"Whew~"

Closing the last page of the information in her hand, Sidis let out a long sigh of relief, twisted her neck, which was stiff from sitting for a long time, and casually picked up the already cold coffee on the table and took a sip.

Turning her head, her gaze swept over the wall clock in her office.

“22：14。”

"It's so late!"

The time displayed on the clock made Sidis look surprised, and she was so engrossed in the analysis of the case that she lost track of the time.

"It's time to go."

Gulping down the last sip of coffee in her cup, Sidis swept across her messy table and casually picked up the coat from her chair and draped it over her body.

This is a dangerous time for most people living in New York, and even more so in Hell's Kitchen.

Especially for women like Sidis, she still goes her own way, often working until midnight. It's not that Sidex trusts the security of Hell's Kitchen much, it's purely because she has a gun.

Dudu –

Open the door and get in the driver's seat.

Sidis started the car as she pulled on her seat belt, but her eyes inadvertently swept over the rearview mirror.

However, it was this handful that made the expression on Sidis's face pause.

Subconsciously, he put his hand into the inner lining of his shirt.

"If I were you, I wouldn't do it."

Noticing the movement of Sidis's hand, the figure sitting in the back seat spoke silently.

"Who are you?"

Sidis naturally couldn't give up her actions because of the words that appeared in the car, one of her hands was still in her blouse, and she said with the same expression: "If it's a car thief, then I have to tell you quite regretfully, you have found the wrong target." ”

"Of course, if you get out of the car now, I can promise you not to pursue what happened."

"Sidex Kelly" Misty "Knight. ”

In the face of Sidis's persuasion, the man in the back seat called out her name to himself.

Hearing the man call out his name, the expression on Sidis's face turned solemn, the hand holding the handle of the gun in his jacket tightened slightly, and his tone became cold: "Who are you, why do you know my name?!" ”

"Or, who told you to come to me?"

As a police detective, Sidis has sent many gang members and criminals to prison, so hearing the other party call out her name, it is natural to associate her with the possibility of revenge.

"Matt, I need you to help me connect with the Defenders."

However, the man's next words made the expression on Sidis's face change again.

It was also at this time that a strong smell of blood penetrated the tip of Sidis's nose in the driver's seat, and as a police officer, she was obviously no stranger to this smell: "Are you injured?" ”

It was only then that the man who had been hiding in the back seat revealed his appearance.

It was Frank, the punisher who had been attacked by the 'Golden Combination' not long ago.

At this time, the situation of the punisher was not very good, he clutched his chest, there was a visible burn on his face, and a large amount of blood oozed from the bandages wrapped around his body as he spoke, directly rendering it a bright red hue.

Obviously, although he escaped from the hands of the 'Golden Harmony', he also paid a great price.

"Who are you, and why do you know about my relationship with Matt?"

The man's appearance was unexpected by Sidis, but she did not relax her vigilance because of the other party's injury, but asked more cautiously. As one of the few existences who know Matt's super daredevil's identity, Sidis has always kept this secret as much as possible, even the partner who has the closest relationship with him has not revealed the news.

"I've fought alongside defenders."

Covering the wounds on his body, Frank explained in an increasingly weak tone: "Therefore, I know Matt's identity, and at the same time, I also know that you are a close collaborator with him." ”

As a retired captain in the U.S. Marine Corps, Frank is clearly not stupid, on the contrary, he is quite good at combat intelligence. Even, because of this, S.H.I.E.L.D. once sent out an invitation, hoping to join S.H.I.E.L.D., but at that time, Frank was bent on getting along with his family. So after retiring, I chose to live as a military training officer.

It's just that I didn't expect that my wife and children would be shot by the other party on the spot because they witnessed a gang lynching ** during a dinner in the park one day.

Later, after being discharged from the hospital, Frank, who was lucky enough to escape, used his intelligence system to find out the murderers of his wife and children and resorted to the law, in an attempt to get justice for his dead wife and children. But he didn't want the gang organization to escape punishment through various channels and legal loopholes, so that Frank, who was completely desperate for justice, decided to seek justice for his wife and children in his own way in order to avenge his wife and children, thus launching a cruel revenge method that kills any criminal.

“…… I need to contact Matt and tell him that Kim ......"

Covering his wounds, Frank tried to say something more, but the severity of the injuries and the profuse bleeding left the punisher in an unprecedentedly weak state.

It was difficult to tell him about his relationship with Matt, and before he could reveal the reason for contacting Matt, Frank felt that his eyes were dark, and the next moment the whole person had lost consciousness and passed out.

Bang –

"Are you okay?"

Hearing a dull voice coming from the back seat, Sidex quickly turned around and asked.

Unfastened the seat belt on her body, she still held the handle of the gun with one hand and carefully leaned out of her body, and after repeatedly confirming that Frank had really fainted, she relaxed a little and let go of the palm of the gun she had been holding.

"What's going on?"

Seeing Frank fainting in her car, Sidex shook her head helplessly.

She gritted her teeth and leaned out of the driver's seat, reaching out to lift Frank up from the car with great difficulty. I was about to put the other person in the rear seat. However, the face of the man in his hand made the hand that Sidis had been holding tremble, and almost made Frank in front of him fall again.

"Punisher!"

As a police officer who has been in charge of investigating the punisher's case, Sidis is naturally no stranger to his appearance.

In fact, not long ago, she had just finished reading an entire analysis of the Punisher's case, which clearly featured images of the punisher during the battle.

It's just that Sidis never thought that the punisher, who had been searching for clues, would actually appear in his car in this way.

Looking down at the unconscious punisher in front of her, Sidis's heart fell into confusion.

