Chapter 5: Logan, Banner
Berkeley is located in San Francisco, California, USA.
It's not less than a few hundred kilometers from Manhattan, and Rocky doesn't have any divine powers now, and he's not going to use the mask lightly after accumulating a long time to use it. So, flying directly from San Francisco Airport, however getting off the plane and taking a taxi is undoubtedly the best option.
Rocky boarded a plane from JFK to San Francisco, a one-hour journey that would have been thought boring. However, on the plane, he met a very interesting person.
"Man, is there anyone sitting in this place?"
A bearded man with two sharp horns in the hairstyle, between youth and middle age, asked very casually.
"No, there's no one here."
As Rocky's words fell, the strange strong man sat down, his expression seemed nervous, as if he was running away from someone.
Rocky quietly observed him, and after the strong man noticed something, he seemed to restrain the dissatisfaction in his heart, and asked lightly, "What are you looking at?" Think I have a weird hairstyle? ”
"No, I'm watching you panic." Rocky snorted, a strange smile on his face.
The strong man's expression tightened, and he looked at Rocky with a sudden unkind expression.
"Are you one of his too?"
"Come on, man, I'm not someone else's worker." Rocky waved his hand with a disdainful smile, pointed to his nose and said, "If you take a mirror and look at your face, you can see how nervous you are now." The bloodshot eyes, the hands that kept rubbing together, and the uncontrollable looking left and right. ”
Zhuang Yu was speechless, and then seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and the breath of the whole person sank.
"Logan, that's my name. Thanks for the reminder. ”
"Just call me Rocky!" Rocky looked at Logan with a hint of sarcasm: "Your nervousness seems to be a little unworthy of your muscles!" ”
A trace of annoyance flashed on Logan's face, and then he was restrained again, and said coldly: "What do you know, as an ordinary person, you don't understand anything!" ”
Everyman? A meaningful smile appeared on Rocky's face, he was not angry at being called an ordinary person, but from these three words, he got some very strange information.
The guy in front of him, named Logan, seems to have a special identity. Perhaps, in a sense, this guy doesn't seem to be a human at all.
For the rest of the day, Rocky didn't speak again, and Logan didn't seem interested in talking to Rocky.
After the plane docked in San Francisco, Rocky got up, and as he left his seat and was about to step out of the cabin, he said something intriguing to Logan.
"Be careful to hide your identity! Special 'people'! ”
Logan's pupils couldn't help but shrink the moment he heard this, and the originally planned escape route seemed to have changed slightly under Rocky's words. And at this moment, he felt a little curious about Rocky's identity. There don't seem to be many people who know their identity. Moreover, from the appearance alone, ordinary people can't see that he has a problem at all. And how did Rocky see it?
Unbeknownst to Logan, Rocky was just deliberately trying to trick him.
After seeing the expression on Logan's face, Rocky became more and more sure of his guess, and thus thought of Jenny's cousin from this matter.
This world is full of weirdness, and there must be an unknown existence. Now that he has lost his divine power, Rocky must learn to let go of the arrogance in the divine domain and know what it means to take every step of the way.
After getting off the plane, Rocky flagged down the taxi, and after reporting Berkeley, he could clearly see the excitement in the driver's eyes. Because it's a big deal.
"Originally, I thought I wouldn't be able to make any money today, but I didn't expect to have a big deal before the shift!"
Hearing the driver's words, Rocky chuckled noncommittally, and after a flash of thought in his eyes, he couldn't help asking, "Do you often run Berkeley?" ”
"Yes, sir, because Berkeley is over there."
"Have there been any special things over there lately, such as explosions, house destruction, etc.?"
The reason Lodge asked this was to confirm his suspicions. Jenny said her cousin was researching gamma rays for medical purposes. But has anyone ever seen that gamma research is in the military? You know, gamma rays have many effects. For example, high-energy bombs that contain gamma rays.
