Chapter 41: The natives are fearless
The Invisible Man, a member of the Super Seven, disappeared on the seventh day.
Watta, Crime Analysis Unit.
Anika, the technician, is staring at the computer in a daze.
Her usual job is to monitor the streets and alleys of New York City by using the satellite network system of Walter Company, and report any crime immediately.
Boring work, but always facing the computer screen.
Anika has been working overtime for more than five hours in a row.
There was a strange smell of sweat in the room, which was the smell of the technician opposite her.
Like yogurt thrown into a dung bucket and fermented for a hundred days.
The light was so dazzling that she could hardly open her eyes.
She really wished that her black-rimmed glasses could be replaced with sunglasses.
After taking a sip of Red Bull, he swallowed it with difficulty. There was acid reflux in his stomach, as if ice water was in his stomach. This feeling of ice and fire made her want to vomit.
Just as she was bemoaning her stomach, she was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.
Looking back, he was a native of the motherland with a strange smile on his face.
Anika nervously clenched the Red Bull in her hands.
She is both respectful and afraid of the company's superhero top brand - the motherland.
Especially the eyes of the other party, fierce, crazy, and likely to kill at any time.
And that dangerous smile that looked perfect but felt fake anyway.
It would make her shudder.
"Motherland... welcome, welcome to the criminal analysis department. You... do you want to drink Red Bull?"
Anika wanted to slap herself. She was too nervous, her brain was short-circuited, and she didn't know what nonsense she was talking about.
The natives didn't care about this. He bent down and asked Anika, "Have you found the invisible man?"
"No, but the security personnel have already gone to him."
The native looked directly into Anika's eyes, "He has been missing for almost a week. I can simply assume that your abilities are here. I will find him myself, so tell me his last location."
"Uh..." Anika hesitated, "Why don't I call Ms. Stillwell first? Then I..."
"No-no-no. You're talking to me, looking into my eyes."
The natives pressed Anika's shoulders, and the fake smile on her face disappeared.
Annie swallowed, "I still think..."
"what's your name?"
"Annika, sir, Anika."
The native let go of Anika's shoulders, "Anika, that's a nice name. Listen, Anika, I'm from the homeland, I can do whatever the **** I want, understand? Now, the invisible man The last location, tell me!"
Annie looked at those dangerous eyes and nodded involuntarily.
After coming out of the Criminal Analysis Department, the motherland met Queen Maeve who was waiting for him.
"The Invisible Man finally called me and said that a person related to the Court of Owls had been found, and then he disappeared."
"Hmm," the native nodded, "are you trying to say that his disappearance is related to the Court of Owls?"
Queen Maeve had a worried look on her face, "If this is the case, he must have found some clues and was imprisoned or killed by the gang. He knows too much, and the gang will definitely not let it go... .."
"Are you trying to persuade me not to go too deep? Maeve, this is not like your style." The native smiled, "Please, as long as I want to do it, there is nothing I can't do in this world. I don't believe that People who hide their heads and show their tails can block me."
He exudes an air of self-confidence and domineering from the inside out.
"Our opponents, you don't know them."
Maeve sighed, "The Invisible Man said that in the court of owls, there is a high-level executive of the Water Company. If that is true, our every move must be under the surveillance of each other. I always think that that night, the other party used sound waves. The maker attacked me, not necessarily to give me a warning."
"Warning you not to mind your own business?"
The natives snorted disdainfully, "You think too highly of each other, Maeve."
"Don't you think so too?"
Maeve walked over and stared into the eyes of the motherland. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have passed Ms. Stillwell and acted without authorization. If you did this, it showed that you also began to distrust the senior management of Water Company."
The native raised his jaw slightly, his eyes narrowed, "Maeve, you are very smart, but don't try to guess my thoughts. Because, that's a very dangerous behavior."
He reached out his hand and squeezed Maeve's chin lightly.
"Now, I'm going to check where the invisible man last appeared. Would you like to go with me?"
Maeve shook her head, "Let's act separately! I think where you go, you will definitely get nothing."
"why?"
"A woman's intuition."
"Look!" The face of the motherland put on a charming smile again, "Maeve, you are sometimes clever and bold, acting according to reasoning and careful logic. Sometimes you are reckless and impulsive, acting entirely on intuition and experience. Character, I really love you to death!"
"Thank you, but I have to go! See you later!"
Maeve waved her hand and strode out of the corridor.
Leaving behind the people of the motherland who stood in the same place and didn't know what to think.
......
The place Maeve went to investigate was Benson Hall.
Because she heard that this place was the most frequented place before the invisible man disappeared.
Chinatown in Benson Hall, Brooklyn, also known as "Eighty Sixth Street".
The subway viaduct covers the entire road. Whenever the subway passed by, the huge roar was deafening, the ground shook, and it seemed that even the air was shaking.
Chinatown, which is prosperous with the subway, exudes vigorous vitality at night.
The bustling crowd in the night market and the Chinese signboards swaying gently in the wind constitute this bustling and lively commercial street.
In a quiet alley with dim street lights, a black man dressed as a hippie was graffiti on the wall.
A middle-aged Chinese woman passing by saw the graffiti on the wall and frowned, "Sir, please stop your actions. Otherwise, I will call the police immediately, because the graffiti on the wall has already involved racial discrimination!"
The words that the blacks graffitied on the walls were words that were obviously insulting to China, such as "Chinese people get out!" and "Chinese locusts".
As a Chinese, she certainly won't turn a blind eye.
The hippie black man came up and squinted at her, "How about otherwise? Chow!"
"Chow" means "Chinese dog".
"You... I want to call the police!"
The woman with her lips trembling with anger prepared to take out her mobile phone from her satchel to call the police.
"Do you think I'm an idiot? I'll ask you to call the police, China Grandma, and hand over your money. If you want to get along with yourself, come and try to resist this thing in my hands."
The black man took out a pistol from his waist and aimed it at her.
An argument about racial discrimination suddenly turned into a sinister robbery, which she didn't expect.
So much so that he was stunned for a while, standing stupidly without any response.
The black man came up cursing and preparing to rob, but he didn't expect another uninvited guest in the alley.
"If you dare to act rashly, I will break your nose!"
The uninvited guest in the shadows threatened the black people.
