Chapter 104: A blind man who wants to mix in the entertainment industry
Today is the day when those bastard classmates are released from prison, well, that is, they don't have to run marathons anymore.
Naturally, President Maya called Matthew, the living radar, into his office.
"Matthew, are there any other gangs coming to our school to recruit people recently?" The Elder asked about this first.
"I'm not sure, President Hansen, the news I've heard is one-sided, and I can only hear one side at a certain moment, so I don't know if it's missing." Matthew explained.
Maya understood Matthew's subtext, which was that so far everything was normal, and no other black organization was looking for the students of the school in the open.
In fact, these days, Maya's shadow clone has also probed the recent situation of Frank's gang, and everything is normal, and there are conflicts between various bosses but there is no sign of direct fire.
Even Jimmy, who has already defected to Wilson, is very honest, and he doesn't even have the action to provoke the struggle of the mountains. The human trafficking seems to have stopped, at least not once. As for their new source of flour, Maya didn't pursue it, it didn't make the slightest sense.
"Is there a large-scale operation in the police department recently?"
Maya thought of the possibility that her listening device could only hear the voice of the police station's public radio station, and the plans of the Manhattan police hierarchy were completely unaware.
"It's... No, they seem to be setting up a new task force, and they haven't even decided on the name and the project they are responsible for, and they said before that they are understaffed, as if it was for this purpose. Matthew said.
The elder thought for a while, and felt that there was still too little information, so he discussed with Matthew, "Let's sort these things out, a. Hell's Kitchen has been in a standoff recently, b. There is no large-scale infighting in the Frank Gang, and no one has come forward to appease and rein in the younger brothers, c. The police department ......"
"Wait, how do you know what is going on inside Frank's gang, Lord?"
With such an obvious situation, Matthew naturally realized it and immediately asked.
"Don't interrupt, keep listening to me! C. The police almost ignored the reshuffle of the New York gangs, and instead used their forces somewhere, code-named it the 'A Incident';d Wilson Fisk on the West Coast, for so long, should have determined Frank's death, but he was ambitious, and still did not enter New York, assuming that he was delayed because of the 'B' incident; e. Recently, a lot of news has been circulating that is unfavorable to mutants, and all the Yanhuang mutants have now been smuggled into Canada; f. Have you noticed that Magneto hasn't made headlines in years? ”
"Matthew, what do you say these things are related?"
Matthew's expression was complicated, he had barely recovered from the shock, and after a while he said, "Probably whether it's 'Incident A' or 'Incident B', it's a mutant incident." ”
"Indeed, it is easy to come to this conclusion when so much information is combined!" Maya said with a smile.
"But I don't understand, President Hansen......," Matthew hesitated, not knowing whether to ask or not.
Maya understood what he was wondering about, and she hadn't intended to have a showdown with Matthew so soon. But the news she got recently made her feel a sense of urgency that the mountain rain was about to come.
Even if Lao Wan ran to the White House to kill Clinton, she would only watch it as news that had nothing to do with her, and maybe give Lao Wan a thumbs up or something.
After all, Lao Wan is just a mutant, not all mutants. She didn't know the percentage of mutants in the total population, even if it was 1 in 10,000, there were tens of thousands of mutants in the United States. Then the number of X gene carriers related to it will increase tenfold, at least hundreds of thousands.
If there is a racial conflict, Maya herself does not think it will be a big problem, but she is not alone. She has parents, a younger brother, relatives, friends, and classmates......
She is not a lonely person without concern, there are many people she cherishes, all of whom are ordinary ordinary people.
Mutants are definitely more than 1 in 10,000, and the battle between the two races is not like a confrontation between two armies. They are all intertwined and interconnected. Maybe one day a mutant warrior will pop up next to him, and he will take revenge on ordinary people.
IQ is not equal to wisdom, and Maya is not a sage with superior wisdom who can see through a person's character at a glance.
But she is not stupid, she remembers a truth, if you want to judge a person, you only need to do two points.
First, pay attention to his every move.
The second point is to be surprised by what he did and said those things.
Matthew Murdoch is the person she has to judge, and her general impression over the years, coupled with the recent careful investigation, has told Maya: Matthew is a person she can trust!
So she decided to be completely honest with Matthew – strangely, to tell him part of the truth!
"Matthew, everything has its many facets, often you think you see the front is all, but in reality you see only the side, a part of it, or a part of it that it wants you to see. So, do you get it now? The elder said mysteriously.
Matthew was taken aback when he heard this, took two steps back and said in a trembling voice: "Could it be that you, the adult, are you the real underworld boss hidden in the dark?" The legendary underworld lady? ”
"Uh, cough, cough, cough cough......" The elder who was about to pretend to be a comparison broke his skills in an instant, and in the end he was almost choked to death by his own saliva.
"Matthew, are you a book you shouldn't be reading lately?" President Maya asked.
Matthew seemed to think of something bad, and his face flushed. In his heart, he secretly scolded his good friend Fudge, saying that he was sending Braille books to him to practice, and if he sent books, he would send books, and he had to send the most popular sadomasochistic novels this year, and he almost took himself to the ditch.
Seeing Matthew's seemingly embarrassed expression, Maya didn't think much of herself, and explained: "Matthew, tell you a secret, I also have superpowers!" ”
In fact, Matthew, who had come to his senses at this moment, had already vaguely had such thoughts, and now he was not surprised to hear Maya's words, "Lord Grow, are you a mutant, or are you an accidental mutant like me?" ”
After thinking for a while, Maya said, "Matthew, have you ever watched a kung fu movie in Hong Kong?" ”
"Could it be that you are practicing Chinese kung fu, my lord?" Matthew asked curiously.
"No, it's stronger than kung fu, similar to immortal law."
Matthew looked confused, I don't understand the adult!
Maya also felt helpless when she saw his expression, the Chinese kung fu Yankees accepted it quickly, but Xianxia basically has no market in the United States today.
"Have you watched Star Wars?"
"See, do you know the Force?"
The elder was a little weak, "If you combine Chinese kung fu with the force of the universe, it is my ninjutsu, do you understand ninjutsu?" Ninja, Ning family (ninja English pronunciation)? ”
Unexpectedly, when Matthew heard this, he actually showed an expression of sudden realization, "Lord, you just said that you are Ning Jia, isn't it over?" Ning Jia: I know, there are a lot of Ning Jia in Kurosawa's movies, I like it very much, and later I also learned about Ning Jia in Japan. Through his detailed depiction of Ning Jia, Akira Kurosawa reveals the conflict and impact between human nature and soul... Exploring the fundamental problems that human beings have been unable to avoid since time immemorial: conscience, turmoil, hypocrisy, ethics, greed, fear, humility, ......"
"Stop, stop, stop, stop, the analysis is so deep, do you still want to be a director?"
"Actually, my dream as a kid was to be a great photographer!"
"But you're blind now!" Maya brutally tells the truth.
"Uh...... Actually, actors can do it too. ”
"I'm sorry, you're Matthew Murdoch, not Matthew Horner!"
"Who's Matthew Horner?"
"A big bull, born at the starting point, talented, you can't compare!"
