Skye's life underwent a dramatic change.

First, she gained a superpower: Quake.

Then, she also got a permanent position.

Finally, I don't have to hide around anymore, and I don't have to sleep in the RV. Instead, I can sleep in a clean room and wake up to a pristine white ceiling.

For Skye, this was like a dream, so she cherished this kind of life.

Although there's now an extra boss above me.

"Boss, here's the information you requested."

She packed everything up and handed it to the woman in front of her.

Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff.

This is the information she knows; just from her title, you can tell she's very capable.

Black Widow is a very powerful 'spider', and using it as a codename suggests that it is no ordinary creature.

Natasha took it, looked at it, and was quite satisfied.

Dealing with Skye and Crystal is easy.

She simply chose an occasion, first startling the two of them, and then using kind words to coax Skye into coming in.

Skye dreams of working as a public servant and living a normal life.

Then there's Crystal, which was even simpler. Natasha just promised her she'd get to play the new game, and Crystal joined without hesitation.

As for Crystal's own mission, she had long forgotten about it.

Crystal doesn't care much about Mutants, nor does she think Mutants pose a threat to the Inhumans.

It's just that her sister and brother-in-law are having some mental breakdowns.

Therefore, joining S.H.I.E.L.D.. is a novel experience.

Now, Natasha's Black Widow Team has three members.

This was Natasha's first time being a 'leader,' so she was a little unaccustomed to it.

She was used to working alone to complete tasks, but she also knew that she had to change her approach.

Those missions were too dangerous; she had other things on her mind and wasn't suited to do such dangerous tasks anymore.

"Boss."

Skye then asked, "We've been working so long, when are we going to get a break?"

"A holiday? Secret agents don't get holidays."

Black Widow Natasha startled her.

This made Skye immediately pout.

"However, when there are no missions, it's good to take a break."

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Natasha smiled.

Skye's eyes lit up. "Really? Let's go shopping, boss, let's go together."

She tugged at Natasha's arm, acting all coquettish.

She was very independent from a young age and didn't have much family affection, but Natasha treated her very well, which made her like the team.

"Okay, anyway, nothing else matters."

Natasha hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

So they called Crystal along, and they went shopping in their car.

They went to Fifth Avenue and bought some clothes and cosmetics.

Afterwards, they went to Times Square for a stroll, and it was then that Skye, with her sharp eyes, spotted a movie poster.

She blinked, wondering if she was seeing things.

But after rubbing it, I found it was still the same picture.

The poster featured a beautiful woman who filled the entire screen—and this was a screen in Times Square!

And the main character on this movie poster is none other than their leader!

Natasha Romanoff.

"Boss, is this you?"

Skye could only point to the poster and ask.

As Natasha looked up, a feeling of utter despair washed over her.

She was filled with regret; she shouldn't have agreed to continue making movies with Li Chen in the first place.

Well, that's terrible, they actually bought this kind of ad space!

Isn't this harming her?

"No."

Natasha, her face cold, immediately spoke.

But Skye and Crystal clearly didn't believe it.

"Let me check the movie information. The female lead is named Natalie... she's only a little bit less attractive than the boss."

Skye laughed deliberately.

Skye, watch out, or you might lose your salary.

Natasha sneered.

However, this is also a very obvious showdown.

This prompted Skye to immediately grab her arm and say, "Boss, I was wrong."

"However, let's go see a movie."

Without saying a word, she and Crystal pulled Natasha into the movie theater.

Natasha couldn't really resist, and besides, she was also quite curious about what the movie was like.

And so, she entered the movie theater, half-heartedly.

It's not the weekend, but the movie theater was still quite crowded.

And most of them came specifically for "Lucy".

Skye exclaimed in alarm and rushed to queue up to grab tickets.

"The three ' Lucy should be held jointly liable."

Fortunately, although the movie is very popular, it obviously won't be sold out.

People only choose less desirable seats for movies that are extremely difficult to get tickets for; otherwise, everyone wants the best seats.

To enhance the experience, Skye also bought Coke and popcorn.

She returned and said, "I've always wanted to go to the movies; before, I always rented DVDs."

Hearing her say that, Natasha's expression softened somewhat.

After waiting for a while, the three of them entered the theater.

The movie started shortly afterward.

The film opens with Natasha; from the very beginning, she is the absolute protagonist.

Upon seeing the person on the screen, Skye and Crystal confirmed that this was their 'leader'.

So they all looked at Natasha strangely. "Boss, you didn't say you were a movie star."

"This is a mission; you might receive similar missions in the future."

Natasha had no choice but to say helplessly.

She just hadn't expected the mission to turn out this way.

"It's a mission?"

Skye was somewhat excited.

The life of a secret agent seems to be more interesting than she imagined.

Then, the three of them lowered their voices as the movie became increasingly exciting.

The protagonist, Lucy, is coerced by the mob into swallowing CPH4, which causes the bag to rupture, resulting in Lucy absorbing all the drugs.

Then, Lucy seemed like a completely different person.

She transformed from a frail girl into a 'Superman'.

"Cool!"

Skye watched the exciting fight scene. She had initially thought the movie would be a bit boring, but it seemed pretty cool.

Hollywood at that time hadn't yet been bombarded with too much hype, and audiences were still very interested in these visually stunning films.

If we wait more than ten years, it's hard to say what the box office performance of this movie will be like.

"Boss, did you do all of these yourself?"

"Of course, what's the big deal?"

Natasha was also captivated by it.

I didn't realize it when we were filming, but now that it's been edited, the movie is actually quite good.

If only she weren't a secret agent, she could be enjoying celebrity treatment right now.

At this point, she began to regret her decision, and her desire to retire grew stronger.

However, S.H.I.E.L.D.. clearly wouldn't let her retire so soon, so she'll have to stay behind the scenes.

This movie is full of exciting moments, especially later on when Lucy becomes a 'god' who can travel through time and space, becoming omnipotent like a creator god.

Skye and Crystal thoroughly enjoyed this pseudo-science fiction concept.

"Wow, developing the brain is this amazing?"

Crystal even believed it.

Because they really do have superpowers, they are very sensitive to this kind of thing.

It looks fake, but what if it's real?
