Chapter 22: Boy Scouts and 2 Forced Youth
Late at night, Wall Street, Dawn Investment Company.
Wei Chen stared at the computer intently, tapping his fingers on the table meaningless.
In the entire room, only the pendulum of the "Time Commemorator" (an expensive indoor grandfather clock made in Germany) was moving diligently.
The computer screen, cut into several frames, seems to be monitoring a certain target.
"Looks like our fish has been hooked!"
The corners of Wei Chen's mouth rose slightly.
"Well, Mr. Batman, no, Mr. Eric, can I go back first?"
Cullen sat on the sofa in the corner and asked tremblingly.
The surveillance system Wei Chen was using was made by Cullen.
He created the perfect surveillance system for invisible people by hacking into cellphone microphones and using high-frequency signal collectors for TV and radio.
While staring at Wei Chen, Cullen was apprehensive. He had already committed a number of crimes such as illegal wiretapping and intrusion into the data center of Walter.
If he is found, he will not be sent to Rikers Island Prison, or he will be maimed by those superheroes.
"I hope Mr. Eric can cover me!"
He prayed quietly.
"Oh, I'm really sorry, Cullen, I forgot about myself so much that I forgot the time and you. It's very late, you go back."
Wei Chen stood up, ready to send Cullen out, and picked up a bag on the table, which contained classic tuna sushi.
Stuffing the packaging bag into Cullen's hands, he patted him on the shoulder, "This is the takeout I just ordered, and I haven't opened it yet. You have stayed up with me for a long time, so take it back for a late night snack."
"No, Mr. Eric, you haven't eaten yet, I can't..."
"If you are more polite to me, I will let you stay with me for another hour."
Wei Chen "threatened" him.
"Okay, thank you Mr. Eric."
Cullen quickly gave in.
"If only you could be my brother-in-law."
Before leaving, Cullen whispered something.
"What?"
"No...no, I mean my sister will definitely like tuna sushi."
Cullen smiled embarrassedly, and ran away with the tuna sushi.
"Brother-in-law? I take you as a friend, but you want me to be my brother-in-law. It's really outrageous."
Wei Chen's ears could pick up the sound of butterflies rubbing their wings hundreds of meters away, and of course he could hear Cullen's whispers.
It's just that he hit haha on purpose.
Going back to the company and looking around, I found that the lights were still on.
Who is still working overtime?
Wei Chen felt that this diligent employee should be commended.
With great respect for the workers, Wei Chen walked over lightly.
Through the thin light, I found that the person working overtime was still an acquaintance - Kate Fox.
At this time, she was wearing a white tight top with a brown leather jacket draped over her shoulders, her head lowered, and she was concentrating on a report.
"Hey, Fox."
Although he didn't have the heart to disturb her, Wei Chen felt that it would be better to remind her. No matter how late, he would not be able to catch the last subway.
"Oh! Damn it!"
Kate raised her head sharply, with a frightened expression.
"Sorry to scare you, but it's very late, Fox, you should go back."
Wei Chen pointed to the watch on his wrist.
"Huh!"
Kate let out a long breath, and there was a turbulent wave in her chest.
"This report is a bit of a hassle, so I've been trying to fix it. It'll be done right away!"
Kate explained.
"Trust me, Fox, I don't want to see overtime. Although I applaud your spirit, I still want you to go back first."
"Thank you, it sounds like there is something wrong with my work efficiency."
Kate wanted to say something light-hearted and witty, but instantly felt that it meant complaining to the boss, so she immediately corrected, "No, I mean, I don't like to work overtime either."
Wei Chen:"......"
Kate felt like she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and bury herself in it.
What does this say?
Embarrassing, I shouldn't have spoken!
Kate's mood turned to depression instantly, she had an inexplicable affection for the president. Of course, after all, it is impossible for anyone who gives him a job with an annual salary of 300,000 to not have a good impression of him.
But tonight's remarks may make the president think that he is a person with a problem with his work attitude.
She suddenly felt sorry for herself.
Wei Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with Kate's work attitude. He just thought that this girl was really carefree, like a silly girl.
So he turned the topic around and said, "Haha, I hate working overtime or something, too. Pack up, and that's the end of tonight."
Seeing that Wei Chen didn't seem to mean to blame, Kate's mood rose again, "Yes, President. By the way, did the 'Boy' just leave?"
"Boy?"
Although Wei Chen's English is good, he still doesn't quite understand some English slang.
"It means Boy Scouts! Everyone in the company calls him that."
Wei Chen instantly understood who she was referring to.
Boy Scouts...Cullen really has that kind of demeanor!
Wei Chen felt that this nickname was very suitable for him.
There's one thing Wei Chen and Kate don't know, "Boy" also means second-class youth.
Poor Cullen...
The two walked out of the company and walked down the street facing the bright lights.
At such a romantic moment, Kate suddenly felt a burst of courage. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
A courage that she didn't know how to come.
"Mr. Xavier, you... can I have a cup of coffee with you?"
After she said it, the castle built by the courage in Kate's heart collapsed immediately.
Would you be too deliberate?
She looked at Wei Chen crampedly.
Wei Chen was surprised for a second, then nodded slowly, "Of course, but I have something to do tonight, can I do it tomorrow?"
Although Kate was a little disappointed, her excitement still occupied most of it, she nodded heavily, "Yeah!"
It's not that Wei Chen intentionally refused, but that he really has something to do tonight.
A matter that had to require him to go out in person.
Facing the night wind, he slowly walked towards the invisible man's residence.
At present, all the bait he set has been swallowed by the invisible man.
Next is the time to close the net.
In addition, this trip has another target - Compound No. 5.
As one of Watta's Super Seven, the Invisible Man hopes that his family will be richer and not let himself run away in vain.
The Invisible Man's residence is located in an apartment building at 15 Central Park West in Manhattan.
I heard that the penthouse here sold for $88 million and belonged to the chairman of Citibank.
What a **** of capitalism!
Wei Chen ruthlessly spurned a handful of rotten money capital in his heart.
Walking into the dark side of the alley, Wei Chen opened his backpack and started changing clothes.
In the early stage, you must not rashly use your identity. At least before you kill a headshot girl (a superpower who can blow someone else's head out of thin air), you must be careful to hide your identity.
This is the standard he set for himself.
