Newburgh, New York, was located on the picturesque Hudson River. It was a 90-minute drive north of New York City. Compared with the international metropolis of New York, which was more than 100 kilometers away, Newburgh was a far cry in terms of urban scale and prosperity. What was more frightening was that the city was also rated as one of the top ten most dangerous cities in the United States.
In this small city with a population of only about 30,000, gunfights, robberies, criminal gangs armed with machetes, and even drug dealing in broad daylight could be seen on the streets every day. In 2013 alone, there were 1,350 violent crimes in this small city. The number of people who were murdered reached 230, and the number of people who were seriously injured or disabled was too many to count. One could imagine how bad the security of this city was.
If you lived in this city, a stray bullet might suddenly burst out of nowhere and blow your head off while you were taking a stroll.
After learning the address of the detective agency from O'Connor, Ye Xuan gave Ivan Vanke some instructions, then put on the Iron Man Armor again and flew towards the United States.
After getting the coordinates, Ye Xuan directly asked J.A.R.V.I.S. to lock onto the target. In less than an hour, the Iron Man Armor arrived above Newburgh.
As expected of one of the top ten most dangerous cities in the United States. As soon as Ye Xuan flew in on the Iron Man Armor, he heard several gunshots. He encountered two groups of people fighting with machetes, and another group of people trading drugs in an alley. At least the police, sorry, he did not see them.
In this city, the ratio of police to gangs reached an astonishing 1: 15. It was hard to imagine that there were less than 60 police officers in this city, while there were nearly a thousand gangs. In this city, where everyone could carry a gun, it did take unimaginable courage for the police to patrol. You might stop your car at any time, and the car opposite you would pull out a gun and shoot you.
Of course, this had nothing to do with Ye Xuan. He did not come to this city to be Spiderman or Batman, but he was impressed by the bravery of the people living in this city.
Ye Xuan did not stay for long. With the help of J.A.R.V.I.S., Ye Xuan soon found the headquarters of the Fu Libao Detective Agency that O'Connor had mentioned.
He found a hidden place nearby and landed. This kind of place was very easy to find in this city, because gangs did not want to be captured by surveillance cameras when they killed people. So even if the government installed surveillance cameras, they were all destroyed by the gangs.
After taking off the Iron Man Armor, Ye Xuan confirmed the number of the building. He walked into the elevator of the building unhurriedly, pressed the button for the fifth floor, and the elevator door slowly closed.
"Pa!" Just as the elevator door was about to close, a wide palm suddenly appeared between the elevator doors. Sensing the presence of a foreign object, the elevator doors slowly opened to both sides.
When the elevator door opened, they saw the owner of the palm that was blocking the elevator door. It was a tall white man in his thirties or forties.
The white man was about 1.8 meters tall and had a shaved head. His face was ferocious, and he wore a blue vest and a pair of jeans. His upper body was naked, and there were two huge scorpion tattoos on his exposed skin. The words "I am a bad guy" were almost engraved on his forehead.
The middle-aged white man looked at Ye Xuan standing in the elevator. Although Ye Xuan was also 1.8 meters tall, he was not as strong as him. The middle-aged white man raised the corner of his mouth with a sneer and walked toward the elevator.
After the middle-aged white man walked in. He did not press the button for the floor, but stood directly next to Ye Xuan.
The elevator door slowly closed, and the middle-aged white man's eyes gradually became evil. His hand slowly reached toward the back of his waist. There was something bulging there. At first glance, it was a pistol.
The middle-aged white man's actions naturally could not be hidden from Ye Xuan. He secretly shook his head and thought to himself that this was indeed one of the ten most dangerous cities in the United States. He had only been here for less than five minutes, and he had already encountered a robber. Moreover, this guy had a gun. If he was an ordinary person, he might really have succeeded.
He scanned the elevator with his Divine Telekinesis and saw that the surveillance camera in the elevator had been broken. No wonder this person dared to make a move in the elevator. It turned out that he already knew that the surveillance camera in the elevator was broken.
Just as the middle-aged white man's palm touched the handle of the gun, the corner of his mouth raised in a cruel smile. Just as he was about to make a move, Ye Xuan suddenly stretched out his right hand and lightly chopped the middle-aged white man's neck.
Bang!!! — —
The smile on the middle-aged white man's mouth froze. A look of disbelief flashed in his eyes, and then he fell straight down like a mountain of flesh. The elevator that was originally going up even paused for a moment before continuing to rise to the fifth floor.
Ding!
The elevator quickly reached the fifth floor. Ye Xuan did not even look at the middle-aged white man lying on the ground and directly walked out of the elevator.
As for the middle-aged white man, Ye Xuan's palm just now did not just knock him out. Just now, Ye Xuan's palm directly broke his cervical vertebrae. He would not die, but he would probably be lying in bed for the rest of his life.
This was also a small punishment Ye Xuan was giving him. After all, this middle-aged white man was obviously the kind of person who did all kinds of evil things to be able to attack an ordinary stranger. Maybe he had killed a few people. Even if he died, it would be too easy for him. Let him lie in bed for the rest of his life to atone for his crimes.
After walking out of the elevator, there was a long corridor.
When this building was originally built, the original intention was to be used as an office building. But it was obvious that in this small city with less than 30,000 people, there were only about a thousand gangsters. How could an ordinary business be run? Therefore, most of the doors on this floor were closed, and even the doors were covered with spider webs.
However, there were always exceptions. At the end of this floor, there was a shop that was clean and tidy. In front of the shop was a signboard: Fu Libao Private Detective Company!
