Chapter 40: The Show
Edward and Beetle recalled the plan, and then reminded him again.
"Sir, the three 'whistleblower' paths currently in use are all being monitored, and there are people looking for traces along the path."
Edward pouted, expected.
Each of the three paths corresponds to each other
1. Report the debut of the hero and report the transaction between Dodo and Magneto.
2. Warn Stark that this trip is dangerous.
3. In the center of the heavily surrounded cordon on Liberty Island, report Magneto who is going to do bad things.
The first one most people only think is a coincidence, even if someone investigates, it is just a chance of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Magneto's attachment.
The second Stark himself doesn't care, but after Stark's disappearance, her personal secretary Pepper will definitely find out about it, and Pepper, the future war machine Rod, and even Bruce Wayne will track this line.
The third article is even more exaggerated, involving the lives of two-thirds of the country's parliamentarians, so it is expected that it will be vigorously investigated.
They will definitely not have any spare strength to mobilize all their forces to find it, S.H.I.E.L.D. Edward is not worried, the only worst case that can make Edward give up temporarily is that the government of the United States directly uses supercomputing to find people......
Edward has arranged for the three lines, the beetle is supercalculated, and he has mental arithmetic and unintentional, it is difficult to say in the future, no one can find him these three times.
The first line wasn't too important, so Edward just casually led them so that they would eventually find Gotham.
The second line involves whether the identity of the 'whistleblower' is kept secret from the superhero, and Edward feels that this line can be properly reserved for favors, so the guards are not so tight, so it will lead to a phone booth in New York, and that's it.
The third line is about the lives of two-thirds of the members of the United States, and the investigation is unprecedentedly strong, so Edward simply indexed this line to a notorious smuggling group, the kind that accounts for all evil, pornography, gambling and drugs.
Originally, it was intended to lead to Hydra, but there are no superheroes now, and Hydra is now revealed, and without the help of superheroes, the fight will definitely be chaotic, but it will not be good.
So Edward simply turned his attention to those gangs who did all kinds of evil, so that they could bear Edward's burden without psychological burden.
Edward and the beetle touched the plan, confirmed some details, found out the voice changing technique from Ted's memory, adjusted the tone, and Edward took out his phone and called Harpy.
Didn't get through.
As Stark's bodyguard, Harpy is usually busy, not to mention that now that Stark is missing, his phone can't be idle at all, so it's not surprising that he didn't get through.
But Edward doesn't mind, it's just an attitude, can't get through, go on, wait until the last ninety-nine missed calls, that's called spectacular.
However, Harpy didn't give Edward this chance, and answered in the thirtieth call.
"Hey, who are you?"
"It's me." Edward said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "I saw Mr. Stark in the news, something happened?" ”
"You?" Harpy was stunned for a moment, thinking about it for a long time, thinking about this voice, "Oh, it's you, did you see the news?" ”
"Is it true or false, is it a smear by a business opponent?"
Harpy's voice was also a little low, "It's true, but I'm already looking for it, but don't worry, Mr. will be back soon." ”
"Where did he go missing? The same address as the newspaper says? Edward asked.
Harpy asked, "What do you want to do?" ”
"Go find him."
“?? Wait, the wind is too strong I didn't hear clearly, what did you say? Harpy was a little puzzled at first, since Stark's disappearance, there have been countless people who have called to ask about it, but to say that he is looking for someone......
First of all, there is a war there, and in this environment, it is said that those who cannot enter are going to go.
Secondly, the entry of materials and the search for personnel all need money, and now in addition to a group of rescue teams organized by Harpy and Little Pepper, only the Wayne Group is willing to help.
The most important thing is, who are you? You say you're looking for someone, why? Why?
Edward repeated, "I'm going to find him." ”
"We've organized a rescue team, it's well equipped and well-staffed, so we don't need you to go anymore." Harpy was patient.
"One more person is one more hope." Edward said.
"First of all, you saw the news, it's in the Imperial Graveyard over there, there's a war going on over there, it's dangerous, and secondly, what can you do if you go?"
"I know." Edward's tone was deep, "It's dangerous over there, and it's even more dangerous for Mr. Stark alone, I'm going to help find him." ”
"What exactly do you want to do?" Harpy was wary.
"Mr. Stark helped me, so I want to help him." Edward gives an unpretentious reason.
"Just because of yesterday?"
"Hmm." Edward's voice deepened, "He's the only one who's helped me twice since I've been here. ”
"That's it? You don't want to go to someone? Are you serious? ”
"I'm serious, there is an old saying in the East, the grace of a drop of water is reciprocated." Edward said in a tone of incomparably firmness.
Harpy said a few more words and hung up the phone, saying that he was going back to call Edward.
Edward snorted, this line is a bit numb, and he himself is not used to it, but "The Basic Literacy of Actors" is placed, and the flesh is numb.
Edward didn't care about Harpy's reaction, it was all expected.
Edward's thing is really weird.
I did a favor yesterday, and today I want to help regardless of life and death? It's all 2009, and there is still this kind of thing?
Although it is said that they helped catch the thief yesterday, what if they are in a gang? What if it's a joint acting?
This is so weird, it's definitely not normal.
What should I do if it's not normal? Investigation, definitely investigation.
Edward had already prepared a character and waited for the investigation, and after the investigation, he found that this person was really innocent, but he had a bit of a problem with his brain, not only amnesia but also very strong.
Edward took a car.
Instead of rushing home, I took a taxi to the alley of the nearby Wayne Bar.
I found something and wrote a board with "Where is Mr. Stark?" and held it up to the camera.
But the camera didn't know if it was no one or what, and no one paid attention to him.
After waiting for a while, Edward turned around and went home, just telling Bruce that he was worried.
After he left, the camera behind him moved invisibly.
Edward was just about to go home, but as soon as he arrived at the door, the beetle suddenly sounded an alarm.
Edward sighed, so he'd rather live in the desert.
Here, every time he goes out, he must have someone in the house, either to install a camera, or to search for Edward's Internet browsing information.
This time it's better, people don't sneak around, and they just squat and ambush inside.
Edward confirmed the information of the people inside, and let the beetle that had been wearing optical camouflage fly away.
He pushed the door open as if he didn't know......
"FBI, hands up and surrender!"
"CIA, hands up and surrender!"
