A few days passed, and everything went smoothly on Luke's side.
After the black cat No. 1 was repaired, Selina suddenly remembered the "Robocop" skin that Luke had used at the beginning, and begged him to make a female version.
Of course, it had to be clearly different from the Chitauri's mechanical body.
It was entirely black, and there was a black lens on the curved half-helmet. It had a curved waist and a three-edged claw blade in both hands. It was in the black catgirl's usual style.
On the clearly feminine chest plate, there was a huge black mirror bat logo, which further confirmed its identity.
Luke had suggested using an abstract black cat head, but Selina had directly rejected it.
In her words, the cat head logo wasn't oppressive, but the bat logo definitely was.
Luke couldn't deny that.
In any case, this remote-controlled mechanical body was just equipment, and didn't need the protection of the human body like armor.
The materials for an experimental model were only around three million, which was much cheaper than armor.
Simply changing the appearance wasn't troublesome or wasteful.
With this new toy, Selina started to get busy again at night. The experience and credit points that had almost stopped sharing with her teammates flowed into the system again.
In the next few days, the level-one clone in Mexico was still making preparations, while the level-two clone in San Francisco was investigating Dr. Pim's whereabouts during the day and raiding the drug dealers' inventory at night.
Although Dr. Pim was nowhere to be seen for the time being, he was doing a good job of farming points.
Only Phil's message wasn't a pleasant surprise.
Nick Fury agreed to cooperate, but the director said that they needed to discuss the specifics of the cooperation.
Phil was obviously very embarrassed, and the message he sent was specially apologizing for this.
Luke didn't mock him, and simply replied, "Sure."
Nick Fury expressed his willingness to cooperate, but pulled out the specifics of the cooperation as a way to stall for time.
This was a classic stalling tactic, which wasn't unusual for a bureaucratic system.
With a little wrangling, this excuse could give Nick Fury two to three months.
If the situation was good, Batman wouldn't interfere, and if the situation was bad, he could immediately ask for help. He could attack or retreat.
Thankfully, Luke was very busy now, and never counted on Nick Fury's integrity.
If he didn't have this ability, he wouldn't be a director at all!
This was Nick Fury's best performance. It was probably for Phil's sake, or his reply would be even more "bureaucratic."
…
After half a month of hard work, Luke finally found some traces of Dr. Hank Pym.
The old man secretly went to a supermarket to buy a lot of supplies, and was accidentally caught by a surveillance camera that Luke had set up.
But that was all Dr. Pim showed up before disappearing without a trace.
There were no surveillance cameras around the supermarket, and it happened to be next to the main road between the city and the suburbs. Who knew which way Dr. Pim went?
Luke simply used the medium-sized drone to search out the supermarket step by step.
Originally, he didn't have much hope in finding a needle in a haystack. The real opportunity was actually Dr. Pim's next shopping trip.
As long as he still chose this supermarket, it would be easy to find this old man.
The next day, Ah Fu sent him a suspicious message.
On the holographic screen, the two pictures were side by side.
On the left was an aerial picture of a woodland in the suburbs of San Francisco. There was a small building there.
There was no information on this small building in the various databases of San Francisco.
That wasn't unusual. Some people bought land and built their own houses first, so it was possible that it wasn't registered.
Ah Fu wasn't tired. When he found something suspicious, he started to look up the relevant information, and found the satellite picture on the right side of the screen.
The satellite picture had been taken five days ago, and the small building hadn't been in the woodland at the time.
Luke only took a few glances before he asked Ah Fu, "Have you sent the drones?"
Ah Fu said, "They arrived above the building five minutes ago."
Luke said, "Don't get too close. Just keep an eye on it. Don't use electronic detection methods. Just use optical observation. "
Dr. Pim was a very skilled individual.
At that moment, his clone was already heading toward the small building. Until he was sure that he had blocked off the other party, Luke didn't want to alert Mr. Pim.
Ten minutes later, the Everything Merchant, who was wearing a black suit and holding a cane, appeared outside the building and walked unhurriedly to the door.
Smiling at the surveillance camera, Luke said, "Is anyone home?"
After a long while, a voice came out of the loudspeaker on the door. "Who are you?"
Luke said, "You can call me Pennyworth. I'd like to discuss a business deal with you."
The loudspeaker immediately replied, "I don't do business with no business. Please leave."
Luke was still smiling. "You don't do business with Pim Technologies either?"
After a brief silence, the loudspeaker asked, "Who sent you?"
Luke said, "I only represent myself. It has nothing to do with anyone else."
The speaker was silent again for a while, and the door suddenly opened with a click. "I'll give you five minutes."
Luke stepped in.
…
Twenty minutes later, Luke walked out with a helpless expression and bowed slightly at the door. "I'm sorry, Dr. Pim. I wasn't considerate enough this time."
As he spoke, he took out a business card and flicked it into the door, which landed on a cabinet. "This is my contact number. If you need any help, I can help you for free once. Of course, it has to be within my capabilities. "
He then turned around and disappeared into the dark woods.
Inside the building, Dr. Pim scanned the business card with an instrument and didn't find anything wrong with it.
He didn't look too good. "What's the point of saying so much? If you can't do this, you can't do that. "
That being said, he didn't throw the business card away.
Pennyworth, who claimed to "sell everything", had something special about him.
He definitely wasn't an ordinary person to be able to find his building and appear within twenty meters of him without being discovered.
As for the fact that they couldn't make a deal, Dr. Pim wouldn't underestimate him.
Taking back Pim Technologies and destroying the files in Darren Klaus's hands could be done so easily. Was there a need for Dr. Pim to live in seclusion?
Darren also had some of the technology for Pim Particles. If he really got his hands on it, why bother looking for Darren Klaus?
The only thing Dr. Pim had more than Darren was the battle suit.
He didn't want to waste his time talking to the people who were eyeing the battle uniform.
After making sure that Pennyworth was gone, Dr. Pim quickly packed up and left the building.
He picked up the remote control on the key ring in his hand and pressed it. The building disappeared.
He picked up the five-centimeter-tall building from the ground and put it in his suitcase. He then took out a three-centimeter-long SUV from the suitcase and put it on the ground.
After retreating a few meters, he pressed another button on the remote control, and the off-road vehicle instantly enlarged into a normal-sized off-road vehicle.
After getting into the car, Dr. Pim stepped on the accelerator, and the engine rumbled. The off-road vehicle sped down the hill and left.
