Chapter 20: It's hard to be a good person

"Your Excellency the Transparent Man!"

The next day, wearing the propped up hollow sports shorts, Xu Shou walked into the door of Walter Company in a stealth state.

Last night, Ashley didn't tell him she had a mission today.

Today's mission, it is said that it is the turn of the Motherland and Maeve to patrol.

But he still made it to the Waters Building.

Because, he's going to care about Starlight...

.

91st Floor, Walter Group Building,

In Starlight's office, the head of talent and relations, Ashley, the head of talent and relations, angrily pushed the door and walked in.

"What's wrong?"

Starlight, who went to work on time, knew that she didn't have a "task" today.

She was sitting in her chair, thinking about what the transparent man had said last night.

Although she didn't show it in front of transparent people, she actually thought a lot about it last night.

I haven't slept well all night...

Seeing Ashley's angry appearance at this moment, Starlight didn't know what was wrong.

"What did you do after your patrol last night!"

Ashley asked excitedly.

"Uh...."

Starlight doesn't know what Ashley is asking.

She didn't know if she was going to answer,

Later, the deep sea appeared, and then the transparent man took her to eat marzipan...

"On the way back last night, did you wear a gray coat and beat two men?"

Without waiting for Starlight to answer, Ashley spoke it herself.

"Huh?"

Starlight didn't react.

"I said, did you hit two people!?"

Ashley took out a cell phone, handed it over, and played the video above.

"I saw them robbing last night..."

Seeing the video Ashley take, Starlight knew what she was going to ask, and she quickly explained.

"That's not what the video says, these two men say that you use superpowers to bully ordinary people!"

"Now public opinion has risen!"

"Everyone is talking about you, see for yourself!"

Ashley was annoyed and handed her phone to Starlight.

"Superpowers bully the weak!"

"I'm walking on the road with a good look, and this crazy woman comes up directly to beat people!"

"Protest!"

"Protest!"

"Superheroes abuse superpowers!"

"Locked up!"

"It's too bad, it's so unforgivable!"

"Judgment!!"

.

Looking at the comments and barrage of the video, Starlight's brow furrowed.

Especially when she saw two looters last night.

He shamelessly said that he was innocent and was beaten indiscriminately.

Starlight snapped and directly pinched the mobile phone in his hand...

"This video is edited!"

"There is no first half, and there is no second half..."

Angry, Starlight looked up at Ashley.

"What about the evidence? Do you have all the video evidence? ”

Ashley asked rhetorically.

She doesn't really care about the truth of the matter.

She only cares about the impact of this incident on superheroes and the Walter Company.

If it is true, public opinion is one-sided and cannot be suppressed.

She knew that Starlight would be pushed out of the pot.

She came over just to see if there was any evidence in Starlight's favor.

The truth is that she doesn't care.

"Then you said you were a rescuer, but what about the girl you saved?"

"Do you remember what she looked like..."

Seeing that she asked Starlight for evidence, Ashley asked again.

She's already looked it up.

Starlight was on a street corner at the time, and there were no cameras nearby.

now

In the edited video, it is completely a picture of superpowers bullying ordinary people, and the situation is particularly unfavorable to Starlight.

"I forgot...."

Starlight replied silently.

Last night she rushed up eagerly to beat the bad guys, and didn't pay much attention to the appearance of the victim.

And after she beat the bad guys away, the girl was already gone.

She didn't notice at the time.

"Then wait for it to fall!"

Hearing that Starlight couldn't name any favorable evidence, Ashley sighed and left the office.

"What to do? Am I going to be fired? ”

Seeing Ashley leave in a rage, Starlight screamed worriedly from behind.

"I don't know!"

Ashley said a word, got on the elevator, and soon walked into another office.

"Vice President, Starlight has no favorable evidence!"

Standing in front of Madeleine, vice president of the Walter Group, Ashley spoke out the results of her investigation.

"Nothing?"

Madeleine was overwhelmed by the sudden explosion of public opinion on the Internet.

Hearing that Starlight herself had no evidence in her favor, she slapped the table hard.

now

It happened to be a pivotal moment for superheroes to join the Defense Systems Act.

The Starlight beating incident broke out, which was very bad for Walter Company.

"What about the locomotive? Did you find it? ”

Starlight's affair was fruitless, and Madeleine held back her anger and asked about another matter.

Tomorrow is the Locomotive and Blaster race.

The day of seizing the world's first speed.

To build momentum, Waters leased the Met's Rugby Stadium, which can accommodate more than 100,000 people.

A lot of money was spent, and the media and people from all walks of life were invited.

A drinking party was also arranged afterwards, ready to take the opportunity to persuade a wave of lawmakers to agree to vote on a bill for superheroes to join the defense system.

At the moment, it's time for the game.

The locomotive, the object of the competition, disappeared directly.

This made the whole Walter Group very angry.

Madeleine and other top executives of the Waters Group do not care who wins and who loses the locomotive and the shock wave.

Anyway, they are all superpowers, and they are all people from their own companies.

Whoever wins will be in the seven-man group.

They care about building momentum.

It's that things can't go wrong.

It's about perfectly demonstrating the power of superheroes.

It is to make the general public worship superheroes.

It's about bringing superheroes into the defense system, making war private...

"No news!"

"There is no news of the whole person!"

Ashley hurriedly replied.

The locomotive disappeared at a critical moment, and Starlight made public opinion on the Internet, which made Ashley, who handled foreign relations, even worse, very big in the past two days.

"Where's the clue?"

Madeleine asked, rubbing her temples.

"The clues are currently only transparent people, transparent people have surveillance footage, and the last person to see the locomotive..."

Ashley told about the search for the locomotive.

"Where's that underground nightclub?"

Madeleine asked about the underground nightclubs that male superheroes like to go to.

"Where the surveillance footage shows that the locomotive said that he killed a girl three days ago..."

"But the girl's funeral has been held, and her boyfriend has also signed a confidentiality agreement and received a confidentiality payment!"

"Moreover, that picture was earlier than the locomotive saw the transparent man..."

Ashley quickly reported...

.

.

"Am I really going home to see my mother?"

On the 91st floor, Starlight is honestly terrified in her office.

She didn't want to be kicked out of the seven.

She didn't want to.

In order to enter the group of seven, she worked hard for more than ten years.

She also endured a lot of things.

At this moment, an edited online video is about to hit her back.

Starlight doesn't want to go back to the countryside.

She hasn't had any ambitions yet.

"Damn!"

Looking at the TV on the wall, the picture of the shameless robber playing that he beat people for no reason.

All kinds of news and radio are full of voices condemning themselves.

Starlight's fists clenched, knuckles creaking...

"Ding Dong~"

Suddenly, she heard the doorbell in her office ringing.

"It's coming!"

Starlight, who thought it was Ashley who had come to inform her, jumped in a pound of heart.

"It's you?!"

But when I opened the door, I found that the person standing at the door was a transparent person with a smile.

Starlight frowned...
