Chapter 363 New York Detective and Stryker's Persuasion Plan and the Attack of the Mutants

It's also been a while since the Spider Lamp was handed over to George Stancy. The idea of ​​the spider lamp was naturally inspired by Li Jie from a superhero movie he had seen in his previous life.

It's a story about some dude who wears a black mask and cape in the dark and is a vigilante in a down-to-earth city called Gotham. Li Jie's idea is good, it is very suitable for Spiderman.

Of course, things like searchlights have been slightly changed. In the original Gotham vigilante story, because the city’s folk customs are simple and honest, as long as the light reflecting the flying bat pattern is shot into the sky, the criminals in this city will surrender obediently.

After entering Arkham Prison, those Gotham criminals will never escape from prison. Because the lights of the flying bats shrouded the sky above the city, it was a mark they would never dare to violate.

But New York is different from Gotham, which is simple and honest. The prisoners here are not as honest as those in Arkham Prison.

In addition, the face of the New York police must also be considered. If there is something that the police cannot solve, the spider lights will be turned on so that the whole New York can see it. Such words are a huge blow to the prestige of the New York police.

So after weighing it over and over again, Li Jie considered making a spider lamp that needs special glasses to see.

But obviously, after Spider-Man showed his favor to Sergeant George last time, although George was more able to accept Spider-Man's statement in his heart, and the two had a tendency to reconcile. But because of the prestige of the police system. George had never actually used a spider lamp.

Of course, it is very likely that the police have not encountered any problems that are too difficult for them to solve.

But this time George can pull down his face and use the spider lamp to summon Spider-Man, so it really proves that something big happened this time, and it is very likely that the police will be very laborious to solve this matter.

When Li Jie was wearing the outfit of the Nightcrawler, he drove the sliding wing to the location Peter mentioned. Spider-Man and George were already there.

This place is exactly the wreckage of Macaulay's villa. Because it is a single-family villa, it is far away from other surrounding villas. This also prevented the fire here from spreading to neighbors.

At the same time, in order to protect privacy, oak trees used as isolation fences are planted around each single-family villa. So when the fire just broke out at the beginning, the surrounding neighbors didn't happen the first time something happened here. At the same time, Daken and Paul were not seen by other neighbors when they fled.

The killing of a New York City Councilman is undoubtedly a very troublesome thing. Now the entire city's upper echelons feel a chill. Although police are not yet entirely sure, Macaulay's death was caused by burning himself to death after a kitchen fire was sparked improperly.

Or is it that someone deliberately set fire to the scene after the murder, deliberately disturbing the sight.

If it was just a simple murder case, or if the identity of the deceased was relatively ordinary and the social relationship was easier to clarify, George would never use a spider lamp. Because solving crimes was his specialty.

But now the dead man is a New York City Councilman. And because of the political stance of this congressman, there are many places involved in this murder case. It is even said that mutants may be involved.

If the person who killed Macaulay was a mutant, then such a case would be much more difficult. It is even very possible that even if the criminal is found, he will not be caught in the end.

Because ordinary police are always powerless to deal with these super criminals. So in this case, the investigation of Macaulay Villa basically ended at night. After the police pulled the isolation belt for the wreckage, they evacuated.

George came here alone and turned on Spider-Man's searchlight. He decided to have a talk with Spider-Man.

But when Peter came here by the light of the searchlight and started discussing the cause of Macaulay's death with George, his spider sense kept vibrating, as if reminding him that he seemed to have forgotten something. That's why Peter contacted Li Jie.

When Li Jie got off the slide wing, and handed over to Peter a piece of equipment that Peter asked him to bring. George gave Li Jie a strange look. "I didn't expect that you really have such a good relationship as the outside rumors say."

"A good man also needs helpers." Li Jie just smiled at this. "What's going on here, Sheriff?" George was wearing a police uniform, so Li Jie simply called him Sheriff.

"Member McCauley was killed. He was a radical anti-mutant radical. So my bold guess is that he didn't die in a fire, but in a deliberate murder. And the person who killed him was Mutants." George glanced at Li Jie, he had a better impression of Nightcrawler than Spider-Man.

Because Nightcrawler always deals with criminals who are difficult for the police to intervene or who know that they are committing crimes, but suffer from lack of evidence and cannot arrest criminals.

Although what the Nightcrawler did was silent on the surface, many police officers gave their thumbs up in private. Because in order to arrest certain criminals, their comrades died or were maimed. However, after finally arresting the criminal, due to insufficient evidence, he could not be convicted during the court trial.

