I, the native, do as I please

Chapter 14 Meeting Butcher
The 88th floor of the Tower of Seven.

In President Walter's office.

Wearing reading glasses, Edgar looked at the emails sent to him by the organizer on the computer screen.

In the email, the organizer pointed out that the people of the motherland picked two superhuman beings and designated them as new members to join the Super Seven.

at the same time.

The people of the motherland personally eliminated an unknown girl.

"Annie."

"Nicknamed 'Starlight', from the central region."

Edgar turned the pen: "Why did he eliminate this little girl who doesn't care about the world? This girl is a threat to him?"

"Or, what does this girl have about him?"

Edgar picked up the phone and called his secretary: "Let them use the name of special recruitment to bring Miss 'Starlight' Anne to meet me. The meeting time is"

After giving this order, Edgar put down the microphone, and there was a video communication request on the computer.

The next moment, a window appeared on the computer screen, which was a scene of a certain laboratory. A man in a white coat, glasses, brown beard, and fat cheeks appeared in the middle of the lens.

"Good evening, Mr. Edgar."

Edgar nodded slightly: "Good evening, Mr. David."

"Is there any new progress in our 'Saint Project'?"

David coughed dryly in embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, sir."

"It's still the same."

"Although we have cloned the cells of the people of our motherland, the 'saints' we cultivated, like other superhumans, only have a single, at most two kinds of natural abilities."

"And you can't have a variety of different talents like the people in your motherland."

"I think it may be difficult for superhumans with compound talents to replicate."

"Motherlander should be an accident, even if we use the same formula."

Speaking of this, David shook his head, which made the fat on his face shake like a rattle.

Edgar sighed: "The people of the motherland have begun to lose control."

"He killed Madeleine, and I might be next."

"The reason why he didn't do it now is because he felt that the time was not yet ripe."

"He is selecting new members of the seven-member team. It is possible that the original members will be replaced by him one by one."

"Do you know what that means?"

"The people of the motherland want to cultivate a superhuman army that obeys his orders!"

"Once this force is formed, there's nothing stopping him."

"So until then, I need an ace."

"A trump card that can be used to control the people of the motherland and put shackles on this beast, understand?"

David bit his plump lips, and said, "Actually, I have an idea these two days."

"Instead of creating superhumans similar to the people of the motherland, it is better to change the way of thinking."

"After all, even if we can train another native of the motherland, at most we will be tied with him."

"But if we change our thinking, for example, deprive the people of the motherland of their natural abilities. In that way, if he becomes an ordinary person, even the deep sea can defeat him."

Edgar raised his eyebrows: "Is this possible?"

"Have."

"As long as the superpower factors of the people of the motherland can be suppressed, or their activity level can be reduced, the people of the motherland can be turned into an ordinary person, or a slightly special superhuman like the deep sea."

Edgar nodded: "That's a good idea, study it right away, and I will use other channels to give you a research grant."

He didn't go through the internal channels of Water Company because he was worried about being discovered by the people of the motherland.

David nodded: "Then I'll go to work now."

"Go."

In a video store.

Huey was sorting out the goods when he heard the bell ringing at the door. He turned around and saw a bearded man walking in.

"Do you want a nanny surveillance camera?"

"We're doing a promotion."

He saw Beard pick up a teddy bear, so he said so.

The bearded man shook the teddy bear: "How many nannies do you think would shake a baby hard?"

Huey was puzzled: "Sorry, what did you say?"

The bearded man shook the teddy bear vigorously: "You know, shake it hard like squeezing ketchup out of a bottle."

"One percent, or less?"

Huey frowned: "I don't know."

The bearded man continued: "The funny thing is, they sold this rubbish all over the world for a billion dollars."

Huey shook his head: "Sorry, I don't understand."

"Huey." The corner of the bearded man's mouth twitched, "What happened to Robin is really regrettable."

"Who are you?" Huey said alertly.

The bearded man took out an ID: "FBI agent, Billy Butcher."

"I want to talk to you about Robin."

"Don't you want to do something for your girlfriend?"

Huey took two steps back: "Listen, Agent, this matter is over."

"The locomotive has received his due punishment, is it over?"

"Is it really over?"

The bearded Butcher shook his head and twirled a finger above his head: "Do you really think that guy flying around in the sky will protect us?"

"It was just a show, a show, dear Huey."

"Do you know how many people die every year because of superhumans?"

"Robin, definitely not the first, nor the last."

"Would you like to see more Robins die?"

Huey shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't know these things, agent."

"But I know that it was the people of the motherland who upheld justice that day, and it was he who sanctioned the locomotive."

"I saw what he did, and I saw it in my eyes."

"I'm sorry, I didn't hear what you said."

"If you don't want to buy anything, can you please leave."

"Please don't disturb my life."

Butcher was about to say something, but the doorbell rang again, and someone smiled and said, "I think he's right, detective."

"If you don't want to buy something, you should leave."

Huey's eyes lit up immediately, and a smile appeared on his face.

The bearded man's eyes were shocked, then became fierce, and then with a smirk at the corner of his mouth, he twisted his waist and turned around.

He looked at the blond man standing in front of a shelf, wearing a blue battle suit and the Stars and Stripes, who was choosing products.

"What about you, are you here to buy something, sir?" Butcher said with a smile.

"of course."

Picking up a teddy bear, Azu shook it: "I think it's pretty good."

Then put it on the counter: "Please wrap it up for me and give it away."

Huey nodded again and again: "Okay, please wait a moment, people from the motherland."

Azu smiled, turned around, and looked at Butcher: "Shall we chat? Agent?"

"I would love to, but I can't, at least not right now."

Butcher shook his clothes and walked to the door: "Next time, Mr. Homelander."

Azu said disapprovingly: "Really, I originally thought that you would be interested in 'Becca'."

Butcher stopped at the door.
