Infinite Possession of Beauty

Chapter 469: Explosive Antique Shop

Hell's Kitchen, near the edge of West Midtown.

A little black boy looked at the figure passing by, and immediately shouted excitedly at the mother beside him.

"Mommy, the defender!"

He pointed to the shaky petite figure in front of him, and shouted excitedly.

"Hey, Jamie, how did I teach you!"

However, contrasting and excited children, black women with obvious lateral development on the side pulled the children into their arms nervously, and mobilized their racial talents and said in a rap-like tone: “Don’t get involved with these superheroes. They are not good guys."

"But, Mom, the defenders protected the Hell's Kitchen?"

"No, they bring more threats to the Hell's Kitchen. You forgot what your damn brother was in jail because of these defenders."

"Guardian, get out of Hell's Kitchen!"

Before the black woman could finish her words, a depraved white man on the side of the road cursed.

"Hell's Kitchen does not need you clowns to protect!"

Bang!

However, before the white man could finish his words, he saw the petite figure waving his fist and leaving a clear fist mark directly on the street light pole beside him.

Zizi

With a heavy blow, the dim light of the street lamp flickered and suddenly lit up.

"..."

It is so simple and rude and huge, but it has undoubtedly achieved great results.

Looking at the clearly visible fist prints on the metal street light pole, whether it was a white man cursing or a black woman complaining not far away, they wisely chose to shut up and fled away from the figure.

"Humph."

Turning to look at these escaping guys, and then sweeping the quiet pedestrians who bowed their heads around, Jessica curled her mouth with an expression of disdain on her face.

For Hell's Kitchen, the defender exists and everyone likes it.

Although the vast majority of residents are grateful for the superheroes who can guarantee their safety and avoid being oppressed by criminal organizations, there is always a small number of people who are not cold about the existence of defenders, and think that it is because of their existence that they lead to hell. The kitchen is in chaos.

Even, many people miss the back who was once ruled by Jin He.

Matt’s approach to these stubborn annoyances is to face them with a tolerant attitude, and Jessica obviously can’t do that.

Without beating them to the ground to find teeth, it was the highest endurance limit she could achieve.

"Bullying soft and afraid of hard."

With a cold snort, Jessica raised the bottle in her hand and took a sip into her mouth.

The life of a superhero is not as good as imagined, especially the defender is not a well-known superhero organization like the Avengers and there is no billionaire like Tony Stark as a source of gold. With the death of Danny, it is even more so. Let everyone fall into a certain degree of economic crisis, and even in order to deal with this situation, the member of the defender Luke Cage has started the idea of ​​establishing a company that hires heroes.

Although it has not yet reached this level, it is almost the same.

If it were not for her status as a defender member for her private detective work, she might have followed Luke Cage to start some hire hero company.

The idea emerged in her mind, Jessica habitually picked up the bottle in her hand and took another sip. However, a mere bottle of wine was not a few steps away for her drunkard, and she hadn't waited for her to arrive. The bottle in the hands of the destination is already empty.

"Shit~"

Shaking the empty wine bottle in her hand, Jessica could not help cursing in a low voice.

While scolding her, she stepped forward and continued to walk in the direction in front of her.

"Ok?"

Seeing that the building where the target was located was right in front of her eyes, Jessica instinctively speeded up her pace, but the wheelchair passing by made her gaze subconsciously chasing.

"Hell's Kitchen still has such an old guy living here?"

Looking at the scrawny old man in the wheelchair with raised eyebrows, Jessica's heart flashed with doubts, but withdrawing her gaze towards the old man and the silver-haired man pushing the wheelchair, Jessica returned her attention to the distance before her eyes again. At the antique shop not far away.

Not long ago, she had just received a case, because she was in trouble because of a small problem, and she needed Li Ran's intelligence in the antique shop.

boom--

However, Jessica hadn't been near.

With a huge explosion already rumbling, a large amount of red mist emerged from the antique shop under Jessica's gaze, instantly tearing the entire antique shop to pieces.

"James!"

The huge explosion impact knocked Jessica's petite figure into the air, and controlled her body to stabilize. Jessica looked at the antique shop in front of him and turned into a sober look that was originally drunk. , Without any hesitation, she controlled her body and flew into the antique shop.

"James!"

"James!"

Because of the explosion, the entire antique shop was in a mess, a large amount of smoke covered everything, and the ground was full of antique remains collected by Li Ran.

Shouting Li Ran’s English name, the moment Jessica rushed into the antique shop, she seemed to see a figure covered in red mist flashing past, but before she could think more, she collapsed from the antique shop. Li Ran's figure was found under the shelf in the ruins.

"James!"

With an exclamation in her mouth, Jessica flew to the shelf and fell down. She stretched out her hand to easily remove the heavy iron frame from Li Ran's body, and when she removed the shelf, it appeared that she was lying down and unconscious. Li Ran awake.

...

"How is the situation?"

Hell's kitchen, emergency room outside the hospital.

After hearing the news, Matt took a deep breath and calmed down his fast breathing, then turned his neck to the defender who came first.

"I don't know the specific situation."

Facing Matt’s question, Luke Cage also shook his head in a dazed manner, pointed his finger at Jessica’s position, and then realized that Matt couldn’t see his movements, and then he said: " I also rushed over after receiving a call from Jessica. The one in the emergency room seemed to be in contact with the Assassin Brotherhood."

For the relationship between Jessica and Li Ran, the rest of the defenders are not quite clear.

