Marvel Administrative Officer

Chapter 7 My Cousin Daredevil

After traveling to the Marvel world, Jack found that he was actually a member of the billionaire Murdoch family. He was very pleasantly surprised.

In America, money is everything.

Although he can't get a metal armor to upgrade to Iron Man like Tony, but this identity still brings him too much convenience.

In addition to his background, Jack also had a surprising discovery when he learned about the genealogy of the Murdoch family. He actually had a distant cousin named Matthew Murdoch.

The first super-English movie that Jack watched in his previous life was "Daredevil", so he was very familiar with the name. After checking the personal experience of Matthew Murdoch on the information, Jack confirmed that Matthew It's Daredevil.

Compared with the supermen in the Avengers, Daredevil is less well-known and has weak superpowers, but this person will be the leader of the street hero organization Defenders in the future!Supernatural Man, White Tiger, and Iron Fist are all his good buddies, and their status is equivalent to Captain America in the Avengers. Such a person is of inestimable value.

What's more, the two are still cousins. With this relationship, the famous Daredevil can't just ignore his cousin Jack in danger.

Getting to know Matthew means that Jack is buying an insurance policy for his own life.

Of course, it is impossible for Jack to visit Matthew in Hell's Kitchen. The place is really not safe. The so-called gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. Jack doesn't want to be killed by an inexplicable stray bullet, so Jack asked Matthew Meet at a Chinese restaurant in Manhattan.

After receiving a call from Jack, Matthew readily agreed to meet.

Since the death of his father, Jack Murdoch, he thought he had no family.

Yes, Matthew's father was also named Jack Murdoch.

What makes Americans really have no talent for naming names, they come and go like Jack, Jenny, and Jennifer.

Daredevil Matthew's father was a boxer who died in gang revenge.

Matthew studied hard and founded a law firm with his friend Fergie after graduating from the Law Department of Columbia University. However, after being repeatedly beaten by the society several times, he realized that the law cannot punish all criminals, so he dispatched at night, Fight to the death with the gangsters of Hell's Kitchen, nicknamed Daredevil.

Ah Fu Chinese Restaurant.

Two cousins ​​who are only slightly related by blood meet.

Jack looked at Daredevil wearing sunglasses, and couldn't help complaining about the genes of the Murdoch family, why his father was so handsome and his mother was so beautiful, but he was so ordinary.

Even this distant cousin in front of him is super handsome. No wonder Matthew is blind and can date so many girlfriends.

"Hello, Matthew, it's too abrupt to ask you to meet in a hurry." Jack asked again deliberately: "Your eyes?"

"There were some accidents when I was a child, and I was contaminated by radioactive materials, so I went blind."

Matthew didn't care about this, he asked cautiously: "Are you really my cousin?"

"Yes, it's amazing. I also saw your name in the funding list of the family foundation, and that's when I realized that I have such an excellent distant cousin like you."

"Family foundation? Then I understand!"

"What?" Jack asked suspiciously.

"After my father passed away, a mysterious foundation funded my studies. I am blind. There are not many people who are willing to support me, but why do they want to be anonymous?" Matthew had a puzzled expression on his face. "Since my father died, I thought I had no relatives."

Jack shrugged and realized that Matthew couldn't see him, so he said, "I don't know about this either, maybe it's the grievances of the previous generation."

Matthew is also a free and easy person. He has no bad impression of the Murdoch family. Although the other party is a bit sneaky, he can be considered as his benefactor if he can fund himself to finish college. "You said on the phone that you are now working in the New York City Hall , Did you encounter any difficulties?" Matthew asked.

As one of the heirs of the Murdoch family, it is very deviant behavior in the United States to work in the city hall.

The class in the United States is severely solidified, and most of the common people choose doctors, lawyers and other professions to succeed. Matthew himself is a lawyer.

Most of the civil servants in the United States are of black or civilian origin. Because of political correctness and other reasons, it is easier for blacks to work in the government.

Jack didn't expect that Matthew would take the initiative to ask. He was still thinking about how to bring the topic to himself, "I offended the Plastics Association and was deprived of my job as a press officer, so I was free. I thought you were in New York, so I made an appointment. You meet."

Jack didn't tell his real purpose. Matthew's apparent identity is just a down-and-out lawyer, and he can't help him for the time being. His current goal is to get acquainted with Matthew so that he can ask for help in the future.

Matthew himself is a lone star, and he was very happy when he first heard that he had an extra cousin. Jack didn't ask for anything from him. This meeting was very successful, at least the atmosphere was very warm.

The two left each other's home addresses again, and then reluctantly said goodbye.

Saying goodbye to Matthew, Jack returned to his residence in Brooklyn.

The news of the Brooklyn fire was constantly being reported on the TV. As the death toll continued to rise, more and more petitioners were petitioning on the city government network.

But more dissatisfaction is still focused on the inaction of the fire department.

Although the fire was caused by mutants, the number of casualties made the public doubt the capabilities of the fire department.

But then a video was inserted on the TV, which was taken by the residents of the apartment across the street when the fire broke out in the house. In the video, a small figure can be vaguely seen shooting flames from his hands, burning the room.

Jack frowned, it seemed that the mutants were doomed this time.

The so-called pictures have the truth, and the fire department originally shared some of the firepower for them. Once this video is released, the pressure of public opinion will all be concentrated on the mutant group.

First of all, the fire department must take the blame, and secondly, there must be some caring people to guide public opinion and blame all the responsibilities on the mutant group. In addition, the media must look back at the past incidents of mutants going out of control. The senses will definitely become extremely poor.

Eventually those unscrupulous politicians will jump out and say something grandiose on behalf of the incited people.

Don't ask why Jack is so sure, he is a top student who graduated from Yale University's journalism department, and he is too familiar with this set.

It's just that he still doesn't know what kind of role he needs to play in this. Now that he knows the development of the plot, if he doesn't play a role in it, what's the point of time travel?
Of course, for Jack, who is very afraid of death, he must first ensure his own safety. On the side of the X-Men, he still needs to take a little risk.

Jack had to plan his next move carefully.