The white driver struggled to recall, and it wasn't until a moment later that his frowning brow let go, "I do remember that the medical research room in the eastern suburbs seemed to have been destroyed for some reason some time ago. ”
When Rocky heard this, his heart couldn't help but move, "Then I'll get off there!" ”
"Are you sure you want to do this? It is said that the place is haunted, and some say that there they saw a ghost wandering green at night. ”
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm curious."
The driver no longer persuaded him, the eastern suburbs could still make him a lot of money, so why should he block his own money.
After nearly an hour of riding in the taxi, Rocky looked out the window at the half-collapsed room on the street, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
After leaving the rental, Rocky tightened his clothes and came to the outside of the real room, which had been cordoned off by the cordon.
'Not a catastrophe caused by an explosion, because there are no burnt marks, it seems to be ...... Destruction caused by extremely oppressive forces...... There are some residual marks in some places, it seems, it is a huge fist!? ’
After seeing these limited clues feed back into his mind an almost crazy guess, Rocky's eyes flashed with excitement mixed with a frenzied look.
It's funny, I can't imagine that this trip has not been in vain, and it seems that these answers will have to be found to Jenny's cousin. ’
……
Bruce Banner, Berkeley's military scientist working on high-energy bombs, was supposed to have a good life, but this qiē was ruined in that foolproof reality.
'Why is Y radiation so disordered?' Obviously, I had made comprehensive preparations before. ’
This is something that Banner has been unable to figure out, and it is clear that he is nine times out of ten, but the final result is that Gamma's Y-radiation guide zhì himself has become a green monster.
'Damn, I have to unmutate!' ’
A flash of anger flashed across Banner's face, and his eyes glinted green. The next moment, he was shocked, and then he kept trying to calm his anger by breathing.
'No, I can't be angry, if I'm angry, that guy will come out......'
It took a long time for Banner to calm down. In order to remove the mutation, it is necessary to find complete information about the time of the real yàn, but the original real yàn room has been destroyed, and now it has been sealed off by the military. If you show up rashly, I'm afraid you will be hunted by your future 'father-in-law' at the first time, right?
As a hint of self-deprecation crept up the corners of his mouth, Banner froze, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have backed up his data in the office on the second floor of the real room. The memory made his face suddenly excited, and the backup undoubtedly meant hope, and if he wanted to solve the anomaly in his body now, he had to return to the real room that made him desperate.
'Looks like I'm going to have to go back...'
Late at night in Berkeley, the lights in the already sparse houses in the eastern suburbs have gradually been extinguished.
On the deserted street, a figure wearing a windbreaker shrunk and slowly walked towards the ruined room.
A hint of nervousness could be seen in his expression through the moonlight, and he saw him cautiously cross the cordon, gently step over the rubble, and burrow into the original door of the real yàn room through the small gap.
The sound of whimpering wind flowed in the dark corridor, and he took out the small flashlight in his pocket and twisted it gently.
The flashlight turned on, and he took the flashlight and looked around, as if he was afraid that someone would suddenly rush out.
After a long jolt, he seemed to finally make sure that there was no one in the hallway, and after a slight sigh of relief, he walked up to the office he had once been on the second floor, relying on his memory.
The office door was unlocked, and he opened it easily, and then, with a hint of excitement on his face, he walked into the room gently, and he opened the drawer of his desk, and when he tried to take out the backup, his expression suddenly froze.
'None? Why not? ’
He did not believe in evil and looked for it again, but he found nothing. At this time, he fell into great despair and anxiety.
However, just as he sat still, wanting to cry without tears, a playful voice gently drifted into his ears.
"Mr. Banner, we should be able to talk if you will!"
Banner focused his eyes and asked in surprise, "Who?" Who's there? His gaze searched the office, then to the outside.
At this time, a relaxed figure walked slowly, and in his hand, what he was holding was the mobile hard disk that memorized the backup data.
"I guess this thing, you should know what it is, right?"
Under the light of the flashlight, Rocky's playful face was revealed. However, what attracted Banner the most was the portable hard drive in his hand.
"I think we really should have a good talk!" Banner took a deep breath and nodded calmly.
