The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 20

"Hey, Brock!" He Nan parked his car on the side of the road, and waved to Eddie Brock, who was standing in front of the restaurant and looking at the door in a daze: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"Ah... He Nan and Shirley." Eddie was stunned for a moment before turning his head with a tired expression: "I just arrived too."

Originally, they wanted to go in and chat while having breakfast, but the restaurant hadn't opened yet.

So they stood outside and had a discussion.Eddie Brock also took out his tablet computer and showed them the clues he had sorted out about Syndicate Industries and Rostar Freight, and told them about the various difficulties he had encountered when investigating the case.

Why were these two companies targeted by Eddie Brock at the time?
Syndicated industries because of the private manufacture of high-tech industrial materials without permission.These materials are suspected of being used on the battle droids of the Furman gang controlled by Sley Furman.

In He Nan's impression, Sley Furman was quite obsessed with these killing machines, which led to the Furman Gang being the one with the highest utilization rate of combat robots among the old New York gangs.

Even after Sly Furman was beaten into a disability by Spider-Man, he even transformed his whole body into a biochemical robot.

Eddie Brock's exposure of the syndicate industry has had little effect.It was true that many people paid attention to it at the beginning, but this matter was quickly suppressed.

The New York police only punished the syndicate industry with a fine, and publicly declared that the syndicate industry had nothing to do with the gang, and hoped that everyone would not believe in rumors.

In fact, everyone knows that they are talking nonsense, but there is nothing they can do.

As for Eddie Brock himself, not only was he warned by the police not to wrong innocent companies, but he also received a letter from a lawyer from the syndicate industry and anonymous death threats.

Fortunately, it seems that someone secretly protected him, or the reputation of this brave reporter is too great, and the attack proves that you are guilty. In short, he did not die in the street inexplicably, nor was he "suicided" suddenly.

In contrast, the legal problems are relatively large.

The syndicate industry actually sued Eddie Brock for violating the company's reputation, and they were going to send him in for a year in prison and pay $[-] in compensation.

And New York courts were happy to back their case.

The judge in charge of this case was specially arranged for Sley Furman's old acquaintance.

Fearing the revenge of gangsters, few lawyers dared to take Eddie Brock's case. After all, the loyal Furman family was the most trusted by New York's criminal emperor King, and the risk of offending them was too high.

Fortunately, the reporter finally saved the day.

Thanks to a well-known and powerful barrister who settled his case by various means, the syndicate industry was forced to withdraw the lawsuit.

This man is Matthew Murdoch - people usually call him Matt.

He Nan was not surprised at all when he heard this name.

After all, this is Daredevil.

Matt is the rare lawyer who never takes a bad guy case.Jealousy like hatred.

He lends a helping hand every time a hero he approves is persecuted by lawbreakers who manipulate the law.

Therefore, even though he belongs to the Defenders of Hell's Kitchen and is not a member of the Avengers, he is still often responsible for dealing with the alleged crimes of the Avengers.

So in He Nan's view, Eddie Brock's ability to escape unscathed in that incident was probably due to the Avengers secretly exerting pressure.

Mr. Stark is very good at this.

He is not a gangster, but his influence is not lost to anyone.Everyone must show some face.

As for Rostar Freight, it is also involved in the gang.

It doesn't belong to any gang, but it serves almost every gang.

The content exposed by Eddie Brock is naturally a series of facts about its international human trafficking.

The evidence he submitted was more than that of the syndicate industry.

They even secretly liberated a whole container of children and took a video of the whole process.

It stands to reason that this is solid evidence, enough to set off a huge wave.

But people's anger didn't last long, and they lost their voices after repeated "rumor rebuttals" and cold treatment.In the end, the case was also forgotten.

The local police explained that those children were kidnapped by other unknown criminal groups, and the criminals would definitely be found.

In addition, the city government also awarded a trophy to Eddie Brock for his heroic performance, praising him as a hero who rescued the child from the clutches of the devil.

Bullock was so angry at this behavior of talking nonsense with his eyes open, that he almost threw the trophy on the ground at the press conference.But thinking of the dangerous situation of being bitten back by the syndicate industry before, he still endured it and remained silent.

Later, the police actually found some surrogates and killed them all, claiming that these human traffickers violently resisted arrest, and our heroic police officers had no choice but to shoot them dead, which is really regrettable.

...and that's how it went.

Eddie Brock's efforts were all in vain.

Not even a hair on Rothal Freight was hurt.

"I want to know where your gold trophy went." Shirley also seemed unhappy after hearing this, but her focus was obviously a little strange: "Did it smash it?"

"...It's still at home." Eddie Brock said through gritted teeth, "It's a shame to see it..."

"Is it still at home because I want it to remind me to persist in fighting against the evil forces?" He Nan tried to do a reading comprehension, admiring the reporter.

"No." Mr. Bullock was suddenly a little embarrassed: "Well... After all, it is pure gold... I just thought, I can melt it down and sell it when I run out of money."

is that so? !
The reason is too real!
He Nan suddenly felt dull.

But on second thought, I think this is quite normal.

Good gold, can't it be lost?

"Brock, I suggest you go back and check the trophy." Miyano Shiho put his hands in his pockets again, holding the pistol in his right hand, staring out of the corner of his eyes at the strong man who was obviously high on drugs and high. Han: "The bottom of the trophy, try to see if you can remove it."

"Huh? Why check this?" Eddie Brock didn't understand at all.

"Because there may be a bug in it." Understanding Shirley's meaning, He Nan dug out a small black particle from his pocket and showed it to Bullock: "This thing may be stuck in the trophy. Of course, the shape may be more difficult to recognize some."

"I... I'll go back and check." Eddie Brock felt horrified when he heard this: "Why would someone eavesdrop on me? Just to find out what I want to investigate next?"

"I think I want to find some excuses to threaten them the next time you provoke them." Shirley said quietly with a blank face, "It's the usual trick of the gangsters. Make the threatened person realize that they are also at home." After they are under surveillance, that person will become surprisingly easy to control... Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

The burly man, delirious from drug addiction, staggered closer to Shirley.

The corner of her mouth was drooling, her eyeballs were bulging, and she was staring straight ahead... There was still a smile on her face that was crazy, greedy, and captured by desire.

　Thanks to "Torris" for the reward of 100 starting coins!
