(Today will be the third night watch. The second night watch will be around one to two in the afternoon, and the third night watch will be around eight in the evening. Everyone, please tune in.)
"I haven't formally introduced myself. You can call me Frank, Frank Castle." Frank extended his hand to Li Jie.
"Hello, Frank. Thank you for what happened last time. Otherwise, I might have died. You can continue to call me Nightcrawler, "Li Jie said after shaking hands with Frank.
"Okay, Nightcrawler. Have you had any conflicts with the Stanich family recently? "Frank's eyes became a little sharp.
"Why do you ask?" Li Jie frowned. He didn't know what Frank meant by this question.
"I have been keeping an eye on a warehouse of the Stanich family recently." Frank turned his eyes in the direction of the dock area and stopped staring at Li Jie. "Their recent actions are a little strange."
"For example?" Li Jie asked. "For example, the intensity of their defense has increased by several levels." Frank took out a pack of cigarettes and took one out to ask Li Jie if he needed it.
Li Jie shook his head and refused Frank's cigarette. Frank lit one for himself and continued. "Do you know about the Hongshui Security Company?"
This was a familiar name. Li Jie and Peter were secretly shocked by the power of the Hongshui Security Company. They could replace more than half of the police surveillance programs in Brooklyn.
This was not something that an ordinary group could do. As a megacity, the area and population of New York had far exceeded the area and population of many ordinary cities.
"I do know about the Hongshui Security Company, and I also know that they replaced more than half of the surveillance programs in Brooklyn." Li Jie didn't hide this because it would not benefit either of them at this time.
He was also very curious about the background of this mysterious Hongshui Security Company. "I didn't expect them to be so powerful." Frank was silent for a moment after hearing Li Jie's words.
"I've investigated the Hongshui Security Company. This is a mercenary company in the name of security." In the dark night, only the faint flicker of the cigarette in Frank's hand could be seen. "Their company's main business is mercenary business."
"Including providing protection to other companies in the Middle East, or eliminating terrorists near the oil company," Frank said faintly.
"They also took over many government projects, including urban security in Afghanistan and Iraq. The US government outsources it to them, "Frank said as he finished the last puff of his cigarette.
"Recently, I believe that the Hongshui Security Company's mercenaries have been added to the Stanich family's defense forces. Their equipment and training are obviously better, and most of them have been to the battlefield! "
Li Jie was silent when he heard Frank's words. This should be the change brought about by the drug trading point in the underground garage with Peter.
The Stanich family was more cautious, and what role did the Hongshui Security Company play in this matter? The matter was getting more complicated, and Li Jie began to feel a headache.
"Frank, do you know that the Hongshui Security Company has mutants? Or modified mutants. " Li Jie suddenly had a hunch that the invisible mutant he met in the underground garage was from the Hongshui Security Company.
"Mutants? It's not that easy to find out, "Frank said with uncertainty.
"I met a mutant before when I was dealing with an underground trading point of the Stanich family." Li Jie then told him about the encounter in the underground garage.
"The mutant you're talking about is probably from the Hongshui Security Company." Frank also thought that the mutant was from the Hongshui Security Company. He had been tracking the Stanich family for several months, and there were no signs of mutants in the family. "Maybe there are other mutants here, and they're here specifically to deal with us."
"Why do you still want to provoke the Stanich family? I remember I told you last time that this family is not to be trifled with. "Frank asked Li Jie's purpose.
Naturally, Li Jie could not say that it was for a mission, so he said it. "Do you think I'm a good person who pretends to be fine and let them go after being taken advantage of and almost killed by them?"
"Hmph, an eye for an eye." A smile seemed to appear on Frank's zombie-like face. "An eye for an eye." Li Jie finished Frank's sentence.
"This is my contact information. The code is to tap the microphone three times, three short and one long." Frank left a contact information to Li Jie, and Li Jie gave his contact information to Frank. "Keep in touch. If the Stanich family moves, I'll let you know."
Li Jie watched Frank leave. He didn't expect to get involved in such a deep mess. Now even if he wanted to leave, he might not be able to.
The next afternoon, inside the Osborne Group.
"I heard that the test was successful." Tim, the CEO of the Osborne Group, asked in Dr. Connors' office.
"Yes, now both mice in the test are healthy." Dr. Connors said with some pride.
"Then start the human test immediately." Tim was not interested in the mouse test. What he needed was the data from the human test.
"What? No! "Dr. Connors couldn't believe Tim's decision. "We've just started the live test! We don't know if it's harmful to the human body! "
"We need more test data to verify, and where can we find volunteers to do the test!" Dr. Connors didn't want to do the human test so simply and hastily, because it could easily have irreversible and terrible consequences.
