Matt didn't understand why Erica wanted to hang out with the Hand and the Society. It was clear that the Hand and the Society had been chasing her before, and she even died at the hands of the Hand and the Society's ninjas. But now... Erica has no restraints at all, and she even carries weapons. It didn’t look like he was being coerced at all. Matt felt clearly that Erica got out of Alexandra’s car. Judging from the posture of the two of them, Erica looked more like Alexandra. This old woman's bodyguard.
What exactly is going on?
Alexandra walked into the Chinese restaurant leisurely, just like an ordinary old lady coming to dine in a Chinese restaurant. After she entered the Chinese restaurant, she randomly found a seat and sat down. Judging from her posture, she was really no different from an ordinary old lady, just as weak and staggering.
"Generally speaking, Chinese food is not my first choice, but I like fortune cookies very much." Alexandra seemed unable to see the tense atmosphere at the scene. She looked at everyone very calmly.
American Chinese food is a magical existence. You can eat a lot of "Chinese food" in the United States that you have never seen in China, such as General Tso's chicken, stir-fried chop suey, and a dessert that almost every Chinese restaurant will serve after a meal - "fortune cookies"
It has an angular shape and a golden outer shell like an egg roll. It is hollow inside. When opened, there is a small piece of paper with words. Sometimes it is a signature to predict fortune. The content is nothing more than wealth, career or study; sometimes it is a sentence. Lucky words; sometimes a motto or chicken soup.
To put it bluntly, it's just to fool the ghost guy. When Kai first heard about fortune cookies in a Chinese restaurant, he was also confused. It is probably a derivative of putting coins in dumplings, but foreigners like this very much and wishfully believe that there are indeed fortune cookies in Chinese food.
Compared to Alexandra, the others were not so calm. They stood up and stood apart, vaguely surrounding Alexandra in the middle.
Luke obviously didn't recognize this old woman. He whispered: "Who is she?"
Matt knew Luke was asking himself. But he didn't know. The Shouhehui is like an iceberg floating on the sea. You think you see the iceberg, but in fact, there is more hidden under the surface of the sea.
Gunsou spoke at this time.
"Alexandra, she has been leading the peace conference. When they spread out, each finger would rule its own area, growing in power and influence, and when they came together, she was the five-fingered one. commander."
"Thank you for introducing me, Gunsou." Alexandra was not at all anxious about Gunsou telling her details. Instead, she gestured very elegantly: "I really think we should have a good talk. Like. Talk calmly like an adult."
To Alexandra, the protracted war between the Hand and the Pure Society was indeed as senseless and ridiculous as a child's fight. For so many years, the True Pure Society has been working against them, but after hundreds of years, has the True Pure Society really harmed them in the slightest?
On the contrary, Zhen Chunhui himself was almost dead.
Alexandra really felt that such a fight was worthless. She prefers to talk about things of value.
"What do you want?" Gunsou did not become irritable as soon as he heard about the handover like before. He carefully asked Alexandra his doubts.
"You really surprise me, Stickman. You are so old, but you are still witty." Alexandra stood up and looked at Stickman with emotion. This old man has been against her since she was a child. To this day, he still doesn't give up, which is really touching.
"What about you? What will you become when you grow old?"
"firm!"
Alexandra walked past Stickman and came to Daniel.
"Mr. Rand, I'm sorry that you left our meeting so suddenly."
The reason why Alexandra said this is because they were the ones who rescued Daniel from prison! However, after rescuing Daniel, their meeting was not very harmonious.
It was Matt and Luke who arrived to save Daniel at that time, and because of this, Daniel joined them. Then there was the rescue of Colin Wing.
"You're trying to kill us!"
"Oh." Alexandra turned to look at the scarred defenders: "They may die, but you... won't. My organization has always respected the guardians of Kunlun, always."
"Your respect is worth nothing to me! My only purpose is to destroy you."
"Yes, but...your repeated failures mean that your goals cannot be achieved." Alexandra didn't care about Daniel's hostility. "So... maybe you should consider other possibilities, Mr. Rand."
"There is no other possibility!" Daniel was like an awkward child, with a tough tone but lack of confidence.
In comparison, Alexandra seemed much more at ease. She held Daniel's arm affectionately and taught him earnestly like a kind elder.
"My dear, there are always choices, and that's why life is so interesting."
"That's enough! Alexandra! That's enough! You can't even get him!" Gunsou couldn't listen anymore and he roared.
Daniel still had little experience, and for a moment, Daniel was indeed frightened.
But Luke suddenly spoke and chased people away, which made Daniel wake up.
Daniel was obviously not stupid enough to follow Alexandra, and he broke away from her hand on her shoulder.
The faint smile disappeared from Alexandra's face, and she took back her hand: "That's really a pity. I want to solve the problem in a more peaceful manner. But... the only language your friend knows, It’s violence. Then...let’s do it!”
As he finished speaking, a pitch-black blade struck Cage's neck from behind. But as if Matt had expected it, the head of the short stick in his hand suddenly shot out and hit the air behind Cage. There was a muffled sound, and a black figure took two steps back, only to see a figure holding knives crossed on his chest.
Obviously, Matt's attack just now was blocked by her.
