Today, New York is a world-renowned "safe place".
There are many petty thefts here, but those who dare to use knives or guns are extremely rare.
Unless you encounter a sudden superpower incident, this place is safer than most big cities.
The deterrent power of the Bat Squad has gone viral.
From the small circle of gang members, it extended to the circle of people with super powers, and even to the circle of mercenaries and killers.
It's okay to be an ordinary passerby in New York, but once you get into trouble, it's easy to get a broken bone, and it's common to be sent to the hospital and then to jail.
Violent incidents of armed crime in New York this year are 30 percent lower than the same period three years ago.
This is also the reason why Mindy dared to bring Joseph out for "actual combat training".
Mindy waved her hands and said, "Just beat these hooligans, why are you so sentimental? If you have the time, you can use that little app to help me figure out where to find the dealers' hideout."
Joseph was a little helpless: "Why are you always obsessed with finding trouble with traffickers? Because they are so bad?"
Mindy said without hesitation: "Of course it's for money. It's more profitable to take down a trafficker's den than to beat up a hundred thugs."
Joseph was confused: "Huh?"
Shouldn't the answer be to be chivalrous and righteous? After all, when this guy formed the Ursa Minor, he boasted a lot about the truth.
Didn't he feel that what she said made some sense? Wouldn't he, a genius and future great scientist, accompany her out at night to beat up some hooligans
Besides, how much does it cost to take down a den? Can it make more money than his little game
You know, Angry Birds was launched not long ago, but it got a good new product recommendation position in the Titanium Store, and the number of downloads skyrocketed.
He simply plugged that data into a simple mathematical model and was able to get an expected income of millions of dollars a year.
Although dividends have to be paid to the co-producer "the one with clumsy hands", this is just a small game.
Joseph had heard many more ideas from Luke.
Not to mention that he has other plans to make money from money. As long as he gets on the right track, it is impossible to make hundreds of thousands of dollars in minutes, but it is no problem to make a stable monthly income of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
It would take a long time to squeeze so much money out of these half-dead and increasingly hidden traffickers in New York!
He complained so much in his mind that he couldn't utter a word for a moment.
After a long while, he came to his senses and found that there were low buildings all around him, but he had come to the rooftop of a four-story building in the east of Queens.
Mindy lifted her invisibility and returned to her all-white appearance. She sat on the edge of the rooftop, took out two chocolates from the bag on her waist and motioned to him, "Take a break."
Joseph consciously lifted his invisibility, walked over to take the chocolate, and sat down next to him.
Looking at the short legs of someone humming a song and swinging them in the air, and then thinking of Nikki's long legs, he felt his heart twitching and silently turned his head to eat the chocolate.
The two of them had lost some tacit understanding recently, so they didn't chat.
However, Joseph habitually used his common sense of psychology to analyze that the violent girl's preference for going out at night must be the rebellious period of the girl.
Unfortunately, her father was a bit intimidating, so she could only bring her friend with her to vent her restless emotions.
It seems that I need to be more careful when I reach this age in the future. This rebellious period caused by endocrine system is a bit inconvenient and a waste of time.
Moreover, his brothers and sisters in his family are all thick-skinned and black-hearted people, and you can't afford to offend them.
Just as the two were studying and being studied, a voice suddenly sounded behind them: "What are you doing?"
Both of them were startled and turned their heads at the same time.
The difference is that when Mindy turned her head and turned around, she did not forget to stand up with one hand.
Joseph turned his head and moved his body, and suddenly he felt something empty under his butt. He let out a strange cry and disappeared from the rooftop.
Mindy rolled her eyes, not wanting to see the newbie's poor performance.
But in order to prevent this guy from falling and getting hurt, she could only throw away the half chocolate in her other hand, touch it at her waist and throw it.
A yo-yo flew out and hung Joseph, who was dancing and falling, on the second floor. It bounced several times, making him make a turning "Ah~Ah~Ah~" sound.
Mindy really wanted to cover her face with her hands: This guy is such a disgrace to the Ursa Minor people.
But when she saw the face of the person who spoke behind her, her eyes lit up: "Hi, how old are you?"
Three meters away from her, a barefoot little girl in a white nightdress shook her head: "I can't say."
Mindy was stunned: "What's your name?"
The little girl continued to shake her head: "I can't say."
Mindy wanted to ask something else, but she heard Joseph's weak voice below: "Um, can you pull me up first?"
She let go of his hand in annoyance and heard a short "Ah~".
"Boom!" The world finally became quiet.
Two seconds later, Joseph poked his head out from behind the edge of the rooftop, a little embarrassed: "Actually, you could be a little gentler."
Mindy snorted, "Starting tomorrow, I'm going to give you some more levitation training."
Joseph: …
After a quarrel, their eyes fell on the little girl in the white dress not far away again.
Joseph raised his hand and touched the side of his forehead inconspicuously, quickly turned on the detection function of the visor, and closed the open mouth visor.
Mindy continued her previous question: "So what can you say?"
The little girl tilted her head and thought about it, then shook her head decisively: "I don't know."
Mindy: …
Joseph coughed lightly: "What's the matter with you looking for us?"
The little girl's eyes fell on him, with a little curiosity and uncertainty in her eyes: "Who... are you?"
Joseph pondered for a few breaths and replied, "The man of destiny."
Mindy next to him glanced sideways in surprise, as if shocked by her younger brother's domineering nickname.
The little girl nodded: "You look a bit like someone I know."
Joseph: “Who?”
Little girl: “I can’t say.”
Mindy: …
Joseph: …
As the little girl occasionally said "no", the first communication between the three children began.
…
Luke did not monitor Joseph's every move, and he was not worried about his brother's safety.
Joseph, who is with Mindy, wears nano armor at all times.
Although it was strange that Mindy gave his brother the armor, Luke was encouraging about it.
There's nothing shameful about a man eating imported food by relying on his own ability.
Most men don't have the conditions to eat it, so they are so jealous of such outstanding men.
No matter where Joseph got his armor, in an emergency, Luke could directly check Joseph's situation.
If any boy knew that he was under close surveillance 24 hours a day, his inner world would definitely collapse.
Joseph, a cold and sensitive little brother, could not be fooled by the excuse of "it's all for your own good".
Therefore, without Luke's knowledge, Ursa Minor quietly turned into an unexpectedly "weird" organization.
