Kastley's arrival didn't bring much change to New York.
As a classic example of a lonely old man, the old man didn't have high requirements for a quality of life.
He didn't even have a TV in the cemetery chapel on the outskirts of Houston. The most modern thing he had was an old radio.
This time, Luke had installed a smart TV with a satellite receiver. He could operate it as long as he gave a verbal command. It even had a radio mode, which only had sound and no pictures.
As long as the old man was willing, he could understand most of the news in the world.
The old man didn't comment on this arrangement, but since he didn't refuse, it meant that he agreed. Luke knew that very well.
After Luke, who was disguised as a real estate agent, left, the old man didn't enter the chapel. Instead, he sat down on a big rock next to the chapel and looked at the ocean not far away.
This beach wasn't as desolate as the Texas wilderness, but it was equally vast.
For a moment, Kastley's thoughts were complicated as he recalled countless memories that had once faded.
After a long time, he couldn't help but smile. "So, I wanted to be a fisherman back then? Hehe. "
…
That day, Luke got off work at two in the afternoon on time and was making dinner in the kitchen.
Suddenly, Gold Nugget, who was crouching at the kitchen door, said, "Boss, something happened to Claire."
Luke's eyes narrowed, and he immediately put down what he was doing. "Danger? Trouble? "
Now, this fellow used all kinds of whining, woof, woof, woof, and whining to express himself very smoothly.
Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't have taken the initiative to speak.
"It shouldn't be … dangerous, but there might be trouble. A group of well-trained armed men are arresting a passerby fan of hers. Claire wanted to stop them, but I stopped her for the time being. "Gold Nugget spoke very quickly, and finished in less than three seconds.
Luke nodded and called Claire's phone. At the same time, he turned on the camera on her phone.
Two seconds later, Claire picked up the phone, panting a little. "Luke, I'm very busy."
Luke hummed in response and looked at the image that Little Snail projected in front of him. "What are you busy with?"
Claire hesitated for a moment. Gold Nugget didn't need Luke's instructions at all, and was already giving her advice.
Claire said, "Someone wants to kidnap … Hey, who are you? Stop. "The second half of the sentence was obviously to reprimand someone.
Luke narrowed his eyes and gestured at Gold Nugget.
Gold Nugget carried out the order decisively, and Gold Nugget Two, who was far away in Los Angeles, immediately fled with Claire.
The two men in black combat suits who were surrounding her were stunned. They saw the girl, who seemed determined to fight them to the end, turn around and run in a weird posture. Several seconds later, she ran into an alley near USC.
The two men in black suits could not help but look at each other. They had no idea what was going on. Would the girl really not run into a wall when she turned her head and ran forward?
However, the situation quickly changed. A voice rang out in their earphones, and they immediately gave up on delving deeper into the problem. They turned around and aimed their guns at the two girls on the other side.
On Luke's side, he looked at the phone that Gold Nugget had Claire sneak out from a corner upstairs, and frowned. Why were Lorna and Carol in Los Angeles, and why did they run into Claire?
He pulled up the AI program Butterfly (exclusive to the 3 + 2 superpower combination)'s notes on the girls' itinerary. It said, "Heading to Los Angeles for a party! NK's fan meeting. "
Luke was speechless. What the hell are fans?
At the same time, he sent a message to Carol's phone.
Then, Carol's expression changed on the screen, and she ran off with Lorna, who had a wary expression on her face.
She was very agile, and quickly ran behind a car on the side of the road to block the two men in black combat suits.
Lorna wasn't slow to react. Seeing that Carol had gestured for her to retreat, she immediately did as she was told.
In the previous months of safety training, Carol's grades were better than hers, and her on-the-spot judgment was more accurate, so Lorna subconsciously obeyed her.
This time, it was the two men in black combat suits who were at a loss.
Shoot them. Their target today wasn't the two girls who had broken in by accident.
If they didn't shoot them, the two girls who seemed to have superpowers would run away again.
One of them reported the situation in a low voice. He had only said a few words when gunshots rang out on the street not far away behind them.
Their expressions changed. Ignoring the two girls who had been left behind, they turned around and ran back with their guns.
Watching the video, Luke kept giving orders to Butterfly to command Carol and Lorna to leave the scene quickly.
But a moment later, his expression turned ugly.
That was because the gunshots were quickly closing in on Carol and Lorna. At the same time, two helicopters were quickly approaching from the distance, and their bright searchlights were turned on.
What the hell was going on? Cursing inwardly, Luke could only have Carol and Lorna hide in an apartment building on the side.
The two women quickly found an empty room. Lorna opened the door with her magnetic control and hid inside.
On the other side, Claire quickly hid herself under Gold Nugget's command. She watched as the men in black combat suits chased after a man and a woman, and recorded everything clearly with the camera on her phone.
Luke's eyes widened. "WTF?!"
The man and woman being chased by the men in black combat suits turned out to be two familiar faces – Wade and Vanessa.
Wade had even put on an Iron Man mask for his face. Vanessa's face was covered by glasses and a baseball cap, but Luke recognized her at a glance.
Why were they in Los Angeles as well?
This question was immediately answered by the smart program Victoria (exclusive to the V uniform): Vanessa and Wade had just finished attending a party! NK's fan meet-and-greet.
Luke: (* ̄ ̄ ̄) Can you guys be so unreliable? You're already decades old, and you're not embarrassed to chase after a little girl?
Compared with Carol and Lorna, who had escaped easily, Wade and Vanessa were in much more trouble.
From the actions of the thirty or so men in black combat suits in the video, it could be seen that they were here for the couple, or simply for Wade.
Luke wasn't too nervous at that moment.
Wade wasn't like Carol and Lorna, who had killed at least a hundred people. Also, he had been on the battlefield, was experienced, and wasn't afraid of death.
If he hadn't spent most of his energy protecting Vanessa, the thirty or so men in black combat suits would've died twice already.
But looking at the situation on the field, Luke also had a bad feeling.
Wade was crazy about Vanessa, and had already taken a dozen bullets for her.
But his actions had also been noticed by the men in black combat suits, and some of their firepower had been used to lock down Vanessa, so that Wade couldn't get away.
Luke quickly calculated in his heart. Finally, he called Wade, but … nobody picked up.
(It's a family gathering. The third update isn't out yet. I'll make it up tomorrow. Sorry.)
