I, the native, do as I please

Chapter 47 Undercurrent will rise
New York, in the Sheriff's Office of the Federal Police Headquarters.

Sergeant Carl put down the phone, looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Sorry, ma'am, I can't get in touch with Miss Ashley from the group of seven."

"Maybe she was delayed by something. I'll try again later."

The good-looking lady said: "But I have been waiting for several days, Mr. Sheriff."

"Now, a superhero is missing."

"And I have been seeking police assistance for 24 hours since he disappeared."

"But I haven't seen you here until today."

"And you want me to go home and wait, maybe the blue eagle has been killed while I'm waiting!"

Sheriff Carl wiped his face and said, "First of all, superheroes don't die so easily."

"In addition, superheroes are all owned by the Tower of Seven and under the management of Walter Company. You should actually go directly to the Tower of Seven."

The woman said irritably, "It's like this again."

"The local police department told me that only the police headquarters can handle this matter."

"Now, you have kicked the responsibility to the Tower of Seven."

"I went to the Tower of Seven, will they tell me that if you are missing, you have to go to the police."

"Ha, is this how you deal with the Nari?"

Sergeant Carl said with a headache, "Okay, okay, I'll think of a way."

"Well, I'll call the Public Relations Department of the Tower of Seven, and they may be able to provide relevant assistance."

The sheriff picked up the phone again, and after a while he said happily: "There is progress, ma'am."

"The public relations department said that they will contact the crime analysis department."

"Every superhero is registered with Walt, and they have trackers on them to facilitate location and rescue."

"I believe that soon, there will be news about Mr. Lanying."

The woman nodded: "I hope so."

Seven Towers, 88 floors.

Edgar looked at the TV, and the motherland said with a bright smile.

"Yes."

"From this second."

"There was no rescue of the Seven, no activity."

Edgar took off his glasses, wiped them, and put them on again.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, followed by a sweet voice: "Mr. Edgar, you have guests."

"It's Mr. David who made an appointment with you earlier."

A moment later, a man in a white coat, glasses, brown beard, and plump cheeks walked into the office.

He impatiently put a suitcase on Edgar's desk.

"There is progress, Mr. Edgar."

"I have already made a sample, and the experimental results are not bad."

The fat man opened the suitcase, and there was only a test tube inside. Inside the test tube was some golden liquid like orange juice.

Edgar looked at this thing and asked, "What is it?"

"It's what we said before, something that can suppress the super energy factor."

"I haven't officially named it yet. Well, let's call it the 'David Particle.'"

Edgar picked up the test tube and asked, "How to use it, is it an injection?"

David shook his head: "No, no, the motherland has a body like steel. If it is released by injection, I don't think there are needles in the world that can pierce his skin."

"So, from the beginning, I designed it to be airborne."

"The particles are highly volatile, and once exposed to the air, they spread around within seconds."

"Oh?"

Edgar suddenly smashed the test tube to the ground, with a click, the test tube shattered, and the liquid inside gushed out immediately.

But as Juwei said, it evaporates quickly and disappears in a blink of an eye.

When the fat man was still in a daze, he suddenly saw a naked figure appearing in the corner.

Edgar turned around and said with a smile, "Hello, Invisible Man."

Then he said to the fat man: "It seems that your 'David particle' is very effective."

The fat man hurriedly said: "No, no, it's still in the experimental stage, and it can only suppress super powers because it varies from 1 minute to 3 minutes."

Looking at the invisible man who appeared, Edgar squinted his eyes: "One minute is enough to do a lot of things."

"Did you say so, Invisible Man?"

"This is crazy!"

"What is this? Are the people of the motherland expressing their dissatisfaction with the Security Bureau?"

"Still playing childish?"

"Could it be that our guardian is an immature giant baby?"

"Otherwise, how could he have publicly called for a strike after the Supreme Court demanded a hearing?"

"Colonel Yuri, as a soldier, what do you think about this matter?"

On the TV, the camera flickered, and an officer appeared on the screen.

Seeing this scene, Senator Hope with a bloated waist and holding a wine glass smiled and said to a tall, thin, pale man with brown hair in a braid behind his head.

"It seems that the matter of attending the hearing has displeased our motherland."

"Look, he can't wait to fight back."

"But he doesn't know that this kind of counterattack will put him in a more disadvantaged position."

"Whether he attends the hearing or not, this year's Ministry of Defense's arms purchase project will have nothing to do with Vought."

"Congratulations, Mr. Arnold."

"Water's company is queued up, so the Ministry of Defense can only deal with your Olga company."

The man with the pigtails smiled and said, "This is all thanks to Congressman Hope. Without your push, the Security Bureau would not have filed a complaint in the federal court."

The senator laughed, and then said darkly: "That damned motherlander, last time I was kidnapped, he didn't care about my life or death at all."

"I knew from that moment that he is not a guardian at all!"

"He only cares about his hero game!"

"A person like this has already been imprisoned in a prison specially built for him, and he cannot be allowed to fly around!"

The man named Arnold smiled and said, "I think so too."

The senator frowned again: "However, I heard that your company did not hesitate to give the armor to some criminals in order to collect the necessary data."

"If this matter is not handled well, the Ministry of Defense may not cooperate with you, and even I may be in danger of being impeached."

Arnold said with a look of astonishment: "Give the armor to some criminals?"

"There is such a thing?"

"Why do I have no idea at all?"

He immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call.

Then he smiled at the senator and said, "Got it."

"It turned out to be one of our engineers, Mr. Jeff."

"It was he who sold the armor to criminals without my consent."

"We have fired the engineer and called the police. We believe he will be punished by law soon."

The senator was stunned for a moment, then he understood, laughed and gave Arnold a thumbs up.

"You are cruel, Mr. Arnold."

"Come on, wish us a happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation!"

The two wine glasses touched lightly.
