In American comics, drawing cards reveals wave-particle duality

Naive, so damn naive...

I can't bear to lie...

Jonathan was amazed to see how easily Daniel confided his predicament to a stranger he had just fought.

This almost childish trust and this urgent desire for recognition are glaring flaws.

Listening to Iron Fist's narration, Jonathan's eyes revealed just the right amount of sympathy, but in his heart he was constantly calculating the role of Daniel, this "chess piece".

At this time, Daniel, who didn't know he was being plotted against, was still rambling on about his discomfort in modern society:

Without a formal identity, I couldn’t even open a basic bank account... Without work experience, I encountered obstacles everywhere.

Even as a part-time coach at a martial arts school in Chinatown, he was difficult to be accepted by students because his teaching philosophy was "too traditional".

He even mentioned his embarrassment when he ordered coffee at Starbucks for the first time, and the embarrassing experience of washing dishes in a restaurant because he didn't understand credit cards.

"Oh... Daniel, I'm so sorry to hear about your experience."

Jonathan shook his head slightly, his tone full of concern.

"As a voter of Kunlun, you deserve better treatment. This world is so unfair to you."

This sentence accurately hit the most vulnerable part of Tiequan's heart. He lowered his head in shame, his voice full of helplessness:

"There's nothing I can do about it. Modern society is too complicated and I'm still trying to adapt.

Many times, I wondered why these were never taught in Kunlun’s training…”

And this is the perfect breakthrough.

"Actually, I have a suggestion."

Jonathan said suddenly.

"I own a concept technology company, and I just happen to need a security supervisor who knows oriental martial arts."

Then he paused, making sure that every word would accurately hit the iron fist's soft spot.

“The salary will be ten times what you are currently earning, and they will provide you with all the necessary identity documents.

How about bank accounts, credit cards, and even helping you rent a decent apartment?"

When Daniel heard Jonathan's words, his eyes lit up, but then he hesitated again.

"Really? This... this is too presumptuous! But I am worried about my ability. I still don't understand many things in modern society..."

"no need to worry."

Jonathan patted him on the shoulder with a kind expression.

"The fight we just had has proven your strength. As for other aspects, the company will provide complete training. More importantly, I believe in you as a person."

Jonathan knew that people like Daniel, who came from a closed environment, desired a sense of identity and belonging rather than money.

The high-paying position was just the bait; the real trap was to make him feel that he had finally found a place where he could display his talents.

The words "I believe in you" touched Daniel's heart.

In modern society, the Iron Fist, which encounters obstacles everywhere, needs this kind of recognition the most.

What's more, this recognition came from a person who "punishes evil and promotes good", which was a fatal attraction for the stubborn Daniel.

Once Daniel becomes his security chief, he will not only be able to tie him firmly to his side through work and identity, but more importantly, he will be able to use it to infiltrate Kunlun.

After all, no matter what, Daniel is the successor of Kunlun's Iron Fist, and this identity will always come in handy.

When the time comes to deal with the Jade Emperor, Daniel will be the best insider.

Even if he wanted to withdraw at that time, he would already be inseparable from his company.

This, coupled with some carefully designed "accidents", is enough to make this simple-minded Iron Fist serve you unknowingly.

The best thing is that Daniel’s simplicity and integrity actually became the best cover.

Who would suspect that an extremely pure-minded Iron Fist would be his hidden chess piece?

"Of course, if you feel you need time to think about it..."

Jonathan looked deliberately disappointed.

"Don't think about it! I accept it!"

Daniel said hurriedly, afraid to miss this opportunity.

Seeing Daniel's impatient look, Jonathan sneered in his heart.

Now that the chess piece has been delivered to your doorstep, wouldn't it be a shame if you don't make good use of it?

As for what price this chess piece will pay in the future, that is not a problem he needs to consider.

"Oh... that's great."

Jonathan smiled with satisfaction.

“Welcome to join us.”

Seeing the unconcealable joy and gratitude in Iron Fist's eyes, Jonathan had already begun to plan deeper plans in his mind.

Money, identity, status, these shackles of modern society will bind this naive warrior like invisible threads.

Once he gets used to this kind of life, he will unknowingly become an important chess piece in the chess game he has set up.

