JESSICA gulped down a large mouthful of vodka and panted a few times before saying, "He's a pervert. He likes to play with young female students, especially those who are good at sports and have a cheerful temperament."
Luke simply nodded and didn't rush her.
She gulped down another mouthful of alcohol and burped. "When he controls someone, he has to explain it verbally, and it can't be too far away. But after being controlled by him for a long time, they'll become like Molly. Even if they're far away from him, they'll still do what he says. "
Luke was still silent.
He had already deduced this from Haley's information and his own understanding of the situation. At most, he wasn't 100% sure.
But given his cautiousness, he wouldn't give Kilgrave a chance to get close and control him.
Thus, Jessica's information was just icing on the cake.
Jessica gulped down another mouthful of alcohol. "When you're under his control, you're clear-headed. You know what you're doing, but you'll listen to him without any resistance and do all the bad things you don't actually want to do. Even if he tells you to kill someone, you'll do it … "
At that point, she lowered her head and covered her face with her hands.
Luke didn't say anything.
With his sharp ears, he could naturally hear the slight sobs in her nose and throat, but they were all blocked by her hands and were muffled.
After a moment, he sighed and reached out to pat her shoulder. In a gentle voice, he said, "Jessica, look at me."
JESSICA subconsciously raised her head and met his icy blue eyes.
"It's over, it's all over. Kilgrave will eventually disappear from your world. He's just a black spot in your life, "Luke continued.
At that moment, his voice was gentle.
JESSICA felt that the pair of beautiful icy blue eyes seemed to be emitting a faint light, captivating her soul.
But the fear Kilgrave instilled in her was too deep. She subconsciously shook her head. "No, he's still alive. He's back for me. Molly was the message he sent me. He deliberately got Molly to pull out a gun and kill someone in front of me so that I'd obediently return to his side. "
Luke put his hands on her shoulders. "But I'll catch him and send him to where he needs to go. No matter how strong he is, he can't dodge a bullet fired from dozens of meters away. He's not as strong as you think he is, understand? Jessica, don't be controlled by the fear in your heart. Learn to face it, defeat it, and finally step on it. "
JESSICA gradually calmed down as he spoke.
After being stunned for a moment, she suddenly stretched out her hands and grabbed the front of his shirt. She moved her head closer.
Looking at the rapidly approaching mouth, Luke was horrified and decisively turned his head to the side.
His extremely adept close-quarters combat skills played a major role, allowing him to dodge the 'surprise attack'. Then, he pressed down on her shoulders from behind. "Jessica, have a good sleep. You still have to go to work tomorrow."
JESSICA shook her head in frustration. "No, I don't want to go to work tomorrow!"
Luke was lost for words. You really do mean it! Then what's the point of opening this lousy firm?
He had no choice but to stop talking about work, and simply spoke in a gentle voice to soothe jESSICA's emotions. Ten minutes later, the drunk and half-hypnotized alcoholic finally fell asleep.
After that, he wiped the nonexistent cold sweat off his forehead and murmured, "Sis, shouldn't you brush your teeth first if you want to kiss me passionately? I really can't bring myself to kiss you when your mouth reeks of alcohol. "
For a normal man, a woman who smelled of alcohol and kept hiccuping would be discounted, no matter how beautiful she was.
How much of a discount would depend on whether it was just the smell of alcohol or if she had vomited it out.
For Luke, who had a slight obsession with cleanliness and OCD, no matter how beautiful jESSICA was, he chose to give his mouth a break. He couldn't let it endure such torture!
Putting the woman who reeked of alcohol down on the sofa, Luke pulled the thin blanket over her, and walked to the door.
When he left, he pulled the door open and was about to leave, but the door behind him stubbornly opened a crack.
After taking two steps, he couldn't help but turn his head and stare at the door.
Frowning and pondering for a moment, Luke sighed. "This damn OCD! Forget it, I'll just treat it as payment for the information. "
As he spoke, he busied himself at the door.
Twenty minutes later, looking at the brand-new door, he nodded in satisfaction. "This is much safer. I'm really a good person."
Hanging a bunch of keys on the handle inside the door, he sent a message to jESSICA with his office phone, before he turned around and left.
Behind him, there was only a brand-new door shining.
Shuttling through the dark alleys nearby, he quickly found an empty building, took out a mat from his inventory, and began to put on V's equipment.
Only after being interrupted by jESSICA's call just now did he remember that it was the law to work five days a week.
How could a law-abiding citizen like him deprive Selina of her rest days?
So, he gave Selina the day off tonight.
Luke? In his previous life, he was Chinese. If he counted the time he spent writing part-time, he had spent many years working 7-11-7 (7 in the morning to 11 in the evening, seven days a week).
It wasn't a problem for him to work 22-7 now. In any case, he was in great shape and could afford to work.
Thinking about the expression on a certain detective's face when she woke up tomorrow and saw the "gift," Luke inexplicably felt happy again. Helping others was always a source of happiness.
Looking at the time, it was only 8: 50. He took out a large piece of chocolate and stuffed it into his mouth to replenish the calories he had used up just now.
She wasn't in a hurry today, and she was still thinking about the female detective and the cleanup operation later. Luke put on his equipment more slowly than usual.
If he did something ruthless tonight, Kingpin would probably have some reaction, right?
For Kingpin, losing a few gang nests was nothing.
However, the targets that Luke and Selina had been targeting in the past few days were people who held key links in the drug sales process, including the "general agent" of an area, the "drug warehouse," and the "treasury."
As these places were destroyed, the general agents who led the business, the warehouse managers who managed the data of the drugs in and out of the warehouses, as well as the gang's private accountants, were all either dead or disabled.
If a large organization lost a leader who could adjust the division of labor in time, the warehouse couldn't be stocked, and the accountant who calculated the payments was lying in the hospital, the business couldn't continue.
In such a chaotic situation, continuing to do business would only allow the gang members to fish in troubled waters and line their own pockets.
To adjust this situation, a new leader was needed to calm the people down.
