Chapter 348: An Unexpected Return
When Daniel Rand returned to the RAND Group again, he was dressed in a crisp suit. He is also surrounded by top barristers in New York City. This time, no one called the security guards to blast him out. The top management of the RAND Group convened a meeting specifically for this purpose to discuss Daniel's problem.
For capitalists, especially those of the level of the RAND Group. It has always been important that what is mine is mine, yours is still mine. Not to mention that Daniel has been missing for fifteen years, even if he came back fifteen years ago. The board of directors will not hesitate to start. The cake of the RAND Group is worth tens of billions of dollars, and in the hands of a child, it is really eye-catching. If they don't grab it, they will all feel sorry for their conscience.
In fact, Daniel's return didn't affect them too much. Even if the other party is the owner of this company, but for them, how can they allow others to snatch what is in their bowl. Not even the owner. Today, with Rand Sr. dead, they don't think a child who has been missing for fifteen years can pose a threat to them.
Even this time, it was not Daniel Rand's ignorant little ghost who was talking to them. It's Jerry Hogas, the ace lawyer in New York City. It only forced them to put on a formal posture.
......
Jessica woke up from a hangover again near noon. She struggled to her feet, trying to find something to eat. However, I didn't find the food, but I saw the strange invitation from yesterday. Thinking of yesterday's somewhat weird scene. Jessica couldn't help but take a closer look at the invitation.
It was probably the simplest invitation she'd ever seen. There are only two simple Chinese characters, and she probably means an invitation. There are some simple decorative patterns around, and there is nothing superfluous about it.
"The Magic Council." While mourning, Jessica remembered the scene where the man who sent the invitation mysteriously disappeared yesterday. "I'm going to see what kind of circus it is."
Jessica grabbed the key and walked out the door. Even the door of the house, which had not yet been repaired, did not let her stop in the slightest.
At the same time, a black man in the prison was also walking outside the prison with a strange face. From time to time, he deliberately walked past the guards. But the other party didn't react in the slightest, even if he deliberately stopped in front of the other party, the guards just naturally bypassed him and continued to move forward. There is some kind of horror in the weirdness of the whole scene. It's as if the whole world can't see him.
The black man walked out of the prison slowly. He glanced down at the strange invitation in his hand. This invitation appeared unexpectedly at his bedside yesterday. At first he thought it was a prank by his cellmates. But he found that except for him, no one else could see the invitation at all. And what struck him the most strange thing was that he found that when he held the invitation, the rest of the people would automatically ignore his presence. He even took advantage of this trait and even walked out of prison directly.
This man is none other than Luke Cage. It is also the Divine Man in Marvel. He stood on the side of the road and hesitated, then waved his hand to stop a passing car.
Luke Cage and Jessica arrived at Yellowstone at about the same time. The two saw each other's invitations. But he didn't come forward to talk. It is reasonable for a prison fugitive, a person immersed in his own world, to have no common language.
But when the light on the invitation flashed, the two of them immediately found themselves in a completely different place.
"Hell." It was the two of them speaking in unison, but they were quickly attracted to everything in front of them.
"The Magic Council." Jessica muttered to herself.
Several council staff members walked up and led them in.
"I thought there would be four trialists." In the depths of the council, Lin Xuan said with some dissatisfaction.
"Originally, yes, we sent an invitation to Matthew Mordoch Murdoch. But he seems to have other considerations. ”
"Also, Matthew is a person who is hard to change his mind, and he must have discovered the action of the Hand Clan. Let's get started. Who will be my last ringing spirit? Lin Xuan threw the black ring he was playing with in front of his eyes. The ring rippled in the air as if it had fallen into water, and then vanished. That was the last magic ring in Lin Xuan's hand, among the nine rings of the human race.
Daniel has no immediate family anymore. This meant that in an extremely embarrassing situation, he could not prove that he was himself. This is probably one of the most ironic things in the world. But this debate revolves around this. Daniel knew everything about his childhood, everything about Joey and Ward. In fact, Joey and Ward already knew that the person in front of them was Daniel. But the mentality of the capitalists prevailed after all. As long as it can't be proven, then the RAND Group is still ours. This is probably the common idea of all capitalists.
This is also the most direct manifestation of the dark side of society. Those who have the right to speak can modify the rules of the game as they please. When they are unreasonable, they use force unscrupulously, and when they are reasonable, they demand the same from their opponents. This also confirms the famous complaint on the Internet. When you want to be reasonable, it plays hooligan with you, when you want to play hooligan...... The police came.
Even with Jerry Hogas's eloquence, it was impossible to convince the board of directors that it was Daniel Rand without a DNA sample. What's more, the people on the board of directors probably don't want to believe it at all.
However, this is not a simple battle for equity. At least not for the five members of the Hand Combination. They don't have the patience to wait any longer.
At the meeting, the board of directors kept receiving phone calls. And this series of phone calls changed the situation of memories almost instantly. After the members of the board put down the phone, their faces were very strange for a while. Others were blue and looked as if they had been frightened in some way.
"Daniel, do you remember your father's favorite brand of cigars?" One of the shareholders asked suddenly.
"I don't remember. I don't remember my father smoking cigars. ”
"Yes, he doesn't. Welcome back, kids. ”
The member's words seemed to have set off some sort of chain reaction. Nearly all of the board members welcomed Daniel home, and the meeting changed 180 degrees. I only stunned the surrounding staff and the legal team. But many directors are as thick-skinned as cowhide. He didn't care about the change in his attitude at all, but teamed up to directly bypass the opinion of Acting President Ward and confirm Daniel's return.
Jerry gave Daniel a meaningful look. As everyone knows, Daniel himself is also confused. But in any case, Daniel got what belonged to him back.
