The Hand was actually one of the twelve masterminds at the high table.
But it was an evil existence that had no mercy for ordinary people. Even Kingpin couldn't compare to it.
At the very least, Kingpin still treated ordinary people as potential "customers" to maintain basic social order, which was to protect his own business.
Thus, while he didn't have much sympathy for ordinary people, he wouldn't kill them casually.
Relatively speaking, Kingpin had killed more gangsters in order to swallow up the gangs in America.
But that wasn't the case for the Hand.
If Luke and Matt hadn't been cleaning up the gangs in the Clinton area, the Hand definitely wouldn't have used a real estate company to relocate the residents in that apartment building.
As for the families that had moved away last, they might never see them again after they left.
Anyone who stood in the Hand's way could easily be assassinated. This was the Hand's habit of solving problems.
The ninjas of the Hand were different from the other killers at the high table.
These ninjas didn't need fame or money. They were just the Hand's knives, tools to get rid of obstacles.
As long as the Hand gave the order, they wouldn't mind killing civilians, and their hands would be stained with the blood of the innocent.
Thus, the Hand couldn't be left alive, and neither could these ninjas.
Thinking that, the patrol cars arrived, and teams of officers rushed in.
Luke watched them put a dozen children into the ambulance before he went up to the roof.
Before he got on the roof, he deactivated his invisibility and appeared on a sharp corner of the roof.
Watching the police cars drive away, he turned his head to look at another building not far away. Two dark red figures were facing him.
The blood-red lenses on his mask flickered, and he jumped up, unfurled his cloak, and glided after the ambulance.
After gliding a hundred meters, there was a flash of blue light, and the dark figure completely disappeared into the night sky.
A woman who had been staring at him gasped. "Batman? He disappeared. "
Matt's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't say anything.
Invisibility couldn't erase the sound of the Bat Armor slicing through the air, so he knew that Batman had just hidden himself.
However, he didn't want to say anything to the woman next to him.
He trusted Batman's character more than this woman.
This woman was, of course, Matt's ex-girlfriend, a woman named Erica.
Luke had revealed himself before he left for them to see, so that Matt wouldn't overthink things.
His glance clearly told the two of them, "I know you're there."
There was no need to say anything else.
Batman was cold and aloof.
Of course, a certain young master was an exception.
After all, he was doing sponsored partnerships! Without Young Master Tycoon's armor skills, Batman would find it harder and harder to survive.
Unlike now, he was openly wearing the battle armor made with Tony's technology and swaying in front of this young master. Although the young master had a lot of doubts in his heart, he was blocked by his attitude and couldn't ask any questions.
How to ask? If he asked, it would be a life-saving grace. If he asked, it would be a kowtow.
With Tony's arrogance, if he pursued the matter of the Batsuit, how was he going to repay Batman for saving his life a few times?
In front of other people, Tony could still calmly say, "Here's a cheque, fill in the numbers yourself."
But against Batman, he didn't have the confidence.
It was one thing for Batman to save those ordinary people. Did he say anything? No.
Batman never asked for money when he saved people.
That was Batman's way of winning.
Now, Matt and Erica were caught in the same moral dilemma. They didn't dare question Batman's actions at all.
Why was Batman here? That wasn't important.
Why had Batman come to save the kids? That wasn't important either.
Did Batman know anything? It wasn't important either.
Batman just liked to save people. Saving people was enough. He never explained anything to anyone.
Even if countless people were studying this important reason for the origin of the "black angel," they could only guess.
That was because they couldn't get a definite answer from Batman.
After a brief silence, Erica shook her head. "I'm leaving. I'll come to you if there's any news from the Hand."
Matt didn't say anything. He simply went downstairs and headed for Metropolitan General Hospital.
The rescued children had all been sent there. He wanted to take a look.
At that moment, Metropolitan General Hospital was busy.
More than ten children had been sent in, and they were all in terrible condition.
Luke had examined them earlier. It wasn't just that their blood had been drawn; there was also a strange mixture of toxins in their bodies.
He wasn't a newbie in medicine, but he didn't have any superpowers to treat people, either. So, he would leave it to the professionals.
Treatment was far more complicated than killing people.
Metropolitan hospitals, which were well-equipped and had many doctors, would definitely be better at examining and treating patients in a comprehensive and systematic manner.
Standing on the building diagonally across from Metropolitan General Hospital, Selina said, "The ninjas who returned earlier were too fast. Are you sure they didn't set off any alarms in that building?"
Luke said, "No."
Selina said, "Less than two minutes after the police cars set off, the Hand ninjas appeared and went straight for the old building where the children are being held captive. They're probably monitoring the police's communication channel."
Luke hummed in agreement.
Selina said, "Last time, we camped Yoshinobu's body, but none of them showed up. Someone from the 15th Precinct helped them cover up the matter. Will they show up this time?"
Luke said, "It's possible. Even if they gave up on the children, I took something that's probably important to them. "
After a brief silence, Selina said, "I'll take action when they come."
Luke asked, "Are you sure?"
Selina snorted. "I don't kill people casually, but these beasts don't deserve to be called humans. If they dare come tonight, I'll kill them. If they come, I'll kill them. If they come, I'll kill them. "
Pondering for a moment, Luke asked, "Well, they might not be able to gather a hundred people, right?"
Those ninjas weren't ordinary people. They wouldn't be able to fight with cold weapons without more than ten years of training.
Stunned for a moment, Selina said angrily, "I don't care. If they don't have a hundred people tonight, I'll kill them every time I see them from now on until I kill a hundred of them. "
Comforted, Luke finally revealed something. "Don't worry, these guys really aren't human. Do you know what I found on Yoshinobu? A Y-shaped incision from a forensic autopsy. "
Selina was surprised. "Is it possible that they just cut open a bit of the muscle to scare people?"
Although it was a little ridiculous, it was more realistic than resurrecting a corpse.
