Hydra Spy

Chapter 116 The House of Ashes

Instead of choosing Washington or New York as their base, Ward and Skye bought a plane ticket to Los Angeles.

This was mostly Skye's idea.

She has been staying in Los Angeles for the past few years and is very familiar with it. She wants to go back to Los Angeles to deal with some trivial things in the past.

Thirteen hours later, the two arrived in Los Angeles, California from Shanghai.

The first step in Skye's plan is to pay off the rent on the house she rents in Los Angeles and then give it back.

So after getting off the plane, Skye hailed a taxi and took Ward to his destination.

Along the way, Skye was talking to Ward about her previous experience, and she said it after getting off the plane, and also in the taxi.

Passing by a kfc, she immediately said happily to Ward:
"Oh! I see! I've lived in Los Angeles for more than a year, and this KFC is the restaurant I visit the most, because it's really cheap. Let's eat this later, shall we?"

Of course Ward would not refuse, and he fully agreed: "It's all up to you!"

The taxi drove to the door of a church again, Skye's expression became a little sighed, and he said:

"I often come to this church, praying in it to find my parents sooner. I didn't expect so many things to happen after I found my mother..."

Ward immediately comforted him: "Your father should be fine, trust me, you can find him."

Immediately after...

Ward actually felt a little tired.

He didn't have much experience in love in his last life, who knows that this is his second life, and it's still very immature to fall in love.

Although as an agent, Ward had actually taken courses in dealing with the relationship between men and women and mastering women's hearts, but facing Skye, he didn't intend to use those methods at all.

Because Ward didn't want to destroy the pure feeling between the two of them, once those secret agents were used, he would feel sorry for the relationship.

The taxi arrived at Skye's house not long after. It had not been lived in for several months, and a thin layer of dust had already accumulated inside, some furniture was rusted, and there were even several cockroaches running away in fright when they entered. , Hiding out of sight.

There was no way, the two of them started cleaning again before they could stand still.

After crushing a cockroach that escaped from under the sofa, Ward sighed and said, "The landlord didn't take the house away, Skye, how lucky you are!"

Skye said with a smile: "That's not true! I'm an eight-point beauty anyway, and the owner of the house is a friend of mine in the hacker organization. How could he be willing to take away my house?"

Speaking of which, Skye touched Ward's smooth thigh, made a black handprint on his thigh, and then smiled charmingly, full of provocation!

But Ward's face froze a bit.

Because he noticed very keenly that the landlord in Skye's words was 'he', and he was also her friend in the hacker organization...

This made Ward slightly jealous.

Why don't other landlords take your house away.

Since Skye fell into the underground temple, she has not paid the rent for more than two months, and she has disappeared. No matter where in the world, the landlord has a reason to kick her out, but the entire landlord No, there is definitely a problem!

Reminiscent of the plot of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Skye seems to have a hacker ex-boyfriend, and Ward's face is even darker!
"What's your landlord's name?" He asked seriously.

Seeing Ward's face that seemed to be clouded, Skye's charming look disappeared, and he hurriedly explained:
"Ward, the landlord is indeed just a friend in my hacker organization, and I have nothing to do with him, you have to trust me, Ward!"

"Really?"

Skye raised his right hand and stretched out three fingers, pointing to the sky: "I swear in the name of God, I can guarantee that what I said is true, if there is any falsehood, I will be struck to death by lightning right now!"

"Okay, I believe you..."

Ward let out a sigh of relief and felt much better, but there was still a lump in his heart.

He thought for a while and said forcefully: "In order to show that what you said is true, I don't allow you to meet with the landlord here. You give me his phone number, and I will handle everything about the house!"

"No problem, everything is up to you!" Skye agreed wholeheartedly, and then he was relieved.

She was afraid that Ward would really misunderstand and affect the relationship between the two, and then she would collapse!
After finally meeting someone who is tempted, she can't let him run away!

The two continued to clean, and it took them more than two hours to clean the room.

"Jingle Bell……"

It was already past six o'clock in the afternoon, and the two of them were just about to go out for dinner when the doorbell rang suddenly.

Skye was about to get up when he heard the voice, but was suppressed by Ward, and then he walked to the door: "I'll open the door, don't move!"

It's not that Ward is sensitive, it's just that there are basically no one who can knock on the door at this time except the landlord, neighbors and the police.

Among the three options, the landlord is definitely more likely, which is why Ward is so sensitive.

No way, he has decided that Skye is his girlfriend, and he must protect her!

As soon as he opened the door, Ward found a man in his 25s standing outside. When he saw him, the man immediately frowned and said:

"Who are you? Why are you in my house?"

"You are the landlord?" Ward looked at this guy, and found that he was crushing him in terms of height and appearance. He felt a sense of superiority in his heart, but said indifferently on his face:
"I'm Skye's boyfriend. I came back to help her check out. I'll go to you tomorrow to check it out. If it's okay, can you leave?"

In the house, Skye was so happy that he wanted to jump up when he heard that Ward had confirmed their relationship in this way.

The landlord outside the door had a look of disbelief, and said loudly, "Sky's boyfriend? Why didn't I know that Skye had a boyfriend? Let me in, and I want to verify with Skye whether this is true or not!"

As he spoke, he wanted to break through Ward's arm propped on the door frame, but when he pushed hard, he found that Ward's arm didn't move at all, and he couldn't push at all.

So much strength?
He continued to push, even trying to get under his hand, but was stopped by Ward's outstretched foot.

Realizing that he couldn't get in at all, he panicked and shouted into the room: "Skye, are you there? Is what this man said true? Are you kidnapped?"

Knowing that the landlord was like this, Skye knew that he could do nothing if he didn't show up, so he came over and said to Ward first:

"Just let me have a word with him, otherwise it's not a solution to waste like this!"

Seeing that there was really no other expression in Skye's eyes, Ward was finally completely relieved, let go of a corner, and let Skye show up.
