Gotham Wharf is a very busy place. There are many people here every day, some for money, some for a new life, of course, after the "mutant event", more people come here to chase or witness one The real rise of the race.

What the Devil Gang did in Mexico was shown to the world as the people on Earth won the second alien invasion war. When people discovered that a nation of mutants was about to be established, they turned their attention behind them. , They found in a daze that the mutants around them seemed to disappear overnight.

When the doomed person came to the front of the stage, they were doomed to cease to be isolated and helpless modern nomads, they were doomed to cease to be modern society, the scattered sand of modern civilization, and the people in this era are blessed, because They will truly witness one big event after another, provided they can survive to the end.

This world is like a pot being boiled, and people are the beating fish in this pot, just like the words once said by the archangel Gabriel: "Only through the most painful darkness can you be qualified to accept the dawn. The morning sun."

Uh, the topic is a bit far off. In short, today, in the early morning of a very ordinary day in Gotham City, a special guest came to the Port Authority of Gotham Wharf, when she walked off the luxury car , Almost immediately attracted the attention of all men below this building, and the hostility of all women.

"I have an appointment with Mr. Saibo, Director of the Port Authority!"

This beautiful woman in a dark long skirt walked to the front desk and smiled at the little sister on duty at the front desk and said, "We have an appointment today."

The lady at the front desk was a bit lazy, and she hadn't taken care of her long hair very much, but she was still the target of tens of thousands of people in this building and even the entire port area. Through the morning sun, she could clearly see the four unfolding behind her Only wings as thin as a cicada's wing, matched with her tall and slender figure, made her look like a legendary fairy.

Yes, this is a mutant, the Salvadoran Angel, a veteran mutant who has been on the battlefield, once a rival of Cyber, Magneto’s valued subordinate, and now the deputy security captain of the Gotham Port Authority and the manager of the front desk Like this kind of idle life now.

El Salvador’s angel’s sexual orientation is normal. She is not interested in women, so she just smiled perfunctorily at this beautiful homosexual smile, knocked on the computer a few times, and threw a pass to After looking at the intellectual beauty in front of her, she grabbed a box of potato chips from the drawer and turned her attention to the soap opera that she saw half of last night.

"Director Cyber ​​is on the top floor, but he should not be at work yet at this time. You can go to the top floor office to find his assistant."

She glanced at the beauty who looked unchanged, then looked at her registration information, and whispered:

"Friendly reminder, Ms. May doesn't like too many competitors like you to be close to Mr. Cyber, so you'd better be more dignified, Miss Enmiranda."

"Call me Tate, thank you."

This beautiful woman with a trace of yellow race was not angry because of the bad attitude of the Salvadoran angel. She showed an impeccable smile at her, and then, led by the assistant, took the elevator and came to the 17th floor. It is the top floor where the director of Cyberspace is located.

As a result, as soon as I walked out of the elevator, I saw a beautiful assistant who was wearing a black professional attire, short hair, a heroic but cold face, and glasses, waiting like an iceberg at the elevator entrance. Miss Tate was shocked. Then I heard Mei opened the folder and said fluently:

"Miranda Tate, 26 years old, single, well-known in Europe, joined the New Energy Future Foundation in New York 4 years ago. After Tony and Stark stepped down last year, he served as a director of the foundation and controlled the fund with a clever hand. 60% of the funds will circulate. You came to Gotham this time to find a new energy proving ground in this city, right?"

"Uh, roughly correct."

Miss Tate has traveled almost all over the world, but she has not been treated like this anywhere, but she is very professional, even in the face of this kind of private information leakage, she did not show a very angry expression, on the contrary, She breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Mei in front of her calmly, and said softly:

"You are Melinda May, the personal assistant of Director Cyber? I heard that 85% of the decision-making of the entire Port Authority is made by you alone, and the success rate is over 90%. You are really good. Interested in changing jobs?"

In a simple sentence, Mei's aura was instantly overwhelmed. Obviously, the woman in front of her was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

The atmosphere became a bit bad for a while, May pushed his glasses, and his voice softened:

"Mr. Cyber ​​is not here today, Miss Tate, come back another day."

"Oh?"

Miranda Tate took out a small mobile phone from her handbag and shook it in front of May’s eyes: "But I just called him, and he said he will be here soon. It seems you made a mistake this time, May. Linda."

"Ding Dong"

In the room where two women with different styles talked, the elevator door next to it opened, and Saibo, who was rarely dressed in a business suit, appeared at the elevator entrance. He was wearing a pair of dark sunglasses and holding a coercion in his hand. Walking stick, he looked at the two women in front of him with some confusion, and asked in a low voice:

"What's wrong? Ladies, is it popular to talk about business in front of the office?"

While speaking, Cyber ​​naturally stretched out his arms around Mei's slender waist. The latter gave him a blank look, turned and swayed away, leaving room for Cyber ​​and Miss Tate.

"Come in, Miranda."

Cyber ​​was a gentleman and opened the office door for this intellectual beauty. The latter showed him an amorous smile, and walked into Cyber's office, which was almost never used after it was installed.

In all fairness, this Miss Miranda is a real 360° beauty with no dead ends, especially the tiny scar on her forehead, not only did not destroy this beauty, on the contrary, it also added a different kind of charm to her.

But this is not the reason why Cyber ​​is such a gentleman. The women around Cyber ​​have their own characteristics, and none of them are worse than Miranda. The real problem is that Cyber ​​has dealt with the "New Energy Future Foundation" before. Tony was once the chairman of the foundation, and Bruce Wayne was also a director. As far as Cyber ​​knew, there were also big chaebols such as Norman Osborne. This was a seemingly inconspicuous, in fact One of the deepest foundations in the United States.

