Chapter 83 Captain America: I will not compete with Lin En for the Illuminati!
By the balcony.
Listening to Joey's excited tone, Lynn said he understood, then hung up the phone.
He glanced at the clear picture of Steve Rogers that Joey had sent back on his phone.
Lynn began to ponder.
Lynn wasn't surprised by Captain America's "resurrection."
He had long known that Captain America hadn't truly died, but he hadn't expected S.H.I.E.L.D. to thaw Captain America in Brooklyn.
Recalling what Natasha had told him, that Nick Fury's desired Avengers hadn't yet been formed, while he had already created the Illuminati.
Lynn instantly knew what Nick Fury, that bald head, was planning. After a moment's thought, Lynn dialed James Duke's number.
Well, his current persona was HYDRA, so such a big matter naturally needed to be reported.
As the call connected, Lynn immediately whispered, "Director, I received accurate intelligence: Captain America, who should have died seventy years ago, has been resurrected!"
At James Duke's home.
James Duke, who had been leisurely watching TV on the sofa, sprang up from the sofa after hearing Lynn's report.
"What did you say?! Steve Rogers is resurrected?! Didn't he die seventy years ago?! Damn it, how is this possible? What exactly happened?!"
Listening to James Duke's extremely serious tone, Lynnrecounted the events: "Director, I suspect S.H.I.E.L.D.found Steve Rogers long ago and has been conducting secret resurrection experiments on him!"
Hearing Lynn's report, James Duke's brows furrowed.
After thinking for a few seconds, James Duke said, "Don't make any moves for now. I'll contact the others!"
"Understood!"
Hearing James Duke say that, Lynn nodded.
After hanging up the phone, Lynn chuckled and turned to look into the house.
At this moment, Aunt Helen had already prepared a sumptuous dinner, and Gwen was waving to him through the window.
Lynn smiled and walked into the room.
Lynn could not care about Steve Rogers, but James Dukecould not afford not to care.
After all, that was Steve Rogers!
He frowned and dialed Alexander Pierce's number.
Listening to James Duke's concerns, Pierce chuckled, "Don't worry, James Duke, it's not seventy years ago anymore."
"An old relic abandoned by the times can't cause much trouble, besides, Nick Fury will definitely have him join S.H.I.E.L.D. At that time, who can say whether he's working for S.H.I.E.L.D. or for us?"
"However, Lynn's control over New York is somewhat beyond my expectation. I just received the news of Steve's awakening, but he already knew about it beforehand."
Hearing Pierce say that, James Duke felt a little relieved.
However, hearing Pierce mention Lynn, James Duke was filled with pride.
After all, Lynn was someone he had painstakingly recruited into HYDRA himself!
Captain America's thawing and resurrection from the ice did not cause too much of a stir.
After all, this matter was only known to a small circle of people.
Nothing major happened in the days after his birthday, except for James Duke talking to him for a long time.
Only Gwen finally shed her girl status.
In Lynn's room, in the early morning.
Looking at Gwen, who was still sound asleep on his chest, Lynn carefully placed her arm under the covers.
Yesterday, Gwen used the excuse of familiarizing herself with her future university to come to Lynn's place to sleep, and then late at night, she cosplayed as a medieval female knight, wanting to drain Lynn dry.
Her only miscalculation was that even though she had become Spider-Woman and her physical qualities in all aspects had been enhanced, she was still no match for Lynn.
[Gwen Stacy's favorability +10, gained 1000 experience points!]
Seeing the system's prompt, a hint of excitement appeared in Lynn's heart.
Indeed, just like Barbara before, Gwen's favorability also reached 10 points through this incident.
And a favorability of 10 points grants a daily bonus, meaning he could receive 1000 experience points from Gwen every day.
This way, his strength would surge!
Looking at Gwen, who was now sound asleep but had been teary-eyed last night, Lynn closed the system and gently tapped her nose.
"Mmm."
Gradually opening her hazy, sleepy eyes, Gwensubconsciously raised her hand and rubbed them.
When she saw Lynn looking at her dotingly, Gwensuddenly recalled what had happened last night.
"Hehe..."
She pounced on Lynn, kissed him, and then hugged him, giggling.
"What are you laughing at?"
Looking at Gwen, who was constantly giggling foolishly in his arms, Lynn also asked with a smile.
"Because I finally got what I wanted! You don't know how long I've waited for this day. You know, many girls in school, at 14, already..."
At this point, Gwen lifted the blanket, glanced at the sheets, and then raised her arm to Lynn, saying, "Lynn, carry me to bathe."
Looking at Gwen, who was acting coquettishly, Lynn got up and then carried Gwen towards the bathroom.
Clear water flowed over Lynn's broad back.
Looking at the well-defined muscles in front of her, Gwensecretly swallowed, then smiled at Lynn and said, "Let me help you scrub!"
As steam continuously rose, the ceiling also began to drip water.
After breakfast, Lynn and Gwen cuddled for a while before driving to the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.
In the office.
"What has Steve Rogers been doing lately?"
After handling some documents, Lynn looked at Barbaraand asked.
"He's still getting used to this World. Every day he either takes the subway to the Captain America exhibition Hallor sits in a coffee shop in Times Square to draw."
"More often, he'll sit by the Hudson River in a daze, but there are quite a few people secretly protecting him!"
Hearing Barbara say that, Lynn put down his pen and smiled, "Protection? It should be S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents monitoring him!"
"After all, for someone who's been frozen for seventy years, even if he's the famous Captain America, that guy Nick Fury wouldn't be at ease!"
Seeing Lynn stand up, Barbara asked curiously, "Boss, are you going to see Steve Rogers?"
Seeing Lynn nod, Barbara immediately took out several collector's edition Captain America cards and said, "These aren't mine, boss, Joey asked me to give them to you."
"She's a fan of Captain America and knows you'll definitely go see him, so she asked me to give you the cards, hoping you can have Steve sign them!"
Looking at the cards Barbara handed over, Lynn chuckled, then said, "Tell Joey, I'll have a chance to let her meet Captain America himself."
After speaking, Lynn left the office.
Lynn going to see Steve Rogers wasn't a whim, but at James Duke's request.
Although Alexander Pierce said that S.H.I.E.L.D. would recruit Captain America and make him effectively work for HYDRA.
But that was Captain America after all, how could James Duke be at ease?
He couldn't recruit him into the New York FBI, nor could he eliminate him under S.H.I.E.L.D.'s nose.
So James Duke thought for a long time and decided to have Lynn contact Steve Rogers.
Although the FBI couldn't compete with S.H.I.E.L.D. for Captain America, Lynn's Illuminati could.
As long as Steve Rogers joined the Illuminati, then under Lynn's surveillance, he wouldn't have to worry about Steve Rogers discovering anything.
In a coffee shop near Times Square, Manhattan.
Sitting in a chair, Steve Rogers held a pencil, sketching the building in front of him.
"Are you also here waiting for Iron Man?"
Bringing over the coffee Steve ordered, the waitress looked at the tall, handsome man with a melancholic aura in front of her and asked with a smile.
"What?"
Facing the woman's question, Steve subconsciously looked up; he didn't know what Iron Man was.
"Iron Man doesn't fly through here in his armor every day. If you want to see the armor with your own eyes, it's best to wait until Monday. Every Monday he goes to Stark Tower."
