Chapter 14 New York is still bustling today
Lucy walked the streets of New York, it was already around Christmas, and the streets were much less crowded than ever, and occasionally he saw a few in a hurry, showing the fast-paced life of the big city of New York.
Of course, this is also relative, the development of the United States has slowed down, and the pace of life in New York can be described as "comfortable" compared to the country where Lucy once lived.
Ever since Lucy let go of his knot and planned to really integrate into the world, he has one more activity, which is to observe New York, the metropolis, the architecture, the people, and even, the animals.
Lucy never tires of it.
To be honest, because of whether to integrate into this world and be entangled, this is completely the distress caused by the human body, the original angel will not care about this, and the Seraphic Angel Lucifer will definitely not want to integrate into this world, so he will not feel entangled because of this.
But now Lucy is a human Lucy, and he can no longer call himself "Phil", so he decides to experience life in New York with peace of mind, anyway, he's a human with original sin now, isn't he?
After several days of collecting style, Lucy also had a preliminary understanding of the United States, and then he would choose to go to some places, such as schools, bars or nightclubs, to see the attitude of a specific group of people.
He is no longer looking forward to publishing any comics, after sending the complete 24 chapters of "Angel in Stockings" to the publishing house, Lucy put down the brush in his hand, since the people of this world do not want to see his works, then he has lost the joy of "sharing", Lucy plans to draw at most some works to please himself in the future, and simply enjoy the joy of "creation".
Lucy enjoys the current lifestyle, just walking the streets of New York and experiencing all the facets of the country's most prosperous city.
New York is by no means a paradise on earth, and she has her own dark side, and in this world full of superheroes and supercriminals, the dark side of New York is even more conspicuous, especially Lucy is still the best bully "Asian" from the outside.
"Boy, didn't your mother tell you, don't come here if it's okay?" At this time, several black thugs stopped in front of Lucy, and at the same time, another person went around behind him to prevent Lucy from escaping.
"Especially, weak chickens like you." The leader looked at Lucy, and the thick down jacket made it impossible to see Lucy's figure at all, but from the two aspects of height and face, the black gangster could conclude that the other party's combat effectiveness would not be high.
"Hey, don't you understand what I'm saying?" Seeing that Lucy still looked curious, the black thug impatiently stepped forward, took out a folding knife, and waved it in front of Lucy, "Now, hand over all the front of you!" ”
"If I were you, I wouldn't rob in such an old-fashioned way." Lucy looked up and saw that the man who spoke was standing on the wall, yes, straight and at a 90-degree angle.
This abnormal behavior frightened the black gangsters, who were only the lowest stragglers, and had a natural fear of these "superheroes", so they fled quickly after a few cruel words.
"Thank you, Spider-Man." Lucy said to the brave boy that no matter what, the other party solved the trouble he was facing.
"No, you're welcome, this is what I'm supposed to do, that's right, I'm just born to look down on those scum who bully the soft and fear the hard, of course, what I really want to say is, am I already that famous?" The boy under the hood looked very excited, and the reason was that Lucy recognized him as well.
Lucy waved the newspaper in his hand, and the headline there was "Is Spider-Man good or evil?"
"Well, the editor-in-chief has never been willing to see me, but I promise, I'm definitely on the side of justice, and you have to trust me." Spider-Man was depressed for less than half a second after reading the newspaper, and then became lively again.
"I believe in you." Lucy secretly used the power of an angel to check the other party's soul, and it was really beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
“?” Peter Parker sensed something was wrong with the spider sense, but it quickly dissipated, so he shook his head, beckoned to Lucy, and said, "Have a good day, and then, don't come to this place next time, you know, it's not very safe here." Then he shot out the spider silk and left the alley to continue his patrol.
"The hero next door, Spider-Man." The corners of Lucy's mouth curled as he thought of what those people had said about the warm-hearted teenager.
Peter Parker and Rogers are different, different environments have shaped two completely different people, but Lucy, as an angel, can see that the commonality of their souls, the brilliance of humanity, allows these two superheroes to do many things that they should not be able to do on their own.
