Chapter 682: When it’s over, brush off your clothes and go away
"Kneel down!" The gangster with the gun pressed against his head obediently knelt down next to Little Flathead. At the same time, Jack also stuffed the somewhat deformed elbow iron pipe into Johnny's hand.
Meeting his doubtful gaze, Jack tilted his head and said, "Just don't beat him to death."
"Ah!" the cartoonist roared, swung the iron pipe and hit the two people kneeling on the ground headlessly and facelessly. The situation was reversed for a moment. The former victims became the perpetrators, and the originally unscrupulous gangsters became the ones lying on the ground. The pitiful creature was howling and screaming on the ground.
With a "clang", the iron pipe in Johnny's hand fell to the ground, he stumbled to his girlfriend, and put his arms around her. From fear to despair, to the joy of surviving the disaster, and the joy of revenge with his own hands in the end, The two of them hugged each other and cried.
20 minutes later, the originally dark alley was brightly lit by ambulances and police cars. Not only did the night patrol police in North Hollywood rush to the scene after receiving the call, but Tim and Lucy, who had just said goodbye to everyone at the farm not long ago, Also rushed over.
After listening to Johnny's girlfriend intermittently telling the police officer what happened to them, everyone couldn't help but look at the six pieces of garbage that were carried into the ambulance. Originally, they thought Jack's attack was a bit too cruel, but now they felt that it was all too cruel. Killing seems good too.
It turned out that when Johnny Mehall and his girlfriend Vicki Wright left the convenience store, the two were walking and talking as they headed back to their apartment.
On the way, Vicki Wright accidentally mentioned that she found out she was pregnant this afternoon and wanted to see her boyfriend's reaction. As a result, under the impact of this huge joy, Johnny Maihar immediately knelt down at the entrance of the alley and said to her. She proposed and vowed to buy a ring first thing in the morning.
This was supposed to be a very happy thing, but it was interrupted by several gangsters who were hiding in the alley with evil intentions. At that time, Johnny took out all the cash on his body and begged the other party to let them go.
And the answer he got was, "Man, you have more than this, and I bet you don't want to miss this."
Then the two of them were dragged into the alley, and the bearded boy with a crew cut asked Johnny to watch with his own eyes his girlfriend who had just become his fiancée being ravaged by them.
"Good job, old man." Tim patted Jack's shoulder and expressed his sincere appreciation, "The son of a bitch in the lead is called Gran Hill, nicknamed 'Raper', and the women in the surrounding neighborhoods I'll appreciate that crotch blow of yours."
"Well, I didn't do those last few blows." Jack quickly clarified that he could accept the title of Dangerous Detective, but he didn't need the title of Explosive Detective.
At least two of the six gangsters will most likely have to live on liquid food for the rest of their lives. The two left to Johnny to take care of became eunuchs. The remaining one suffered a severe concussion and the other lost three fingers and suffered severe bleeding. The psychological shadow is probably greater than the physical trauma.
Red and Lila enjoyed the whole scene, and it was a thrilling and bloody scene that rivaled Hollywood action movies. They transformed themselves into Jack's fans and volunteered to take Johnny and his girlfriend to the hospital for them.
The next morning, Jack and Jiejie came to the hospital to visit cartoonist Johnny and his girlfriend. Both of them needed a period of rest. Although Johnny's girlfriend Vicki Wright was not injured, she suffered severe shock and just She was pregnant again, and the doctor didn't dare to neglect her. He suggested that she stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation.
Jiejie has already contacted the District Attorney's Office. They are just six gang members who intend to commit murder. Johnny, a cartoonist, can be considered a social celebrity. They will not pursue too much. As for the FBI, where did the FBI come from? , isn’t that the LAPD who arrived in time?
"What do you think of the title "The Dark Knight"?" Johnny asked a little abruptly after shaking hands with Jack and thanking him.
Jack found a bottle on his bedside table to put the flowers they brought, "It was last night's experience that gave you some new inspiration, but doesn't this name belong to Batman?"
"Yes, I wanted to create a superhero who wears a cape and holds two swords. He will wander the dark alleys at night and protect ordinary citizens from thugs.
Maybe there is no need for a knight, just a word, just like my previous "Blue", I plan to name it "Night", it will change my usual style, cruel and bloody, blood for blood , tit for tat, violence for violence. "
The more Johnny talked, the more excited he became. He kept writing and drawing on the paper with the pencil in his hand, and soon sketched out a rough character shape.
"My dear, I think what you need most now is to have a good rest. The doctor said that your internal organs are slightly damaged and you need to rest for a long time." His fiancée Vicki Wright said with a smile from the next bed. They were in the same ward. .
"I think you two should lie down obediently." Jiejie smiled and stopped her from trying to get up, and sat beside her bed, "Is the child okay?"
Vicki Wright shook her head slightly and smiled back. This blonde girl had soft features and a good temperament. It was no wonder that those bastards were interested.
After a few people chatted for a while, Jack and Jiejie were about to say goodbye and leave. Before leaving, Jack not only used the opportunity of shaking hands to perform a long-lasting healing spell on Vicki Wright, but also left two business cards for Johnny, one of which was One of his own and one of Chris's.
Although Johnny, the cartoonist, is not a big hit, he still has a group of quite loyal fans compared to a fledgling writer like Jack.
Comic book adaptations are also one of the sources of material for short dramas. Maybe it would be good if the two parties can reach some cooperation in the future.
Jack stayed in Los Angeles for nearly a week. In addition to accompanying Jie Jie, he also visited the Wilshire branch and the BAU team several times. He also went to Hunter and Didi's house several times.
The two old men are in good health, and a certain old tenant, Joe Mason, is also in good spirits, unlike an old man in his 80s. He even takes the initiative to take Isabel to and from school every day.
In addition to checking their bodies for them, Jack mainly talked about the cases he had experienced over the past year and their future developments. The plot of "Red Flame Battlefield" had not started yet, which made him a little worried.
He was mainly worried that things would involve Old Hunter and Didi. Although they were not in the original plot, now that Joe Mason has become their tenant, it is difficult to say what will happen next.
Jack could only brag as much as possible and show off his abilities in front of the three old men, hoping that they would not leave him alone.
Entrusting Isabel to them also played an insurance role, at least giving them more to worry about. In Jack's eyes, the destructive power of Old Hunter and Didi was no less than that of "R.E." D".
In addition, Jack also asked Joe Mason to help him pay more attention to Lila's uncle bodyguard Brian Mills. Although he has no shortage of system gold coins now, he is still very interested in those rescue plots.
After all, most of Liam Neeson's rescue series are far from the two parts of "Red Flame Battlefield" in terms of influence and destructive power. He is now close to the level of a mid-level cadre in the FBI. , should be able to bear it, probably.
After arranging all this, the seven-day long vacation was coming to an end. After saying goodbye to Jiejie who was reluctant to leave, Jack embarked on a flight back to New York.
