New York City is lit up at night, the city's brilliant lights come to life, the rich indulge in the luxuriance of money, and the slums enjoy the warmth of family.

Hell's Kitchen, New York's place of sin, even after Kim's death, this special area full of chaos and crime did not get the expected calm, and those gangs, drug dealers, and street thugs were like weeds burned by wildfires, and it didn't take long for them to rekindle and quietly encroach on every neighborhood.

Matt Murdoch sat alone in his own law firm, and his developed keen senses allowed him to hear all kinds of voices in his neighborhood, and if he concentrated, he could even expand his perception to an entire neighborhood.

"What are you doing......

"Why, don't get in the way, dude, or I'll blow your head off!"

"There's a kind of coming!"

"Do you want to taste the bitterness?"

Matt clenched the documents in his hand, he had given up his identity as Daredevil for a long time, since the death of Kim and Ji, the blind lawyer was determined not to wear the red devil's suit anymore, perhaps it was the departure of his friend Fergue and his assistant Karen, who finally woke up to the fact that violently fighting criminals is a palliative rather than a cure, and Daredevil is also breaking the law while punishing criminals.

Despite his inner decision, whenever Matt hears that a crime has occurred, he still can't hold back the impulse in his heart, and his jealous and hateful nature makes it impossible for him to sit idly by and ignore the criminals and the violence.

"NYPD! Spread out! Stop it! ”

The arrival of the police calms down an otherwise violent clash that was about to take place, and Matte nods his head and exhales a long breath, maybe that's the best way to solve it, Daredevil's presence will only make things worse!

Matt forced himself to suppress his inner impulses, and with the fall of Kim, Hell's Kitchen at least regained a semblance of calm, and the blind lawyer stopped thinking about it and concentrated on preparing the waiting lawsuits.

Matt, who gave up his life as a vigilante from Hell's Kitchen, now works as a charitable legal aid worker for civilians who can't afford a barrister, which is another way to fight crime.

"Frank, is that you?" Matt, who was sorting through the papers, frowned, and he seemed to hear a familiar sound of footsteps.

"Your ears are still so sharp, barrister!" The tall burly man climbed through the window from the fire ladder and sat down on the sofa very familiarly, "Do you have any wine here?" Whiskey on the rocks! ”

Matt got up and took a bottle of beer from the fridge and threw it to Frank on the couch, the tall man known as the "Punisher", who easily and accurately caught the beer, unscrewed the lid and drank it happily.

"Trouble, can you go through the door next time? Don't open the window every time. Matt had a lot of problems with Frank's approach.

"I'm not you, Matt, I'm wanted by the entire NYPD, and those damn cops suspect me of killing Kim and have made me the most wanted person!" Frank drank the beer in one gulp, and inexplicably carried such a black cauldron on his back, which made him extremely angry!

Matt shook his head and smiled, "Actually, I thought you did it at first. ”

Frank turned out to be a member of the Marine Corps, when he returned home from the army, he witnessed the tragic murder of his family, and he suffered a huge psychological stimulation, and began to clean up the evil forces of Hell's Kitchen by himself, Matt met each other in the process, and the two had several fierce confrontations at the beginning, and finally Daredevil, who understood what happened, saved Frank from his serious injuries, and even volunteered to be his defense lawyer.

"Even though that guy's rough style is similar to mine, he took the lead before I could make a move on Kim."

Frank plays with the gun in his hand, he is now famous in Hell's Kitchen, and compared to the vanished Daredevil, this cruel and extreme punisher has always been committed to fighting the gangsters.

After calculating the time, Matt spoke, "You don't come to me for nothing, Frank, what did you find?" ”

"Look at what you look like now, Matt Murdoch, barrister of justice!" Frank's tone was mocking, he didn't expect the other party to give up Daredevil's identity, "Remember what I told you before, someone is planning a big conspiracy, Kim is dead, but the power of the Hand is growing day by day, they secretly control a company called Midtown Circle Finance, I found that there are many red-clothed ninjas stationed there, which is very unusual!" ”

Matt was silent for a moment, his girlfriend Erica was killed by the Hand Clan, and those Japanese ninjas tried to make Erica into a powerful weapon called "Black Sky", and in the fierce pursuit and battle, Erica unfortunately died in order to save herself.

This is the biggest pain in Matt's heart, and it is precisely because of this that he will make the decision to put down Daredevil's suit and helmet and choose to return to the life of ordinary people.

"Hand Clan...... I thought they were out of Hell's Kitchen. Matt smiled bitterly and buried the painful memories in his heart.

"No, it's just quietly hidden, and they seem to be secretly doing something." Frank tells the clues he has recently investigated, and he wants Matt's help, and the Hand is too much to deal with on his own, as the elite ninjas who have been trained to do so are too much to deal with on his own.

"What are you going to do?" Matt asked.

"Hell's Kitchen has a 'Hellfire Club' where dragons and snakes are mixed and it's the best place to gather information." Frank gave a not-so-friendly smile, thinking that the Punisher's way of gathering information was certainly not a polite visit.

"I had to go to court at three o'clock to defend a child who had lost both legs...... Well, I wish you all the best in your investigation. Matt stuffed the papers on the table into his briefcase and touched the blind cane next to him, "You can stay at my house for a while, remember to lock the window before leaving, this area is not very safe." ”

"You don't care about that at all now, do you? Matt Murdoch, are you really willing to forget your old life and be a barrister who speaks up for justice and advocates for the poor!? ”

Frank stood up, a hint of anger in his tone, he hoped that Matt would pick himself up and continue to be the Daredevil who fought crime, Hell's Kitchen needed such a person!

"Do you think the law can judge the wicked? I thought you'd already see it clearly, Matt, the law can't punish those who do whatever they want, in Hell's Kitchen, the gang bosses go in and out of the police station as if they were back in their own homes, they enjoy high-end wine, beautiful prostitutes in prison, and even the prison guards grovel to them! These people have not been punished in any way, and they will not repent to God, so I will show no mercy, because all this scum deserves to go to hell! ”

Frank's voice was indifferent, like a cold bullet, and it struck Matt's heart, and the blind lawyer, who had experienced constant hesitation and struggle, had once again surged up in his heart.

"Frank, I'm sorry, I can't do it!" After a long time, Matt gave his own answer and walked out of the dilapidated apartment.

Standing in place, Frank sighed, it seems that he has to find another helper, anyway, Hell's Kitchen has recently emerged a new batch of characters, Luke Cage, a black hero in Harlem, and Jessica Jones, a private detective, all of whom have extraordinary abilities.

Anyway, let's go to the Hellfire Club tonight, and hopefully the boss will get to know him a little bit and give him a satisfactory answer.

The Punisher, with a skull emblazoned on his chest, flipped out of the window again, his burly back hidden in the dim darkness of the night.
