Comic: Becoming a Phantom Thief to Steal Hearts

"That person... said that?" Lucas confirmed.

"Well, that inexplicable guy said that the universe is going to be destroyed or something." Peter complained, "Looks crazy."

"Well……"

Peter originally shared it with Lucas out of a joke-telling mentality, but seeing that Lucas' expression was still serious, the smile on Peter's face gradually faded.

He asked cautiously: "Is there something wrong with that guy?"

Lucas inevitably thought of what Eagle said in the Velvet Room. He said that Lucas was the one chosen to save the world from destruction. At first, Lucas scoffed at this, and the world was still It has been doing well, with no signs of being destroyed.

But as the cooperation and trust between Lucas and the Velvet Room deepened, he also began to have doubts about the topic.

And the mercenary named Deadpool was the first person to say this in the real world. Obviously, Deadpool still had some information that he didn't know.

"What else did he say?" Lucas asked.

Peter's face was a little embarrassed. When he thought of Deadpool, his mind was filled with those idiots' speeches, but...

"He calls me the me of this world, and also, he's leaving this universe soon," Peter said.

He was a little skeptical, "Lucas, do you think what this person said is true? But how is this possible?"

"There is a possibility," Lucas said, "that is parallel universes."

"But..." Peter scratched his head, "Isn't the parallel world still just a conjecture?"

"This is the only possibility now, isn't it?" Lucas sighed. He wanted to find Deadpool and talk to him, but he couldn't find anyone now.

"Ah, that's right." Peter recalled something again, "He seemed to have mentioned some bat madman or something."

Lucas was stunned and muttered: "Bat... madman?"

His pupils suddenly shrank, and certain images flashed through his mind.

Lucas couldn't see clearly what was going on, but the deep fear hidden in it made his pupils almost shrink into pinholes. He slid to the ground unconsciously, gasping for air.

"Lucas? Lucas!"

In his blur of consciousness, Lucas vaguely saw Peter's anxious face.

When he opened his eyes again, the familiar music of the velvet room was echoing in his ears, and a cold little hand was placed on his face.

Seeing Lucas wake up, Archipal snorted and retracted his hand.

"Well..." Lucas frowned and covered his head.

"Are you an idiot!" Archipal gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Didn't I say before, don't explore things you can't afford until you have insufficient strength!"

"What...are you talking about?" Lucas's eyes were still flashing with white light, and his mind was still fixed on the time when he was chatting with Peter about Deadpool.

"Why did you call me here all of a sudden?" Lucas looked up at the empty auditorium. It was rare that the old man was not sitting there.

"Where's Eagle?"

"The master is very busy, do you think he only serves you?" Archipald sneered.

Lucas looked at Archipald who had resentment written on his face, his eyes full of confusion.

He was a little confused.

"Then why are you here?"

Theater is ultimately Lucas' inner world.

"Hmph." Archipald made a disdainful nasal sound, "You don't need to know, you can go away."

Lucas woke up in reality, but he still didn't understand the situation. He entered the velvet room with a confused look, and was kicked out again with a confused look on his face.

"Hey, you're awake." Mindy, who was sitting on the chair beside the bed, greeted lazily.

"Are you a little too weak? You actually fainted even though everything was fine, but you made Peter so anxious." She complained.

"...I will pay attention to it in the future." Lucas had no choice but to admit.

"Speaking of which, have you really confirmed Jin Bin's identity?" Mindy couldn't help but ask, "How on earth was this done?"

"If there are no accidents, Kingpin's true identity is Wilson Fisk." Lucas said the information he got from Bullseye's shadow in the impression space.

"But... isn't that guy named Wilson a famous philanthropist?" Mindy said hesitantly.

It's not that she doesn't believe Lucas and others, it's actually that Wilson has packaged his identity as a philanthropist very well, and he often appears on TV and newspapers.

Wilson had a son who was assassinated by a gang in his early years, and a wife who was so depressed that she died early because of this incident. He often mentioned this matter in public, and the sadness and nostalgia on his face were very sincere. It was precisely because of this that he , the public’s impression of Wilson is pretty good.

"You must be the Phantom Thieves who steal the desires of bad people in urban legends!"

Mindy, who saw Bullseye's repentance scene, would be stupid if she couldn't guess.

"Tell me, how do you know this!" Mindy opened her eyes wide and stretched her arms to Lucas' bed.

"Well...it would be pointless to tell you..."

Just as Lucas was mid-sentence, the door was slammed open.

"That Wilson Fisk is really not a good guy!" Peter rushed in angrily.

Great opportunity to change the subject!

Lucas asked quickly: "What did you find?"

"After knowing that Kingpin was Wilson and Fisk was Kingpin, I went to investigate the charity relief supplies under the Wilson Group."

Peter, who has been Spider-Man for a while, has become more and more mature.

He said calmly: "Only a small part of the relief materials announced to the outside world have been given to those in need, and the greater part... are not relief materials at all! But various types of arms distributed to gangs!"

Mindy stood up in confusion. She looked at Peter seriously, "Are everything you said true?"

"Of course, I'm not joking about this." Peter said seriously.

Mindy fell silent. She bit her lower lip hard and clenched her fists. After a while, she gritted her teeth and cursed, "... Damn it! Damn it! This bastard! I just said where did those gangsters get so many supplies? !Thanks to our great philanthropist!”

"Yes, I was shocked when I found out." Gwen was standing at the door at some point. "I heard from my father that Wilson Fisk has connections in the military, and even has equipment from the New York Police Department. Part of it is provided by the Wilson Group..."

Mindy's body trembled again, and she murmured: "No wonder mommy died...Is this a warning to daddy..."

Then everything makes sense.

