Chapter 175: The Name of Justice
Looking at Rachel's stiff expression, Hodge smiled secretly, "By the way, you haven't said what you are here to do."
After the joke, Hodge began to go straight to the point. He didn't believe that this woman who claimed to be a vampire hunter was just here to make friends with him.
"If I said I just wanted to meet you, would you believe it?" Seeing Hodge start asking about the serious matter, Rachel raised her eyebrows and a charming smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Hodge shrugged and said, "Do you think I will believe it? Also, how did you know me, and the address of my house."
This question was actually what Hodge wanted to ask at the beginning, but he had never had a chance before, and now he just happened to be able to tell it.
"The Internet is everywhere." Rachel looked at Hodge with a surprised expression and blurted out.
Then, Rachel did not give Hodge a chance to speak, and continued, "As for why he knew you, I had been observing the vampire's nest nearby that day."
"Heroes are really good to save the beauty, but because you took the rash action, they were frightened and left the hidden nest overnight, which made me waste my efforts for more than three months of exploration and preparation." Rachel said gritting her teeth, looking at Hodge with a pair of beautiful eyes, her white teeth grinding loudly.
"What?" Hodge raised his eyebrows, wrapped his hands on his chest, leaning his body gently on the sofa, and said slowly.
For the woman Rachel, although she had been with her for a while, Hodge found that this woman's acting skills could definitely be at the Oscars, because her face change was so fast that it was impossible to tell whether it was true or not.
Hodge's indifferent look made Rachel's eyelids twitch. Looking at the man who was indifferent, she wanted to use the pistol at her waist to break him directly.
Unfortunately, according to her investigation and understanding, the bullet is like cotton in the other party's eyes, without any threat.
Thinking of this, Rachel felt that she was too careless this time. She should carefully investigate Hodge's personality and habits, and then come over.
Now that things have come, Rachel is not ready to follow his plan. Her expression of gritting teeth changes again, and a cunning look appeared on her charming face.
Just as Hodge lamented that this woman was changing and was about to see how she was going to continue acting, Rachel unexpectedly changed her goal.
Bypass Hodge, moved directly to Melissa who had just arrived at the living room with two glasses of juice, picked up a glass of lying juice without hesitation and poured it in one breath. Then, naturally put the empty cup back on the tray, and said to Melissa with a smile: "Thank you for your lying juice, by the way, do you know the vampire?"
"Vampire?" Melissa's eyes widened instantly, with curious expressions. She quickly placed the tray in her hand on the coffee table and said excitedly: "I know, do you like reading novels too?"
“…”
Looking at Melissa who looked excited and curious, Rachel was speechless and opened her mouth and explained: "I mean..."
"She likes to read some supernatural novels." Just as she wanted to say something about the vampire, Hodge frowned and spoke to stop what she wanted to say.
He doesn't want Melissa to touch too much of what you don't need to know. After all, the more you know in this world, the more dangerous it is.
Rachel was obviously planning to tell Melissa about the vampire matter that no matter what her ultimate goal was, Hodge knew that she wanted her to help.
"Oh ~ yes, I saw you have been reading this kind of books before, so I want to talk to you." Hearing Hodge's voice, Rachel, who turned her back to Hodge, showed a winning smile. However, this smile flashed away, and even Melissa, who was facing her, did not notice it.
"Is that true?" Melissa looked at Hodge in confusion, then turned to look at Rachel who was smiling. Seeing that her expression didn't seem to be fake, she nodded in a clear way.
But she still asked Hodge: "How do you know she likes to read supernatural novels?"
"We mentioned it when we were talking just now." Hodge pulled the corner of his mouth and showed an embarrassing smile.
Hodge's explanation is also very reasonable, and there is another person who is willing to lie for him. Of course, Melissa will not see any flaws.
Seeing that Melissa finally stopped doubting, Hodge quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Looking at Rachel who was chatting and laughing with Melissa, Hodge had to admire Rachel's acting skills and erudition.