"Stark Tower?"
Hearing the familiar surname, Steve Rogers asked, "Was it built by Howard Stark?"
Thinking that Steve in front of her was deliberately playing dumb, the waitress gave him a smile and then turned to leave.
Watching her leave, Steve thought he had said something wrong again, so he continued to sketch the building in front of him in his notebook.
Since he woke up, such misunderstandings happened frequently.
"It's not that you said something wrong; it's that she thinks you're deliberately trying to flirt. When she comes back, she might ask you to go to the movies."
Hearing a male voice beside him, Steve subconsciously looked up.
When he saw the handsome young man in front of him holding a coffee and smiling at him, Steve nodded in acknowledgement.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard the young man continue, "Do you mind if I sit here?"
"Of course not."
Facing Lynn's question, Steve made a gesture to invite him.
"Thank you."
Sitting in the chair and taking a sip of his coffee, Lynnsmiled, "Actually, this era is quite good, isn't it? Although it might be a bit unfamiliar to you."
"But compared to seventy years ago, this era has undergone tremendous changes in terms of food, technology, medical care, and entertainment."
Hearing Lynn say that, Steve's eyes changed instantly, and he looked at Lynn with full vigilance.
"Who are you?"
Seeing Steve's vigilance, Lynn smiled, "Don't be nervous. Let me introduce myself, Lynn Hall, Deputy Director of the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation."
"I've been watching you for many days. In fact, ever since you burst out of the S.H.I.E.L.D. treatment room in Brooklyn, I noticed you."
At this point, Lynn extended his hand with a smile: "Welcome back, Mr. Steve Rogers."
Sensing that the young man in front of him had no ill intent, Steve also extended his hand and shook Lynn's.
Of course, he knew about the FBI organization.
The FBI was first established in 1908, a detective agency commissioned by the then President to the Attorney General. It was named the Bureau of Investigation in May 1909, and officially changed to the Federal Bureau of Investigation in 1935.
And Steve Rogers crashed his plane into the glacier in 1945, so he knew about the FBI.
Not far away.
"Officer, Lynn Hall of the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation is currently speaking with Captain America. Do you need to intervene?"
Listening to the Agent's report, Maria Hill said, "No need to intervene."
"Received!"
Hearing Hill's instruction, the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent continued to drink his coffee.
Inside S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Lynn Hall has officially made contact with Captain America. Do you think he will directly recruit Steve Rogers?"
Facing Hill's question, Nick Fury shook his head: "Probably not. Lynn is likely just trying to make contact with him for now."
"Lynn will only extend an invitation once Steve is completely accustomed to this era."
"After all, from the time he joined the FBI until now, judging by all the cases he's handled, he never does anything unprepared."
Putting down the pen in his hand, Nick Fury handed the document to Hill: "Archive it. It won't be entered into the S.H.I.E.L.D. computer system. Whether it's the Illuminatior the Avengers, their primary goal should be to protect the safety of this World!"
Taking the document from Nick Fury's hand, Hill nodded and then turned to leave.
It wasn't until Maria Hill left that Nick Fury looked at another document.
The content of the document was a department he had ordered to be named the Dark Matter Research Base.
Manhattan.
"The people from S.H.I.E.L.D. don't mean any harm; they're just worried about what might happen to me in this unfamiliar World."
At this point, Steve chuckled self-deprecatingly: "After all, an old guy who's been asleep for nearly seventy years and can't keep up with the times, no one knows what he might do."
Facing Steve Rogers's self-deprecation, Lynn, however, said seriously: "The Federal Bureau of Investigation's duty is to protect the safety of this country, but you already accomplished that in 1945."
"In the hearts of the people, you will always be a legendary hero of this country."
"I think, even if another seventy years pass, people will not forget you."
At this point, Lynn smiled: "Haven't you already visited the exhibition Hall that the country specially created for you? So you should know that what I'm saying is true."
Hearing Lynn say this, Steve recalled the pictures of his teammates who had fought alongside him and his close friend Bucky in the exhibition Hall, and a hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes.
"Regardless, Captain Rogers, welcome back."
Standing up and extending his hand to Steve, Lynnsmiled: "If you have any needs, or encounter any problems, you can always find me."
Looking at the name card Lynn handed over, Steve stood up, took it, and shook Lynn's hand: "Thank you."
"You're welcome, after all, you've dedicated everything to this country!"
With that, Lynn bid farewell.
Watching Lynn leave, Steve Rogers looked at the business card in his hand, then tucked it into his notebook.
"Um, do you know Mr. Lynn Hall?"
The waitress, who had changed into her clothes and was about to go off duty to meet Steve, curiously asked Steveafter seeing Lynn leave.
"Is he very famous?"
"Of course, that's Lynn Hall, he's a hero of this country!"
Seeing Steve's puzzled look, the waitress immediately began to introduce him.
Both James Duke and Nick Fury wanted Steve to join the Illuminati.
But Lynn did not choose to recruit him directly.
After all, it was their first meeting, especially before Steve Rogers had become familiar with this World.
If he were to directly propose that he join the Illuminati, it would be too rash.
In fact, Lynn was also preparing to have Steve join the Illuminati.
After all, once he joined the Illuminati, Lynn would be able to logically sell HYDRA in the future.
Mid-July, inside Lynn's office.
Since becoming Deputy Director, Lynn's workload had increased.
Although Lynn generally didn't have to go out on field missions, his desk was piled with many documents that required his approval.
Expense reports from the action team, case archiving, documents issued by the Department of Justice, and even matters concerning the training department required Lynn's management.
That old guy, James Duke, was becoming more and more idle.
"Boss, have some coffee."
Placing the brewed coffee on Lynn's desk, Barbarasmiled: "You've been handling the training department's matters all morning, it's time to take a break!"
Hearing Barbara's words, Lynn put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, and said: "The supervisors of the training department are a bunch of idiots. It's bad enough that their training for new recruits' various abilities isn't great, but they actually let them approach those drug lords before investigating thoroughly."
"Twenty-three new recruits, thirteen of them died before they even officially started."
Seeing Lynn leaning back in his chair, Barbara stepped forward and gently massaged Lynn's head: "Such heavy losses? Boss, how do you plan to deal with that guy?"
"The Department of Justice stepped in to save him, but he probably won't be able to hold any official position in any government organization for the rest of his life."
Lynn pulled Barbara's hand, drawing her onto him, gently squeezed her perky butt, then pressed her down under the desk.
Kneeling before Lynn, Barbara skillfully unzipped his pants and greeted Little Lynn.
It must be said that ever since she followed Lynn, Barbara's oral skills had become increasingly adept.
"Phew."
The fatigue of the entire morning slowly dissipated, and Lynn opened his system to check.
Name: Lynn Hall
Intelligence: 3

Since Gwen started gifting 1000 experience points daily, in one month, thirty thousand experience points allowed him to upgrade all his superhuman abilities, naturally increasing his strength several times over.
After Super Strength was upgraded to LV5, his Strength attribute also became 6, and with the enhancement of Resilient Body on his physique, his Speed also became 3.
Oh, Resilient Body, this superhuman ability, was a new gifted skill obtained from Gwen this morning, which could comprehensively improve his physical fitness.
After Barbara finished cleaning up, she asked with a smile: "How's your father doing recently?"
"He was specially hired by Professor X to be a Doctor at the Mutant Academy."
