The energy index of this inexplicably colorful pillar of light was far beyond imagination. It wasn't something that Earth's technology could create at this stage at all.
However, it did not cause any obvious damage, which made it seem more like something controlled by humans than a purely natural phenomenon.
He had just developed a third-generation reactor with more energy, when a mysterious incident happened next to his building.
As a top scientist in one of the world's top technology companies, the tycoon felt a strong sense of crisis.
"I can't relax," he murmured. "I feel like something's going to happen."
On the intercity train in the distance, a certain blonde man narrowed his eyes and recalled the rainbow bridge that had just disappeared from his sight.
Maybe this world wasn't as peaceful as he had imagined?
Could what Nick Fury said be true?
Did Hydra really still exist, and was secretly developing again?
He hadn't believed the cunning black baldie at first, but the colorful pillar of light was a little similar to something in his memory, like … the Tesseract?
Although the colors were different, they both gave off a strange and strange feeling.
On the train, he looked away and sighed. Forget it, I'll call Nick Fury and ask him when I get back.
Hiding had never been his style!
…
The news in New York was always so timely.
When Luke's main body got home from work, the TV was full of today's colorful pillar of light incident in Central Park.
As a country that had a soft spot for aliens and was super loyal to them, the people of the United States would link anything they couldn't understand, explain, or understand to aliens.
Today's colorful pillar of light incident was no exception.
On a daily basis, a large number of professionals were pulled onto TV stations as guests like circus monkeys, and began to perform for the people of the United States in various ways.
Some of them started from physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, science and technology, philosophy, sociology, and other subjects. Some of them analyzed from the perspectives of hallucinations, mass hysteria, terrorist attacks, movie propaganda, juvenile pranks, and other practical situations.
Some criticized the president for being incompetent and unable to make the United States deal with an alien invasion.
There were also calls for the next generation to be educated, and not to believe or spread rumors would be the mainstay of the United States' future.
There were so many things, but not many people really cared about this matter. Instead, they all took this matter as their own fault and casually increased their own popularity.
Luke and Selina enjoyed their dinner and watched with great interest.
This kind of program that talked nonsense with a straight face and could even come up with all kinds of scientific evidence was like watching a comedy for the two people who knew the truth. They were in an extremely good mood.
Selina asked casually, "So, Thor is actually going home to inherit the throne that he doesn't want, but he wants to be with his beloved Cinderella Jane more?"
Luke stopped the Old Beijing Chicken Roll in his mouth and frowned for a moment before he nodded slowly. "Strictly speaking, there's nothing wrong with the plot."
Selina took a big sip of her cappuccino and laughed contentedly. "Does Thor like fairy tales too? I remember that when you first looked for information about him, you found a rune symbol in a children's science book, right? "
Luke dipped the Peking Chicken Roll in the sweet sauce again and took a bite. The sweet sauce, the tender chicken, and the crispy cucumber gave off a strange and wonderful taste. "That's right. Although His Highness is more than a thousand years old, we can't deny that he still has the pure heart of a child."
Selina gagged and glared at him angrily. "Can you not use such disgusting words to describe Thor? Although he's not disgusting, it's disgusting to hear you describe him like that. A 1500-year-old child? Isn't that a Giant Infant? "
But after complaining, she suddenly exclaimed, "That's right. You also said that Sif and Thor were childhood friends, and that she had feelings for him. This … really sounds like a third-rate TV show."
Luke shrugged. "It's more or less the clichéd kind. If it was more artistic, Sif would have been blackened and locked up this couple. She would have given them a game of analyzing the despicable nature of the human soul and let them know that love wasn't worth mentioning in the face of survival. It would have been a warning to everyone that only single dogs can live well. "
Selina's eyes lit up when she heard that. "Huh, this plot sounds interesting. Which horror movie is it?"
Luke was speechless.
Who knew if there was such a film in this world? He was just mixing the creativity of Saw and the FFF group together and bragging about it.
Selina was a little regretful. "If a professional screenwriter hears this idea, he should be able to come up with a good script. This kind of script doesn't need too much money to be made. I'll be able to see it."
Luke rubbed his chin. It was a pity that Big Ben's domineering and beautiful beard was gone. "Hm, interesting. I'll find a screenwriter to try it out when I have time."
Selina found that odd. "Huh?" She had just said it in passing. After all, she was half a horror movie lover — and at heart, she was a horror movie lover.
Luke chuckled. "If you really make a movie, let's go watch it together."
Selina asked, "You said that?"
Luke raised three fingers. "I promise."
After chatting, they drove out together in the middle of the night.
They were going out for business tonight.
The Rainbow Bridge incident in Central Park during the day had caused a huge uproar in New York.
The previous cases, including Luke's beating up of the hooligans, had all been pulled together by some people to make up some apocalyptic theories. This was especially obvious on the Internet.
There might not be a lot of other things in America, but the number of neurotic people at the bottom and the hooligans who took advantage of the situation was always over the limit.
The consequence of the extreme polarization between the rich and the poor was that there would always be a large number of people at the bottom who were full of evil thoughts. They were just waiting for an opportunity to vent all the dissatisfaction that had accumulated in their daily lives. In any case, they had nothing to lose.
The spectacular effect of the rainbow bridge was completely beyond the understanding of ordinary people.
Fear of the unknown had always been one of the root causes of chaos.
The commissioner, who had recently been in danger of being dismissed, sensed this and decisively ordered all NYPD officers to cancel their leave.
Ordinary patrol officers worked as usual and weren't forced to work overtime.
As a military department directly under HQ, the Detective Bureau had to set an example and take turns to deal with possible riots.
In any case, the Detective Bureau didn't have the rule of punching in, so there was naturally no such thing as overtime.
Luke and Selina wanted to be special when everyone was working overtime, so they simply went out after dinner.
