Chapter 36 The Kidnapping Case

"Since about half a year ago, the big boss has started a series of kidnapping cases." After some grooming, Banner was obviously more energetic than when he just returned to the building. He began to explain a series of case materials in the virtual projection .

"The victims are all young people between the ages of 15 and 18." Banner listed the information of the four victims separately, "The victims come from families of different classes, there is no ransom demand, no threat, and no revenge possible."

"The length of time the victim was held in captivity is irregular, from the shortest one week to the longest three months, and because the kidnapping cases were carried out very quickly and efficiently, it is difficult for us to determine whether the big boss really committed these four crimes." Banner continued to explain.

"The chief will not do anything for no reason. If he does something, then there must be a reason for him." The captain looked at the information with a frown.

"Yes." Zhao stood up and pulled up another document. "After Banner and I investigated, we initially found the commonality of all the victims."

He paused, pointing to the projected information: "They are all smart."

"Well, at least for their age group, they are very smart." Zhao thought for a while and added.

"So, the big boss is arresting and killing all the smart young people?" The captain felt very strange, "What's the point of doing this?"

"I don't think the big boss is simply looking for or killing those smart and talented young people." Banner replied, "If he just wants to vent his desire to kill, he has no need to keep these captives, or even kill them." For as long as three months, of course, I don't think the big boss will act just because of the desire to kill."

"Unfortunately, it was too late when we realized that the big boss was behind all these cases. I didn't officially intervene in the investigation until a week ago. Locate the secret base of the big boss and organize a rescue plan." Banner looked sad.

"It's not your fault, Banner." The captain stepped forward and patted his old friend on the shoulder, "You have tried your best."

Banner shook his head: "Let's not talk about that, now, we can't hope that the big boss has achieved his goal and will take the initiative to stop, he will continue to carry out his kidnapping plan with a high probability, and now we must do it as soon as possible Find him, stop him, and avoid another victim."

"Actually, during this period of time, I have always had a new idea." Zhao stood up, "Inspired by the previous incident, I was wondering if the big boss is picking someone who he thinks is smart enough to help him accomplish something matter?"

"Tell me." Banner's eyes lit up, "This is a very interesting idea."

"Everyone knows that in the recent incident, I sought some off-site help." Zhao Huan looked at the Avengers present, "This makes me think, what if the big boss is also facing the same predicament as I was then?"

Zhao pointed to the victim's profile: "He deliberately selected those who seemed to be smarter than ordinary people as targets, kidnapped them, and then hoped that these people could help him solve certain problems."

"And those who are more likely to help him will live longer." Banner answered naturally, "and this can easily explain why different people are kidnapped and imprisoned for different lengths of time."

"The more valuable the person, the longer they will live..." The captain also understood, but then he was very puzzled, "However, with the intelligence of the big leader, how could these people help him? The help Zhao sought, Is it because that person has an ability that is not weaker than Zhao, so this can help?"

"So these kidnapped people are all dead..." Banner said dully.

Immediately afterwards, he and Zhao looked at each other.

"That makes sense!" The two said in unison.

"The big boss is looking for someone who can help him intellectually, so he screened and kidnapped all possible targets, and then assessed them, and the loser would be executed directly..."

"Then... what will happen if it succeeds?" Jennifer, the She-Hulk who had been silently listening, finally couldn't help asking.

"I hope that I will never know what it will be like if a terrorist plan that makes the big bosses ask for help is successful..." Zhao was obviously a little terrified.

"Then we have a direction for our investigation." Banner continued, "Next, let's go to S.H.I.E.L.D. and ask Fury to immediately screen out all the suspected high-intelligence victims from all the recent disappearances and kidnapping cases." case, so maybe we can sort out a complete timeline, and then maybe we can figure out what the Big Boss wants these people to do."

"It's not us." The captain shook his head and patted Banner on the shoulder, then looked at Banner in doubt, and said, "Banner, you pushed yourself too hard. Although the situation is urgent now, you need to rest After a while, go home, adjust your mental state, and rest with Betty for two days before coming back."

"No need." Banner didn't care, "I've experienced things far worse than this, and I'm still far from my limit."

"This is the crux of the problem." The captain shook his head, "We don't need you to push yourself to the limit yet. In war, the soldier's limit should be triggered at the right time, instead of pushing himself to the limit casually. "

"Well, you have the final say." Banner sighed, then he glanced at Zhao and said, "But, if there is any new discovery or case, please notify me immediately."

……

Although the two would research papers together in the school library almost every day, it was indeed the first time for Colt to make an appointment to go to the library alone on weekends.

Like most people on a first date, he was high, but a little nervous.

"It's nothing, it's just the same as usual, the two of you read papers together, exchange academic issues, don't think too much." Repeating in his heart, he finally made up his mind and walked out of the house.

"Mom, I'm going out for a while, and I have an appointment with my classmates to go to the library." He yelled at his mother who was reading e-books in the living room, and after receiving an affirmative answer, Colt walked out of the house.

Not an adult to buy a car, Colt had no choice but to take a bus to the library at his destination.

At the corner of an intersection on his way to the station, he saw a strange tall, bald man.

Perhaps because the other party was too strong and tall, Colt looked at the other party curiously, but he seemed to feel a little impolite, so he quickly retracted his gaze, and then quickened his pace to rush to the station.

At this moment, the man suddenly grabbed him into his arms. Colt was shocked and tried to struggle, but the man's arms were as strong as concrete walls.

No, it's not like, this man's body has changed from ordinary flesh to real cement!