Hearing Lynn's question, Barbara said with a smile: "I never thought that after being a Doctor for the Brotherhood of Mutants in the black market for half his life, he would now transform into a Doctor at the Mutant Academy."
"But that's good too, it saves my father from always having nothing to do."
As the two were talking, Lynn's phone suddenly rang.
He picked up the phone and glanced at it, realizing it was Gwen calling.
As soon as Lynn answered the phone, he heard Gwen say with a hint of a sob: "Lynn, something happened, Dad was shot and sent to the hospital, he's still undergoing surgery."
Hearing Gwen's words, Lynn instantly stood up from his chair.
After confirming the hospital address, Lynn immediately rushed towards the hospital.
The car sped along the road, and Lynn reached the hospital in less than twelve minutes for what should have been a thirty-minute drive.
He arrived at the operating room on the third floor, where the surgery was still in progress.
Several police Officers stood guard there, while Gwen, with red eyes, sat with Aunt Helen.
Upon seeing Lynn arrive, Gwen immediately threw herself into Lynn's arms.
Gently comforting Gwen, who was crying out of worry, Lynn looked at one of the sergeants and said: "Chris, what exactly happened? How did Uncle George get shot?"
Although Lynn's expression was calm, his gaze was extremely cold.
The aura he exuded even made Chris, the veteran sergeant, instinctively take a step back.
"Don't worry, Lynn, George will be fine."
Stepping forward and gently patting Lynn's arm, Aunt Helen comforted him.
The calmer Lynn was, the more it indicated how furious he was at that moment.
As Helen, who had raised him since he was six, naturally knew how terrifying Lynn was in this state.
Just like when Gwen was bullied by older students when she was little, and Lynn rushed to the school.
"George was only shot in the left shoulder, there's no danger to his life." Helen said softly, pulling Lynn to sit down.
Only after hearing that Uncle George was not in life-threatening danger did Lynn finally relax.
Family had always been Lynn's inverse scale; whoever harmed his family would face Lynn's most brutal retaliation!
"Sergeant Chris, what exactly happened?"
Facing Lynn's inquiry once more, Sergeant Chris began: "This morning we received a report that a crashed helicopter was found by the Hudson River."
"When we arrived at the scene, we found that someone had killed the helicopter pilot and passengers."
"Since the identity of the passengers in the helicopter was very important—they were the leaders of a money laundering organization we had been tracking—the Director personally led a team to apprehend the suspect."
"As a result, when we found the suspect, a shootout occurred, and the Director was shot in the left shoulder!"
Hearing Sergeant Chris's words, Lynn frowned: "Where's the suspect?"
"Although we killed the suspect's accomplice, he was shot and escaped under the cover of his accomplice."
"We suspect this person's identity is also unusual, because the police system has no information on the suspect whatsoever!"
Facing Sergeant Chris's explanation, Lynn comforted Gwen while preparing to call Alice on his phone.
Before the call could connect, the operating room door opened.
Seeing the Doctor walk out, Lynn immediately stood up and walked forward: "Doctor, how is Uncle Georgedoing?"
Facing Lynn's question, the Doctor said: "Don't worry, Mr. Hall, the bullet in Director George's left shoulder has been removed, and there is no danger to his life."
"He just needs a few months of rest. He's still under anesthesia, and he should wake up in about an hour."
Hearing the Doctor's words, Lynn's hanging heart finally settled.
After helping the Doctor move Uncle George to a private room, Lynn stood by the bed and said to Sergeant Chris: "You all can go back first, Aunt Helen and I will stay here."
"After you go back, send me a sketch of the criminal suspect."
Hearing Lynn say this, Sergeant Chris nodded.
He glanced at the unconscious George Stacy and then left with his men.
After the police left, Lynn took out his phone and made a call: "Alice, bring a few brothers to the hospital."
Hanging up the phone, Lynn looked at the worried Gwenand gently comforted her.
By the time Alice arrived with her people from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, George Stacy had not yet woken up.
"This is a photo of the criminal, Alice. I don't care what method you use, even if you have to dig three feet deep, you must find this person for me!"
Looking at the photo Lynn sent, Alice immediately nodded: "Yes, Boss!"
"Also, leave a few people to guard outside the ward to prevent retaliation from the criminal's accomplices."
Saying that, Lynn looked at Helen: "Aunt Helen, the members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's action team will be with you these next few days."
"Lynn, are you saying the criminal who shot my dad will retaliate?"
Facing Gwen's question, Lynn shook his head: "I'm not sure, but according to Sergeant Chris, that criminal's identity should be unusual."
"There's no information about him in the police system, and he's also connected to the largest money laundering organization in the area, so there should be a more powerful criminal organization behind the criminal."
"Gwen, until I thoroughly investigate this matter and deal with these people, the best way is to have the action team protect you all!"
Understanding Lynn's words, Gwen nodded: "Don't worry, I'll stay with Mom during this time."
As they were talking, Uncle George on the hospital bed gradually woke up.
Seeing Uncle George open his eyes, Lynn and the others immediately gathered around with concern.
After regaining consciousness, looking at his family whose eyes were filled with worry, George Stacy said with a smile: "Don't worry, I just accidentally got bitten by a bullet."
Watching Uncle George struggle to sit up, Lynn took out a pillow and placed it at the head of the bed, then helped him sit up.
Receiving Lynn's gaze, Alice turned and left.
From Lynn's calm tone, she could hear the towering rage!
As Lynn's order was given, the entire New York Federal Bureau of Investigation immediately sprang into action.
Satellites began a comprehensive search for the suspect's whereabouts, and surveillance footage from every corner of the city was retrieved.
All Agents and field operatives without current assignments within the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation began a thorough search of pharmacies and clinics.
Even many FBI informants started to become active.
As the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation began its large-scale investigation, various forces were alarmed.
Many people were trying to find out what had happened, and even gang members simultaneously retreated, fearing being targeted by the FBI.
After all, it hadn't been long since the New York FBI had made those large-scale arrests!
"Have you found out exactly what happened?"
Inside Hells Kitchen.
Kingpin asked, sitting in his chair.
"Huh?"
Facing Kingpin's question, Bullseye, who was twirling a dagger, looked up with a somewhat bewildered expression.
The secretary, on the other hand, immediately replied, "Boss, I heard that George Stacy was shot, so Mr. Lynn Hall ordered a city-wide manhunt for the criminal!"
Seeing that Kingpin wasn't asking him, Bullseye lowered his head again and continued playing with his dagger.
Kingpin, however, after hearing the secretary's report, thought for a few seconds before saying, "Notify our people in the New York underground to dig out the person Mr. Hall is looking for!"
"Why are we helping him?"
Bullseye, looking up again, asked Kingpin with some confusion, "Boss, why are we helping Lynn Hall? He's an official organization, and we're a gang. Once our people move, he might misunderstand and think we're making a big move, then turn his guns on us. That would be a huge loss!"
Listening to Bullseye's thoughtless words, Kingpin looked at the secretary and said, "Go do it."
"Yes, Boss."
Seeing that Kingpin wasn't listening to his advice, Bullseye lowered his head and pouted.
The Boss always said he wasn't smart, but in his opinion, the Boss would sooner or later suffer a great loss because of Lynn Hall.
After all, Lynn was a very formidable guy!
