At ten o'clock in the evening, Luke and Selina put on special stealth suits and left home through the underground passage.
The two first went to lawyer Matma's home.
Selina didn't go in, so Luke climbed in through the window. Looking at Matt, who was huddled in the corner with a depressed look on his face, he sighed, "Did he get beaten up again?"
Matt moved his body, then relaxed: "puncher?"
Luke hummed, "What's going on?"
The Clinton area has been relatively quiet recently. Apart from Frank Custer's bloody massacre of the Irish gang and the pursuit to the hospital last night, the Hand and Kingpin have been quiet.
It can be said that all of Lawyer Ma’s old rivals were temporarily beaten away by Luke. Why did he feel like he was being bullied
Matt shook his head and barely stood up. Luke noticed that this guy was staggering when he walked, as if he had lost his sense of balance.
He walked over, picked up Matt, put him on the sofa, looked at the test information on the lens, and asked, "Concussion?"
Matt: "Sort of. Went out last night, met a guy, got shot."
Luke frowned, "Who did it?"
Matt: "The guy who killed the Irish gang, I caught up with him near the Metropolitan Hospital last night and we had a fight and he ended up shooting me in the head."
Luke looked strange. This answer was a little unexpected: "Then why didn't you die?"
Matt smiled bitterly: "He probably doesn't want to kill anyone, he just wants me to stop bothering him."
"I shot you in the head just to stop you from following me?" Luke was a little sweaty: Robert, this old comrade, seemed to have a really bad temper. Wasn't he worried about blowing Lawyer Ma's head off
Matt: "He knew my helmet was bulletproof. Otherwise, he could have killed me with just one more shot after knocking me down, but he didn't. He just left."
Luke was speechless for a moment before he asked, "Then why are you looking for him?"
Matt: "If he does this, it will destroy the security here that has just started to improve. People in other places will also think that Hell's Kitchen is still a chaotic and violent place. I can't let him do whatever he wants. And his methods are too violent. I don't think it's right to kill so many people. Those traffickers should also have a chance to change their ways."
Hearing this, Luke understood that this was a conflict of ideas.
In this respect, he is actually in the same league as Frank Custer.
But fortunately, Matt didn't know what Luke had done with his other aliases, otherwise he would have had to work hard to change someone's mind.
Luke had no interest in trying to convince Matt.
Things like life philosophy are worthless, and that’s bullshit. Many people would do anything bad for money.
It is said to be worthless, but it can make two people with no conflict of interest become mortal enemies, even if neither of them is a bad person.
That's why Luke created so many aliases, and they are all unrelated.
For example, it should be easier for Batman to get Matt's approval, while V will find it easier to gain the friendship of Damon and his daughter.
These superheroes, whose strength far exceeds that of ordinary people, all have their own pride and values, and it is difficult for them to force themselves to accept ideas that run counter to their own.
Luke has always been a pragmatist.
He doesn't care about these people's ideas. His values are more inclined to believe that normal people deserve the death of big bad guys, and the death of small bad guys is their bad luck. Ordinary people and good people can help appropriately.
That's all.
He follows a lot of rules, but he doesn't stick to the law.
Because he has a supervisory system that reaches his heart more directly than ordinary laws.
Many heroes don't dare to kill people at will because they are afraid of losing control.
Luke won't.
He even recently speculated that the system's judgment of the host's behavior is likely based on the host's own thoughts.
Like a police officer who was performing his duties attacked Luke, and he fought back and killed him.
If this situation was deliberately created by Luke, then points would be deducted.
Although he had not been detained yet, the system had given him a subtle warning when he had thought about this possibility a long time ago.
However, if a stray bullet fired by Luke happens to hit a police officer during the fight, the system will not deduct points.
Because he had no subjective intention of harming the police officers.
In short, the system's penalty criteria have nothing to do with the law and only depend on Luke's heart.
The system itself is just a program that only talks about logic and rules.
To game the law and escape guilt in the United States, all you need is money.
It was too difficult to play with the system that was connected to his soul.
Luke was even less interested in thinking about such troublesome things. After all, he had no intention of killing innocent people.
Therefore, he had no psychological weakness towards Matt and just regarded him as a good person.
After a moment's silence, he shook his head and said, "This matter is more complicated than you think. You should take good care of your injuries."
Matt said nothing.
Luke sensed his emotions and simply stopped talking.
He himself is a stubborn person, although there are not many things that can make him show this.
But if you are stubborn, nothing others say will help.
Matt's stubbornness on certain things is no less than his, and there's no point in saying more.
Soon, Luke left Matt's house.
He just stopped by to make sure Matt wasn't seriously injured or killed.
Now Matt only has a concussion. With his recovery ability, he will be fully recovered in three to five days. There is nothing to worry about.
After walking out of Matt's room, his figure turned into a transparent and distorted shadow.
After flying over several buildings, he met up with Selina, and the two of them traveled through the Clinton area at night.
…
The search for Frank Custer was not smooth.
Luke and his companions searched near the gangs for two consecutive nights but found no trace of Frank.
Starting from the third night, Luke went out on his own and no longer took Selina with him.
Selina is not him. It is impossible for her to sleep only two hours a day. She also needs to do various training to enhance her strength. It is best for her to go out only every two or three days.
When Luke went out alone, he no longer wore his armor. He just disguised his appearance and drove around slowly in a rented car.
He didn't need to search for Frank quickly.
If he slowed down appropriately, he might be able to find more clues by using his keen sense of smell and rudimentary sound wave ability.
The search range also shifted from the Clinton district at the beginning to the upper city in the north, and then extended from south to north to Harlem, East Harlem, Manhattan Mall, Washington Heights, and then went back and forth in this circle.
Theft and robbery are common in New York at night.
Robbing passers-by returning home at night and 24-hour supermarkets are the daily routine of many gangsters.
If he encountered some minor theft or robbery at night, he would just throw one or several small steel balls over.
This thing is more useful than guns and throwing knives as long as it doesn't kill people. It can even be used with some refraction techniques to knock down those thugs outside their sight.
This way, Luke would not show off his abilities, and while he could do good deeds without leaving any trace, he would still gain all his experience points.
