However, a dark red figure didn't seem to hear him at all.
Like an ADHD patient, the guy was either covering his head with his hands or jumping around with his arms akimbo while cursing, "Damn it, damn it. Why? Why? I actually let that toilet cleaner spirit escape. God, you must be kidding me … "
Luke: "…"
The dark red figure, however, grabbed the hair of another unlucky guy and slapped him hard. "Tell me where that Jax is! Or I'll beat you to death! "
The unlucky guy's face was turned ninety degrees, and his head hung limply in front of his chest, unable to say anything.
Helpless, Luke reminded him as he stepped forward, "If you slap him a few more times, he'll either remain unconscious or die. Either way, he won't be able to hear your nonsense. "
The dark red figure hummed in acknowledgment and scratched his head. "That's right. I should've woken him up first. How do I wake up someone who's in a coma? Let me think, what did the book 'The 99 Cruelest Punishments in the History of the World' say? Find a stick and stand it up, then sit on it with your legs apart … "
Luke frowned. It had only been a few days since he last saw this guy. Why did he look even more like a psychopath?
Should he beat him up first? The thought flashed through his mind, but he suppressed it.
He was wearing a custom-made suit today that cost more than a hundred thousand dollars! It would be a waste if he wrinkled it trying to beat this psychopath up.
But … he still wanted to kill him!
Bang!
Luke kicked him, and the psychopath, who was still muttering to himself about how he was going to cut the unlucky guy into pieces, was sent flying.
…
Wade felt that he had been down on his luck recently.
He had just made five million dollars for the first time in his life, when he found out that he had cancer.
He took a gamble and accepted treatment from a medical institution, only to find out that they weren't treating him, but creating people with superpowers to sell.
When he found an opportunity to break free, the toilet cleaner spirit stabbed him in the lab with a stick, and turned him into a kebab in the fire that he had started.
Relying on the super healing power obtained from the experiment, he finally changed from a skewer back to his avocado form, but he didn't dare to see his actress again.
It took him more than a month to come up with a perfect plan, and he finally tracked down Jax, the toilet cleaner. However, he still let Jax get away at the last moment.
Now, he just wanted to be alone and slowly think about torture methods, but someone actually kicked his butt from behind.
He finally lost his temper.
Crawling up from the ground, he turned his head towards the direction of the ambusher and said, "Someone actually dared to ambush me? Do you know … who I am? "
When he said the last word, his voice suddenly became as soft as a mosquito.
A pair of dark sunglasses appeared on a cold and sinister face.
Wade seemed to feel a pair of small mung bean eyes staring at him behind the sunglasses, and he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
He subconsciously squeezed out a smile, although Luke couldn't see his ugly face at all. "Hi, Mr. Smith, hello. It's only been a few days since we last met. Boss, you're even more handsome, especially those sunglasses. Speaking of sunglasses, I actually think Hello Kitty's new summer sunglasses suit you better …"
Then, he stopped.
That was because Luke had taken off his sunglasses and put on a natural smile. "Oh, who are you now?"
Wade said, "Deadpool! That's my new name. "
Luke nodded. "Okay, Deadpool, it's time for us to go."
Wade asked, "Where to?"
Luke turned his head and looked at the southern sky. "If you don't leave now, you'll be forced to work for someone."
Wade said, "Work? Impossible. I'll never work for anyone in my life. "
Luke chuckled. "What about S.H.I.E.L.D.? As far as I know, they don't pay very well. If you work for them for a few decades, you'll be able to make five million. "
Wade asked, "… Are you driving?"
Luke couldn't be bothered to talk to him. He simply waved for him to follow, then turned around and left.
Two minutes later, a helicopter flew over the viaduct.
On the helicopter, a soldier in full combat gear looked down and asked with a frown, "Have you found any suspicious targets?"
Next to him, one of his subordinates operated a tablet and replied without raising his head, "Boss, we can't wait for them. It's too chaotic around here. There are ordinary people running around in fear. "
At that moment, the helicopter pilot asked, "Sir Flegg, should we keep circling?"
Flegg frowned and scanned the viaduct with his hawk-like eyes. A moment later, he ordered, "Have Little Bird 2 slow down and search from the south. Report to me immediately if it finds any targets. We'll head north along the highway for now. Set a range of two kilometers. "
Just as Flegg gave the order, the camera of a mini drone in the weeds on the ground was aimed at him.
Luke raised an eyebrow in surprise. "It's him?"
He had thought that it would be Phil this time. After all, there had been a lot of things going on in New York recently, and one of Phil's childhood idols was also here.
Phil was already a few decades old, yet he acted like a little fan who went to watch his idol when he had nothing better to do.
Luke couldn't bear to see him like that.
But this time, it was actually Flegg, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. That was a little strange.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly asked, "Do you know Rick Flegg?"
Wade's muffled voice came from a transparent, twisted shadow next to him. "Who is it? The name sounds familiar. Let me think. "
Luke said, "I think it's someone from the Advanced Joint Research Team, but he acts like a mercenary who does illegal work."
After a brief silence, Wade suddenly said, "I remember now. This guy came to me and wanted to hire me for a long time."
Luke asked, "Why didn't you go?"
Wade snorted. "What right does he have to hire me? I blackened his eyes on the spot. "
Luke said, "Tell me the truth."
Wade said, "… He paid me too little, and asked me to be on standby 24/7. I was watching Big Fish Girl at Tuoyi Hot Shop at the time. I had no time for him."
Luke asked, "He really didn't come to you after you beat him up?"
He didn't think that was possible.
For example, Luke himself had an official job as a detective, and could be considered someone with a backer.
Wade was just a mercenary in a gray area. It wouldn't be hard for someone from a secret agency like Flegg to deal with him.
Wade said, "… He dislocated my arm, and then he left."
Luke was stunned. "He beat you? Did he use some kind of superpower? "
In the few times he had met Flegg, he really hadn't noticed anything unusual about him.
But they had never been enemies, and he hadn't seen him since, so he didn't think much of it.
Wade was very depressed. "His subordinate didn't follow the rules. After I blackened his eyes, he pointed a gun at my sexy ass. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to protect my ass, so I could only stop, and he dislocated my arm. "