They only knew that the injured person in the emergency room was Jessica's liaison to the Brotherhood of Assassins.

Hearing Luke Cage's answer, Matt turned his head in Jessica's direction.

Although he couldn't see Jessica's expression at the moment, through the keen touch expanded by the ripples, Matt still clearly felt his inner anxiety and worry at the moment.

Faced with this situation, Matt was silent for a while, then reached out and touched the wall of the emergency room.

Touching the wall, relying on the power of the ripples to amplify his super senses, Matt clearly sensed Li Ran's situation within a wall.

"Huh~"

Loosing his palm on the wall, Matt took a deep breath and said to Jessica: "Everything in the emergency room is stable, so Jessica, you don't need to worry too much."

"Really?"

Upon hearing Matt's words, Jessica, who was originally sitting in the emergency room, raised her head subconsciously, looked at the blind lawyer in front of him, and said hesitantly.

"of course."

In response, Matt nodded affirmatively. He turned his head to hear the noise from the emergency room, and then said silently: "In fact, you can ask Claire inside for the specific situation."

Because of the relationship with the defender, after Jessica found out that Li Ran had been attacked, she took him directly to the hospital where Claire was the nurse at Midnight.

Coming out of the emergency room, Claire looked at the defenders standing at the door, and greeted Matt without any accident on his face. Then he made a relieved expression and said, "The specific situation is still unclear. , But because of the timely escort of Jessica, the patient’s injuries are not serious. Those injured parts look serious, but in fact they are just some superficial traumas. You only need to bandage and cultivate for a period of time to recover, but Compared to these, I care more about the injured person’s mental condition. He seems to have suffered a huge blow, and his whole mind is in an unstable state."

"Claire, can we meet James?"

Everything found in the antique shop has always been a question that Jessica cares about. Now that she knows Li Ran's situation, she immediately asked.

"..."

Hearing Jessica's request, Claire turned his head and glanced at the defenders in front of him. After a moment of silence, he stepped to the side and reminded: "You try to shorten the time, the patient needs to rest. "

"Thank you, Claire."

Matt knew very well that the reason why Claire made the same request to meet with Jessica was entirely because of his relationship with the defender, so he stopped his footsteps and thanked the midnight nurse before entering the emergency room.

"Matt, the injuries suffered by the patient are not easy at first glance. If there is any danger, you must be careful."

Facing Matt's gratitude, Claire straightened her expression and then reminded him.

As a midnight nurse, Claire has seen Matt and the scarred figure of the defenders more than once. It is precisely because she knows what these superheroes have done to protect the Hell's Kitchen, she will willingly help them and others and be herself Things within our power.

...

"James."

Entering the emergency room, Jessica looked at Li Ran who was lying on the bed with a bandage wrapped around her body, her voice subconsciously became a little lower.

He looked at the weak figure on the bed, and couldn't connect it with the guy he knew in the past.

"Ahem, you're here Jessica..."

On the hospital bed, slowly turning his neck, Li Ran looked at Jessica and the defender who appeared in the ward, and said with a weak tone specially.

In order to be able to draw the role of [Guo Haihuang], Li Ran can also be considered.

He exploded his antique shop directly, just to make everything appear real.

Moreover, in this way, pulling oneself into the incident as an introduction can not only achieve the effect of reaping legend, but also can reasonably erase the suspicion from oneself.Rationalize one's own identity in a way that does not have a high sense of presence, with a sense of personal participation but not too conspicuous.

Simply put, it is an NPC, the same as the task trigger.

As for the target of the trigger, it seems to be the defenders in front of you, but in fact they have vaguely turned the stronger Avengers.

After all, when [Guo Haihuang] spoke about the cooperation between Wanda and Kuaiyin, who had a strong hatred for the Avengers, it already represented that they and the Avengers were destined to have a battle.

However, in order to make everything more intense, Li Ran used an example to draw the defenders into it.

After all, to be serious, the defenders were also one of the important participants in Huoyun's exit.

As the main body of various avatars, integrating many acting skills, Li Ran's acting skills are naturally to the level of perfection.Especially with the use of [Ultimate Creatures] to control the level of the body's cells and the simulated injuries that are more real than real, the defenders cannot see any flaws in it.

Even Matt, who has a sense of ripple enhancement, thinks that Li Ran has suffered a real injury.

"James, what happened and why would the antique shop..."

Because of the bandage, Jessica could not see Li Ran's expression, but she could still feel the unusual tone in her tone.

"The Brotherhood of Assassins is destroyed."

Turning his gaze, scanning the defender in front of him, Li Ran made an explosive speech in a tone of mourning that was more than heartbreaking.

"what?!"

Sure enough, at the moment when he heard the message from his mouth, whether it was Jessica or Matt, they couldn't help showing a look of shock.

Unlike Li Ran, who is hidden underneath and only has contact with Jessica, on the surface, his clone and defender of the Brotherhood of Assassins have experience fighting side by side.

Therefore, upon hearing the news that the former comrades-in-arms and their organization, the mysterious Brotherhood of Assassins, had collapsed, the defenders immediately showed a look of shock.

"But why, how come?"

Perhaps because the news was too shocking, Luke Cage didn't know how to respond.

"That explosion, the explosion in the antique shop, should also have something to do with the destruction of the Assassin Brotherhood!"

When everyone was shocked by the news, Jessica immediately thought of the explosion of the antique shop, Li Ran's attack, and the flashing figure she had seen in the antique shop.
