into the eye.
The entire valley looks as if it were cleaved open by a giant axe of a god, perfectly hidden among the mountains.
If Mike hadn't possessed heightened senses and heard the sounds emanating from this valley, he probably wouldn't have been able to find this place.
Skye, who was standing nearby, also got down from Mike's arms and was captivated by the scenery and architecture in the valley before her.
The buildings throughout the valley are antique and elegant, giving people a sense of historical beauty.
A few wisps of smoke rose from the scattered courtyards in the valley, and together with the occasional voices coming from the valley, it did not seem noisy, but rather made it seem even more like a paradise.
After all, a paradise on earth requires people.
A paradise without people is not a paradise; it is just a desolate place where no one ventures.
But just as Mike and Skye looked down into the valley before them...
The urgent tolling of bells suddenly echoed through the valley.
"Thump, thump, thump, thump..."
Mike squinted at the valley before him. As the urgent bell tolled, the various people of different skin colors living in the valley began to panic, but they did not lose their composure. Instead, they walked quickly toward a house in one of the four corners of the valley with a rhythm that seemed to have been rehearsed.
at the same time.
He also saw several other strange people walking quickly towards him, going against the flow of those who were seeking refuge in the houses.
The leader was a woman in her early thirties, with a gentle and elegant appearance, long, smooth black hair, and a calm demeanor. However, several stitched scars on her cheeks added a touch of fragmented beauty to her appearance.
It was Jia Ying.
Mike looked away and glanced at Skye beside him.
"Let's go."
"……it is good."
Skye met Mike's gaze, took a deep breath, nodded, and then followed Mike, who was walking ahead, into the valley in front of them.
soon.
Mike, Skye, and Jia Ying with the strange person beside her met under a huge archway at the entrance and exit of the valley.
Jia Ying looked at Mike and Skye in front of her.
next second.
Her gaze swept past Mike and locked onto Skye.
Mike wasn't surprised.
Just like when he asked Grant Ward why he didn't tell Skye about her past.
Grant Ward has already met with Skye's biological father, Calvin Johnson, and made a deal.
So even if Calvin Johnson didn't meet Skye, he must have had photos of her.
Since Calvin had Skye's photos, Jia Ying must have seen them as well.
When Jia Ying's gaze fell on Skye, Skye was already looking at Jia Ying as well.
While she was in New York City, she had already sketched out an image of a mother in her mind through Mike's description of his mother.
The Jia Ying standing before him perfectly matched Mike's description of his mother.
The mother and daughter looked at each other, but neither of them spoke first.
"Cough cough!"
"..."
The mother and daughter, who were staring at each other, were both jolted back to reality by the cough and instinctively looked at Mike, who had made the sound.
Mike smiled slightly and looked at Jia Ying: "Aren't you going to invite your benefactor in for a cup of tea or something?"
He has the right to call himself Jia Ying's benefactor.
After all, Skye was the one he brought home.
Let's just put it that way.
Even if Jia Ying knelt down and kowtowed to him three times right now, Mike would accept it without hesitation.
Upon hearing Mike's words, Jia Ying realized what he meant, smiled at Mike, and gestured for him to come in.
Seeing this, Mike said to Skye beside him, "Let's go inside and sit down to talk."
Skye hummed in agreement, but her gaze remained fixed on Jia Ying.
Ten minutes later.
Inside a quaint, old-fashioned house.
Jiaying pushed open the door and invited Mike and Skye behind her into the house.
The remaining strange people did not follow them in.
"gentlemen……"
"Mike Ametra".
Mike met Jia Ying's gaze, smiled, and extended his right hand to introduce himself: "Mary and I are from the same foster home."
Upon hearing this, Jia Ying couldn't help but glance at Mike again.
Mike understood the meaning in Jia Ying's eyes and said with a smile, "I just know a little more, but I only learned about Mary's background not long ago."
Jia Ying looked enlightened.
After saying that, Mike continued, "I've told Mary about her background, as well as what you've been through and what Calvin Johnson has been through. Oh, and that includes your current hatred for S.H.I.E.L.D., and your attempt to awaken the Inhumans hidden around the world and create a world dominated by them."
Jia Ying would never say something like this, so only he could tell.
Jia Ying's expression froze.
But soon.
A look of confusion crossed her face.
"Mike, I don't understand what you're saying..."
"okay."
Mike interrupted her directly, looking at Jia Ying: "I said I know more than others, and I've also told Mary that I support your idea in what you're trying to do. You can ask Mary if you don't believe me."
Jia Ying was flustered when Mike directly exposed her thoughts. Upon hearing Mike's words, she subconsciously looked at Skye beside her.
Just as she suddenly wondered if she had fallen into a trap.
Jia Ying saw Skye looking at her with a strange expression, then nodded, her voice becoming somewhat hoarse again.
"Yes, Kyle told me everything you went through."
"..."
Jia Ying was silent for a while, then slowly spoke, her voice becoming somewhat hoarse: "Then... what do you think of me?"
Skye shook her head: "I don't know."
Jia Ying forced a smile.
But at that moment...
After Skye finished speaking, she first glanced at Mike, and then said to Jia Ying, "Although I haven't decided whether to leave S.H.I.E.L.D. yet, I asked S.H.I.E.L.D. for a very, very long leave before I came here."
Upon hearing this, Jia Ying once again turned her gaze to Skye.
Skye recalled something Mike had once told her.
"Kyle told me that love is simple, but it is also complicated."
“But I can’t simplify love like Kyle does.”
“But Kyle is right.”
"I can't love S.H.I.E.L.D. at the same time love you, who was deeply hurt by S.H.I.E.L.D.."
"If I stay with S.H.I.E.L.D., it will only deepen your hatred."
“I don’t want my mother to be completely consumed by hatred.”
"So when I came here, I thought of a solution."
"..."
72. As long as Mike isn't embarrassed, it's Jia Ying who's embarrassed!
"I will not persuade you to let go of your hatred."
"Because it is unfair to you who have suffered such cruelty and hardship, and I have no right to persuade you to let go of hatred."
"So I'd like to give you a suggestion."
"The people who arrested you back then were not S.H.I.E.L.D., but Hydra, which was hiding within S.H.I.E.L.D. If you want to take revenge on Hydra, I have no objection."
"But S.H.I.E.L.D. and humanity are innocent."
"Kyle told me about the plan you're developing."
"I neither can nor am qualified to comment on your plans."
"So I will leave S.H.I.E.L.D. and return to the home I have been searching for for the past 26 years."
"But I also hope that you will not involve those who are not involved in your hatred."
"Is it okay...?"
After saying this, Skye met Jia Ying's gaze, pursed her lips, and her voice, dry and suddenly tinged with nervousness and trembling, asked, "Mom?"
Jia Ying's expression had been changing since Skye's words, and when she heard Skye finally say "Mom" after so many years of longing, she could no longer control herself and took a step forward to hug Skye tightly: "Daisy, my Daisy!"
This is the end.
Skye has regained her third name.
Following her childhood as Mary Sue Popo in the foster home, and Skye, whom she chose for herself at the age of sixteen, she finally regained her original name at the age of twenty-six.