If she had found the punisher before, she would definitely not hesitate to arrest him, however, after hearing the words of the other party in the car before, Sidis was obviously a little shaken.

Seeing the punisher covered in wounds in the back seat, a hesitant expression appeared on Sidis's face, which quickly changed to a determined color.

……

"Lately I've been wondering, Luke, if we made the right decision to kill Kim in the first place."

Hell's Kitchen somewhere, ended their respective battles.

Matt's expression wasn't so good.

Faced with Hell's Kitchen, which has been plunged into unprecedented chaos by Kim's death, Matt begins to doubt his approach.

"Maybe I shouldn't have done it, maybe it's the best fit for Hell's Kitchen."

"No ifs, Matt."

Looking at the super daredevils who fell silent, Luke Cage couldn't help but shake his head: "You should know better than me Matt, Jin Ji's existence is like a vicious circle for Hell's Kitchen, he controls all the gangs in Hell's Kitchen, it seems to bring peace, but all this is based on Jin Ji's evil will, under Jin Ji's control, every day innocent people die for this, ignorant children go astray, under the control of evil forces, There is no way to breed true peace and hope. ”

"What's more, Kim had become an evil vampire at that time, and if he hadn't been killed, I couldn't imagine what would have happened to Hell's Kitchen next, maybe worse than the situation in front of me."

Although Luke Cage's words didn't make much sense, they somewhat changed Matt's dull mood due to the frequent gang battles in Hell's Kitchen during this time.

"Maybe you're right, Luke."

Hearing Matt's words, Luke Cage couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and showed his trademark smile.

"Speaking of which, what about Danny?"

Sweeping his gaze over the battle scene in front of him, Luke Cage couldn't help but ask.

"Danny hasn't been doing well lately, and I can feel it when I was playing before, and his strength seems to be a little bit of a problem."

Under the increase in ripple power, Matt's super senses are more acute, and he can even detect the changes in the power of the iron fist in Danny's body.

"Can we help?"

Hearing Matt's answer, Luke Cage immediately said.

"It's a pity."

Shaking his head, Matt said in a deep voice.

"According to Danny, the power of the Iron Fist comes from the user's heart, which means that no one else can help him much except Danny himself."

As a battle together, Matt naturally wanted to help Danny a little as well. However, obviously, the power of Iron Fist is quite magical, and even Matt, who already has the power of ripples, can't help him much.

"Yes."

In this regard, Luke Cage also shook his head slightly, and opened his mouth to say something more, when he suddenly noticed a bright yellow laser flashing on the opposite side.

"Be careful!"

Seeing the flickering laser, Luke Cage instinctively reached out and blocked Matt's face.

……

"Whew~"

Immersed in his own heart, Danny took a deep breath and tried to feel the power of the iron fist within his body.

Stretching out his fists and opening the fists that gradually shimmered, Danny's face couldn't help but show a smile of excitement.

However, before the smile on his face could bloom, the next second, the power of the iron fist in his hand was like a flickering dim light, flickering continuously and getting dimmer and finally disappearing into Danny's hand.

"Still doesn't work?"

Looking at the power of the iron fist that disappeared again in his hand, the look of regret on Danny's face overflowed.

In fact, since the battle with Kim, Danny began to feel that there was something wrong with the power of the Iron Fist from Kunlun in his body.

The power of the iron fist on his body comes from Kunlun, and it is a powerful force that belongs to the Kunlun Guardian Battle.

However, after Danny gained the power of Iron Fist, he did not become Kunlun's guard in the way Kunlun originally set, on the contrary, Kunlun who fled from him, abandoned his mission and came to New York to escape the fate of Iron Fist for thousands of years. From this point of view, in fact, there is a certain degree of problem in Kunlun, after all, if the Iron Fist is a powerful force belonging to the guardians of Kunlun according to them, then they should be cautious, rather than choosing an irrevocable existence like Danny as the successor of the power of the Iron Fist.

"Perhaps, I should go back to Kunlun, maybe ......"

Looking down at his hands looming in the light of the power of the Iron Fist, a look of hesitation flashed in Danny's eyes.

"No, I can't go back, the power of the Iron Fist also comes from Kunlun, but this is not my mission."

Shaking his head, Danny quickly suppressed the thought in his heart. For Kunlun, Danny's emotions are mixed, he is grateful to Kunlun for giving him a powerful iron fist, but he is also afraid of the heavy burden and mission that Kunlun requires.

Since he chose to flee from Kunlun, it can be seen that Danny himself does not have much sense of the so-called Iron Fist's mission.

Although Kunlun gave Danny the power of an extraordinary iron fist, it did not enhance his heart, and at the same time, the so-called mission guardian and other thoughts instilled in him were obviously encountered by the situation of water and soil, not only did not play the slightest role, but on the contrary, the heir of the billions of family fortunes had a heart of escape.

Shaking his head to suppress thoughts about Kunlun, Danny closed his eyes and refocused his spirit on the power of the iron fist in his body.

If the power of the Iron Fist is related to one's own heart, then if my heart is strong enough, will I be able to exert the power of the Iron Fist again, or even more than before......

After a few minutes, feeling the power of the iron fist in his body, which was still not noticeably changed, Danny opened his eyes.

Obviously, it wasn't just Kunlun who looked down on Danny, but even he himself overestimated his own abilities.

A person who chooses to avoid the mission instead of facing it bravely cannot have a too firm heart in itself.

Frowning, Danny genuinely pondered what he should do with the power of the Iron Fist again.

Boom –

With this huge explosion, a huge body appeared in front of him with a huge roar.
