[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle
Chapter 76 Chapter 76
This night was so lively, almost as lively as the nights Jason had experienced in Gotham, with all kinds of accidents happening one after another.
Before today, he had never thought about meeting old friends again, but he met and recognized Katie and Li Qianhuan, and then they met Daredevil.
Finally, they learned from Daredevil that he was also looking for Purple Man and Jessica Jones, but unfortunately, from the moment he heard the sound of fighting here, Daredevil knew they had fallen into a trap.
In order to ambush those who were tracking him, the Purple Man deliberately left a group of mercenaries here. If Jason had not happened to arrive here with Hit-Girl, Katie and Qian Huan might have been in trouble.
After saying this, Daredevil had no intention of continuing to deal with them and turned away.
Li Qianhuan showed anger on her face. She said to Jason, "Among the children kidnapped by the Purple Man, there are little mutants. A child I met online who was not rejected by his parents and had always lived with his family was also arrested, so I tracked him down here."
As we all know, mutants are excellent experimental materials and are very popular in the fields of biology and drug development. The prices of mutant children in the black market are even higher.
So when she knew that a child was in danger, Li Qianhuan became extremely anxious and ran out with her best friend Phantom Cat Katie. Then, with Katie's powerful hacking skills, she chased them here, but she didn't expect to be tricked.
This means the thread is broken.
Katie looked at Jason and said, "Jay, I'm at my wit's end. Do you have any other clues to follow up on?"
Jason came from the world's top detective group. He was very smart when he was still Robin. Katie subconsciously believed that Jason would have a way.
Jason pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go to the New York sewer again. I want to confirm one thing."
"New York sewers?"
Qian Huan and Katie looked at Jason in confusion, so Jason explained, "Not all mutants are like you. They have powerful abilities but still look like ordinary people. In fact, many mutants not only look like Professor Hank and cannot blend in with the crowd, but their abilities are also nothing special."
"There are many such people. They live together in the sewer system of New York and do not join any faction. Professor X and Magneto have thought about contacting them, but they do not accept any contact other than aid supplies. As far as I know, they have also clashed with the Purple Man. Perhaps they will have some clues."
Katie looked surprised: "Do you know where to find those people? Their whereabouts are very secretive."
Jason gave them a confident smile.
When it comes to detective skills, Bat-type superheroes are extremely confident in themselves.
Two hours later, they successfully made contact with the mutants living in the sewers of New York. Jason skillfully handed a cigarette to a middle-aged man covered with fish scales, who seemed to be the leader of this group of mutants. He gained the other party's trust with just a few words.
The Purple Man did attack them and kidnapped several of the little mutants.
Jason promised that he would hunt down the Purple Man and try his best to rescue the kidnapped little mutants, but the middle-aged man with fish scales just nodded silently, and after finishing his conversation with Jason, he retreated and disappeared into the complex sewer system.
Qian Huan and Katie were stunned. Qian Huan pulled Jason's sleeve and shook it vigorously: "How did you do it? Those people even refused Magneto's recruitment. Why can you let them trust you so easily?"
Jason: "Correction, they didn't believe me. It's just that what I asked was information about the purple man, which didn't affect their safety. So they just told me what I asked. It just happened to be a good way to get rid of us who came to their door. You see, when I tentatively asked about the information of the green-haired girl, he didn't say a word. I think the green-haired girl should be a mutant too, and they are protecting her information."
Besides, he is the "Godfather" of Crime Alley. Since Jason can get along well with the people in Crime Alley and gain their trust and support, it is enough to prove how good he is at dealing with people at the bottom of society and those who are not accepted by society.
After all, Jason is "the same kind" as them.
"The most certain intelligence now is that the Purple Man is indeed specifically picking on the little mutants to capture, and the gang that's working with them is a group that calls itself Viper. They used to just be involved in ordinary trafficking of women and children, but after their headquarters was destroyed by the Punisher last year, they got a new leader. Apparently, this current leader is much bolder than his predecessor."
At this time, Jason's cell phone rang. He picked it up and looked at it, then turned to look at Mindy.
"By the way, my informant just sent me a message telling me that the green-haired girl is indeed a mutant. Hit-Girl, are you sure your good friend is just an ordinary person?"
Hit-Girl blinked her light green eyes and shook her head in confusion. “I don’t know. Sophie and I are just ordinary friends. She is one of the few people in the class who is willing to talk to me, but to her, I’m probably not a close friend.”
Not all teenage superheroes are as popular as Dick Grayson, from school to Teen Titans. Some are like Jason and Mindy, who are out of tune with their peers.
Jason lowered his head in understanding and pressed the buttons on his phone: "You said before that before Sophie disappeared, she was in a bad mood and no longer close to people in school. Instead, she was often with that Lorna."
