Chapter 64: The disappearance of the owl squad
Wei Chen and Madeleine were talking when a middle-aged white man in a suit came over.
"Hi, Alastair."
Madeleine greeted each other kindly.
"Let me introduce to you, Alastair Adana, the chairman of the congregation church, and the founder of Walter. Walter Frederick is Mr. Adana's grandfather."
Madeleine introduced Wei Chen.
Alastair, bearded and looking like a young Wolverine, said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Sounds good, but sadly I don't have any shares in the Water Company anymore."
Then he smiled like a spring breeze, "Mr. Xavier, it's great to meet you. Madeleine said that you are the protagonist of this dinner party. I just kept thinking, where did our protagonist go? I didn't expect to meet here. already."
Wei Chen shook his hand politely, "It's the first time I heard that I'm the protagonist. I'm really honored. I've also heard about Mr. Adana and Jizhong Church. There is nothing more meaningful than helping the lost superhero return to the right path. something happened."
Wei Chen recognized him at first sight, Alastair Adana, the unlucky guy whose head was shot by "headshot girl" Victoria Newman.
I heard that he has dozens of superheroes in the Walter company in his hands, but he not only does not hold his tail, but also tries to interfere with the operation of Walter, and he is ruled by Edgar Stan and Victoria Newman. die.
However, it is a guy who can befriend.
Wei Chen thought to himself while shaking hands with him.
Alastair seemed to like Wei Chen's flattery very much. He released his hand and showed a hearty smile on his face, "Jizhong Church is committed to helping superheroes find their ultimate spiritual destination, purify themselves, and be accepted by the public again. We have always believed that It's a very meaningful thing."
"If Mr. Xavier is interested, we can talk about cooperation."
Alastair also appears to be interested in this newcomer to Wall Street.
"certainly."
Wei Chen looked very happy and exchanged business cards with Alastair.
After chatting with the two of them, Wei Chen walked over to Leslie, who was tasting pastries, holding a wine glass.
Bang!
When passing by a beautiful woman, her feet suddenly slipped and hit a waiter in a white shirt and a black vest.
Although he quickly adjusted his body and did not make himself slip, the wine glasses on the waiter's tray suffered.
Jingle!
The wine glasses on the tray collided with each other, the sound was crisp, and they were about to fall to the ground together with the tray.
Wei Chen stretched out his hand deliberately, and caught the falling tray quickly and accurately, and caught the wine glass at a speed that is difficult for ordinary people to see.
His current neural reflexes and physical agility are far beyond ordinary people, so he can easily do things that ordinary people seem impossible.
Handed the tray to the dumbfounded waiter, ready to leave.
"Please wait a moment!"
The beautiful woman who almost fell suddenly shouted.
Wei Chen turned around and found that this beauty was still an acquaintance.
It was the beautiful reporter who was rescued from the helicopter that night—Lola Ryan!
Laura, who was wearing a purple evening dress and dressed herself up brightly, naturally didn't recognize Wei Chen as Batman.
She suddenly realized that the handsome and agile man in front of her was the interview target of her trip.
I heard that Eric Xavier has never been interviewed by the media. He is mysterious and low-key.
That's why she picked this opportunity, got an invitation letter, and sneaked in to see if she could interview the Wall Street upstart.
Unexpectedly, the opportunity suddenly came like this.
"What's the matter? Miss."
"Excuse me, are you Eric, Mr. Xavier?"
"Yes, is there any problem?" Wei Chen looked at her with interest.
Unexpectedly, this beautiful reporter can recover from the psychological and physical trauma so quickly after experiencing the shadow of the helicopter and go to work.
Do you really deserve to be a journalist?
"I'm Laura Lane, a reporter for CNN's 'Today's News', Mr. Xavier, may I interview you? Just a few minutes."
Laura blinked a pair of big, charming eyes, unconsciously exuding her femininity.
"In a few minutes, yes."
As soon as Wei Chen agreed, Laura quickly took out the recorder from her bag and turned on the switch.
"Mr. Xavier, I heard that you bought TASR Security's initial stock at $5.85, and four months later it went up to $145. You made 100 times your initial investment, and on this deal alone, you Just made $70 million, is the rumor true?"
Laura's eyes sparkled with stars.
Although she doesn't pay much attention to money, she still admires this kind of money-making genius.
The rumors are of course true. Wei Chen took advantage of the Prophet and was almost unfavorable in the stock market.
When you know all the insider and ups and downs of the stock, making money becomes a matter of course, the difference is only how much you earn.
Now, he and Bruce Wayne have one thing in common - rich!
After organizing the language, she was thinking about how to make up her words to deal with her, when the phone suddenly rang.
Made an apologetic gesture to Laura, walked to an empty balcony, and answered the phone.
"Hey, Cullen, what's the matter?"
At this time, Cullen was in the information basement of the manor, staring at the large projection screen to call Wei Chen The big screen displayed the city map of New York.
Cullen stared at the map without blinking, as if confirming a certain coordinate location.
"Mr. Eric, the coordinates of the owl team have disappeared."
Wei Chen used his mobile phone and owl badge to locate, and has been secretly monitoring the owl team.
Although he trusted Huey, he was skeptical of Butcher's loyalty.
"Have the nearby surveillance cameras tracked their location?"
Wei Chen asked with a frown.
"No."
"Then can they get through on their mobile phones?"
"I tried, but I couldn't get through."
"It looks like a bit of trouble," Wei Chen rubbed his chin, "Cullen, send me the last location they appeared before they disappeared."
Wei Chen hung up the phone and walked towards Laura.
"Sorry, emergency, today's interview can't be continued. This is my business card, maybe we can make an appointment to talk again."
Wei Chen handed Laura a personal business card as he spoke.
Although it was a bit regretful, Laura felt that this trip was not in vain after being able to get Wei Chen's business card.
"I hope everything goes well with you, Mr. Xavier."
Laura smiled and said goodbye to Wei Chen.
"thanks!"
Wei Chen greeted Leslie again and asked her to drive back in her car.
When he walked out of the hotel, Cullen happened to send the location information to Wei Chen's mobile phone.
"Kinny Street in the South District of Manhattan? Very good, I'm going to go door-to-door to search, I hope I won't be regarded as a criminal who forcibly broke into a house."
Wei Chen turned off his phone and walked towards the trunk of the car.
There was his full set of equipment.