Moreover, preliminary judgment shows that given Daniel's character, he would not realize that he is being used.

He would be sincerely grateful for Jonathan's "help" and might even work harder to repay the favor.

This kind of loyalty that comes from the heart is more solid than any coercion or inducement.

After all, the best hunters won’t let their prey realize they are walking into a trap.

Instead, he would make his prey believe that they were heading towards a bright future.

at the same time.

The Jade Emperor sits high on the top of Mount Kunlun, in charge of the way of heaven and predicting destiny.

While meditating, I counted on my fingers to deduce Iron Fist's destiny, and suddenly I felt that the destiny was in disorder and the future was unpredictable.

In the past, its destiny was as clear as daylight; now, when I try to peek into its secrets again, they are like ink splashed across the sky, chaotic and indistinguishable.

Such a strange sight made the Jade Emperor frown slightly, and the teacup on the jade table actually cracked due to his pressure.

"Why did this child's fate suddenly change?"

The Jade Emperor whispered, his voice like thunder, which made all the immortal officials in the hall bow their heads and tremble.

A cold light flashed in those deep eyes, as if it could penetrate time and space.

You know, the Iron Fist lineage has been under his control for generations.

The fate of each generation of Iron Fist was arranged by the Jade Emperor himself without any mistakes. Why did the sudden change happen today?

"Somebody come!"

As soon as the Jade Emperor spoke, the temperature around him dropped sharply, and black ice suddenly appeared on the Jade Palace. It was crystal clear, but it was freezing cold.

"Chen is here!"

The immortal official on duty knelt on the ground, not daring to even breathe.

"Pass on my order, order Meng Po and Black Dragon to immediately go down to the mortal world and investigate this matter. Anyone who defies the will of heaven will be killed without mercy!"

The coldness in the Jade Emperor's eyes grew stronger, and his tone was so indifferent as if he was discussing the life or death of a fallen leaf.

"Sir, obey the order!"

The immortal official bowed his head and retreated, sweating profusely.

"Guan Xuan's message has not yet arrived. Send an order quickly and have them contact Meng Po and Black Dragon to investigate the unknown fate of the Iron Fist in the lower world."

The Jade Emperor sat alone, tapping the jade table with his fingers, making a clear dragon roar.

His eyes were as sharp as torches, looking down at the world through the sea of ​​clouds.

The Iron Fist lineage has always been an important chess piece in their plan for the human world, so how could they allow it to be lost?

"How dare a mere ant on earth go against the will of heaven?"

The Jade Emperor sneered, and before he finished speaking, all the jade trees outside the palace shattered into powder and drifted away in the wind.

The Jade Emperor waved his sleeves and a map of the celestial phenomena appeared, in which the sun, moon, stars moved, and the mountains, rivers and earth undulated.

Where the iron fist is, it's like being covered with thick ink, which is disturbing.

"Someone is secretly plotting to escape fate."

A cold light flashed in the Jade Emperor's eyes.

"wishful thinking!"

After a while, Meng Po and the black dragon went before the Jade Emperor to listen to the announcement.

"Iron Fist's fate is different. Someone must be secretly interfering in this incident. You should go to the human world quickly and find out who is interfering with Iron Fist."

The Jade Emperor's voice was like thunder, and the pillars of the palace trembled slightly.

""In addition, the whereabouts of the Ten Rings must also be noted."

Meng Po bowed and said:

"Your Majesty, are you worried that this person is related to the Ten Rings?"

"Exactly."

A cold light flashed in the Jade Emperor's eyes.

"This person was able to conceal the secrets of heaven, and his methods are extraordinary. I suspect that the Ten Rings may be related to this beast... You should go to the lower world and investigate this matter carefully."

Black Dragon bowed respectfully and responded.

"Your Majesty, please understand. I will do my best to search for you."

"The matter of the Ten Rings cannot be taken lightly. This object is an ancient divine artifact."

"I am connected to the Nine Heavens above and the Netherworld below. Now that I have fallen into the mortal world, I am afraid that disaster will come. If you can find the trace of the Ten Rings, I will come to the lower world in person."

"Just go."

The Jade Emperor waved his sleeves, and the two gods hurried away as if they had been pardoned.
