After confirming this, Luke turned his attention to the drone over there.

The Internet Shadowless Man has always left no trace, but this time he left the drone, a physical piece of evidence, uncollected? This is unscientific.

Like Luke, when he uses various raw materials, he will try his best to erase all traces.

Otherwise, there will be too many things left and it will be easy to connect some things together.

Of course, the main reason is that Lu has too many aliases and even more enemies.

If people really find out that those aliases are all the same person, I'm afraid a lot of people will go crazy and want to track him down and kill him.

Among the three drones, the problem mainly occurred with the one he inspected.

Only this one has the wireless transmission function, the other two do not. There are also problems with the control and operating system, which means it was made by another person.

This person did do a lot of cover-up, trying his best to imitate the appearance and structure of the other two drones, but it was not detailed enough.

However, his keen sense of smell could not trace the maker's scent, which meant it was not made in the last few days.

In addition, this drone has been in use much longer than the other two, and it is difficult to retain the maker's aura after being exposed to wind and sun.

Luke first asked Xiao Wo to trace the codes on multiple parts, and then extended the investigation according to their possible destinations.

At nightfall, Xiao Wo sent a message to him in the basement workshop: "Sir, the suspect who made the drone has been identified."

Luke put down the mind control helmet in his hand and said, "Show me the information."

Two seconds later, he looked at the projected photo in astonishment: "Phineas Mason?"

Xiao Snail: "Yes, sir. There are many parts of the drone that should have been purchased by him. He is highly suspicious."

Luke smacked his lips, not knowing what to say.

Phineas Mason, this person's identity is not complicated.

A former electronic engineer and mechanical engineer, he is now a small shareholder of the Clinton District Transportation Company, Adrian's closest old friend, and one of the technical talents that Luke values.

If Luke had to pick a researcher from Adrian's group of brothers, the first choice would be Mr. Mason.

After pondering for a moment, Luke decided to intervene in this matter.

Others didn't know, but he knew very well that the woman with Cook was lying.

Cook's injury was probably caused by her getting up in panic, while the young master was already in a coma or semi-comatose state at that time.

However, this woman was frightened, she was high on drugs, and her memory was very vague. Of course, she would not be stupid enough to blame herself for Cook's injury.

The woman's presence, and her confession, misled the Soderbergh investigators.

Cook also liked to take women to have sex with drugs, so it was not surprising that he overdosed and passed out this time. The Soderbergh family did not dare to make it public.

And once they find out that it was actually Phineas who used a drone to put the New York mayor's only son into a deep coma and there was a possibility that he would become a vegetable, then there would be a big problem.

At that time, it was not uncommon for Mr. Mason's entire family to die.

As Luke was thinking this, the clone in the Nassau County villa had already set out and headed for Phineas's house.

But in less than half a minute, the clone turned and headed for Queens General Hospital.

Luke couldn't help but mutter in his heart: Isn't it such a coincidence? The death ray I mentioned is just an adjective group.

He would rather be a koi fish than a crow. Otherwise, everyone around him would be unlucky, and that would be the standard for unlucky Marvel protagonists!

Just now, Alfu investigated Phineas' recent situation.

Then, it was discovered that his daughter, Brailee, had been admitted to the hospital and was currently in a deep coma.

Phineas had divorced his ex-wife long ago and raised his daughter alone.

That is to say, there are only two people in the Mason family, and 50% of them are now in the hospital.

Luke quickly checked the information and soon got a police record from more than a month ago from the police station. The conclusion was "overdose of illegal drugs leading to coma."

This is nothing unusual; the NYPD has a ton of these dispatch logs, with hundreds of new ones added every day.

But Luke noticed something unusual at a glance: "Breeley was unconscious in the small square outside the apartment building at No. 279 on the Upper West Side?"

He had just been to this place today.

Yes, it was the small square where he and Lindsay sat for a while.

This small square belongs to Apartment Building No. 279, and Mr. Cook, who is in a deep coma due to drugs, lives on the 25th floor.

This is such a typical coincidence.

It's best not to jump to conclusions before you have evidence, but Luke already has a rough outline of the story in his mind.

The true situation of the matter would become clear if he had a frank talk with Phineas.

Ten minutes later, Luke couldn't help but sigh as he watched Phineas walk out of the back door of the hospital and head towards the alley next to it.

I just sent a simple and vague text message to Phineas. After hesitating for a few minutes, he finally came out.

It would be ridiculous to say that he didn't do anything to Mr. Cook.

Phineas was feeling dizzy and his heart was pounding, and he felt like he was having a heart attack.

The content of the text message just now made him shudder with fear.

Just the words "I know what you did to that scumbag with the drone" forced Phineas to come out and meet this mysterious man.

Phineas walked around the alley and into the half-open back door of an apartment building. He walked through the passage, turned right, and saw an open apartment door.

An old voice sounded in his ears: "Come in, Mr. Mason."

Phineas shuddered all over and looked around subconsciously. There was no one around him, but the voice just now seemed to be whispering in his ear.

Taking a deep breath and suppressing the panic in his heart, he walked into the room and the door closed silently behind him.

There was only a small dim light on in the living room. He took two steps forward and saw an old man in a formal suit sitting there, his face completely in the shadow of the light.

The old man extended his hand and gestured: "Hello, Mr. Mason, please sit down and talk."

Phineas went over and sat down silently, then he felt himself becoming dazed.

After a moment, he suddenly came back to his senses, blinked and looked at the old man in black: "You, what do you want to do?"

He didn't think that the old man asked him to come just to sit there and stare blankly.

Luke laughed.

Just now, he had used drugs combined with his newly acquired mental hypnosis and hallucinations to learn the truth from Phineas - at least that was what the other party thought was the truth.

But in the system, Mr. Cook is bright red evil, Phineas is dark yellow neutral, and Phineas's comatose daughter is ordinary yellow neutral.

It is very obvious who is right and who is wrong in this matter.

There was no reason for Luke to help a big name and give up a neutral reserve employee.

He just said: "I already know what happened between your daughter and Cook. I also know that you retaliated against Cook for it."

Phineas' body trembled, and he was shocked and scared.

People are like this. They don't care about anything when they take revenge, and only think about the serious consequences after they're done.

Fortunately, Luke's time is valuable, and he has no interest in helping the scumbag Cook scare people, so he immediately stated his intention: "I can help you solve all the problems, including waking up your daughter, on the condition that you work for me, how about it?"
