The twelve spells at the beginning, I beat the people of the motherland violently

Chapter 18 The truth about the shooting and the four religious cults

When Colin and others returned to Frankie's residence, Butcher, who was sitting in the car, had been waiting in the car for a while.

"I thought only transparent people died." Butcher greeted the three French people who got off the car. "Unexpectedly, the locomotive also died..."

"All I can say is, well done!"

"Shit!" French cursed, "Butcher, this shit is over, don't even think about asking me to do anything for you anymore."

Butcher didn't take it seriously: "Frankie, we are friends."

After saying that, he looked at Huey who was in a daze: "Your revenge has been avenged. You should be happy instead of looking so worried like now."

Huey forced a smile: "Butcher, a day or two ago, I was just an ordinary employee in the video store, but today, I participated in the killing of two superheroes..."

Butcher raised his hand and said, "Be strong Huey, you are a man and you shouldn't be as sentimental as a sissy."

Huey was speechless: "Butcher, it was Transparent and Locomotive of the Super Seven that were killed... Locomotive appeared on a TV show a few days ago..."

"Huey..." Butcher interrupted, "They are already dead. There is no point in talking about it anymore. Besides, isn't the death of the locomotive what you want?"

"No..." Huey glanced at Colin who got off the car carefully, "I want the locomotive to pay the price, let the public know the truth, and let the law punish him, instead of like this... not like this..."

Colin said calmly: "There is no law before the interests represented by Watt Company and the force represented by the Super Seven."

"The Motherland can destroy any city and kill everyone in it. They can also destroy the Pentagon and kill the president if they provoke him."

"For the life and death of a mere ordinary person, do you think anyone would judge the people of the motherland and the Super Seven?"

Huey lowered his head and said nothing.

He probably understood this truth after hitting the wall many times, but the values ​​he had cultivated over the years collapsed, making him unable to fully accept the cruel facts before him.

Butcher motioned to French's house: "Huey, you rest here for a few hours at French, and I will come back to you."

Huey glanced at Frankie in front of him and followed him into the house.

"Is the investigation clear?"

Colin got into the passenger seat of Butcher's car.

The deaths of the Transparent Man and the Deep Sea were far less shocking to him than to Frankie and Huey.

Only three superheroes have died, and there are still four left. Including the researchers who are still alive and the shooter he is chasing, there are many, many more people he wants to kill.

After getting used to seeing blood, only revenge killings can make him feel the long-lost passion and excitement.

But after killing people, those passions disappeared like ripples on the water, and only indifference remained in his heart.

"You acted too quickly. You killed Transparent Man and Deep Sea within three hours of leaving... Fortunately, I was fast enough and got the information you wanted."

Butcher smiled slightly, glanced at Colin from the corner of his eye, and became even more wary of Colin.

Kill people casually, and the person you kill is a superhero, and you can immediately adjust your emotions as if nothing happened.

In sharp contrast to Huey, he has a better mentality than Frankie, a killer who has killed countless people, especially in line with the "perverted murderer" described by Walt Company.

Colin looked at Butcher and motioned for Butcher to continue.

Butcher started the car and drove onto the road before saying: "On the third day after the shooting, the murderer was caught."

"This man's name is Christian Nielsen. He is a drug addict. He has committed many crimes and has been involved in powder selling, gangs, and money laundering."

"Before the shooting, he was involved in a rape and murder case, but was acquitted by the court due to insufficient evidence."

Colin's breathing began to quicken: "Now, he is in prison?"

"No." Butcher put one hand out of the window and grabbed the steering wheel with the other. "He was caught by the police three days after the shooting."

"According to police records, he did not run away at the time. After the shooting, he hid in his secret residence to rest and did not leave for three days."

"When the police found him, they found that he had not eaten or drank for three days and was on the verge of collapse."

"After he was sent to the hospital and rescued, he went crazy. He couldn't even speak clearly and had no way to have a normal conversation."

"After professional doctor's appraisal, he was diagnosed with some kind of mental illness. Instead of pretending to be crazy, we could only send him to a mental hospital for treatment."

"Whether he can recover or not, his current rationality can no longer control his behavior, so no matter what he has done before, he will not suffer any punishment."

Colin took a deep breath and showed a nervous smile on his face: "So, I, who was shot and survived by luck, and several of my dead friends... can only blame myself for my bad fate?"

"That's the theory, but the weird thing is..." Butcher retracted his hand from the window and glanced at Colin, "The weird thing is, this matter was taken over by the CIA."

"If it's as simple as what I just said... Oh, please don't mind. I'm not saying that you and your friends who were shot that day are cheap, but here..."

Butcher pointed to the front casually: "I don't know how many shootings occur every day, and people are killed by firearms every day. Although the shooting six months ago was tragic, when viewed in the context of the entire situation, it was just one incident. Something with very simple logic.”

Colin didn't pay attention: "Mr. Butcher, please speak."

Butcher continued: "If things were as simple as they appeared, there would be no reason for the CIA to get involved."

"But only three days after Nielsen's arrest, the CIA intervened in the investigation. The subsequent investigation and evidence collection, as well as everything related to Nielsen's psychiatric evaluation, were all handled by the CIA."

"Does Mr. Butcher know why the CIA got involved?" Colin asked.

"I don't know the investigation process. It is a confidential document of the CIA. I am not qualified to view it." Butcher said honestly, "But I know that as long as we find Nielsen, we can know part of the truth."

Colin took a deep breath and suppressed the violent emotions rising in his heart: "Nelson is under the custody of the CIA?"

"After he was sent for treatment, he has been under the custody of the CIA. It can be guessed that his involvement is not small. Mr. Colin should be prepared." Butcher said meaningfully, "Mr. Colin killed the superhero of Vought Company. Although the destruction of the Watt Corporation headquarters caused a great impact, it is also an impact that many people want to see."

"But once Mr. Colin comes to the CIA and goes against the federal government, things will become very troublesome, because Mr. Colin will become a real terrorist."

"The federal government...terrorists..." Colin chuckled, "They are afraid of the people of the motherland, but they are not afraid of me?"

Butcher had no comment.

He suddenly pulled out a piece of paper from the front desk of the car and handed it to Colin.

"If you don't mind, could you answer a few of the questions written down above?"

Colin took the paper and glanced at it. There were ten questions, all about the chaos that occurred in Walter Company yesterday and the death of Deep Sea.

Butcher added: "Mr Colin can refuse to answer if there is something he doesn't want to say."

Colin shook his head: "The headquarters of Watt Company all know this. It's not a secret."

Butcher handed the phone to Colin: "No need to write by hand, just record with the phone."

“Let me just say one more thing, this is the price I have to pay to get some of Nielsen’s files.”

Colin knew that Butcher probably exchanged information with people from the CIA.

He didn't care. Instead, he made a rare joke: "I killed one more superhero, but Mr. Butcher made me pay extra for the deal that should have been completed... It seems that he took advantage."

"No, no, no..." Butcher smiled, "Mr. Colin is an Asian and knows what favors are. When I make a deal, I give my favors, so both of us have to pay and gain."
