Not long after.
After Barbara got the mobile hard drive that could save mankind, she just picked up her bag and went out.
"Hey, dinner!"
"I'll bring you pizza when I'm back, a bigger one!"
"Bang!"
"..."
Baker opened his mouth and looked at the closed door. After a while, he came back to his senses and shook his head helplessly.
Again.
Baker knew about Barbara's little plan from the beginning, but Baker didn't mind. As he said before, Baker didn't mind Barbara teasing him occasionally, because it was very interesting, and this was what Baker gave him. A privilege of Barbara.
So Baker chose to play along with Barbara's drama.
Baker can choose to save, or he can choose not to save. He really cares about the so-called U.S. dollar. So what if the U.S. dollar is 50 billion? Can he go to Xandar to spend it?
He just wanted to see Barbara's expression of wanting to speak out but not being able to.
Again.
This time, the beatings for the Federation have been enough, and there is no need to continue. Therefore, Baker just chose to end this game. Otherwise, as long as Baker is not willing, who can get this from him that can save mankind? .
Take by force?
Ah.
Baker is waiting for this place. He knows that, similarly, SHIELD also knows, and similarly, Washington also knows it well.
I just like the way you look at me but you can't do anything about me.
Baker thought this in his mind, but after watching it for a long time, it became boring. Moreover, it was about to be the prelude to a turbulent era. What if it was disturbed by this incident and the wind stopped and the clouds stopped?
Although Baker feels that the story here has been messed up by him, he still wants to see if Iron Man, Hulk, and Thor will be born yet.
Just look at it from a distance.
Baker still maintains his own point of view. In his story, he is the only protagonist. Similarly, Baker has no interest in participating in other people's stories.
If the world is still like this and is about to be wiped out by the vampire virus, how could Iron Man be born? Didn't he see that even the gunfire in the Imperial Cemetery, which consumes an average of ten tons of ammunition every day, has stopped?
If this continues, the Empire Cemetery will probably be peacefully reunified. Tony Stark can sell his Jericho missiles wherever he goes, but not on the moon.
……etc.
Jericho Missile?
Baker blinked and said, since the destruction of Hydra, it seems that Tony Stark has been focusing his energy on chasing his father-killing enemies all over the world these years. How can there be any Eastern Time? Engage in research and development, and even the Jericho submunitions, which haven't even built the Jericho prototype missile yet.
By the way...
Iron Man, isn't it just like that?
Beck touched his chin.
One month later.
As the timeline went to June of 2008, as the vampire virus became more and more out of control, just when the doomsday prophets began to jump up and down, a piece of news came out, which was completely exciting. world.
The Life Foundation from Federal Chicago held a press conference, stating that after a series of research, they have developed a potion that can cure the vampire virus-Angela Potion!
And it has also signed cooperation agreements with major hospital groups and other pharmaceutical companies. The first batch of 30,000 medicines has arrived at the warehouse of the Godouen Hospital Group in New York...
Baker turned on the TV, stared at the woman speaking on the stage, was silent for a while, and then called Barbara.
The call is connected.
"Hello."
"Barbara."
Baker took a deep breath and looked at the TV screen. Ms. Gwen Gwen, who was looking cool and dressed like a fashionable woman, was being interviewed jointly with the Life Foundation and said, "What's going on with Gwen? "
When the vampire virus was raging, all hospitals in New York were full. Only Goduan Hospital was in deterioration because all the doctors at Godouen Hospital were poached by other hospitals.
Good guy.
Baker just said that he thought Gwen had finally learned to leave no one alone this time. The hospital was almost bankrupt and she hadn't come to him yet.
did not expect……
This went right past him.
what is this?
After hearing this, Barbara frowned: "Gwen, you know it, then let's go there together this weekend."
Beck hummed.
The next second.
"etc!"
"what happened again?"
"What this weekend? I'm talking about Ms. Gwen Gwen. How did she become the first batch of recipients? Good guy, I don't know how much money she has?"
"...Aren't you talking about Gwen Stacy?"
"certainly!"
Baker said angrily, and then frowned as he listened to the other Gwen on Barbara's phone.
Gwen Stacy?
NYPD, Chief George Stacey’s daughter?
Baker is a rich man, and George is a middle-class person. However, when Baker makes friends, he never cares whether they have money or not, because they are definitely not as rich as Baker.
