Chapter 43: A pair of eyes that see through people’s hearts

Hearing the voice behind him, Charlotte was shocked. Although he did not turn around, he began to think about the other party's identity and how to deal with it.

The first question is who is the other party?

A life returner? Kingpin's men? A policeman? An agent? Or a doctor from a mental hospital who came to arrest him?

When he used the Spider Sense skill card before, this place had always been his main focus, and he had not sensed any malicious approach.

This means that at least it is not an unknown enemy.

After thinking about it, a name suddenly flashed through Charlotte's mind - an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

And he gradually became more determined in this idea.

So how should we respond now?

Charlotte stood there thinking about the problem, while Smith sat leisurely in the chair, his eyes under the sunglasses calmly observing Charlotte's every move.

It was already early morning before he and George arrived, and in order to prepare for the surprise attack, he notified May and Ben only after his arrival.

As he expected, the two of them couldn't contact Charlotte at all, and had no idea where Charlotte was at the moment.

Of course, George, who took the time to go home, also made his own discovery, that is, Gwen next door was also missing.

This made his eyes go dark, his whole body tremble, and his hands and feet shook.

He called Gwen over and over again with his cell phone, and returned to Charlotte's door with a cold face.

Before the call was connected, there was a noise in Charlotte's room.

When he opened the door, he saw Charlotte standing by the window with her back to Smith, her head down, thinking about something.

"Charlotte!" George shouted angrily:

"Where did you go tonight? Why can't I even get through on the phone? And is Gwen with you? Do you know where Gwen is now?"

Charlotte remained silent.

The confident smile on Smith's face became more and more intense.

In his opinion, there was definitely something wrong with Charlotte, and Charlotte had been acting crazy from the very beginning.

The first possibility is that the attack on Arkham Mental Asylum is closely related to Charlotte, and it is even very likely that Charlotte is the insider sent by the Life Returners to explore the way.

He later killed the attacker when he wanted to silence him, becoming the survivor of the Arkham attack, and was attacked again afterwards.

The second possibility is that Charlotte is a super-powered person, whose super powers were awakened when he was attacked, and he killed the opponent in the chase.

Although we don’t know what Charlotte’s superpowers are, the fact that no one has been in the kitchen for more than two hours and the attacker’s miserable death have nothing to do with Charlotte?

It's impossible to explain it no matter how you look at it.

The third possibility is that everything is just a coincidence, Charlotte is just an innocent victim, or there is another person hiding behind him.

So Smith decided to meet Charlotte, because he believed that no one could hide anything from him.

Suddenly, Charlotte turned around and met Smith's eyes. Smith's eyes flickered, and the confident smile on his face froze for the first time.

This made him doubt all his previous judgments, because through the instant change in her eyes, Smith was very sure that Charlotte was definitely not pretending to be crazy or stupid, but was really crazy and stupid.

"Uncle George?" After changing the actor's skill card, Charlotte looked at Smith in confusion, then turned to look at the black-faced George.

"What were you asking me just now?"

Covering his head and pretending to have a headache, Charlotte looked confused and timid.

Smith's familiar appearance made Charlotte believe that he was definitely an agent, and the kind of agent who was always surrounded by bad luck and encountered danger wherever he went.

It seems that his previous abnormality did attract the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D., but everything was within his expectations.

"You know Greg..."

Smith interrupted George before he could finish his question.

He put on a smile that showed everything was under control again, with deep meaning hidden in his eyes. He observed every micro-expression on Charlotte's face with his professional knowledge and qualities.

He had already obtained Charlotte's information, and in his opinion, Charlotte was definitely a smart person.

A smart person who is a little crazy is definitely easier to communicate with than a fool.

"Charlotte~ We have new clues about the Arkham attack, so we came to you again to ask."

After speaking, Smith turned his eyes to Charlotte, carefully examining the micro-expressions on Charlotte's face.

"Ah? What Arkham? I don't know what you are talking about?" Charlotte answered innocently and confusedly.

This answer left both Smith and George stunned.

Looking directly into Charlotte's eyes, they were crystal clear, filled with confusion, hesitation and kindness.

Smith:…

Charlotte's answer was completely beyond his imagination, and the micro-expressions and reactions on Charlotte's face also surprised him, because he actually felt that Charlotte was not lying.

No one can control their micro-expressions. After all, humans are not machines. As for acting skills? How could there be such amazing acting skills in the world?

For a moment, Smith was confused.

"Charlotte!" said George, with a dark face, sternly:

"Now is no time for jokes, have you forgotten your friends in Arkham Asylum?

Only if we catch the real culprit behind the scenes as soon as possible can their souls in heaven rest in peace."

"Ah?" Charlotte tilted her head strangely, looked at George in disbelief and said:

"Uncle George, what are you talking about? What friend? What murderer? Why don't I understand anything?"

After looking at Smith timidly, Shanuo suddenly seemed to have discovered something, looked around, and asked helplessly:

"Wait, what's going on now? Why am I here? I clearly remember that I was handing out flyers on the street just now."

With a horrified expression, Charlotte pulled at the strange clothes she was wearing, and her face turned pale.

"Uncle George, what happened?"

The expression on Charlotte's face changed continuously, and it didn't seem fake, which made George and Smith look at each other.

Seeing the doubt and uncertainty in the other party's eyes, George slowed down his tone and asked:

"Charlotte, do you really not remember anything?"

Looking at Charlotte in front of him, George noticed something unusual.

Because the eyes, the tone, the lowered head, the timid, cowardly, and kind heart all reminded him of another person.

That was Charlotte before he went to Arkham Mental Asylum, the somewhat dull and lonely nerd.

Their eyes met, and George was also stunned, while Charlotte shook her head, with panic and helplessness flashing in her eyes.

That's right, using the actor skill card, Charlotte chose to play the role of herself in the memory given by the system.

Through observation, Smith also believed that what Charlotte said was true, but he also did not give up the test.

He stood up and took off his sunglasses, his blue eyes were clear and shining.

"Charlotte, have you forgotten? In the attack on Arkham Mental Hospital, 27 people were shot to death in just over ten minutes, and you were one of the few survivors..."

Charlotte opened his mouth, his pupils dilated, and the expression on his face paused for a moment. As his pupils shrank, his whole person, both his eyes and temperament, changed abruptly.

"Hee hee hee……"
