Chapter 21 Banquet, meet Kim and
Stark searched for information about it, and learned that both the Superburn and the Bevel Monster were seen in the same game.
Similarly, according to the keywords searched, the EMP transmitter and the atomic gun that appeared only once at the Midtown High School Tech Fair have prototypes in the game.
Maybe there will be some connection between the two.
Therefore, he had no interest in banquets, but he became a little interested when he heard that Merlin would also go.
…………
"Change into formal clothes, there are many important people at this banquet, and it will also be crucial to your future development."
Merlin, dressed in overalls, had just returned home when he was urged by George, who had been waiting for a long time.
"Okay, but it's just an EMP emitter, and it doesn't have that much face, right?" Before entering the door, he turned around and asked curiously.
If it is said that the technology of the atomic gun is perfect, it is better to say that the finished product has come out.
"Of course you don't have that much face, because of the high crime rate in various regions lately, and there are so many big things going on in Manhattan and Brooklyn."
"The impact of these two events on society is too great, and the mayor has no choice but to hold this banquet."
"But your EMP emitter is also a more important point." George explained it to him in general.
"Okay!" Merlin shrugged, then closed the door.
When he returned to the room, he didn't wear casual clothes or anything like a maverick, but put on a formal suit normally.
If he wore casual clothes to the banquet, it was also George, who was his guardian, who was disgraced.
And he's a high school student now, so if it's just a party between classmates and friends, it's certainly okay to wear some casual clothes.
But at this kind of formal banquet, wearing casual clothes is a sign of disrespect.
After all, people who can accept this kind of banquet invitation will prepare a formal dress at home.
…………
"That's it!"
As Merlin walked out of the room, George's eyes flashed with nostalgia.
"It's been a long time since I've seen you wear this suit, but I didn't expect it to fit well."
"The body surge phase has passed, and it hasn't been long."
This suit was specially taken to him by his father at the beginning of the year to customize, and he often wears it to various parties.
"Let's go, pay attention to the banquet."
George smiled and rubbed his head, then pushed him into the elevator.
"By the way, what about Gwen?" On the elevator, Merlin asked casually.
"She's gone to a band rehearsal, and like you, she hasn't seen each other much lately." George looked a little emotional as he spoke.
Before I knew it, my daughter had grown up.
But he's busy himself, because of the lizardmen, he's still anxious, if it weren't for this banquet, he would still be in the police station with the officers searching Apple City.
The two chatted for a while along the way, and the relationship became much closer.
…………
Manhattan, Pike Avenue, Waldorf Astoria.
"This hotel is the tallest hotel in the world, has hosted successive presidents, and has witnessed a lot of the history of the Eagle Nation."
"Banquets are usually held to bring together many parliamentarians and politicians."
In the hallway, George introduces Merlin to the hotel.
Soon, during the chat, the two had come to the gate of a building, and many people in luxurious dresses and suits entered one after another.
George straightened his tie and walked over with two invitations.
The person in charge of the guard took a look, and after confirming that it was correct, he bent down slightly, smiled sideways and stretched out his hand to signal the two to enter.
As he walked through the gate, Merlin was greeted by the opulent hall inside, with long tables scattered throughout the hall, and fashionable women and elegant men in the bright lights shuttling through, with the occasional chuckle like wind chimes coming from the spot.
Merlin glanced at it roughly, and quickly fixed his gaze on the group in the center of the hall.
Stark, Obadi, Hammer, and the others stood around with their glasses in their hands, not knowing what they were talking about.
Not far from them, a burly bald man in a white suit clinked glasses with a smile on his face and a middle-aged man with gray hair, a suit and a look of majesty between his eyebrows.
Kim and?
Merlin was a little surprised, but he didn't expect him to come to the banquet too.
However, thinking about the identity of the other party and the reason why the mayor held a banquet this time, I understand.
"Let's go over." George patted Merlin on the shoulder, then walked over to Kim's position.
…………
"What do you think about the massacre in Hell's Kitchen?" Mayor Christian asked with a sip of red wine and a slightly longer voice.
Although Kim is ostensibly an entrepreneur and philanthropist, as mayor, he must be clear about his background.
It's just that both of them tacitly know that as long as they don't touch the bottom line, they won't break this balance.
"Of course they deserve it, but as a cooperative policeman, they also deserve to die, and the only victim has become an evil dragon at this time."
"None of this is something to celebrate." Jin He shook his head and said with these pitiful words.
"But we have to go to the root of the problem, and the source is because these three gangs ignore the law and use the loopholes of the law to escape."
"If the sword of Damocles has not fallen, then there will only be a butcher's knife." Christian said faintly, with a hint of hammering in his words.
Hell's Kitchen is the most chaotic place in Apple City, and if something happens, he will only find Kim.
Hearing this, Jin He's face was as usual.
"This can only show that the blade of the sword of Damocles is blunt, and there is no shocking cold light."
Christian's expression sank, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly saw George and the two.
"Hi, Mayor Christian, Mr. Fisk." George greeted the two with Merlin.
"Looks like someone who can sharpen the blade of the sword is here." Christian raised an eyebrow and looked at Merlin meaningfully.
Kim chuckled twice and praised Merlin.
"This should be the little genius who developed a miniature electromagnetic pulse emitter, Merlin Shaw, I heard that in order to reduce your pressure, a weapon was specially developed to intercept criminals."
"What an enviable family relationship."
Since he had been in contact, he must have known Merlin, so he couldn't help but be a little meaningful when he spoke.
"Ahaha, it's not that exaggerated." George sneered twice, his attitude a little cold.
Kim didn't care about this, but looked at Merlin with interest.
A lot of the weapons he has been holding lately have been bought from the other party.
