Phil smiled bitterly, not wanting to hide anything: "You know the "big guy" who likes to sell things, right?"
Luke raised an eyebrow, "You mean he asked you to come for Skye?"
Phil shook his head quickly: "No. I just want to tell you that the old SHIELD has collapsed, but the people it offended still exist, and many of them are super-powered. Fortunately, the boss sold us a lot of powerful equipment, otherwise the new SHIELD would still be besieged by these vengeful guys."
Luke understood and couldn't help but laugh: "So, you want a girl who has only been stable for two years to be your thug?"
Phil kept smiling: "She has lived under the protection of that group of agents for more than ten years. Her character is trustworthy..."
Luke waved his hand unhappily. "Alright. She's an adult now. If you want to recruit her, go ahead. But first, don't make a fuss about her background."
Phil: "… We haven't found any accurate information about her background. The agents in that group have died one after another in recent years. The last one to die said that someone was attacking them specifically in order to find Skye."
Luke was speechless for a moment: after all this time, his cousin had already used all his combination skills.
The mystery of his life + the identity of the pursuer, as long as Phil acts as a good person and provides help, he might be able to fool Skye.
That’s right, this is bullshit.
Luke did the same thing more than once or twice, but it took him longer to plan and was less likely to arouse the other party's disgust.
Phil really fooled Skye, but it was actually nothing.
As a staunch supporter of long-term investment, Luke is confident that Skye will always be on his side.
Even if she really went to the new SHIELD, she would just be the next Phil or Tony.
If Luke asked, would she refuse
To be honest, the relationship between the new SHIELD, the Avengers and the Batteam is very delicate.
Because their top leaders are considered half Bat Squad members.
Luke's favor, plus the mutual interests between them, will make them stand firmly on Luke's side.
With both personal connections and interests at the same time, not to mention the naive Skye, even Nick Fury, Natasha, and Hawkeye, who are used to scheming, are reluctant to turn against Luke.
After getting Luke's "recruitment" permission, Phil relaxed and carefully shared other information about Skye's life experience.
Only then did Luke realize that Skye's host family was changed every one or two years because it was the work of the group of agents who were protecting her, so that she could avoid being hunted down by a certain force.
Phil speculated from various small clues that the pursuer was most likely a branch of Hydra.
Luke agreed with this speculation because some of the methods and habits were very similar to Hydra's procedures.
After the talk, Phil wanted to leave.
But Luke insisted on keeping him for a proper dinner before letting him leave.
Phil was a little helpless, but he had no choice but to accept it.
After sitting at the table, he ate a sumptuous dinner. Then he saw Luke sitting at the main seat, Selina sitting opposite him, and a certain dog head sitting diagonally opposite him. Suddenly, he felt a little sad.
Many years ago, Phil also attended a family dinner with the host and hostess, relatives and pets, but the host and hostess would never appear in front of him again.
The three of them chatted and laughed during the meal, and Phil even drank two bottles of beer, which was rare.
God knows how long it has been since he last drank so easily since he became the director.
Strong liquor will affect his judgment and delay his work, so it is not suitable for him to drink.
It's boring to drink beer alone. Everyone is busy at the office when he gets home. Those who can drink with him are either not in the mood or don't have time.
However, when the one-hour reminder set on his watch sounded, Phil couldn't help but stand up and say goodbye.
Luke, Selina, and Nugget walked him downstairs and out the door.
When they were passing through the hall at the door, Luke half-hugged him as he said goodbye: "There's always work to do. Come over for dinner when you have time."
Phil smiled and patted his shoulder: "I'll try my best."
He then waved goodbye to Selena, who was standing behind him, and Selena smiled in response.
As a result, Jin Nugget, who was squatting next to him, also raised one of his front paws and waved at him: "Woof woof woof."
Phil could only wave at it: "Next time I come, I'll bring you Royal Dog Food. Um, the gold medal kind."
bullion:…
Luke: …
Selena: …
…
Since Luke gave Phil the opportunity to fool Skye, he did not send the information to Skye immediately.
As a nephew, he couldn't reveal Phil's trump card in advance, right? His hairline was 0.5 millimeters higher.
He still had to protect his uncle's hairline, which even Kunlun Qi-refining technique couldn't save.
Besides, Phil has already gone there, and she will know everything within two or three days.
Sure enough, on the third day Skye sent a message to Luke to confirm Phil's identity.
Luke was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: Well, this uncle is really capable. He is using his own talents to dig into his own corner.
But, what can we do about it
He gave Skye an affirmative answer, and at the same time told her not to be anxious and to think carefully before making a choice.
No matter where she is, he is her strong support.
Skye on the other side was sure that Luke had not abandoned her, and she felt relieved, but she didn't know that someone was laughing.
As long as she is willing, wouldn't she be an undercover agent placed by the Justice League in the new S.H.I.E.L.D.
Luke thought the matter was over.
Phil didn't fool Skye at the first moment, so he simply accompanied her to track down the original clues.
No one knows how to find clues about 084 better than an old SHIELD director, and Phil can also access the confidential database of the old SHIELD.
But in early May, Phil called and said, "Luke, there's something wrong with Skye."
Luke was surprised: "What's wrong?"
Phil: "We found a guy who claimed to be her dad."
Luke was surprised: "What?"
This progress is amazing. The biological father was found in just ten days. Even novels don’t dare to write like this.
Phil: "I got some of his blood, and after testing, this man is indeed Skye's biological father."
Luke: "What's the trouble?"
Phil: "... He's a violent black market doctor. When we first found him, he got so angry that he slit the throats of two thugs who were treating him."
Luke frowned.
This is indeed not good news. No one would want to know if their friend has such a dangerous father and cuts Sky's throat in a hurry.
"What do you think?" Luke threw the difficult question to Phil.
If you want to recruit Skye, you will always have to take on some trouble.
Phil was silent for a moment before he spoke: "I'm considering whether to control her father first and have Skye accompany him for treatment, and then talk about it after the situation gets better."
Luke pouted.
This abacus is very good.
Skye's father is receiving treatment under the control of the new SHIELD, so it's hard to imagine that the relationship between the two sides is not close.
Luke hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to Phil's plan: "Okay. But I will immediately find a mental health expert to confirm her father's condition."
Phil naturally had no objection. Luke gave him a lot of conveniences, and he just wanted to give face to his nephew.