She seemed to know a lot of things. No matter what Melissa said, she could always get along with her. You should know that Melissa usually keeps chewing on books.
But no matter how much he admires, Hodge is still very unhappy about Rachel's uninvited approach, and this semi-'coercive' method made him even more unhappy.
With a faint glance at Rachel, Hodge returned to his room.
Take out the golden infinite gloves he put in after he came back from the drawer of creation. Looking at the stone of power lingering red light on it, Hodge slowly put it on his right hand.
Whether it was the appearance of the Sentinel or the strange man he met in space, Hodge felt a threat. Although nothing could be seen from the Sentinel for the time being, there was nothing absolute in the world.
It is better to be prepared in advance than to be busy at that time.
However, just as Hodge was thinking about the dangerous figure that suddenly appeared, over Manhattan, the strange man who had met him in space was now looking down at the steel-like city.
The golden sunshine shone without any scruples, shining on his body, which was wrapped in a red tights like a sculpture. Corresponding to his strong body was a rough and resolute face and a strong short hair.
The man floated quietly in the air, looking at the long dragon traffic and dense crowd below, his mouth slightly raised and murmured to himself: "Mortal..."
At this moment, a sharp sirens whizzed past him. The man looked down and saw more than twenty police cars chasing a large transport truck frantically.
"Speed! Increase the speed of the car! You must not let them run away!"
In a police car headed by the police car, a sheriff sitting in the passenger seat roared loudly with a walkie-talkie.
As the sheriff roared, the speed of all police cars increased again and the distance between them gradually approached the truck. Seeing this scene, the sheriff's face improved a little.
"Sir, what is the truck that the robbers robbed?" The police officer driving the police car glanced at his boss with a blushing face and asked carefully.
When he heard his subordinate's question, the sheriff was stunned for a moment, and did not answer. Instead, he looked at the dial in the car first. Then he looked at the police officer who was driving for him in surprise and said in surprise: "Good boy, you have good driving skills! Have you learned it before?"
After receiving praise from his boss, the police officer who drove the car smiled awkwardly. He explained: "I often send police, and I must ensure that I can arrive at the scene as fast as possible. Occasionally I have to pursue fugitives, so I naturally got my driving skills."
Hearing his subordinates' answer, the sheriff was speechless.
The policeman opened his eyes at his boss and saw that he was silent. He did not mention the previous questions again and focused on chasing the transport truck in front.
At this time, the truck rushed across an intersection frantically, frightening the pedestrians who were about to cross the road and screaming to escape, while a taxi passing by the intersection was not so lucky.
He was directly hit by the aggressive truck in the middle, rolled and flew nearly ten meters away, and then smashed into a shop facing the street. It made a loud bang and a sound of glass shattering.
Inside the truck, the robber sitting in the driver's seat smiled fiercely, and looked at the taxi flying out and shouted excitedly to his companions: "Jimmy, did you hear it? What a beautiful sound! The cars of the big company are solid!"
Next to him, sitting in the passenger seat. The robber he called Jimmy was a lean man, holding a submachine gun in his hand, looking alertly at the building that kept passing by, as if looking for something.
"Hey, man, did you hear it?"
"Shut up, Harlan. Our opponent is not the useless policeman behind him. The damn guy hasn't come yet, so we can't relax our guard. Hurry up and get rid of these annoying policemen and go to the meeting place." Jimmy retracted his gaze and shouted coldly.
"Hmph! That guy?" Harren snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "If you are talking about Spider-Man, then you don't have to worry at all. Now he is like a mouse crossing the street and doesn't dare to come out at all. The people hate him!"
Harlan's words made Jimmy stunned for a moment, but he did not refute it. After all, this matter is well known, and it is definitely not pleasing to Spider-Man come out at this time.
Seeing Jimmy not speaking, Harren smiled, but while he was speaking, he also observed the rearview mirror with the outskirts of his eyes.
A police car was about to rush up from the right rear side!
