Chapter 036: Self-Fabrication, Most Lethal

Triskelion Building-

In the office of Nick Fury, Director of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division (S.H.I.E.L.D.), Phil Coulson was reporting on the mission.

"Director, these are the psychological profiles and character assessments of both Charles Doyle and Rock Lee conducted by psychological experts."

"This is a report on Rock Lee's strength and speed from the Scientific Academy based on surveillance videos."

"These are the latest intelligence on Charles Doyle and the video captured by a miniature camera during our last conversation."

"This is the result of psychological experts, behavior analysts, lie detection experts, and other analysts evaluating the authenticity of Rock Lee's information in the video."

Coulson placed the files he held on Nick Fury's desk one by one.

At this point, Nick Fury reached out and picked up a document, then began reading it. He instructed, "Coulson, share your analysis."

"Director, based on my interactions and the information obtained from Rock Lee, I don't recommend forcibly taking him away."

"According to the information provided by him and my analysis, this child named Rock Lee is likely not the kind of ordinary Asian teenager we previously speculated about, with no background." 

"It's highly probable that he's someone cultivated by an organization with rich heritage."

As he spoke, Coulson took out several photos from the documents. The pictures included not only Rock Lee but also Iruka Umino and Uchiha Sasuke.

Coulson pointed at the forehead protectors on Rock Lee's waist, as well as those on Iruka Umino and Uchiha Sasuke's foreheads, and said, "We haven't found specific information about this symbol, but all three individuals wear the same emblem."

"Additionally, all three are of Asian descent. I boldly speculate that these three individuals most likely come from the same place."

"As for why they're following Charles Doyle and made him their guardian, we don't know."

Hearing Coulson's analysis, Nick Fury nodded repeatedly. He then took out the information on Charles Doyle and read it carefully.

From being adopted to becoming a registered assassin at the Continental Hotel, and then, at the age of 18, killing his foster parents and venturing alone in the Continental Hotel.

Looking at the information, Iruka Umino appeared beside him when Charles Doyle was 19 years old. At the age of 20, Uchiha Sasuke and the Assassin Brotherhood's Ginny also appeared beside him. At 21, the young Rock Lee appeared.

Except for Ginny, the identity information of the other three was forged for them by Charles Doyle at the Continental Hotel.

After closely examining Charles Doyle's information, Nick Fury spoke, "Two years ago, Charles was a gun-wielding assassin. However, since a guy named Iruka Umino appeared, he quickly made a name for himself in the assassin world."

"He even became a ninja who uses cold weapons."

"Hmph!"

Nick Fury snorted and said, "The Hand, a bunch of underground rats, can't stay put in Japan. They've secretly sneaked over here."

"No wonder they moved to wipe out the Assassin Brotherhood. This grudge has been going on for quite a while."

Evidently, Nick Fury regarded everyone, including Charles Doyle, as members of the Hand. After all, there weren't many people worldwide who claimed to be ninjas and were exceptionally skilled, except for that group.

For the backgrounds of Rock Lee and the others, he even considered them to be products cultivated by the Hand. The only thing that remained unknown was which finger of the Hand they were under.

"Coulson, there's no need to make contact with these people. Members of the Hand aren't worth recruiting."

"Store all this information and handle it with a security level of 4."

Upon hearing the Director's opinion, Coulson stepped forward and collected all the documents. He then asked, "Should we recall the personnel stationed there?"

"Recall them. Our elites shouldn't be wasting their time there."

…

The Continental Hotel-

Charles sat with Ginny in the dining area, both of them smiling while eating steak.

Meanwhile, Winston sat on the adjacent sofa, reading a newspaper.

Ginny speared a small piece of meat with her fork, placed it in her mouth, and chewed slowly while her eyes remained on the man in front of her.

After swallowing, Ginny picked up a napkin, gently dabbed her lips, and then spoke, "Charles, you seem to be in a good mood!"

Hearing Ginny's words, Charles thought to himself: Today is truly a good day. He got 50 gold coins from signing in earlier, and there's another good show to come later. Of course, his mood is good.

Charles smiled and said, "Today is a good day, and an interesting one at that."

Before Ginny could respond, Charles turned to Winston sitting next to him and said, "Winston, today is going to be an interesting day. He will change some things that seem unchangeable!"

"What do you say, Winston?"

Winston shook the newspaper slightly, then calmly said, "Mr. Charles, I hope everything goes as you wish!"

Ginny shot Charles a reproachful look, annoyed that he was speaking in riddles again.

Seeing Ginny's reaction, Charles chuckled, "Ginny, don't worry, there's a good show coming later."

After explaining it to Ginny, Charles started devouring the steak on the table, not saying anything more.

Ginny picked up her wine glass, took a sip, and then gazed at the man in front of her who had captured her interest.

This man always had many secrets and often spoke in riddles, making it hard to figure him out. Moreover, his strength was like a black hole. Just when you thought you understood everything about him, you'd find out you had only scratched the surface.

Thinking about this, Ginny couldn't help but cross her legs...

About half an hour later-

A voice came from upstairs, "Winston."

A slightly disheveled figure appeared before everyone. Winston, who was sitting on the sofa, looked up at the person upstairs and said, "Mr. Antonio!"

Winston's tone was slightly mocking, "It seems you had a great night!"

Glancing at Charles next to him, he said to the man approaching, "I guess you're here to lay low."

Ginny caught Winston's expression and silently communicated with Charles, "Is this what we're here for, fun?"

Charles didn't say anything, just nodded silently.

Santino D'Antonio walked up to Winston, his hands in his pockets, and said, "I want to revoke his membership status at the hotel!"

"Immediately, right now!"

Winston looked at the anxious Santino calmly and said, "From a procedural standpoint, Mr. Wick has not violated any rules."

Seeing Winston's resistance, Santino D'Antonio immediately became angry and said, "You should know that I'm now a member of the High Table. I have the authority to command you..."
