Shadow of the Beautiful World

44. The Hell's Kitchen Incident (Part 1)

Wade, they all say you're dead.

In a slum bar in Rio de Janeiro, Deadpool is sitting in a box, drinking with the surviving Hydra commander. Well, the side dish is three burritos, Wade's favorite.

These two guys who were fighting to death just now are like best friends now, and the Hydra commander named Bob is probably frightened, in short, he drinks very fast, It seemed like he was planning to get himself drunk.

Bob took a sip of his wine, and said to Deadpool who lifted his hood a little bit and was eating a burrito with gusto:

I went to see you after I retired, but your house was empty, and your neighbor told me you moved in with a prostitute. Then I went to the bar you frequented, and that one didn't look good. How the hell did the normal bartender tell me you died... died years ago? Wade.

Things are complicated, and you are a normal person. You can't keep up with my thinking, and it's hard for me to explain it to you, Bob.

Wade shrugged, he filled his burrito with ketchup, and said indifferently:

I should have killed you, Bob, it was my job.

But for the sake of your wife who once cooked me a big meal, and for the sake of your two lovely children, I'll pretend I haven't seen you, run away, before they send someone else to find you, Run as far as you can, preferably in the deepest grave you can find, and dig a hole and bury yourself until this fucking thing is over.

End? No, it won't end.

Bob, who was drunk, Wade's comrade-in-arms when he served in the Middle East, and a good friend who went to the battlefield together, said to Wade with a look of despair:

There's something wrong with the thing I'm escorting, those lunatic hydra won't let me go, my God, I wouldn't have taken this job if I had known.

Speaking of which, why did you get mixed up with Hydra?

Wade wiped the ketchup from his finger on Bob's sleeve, picked up another burrito, and asked curiously:

Don't you hate these secret organizations the most?

I have a family to support, Wade.

Bob glanced at his blood and ketchup messy sleeves, shook his head, whimpered, and said:

That little pension is not enough, you know me, I don't know anything other than fighting wars, and I can't let my wife support me, so I can only go back to my old business... Hydra is actually pretty good , besides the crazy brainwashing propaganda, they spend a lot of money, and the benefits are very good, there is dental insurance, and occasionally they can call a few brainwashed girls to have a good time.

But it's not working in the last few months. I almost got shot when S.H.I.E.L.D. raided the Hydra branch. I planned to quit after finishing this job, but I didn't expect to meet you.

That's a good thing, Bob, think about it.

Wade persuaded carelessly:

If it's not me, you're dead. Those demon hunters under S.H.I.E.L.D. don't care if you join Hydra for money or because you've been brainwashed. If they say they want to kill you, they will kill you. They They're all a bunch of lunatics, as crazy as Merlin, and even more crazy than me.

well.

Bob sighed, and said sadly:

Then it seems that I'd better go back earlier and find a job washing dishes. Although I earn a little less, at least my life is not in danger. Speaking of which, Wade, are you a member of S.H.I.E.L.D. now? Or are you with me? Same, working your life for money?

I'm not like you, Bob, I'm for something more important.

Deadpool patted his clothes full of bullet holes triumphantly, and said:

I'm fighting for freedom. After this mission is over, I will be free. That bastard Merlin can no longer keep me in a cage.

Merlin? Merlin Riley?

Bob's hand trembled, and he said:

You work for Merlin? Hell, he's the one Hydra's lunatics want to kill the most. They even offered a reward. Merlin's head is worth 27 million!

Only 27 million?

Deadpool said in surprise:

You want to buy Merlin's head for 27 million? Are you Hydras stupid? Who would provoke Merlin for 27 million? At least double it?

Who knows?

Bob snorted and said:

I can't control this anymore, I have to go, Wade, thank you for letting me go, I will repay you in the future, I swear.

Wait, don't go yet.

Wade grabbed Bob's wrist who was leaving, and he said:

Tell me where the Hydras who are connected with you are hiding. I have to make more orders and save some money when Merlin is willing to hire me to work. The livelihood is difficult, and everyone has to eat Well, you won’t need those messages anyway.”

etc.

Bob blinked and said to Wade:

You help them kill and make money?

Yes, I have.

deadpool says:

I will be free soon. If they don't give me money, am I going to work for them for nothing?

Well... that's it.

Bob's eyes rolled around, he looked left and right, and said to Wade in a low voice:

I suddenly had a great idea, Wade, why don't we join forces to make a big one...I'll tell you what I know, all the strongholds of Hydra in South America, you go and kill them. After the completion, no matter how much S.H.I.E.L.D. pays you, I will take one-third of it... just as hard work.

One-third? Bob, I just let you go!

Wade screamed dissatisfied like a castrated male singer:

Your asking price is too high! You're just talking, but I'm going to rush out to fight for my life! One tenth, no more!

one fifth!

Bob did not hesitate to cut the price. After realizing that Hydra was gone, Bob decisively sold his previous employer. He said to Deadpool:

Well, I want one sixth, but you can't expose my existence, I mean, you just treat me as dead, don't report my existence... You have to understand, Wade, I also At risk.

make a deal!

Wade took the last bite of the burrito, shook the ketchup off his hand, and said to Bob:

Give me the information. I will send your share of the money directly to your wife.

Damn it, get him! He stole my wallet!

On the commercial street in Hell's Kitchen, sharp screams echoed in the neighborhood. A blond girl pointed at the fleeing thief and yelled, but the people around were just watching and didn't intend to help. Even the police standing by the side of the road had no intention of intervening in this matter.

This is Hell's Kitchen...