Seeing this scene, Harlan grinned and showed a hideous smile. His hands holding the steering wheel suddenly hit the right half a circle, and the truck's huge body also turned to the right.
I thought that I could hit the damn police car so suddenly, but the other party's reaction speed was beyond his expectations.
When the truck's body had just changed, the police car seemed to have had a premonition in advance, and suddenly slowed down and avoided Harlen's sudden blow.
Seeing his attack being dodged, Harren's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he angrily patted the truck's steering wheel, cursing in his mouth: "Damn it! This didn't kill him!"
However, although he cursed like this in his mouth, his hands and feet were not slow. The steering wheel turned around and he stepped on the accelerator suddenly, and the truck ran up again with a roar.
And as Harlen was driving swearingly, in the police car behind him, the leading sheriff and the driving officer looked at each other with lingering fear.
"It was so dangerous just now, your skills are really good." The sheriff said sincerely.
"Thanks."
The policeman nodded. While the truck accelerated, he also increased his speed, staring at the truck in front of him, and the accelerator under his feet instantly stepped to the bottom!
The racing battle between police and gangsters is already accustomed to the citizens of Manhattan because they often see this scene on the streets.
Therefore, except for some timid people hiding in the corner and not daring to go out, those who are bolder will take out their mobile phones or other electronic devices to take a photo.
After all, although this kind of thing is common, it is also a topic that allows them to tease for a while in their spare time.
Soon, the chase between the two sides came to the center from the edge of Manhattan. The cars and people here also became more and more. Seeing this scene, Harlen, who was driving, smiled excitedly.
Jimmy, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked a little bad. He didn't know why the employer set such a course of action.
However, as a professional mercenary, collecting money and doing business is their job, so no matter what the other party’s request, he just needs to act according to the employer’s wishes.
"Run directly, don't worry about anything else!" Looking at the dense crowds and vehicles ahead, Jimmy's eyes flashed with a fierce light and said hideously.
Jimmy's words made Harlen even more excited. He grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, licked the corners of his mouth excitedly, and said frantically: "I can't wait!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his right foot stepped on the accelerator hard, and the truck's engine suddenly burst out with a harsh roar, roaring towards the crowd!
"Oh my God! Run—!"
The heavy roar of the truck made the crowd around them look at each other. When they saw the truck rushing towards them like a wild beast, they were immediately panicked and hurriedly avoiding them.
In the crowd, a child about six or seven years old seemed to be frightened by the truck that rushed over in a crazy way, and stood there blankly.
People nearby fled in a hurry, and there was no time to care about this child who was left alone. So, when they all went to the side, the dull child was left in the middle of the road.
"Do not to escape!"
"Run!"
Around them, some people who had already avoided shouted loudly to the child, but the child seemed to be unaware of it and was still standing in the middle of the road.
Seeing this scene, everyone closed their eyes unbearably. They didn't dare to look on. At this time, they thought of Spider-Man again.
If only he was there...
Unfortunately, there is no if at this time. Our Spider-Man has been banned. He is sitting anxiously in the conference room, looking at the picture on the big screen.
But what surprised him was that the child actually moved when the truck approached quickly!
He stretched out his fleshy little hand, took out an Iron Man mask from his arms, and then put it on his head in a strange way, as if he had brought this helmet, and he gained great power. Under the shocked eyes of everyone, the child spread his hands forward and made a gesture of preparing to catch the truck.
Harlan, who was driving the truck, looked at the little ghost who was overestimating his abilities, smiled fiercely, and drove the truck mercilessly towards the little ghost blocking the road!
"Dong--!"
The huge impact suddenly erupted, and the air was shocked. The people around were stunned for a moment, and then they burst into thunderous cheers!
Harlen, who was driving and Jimmy, who was sitting in the passenger seat, widened his eyes and looked incredibly at the tall and strong man standing next to the child, with a golden cloak!
"Justice will be fulfilled, and sin will sink into the ground!"