As the New York underground forces also moved out, all the pharmacies and clinics in the city's black market were swept clean.
Even the police cooperating with the FBI were shocked by the actions of the city's gang members.
They hadn't expected that a simple order from Lynn could make those arrogant gang members cooperate!
Clues emerged in just half an hour.
After receiving the message from Alice, Lynn told Uncle George to rest assured, then drove back to the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Inside the New York S.H.I.E.L.D. office.
"This is Lynn Hall's ability. His words can not only mobilize all official organizations, but even the New Yorkunderground forces voluntarily come to help."
Hearing Nick Fury's words, Steve, who was reading Illuminati files, looked up, "Are you saying Lynn Hall has connections with those gangs?"
Steve still had a good impression of Lynn Hall.
Whether it was the first impression Lynn left on him during their first meeting, or the female waitress praising Lynn as an idol.
Or the various deeds of Lynn he had investigated after returning.
He believed Lynn was a righteous, kind, and responsible person.
So he somewhat disbelieved Nick Fury's words.
Unless Nick Fury knew something he didn't.
"It's not that Lynn Hall has connections with New York's gangs, but it must be admitted that Lynn Hall is too young right now."
Looking at Steve, Nick Fury said, "Although I also believe in Lynn's character, youth is always easily deceived."
"Especially since he is the Deputy Director of the New York FBI and also founded the Illuminati."
"Such a person will be sought after by all forces, so he needs a guide who can help him at critical moments."
Hearing Nick Fury say this, Steve remained silent.
Someone who, having just turned 25, became the Deputy Director of the New York FBI without relying on background—would such a person be easily deceived?
Steve clearly understood Nick Fury's subtext: he wanted him to join the Illuminati.
If he could become Lynn Hall's guide, then perhaps he could control the Illuminati and make it obey S.H.I.E.L.D.'s orders.
But Steve didn't want to do that. He had learned about the Illuminati and naturally knew that everything the Illuminati did was to protect the people of New York.
Such an organization was good and didn't need to obey any organization's orders, otherwise the Illuminati would sooner or later become a weapon for some people to seize power.
"Don't worry, I'm not that despicable. It's just that the Illuminati truly needs our supervision!"
Hearing Nick Fury say this, Steve stood up and said, "Although I haven't fully integrated into this World and don't know what this World is like."
"But I am very glad that after I woke up, I know that this country has people like Lynn Hall."
"This proves that my act of crashing the plane into the glacier back then was correct!"
After expressing his views, Steve Rogers turned and left.
Inside the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.
"Boss, that criminal, after being shot, would definitely go to a clinic or pharmacy to buy medicine for gun wounds."
"So we questioned all the small clinics and pharmacies in the city, and found that the culprit had undergone surgery at a black market clinic."
"According to the black market Doctor, after he finished the surgery, he also stole the clinic Doctor's phone."
Saying that, Joey pointed to the information on the large screen and said, "We tracked that Doctor's phone technically and found that after he stole the phone, he dialed a landline number."
"Alice has already taken people to the landline address, and there should be some Gains!"
Hearing Joey say this, Lynn asked, "Have you found the criminal's identity information?"
"No!"
Facing Lynn's question, Joey shook his head and said, "I used the photo to compare it in the global database, but unfortunately, I couldn't find his information."
As the two were talking, they saw Alice escorting in a black man with gunshot wounds to both legs.
"Boss, when we arrived at the address Joey provided, we found this guy trying to escape through the back door. After seeing us, he still wanted to shoot back, but we shot him in both legs!"
"If it weren't for keeping him alive, we would have shot him dead on the spot!"
Looking at the trembling black man, Lynn directly had Alice take him to the interrogation room.
Inside the interrogation room.
"FUXX, you should be sending me to the hospital right now, not interrogating me!"
Pinned to the interrogation chair, the black man roared at Lynn, "Even if I'm a criminal, I still have human rights, and besides, you don't have any evidence of my crime."
Hearing the black man's roar, Lynn pressed his head down hard onto the interrogation table.
Listening to the guy's screams, Lynn placed a photo of the criminal who injured Uncle George in front of him: "Where is this guy?"
The moment he saw the photo, the black man's pupils visibly constricted.
"I don't know him, you've got the wrong person, FUXX, I'm a U.S. citizen, I need treatment, you can't do this to me!"
"Playing tough?"
Listening to the black man's roar, Lynn's expression turned cold.
"Boss, hand him over to me!"
Looking at the black man's stubborn demeanor, Alicestepped forward and said.
"No need, I'll have a good time with this black man!"
Saying that, Lynn took out a dagger from his waist.
"You damn it, what do you want to do?"
The moment he saw the dagger, the black man supported his body, constantly trying to shrink back.
But the fixed chair in the interrogation room left him with nowhere to hide, and Lynn even directly pressed his hand onto the table.
Seeing this, Alice turned and led the others out of the interrogation room.
As for the word "black man" their Boss just used, Aliceand the others completely pretended not to hear it.
The FBI wasn't without black Agents, but there wasn't a single black Agent among the Boss's true confidants!
"Ah!!!"
Standing at the interrogation room door, hearing the painful screams coming from inside.
One of the subordinates looked at Alice and said, "Alice, why are we out here? I'd love to learn the Boss's interrogation techniques too."
"Maybe I can use them later."
Hearing her subordinate's words, Alice raised an eyebrow, "What, you want to improve?"
"Who doesn't want to improve? I'm already S14, and the Boss is now Deputy Director, the supervisor position is vacant. If it weren't for you guys just becoming assistant supervisors, maybe one of you could fill it now."
"But I guess it'll be soon, they can't just parachute a supervisor from headquarters, right? Then..."
Before he could finish speaking, intense screams once again erupted from the interrogation room.
Hearing the screams rise several octaves, Alice walked outside.
"Where are you going?"
"Medical room, to get adrenaline. Clearly, the Boss is extremely angry right now."
After saying that, Alice quickly left.
Not long after, when Alice returned to the outside of the interrogation room, she saw Lynn open the door.
Seeing this, Alice immediately handed over the adrenaline, and then the interrogation room door was closed again!
Seeing this, the subordinate gave Alice a thumbs up: "How did you know the Boss would need adrenaline?"
"How long have I been with the Boss? You guys, you need to learn more!"
A few minutes later, when the interrogation room door opened, Lynn shook the blood from his hands, then said to Alice, "Clean it up, then get ready. We're heading to Ohio in ten minutes!"
"Yes!"
Watching the Boss walk towards the restroom, Aliceimmediately took people to prepare.
The S14 Agent who had been talking subconsciously glanced into the interrogation room, then his mouth twitched continuously.
Inside the interrogation room, the black man's right hand had become Stark white bone, with not even a shred of flesh remaining on the entire bone hand.
Inside James Duke's office.
"This incident has caused quite a stir, even the city Hall is asking me what happened." James Duke said with a chuckle as he watched Lynn enter.
"Sorry, Director."
Hearing Lynn say this, James Duke smiled and waved his hand: "Nothing to apologize for. If we don't find the killer when a member of our FBI family is shot, that would be the most shameful thing."
"Besides, the one injured is the Director of the New YorkPolice Department. Have you investigated the matter thoroughly?"
"It's already been investigated thoroughly."
Looking at James Duke, Lynn explained: "The criminal who injured Uncle George came from Britain, and his purpose was to conduct a transaction with New York's largest local money laundering organization."