When Big Daddy was still a police officer, he discovered the military logo on the gang's weapons and conducted a secret investigation. As a result, Wilson discovered the matter and asked an undercover agent stationed in the New York Police Department to secretly warn him.

Unfortunately, Big Daddy had a strong sense of justice at the time and did not take this warning to heart at all and continued his own investigation.

In this way, Wilson naturally acted cruelly and directly used the life of Big Daddy's wife as a deterrent. Big Daddy, who saw his wife being killed with his own eyes, never recovered from the fall.

He realized that there was a mole in the system, and sadly quit the police force. While investigating Jin Bin's identity, he raised his young daughter.

Hope flapped her wings, "What a sanctimonious guy. This is the goal of repentance. Does everyone agree?"

"Well, let us repent of him." Lucas looked at his companions.

Peter: "I agree."

Gwen nodded, worry hidden in her eyes, "Of course."

"Repent?" Mindy opened her eyes wide, "Do you mean repent like Bullseye?"

"That's right," Lucas said affirmatively.

"Then..." Mindy licked her lower lip, which was bleeding from her bite, "I want to be with you."

"Well... I'm sorry." Lucas shook his head, "That place is too dangerous..."

"I'm not afraid of danger!" Mindy interrupted Lucas and stared directly at Lucas.

"Feel sorry……"

Mindy's eyes darkened, and she looked at Peter and Gwen, "Is it possible that you don't want me to go either? Peter, you know my strength, I even saved you that day! Gwen, my dad once You are also a police officer, so you should understand how I feel!"

But Peter and Gwen lowered their heads to avoid Mindy's pleading eyes. Although they didn't speak, their attitudes said too much.

"...I thought we were partners already." Mindy said sadly before leaving.

"Mindy..." Gwen looked at Mindy's leaving figure and said somewhat unbearably: "Is it really okay for us to do this?"

"Mindy doesn't have superpowers like Peter. Without a personality mask, she can only end up in the palace." Lucas shook his head.

"Now let's think carefully about Jin Bin's key words."

"First of all, Wilson Fisk." Peter entered the name into the different world APP.

[Discover the palace reaction. ]

"As expected...but this is natural. It's strange that such a great villain doesn't have a palace." Gwen said.

"But what is his key word?"

"Do you mean Hell's Kitchen?" Peter said.

The Different World APP does not respond.

"No, after knowing Fisk's name, you will understand that Hell's Kitchen is just a part of his power. If you really want to say it, the entire New York is his criminal empire." Lucas said.

[The destination has been determined, start navigation. ]

"what?"

No matter how surprised everyone is, there is no reason to panic about this familiar twisted feeling.

Mindy, who was hiding outside the room and did not leave, opened her eyes wide and looked at the twisted and absurd scene in front of her. She realized that she was approaching the biggest secret of Lucas and others.

"What is this..." Peter stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

Although the palace with the entire New York as the key word must be very large, after actually entering the palace, the size of the palace still shocked them.

The hall displays New York as Wilson Fisk perceived it, strictly speaking, what Wilson wanted New York to be.

In this twisted and chaotic space, the boundaries of various areas of the city are blocked by high walls, making it difficult to cross.

If you observe carefully, you can find that the place blocked by each high wall is where different classes are located.

The country itself is divided into various classes, which are quite obvious, but now it is even more obvious in Jin Bin's palace.

"This would be a problem if Hope hadn't turned into a helicopter," Gwen said.

The wall is so high that only Peter, as Spider-Man, can go to the other side effortlessly.

"However, it's really amazing. The scope of the palace actually covers the entire city. Fisk's desire is really strong and twisted." Hope said seriously, "Generally speaking, the bigger the palace, the bigger the palace owner." Strong, the enemy this time will be very difficult."

"We have to fight even if it's difficult. It's not our character to run away from the enemy!" Peter said confidently, clenching his fist and waving his hand.

"Yes." Lucas nodded, "Since we have come this far, it is natural to destroy this palace."

Gwen whispered, "Whether it's for Dad or Mindy, we have to do this."

"Okay! Then let's explore this city first."

On the other side of the city, Mindy watched everything around her vigilantly.

The environment here seems to be no different from reality, but all the communication equipment on her body has failed, and there is no signal at all. But this is the urban area of ​​New York.

Moreover, Mindy was just in a trance and came here from Lucas's house. This situation was obviously not right. Coupled with the words she overheard outside the room, this place looked very much like the streets of New York. I'm afraid it was the place where they It's a palace that makes people confused.

Mindy explored the area cautiously and cautiously, and she finally found a populated place, but the scene in front of her shocked her.

"That is……"

On an unfinished building, a dense crowd of naked people were building a building under their feet. Their necks were tied with chains, and they were held in black clothes, like slaves and slave owners.

Instinct tells Mindy that there must be something very important in this mysterious building, and Mindy, who loves adventure by nature, will not sit still and wait for death. She wants to go in and take a look.

Stealth is also a compulsory skill for Superkiller, and her petite body is indeed unobtrusive. Mindy successfully approached the construction area.

She was half-kneeling behind a brick wall, casting shadows to hide herself.

Mindy paid attention to the patrol route in black clothes, getting closer to the core area.

At this time, a group of slaves were led over, and Mindy saw the faces of these hard-working guys.

Blank.

All these slaves have no face!

Mindy was so shocked that she shifted her weight backwards and did not notice the small rocks behind her. She suddenly lost control of her weight and fell hard against the brick wall, making a loud noise.

"Who is there?!" The slave owner looked fiercely in the direction of Mindy.

He also had no face, and the place where his facial features were was replaced by darkness.

The movement here was noticed by more and more shadows, and Mindy was soon surrounded.

"In this case, this is the only way." Mindy took out her submachine gun.
