Chapter 144: Anger

Tony learned at the charity event that his company had not stopped international arms sales as he had announced, but was still engaged in the sales of weapons.

Upon hearing the news, Tony Stark was furious. He ran outside the event to find Obadiah, only to learn from him that it was Obadiah who had applied to the board to have him banned from working.

After receiving this news, Tony was extremely angry and left the charity event, returning to his villa.

Meanwhile, Coulson, after seeing Tony Stark leave, immediately contacted Barbara, who was undercover in Charles Agency.

Barbara, who was resting in the room at the agency, saw the special message on her phone and immediately knew it was Coulson's request for contact.

Barbara walked to the door of the room, gently opened it, and quietly glanced around the corridor to ensure that no one was nearby.

After confirming that there was no one in the corridor, Barbara returned to the room and took out a sphere from her backpack. She operated the button on the sphere and then placed it beside her.

An invisible magnetic field with a diameter of one meter instantly appeared, enveloping Barbara, forming a sphere of magnetic field. 

The internal voice was unable to transmit to the outside due to the interference of the magnetic field, but it did not affect communication within the magnetic field, including talking and making phone calls.

After doing all this, Barbara immediately took out her specially made satellite phone, entered a series of codes, and dialed it.

Coulson, who had already returned to the headquarters, saw the call from the Mockingbird marked on his phone and immediately answered it.

"Coulson, what's the emergency?"

"A pet dog appeared by Tony's side, with the same emblem on its forehead as Rock Lee and the others. Have you found out why such a pet dog with a special emblem appeared by Tony's side?"

"And also, have you investigated the meaning behind the emblem on this pet dog over these days?"

As he spoke, Coulson also sent Barbara a photo, which was of the ninja dog, Parker.

Listening to Coulson's two consecutive questions and seeing the information on her phone, Barbara replied calmly, "I haven't been here for long, and I'm not sure what you're referring to about the pet dog. I haven't seen any pets in the office."

"But because I'm in charge of accepting and registering commissioned tasks, I have gained some preliminary understanding of this emblem."

In the mission scroll, Barbara had also seen the same leaf emblem.

Through communication with the five people in the office over this period, Barbara discovered that the kid named Uzumaki Naruto was the most easily fooled, and she had extracted a lot of useful information because of it.

"The emblem on that badge is the symbol of Konoha Village, a hidden ninja village."

"The person with this emblem is a ninja who graduated from this hidden village, and only those who pass the ninja assessment at the school will be given the badge by the hidden village."

"This is the information I have learned. As for the photo you sent me, I have just seen it, but I don't know why a dog can wear that ninja emblem as well."

Upon hearing Barbara's words, Coulson immediately spoke, "Barbara, tomorrow morning's news channel will broadcast the news of Tony attending the firefighter charity event." 

"The news will feature a close-up shot of the pet dog beside Tony. You can take the opportunity to ask around in the office and observe their reactions."

Upon hearing Coulson's plan, Barbara thought for less than a second and found the idea worth trying. She replied, "Understood, I will quickly find out the ins and outs of the situation and send you all the information I have collected so far."

After receiving the latest intelligence from Barbara, Coulson logged into the secure intranet and began downloading the emails transferred by Barbara.

Meanwhile, after ending the call, Barbara put away her satellite phone and deactivated the jammer, stowing it in a compartment of her backpack.

Barbara was unaware that her actions had already been noticed by her neighbor, Shizune, who lived next door. 

They were separated by just a wall, and Shizune was a high-level ninja. 

Although her hearing was not comparable to that of superman, her sense of hearing was exceptionally developed. 

But just now, the sound of Elena Morse's heartbeat and breathing suddenly disappeared. Shizune thought that she might have been attacked. She then opened the window and quietly walked along the wall.

Shizune's body hung on the outer wall, and through the window, she noticed Barbara's unusual behavior. Instead of breaking in directly and capturing Barbara, she returned to her room, opened the door, and walked toward Charles's room.

At this moment, Charles, who had been excited by the gains, had just calmed himself down when he heard a knock on the door. Opening it, he saw that it was Shizune and asked curiously, "Is there something you need?"

Shizune had no intention of talking outside the door and gestured for Charles to enter the room.

Seeing this, Charles became even more curious and stepped aside to let Shizune in. After closing the door, he walked up to Shizune and asked curiously, "What happened?"

Shizune described what she had seen and told Charles her speculation.

Elena Morse was a spy!

Listening to Shizune's account, Charles's expression turned grim. He knew that spies would infiltrate sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon. 

Moreover, it was not a spy from the other high elders' faction. Judging by the technology they used, it was likely that they were not an ordinary agency like the CIA or FBI. It was probably either Hydra or S.H.I.E.L.D.

Suppressing his anger, Charles said, "Notify all the ninjas and the Adjudicators. We will have a meeting in the combat room downstairs in half an hour. Remember to bring Elena Morse."

"Yes!" Shizune replied, then left the room to inform the others to gather.

Watching Shizune leave and thinking about the spy lurking around, Charles's heart burned with anger. 

This was a provocation against him. 

Regardless of who it was, anyone who provoked him would face his retaliation. Whether it was the High Elders, Hydra, or the so-called S.H.I.E.L.D., he would not rest until he had a satisfactory answer to this matter!
