A pitch-black cape and eyes that flash blue and white light, who else could it be but the Dark Knight.
Luke casually shot out a grappling hook, hooked the tail of it onto a separate seat in his other hand, and shot it to the river bank several dozen meters away.
The grappling hook shot to the shore, fixed on a railing and automatically began to shorten, pulling the single seat and the Shield members on it quickly to the shore.
At the headquarters, Nick Fury frowned, and several people around him looked over.
He glanced with his one eye and said, "The Dark Knight is not an enemy. Do not interfere with him. At the same time, send someone to the river to rescue these people immediately."
The order was immediately sent to rescue workers in New York.
In fact, the men just wanted to determine Nick Fury's attitude towards the Dark Knight.
SHIELD is a special agency that handles supernatural events. In theory, the Dark Knight should be detained, questioned, investigated and kept under surveillance. Saving a few SHIELD members does not exempt them from this process.
The so-called life-saving grace is not as important as most of the lower-class people think.
In reality, there are many cases where ordinary people rescued an agent, only to be killed by the agent.
Soon, the Dark Knight rescued a group of 18 people who had fallen into the water and sent them to the shore.
At this time, on the motorboat not far from him, the captain of the rescue team shouted: "Dark Knight, we need to talk to you about the Joker issue just now."
A grappling hook flew over, and Luke used the force to tap the water surface a few times, and then landed on the motorboat: "Who is Joker? Do you have any information about him?"
Rescue team: … We should be the ones asking you questions, why are you asking us first
But the situation was stronger than the people. They wanted to find out the Joker's whereabouts from the Dark Knight, but they didn't have the ability to capture and interrogate him like they would ordinary people.
The rescue team leader could only briefly explain Joker's situation, and then immediately asked: "Where is Joker? Did he escape or die?"
The Dark Knight has no one, so there are only these two possibilities.
Luke: "He ran away. He detonated several X-bombs in the water and took advantage of the muddy water to get away."
The rescue team leader looked unhappy, but he was not too surprised.
Tonight they have witnessed the power of the psychopath Joker, so it is normal that he was able to run away.
Before he could say anything else, Luke turned around and jumped into the river.
Rescue leader: "Wait a minute?"
But in front of him was only the ever-flowing Hudson River and the ripples on the river surface.
The next second, the water waves were dispersed by the subsequent waves, and no trace could be seen anymore.
He slowly withdrew his hand, sighed, and turned on the intercom: "The Dark Knight has left and has no intention of further contact with us."
…
More than ten minutes later, Luke, wearing a large hooded sweatshirt, sweatpants and a black baseball cap, sat down in the Williamsburg restaurant.
Outside the window, a police car was driving slowly on the street with its lights flashing but no sirens.
Caroline had just cleaned up a pool of drunkard's vomit and threw it into the trash can outside the door.
After walking back, she smiled at Luke who was standing by the window not far from the door and said, "It's almost two o'clock. Why aren't these patrolmen sleeping today? Did something big happen again?"
Luke shrugged and picked up his phone and shook it. "The latest news from Feixun is that a large area near the Brooklyn Bridge has been blocked by the police. Some people in the circle said that there might be a dangerous suspect fleeing in that area."
Caroline patted her chest and said, "Fortunately it's not here."
Luke smiled brightly: "Don't worry, I'm here, I guarantee your safety."
Caroline also laughed, then she thought of something, nodded with a stiff expression, and walked away.
Luke didn't pay much attention.
Caroline kept walking, but she was shouting in her heart: Oh my God, could he be remembering the first time he came here
After all, the only thing that can prove the fighting power of this "Chris Evans" is his first meeting with Max and the two girls.
At that time, he subdued an armed robber, and Caroline was scared to death by the robber.
This is not a very pleasant memory for her.
After a while, the restaurant began to turn off the lights and close.
Max and Caroline came out and got into Luke's SUV and drove back to Max's house.
Caroline got off the car, and then looked at the men and women in the front row waving goodbye to her, and she had a bad feeling in her heart: "You... ?"
Max chuckled, "Chris said he had a little surprise for me, so we're going to go for a walk alone."
Caroline: (⊙﹏⊙)
After a moment, she waved goodbye and the SUV drove away.
When the car disappeared on the street, her shoulders slumped and she walked towards the house like a zombie: "Damn you little watch, tomorrow is Valentine's Day! You guys are showing off today, do you think I'm easy to bully?"
After yelling, she was quiet for a moment and bowed to reality again: "Yes, I am easy to bully, because I am bankrupt."
"Shut up! Damn it, beep, beep. If you keep screaming I'll come out and break you in half!" An angry roar came from the door next to her.
Caroline shuddered, covered her mouth, and tiptoed away from the door, still unable to help muttering, "You're so ugly, I don't want to be cut in half by you..."
…
Luke looked away from the rearview mirror, and thinking of Caroline's sad back, he couldn't help but ask, "Actually, it's not a surprise for us to go to the Brooklyn Bridge to watch the NYPD."
Max rolled his eyes: "I asked you just now, you said you had to go on a business trip tomorrow, what can I do?"
Luke laughed: "What that means is..."
Max: "I mean, let's celebrate in advance."
Luke couldn't help but glance sideways: "Celebrate?"
Max chuckled and held his head high: "But I decided to go and watch the fun first."
As she spoke, she took out her phone and quickly scrolled through the hot headlines on Feixun and F2F: "There are quite a few lucky guys who passed by the Brooklyn Bridge tonight and happened to capture what happened there with their car recorders. They have already been bought by a TV station, at least $200 per piece. Damn, this is much more profitable than our small cakes."
Luke's mouth curled up. "Nonsense. I made 200 cupcakes for you a few days ago. They should be worth at least 400 dollars in labor costs."
Max's eyes widened and he turned to look at him: "Hey, I worked for two hours that night, too. Isn't the strawberry cream cake delicious?"
Luke laughed: "That means you just earned $400."
Max rubbed his chin subconsciously: "But I'm a little tired of earning these four hundred dollars."
The two of them were exchanging verbal attacks. There were not many cars at night, and the SUV quickly reached the river.
But just after crossing the riverside of the Manhattan Bridge, the car was stopped by a police car.
The patrolman behind the ice cream warning barrel only said that the riverside section ahead was temporarily blocked and asked everyone to detour from other locations.
Luke and Max turned around consciously and stopped at a green space by the river more than a hundred meters away.