Chapter 84: Peter Parker: I met Captain America?
"And this time, their plane was also carrying seventy million dollars worth of drugs, but the plane unexpectedly made an emergency landing in the primeval forest of Oswego."
"To avoid being discovered, they left a few people to guard the drugs on the plane, while sending people to New York to find the money laundering organization."
"It's just that, for some unknown reason, this criminal had a dispute with the head of the money laundering organization on the helicopter, then he killed the head, forced the helicopter to land, and then killed the pilot."
At this point, Lynn sighed and said, "Then Uncle George's police received the report, and then a series of things happened!"
Hearing Lynn's explanation, James Duke frowned and said, "You mean there's still seventy million dollars worth of drugs in the primeval forest of Oswego?"
"If that's the case, then Lynn, you immediately take people to Oswego. If local support is needed, I will contact the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Oswego."
"No need, Director, since this happened in New York, it means it's New York's 'responsibility'."
Lynn said, looking at James Duke.
Well… the responsibility is New York's, and naturally, the credit is also New York's!
Most importantly, Lynn wanted to personally kill the bastard who hurt Uncle George!
Above the primeval forest of Oswego.
Looking at the endless primeval forest below, Aliceturned to Lynn and said, "Boss, this primeval forest is too big. It will be very difficult for our thirty-plus people to find the criminal in this vast primeval forest!"
Hearing Alice's concern, before Lynn could speak, Joey, who was beside him, retorted, "I really don't know how you passed the training back then."
"Now is the age of technology. For an endless primeval forest like this, we naturally have to rely on the power of technology to search!"
"I don't know what the Boss saw in you to promote you to Assistant Supervisor."
Facing Joey's retort, Alice turned to look at Lynn for help.
She didn't dare to refute, she didn't dare to refute at all.
The last time Joey had a spat with her, he didn't let her into bed for half a month.
Seeing Lynn give her a helpless look, Alice took a deep breath, then glared at Sean, who was grinning foolishly beside her: "You're not part of this operation. Why did you follow us instead of staying home with your girlfriend?"
Seeing Alice vent her anger on him, Sean said innocently, "The Boss personally led the team to arrest the criminal who injured Director George Stacy. As the Boss's most loyal and capable subordinate, of course I had to follow!"
"Heh!"
Hearing Sean say that, Alice sneered, "Most loyal and capable, how dare you say that? In that small town of Oswego, who led the action team to withdraw and left the Boss alone in the town?"
"I didn't want to, but that was the Boss's order."
"The Boss told you to retreat and you retreated? Didn't you think about what would happen if the Boss encountered danger in that small town?"
"You're being unreasonable, Alice. It's clear that our people would only drag the Boss down if we stayed in the town, and—"
"And my ass!"
Seeing that whenever he had a conflict with Joey, the anger would be directed at him, Sean turned his head helplessly to Lynn.
"Boss, control her!"
It was clearly the kind of camaraderie where they could block bullets for each other on the battlefield, but Alicewould always vent her anger on him whenever she argued with Joey.
Wasn't it just that he didn't know her orientation at the time, and then pursued her for a long time?
Looking at Sean's pleading eyes, Lynn shook his head: "Alright, stop arguing, argue again after we deal with those damn bastards and return to New York!"
"Also, Joey, are you arguing with Alice again?"
Hearing Lynn speak, Alice also became docile again, but her eyes were full of flattery when she looked at Joey.
"No way, Boss, how dare I argue with Alice? After all, she's the one who can bring pretty women she picks up in bars home."
"Maybe one day she'll make me give up my bed to the woman she brings home!"
Facing Joey's sarcastic remarks, Alice immediately clasped her hands together, pitifully begging Lynn for mercy, hoping the Boss could say a few words for her.
Seeing this, Lynn shook his head and no longer bothered with the matter.
Serves her right, bringing women home?
He always took them to hotels!
As the fighter jet landed in an open area, Lynn led a group of people off the jet.
The primeval forest before them was boundless, with towering trees dozens of meters high, lush and green. Sunlight streamed down from the sky, with only dappled light and shadows reaching the ground.
Seeing this, Sean looked at Joey and said, "Joey, in this situation, even satellites wouldn't be able to find the people hidden in this primeval forest, right?"
"That's right!"
Squatting on the ground and opening the box, Joey said, "But what satellites can't find, we can search for using infrared-sensing drones."
"This newly developed infrared-sensing drone has just been put into use, so it's a good opportunity to test its performance."
As he spoke, Joey took out the controller, and then twenty palm-sized drones took off from the box, flying from all directions towards the depths of the primeval forest.
Deep in the jungle!
Slap!
A black man slapped a mosquito to death, then pulled out a blade of grass with some disgust to wipe the mosquito's corpse from his palm.
"How much longer do we have to stay in this godforsaken place?"
Hearing his companion's complaint, another companion bandaged Jonathan's wound, who had escaped from New York, and said, "Let's wait a little longer."
"Although the head of that money laundering organization was killed by Jonathan, he has already made contact with the drug lord in Canada."
"It won't be long before that Canadian drug lord sends people to find us!"
Hearing his companion's words, the black man casually put his gun on the ground: "F***, I shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess. The human trafficking business was doing well, but now I'm suffering here."
"Also, Jonathan, I told you to go to New York to contact the head of the money laundering organization and figure out a way to transport the goods from the plane to Canada. Why the f*** did you kill him?"
Facing the black man's complaint, Jonathan, whose face was pale from blood loss, said, "Killing him was letting him off easy, damn it. I only found out after I arrived in New York that he actually had the idea of withdrawing from the organization."
"As one of the organization's moneylenders, do you think the boss would let him leave alive?"
"And we've always had a single line of contact with him. If I hadn't killed him in time, he might have implicated us!"
Hearing Jonathan say that, the black man finally nodded.
He also knew what kind of end awaited those who betrayed the organization.
Taking out a compressed biscuit and sitting on the ground to gnaw on it, the black man looked up at the dense branches above, then cursed softly.
"Everyone, come back and rest!"
After finishing the compressed biscuit, the black man said to his companions who were on guard with guns around him, "How can there be enemies in this godforsaken place?"
"After we finish this job, I'll take you guys to that strip club in Europe for a good time. The last time I went to Europe, I—"
Just as the black man was excitedly describing the strip club with gestures, a burst of gunfire suddenly erupted from all directions.
Before one of the guys on guard could react, bullets directly pierced their bodies.
Hearing the sudden gunfire, the black man and two other companions immediately picked up their guns and prepared for battle.
"Bang!"
"Da da da"
As bursts of gunfire continued to ring out, these bullets immediately pierced the black man's body, while the other two guys who tried to fight back were directly killed by Alice!
Kicking away the submachine gun next to the corpse, Sean held his submachine gun and looked at the scene, saying, "Clear!"
From the other side, Alice vigilantly surveyed her surroundings, saying, "Control!"
As for Joey, who was controlling the drones to observe the surroundings, he spoke to everyone through his earpiece: "No other enemies around!"
As Sean and Alice led the team to take down the guards, only the black man and two companions were left on the ground, wailing.
Coming up to Jonathan, a hint of coldness flashed in Lynn's eyes.
It was this bastard who shot and wounded Uncle George.
