2. Chaos
PS: Coaxing my daughter to sleep almost put herself to sleep, and I almost didn't catch up with the update...
"In recent years, the problem of mutant crime has been increasing, and the Senate has been debating legislation against mutants!"
Speaking of this, George subconsciously lowered his voice, and leaned forward slightly.
"And in the process, some senators advocate toughness, while others advocate a peaceful solution, and we, Senator Raymond of New York, are on the centrists."
"Your Uncle George is about to succeed as NYPD commissioner, and Senator Raymond is helping a lot in the back!"
At this time, Saimen interjected on the side and said.
George was going to be the chief of the New York Police Department, and Abner was shocked, if it hadn't been for Simon today, he wouldn't have known the news at all.
And behind George, the director, is Senator Raymond, so most of George's troubles come from this Raymond.
"Yesterday afternoon, a gang of four robbers stormed Mr. Raymond's villa, and of course Lord Raymond was not harmed."
Seeing the look of shock on Abner's face, George hurriedly added.
It's no wonder Abner was shocked, New York is one of the most economically developed states in the United States, and as one of the only two senators in New York State, it can be said that New York State has the largest and most powerful and top group of people.
And George was able to catch up with Raymond's relationship, no wonder in the original plot, he sat as firmly as Mount Tai in the position of the New York Police Commissioner.
"Mr. Raymond wasn't in the villa at the time, so he wasn't hurt in any way."
"But the robbers killed three security guards in the villa area, swept away the entire villa area, and then walked away! Because Lord Raymond is involved, we have suppressed this news. ”
"You're trying for me to get these four people and get the senator's belongings back?"
"No!"
To Abner's surprise, George gave a negative answer.
"In fact, Lord Raymond doesn't care at all whether these four robbers can be caught or not, whether his belongings can be recovered, what he cares about is a silver necklace that the robbers robbed!"
"Necklaces? Or is it silver? ”
"Not bad! The silver necklace had been left to him by his deceased wife, and it was Lord Raymond's most precious possession! ”
"This kind of trivial matter, you can solve it yourself, why are you still coming to me?"
"Alas, if only it were that simple!"
George leaned back on the couch, his right hand rubbing his brow in distress.
"Abner, I'll talk about it next."
The plug on the side took over the conversation directly.
"In fact, three hours later, we found the robbers! Since Lord Raymond personally called, we all took this matter very seriously, so Mike, and Casper me, Mike, and Casper took matters into their own hands! ”
"There were four robbers in total, three of them were habitual bandits, and the remaining one ...... It's a mutant! ”
Mutants? Abner had a smile on his face...... Things are getting a little interesting.
"Dozens of wind knives hit that mutant in a row, and that guy was unscathed!"
"Damn it...... Semen, it's time for you to focus on developing your bloodline! It's a bit of a waste of the serpent's blood for you. ”
Looking at the cautious look on Semen's face, Abner couldn't help but roll his eyes and couldn't help but complain.
"Ahem...... Ahem......"
"It's no wonder that Simon is this, because I was in the middle of the city at the time, I was afraid that continuing to fight would hurt the innocent, and now is the critical time for the whole country to discuss the mutant bill, and Simon's popularity in New York is not low, plus it involves Lord Raymond, for some unnecessary trouble, so I asked them to withdraw at that time!"
"So Uncle George, you mean ......"
"If you want to get things back, the impact can't be too big, or even if the impact is bigger, but it can't be related to the problem of mutants."
"Not bad! That's what it means! ”
Ding dong!

Abner pursed his lips, it was an ordinary level task again, and he had no motivation to do the task at all......
Accept!
At the moment when Abner accepted the task, a message came from the mysterious sixth sense, which seemed to ...... Something interesting will happen during the mission......
……
"Simon, George, beckoning the kids to dinner!"
Through the glass of the kitchen, Carissa saw the three people on the sofa in the living room, and the expression on her face gradually changed from serious to smiling, and then she said loudly in the direction of the living room.
The dinner was hearty, and Carissa's cooking skills were as good as ever.
As soon as he picked up a piece of steak and put it in his mouth, Abner felt a burning gaze that stayed motionless on his body.
"Brother Abner, have you really participated in the King of Fighters tournament in Japan?"
As soon as she looked up, she saw Gwen asking with interest with her big eyes open.
"O'...... Participated in the class of '97. ”
"Why didn't you play in the quarterfinals later, I heard that the game that year was so exciting!"
"yes, yes, Abner was the first to reach the semi-finals that year, and he defeated the white-bearded old man's superpower team, and I was still in the stands at the time!"
Lucy, who was sitting next to Gwen, hurriedly said as if she were showing off.
"Then why didn't Brother Abner participate in the competition?"
Diverted from the conversation, Gwen hurriedly asked Lucy.
"Can't be that guy yet!"
Glaring at Abner fiercely, Lucy said hatefully.
"In '98, Abner received invitations, but he didn't say anything about the injuries and deaths of those martial artists, and it was no longer challenging to participate in the King of Fighters tournament, and then he sold the invitation!"
"Lucy, I remember that you used the money I got from selling invitations to buy a big Barbie doll, and your expression was not like this."
"Humph......"
"Brother Abner, I heard Lucy say that you climbed Mount Everest last year and stayed there for almost half a month, how is the scenery there?"
"The view? The corpse of the summit of Mount Everest, where is there any scenery to speak of! ”
Thinking of the memories of climbing Mount Everest last year, Abner couldn't help but be distracted, and only said faintly after half a ring.
"But it's a great place to hone your will!"
"When you stand on the top of the peak, there is silence all around, only the wind is blowing, the ice and snow are raging, and when you look down from the peak, there is a cloud of mist, you can feel everything under your feet, you can feel the shaking of the earth, the pulse of the world ......"
