Chapter 67: Asking for Help
Yobetti, of course, is impossible.
But Joey isn't the kind of good baby who learns honestly.
Night.
The moonlight, as clear as silver frost, covered a towering edifice.
At the top of the spire stand two figures, one black and one white, which are Cyclops and Spider Woman, who meet here.
Laser-eyed Joey spoke, "Why did you come up with the idea of asking me out tonight?" Didn't you say the other day that you were too bored with me to go alone? ”
I was going to ask Susan to enhance the relationship, but I was cut off by the spider girl who was killed halfway, and I was a little puzzled why Gwen asked him if he had time at night, and the relationship was addicted to one person playing two roles.
"It's not that it's boring, it's that you make me look very non-existent, can you take off your sunglasses first?"
Gwen said speechlessly, "I feel like I'm talking to a mentally retarded person." ”
The No. 1 vest can't be used, and the No. 2 vest has also been complained by the copyright owner, and Joey has no choice but to use the No. 3 vest he picked up a few days ago.
"It's okay to pick it, but there is a quid pro quo, let me kiss it, I didn't feel it last time I kissed my face, and I want to pout this time."
Joey faintly touched Gwen's sensitive point and couldn't help but tease it.
"Impossible, don't even think about this kind of thing in the future."
Just thinking about it made Gwen go limp, and she nearly fell off the edge of the spire.
Shy and a little angry at the same time, this dog thing actually wants to lick other women, I'm afraid I don't want it!
"Just kidding, I have a girlfriend, how can I kiss other girls." Joey snorted and slowed down the pull.
"I don't like jokes like that. If you have a girlfriend, be more restrained, not every girl eats your mouth. ”
When Gwen heard this, she was inexplicably a little upset, and her tone was cold.
But after saying that, she was stunned, Joey was loyal to herself, it stands to reason that she should be happy, why did she feel more angry than just now?
Before she could figure it out, Joey said:
"But you're not another girl, you're a spider girl. It's a bit of a scumbag to say that, but you're special to me, and I hope to be able to walk with you on the hero's path. ”
Joey looked serious and began to reel in the line.
“......”
Needless to say, the stinky dog was mentally derailed, but Gwen found that she was not angry at all, but had some joy.
It's over, I'm afraid there's something wrong with my brain.
Gwen, who was mentally polluted, wailed as if two villains were fighting in their heads, and hurriedly changed the subject: "I need you to do me a favor." ”
About a kidnapping case.
The crime happened last night, and Gwen went out on a chivalrous trip as usual, and her plan for the day was to go to Brooklyn to stop the gangster vendetta.
This has been the main focus of Gwen's recent work.
However, on the way there, I accidentally ran into another crime, a mother and daughter were kidnapped, and they were on the streets of the city.
The perpetrator's behavior can be described as rampant, Gwen rushed over without thinking about it, thinking that two spider silks could easily solve the problem, but the other party was not an ordinary person, but a mutant with strange abilities.
A person can spit out acidic mucus and melt away the silk without harming themselves.
The other has similar stealth abilities to Susan, and is so powerful that he can easily lift a vehicle and throw it like a toy.
The slimeman's attack is very corrosive, but it is not a big threat to Gwen, and the main trouble comes from the invisible man, who can not only become invisible by himself, but also become invisible for a short time by touching objects, which lasts about a second.
It was this second that caused great trouble to Gwen, because the place where the battle broke out was on the street, it was difficult for the spider sense to capture effective information from the many noisy sounds, making Gwen restrained in the battle.
Just imagine, a bullet is already lightning fast when it comes out of the chamber, and if it goes into invisibility, the threat can be said to be more than ten times higher.
Therefore, Gwen had a hard time parrying, but luckily the police came quickly this time, and the mutants who realized that they couldn't do anything chose to flee invisibly.
The bad guys were not caught, but the other party's crime was not successfully carried out, and it seems that the results are not bad.
But then the police didn't know whether it was unintentional or deliberate, and revealed a horrific news to Gwen, there was more than one kidnapping that night, and as of eight o'clock, the police had received a total of 17 reports, all over New York.
The victims were all family members of high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen.
"Brotherhood?"
Joey's suspicions are justified.
At the beginning of the month, the Brotherhood did the same thing, Magneto went around like crazy, planning terrorist attacks, kidnapping members of Congress, and smashing two aircraft carriers hijacked from unknown places on the head of the White House, which was later violently attacked by the authorities and stopped for a while.
Calculate the time, about a week, but I didn't expect this time not only to make a comeback, but also to expand the scope of business.
Joey couldn't help but feel admiration for Magneto, this old man really carried forward the identity of a terrorist to the fullest.
"When I first found out about it yesterday, I suspected it was the Brotherhood."
Gwen shook her head and said, "But then I investigated, no, now the main members of the Brotherhood are active near Washington, and they suffered heavy losses a few days ago, so they can't spare so many people to carry out large-scale operations." ”
"Where did the news come from? This should be classified information, right, and you have contact with the official high-level? Joey asked knowingly.
"It doesn't matter."
The news was learned by Gwen from George, due to the special identity of the kidnapped person, George's anger was particularly strong this morning, and the three sentences were inseparable from the Falk mutant.
The pressure from above, as well as the pressure of public opinion, forced George to do something, so tonight he decided to launch a raid on three suspected mutant bases.
The police are not as incompetent as they think, at least when it comes to intelligence, which superheroes can't match, but George rarely chooses to be tough.
Because it would inevitably cause heavy casualties, if time permitted, George's general approach was to assess the danger, plan a plan, and finally act together with the special department to minimize the battle damage.
There are few police officers in New York, and the difficulty of recruitment is increasing year by year, and George when he was young didn't understand why the police were always grinding and chirping when they were in action, but after becoming the director, he understood that recklessness is useless, and being alive is the most important thing.
"Follow me."
Gwen was also worried that George would be in danger before she called Joey, and she was really a bit alone to do it.
With that, he jumped from the top of the spire, and quickly moved away after a few flashes.
Light, vigorous, like a fairy under the moon.
"Has she thought about how I'm going to get there?"
Joey leaned on the guardrail of the spire and glanced down, and suddenly felt dizzy, hundreds of meters high, no one without fear of heights could not stand it.
I was going to jump down from here and pretend to be compared, but I couldn't die anyway, but I gave up after thinking about it, what age is it, and I have to be good at using high technology.
For example, elevators.
