Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger

Chapter 100: Natasha and Barton’s Thoughts

After Bi Xiao returned, he didn't hurry to leave Forks.

After all, Bella's presence made him decide to stay for a while. However, the hug between Bella and Bi Xiao at school drew widespread attention from the students.

It also sparked a lot of heated discussions.

Similarly, it caught the attention of the Cullen family.

That day, Bi Xiao arrived at school with Bella on a cool black Ducati motorcycle. After Bella sweetly kissed Bi Xiao, she handed him the helmet and walked happily towards the school.

Along the way, many students greeted Bella, and she responded to each of them in good spirits.

Of course, there were also a few friends she met at school. Eric, the Korean student, and Mike Newton felt somewhat downcast, as they both initially had a crush on Bella.

But after learning Bella had a boyfriend, they gave up completely, thinking it was good enough to be friends.

Bi Xiao watched Bella, who kept turning back to look at him. He waved with a smile, then got on his motorcycle and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he glanced back towards the school.

This glance made Dr. Carlisle Cullen, who was secretly observing from the second-floor corridor window, stagger back a little.

A trace of unnaturalness flashed across his mature, handsome, pale face.

Having heard from Alice that a strange Asian boy had arrived at the school, whom Alice believed to be the figure in her vision, Carlisle Cullen found this unusual. By coincidence, he observed the boy, and was surprised by how sensitive he was, even with just a casual glance.

Although Carlisle was a vampire with senses far beyond human capability, he felt an immense fear from the boy.

Even though the boy showed no malice, this in itself was telling.

It meant that the boy possessed a power that could instill fear in him.

The boy's life level far surpassed that of Carlisle, a vampire.

This feeling, not even the local werewolves or elders of other vampire families could give him.

"It really is as Alice said, indeed very dangerous." Muttering to himself, Carlisle instead showed a smile, knowing that today confirmed that the boy wouldn't pose a threat to the Cullen family.

At least they didn't need to flee elsewhere.

Carlisle loved this town. If possible, he preferred to stay here forever.

...

"So, our Mr. Butcher is now in Forks, dating a white girl?"

"This is the useful information you gathered?"

In the Long Island Headquarters office, Nick Fury looked at Natasha on the computer screen with a stern face. Natasha, dressed in a floral blouse and sunglasses, sat outside a coffee shop in downtown Forks, a laptop on the table and earphones in her ears.

She appeared to be enjoying a leisurely vacation.

"Yes, sir. I think there's no other useful information besides this. If you need, I can send you the background information on that girl named Bella."

As Natasha spoke, Barton, also in a jacket and sunglasses, came out of the coffee shop with two cups of coffee, handed one to Natasha, received a thank you, and sat down to enjoy his coffee.

Today's weather in Forks was very bright and sunny, which greatly lifted Natasha and Barton's spirits.

After all, this place was gloomy and rainy for more than half the time in a month. No one liked constant rain. Natasha preferred to show off her figure on the beach, basking in the sun.

Seeing his two top agents slacking off made Fury even more displeased.

"You know what I want to know."

"Sorry, sir, you know what we went through. He disappeared for a week, and we almost turned the whole world upside down without finding any trace of him. So, the information involved here is beyond our reach."

Natasha shrugged. She joined this so-called Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division to escape pursuit and ensure her safety.

She also hoped to ease her conscience by carrying out missions. She had stained her hands with countless people's blood in the Red Room, a sin she couldn't forget.

Essentially, Natasha wanted to survive, Bi Xiao was an extremely dangerous and uncontrollable person.

Especially in the last encounter in Chino Town, she and Barton were hunted by a demon in the truest sense. After calling for help, Bi Xiao completely disappeared, vanishing in front of a woman's portrait in the police station's storage room.

Fury even used most of his resources and power to search for Bi Xiao, but found nothing.

So, where had this boy gone? This question was worth pondering.

The bigger the secret, the more dangerous it usually is. Natasha could handle dangerous missions, those that were life-threatening, because it was her profession.

But when it involved mysterious powers, she was at a complete loss.

This wasn't just about death; if it touched on the soul, it was more than just death.

For the first time, Natasha and Barton defied Fury's orders.

They declared a vacation for themselves, embracing a rebellious attitude that left Fury speechless.

Looking at the computer screen showing Natasha and Barton leisurely drinking coffee, Fury remained expressionless. Although he desperately wanted to know what happened to Bi Xiao during those days, he understood it was impossible.

Unless he personally got involved, but Fury didn't want to alter the plan prematurely.

After a moment of silence, he said, "You can come back, mission terminated."

"You will have a new task soon. You have two days to rest. After that, you need to set off to track a new target."

"Yes, sir."

The laptop screen dimmed, and Natasha and Barton exchanged a knowing smile.
