Chapter 62 The Fastest Way to Get Rid of Guilt in the World
At the same time, in downtown New York City, dozens of kilometers away from Xia Shang's villa, Billy and his four companions were using their personal connections to try their best to find the girl who was released. Only by finding her could they figure out what the motherland was doing.
Soon Billy learned from a police friend that there was a nail salon owner named Meritz who had been brutally murdered. His body was horrible and bloody.
So Billy and his companions hurried to the nail salon to check the situation.
Just as Billy was about to repeat his old trick and use his invalid federal agent's card to get information from the police, he happened to see the locomotive appear at the door of the toilet. Billy said nothing and immediately signaled Frankie and his companions to leave.
"It is basically certain that the person was killed by that girl." Billy returned to his car and said to the breast milk and his companions.
"We must find her before the train."
At this time, Frankie deduced from the ticket found in Kimiko's room that Meritz must be the smuggler who smuggled Kimiko to the United States. Kimiko should now be looking for a way home, so she will only go to one place, that is, New York Station.
Facts have proved.
Frankie's inference was completely correct. He heard familiar music in a technology application store in the station. This music had been played in Kimiko's room.
So he walked into the technology goods store carefully and found Kimiko under the counter.
Before Frankie came, they were afraid that Kimiko would suddenly hurt people, so they prepared a can of high-concentration fluorothane in advance. Once this gas is absorbed by the human body, it can cause a person to fall into a coma in a short time.
But Frankie didn't want to do this. He told Kimiko about his past.
He left his mother when he was a child. He tried to escape from his father many times, but he never succeeded. "So I understand what it feels like to long to go home." As he spoke, tears welled up in Frankie's eyes.
"Look? I know your secret. You are not a bad person. You are just scared." Frankie gently stretched out his right hand to Kimiko, "Let me help you."
However, at this moment, the music in the store suddenly stopped, and Kimiko became manic again. She suddenly rushed out, pushed down the table, and fled into the crowd at the station.
Seeing this, Frankie hurried out of the store. He looked around and found that he had lost Kimiko.
After Billy and others arrived, when Breast Milk heard that Frankie did not use high-concentration fluorothane, she was immediately very angry.
In the Mallory incident that year, it was because Frankie, who was responsible for tracking, let the lamplighter go without authorization, that the grandson of the operation commander Mallory was burned to death by the lamplighter. The consequences of the Mallory incident were extremely serious. After the incident, the FBI fired the relevant personnel, including Billy, Frankie and others.
And it was at that time that the FBI directly issued a strict ban on investigating superhumans.
"You actually made such a stupid mistake again. I feel like I'm wasting my saliva by scolding you. Even Huey, that damn white nerd, is more professional than you..." It must be said that the black man does have some rap talent. At least when he scolded Frankie, he had a good sense of rhythm.
Huey on the side was confused. What does this have to do with him?
"Fuck it, I'm not going to do it anymore."
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Billy had no choice but to stand up and stop the quarrel between the two.
Fortunately, they soon found the girl on the platform.
But they were a step late after all. The locomotive found her in advance. The locomotive was ready to take Kimiko away, and Kimiko kept resisting.
Seeing the locomotive grab Kimiko's head and smash it against the wall frantically.
At this time, Frankie was quick-witted and shouted to the passengers at the station: "Look, that's the superhero locomotive, he's there."
As soon as the voice fell, it attracted a large number of passengers waiting for the train.
The locomotive had no choice but to let go of the girl temporarily and greeted everyone with a smile.
Kimiko seized the opportunity and escaped immediately. When Billy and his friends found the girl again, Frankie wanted to go forward to comfort her. Kimiko bared her teeth and rushed towards Frankie. Fortunately, Billy threw the halothane bomb without hesitation, and the two brainless guys were completely stunned.
On the other side.
The locomotive already knew that someone had leaked the secret, and the only person who knew about the dungeon, besides him and Homelander, was the Claw Girl.
…………
The next day, Xia Shang just walked into the Water Building and noticed that the atmosphere in the building was not right.
"Jervis, the vice president asked you to come over." Ashley walked towards Xia Shang with a gloomy face. Obviously, she had learned about the plane crash. Homelander and Queen Maeve did not succeed in saving the plane.
This made all her previous preparations in vain.
"Okay."
Xia Shang knew what was going on without Ashley saying anything.
After that, he followed Ashley to the office of Vice President Water.
As soon as she entered, she saw Madeline pressing her temples. To be honest, she didn't expect the Homelander to fail.
"Sit anywhere."
"Tell me, do you have any good suggestions about this matter?"
Xia Shang did not speak, but Ashley spoke up: "I think we need to suppress this matter as soon as possible. After all, in the eyes of the masses, the motherland is an omnipotent existence. How could he not be able to save a plane? So we need to weaken the presence of the motherland as soon as possible, or we can say that the motherland arrived at the scene after the plane crashed, so it was too late to rescue."
Madeline nodded in satisfaction with Ashley's proposal.
After Ashley finished speaking, she looked at Xia Shang proudly.
Seeing Xia Shang said nothing.
Madeline asked him what he thought: "What do you think about this?"
"If I were a native of my country, I would definitely say that this tragedy could have been avoided. If the North American Aerospace Defense Department had considered superheroes earlier, I could have saved them in time before they were killed, instead of just a few minutes late like now, which led to this tragedy in human history.
I feel deeply sad about this, but if they had agreed to Walter's military plan earlier and allowed superheroes to enter the military defense system, I think this tragedy would not have happened, and similar incidents would not have happened in the future."
Xia Shang's speech made Madeline look satisfied and even a little surprised.
"You know, the fastest way to get rid of guilt in the world is to throw the responsibility to others and let them bear the anger of the masses." Xia Shang crossed his fingers on his chest and then said with a smile.