This made many of George's colleagues, including George himself, resentful.

"Because if the criminal involved in this incident involves a mutant, then the police may not have enough power to arrest this super criminal. So I would like to invite Spider-Man. Of course, if you are willing to help, I would also like to Nightcrawler, please. Give us a little strength support when necessary."

What George said was very clear, he was afraid that the mutant criminals would not be caught by then. So I ask you two to be your helpers.

But it was obvious that Spider-Man was not preparing for simple labor, so he asked Li Jie to bring the equipment. It's an instrument the size of a briefcase.

It opens up to look a bit like a laptop. In fact, this is a portable X-gene checker. It is another product in the Osborne Group's technology library that is not on the shelves.

X gene inspection equipment is not uncommon in this world. Some companies that produce large security equipment have this equipment. Osborne Group was the first to produce this portable X gene detector, focusing on differentiated competition.

So this product has a completely different setting from other similar products. Not only is it lighter and more convenient to carry, but also its detection accuracy is much higher than similar products. Of course, the result of this is that the manufacturing cost has risen, resulting in a high price.

After a period of sales, the sales volume was not satisfactory, and then it was removed from the shelves, and the production line also stopped producing this equipment. Now, except for some stocks and a small number of products that have been sold, it is difficult to see this kind of equipment on the market.

"What do you want to use these things for?" Li Jie couldn't help asking as he watched Spider-Man start fiddling with this device.

"Didn't it mean that the murderer might be a mutant? Let me check to see if there are any traces of a mutant." Peter snapped his fingers, and seemed ready to start work.

"Nightcrawler, help me collect some samples from the surrounding area to see if there is anything suspicious."

Because of his spider sense, Peter always felt that things were not that simple. And Li Jie also trusted Peter's intuition very much, because his intuition almost never missed it.

And if this incident was really done by mutants, then Li Jie felt that it was necessary for him to remind Professor Charles that he had to take precautions recently and be careful that someone would harm their school.

So the two superheroes in New York City, at this moment, seemed to be the police officers of the Criminal Investigation and Forensics Section, and began to gradually investigate and search in the ruins of Macaulay's house.

But George, who was just looking for a thug, was a little dumbfounded. What are these two playing? New York detectives?

……………………

In Washington, more than 300 kilometers away from New York, Stryker had already stepped off his plane. He was rushing to meet with three bigwig-level members of Congress. He's going to try hard to convince Congress to pass the mutant bill.

The place to meet with members of Congress is in the box of a private club in Washington. As soon as Stryker walked into the box and saw the three members of Congress, he began his speech without any pleasantries.

"Gentlemen, I think you already know about the death of Congressman Macaulay. Although the police have not fully announced the cause of his death, I think everyone here has their own channels to know the special nature of Macaulay's death this time. Sex. Mutants did it! And they could kill a city councilor who opposed them today." Stryker looked around at everyone present.

"Then a congressman could be killed tomorrow. We don't have time to hesitate. Gentlemen, I need you to pass Mr. Macaulay's Mutant Management Act, or even call an emergency meeting for it. It's up to us time is limited!"

Stryker's voice was deafening. The three bigwig-level members of Congress looked at each other a few times, and they would not be easily persuaded. But today, what Stryker said might make sense. What the mutants did did go a little too far!

………………………

In the secret base of Weapon X more than a thousand kilometers away from New York. A fully stealthy Blackbird fighter landed slowly. Qin has already driven the Blackbird fighter plane to the base hidden in the mountains that Charles found.

As the captain of this operation, Cyclops Scott has already begun to give orders to his team members. "Storm, we need some storms as cover. Colossus will rely on you to attack for a while. Xuanyin will disturb our enemies later!"

Scott is calling his team members one by one. "Cuckoo, use your avatar to confuse the enemy later. Blink will rely on you to use your shuttle ability to quickly find the location of the illusion master later. Qin, you stay in the fighter jet to support our retreat at any time."

"And I will provide you with enough firepower." Scott pointed to his glasses. He seemed to assign tasks to everyone, but he only forgot one person. That's Wolverine Logan.

Because Logan's task is probably the worst to assign. He's in a state of rage right now. Someone used his son to kill a congressman, and maybe even provoke a bigger incident. And the guy who made his son's hands covered in blood is inside!

It's best not to let me find you, or I'll tear you apart with my own hands!