Sean finished his supplementary shots and came to Lynn's side, looking at the venomous-eyed Jonathan, then stomped on his head.
Alice, on the side, pulled back the tarpaulin covering the small transport plane. When she saw the neatly arranged flour inside the cabin, she immediately took out a bag and came to Lynn's side.
"Boss, these are the drugs they were going to transport to Canada. Good heavens, the quantity is so huge. If the CIA found them, they would definitely make a huge fortune!"
Hmm, certain departments of the Central Intelligence Agency are quite experienced in "handling" drugs.
"Have someone take these drugs and these bastards back, and find out exactly which transnational criminal organization they belong to!"
"Yes!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Alice waved her hand, and soon the action team members ran over.
Taking the submachine gun from Sean's hand, he looked at Jonathan, who was lying on the ground, closing his eyes as if resigned to his fate.
Lynn took out his phone, then pulled the trigger without hesitation.
A burst of bullets riddled Jonathan's body, and Lynnthrew the gun to Jonathan, then turned and left.
Back on the plane, the group began to return towards New York.
Lynn looked at the call records on Jonathan's phone, then handed it to Joey: "Figure out the identities of those numbers on the phone and pinpoint their locations!"
"Understood!"
Hearing Lynn say that, Joey took the phone and began searching.
At the same time, on the streets of New York.
"Hey, this isn't your playground!"
Kicking a robber away, Peter Parker shot a web and pulled another robber's gun away.
"Wow, is this your modified pistol? Cool!"
"Trying to run? You guys are a bit slow. New York is our Illuminati's territory, what? If you have the guts, go ask our leader!"
Originally, Steve Rogers, who saw a group of robbers robbing passersby and was about to rush up to rescue them, stopped when he saw Peter Parker swinging in on a web.
He had seen the Illuminati's files and knew that Spider-Man was one of the Illuminati's members.
As Peter Parker easily dealt with these robbers, a police patrol car happened to arrive.
"Officer, there are a few robbers here, but I've already dealt with them. There's surveillance on the roadside, so I guess I don't need to go to the police station to make a statement, right?"
Handing the robbers over to the police officer, Peter Parker chattered.
"Of course not, after all, the leader of the Illuminati is Mr. Hall."
The New York police were already used to Spider-Manand the Illuminati members.
Especially after knowing that the Illuminati was founded by Lynn Hall, they had no more resistance towards the subordinates of this Deputy Director of the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, the adopted son of Director George Stacy.
Well, they always believed that since the Illuminati was founded by Lynn, then the members of the Illuminatiwere naturally Lynn's subordinates!
"Thanks, then I'll be going. There might be more people who need help."
Greeting the police officers, Peter Parker swung away on a web, following the direction Steve had left.
A moment later.
"Is there anything you need me for?"
Steve asked, looking at Peter Parker, who had descended on a web string in front of him.
"Just now, when those robbers were mugging passersby, I saw you were about to rush up to help."
"Buddy, luckily I was faster; you know they all had guns…"
Mid-sentence, Peter Parker looked at Steve and suddenly said, "Why do I feel like I know you so well?"
"No, I must have seen you somewhere? Let me think carefully."
Listening to Peter Parker's muttering, Steve Rogerssmiled and said, "Maybe I look similar to other people, so you mistook me."
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Seeing Steve prepare to leave, Peter Parker had no choice but to step aside.
After walking a few steps, Steve suddenly turned around and said, "When fighting people in the future, especially those with guns, it's best not to be long-winded. Eliminating the enemy is the priority."
Hearing Steve say that, Peter Parker looked at him in surprise, but still nodded and said, "I know. In fact, the leader also told me, and he said something about villains dying from talking too much."
"But those robbers were too easy to deal with. However, I don't think you're an ordinary person? My Spider-Sensetells me that you are very strong."
Hearing Peter Parker say that, Steve smiled, then left.
Looking at Steve's back, Peter Parker scratched his head and said, "I've definitely seen him somewhere."
Unable to remember for a moment, Peter Parker swung back to the Illuminati Base on a web string.
Inside the Base.
"Good afternoon, Professor."
Looking at Professor X, Peter Parker greeted him.
"Good afternoon, Peter."
Seeing Peter Parker return, Professor X asked with a chuckle, "Weren't you supposed to go on a date with your girlfriend this afternoon? Why are you back so early?"
"I originally wanted to go on a date with Jane, but she had some temporary matters, so the date was postponed. It just so happened that I encountered a group of robbers, easily subdued them, and handed them over to the patrol officers."
"However, ever since Lynn announced in the media that the Illuminati was founded by him, the New York police officers' attitude towards me has improved a lot. It's a pity that the Daily Bugle is still slandering me."
"Sometimes I really want to rush into the newspaper office and ask, how exactly did I offend J. Jonah Jameson!"
Listening to Peter's incessant complaints, Professor X's face always wore a gentle smile.
He liked these young people with a sense of justice, especially after joining the Illuminati, he found that almost all of them, except for Lynn, were just children.
Therefore, Professor X was always gentle, kind, and patient with them.
"By the way, I met a strange guy today. I always feel like I've seen him somewhere, but I just can't remember."
Putting his mask on the table, Peter Parker tapped his head.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a report about the Captain America exhibition in the magazine column on the table.
Peter Parker immediately jumped up from the sofa in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
Jean Grey, who came out with fruit, saw Peter's mouth wide open in surprise and asked with a smile.
"Captain America, oh my God, Jean, Professor, I remember! I saw his images and information in the Captain America exhibition."
"There's no mistake, the guy I saw today is definitely Captain America himself!"
"Lynn, believe me, I'm telling the truth. I really met Captain America, I swear!"
Listening to Peter Parker's confident words on the other end of the phone, Lynn smiled and said, "I know."
"I'm telling the truth, Lynn, he really is Captain America."
Thinking Lynn didn't believe him, Peter was about to speak when he heard Lynn say, "Don't tell anyone else about this for now. We'll talk about it when I get back to the Base."
Watching Lynn hang up the phone, Peter Parker was stunned for a moment.
Recalling what Lynn had just said, not to tell anyone else about this for now, which meant that Lynn believed what he said, and he already knew that Captain America was still alive?
Putting down his phone and looking at Professor X and Jean Grey beside him, Peter shrugged and said, "Lynntold me to keep it a secret for now."
"Oh my God, this is simply incredible!"
Looking at Peter's still somewhat surprised expression, Professor X smiled and said, "Since the news that Captain America is still alive hasn't been announced, then Peter, just pretend you haven't seen him."
"Alright, I wanted to tell Uncle Ben about this. He'd be so happy if he knew Captain America was still alive!"
Shrugging, Peter Parker said.
New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.
After getting off the plane, Lynn went directly to James Duke's office.
"Director, the people have been caught, and seventy million worth of drugs have also been brought back by me."
Sitting in the chair, Lynn looked at James Duke and said, "According to the interrogation, their group belongs to an international criminal organization. In addition to drugs, they also deal in human trafficking, smuggling, and black market arms."
"The Deputy Director Derek Johnson, whom we arrested some time ago, his Johnson Family's human trafficking, smuggling, and other businesses used the channels of this international criminal organization!"
Hearing Lynn's report, James Duke frowned, "So, New York's largest money laundering organization is actually also related to the Johnson Family?"