Qian Huan stood beside him and nodded, saying, "When many young mutants awaken, they will become alienated from the crowd and try to find their own kind."
Things were becoming more and more complicated. Fortunately, Jason had developed some informants in Hell's Kitchen recently. After investigation, they sent Jason the whereabouts of the gang called "Viper".
"They have been frequently going in and out of a warehouse near the Hudson River recently, and once they go in they won't come out again. I suspect there is a basement or other passageway underneath that allows them to go to other places."
This feeling is so familiar. When Jason and the Teen Titans were investigating the kidnapping of young mutants, they also discovered the enemy's base under a small factory and rescued Laura and Qian Huan.
He looked at Qian Huan and Katie.
Qian Huan rubbed her arms: "I remembered some unpleasant things."
Katie: “I think we’re getting somewhere.”
As things got to this point, Katie thought they really needed outside help, so she called Nightcrawler Kurt, who was on a business trip in Europe.
Kurt is also an old friend of Jason. He has the same blue skin as his mother Mystique, a tail, and the ability to teleport. The longer the distance, the more energy it consumes. Fortunately, as he grows older, Kurt's strength is getting stronger, and the distance he can teleport is getting farther and farther.
However, when he arrived in the United States through long-distance transmission ability, he was still so tired that he almost fell down. But when he looked up and saw Jason squatting in front of him and smiling, this guy screamed again, rolled his eyes and fainted.
Mindy also squatted next to Jason and complained: "It seems like you are mistaken for a ghost. Is your friend afraid of ghosts?"
Jason replied speechlessly: "I didn't know he was afraid of ghosts before today."
He stepped forward and pinched Kurt's philtrum hard, waking him up. Kurt then rushed over and punched Jason in the chest, shouting after each punch, "Why didn't you tell us you were alive?" "I shed so many tears for you in vain!"
Seeing his reaction, Jason didn't feel angry at all, he just felt touched and amused.
He hugged Kurt. This good friend was 1.75 meters tall, a height that Jason used to only look up to. But now he was taller than Kurt, so he could easily hug his friend in his arms.
Jason hugged Kurt and said again, "Thank you."
The old friends gathered again to inject motivation into this temporary small team. They didn't spend too much time reminiscing before they started to act again.
Just like when they acted together many years ago, Jason, the smartest one, served as the brain to integrate information, analyze intelligence, and make the next action plan, while Katie, Qian Huan, and Kurt, as the executors of the plan, skillfully cooperated to start the operation.
Mindy worked together with her four brothers and sisters and found the warehouse without much effort.
Qian Huan looked at it with a tangled expression: "I knew it was Hydra. Why does this organization always keep targeting little mutants?"
Jason curled his lips. "No, they are not targeting the little mutants. They are targeting everyone they can use to do whatever bad things they can."
He glanced at his abdomen inconspicuously, thinking that if it weren't for these bastards who made the enhanced serum 3.0, Talia wouldn't have done such a shameless thing as asking him to give birth to a demon cub.
Kurt: "I agree with you. Now I will go downstairs with Katie to investigate."
Jason nodded. "If you have anything to say, use the communicator to contact us. Remember not to conflict with the subordinates. Our main goal is to save people."
Kurt and Katie made an OK gesture and disappeared together. One of them could turn into a phantom and pass through any obstacle, and the other could teleport. There was no better investigator than them.
However, as they were waiting for information, a sound of wind came from behind them.
Jason's expression turned stern, and he pulled Mindy and Qianhuan away from the spot. With a bang, a big hole appeared on the ground. A woman with black hair and black eyes, wearing a black leather jacket and jeans, knelt on one knee on the spot, and slowly stood up with a numb expression. The purple man was standing behind her with a malicious smile on his face.
"Look, three nosy people came out of nowhere, Jessica, kill them."
Mindy clenched her weapon. "It's Jessica Jones and the Purple Man."
The little girl didn't like this woman who was working with the Purple Man to capture the little mutants. She was about to step forward with a knife, but she heard a gunshot.
A big hole appeared on the purple man's head at some point. His eyes widened and he fell backwards, with blood spreading on the ground.
Jason never talks too much with his opponents, and for him, even if he needs to extract information from the enemy, he just needs to leave one alive.
He calmly pointed the gun at Jessica Jones again.
"Even if you are a superhuman, you have to be careful when facing bullets. Tell me, why are you capturing mutant children? Who are you trading with? Otherwise, you will be the next one to be shot in the head."
Jessica Jones stood there in a daze. Her numb expression suddenly became lively and her eyes came alive. She looked at Jason and slowly raised her hand.
She said solemnly: "Whether you believe it or not, I was controlled by the Purple Man and did those things."
