Impossible!"

When it comes to age, it is easy to touch a woman's bottom line, even if a woman is in a state of self-shame, it is very likely that she will bottom out. It's like Skye now. She laughed to herself after being startled.

And this time it was a real laugh.

"You seem to enlighten women a lot? It's a good idea, at least it worked for me. Looking at Grant, she said, "And ...... I always thought I was only twenty years old. Or twenty-two? But definitely not thirty or forty! ”

"Okay, okay, Miss Twenty."

said this very insincerely, so Grant was kicked by the other party. Suddenly, his voice changed: "By the way, if you tell me about hacking into S.H.I.E.L.D., aren't you afraid that I will report you?" Or are you really that confident in your hacking skills? ”

"Self-confidence is one aspect. But I'm more sure you wouldn't. I can feel it. ”

Being stared at by the other party's big eyes, Grant didn't know how to answer.

"It's not a good thing to trust people too easily, you know that." Grant said. Then, without waiting for Skye to respond, he continued, "Stretch out your hand." ”

Puzzled, Skye did so. She placed her hand on the palm of Grant's hand spread out in front of her. Then, in a daze, she watched as the other party flipped her hand over and over and squeezed it lightly. When she didn't hold back her shyness and curiosity, she raised her head to ask, and just met the other party's gaze.

"You know what, you're special."

Letting go of Skye's hand, Grant spoke first, and his tone was still very serious.

In fact, Grant wanted to talk to Skye long before they had just escaped from that Chinese restaurant. It's just that there's never been a chance for the rest of the year. And with the help of the female knight, he got rid of the Winter Soldier, and the way to this side was full of opportunities, but he didn't know how to speak.

Now I've heard some of Skye's experiences as a child, including the fact that she's never spent much time in the same orphanage, how many times she's been adopted, only to be sent away shortly after, and the blacked-out S.H.I.E.L.D. documents she's found while searching for her identity. Grant had a hunch that the incident he wanted to talk about was probably related to Skye's experience. Even if not a direct effect, it can be an indirect cause.

He discovered something special about her.

Long before infiltrating Stryker's secret base beneath the Yarkali Lake Dam, Grant discovered that he could distinguish the superpowered humans around him. There was no doubt that this was the effect of the Rubik's Cube energy in his body, although he didn't know exactly how it worked. At first, Grant was hoping that this ability would be able to pull out an apparently modified person like the Winter Soldier, so that he could avoid some high-threat sneak attacks. It's just that after two encounters, the Winter Soldier didn't cause energy induction. That's when Grant knew that the use of this ability was not as big as he thought. After all, superpowered humans are not guns in Americans' homes, and they can't be everywhere. Even if he had been a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent for several years, he had only met for the first time after he had defected. Therefore, he quickly did not think about this rather frivolous ability.

Then the strange thing happened.

The first time he saw Skye, even now, his energy didn't move. In other words, this big-eyed Asian beauty should be an ordinary person. But when Grant held her in his arms in order to protect her in the restaurant before, the energy in his body was actually sensitized. Grabbing her hand just now made Grant confirm his speculation.

There are three possibilities. First, Skye is a superpower, and she disguises herself in unknown ways; Second, Skye is a hidden superpower, and her abilities need to be activated at some point; Finally, Skye is a carrier of superpower genes.

Grant still knows too little about this chicken rib's ability, so he can't make an accurate judgment. If he is still a member of S.H.I.E.L.D., or if he surrenders to S.H.I.E.L.D. now, he may have the opportunity to delve into the energy in his body. Just for the sake of such an opportunity, he may well have to give everything, his freedom and even his life, which is unacceptable.

Thinking a little far, back to the point. Anyway, Grant concludes that he can only sense Skye's special if he has skin-to-skin contact with her. Maybe that's why Skye was constantly being transferred as a child - someone was secretly protecting her. This approach is very similar to the way S.H.I.E.L.D. protects some of its high-value scientists.

Combined with the fact that Skye found the blacked-out S.H.I.E.L.D. documents, it's likely that the person protecting her was a member of S.H.I.E.L.D., or had been. Of course, all of this is just speculation. Grant's only one thing is really certain.

And this conclusion is a bit odd to read. Grant's series of actions also caused Skye's misunderstanding.

"This, this, isn't this too fast. We've only known each other for a day, or two. I mean, you're a good guy, there's no doubt about it. It's just that you're not familiar with me yet, and I'm not very familiar with you. Besides, I have a boyfriend......"

Skye, blushing, lowered his head and whispered something like this, scorching Grant on the outside and tender on the inside. Although she is quite good for his appetite in terms of appearance and personality, he doesn't mean that yet, why is he suddenly a "good person"?

Uh, did your behavior just now really feel like a confession?

Plus, I have a boyfriend...... It's a pity.