"Tsk, I didn't expect this international criminal organization's infiltration to be so strong. You know, we HYDRA have been lurking for decades just to fill the political arena with our people!"
At this point, James Duke looked at Lynn and said, "Where is the headquarters of that international criminal organization?"
"According to the confession of one of the black guys, the headquarters of the international criminal organization is located in London, but the boss is not in London, and no one knows the true identity of this boss."
"That black guy only met the boss once in Europe. He even suspects that the boss he met in Europe is not actually the real mastermind behind it!"
Hearing Lynn say that, James Duke pondered for a moment, "It seems you've caught a big fish this time."
"If we can take down this transnational criminal organization, then my chances of becoming the Directorof the FBI will increase. Once I become the Director of the FBI, New York will completely belong to you."
Regarding James Duke's promises, Lynn smiled and said, "The higher you go, the more stable my path in New Yorkwill be. However, Director, our strength alone doesn't seem to be enough."
"Yes, with the strength of the New York FBI, it is indeed not enough to take down this criminal organization transnationally and find the real boss behind the organization."
"Therefore, we must report this matter to the Department of Justice, and even cooperate with the FBI's overseas offices to handle it."
"Of course, this matter was discovered by us in New York, so we in New York must take the lead."
Saying that, James Duke picked up the phone and said, "Lynn, I will go to Washington later to report this matter. Please organize the detailed information confessed by the prisoners and give it to me."
"During my absence from New York, the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation will be under your charge!"
"Understood!"
Hearing James Duke say that, Lynn got up and left.
James Duke is the Director of the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, so he naturally took the lead in this matter.
He even regarded this international criminal organization as a stepping stone for his future promotion to FBI Director.
Of course, Lynn's credit would not be diminished.
As James Duke flew to Washington, the entire New York Federal Bureau of Investigation was temporarily under Lynn's control.
Internal Affairs Department, Jessica's office.
"Director, you are harassing a female subordinate..."
Looking at Lynn, who had lifted her up and placed her on the table, then sat in her seat.
Jessica said with a smile.
Lynn took off Jessica's high heels and caressed her slender, long legs wrapped in black stockings.
"Compared to you calling me Director, I prefer your small, milky voice crying 'Daddy'."
"Is that so?"
Jessica leaned down and whispered into Lynn's ear, "Then Daddy, what can your daughter do for you?"
Looking at Jessica's seductive appearance, Lynn pinched her chin and said, "How's your fiancé?"
"Don't even mention it!"
At the mention of this, Jessica gave Lynn an annoyed glare, "Didn't you say you'd help me send him back to Washington?"
"He's currently the Mayor's legal advisor, and he's deeply trusted by the Mayor!"
Facing Jessica's complaints, Lynn pressed her down below the desk, "Don't worry, it's not time to move on him yet."
"But it should be soon!"
"Be gentle when you handle him."
Hearing Lynn say that, Jessica's voice was muffled, "Don't be as rough as you are with me. Before I get the support of his family's power, he can't be ruined!"
Looking at Jessica, who was fighting hard, so much so that she was tired and her words were slurred.
Lynn smiled and stroked her head.
Lynn's target this time was not Jessica's fiancé, but the Mayor of New York City!
After he failed to arrest Derek Johnson, the Deputy Director, Chris Bell's competitiveness was greatly reduced.
Oh... Chris Bell, one of the Deputy Directors of New York City, and also a member of HYDRA.
After Lynn joined HYDRA, he and the nine New Yorkcouncil members who belonged to HYDRA were all Lynn's subordinates.
Even though Lynn is currently only equivalent to the Deputy General Manager of New York City within HYDRA.
But as long as they are HYDRA in New York, they are all under Lynn's jurisdiction!
After arresting Derek Johnson, Lynn met Chris Bellprivately.
If Lynn wanted to completely control New York, then the Mayor must obey his orders.
According to the current situation, once the Mayor of New York steps down due to some issues, the most likely person to succeed as Mayor is Chris Bell.
So, Lynn is currently trying to find a way.
Placing Jessica on the desk, Lynn got up and said, "Do me a favor, Jessica, find out from your fiancé what the Mayor of New York likes most!"
"The Mayor?"
Hearing Lynn say that, Jessica gasped contentedly, but her eyes lit up terrifyingly, "Hiss... Daddy, are you doing this to help me get rid of my fiancé, so you've set your sights on the Mayor?"
Jessica didn't know Lynn's true purpose. Even if she racked her brain, she wouldn't be able to figure out what Lynn's real goal was.
She thought Lynn was doing all this purely to help her.
So, she served Lynn even more diligently.
Three days later.
After upgrading his Durable Body to LV2, Lynn drove to the hospital.
There was no other way, after staying in the hospital for a few days, Uncle George insisted on being discharged.
No matter how much Gwen and Helen tried to persuade him, he wouldn't listen.
After receiving painkillers and other medications from the Doctor, Lynn drove the group back to the community.
Back home, sitting on the sofa, George Stacy let out a sigh of relief, then smiled at Lynn, "It's still more comfortable at home."
Hearing Uncle George say that, Lynn could only shake his head helplessly.
"I heard you caught the guy who injured me? He's backed by a very large international criminal organization?"
Facing Uncle George's inquiry, Lynn nodded and recounted the events.
"I didn't expect the Johnson, an old political family in New York, to be involved in such dirty dealings behind the scenes."
After a moment of emotion, George Stacy looked at Lynnand suddenly asked, "Lynn, tell me honestly, is GwenSpider-Woman?"
"Hmm?"
Hearing Uncle George's question, Lynn was stunned. He really hadn't expected Uncle George to discover Gwen's true identity.
Aunt Helen, on the side, remained silent, while Gwenlooked at Lynn, somewhat at a loss.
Seeing their reactions, George Stacy smiled and said, "It seems my guess is correct."
Hearing Uncle George say that, Lynn curiously asked, "Uncle George, how did you guess?"
"It's actually not difficult."
Regarding Lynn's curiosity, George Stacy said, "At first, the Daily Bugle kept slandering Spider-Woman and Spider-Man. But later, the Daily Bugle gave up on Spider-Woman and only continued to slander Spider-Man with all their might."
"I had someone inquire, and it's said that someone warned the Daily Bugle."
"Doesn't that sound like your style? You've always been like this since you were a child; no matter what others say about you, you wouldn't bother with those kids. But once someone talks about Gwen, you'd definitely get very angry."
"Just because of that?"
Looking at Uncle George in disbelief, Lynn said, "If it's just based on that, Uncle George, you shouldn't be able to confirm it, right?"
"That's right!"
George Stacy nodded and continued, "The first time I received a call from Spider-Woman was because of a group of drug dealers I was tracking. When I arrived with the police, those drug dealers were already hung on the wall."
"Although Gwen used a voice changer that time, I could still feel a hint of familiarity."
"After several subsequent encounters, I became even more certain of this feeling."
"Plus, the several tests I set up revealed that Spider-Woman trusted me immensely, even displaying an unconscious trust that far exceeded the trust street heroes usually have for the police."
"That's why I made my judgment."
At this point, George Stacy patted Gwen's hand, "Every time Spider-Woman appeared on the streets of New York, you weren't in your room."
"Once or twice is one thing, but a continuous string of coincidences wouldn't happen this many times."
Hearing George say this, Gwen pursed her lips, then cooed, "Dad..."