Simply put, they are more likely to trigger "miracles".
Although there is such a small episode, but Lucie's life will not end because of this, the slums of New York are indeed very chaotic, but when it comes to the most chaotic place, of course, is the famous Hell's Kitchen, where there are many gangs gathering, with their own set of rules, even the government and the police can't reach into that area.
Of course, this is also because the place is so poor that the officials are not willing to do such a thankless task.
Lucy is targeted the first second he walks into Hell's Kitchen.
This can't be helped, although Lucy now lives in the human body, but the essence of the angel is still there, his behavior habits, his movements and postures, still maintain the brilliance of the angel, and this is too dazzling in the environment of Hell's Kitchen.
But no one dared to provoke Hell's Kitchen alone, and it was not something that those kittens and fish could deal with, so after reporting to the real authorities, they hibernated, and these shrewdest thugs in New York knew who could be messed with and who could not be provoked.
"Give me a glass of lemon milk." Lucy walks into a bar, and in Hell's Kitchen, you can easily find a club, but it took Lucy nearly half an hour to find a bar.
The bartender looked at Lucy with a strange expression, "Sir, we only serve drinks here. He had never seen anyone come to the bar to drink milk, and if it weren't for the fact that it was early and there was no one in the bar, he could guarantee that someone would have provoked.
"Look, now your business is only me, and I'm idle anyway, so can I mix a glass of lemon milk?" Lucy pointed to the bottle on the bar, this bar naturally wouldn't be without lemon and milk for cocktails, but they don't usually sell this drink.
The bartender thought for a moment, "You're right, but since we don't have this drink here, you'll have to pay a little more." That's his condition, most people who can do business in Hell's Kitchen are well-informed, and the bartender's choice, like most people, is to "watch the situation" and try not to get into a conflict with Lucy until the people above him have spoken.
"What does S.H.I.E.L.D. mean?" As the uncrowned king of the dark side of New York, Kim sees Hell's Kitchen as his home base, and Lucy's current identity as a peripheral agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. is still easy for people of his level to detect.
"I don't know, can't you handle it the usual way?" A younger brother under him suggested.
"No, you've seen the photos, such a unique person can't be a pawn." Kim didn't need to pay attention to the low-level incident of "an outsider breaking into Hell's Kitchen", but by chance, he saw a photo of the intruder.
With a keen sense of smell, Kim and felt that something was wrong, so he stopped his younger brother who wanted to "deal with" the incident and think about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s intentions for himself.
"Either way, we can't just bow our heads like S.H.I.E.L.D." The little brother still insisted on his opinion.
"Of course, we won't bow our heads." Kim has never been afraid of S.H.I.E.L.D., he is protected by the system, and S.H.I.E.L.D., this organization is within the system.
The ones who can give Kim and cause trouble are usually those "superheroes".
Especially some stunned young heroes, although these people are not enough to cause him any painful losses, but there have been small troubles in the recent period, which makes Jin He also a little annoyed.
"We need to give those people a warning that Hell's Kitchen is not a place where anyone can meddle." Jin made up his mind, he planned to kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey, and the monkeys he wanted to make an example of were some arrogant guys, so this chicken had to have a certain weight.
The younger brother was stunned for a moment, his original plan was just to drive Lucy away, but now looking at Jin He's attitude, it seems that he wants to kill the intruder directly. "Boss, are we going to directly clash with S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Anyway, if Nick Fury really launched a ruthless attack, they would still be no match for S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Spare that kid's life." Jin He said lightly that as long as there was the slightest room for ridicule, Jin He would be able to ensure that S.H.I.E.L.D. would not attack him.
"Yes." When the little brother goes down, he will inform the masters of gold and bribery, especially some super criminals, to deal with the intruder, that is, Lucy.
"What the boss means, spare the other party's life."
"In other words, as long as that kid is alive, he can do anything else, right?" In the darkness, someone licked their lips.
"The Boss never said anything like that."
"Tsk, the boss is just too careful, will I betray the boss?" The man muttered, then took the target's picture.
"Wow, pretty little one."
"The boss always knows what is most to my liking."