"Volunteers? Just go to the disabled veterans hospital. Doctor, you have to understand that we have no time! "Tim's words were cold and cruel. "Norman Osborn's life is coming to an end!"
"Tim! You have to know that no one can avoid death except God. "Dr. Connors was still trying to convince Tim. "Even Norman Osborn is no exception. He can't save himself at the cost of other people's lives!"
"Doctor, I think you need to take a break for a while. I will temporarily relieve you of all your duties in the Osborne Group. When you understand, you can recover. I will give you enough human test data. "Tim made his decision without any emotion.
Tim takes an injection of serum and leaves Dr. Connors' lab. Peter Parker, who was in the observation room of the laboratory, didn't know what had just happened.
Peter devoted his attention to the observation of the test data.
"Reinier, help me prepare a car. I'm going to the disabled veterans hospital." Tim went to his office and casually told his assistant.
"Oh, Mr. Tim, it's like this. Mr. Harry Osborne will hold a hearing meeting in ten minutes. "Tim's confidant, Reinier, said. "Mr. Harry told you to attend the meeting."
Under Li Jie's suggestion, Harry relied on Norman Osborn's prestige to gradually smooth out various obstacles within the Osborne Group. He has gained some rights within the group and the support of some shareholders.
Harry is no longer as constrained in the company as before. Now Harry has begun to host a separate project. It's a project about the US military's individual aircraft.
If the project is realized, the potential buyers will not only be the United States, but also many of the United States' allies. It can be said to be a very promising project.
He is going to hold a new hearing today. He wants to settle the differences and constraints within the shareholders and make the implementation of the project smoother.
As a strong support for Harry within the company, Harry must let him attend the hearing. After all, as the CEO, Tim's words within the group are still quite heavy.
"Well, Reinier, I'll give you a task." Tim handed the suitcase containing the serum to Tim. "Go to the disabled veterans hospital and find Dr. Shawn. He will know what he needs to do. "
"Understood, sir." Reinier didn't ask what was in the box, nor did he ask why he was looking for Dr. Shawn. A good confidant should be like this. As long as the boss doesn't say it, don't ask too much. Just do all the boss's orders.
Dr. Connors sat in his office decadently. He didn't know how long he had been sitting, but there was an experimental serum in front of him. The experimental serum has not been proved to be completely reliable. How can it be tested on humans?
Even if human trials are to be conducted, they must be volunteers who have signed an intention, not disabled veterans who are kept in the dark.
Dr. Connors was tormented inside, as if he had made a difficult decision. Connersberg picked up the serum in front of him and prepared to test it on himself. Come on ~ Science requires a little bit of dedication! Dr. Connors growled to himself inside.
"Oh! No! Doctor, are you crazy! " Just as Dr. Connors was about to inject the serum into his body, Peter suddenly appeared in Dr. Connors' office.
Peter grabbed Dr. Connors' serum and said in a bad tone. "Doctor, there may be something wrong with our serum."
Li Jie's words to Peter changed Dr. Connors' fate, but his previous idea of helping Harry also changed the fate of the Osborne Group.
The original Peter shouldn't have appeared at this time to stop Dr. Connors from injecting the serum, and Harry should have fallen into the power struggle of the board of directors. There was no time to call Tim to open a hearing on the new project.
Now the story has slipped to the side that Li Jie never thought of.
(Recently, some book friends complained about internal energy and felt that it was strange to have internal energy martial arts in the world of Marvel. I also read the post in the book review section and explained it. Now here is a special explanation:
The internal energy power system is one of Marvel's own power systems. In the 1970s, Marvel created a superhero who used internal energy and China's martial arts.
His name is Iron Fist and he is also a friend of Iron Man Tony Stark. Iron Fist's ability is to pour internal energy into his hands, making his hands invincible, like a piece of King Kong. He got this skill after ten years of practicing internal energy on Kunlun Mountain in China.
How about it? Is there a sense of deja vu of Iron Palm and King Kong Fist? In short, Iron Fist returned to the United States to become a Superhero after years of practicing martial arts in China and becoming a martial arts master.
In the world of Marvel, there are indeed a number of heroes and villains who practice internal energy and martial arts to fight. That's why I divided the three hero categories into: mutant ~ technology ~ and growth.
The character Iron Fist was born very early, but it is not well known in China at present. Because there is no work related to Iron Fist into China, but recently the story of Iron Fist has been made into an American TV series and will be broadcast. I believe that everyone will know more at that time.