"Lynn also founded the Illuminati because of you, didn't he?"
Rubbing Gwen's head with a loving expression, Georgesaid, "After all, I once said that the appearance of Spider-Woman and Spider-Man was a provocation to New York's normal order."
"But in the blink of an eye, the Illuminati was established, and because of Lynn's identity, you also became a tacitly accepted part of the order by the police."
"Hehe... if he doesn't spoil me, who will?"
Avoiding her wound, Gwen leaned on her father and cooed, smiling as if it were only natural.
Watching Gwen cooing to him, Helen, on the side, also looked at Lynn and her daughter with gentle eyes.
She loved this warm family atmosphere the most.
In the evening, in Lynn's room.
"Do you think Mom will come over and knock?"
Gwen rested her head on Lynn's chest, listening to his familiar heartbeat.
"Are you worried that Uncle George and Aunt Helenwon't let you continue to be Spider-Woman?"
Hearing Lynn's question, Gwen looked up and kissed Lynn's lips, "Hehe, when Dad exposed my identity during the day, I was really a little worried."
"After all, I really like the identity of Spider-Woman, and I also like how New York citizens enthusiastically greet me whenever I appear as Spider-Woman."
"But later I stopped worrying, after all, with you watching over me, Dad can also rest assured."
At this point, Gwen looked up and said, "But, has Captain America really been resurrected? Oh my goodness, I was stunned when I heard that news."
"I didn't expect Captain America, who had been dead for nearly seventy years, to still be alive!"
"Peter told you?"
"Yes!"
Gwen nodded lightly and smiled, "You told Peter not to tell anyone else, but there are no outsiders in the Illuminati."
"Oh, and also, I heard a while ago that New York University..."
As long as she was with Lynn, Gwen always had endless things to say.
Even some meaningless conversations made Gwen feel very happy.
At the same time, in an ancient castle in Europe.
"Useless!"
Listening to his subordinate's report, a middle-aged man said angrily, "Goods worth seventy million were confiscated by the New York FBI?"
"Not only that, the organization's money bag in New Yorkwas also destroyed by that fool Jonathan."
"As Jonathan and the others' superior, do you know how much this will cost our organization?"
Looking at the furious middle-aged man, the subordinate quickly explained, "Boss, Jonathan did this for a reason."
"He reported to me after killing Elson, saying that Elson had developed thoughts of betraying the organization and even wanted to kill him, which is why Jonathan had no choice but to kill Elson."
"As for this financial loss, I am willing to compensate!"
"It's best if you can compensate, otherwise you know the consequences. Get out!"
He waved his hand, signaling his subordinate to leave.
Hearing his boss's words, the subordinate immediately stood up, "Thank you, boss, but as for the New York FBI, should we..."
"That has nothing to do with you!"
"Yes, boss!"
After the subordinate left the room, the middle-aged man opened his computer and made a video call, then respectfully stood up, waiting for the video call to connect.
As the video connected, the middle-aged man immediately said, "Sorry, boss, this transaction with Canada failed. The goods were seized by the New York FBI, and all personnel were lost."
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the man in the video said, "Useless!"
"Immediately withdraw the personnel from Britain!"
"Yes, boss!"
In early August, inside the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.
James Duke had not heard back since he went to Washington to report on that transnational organization case.
He didn't know if the old man had personally led a team to London to dismantle that criminal organization.
"Boss, a car just sped up to our building and then threw a large black box at our entrance."
"The Hazardous Materials Unit has cordoned off the scene and used instruments to investigate, finding that there's no bomb or dangerous item inside this black box."
Hearing Barbara say that, Lynn said, "Have you found the information on this car?"
"Yes, the vehicle registration information shows that this car belongs to a guy named Frank Castle, Boss, should we track him?"
Hearing the Punisher's name, Lynn frowned and said, "Let's go take a look first!"
Inside the laboratory.
"Open the box!"
Looking at the two-meter-long black leather case in front of him, Lynn directly ordered someone to open it.
"Boss, why don't you step back a bit? What if there's danger inside this box?"
Lynn didn't pay attention to Barbara's persuasion; instead, he was very curious about what was inside the leather case.
As the box opened, Lynn saw that it contained a skeleton about 1.9 meters tall.
The skeleton's left chest ribs were broken, there was a hole in its skull, and its limbs were fractured to varying degrees.
Looking at this skeleton, which had clearly suffered severe injuries before death, Lynn said to the forensic Doctor, "Examine it carefully."
Lynn didn't think the famous Punisher would be so bored as to send a skeleton to the New York FBI.
So there must be something unusual about this skeleton.
Turning his head to look at Barbara, Lynn asked, "Besides this skeleton, did Frank Castle leave anything else?"
"No!"
Facing Lynn's question, Barbara shook her head.
"Boss, this skeleton isn't right!"
Lynn and Barbara were talking when the forensic Doctor, who was cleaning the bones and preparing for carbon-based testing, immediately exclaimed.
Hearing the forensic Doctor's exclamation, Lynn stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Look here!"
Pointing at the skull with his hand, the forensic Doctorgently pressed both sides of the skull, and then two sharp teeth extended out.
"This... Boss, is this skeleton a Vampire's?"
Looking at the two sharp teeth, Barbara asked in surprise.
When she went to Europe to capture that Mutant, she was the one who opened the portal to send Lynn and the others there.
So Barbara knew that Vampires existed in this World!
"It shouldn't be."
Lynn looked at the sunlight shining through the window onto the skeleton in the room, but the skeleton showed no change.
He then shook his head and said, "If it were an ordinary Vampire, it would have turned to ash under the sun's ultraviolet rays long ago."
"But this skeleton hasn't changed at all!"
At this point, Lynn asked the forensic Doctor to perform a carbon-based test on the skeleton, then left the area.
Back in his office, Lynn motioned for Barbara to close the door, then took out his phone and made a call.
"If a Vampire turns into a skeleton, or is killed and turned into a skeleton using special methods, will it turn to dust in the sun?"
Los Angeles.
The Vampire, who was testing the changes in the experimental subject after taking the drug, frowned upon hearing Lynn's question and said, "Of course it will!"
"Generally speaking, Vampires are very difficult to kill. Even if they are turned into a skeleton by special methods, they will revive as long as there is fresh blood."
"Of course, even if a Vampire turns into a skeleton, it will still turn into a pile of ashes under ultraviolet light. Why are you asking this?"
Facing the Vampire's question, Lynn said, "Someone sent a skeleton to our New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, and this skeleton should be one of yours, a Vampire's."
"But strangely, this Vampire's skeleton showed no change when exposed to sunlight."
Hearing Lynn say that, the Vampire frowned.
A moment later, as if he had thought of something, his voice was filled with shock: "The Lansas Family!"
"The Lansas Family?"
"That's right, I've heard a rumor that six hundred years ago, an unusual Vampire was born within the Lansas Family. He was born unafraid of any ultraviolet light, and even silver."
"At that time, the Lansas Family believed he was blessed by the Blood Ancestor Dracula, so they wanted to nominate him to be the leader of the Lansas Family."
"But then one day, all the Vampire families united and launched an attack on the Lansas Family. Overnight, the Lansas Family was annihilated, and that sixteen-year-old Vampire also disappeared without a trace."
"Since then, whenever the Lansas Family appears, it will trigger an encirclement by all Vampire families!"
