New York, opposite Stark Building, Royal Restaurant.

Kilgrave sat at a window-side dining table, sipping coffee and looking with interest at the top of the Stark Tower, which was being renovated.

According to a female employee of Stark Group who just came to dinner, Tony Stark is going to change this building into the Avengers Building, and after the top construction is completed, the original "Stark" logo will be changed to an "A".

"It's so rich that you burn in a panic, these Americans, hum!"

Sitting across from him was a beautiful girl, dressed in clothes that made her even more beautiful, but the slightly mechanical movements and expressionless face always inadvertently revealed a sense of disobedience.

"Bang Bang"

The girl stumbled while using the fork, and the sound of falling on the table interrupted Kilgrave's train of thought.

The gentle expression on his face froze, and then he pulled the handkerchief from his clothes and gently wiped the girl's hands stained by the food sauce.

However, at this time, his real thought in his heart was that this "toy" was basically tired of playing with, and the quality was not as good as the previous ones, which made him quite bored, and it was time to discard it.

"Well, remember what I said to you in the morning?"

Hearing this, the girl nodded solemnly.

"That's good, you're full, let's go."

After settling the bill, the two walked out of the restaurant together, and at the first junction, the girl continued on his way, while Kilgrave walked towards Stark Tower.

Before meeting Jessica Jones, the targets he chose were ordinary women, regardless of age, appearance and figure were hard conditions.

Jessica, who is a superpower, gives Kilgrave an extra thrill for the first time, inadvertently opening the door to a new world for him.

He even has a feeling of regret after letting Jessica go, and for this, Kilgrave has set his sights on the rest of the superpowered women.

Before the New York incident, he tried to control several mutant women, but their abilities were not strong enough, not to mention their abilities, and even some changes in body appearance after awakening, which made Kilgrave quite dissatisfied.

After the events in New York, his perfect target was to shine on the female superhero Best, that is, the eldest lady of the Crawford Group, Laura Crawford.

However, knowing the difference in strength between the two, he didn't dare to do it right away, he needed to know more about the other party.

According to recent reliable information, Laura Crawford and Tony Stark seem to be friends, and the Purple Man came up with the idea of trying his luck at Stark Tower, in case he could find any useful information here.

"Alas... It's a pity that I have to find another excessive doll during this time, otherwise life will be too boring. ”

Sitting in the slowly rising construction elevator, Kilgrave couldn't help but sigh when he saw the girl's figure shrink and finally disappear around the corner.

After arriving at the construction site, the person in charge of the site immediately discovered that he was an uninvited guest, and just wanted to reach out to stop the person, he heard the other party say:

"I'm an overseer sent by Tony Stark, I'm going to do your business, leave me alone."

The person in charge was in a trance for a while, then put down his holding arm, respectfully took an orange construction hat and said:

"Yes, sir, please wear a hard hat for your safety."

"I said, leave me alone!"

This time, the purple man's tone aggravated a lot, he had always been impatient with men, so the chubby person in charge quickly turned around and left.

With his special ability to control and command others, Kilgrave had a rough view of the top three floors of Stark Tower, and even saw Pepper who had just disembarked from the helicopter.

It's just that he didn't do it, first, the entrance and exit passage of the construction team is on the fourth floor from the bottom, and it can't directly enter the core office area; The second is that Pepper's appearance does not match his aesthetics, and there is no need to get into trouble with Iron Man for a transitional toy.

Kilgrave, who had nothing to gain, returned to the surface after wandering around for most of the day, and he felt that the matter had to be considered in the long run, and that he had to find a temporary toy first.

"Now there is an urgent news insertion, and according to people familiar with the matter, there is a new development in the shocking case of the daughter's murder of her parents three days ago.

Half an hour ago, a 16-year-old girl named Abigail turned herself in to the New York City Police Department, and when the police officer came forward to receive her, she suddenly snatched the gun from the opponent's waist, and then Abigail was shot through the chest by another police officer on duty, and then was sent to the city hospital for treatment, and is not out of danger of life. ”

Standing outside the shop window and reading the news, Kilgrave was full of excitement, and this pleasure from the depths of his soul seemed to never get tired.

"It's a pity, it would have been better if it had been a little more intense."

The ensuing emptiness caused Kilgrave to frown slightly, and suddenly, his instinct as a spy made him feel as if someone was secretly watching him nearby, and with a sense of hostility.

However, he didn't show anything wrong, and pushed the door open and entered the convenience store on the right.

In the process of selecting goods, he locked on to the stalker with the help of various glass and metal reflections in the store, and then the corners of his mouth rose irrepressibly, because the stalker was a woman with a fairly good figure, but unfortunately the other party was wearing a hood and a scarf, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

So, the purple man paid for a bag of food and drinks, left the convenience store, and led the stalker all the way into a small alley.

The other party's performance made him very relieved, the tracking technique was amateur, and those with a little bit of relevant training should be able to see that he was deliberately guiding.

"Ma'am, is there anything I can do to help you?"

His sudden voice startled the masked woman, who hurriedly pulled out the electric shocker hidden in her pocket.

"Tut-tut, so you like this tune? It's not impossible. ”

As he spoke, Kilgrave had already narrowed the distance between the two of them to the extent that his abilities could take effect.

"Now, put down what you have in your hands, take off your scarf and hood, and stand where you are and wait for me to pass."

When the words fell, the woman was stunned at first, and then did so.

"It's not bad, it's even overkill as a transition."

The woman has brown hair, and from her countenance, she is of mixed Asian and European descent, which is quite in line with his aesthetics, and her age looks like she should be in her early twenties.

"What's your name, where do you live, and why are you following me?"

"My name is Skye, I don't have a home, and I'm following you because I have a friend who was taken to the hospital by you."
