Chapter 169: The Tasteless Superhero and the Second Hire
In this world, superheroes are no longer a special case, but a profession.
They are packaged like stars by big companies.
In order to gain enough attention and exposure, these admired 'stars' also need to make movies, contemporary speeches, receive advertisements, do charity, and even appear on variety shows.
Fighting crime is just a small part of their day-to-day work.
There are rules on what to do and what not to do, and everything is based on the principle of attracting more fans and traffic.
Only in this way can we consolidate the righteous image of superheroes punishing evil and promoting good in the hearts of the people again and again.
Of course, along the way, the heroes get something extra, like money.
This will enable them to live a life far beyond ordinary people.
As a result, becoming a hero has become a job that the general public is eager for.
The Invisible Man belongs to the world's most famous superhero organization, the Super Seven.
And behind this Super Seven, there is a huge group with strong capital and hundreds of superheroes.
Waters Company.
It's good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree, even if the invisible person's cultural level is not high, he understands this truth.
As a member of the world's top idol group, he paid an exaggerated $300 million in signing fees a year.
So, when Huey said that he wanted Lu Wu to stab him to death, the invisible man was ready to run without even thinking about it.
It's not a question of whether you can fight or not, it's that it's not necessary.
He was the equivalent of a fine antique porcelain, and Huey and the strange thing next to him were tattered clay pots.
Two things collide with each other, and no matter who wins or loses, it is always expensive porcelain that suffers in the end.
So, relying on his invisible relationship, the invisible man tiptoed towards the door.
As a result, because Lu Wu happened to block the door, it was basically impossible for him to escape quietly.
Fortunately, there is no endless road.
The entire wall of the video store is made up of transparent glass windows, which only need to be smashed and quickly run to the open outside.
Even if these two people were just exhausted, they couldn't find where he was.
And he can calmly return to the Walter company to move the rescuers, and let the powerful motherland clean up the two.
Just do it, and the invisible man slowly retreats, giving himself room to run.
Then he slammed his legs out of the way and slammed into the window next to the door.
It's only a few meters away, and it doesn't take a second to arrive, and it seems that he wants to have a close contact with the window, but the invisible man hears the conversation between the two.
Huey, who was obviously a little anxious, asked, "Why don't you do it yet, are you scared?" โ
Lu Wu, who had an evil smile on his face, replied, "No, I'm waiting for him to bump into him." โ
As soon as these words came out, the invisible people were shocked, could this monster see itself?
But now, it's too late to say anything, he's already an arrow off the string, and there's no turning back.
He simply closed his eyes, his heart was horizontal, and he slammed straight into the window.
As expected, the sound of glass shattering did not appear, and the invisible man first felt a chill in his abdomen, and the strength of his whole body seemed to be lost.
Then, there was a sharp pain.
"Ahโโ!h He screamed and looked down at his bleeding transparent body.
"How... How so? โ
The invisible man's body appeared in reality, and a dagger glowing with a purple-red glow stabbed into his hairy abdomen.
At the same time as he lost his stealth ability, the gray figure of the demon slowly emerged.
The two stealthy guys, both showing their figures, confronted each other like this.
"I'm going to surprise you, do you like it?" Lu Wu said, pulled out the dagger, and stabbed it again in a different position.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you that the dagger was smeared with poison by me, and it was highly poisonous."
"Uhhhhh
In Huey's view, the Grey Demon suddenly vanished, panning to the side for some distance, and then hit the Invisible Man.
At this time, the invisible man, whose lips began to darken, uttered his last words: "Why, why can you pierce my skin." โ
"Of course because..."Lu Wu pushed him on the forehead before continuing, "Magic." โ
The toxin struck the heart, and the invisible man, who had lost all vital signs, fell backwards, and the loud sound of landing echoed in the video store.
Shaking off the dagger that had no blood stains at all, and inserting it back into his waist, Lu Wu turned around and stretched out his hand to Huey, who looked stupid: "Happy cooperation, sir." โ
Huey stared blankly at the corpse on the ground, subconsciously held his hand, and muttered, "So simple and he died?" โ
"Please don't question my professionalism, sir." Lu Wu shook the hands held by the two and continued: "The employment has ended, please settle the final payment." โ
"Tail payment, what tail payment?" Huey then reacted and tried to withdraw his hand.
It turned out that the other party had no intention of letting go at all.
This made him panic immediately, and stammered: "You, you... What do you want! โ
The smile on Lu Wu's face became brighter: "Of course, it's the reward for saving you." โ
"We agreed in advance, you hire me to kill people, and then pay me."
"I don't want much from you, just count him as an ordinary person, 300,000 per person."
"Dollars."
"Our store operates on a small budget, and we don't owe it on credit, and we give money!"
The video store salesman's legs had begun to weaken, and he said in alarm: "I... I don't have any money. โ
"No money!" Lu Wu's voice became sharper, and the smile he had been holding disappeared without a trace in an instant.
But soon, he smiled again: "It doesn't matter if you don't have money, you can exchange other things." โ
"A human life of 300,000 is just enough to take your life, which is very fair."
After saying that, I was even happier, and I seemed to be proud of my urgency.
"Don't, don't!" Huey, who was in a mood like a roller coaster, almost collapsed to the ground, crying and begging, "Did you say that you just had to pay the price?" โ
"I can give something else besides my life."
"Please, give me some time, I'll figure it out."
Lu Wu nodded thoughtfully: "Wellโโ, what you said makes sense." โ
Then, pointing to the only TV screen in the video store that was still on, he said, "Then I want her!" โ
Huey followed his fingertips to the screen, where a superhero promo was playing.
At this moment, it is the turn of the new member of the Super Seven, a female superhero with beautiful blonde hair.
Seeing this scene, Huey immediately fell into despair, he couldn't even handle an ordinary person, how could he deal with a superhero.
Lu Wu saw his hesitation, and the hand that grabbed him became harder and harder: "Difficult? โ
The cold voice without emotion made Huey fall into the ice cellar, and quickly shook his head and said, "No problem, absolutely no problem." โ
"Give me ten days... Ah no... Five days! โ
"Give me five days, and I'll find a way to give her to you!"
"Good." Lu Wu nodded with satisfaction, and put on that happy expression again: "Don't be too afraid, you are my employer, and I will not hurt you until the transaction is completed." โ
"Well, give you ten days."
"I'll come to you in ten days' time, if you don't keep your promise..."
The demon didn't finish his words, but looked at the corpse of the invisible man next to him.
The deep meaning contained in it is self-evident.
But Huey, who saw the corpse, thought of something else, and he said cautiously: "Can I... Again... Hire you one more time. โ
