"I'll give you a minute to explain, and a little later, all the police in New York will arrive." Misty's gaze swept over everyone present, and she said in a deep voice, "So I need you to answer simply, how long do you need me to delay you?" ”

After Misty finished speaking, everyone present was stunned, why did her position suddenly change, everyone looked at each other, not knowing whether to believe her or not.

At this moment, suddenly, the lights outside penetrating the basement floor suddenly went out, and Misty took a few steps back, retreated into the basement and looked outside, I don't know when, the lights of all the surrounding buildings were all extinguished.

In fact, it's not these buildings nearby, the whole of Manhattan, and even the whole of New York, all the buildings are centered on the Midtown Circle Financial Building, and the moment Daniel Rand opened the iron fist seal of I don't know how many generations ago, all of them were powered off!

"We've got to go!" Luke Cage explained a few words to Misty, then turned to the crowd, and then walked directly into the elevator, and the others followed one by one, and Misty couldn't help but change her face when she saw the gray-green package Colleen was carrying.

After entering the elevator room, Luke Cage was the last to be left behind, and only after everyone had entered, did he use an iron pipe to lock the elevator door, except for someone with extraordinary abilities like him, no one else wanted to open it easily.

At this time, Misty was the only one left outside the elevator room, and even Claire followed into the elevator room.

Suddenly, there was a rush of alarm bells outside, and a large number of police cars were parked outside the Midtown Circle Financial Building, and now the chief detective of the Hamley Police Department is now convinced that there is a big thing going to happen about the things that Luke Cage, Matt Murdoch and others said.

In fact, the power outage in the whole of New York at the same time is already a very significant event, and the starting point of this incident is the financial building in the middle circle in front of them, and they have found out that the power outage in the entire area is here.

The chief detective of the Hamlet Police Department is now in a mood of regret and regret, regretting that he was not able to ask the reason for such a major matter from the mouths of Luke Cage and others, so that he was not able to prevent this incident in time, and even he was not able to seize this opportunity to get a promotion and a salary increase; As for hating, he now hates Luke Cage and the others very much, their mouths are too strict, and they don't show any mouth.

"Don't move." A policeman broke into the basement, found someone inside, and raised his gun before he could see it.

"Don't fire!" The chief detective's voice came from behind the policeman, and he took a flashlight on Misty before ordering the policeman, "Damn, put down the gun, don't you see that it's your own person?" Knight, where did you just go? ”

Misty said calmly, "I suspect they might be here, Captain, so I'll come down." ”

"Are they here, then?" The chief detective said, waving his hand behind him, followed by a group of policemen walked in, pistols in their hands, loaded bullets, and cautiously groped their way into the underground space.

Misty nodded at the chief detective and said, "They were here, but the power ran out as soon as I got here, and they were gone." ”

The chief detective frowned, there was something wrong with Misty's words, but just as he was about to ask, a policeman on the side suddenly said to the chief detective: "Captain, there is movement in the elevator shaft!" ”

The chief detective immediately forgot to ask Misty to continue questioning, he turned his head to look at the door of the elevator room, several of his men were trying to open the elevator room with all their might, but no matter how hard they pushed and pulled, the elevator room did not move, as if it had been welded to death.

At this time, inside the elevator room, Colleen finally put down the bag in her hand, and then showed the contents in front of everyone, looking at the bag full of explosives, Jessica couldn't help but say in disbelief: "No! ”

"We find Danny and get him out." Colleen raised her head, looked at the crowd and said, "But if we don't destroy the Hand Clan, they'll all be hunted down sooner or later, Jessica, you investigated that designer, right?" ”

"Don't blame me for all this." Jessica now sensed that things were out of control, and she was a little unhappy with the current situation, not forgetting that the explosives were the ones she had found in the first place.

"That's not what I meant." Colleen took John Raymond's blueprints out of her bag and showed them to the crowd, saying, "He was planning how to blow up this building." ”

Jessica had already seen this design drawing, and she also knew John Raymond's plan that when this kind of building was blown up, all the ruins of the building would fall into a pit 100 meters underground, and then the pit would be firmly blocked, and none of the people in the underground pit would want to come out alive.

Claire was the first to object to Colleen's plan: "I do want to save Daniel, but I don't want to use this method. ”

"That's right." Jessica followed up and said, "We will be charged with obstruction of official business, as well as domestic terrorist attacks." ”

With Jessica's knowledge of the police, those cops would not only have planted the whole thing on them, but they would even be responsible for causing the power outage throughout New York as before, and they would definitely lose more than they would have to gain by doing so now.

Colleen has a strong sense of justice, and she anxiously persuaded everyone: "This matter is not only about Daniel, but about the whole of New York City." You know these people, Claire, they're ruthless, and they don't mind ruining all of New York to get their way. ”

"But even if you blow up this building, you can't guarantee that your organization will be completely destroyed!" Jessica still doesn't agree with Colleen's plan.

Colleen shook her head lightly and said in a deep voice, "But this will destroy their leadership and cut off their heads." ”

"Hey!" At this time, Matt Murdoch came up to Colleen and said, "We are here to save lives, not to take lives." ”

"These people are not really alive." In Colleen's opinion, these people who have lived for hundreds of years in the Hand are no longer human, but ghosts that have wandered in the world, a group of living walking dead, a group of vampires who lie on the human race to suck blood.

"And the building is empty." Matt Murdoch took Colleen's words at this time and said, "There is no one else in this building, and now only us and them are left." ”

Matt Murdoch was right, just now, inside the entire Midtown Circle Financial Building, all the handicap subordinates quietly evacuated, and the police just pounced, and when they found that there was movement inside the elevator room, the chief police detective had already transferred all the manpower, and after some discussion, they were ready to transfer explosives to open the elevator door, before that, the police manpower was gradually withdrawing.

So if they blow up this place after they have rescued people and evacuated, they won't hurt the police, they will only kill and injure the people of the Hand Association.

Hearing Matt Murdoch say this, Claire looked at him in disbelief and said, "Are you okay with that?" ”

"Of course not, but she's right." Matt Murdoch pointed at Colleen and said, "And the designers have known for a long time that the only way to end this, to save the city from destruction, is to blow up this building, so if there is no objection, then we will do it." ”

Matt Murdoch paused for a moment after finishing speaking, and the others looked at each other, and Luke Cage finally stood up and said, "I don't care how dangerous you say these people are, I don't want to do such a thing." ”

Even if it is to save people and eliminate future dangers, but this kind of approach is somewhat unacceptable to Luke Cage, who was born in the military.

Matt Murdoch could only continue to persuade: "We are here to save Daniel, but Colleen is right, this is not the end, the Hand will still hunt us down, if only we would be fine, but we still have family and friends, and now is our best chance to get rid of them forever." ”

At the mention of their family and friends, even Luke Cage's face couldn't help but change, and after glancing at Claire on the side, he finally nodded with difficulty.