In Manhattan, and even the most chaotic and poorest area in New York, petty theft is not a crime at all here, it is a part of the daily life of residents here.

However, there are always some warm-hearted people who choose to help.

swish

Just when the thief who snatched the bag ran more than ten meters away, a young man in a black hood stretched out his legs suddenly. The running thief couldn't dodge. , fell to the ground in embarrassment, and the wallet he had stolen also fell by his hand.

The thief turned his head and stared at the person who tripped him viciously. He seemed to be planning to teach this guy a hard lesson, but seeing the lazy policeman next to him turn his head away, the thief could only curse fiercely and then limped. Abducted into the crowd.

The young black man who tripped over the thief stretched out his hand to pick up the wallet from the ground. He looked back at the owner of the wallet. A blonde girl in a long white dress ran over panting. A smile appeared on his face under the hood. He reached out and handed the wallet in his hand to the girl.

This doesn't seem to be any different from what he's been doing lately...

But just as the girl stretched out her hand to hold the wallet, the skins of the two people touched together, a pulsating white light and a mass of spreading darkness lit up in the palm of the young black man's hand almost at the same time.

Now, both the helper and the helpee showed surprised expressions.

Are you... superhuman?

The blond girl looked at the young man with a hood in front of her, who whispered:

The same to you?

Well, my name is Tandy and I'm from Cleveland, Ohio.

The blond girl seemed to have just grown up, she generously extended her hand to the young black man who helped him, the latter hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand to hold the white shimmering fingers, and said in a low voice:

Tyrone, from Boston.

Seeing the innocent smile on Miss Tandy's face, the black Tyrone couldn't help but smile too, and he said:

Be careful with your wallet next time, miss, it's quite messy here, I'll go first.

Goodbye, Mr. Superhero.

The young girl waved to Tai Long who had helped her. They had just met by chance, and there was no friendship. They were just curious about each other because they both had abilities, but this would not change the trajectory of their lives.

It is very difficult for a rich girl from a poor family and a poor boy to have a life intersection.

Of course, accidents always happen, otherwise the world would be too boring.

kuang

A loud noise suddenly erupted in the busiest neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen. Along with the loud noise, flames shot up into the sky, as if a bomb had exploded on the street. The terrifying scene was on the spot A car was blown up, causing the surrounding pedestrians to cover their heads and scream, and fled in chaos.

something bad happened...

Tyrone, a black man, helped up a woman who had fallen by her feet, and then looked back. On the other side of the street, the glass door at the entrance of a bank had been smashed, and several guys in black hoods were dragging bags full of money. , brandishing a weapon and rushing out.

This is a bank robbery, and it can be regarded as a repertoire in Hell's Kitchen.

Get out of the way! Get out of the way, out of the way!

The three thugs waved their weapons and planned to leave in a car. They seemed to be habitual offenders. From the way they walked, they even looked very leisurely.

However, Tyrone quickly noticed that Miss Tandy, who was robbed of her wallet just now, was standing in front of the car in front of the three robbers. There are three white light daggers floating on the fingers, it seems that they are planning to fight back.

But she seemed to have overlooked that one of the three robbers was holding a grenade that could be thrown at any time.

No! Don't!

Tai Long had a premonition that something was wrong, and the young black man didn't care to hide his ability any longer. The black hood on his body was elongated at this moment, like a cloak rolling in the dark. Between the shining cloak, his figure It disappeared suddenly, and when it reappeared, it was standing beside Miss Tandy.

However, he was one step too late.

Miss Tandy had already thrown the floating white light dagger in her hand. She was very close to the three robbers, and the flying dagger pierced into the bodies of the three robbers almost in the blink of an eye.

The moment the light dissipated on the robber's body, the three strong guys fell limply to the ground as if they had been sucked dry.

Things have come to this, it should be regarded as the perfect ending for superheroes fighting evil...

However, at the moment the robber fell, he used his last strength to pull the latch in his hand. At the moment he fell to the ground, the activated grenade slid in the air and hit Miss Tandy who was at a loss. come over.

Black Tyrone pushed Miss Tandy away, he used his ability to wrap the beating grenade, and then disappeared in place.

His ability allows him to walk in a weird shadow dimension, where a few steps are equivalent to miles on the earth, but Talon has only just acquired the ability, and he is not very skilled in using it.

The streets are full of screaming, fleeing normal people, and a bomb going off here would do bad, bad things, so Talon tries to get the ready-to-explode grenade to a safer place to detonate.

However, when his shadow dimension opened again, what appeared in front of his eyes was not an empty basketball court or an open area, but a community charity organization that was open.

It will be lunch time. The front of the house is almost full of homeless people. They line up in an orderly manner, waiting for the staff and volunteers of the charity organization to prepare food for them. Counting the staff of the charity organization , there are at least 40 people here.

Let's go!

The desperate Tai Long only had time to shout a warning, and the next moment, the grenade he brought exploded in his hand.

boom

The bursting flames immediately flooded everything in front of Tai Long's eyes...

hum

Merlin, who was dealing with things in the office, suddenly felt the beating of magic power, and the magic warning he left on Mei was activated.

Snapped

The signature pen in Merlin's hand was broken into two pieces at this moment, and his figure disappeared at the same time.

When he reappeared, he came to the community charity where Mei worked, and in front of Mei Lin, there was a bloody square, and the bombs that exploded in the crowd had almost reached the extreme lethality.

Worst of all, May Riley, Merlin's only sister, was among the crowd.

Well...

Now someone is going to be unlucky.