Even Cyber ​​is also a member of this foundation, and Miss Tate has a mysterious origin. She succeeded Tony as the chairman in just 2 years, and Tony Stark's romantic character is also The unwillingness to provoke this flower has already explained a lot of problems.

The woman in front of her was not simple, and there was an amazing secret in her mind, and Cyber ​​was absolutely sure of this.

The most important thing is, I don’t know if it’s an illusion. Saibo always feels that I have seen a woman who can make such an impression on Saibo before, but there are really not many. This is also because May is hostile to this woman. One of the reasons is that Cyber ​​has enough trouble, and she doesn't want Cyber ​​to get involved in another trouble.

"I heard you and Bruce had a good conversation?"

Cyberp poured a cup of hot tea for Miss Tate, sat in a chair, and said with a relaxed smile:

"Then you have to be careful, Miranda. As far as I know, Bruce's attraction to the opposite sex has not declined after getting married, but has increased a lot. I don't want to see a beautiful lady like you attracted to him. That is simply a disaster for all men in the entire Americas."

Miss Tate who said this couldn't help covering her mouth and laughed:

"You can really talk, Mr. Cyber, you are not as difficult to approach as in the legend. The last time I ate with Tony, he told me that you are a mobile disaster that is arrogant, violent, rude and will always cause trouble. Look now Come, he is probably jealous of you."

"What is jealous of me? I am younger than him and richer than him?"

Saibo smiled and raised his legs:

"No, no, no, I am 2 years older than him, and my assets are less than one-tenth of Stark's enterprise. Compared with him, I am a poor old and poor man. Let us turn to the topic. Well, I read the newsletter that Bruce sent me. The New Energy Future Foundation is planning to build a test site in Mexico? Why? There are now wars and chaos, and accidents will happen at any time. IMHO, this is not a good idea. "

When Miranda heard Saibo say this, she stretched out her finger, brushed her long brown hair, and said in a meaningful way:

"Did I see the wrong person? Isn't the king or president of the future mutant sitting in front of me? The Devil Gang has a heavily armed army, Mr. Cyber, your army is very strong, our professional military adviser told you Director, the war is likely to end within 4-7 months, so when Mr. Norman proposes to build a potentially dangerous proving ground on your future territory, shouldn’t we talk to that place in advance? Is Your Majesty the King ready to say hello?"

"Ok"

Saibo's smile disappeared little by little. He played with the ruby ​​on the tip of the cane in his hand, his fingers were beating on the surface of the gem, and finally, he took off his sunglasses, and the flames of his eyes appeared in front of Miranda. , A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of this charming lady.

"So, can I think that this is an investment by the New Energy Future Foundation? Are you ready to stand in line?"

Saibo asked directly, this naked question made Ms. Miranda some not know how to answer. Finally, she frowned and said softly:

"Big people have the rules of the game. Mr. Cyber, unless they see victory with their own eyes, they will not choose to stand in line. Although Tony has always been on your side, he is not enough to push the entire foundation closer to you. Inside the association, many members are inclined to a completely open new market, but Mexico’s traditional industries have extremely high profits. It is very difficult to get those big people to give up their benefits. It’s really, very difficult."

"Oh, understand, you just made arrangements in advance. If I win, you will congratulate me, smile and wear a crown for me; if I lose, you will step on my body without hesitation, and then It’s great to re-divide Mexico. Whether I win or lose, you are all winners."

Cyber ​​shook his head. He was very dissatisfied with the answer, but he didn't push this lady Tate who was acting as a microphone anymore. He sighed and changed his posture, crossing his fingers on his legs:

"Well, I agree to the application, but it can't be placed in northern Mexico, where my military camp is located. You can choose any other location. In addition, you really don't plan to participate in the great event of the founding of the mutants? You see, one A country full of waste, just like you said, a market completely open for you."

When Miss Miranda heard Saibo’s promise, she immediately sighed. The words behind Saibo, she naturally heard the sound and knew grace. She interrupted Saibo’s words, took out a business card from her bag, and put her finger on Above, pushed it to the eyes of Saibo.

"The foundation is very interested in Hanmer Industries after it has changed hands again, so we decided to inject US$10 billion into it to let Hanmer Industries regenerate its vitality. This gentleman will be responsible for everything. I have other things in Gotham, so I will leave first."

Miss Tate stood up, reached out to Cyber, smiled and said:

"Happy cooperation, Director Cyber."

"Happy cooperation, Miss Miranda."

The two hands were held together and then separated in an instant. The moment Ms. Tate walked out of the office, Cyber's eyes narrowed slightly. With a movement of her fingers, Miss Tate's legs suddenly tightened, and her whole body collapsed. Towards the ground, Cyber ​​also quickly got up from his chair and hugged the caught Miranda in his arms.

This scene is so beautiful, even Miss Miranda has a blush on her face, and Cyber ​​is very cooperative and whispers in her ear:

"Did you know? Miranda, the scar on your forehead is really beautiful"

"That's a memorial left by an old friend of mine"

Miranda pushed Cyber ​​away and said in a very polite low voice: "I already have a marriage contract, Mr. Cyber, although you are very attractive, I don’t want my fiance to be jealous. See you next time, yes, I I will take some landscape photos in Gotham recently. Can I come to the dock area?"

Saibo put his hands in his pockets and shrugged:

"welcome any time."

After the fascinating lady left, May came silently behind Saibo, and she asked in a low voice:

"how about it?"

Saibo squinted his eyes and replied: "Excellent physical flexibility, excellent response to nerves, cocoon between the fingers, and stronger soul than ordinary people. It seems that Miss Miranda, who has a wide range of interests, is serving as chairman and top photographer. In addition to the teacher, I will occasionally take a guest appearance on a special job like a killer and focus on her, Mei, I can feel that she seems to be coming for us."
