Chapter 31: Fire and Shield
The next day, Angel came back and told Ivan about what happened to him and Jessica yesterday.
Jessica also called Ivan to report her safety.
Angel said the strange man had been taken to the police station by him.
Ivan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What if the man wakes up?" β
Angel was also stunned: "Then he must be handcuffed, and he shouldn't be able to make any big waves." β
"Really... I always think that you have cheated people, according to what you said, such a dangerous person, can you handle the handcuffs? Ivan asked.
"Thisβ" Angel scratched her head, realizing that Ivan was right, and that she had pitted people herself.
"Uh... Are you sure those fruit trees don't need care? β
Banner asked as he walked back from the orchard.
He was persuaded yesterday by Ivan, who assured him that no one would be able to discover Banner through scientific means.
Although Banner was quite skeptical about whether Ivan had this ability, he was too tired to run.
He's willing to take a gamble if he can.
In fact, he was right, Ivan's house was injected, and the special signal in the vicinity was interfered with by psionic energy, and even the ground surveillance radar could only detect an illusion.
"Banner, I'm sure, you just need to pick fruit with Angel every day, and Angel, I found out before that you were lazy and used your superpowers to pick fruit."
Ivan looked at Angel seriously, and in the past two years, the two of them knew that using spiritual energy to pick fruits would cause the flesh to be irradiated, affecting the taste and moisture.
Angel had a bitter face: "Ivan, how do you know... I did it when you weren't home! β
Ivan was secretly amused - I have eyeliner, do you think Karen is really yours? Karen is my person~ It's not something that can be bought by a little money and being called a brother~
That's what he thinks in his heart, but he can't betray Karen with his mouth, Ivan said.
"How do I know? You don't know that superpowers have reached a level! Knowing everything! β
"Uh..."
"Banner, if you find out he's using superpowers when picking fruit, be sure to tell me."
"Oh . . . Good. Banner said, scratching his head.
In fact, even if you pick a fruit with superpowers, the fruit is still a fruit, although it has been deprived of some water and nutrients, and it is not fresh...
But it still has a certain taste.
But this is equivalent to buying in the pit, and you can only make a temporary profit.
Sell some unpalatable fruits... In the long run, word of mouth will be affected.
When Ivan gave birth to fruit, others looked at him with ease, as if he was just moving his thoughts.
Who would have thought that Ivan was living with his heart.
Every time, he takes it seriously and grows the fruit with his heart, so that the fruit produced with his heart tastes good and is the freshest.
If it weren't for Ivan's strong imagination, even if someone else had Ivan's strong spiritual ability, growing so many fruit trees at the same time might have very bad results, such as giving birth to a bunch of rotten fruits.
This is where Angel can't do it, Angel can also grow fruit, although he can only grow one at a time, but just such a fruit, what he gives birth to is not delicious.
For example, Apple, Angel gave birth to it, and Ivan also ate it, and it tasted like chewing wax.
Later, Angel dedicated... I went all out to generate it once, and it was a lot better than before, but the quality was still inferior, and I could barely eat it.
...
Near noon, the local police department.
Ivan arrived here in Angel's yellow pickup.
There was a small room to the left of the iron gate of the police headquarters, and the people in the room saw through the window that Ivan had gotten out of the car, so they opened the door and walked out.
"Is there something wrong?" The man was wearing a yellow uniform and was apparently a guard at the police department.
"Ahem," Ivan cleared his throat.
He only came here to see the mysterious ugly man in Angel's mouth, after all, that thing was very dangerous from Angel's description, and the local police department may not have enough power to suppress it.
Angel pitted people.
"Have you taken in a criminal recently? A man who looks ugly? Ivan asked.
"It's not just ugly, uh... Are you a relative of his? The caretaker asked.
"I'm not, but I have to see him, as soon as possible."
"Show me your identity, if you have nothing to do with him, we can't let you see him."
In his left hand, the guard holds a rectangular instrument, something like a scanner, which can scan some identification documents at any time.
"I don't think I need to show those things."
"What?"
"Look at this."
Ivan stubbornly showed Jessica's Heroic Medal.
This thing is an extremely rare medal issued by the authorities, which can be said to be proof of the identity of the hero.
According to Jessica, this thing has a certain amount of authority, and it can be used to fix most of the troubles.
For example, the scene of a crime that is blocked, others can't get close, but heroes can.
For example, running wild on the street, running red lights, and affecting traffic order, others can't, but heroes can!
For example, pinching someone's crotch on the grounds that they don't hide suspicious objects in their pants is not okay for others, but heroes can!
This is how the authorities do good for the convenience of the hero ... A valuable medal made without being bothered by local law enforcement.
Why is it valuable, because it is said to contain the composition of Edelman alloy.
This is what Jessica was awarded after fighting monsters on Fifth Avenue, and her strength and spirit were recognized by the authorities.
So far, it seems that there is not even Iron Man.
But Ivan guesses that Black Widow and Hawkeye should have them.
When the guard saw the badge, his attitude immediately changed: "I'll just say that your temperament is not like an ordinary person." β
He took the medal, touched and scanned it, and after making sure that even the built-in code could be matched, he handed it back to Ivan, signaling that he could go in.
Ivan hung the medal on his chest and was guided all the way to the sheriff's office unimpeded.
When the sheriff saw that Ivan was holding the Medal of Hero, he didn't say anything, just told Ivan that the man was locked up, and if you want to see him, I can have someone take you there.
Ivan said yes, and was accompanied by several police officers to a confinement room.
There was no movement inside, and an old policeman in yellow took out the key and opened the door with a click.
As the door was pushed open, Ivan saw a wrinkled face of a strange man sitting reclining on the bed.
When he saw the door open, he turned his head to look at the crowd and asked.
"Is the woman still there?"
"What?" The old policeman asked.
"The woman, the one in black, the one with the shield..."
"Oh, the one you said sent you... She's gone. Another young policeman said.
"Oh... That's right. The weirdo laughed.
"It just so happens that you're awake too, and you'll be with you later..."
Before the young policeman could finish speaking, he saw a fireball shoot towards him.
With a 'bang', the fireball slammed into Ivan's single-handed psionic shield, but the embers set the three officers on fire.
"Extinguish the fire! Put out the fire! β
"Mick! Roll! β
Although the incident happened suddenly, several people also had experience and rolled on the ground to extinguish the fire as soon as possible.
The fire goes out... It's not because of rolling.
Just because of the nameless wind! The curtains in the corridor are flattened!
Wisps of gray smoke rose, and several people were in rags, their skin charred as charcoal.
But the good thing is that there is still a breath.
The flaming freak stared at Ivan in amazement - if I read that right, he had just created a barrier in front of him to keep the virus from burning?
