Chapter 144: The End of the Story

3/5 weekly chapter, enjoy.

“Hahaha……”

Mathison couldn’t help laughing at hearing Ward’s words. 

“When you can beat your enemy, you simply attempt to kill them. But when you cannot, you tell them that you are not their enemy? Interesting. Is this how S.H.I.E.L.D. works?” 

Although he knew that Ward is from Hydra, Mathison couldn’t help but say sarcastically. 

After all, most of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents under Fury perform this practice. 

The only difference is probably that S.H.I.E.L.D. will try to talk to you before attacking you.

“I did not do anything today, you guys came up and attacked me without any reason…”

Mathison’s eyes were cold, and his intent to kill spread all around. 

Once Ward had told Daredevil to besiege Kid, it could clearly be seen that Hydra has long wanted to capture him. 

And for what purpose, you might ask? 

Needless to think about it, there are no other possibilities besides experimenting on him and trying to generate their perfect super-soldier serum.

“Grant Ward, you mentioned you are a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, yet Idon’t think that’s all you are.” 

Mathison’s eyes seemed to see everything through Ward. 

The truth is as he says. 

Ward’s heart was shaken. There have been rumors that Phantom Kid knew countless secrets. 

Does he know the existence of the organization? 

How is this possible?! 

“Agent Ward, after you go back, you can tell the group of people behind you, who dare to defy Kid, that they can eat crap!” 

Mathison said with a smile on his face. 

He really knows! 

Ward thought in horror. 

Why did Phantom Kid know of Hydra’s existence? Not even Fury knew!

They obviously have never operated under the name of Hydra. 

It has only been more than half a year since Mathison’s debut, and it is absolutely impossible that he had been in contact with Hydra. 

If Mathison revealed to Fury the fact that the Hydra had not been eliminated, the consequences would be disastrous. 

After the horrors he shortly lived, Ward’s mind was nested with strong killing intent. 

Whoever knows the secrets of the organization cannot remain alive! 

But the obvious gap between strength and weakness led Ward to hesitate.

He was not the kind of cannon fodder who was brainwashed to lose his temper but was trained as a trump card by Garrett. 

Ward has a very strong sense of autonomy and thinking ability. 

Therefore, he suppressed his killing intent for Mathison. 

“I don’t know what you are talking about, there is no group of people behind me.” 

Ward pretended to look behind him, then waved his hand. 

Mathison certainly doesn’t expect Hydra to abandon their plan of catching him because of such a threat. 

After Ward takes back Kid’s words, Hydra might even get more hostile towards Kid, and this is exactly what Mathison wanted to achieve. 

The Hydra group are way shadier than S.H.I.E.L.D., only ghosts know where many of them are hiding. 

It would be better to provoke them directly and let them know that he knows of their existence. 

It’s a pity that they have no clue who he is. 

It is either that every time Mathison would send out a notice letter, Hydra will send someone to hunt him, only for Mathison to sweep them away. 

Or they will just go around Mathison and continue manipulating Fury, keeping away from trouble. 

“Really, Agent Ward? Well, if you say so, then so be it.” 

Mathison smiled mysteriously. 

Daredevil could not understand the strange riddle the two are playing here, but he could see that S.H.I.E.L.D. ’s agent seemed to have dropped the idea of fighting Kid.

“So… S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, do you still need my help?” 

Matt wasn’t sure whether they wanted to continue the fight. After all, even S.H.I.E.L.D. hadn’t insisted on catching Mathison, so he didn’t seem to have a reason to attack Kid. 

What’s more is that he didn’t have the confidence to defeat Kid. Even the weapon he worked hard to build is now broken. 

“What are you guys arguing about below?!” 

At her roar, Jessica suddenly jumped out of the window of the pseudonymous detective office on the top of the building. 

A “boom” sounded after she fell on the ground, stirring up a lot of dust. 

As soon as the dust dispersed, several people were shocked to find that Phantom Kid had disappeared. 

Even Matt didn’t hear Kid’s sound when he left. 

Not only Mathison, but even Skye’s van disappeared… 

Jessica was unsure of what has just happened. 

“Matt, it looks like it’s been a long time since you got here, why didn’t you come up to get the information you asked for?” 

With that, Jessica pointed to Ward and others. 

“Where did these people come from? Were you fighting with these people just now?” 

Matt shook his head repeatedly, “They are agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and it was actually me who joined forces with them to fight another person. However, that person is gone now.”

When Matt uttered the word S.H.I.E.L.D., Jessica’s face instantly went dark. 

Because she subconsciously thought that these agents were monitoring her without her knowledge. 

She didn’t calm down until Matt quickly informed her of the rest. 

Ward didn’t know that Daredevil inadvertently saved his life… 

On the other side, Barbara dragged Skye all the way and ran out of the boundaries of Hell’s Kitchen. 

Hell’s Kitchen is actually not big. It is only a few blocks in total, and you can run out of it in less than half an hour. 

If it wasn’t for the fact that Skye couldn’t run anymore, Barbara could have even run a few more blocks.

“No one is chasing behind.” 

Barbara looked backward carefully for a long time, and after confirming that no one was following them, she was no longer in a hurry to leave.

“Oracle… Barbara, who are you…? Why are you… this good?” 

Skye asked while breathing heavily. 

Barbara had already prepared her excuses. 

“Didn’t I mention it in my resume? My hometown is in Gotham.” 

“You know, you can’t live in Gotham without learning a little self-defense.”

“But your physical stamina… is completely different from that of a normal person… Let alone women, even long-distance runners don’t have your physique.” 

Skye sat on the ground, sweating profusely. 

“Do you also have superpowers?” 

Skye could only think of this possibility. 

“Actually, I don’t have one, but I do have a little talent in martial arts.” 

Barbara waved her hand and said. 

Skye watched her for a long time but couldn’t detect anything unnatural on Barbara. 

So she had to believe in her words. 

After a while, Skye felt that she was almost rested, so she stood up and prepared to set off. 

“Oracle, our car may have fallen into the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D., and I’m not sure how much information they can get in my computer.” 

Skye was distressed. 

“You don’t have to blame yourself. This is not entirely your responsibility.” 

Barbara said in relief. 

The two slowly walked out of an alley. 

Then, to their shock, they found that Skye’s van was parked on the side of the road! 

And there is no one nearby. 

“Pretty lady, I am very grateful that you like me so much, and I am honored that you have put my poster in the car, so I helped you get the car back from the hands of those people. 

Phantom Kid” 

Skye got into the driver’s seat and found a card on the steering wheel. 

Looking at Mathison’s autograph, Skye’s mouth couldn’t stop rising. 

“This is so perfect! Come on, Oracle, I’ll give you a ride!”