Then because of his secretary Camille, Baker found a time to invite George and his family to a dinner, which was regarded as a dinner to thank George. That night, as the good girl of the Stacey family, she was currently at Midtown University. Admission, annual first-class scholarship winner Gwen Stacey also attended.
It's no secret that Baker loves girls, especially blonde ones.
so……
Baker left a phone number for Gwen Stacey on the spot, saying that he was optimistic about Gwen's future as a top student and it was an early investment. As a courtesy, Barbara, who followed, also left a phone number.
Baker frowned and said, "Gwen Stacy called you. What are you doing this weekend?"
Barbara, who was in her office, said, "Don't you know?"
Baker said, "Know what?"
"Officer George Stacey was tragically killed last night."
"What?"
"Well, I have read the scene report and witness testimony from the New York Police Department. It is said that Officer George Stacey was shot while trying to prevent a robbery."
"..."
Sure enough, there are gun battles every day, Free America.
Life is so fragile.
……etc.
Before Baker could finish his sigh, he suddenly thought of something. Little Spider Dotmeow was still skateboarding, and George Stacey had suddenly burped?
What are you doing?
Barbara's words continued: "If you want to read it, I will send you the electronic file later and you can read it yourself. I am busy now and have a meeting later."
Baker: "..."
Half an hour later.
Study room on the third floor.
Baker turned on the phone and downloaded the file that Barbara had just transferred from his mailbox.
Click to open.
It was a satisfactory report from the New York Police Department, but this time, it was revealed between the lines that George Stacy was a hero. He was a hero when he lived, and he died like a hero.
During this period of time, although New York City is known as the safe city of the Federation, many outsiders have flocked to New York City to take refuge. Similarly, the surge in the number of people has brought about a surge in crime.
During this period of time at the NYPD, Alexander was in a constant state of affairs. Fortunately, he was very happy to work overtime, because the NYPD was supported by a sponsor, and his salary and bonuses were on time and without discounts.
last night.
Having just finished handling a major case, a somewhat tired George Stacey and his companions were returning to the police station. They felt thirsty, so they stopped the car to buy a bottle of water from the convenience store across the street.
result.
As soon as he got out of the car, he heard a gunshot from the door of the convenience store opposite. George Stacey was stunned for a moment, and then he was about to draw his gun next time. At this time, the frantic gangster also saw George and raised his hand before the smoke cleared. The pistol was pointed at George Stacey and he pulled the trigger.
There was a gunshot.
George Stacey fell while trying to stop a crime.
…
When Baker saw this, his expression was a little incomprehensible. He felt a sense of déjà vu in this plot, and also felt sorry for George Stacey.
George is a good man.
An upright man, George deserves this title. At the very least, George can swear that he has never compromised with any crime in his life.
Camille's case doesn't count. In the end, it was proved that Camille was also framed.
Baker touched his chin, but he had no intention of going to hell to bring George back. Mortals are dead when they die.
most……
Based on George's life, if there really is a kingdom of heaven, George should be qualified to go to heaven.
Then here comes the problem.
Is there a paradise in this world?
No.
Is there a kingdom of heaven?
have!
so……
George can go to heaven, but he will definitely not be able to go to the Kingdom of Heaven. There are so many small planets in the Angel Nebula dimension, and it would not be bad to just transform one of them and make it a paradise.
Baker smacked his lips and nodded. George respected Baker very much, so because of this, George won himself a ticket to heaven. There was nothing wrong with it.
Think about it.
Baker's eyes fell on the description of gunshots on the file.
George heard a gunshot and was killed later. So the question is, convenience store, gangsters, gunshots, how come this scene has a strong sense of déjà vu?
Who is the other victim?
Baker looked through what Barbara sent, and there was no record of another victim at all.
what is this.
The gangster's marksmanship is not good?
How is this possible? If the marksmanship is not good, how could he hit George Stacey in the middle of the road at once?
Baker took out the phone.
"Hey, Beckett!"
"Beckett, I'm Beck, Beck Morton!"
"...Beck, is something wrong?"
"Something's wrong."
Baker stood up from his seat, dialed the number of his good friend Richard downstairs, and said, "That's it, I want to know. Last night, following George... Another victim killed along with Officer Stacey.”
Beckett said: "Of course, no problem, just wait a moment and I'll look for you."
Baker: "Okay, trouble!"
…