And this dark figure is Matt’s ex-girlfriend Erica, who has been invisible just now.
Cage's reaction was not slow either. He changed his hand and punched the opponent.
Erica's jet-black katana suddenly met his arm.
clang!
There was a clear sound of gold and iron clashing, and in a string of sparks, the jet-black katana was opened. Cage retracted his hand with a painful expression, and looked at the shallow wound on it, and his face became darker.
Not only him, Matt and Gunsou's expressions were equally ugly. The feeling of being beaten hard by one of your own... is simply overwhelming.
To make matters worse, they discovered that Erica was stronger than before.
Alexandra stood at the door, expressionless, and said calmly: "Give up, you will not be her opponent."
She had only one purpose today, and that was to take Daniel away. As for the others...she really didn't care. In her hundreds of years of life, she has faced many enemies, and the strongest among them are like carps crossing the river. These people are really nothing. Their life and death have never been important. The only reason why they are still alive now is She didn't want to push Daniel too hard. If Daniel really breaks up with her, she will be the one to lose!
She didn't have much time left.
Following Alexandra's words, black shadows filed in one after another.
The ninjas who had been surrounding the outside finally joined in. Jessica and Susie, who had been protecting the injured Colin, also had to join the battle. Colin Wing was now completely a burden. In order to protect her, the two heroines had to He spared his energy to take care of her, and just like that, two extremely powerful combatants were restrained by a group of ninjas, and they were even at a disadvantage.
Daniel was not a character willing to admit defeat. When he saw his girlfriend was trapped, he immediately rushed forward with a roar.
But with his little effort...it's really not enough.
No, with just two moves, Daniel retreated in embarrassment. His clothes had already been torn, and there was a faint trace of blood.
Alexandra was still putting pressure on her side. She said to the stickman who had the most experience and seniority at the scene: "As a remnant of the True Pure Society, you should understand how strong Heikong is. Don't If you make unnecessary resistance and let Daniel come with me, you can still live. After all, we have known each other for so long, and I don't insist on your death."
The older a person gets, the more aware they are of importance.
Gunsou sneered and said: "Yes, I am the last person in the Zhenchun Association, and I also have a broken hand. It doesn't matter if I kill him any time, right?"
Alexandra sighed: "The True Pure Society...don't take yourself too seriously, Gunsou. From the beginning to the end, we have never regarded you as a threat. There is only one reason why you can exist, we I just need you to exist.”
Gunsou is also a veteran, so naturally he thinks her words are farts.
But the fact is, Alexandra really didn't lie. She was telling the truth. For the Zhenshun Society, the Hand and the Society never paid attention to it from the beginning to the end. As for why they arranged an enemy for themselves... the reason is also very simple. In the eyes of Alexandra and the other five, the Hand and the Society are just them. tools, but tools also need people to control them, and as long as they are people, they will have ambitions and variables.
The Shou Hehui is a bit big for the five of them. If it is not controlled, it will easily grow too big and will not fall off. This is not good for them, so someone needs to be a gardener to prune the Shou Hehui regularly so that the Shou Hehui will always remain easy for them to manipulate. scope.
If things remain unchanged, Alexandra and the others will still retain the Pure Society.
But things have changed now, haven't they?
The stick man sneered and said nothing. He just put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist and rubbed it gently. Over there, Cage and Daniel stepped forward to besiege Erica, but were defeated by the elusive black samurai sword and fell back.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Alexandra spoke up again.
"Daniel, I can see that you have formed a bond with them. Although this can give you some comfort, but like now, it is only temporary and they are destined to let you down. They will not make you stronger. , let me give you a suggestion, the more bonds you have, the easier it is for you to be knocked down."
While speaking, a ninja broke through Jessica and Susie's defense and rushed towards Colin Wing. Daniel was immediately shocked! Fortunately, Susie reacted quickly. At the critical moment, she grabbed a samurai sword on the ground and threw it, piercing the ninja's chest and saving Colin Wynn.
Because Daniel was distracted just now, Erica seized the opportunity and slashed to the chest with a knife.
If Matt hadn't thrown out the short stick with a rope in time to pull Daniel away, Daniel would have hit GG.
Stickman knocked down two ninjas and shouted at Alexandra: "What do you want to do to him?"
"I'm sorry I can't tell you this, but I can tell you what I can do for him. I will bring together all the resources of the organization. Do you still remember the last time when your hands and all the fingers of the club came together, right? Stick old man."
"A big purge..." Gunsou said with an ugly expression.
"And New York is such a densely populated city. Can you imagine what a purge would do here?"
Daniel was frightened by the implications of these words, and he asked loudly: "What do you mean by this?!!"
"It's up to you, Daniel. As long as you follow me...just think of how many people you can save..."
Matt suddenly shouted: "Get down!"
Everyone subconsciously obeyed.
Bang bang bang bang!
A series of bullets were fired from the street, shattering the glass of the Chinese restaurant and sending debris flying across the restaurant.
Alexandra still stood in the corner with a calm smile on her face. She knew that her brothers couldn't hold it any longer.
But in the next second, Alexandra's expression changed.
Because those bullets perfectly avoided the defenders and all hit the ninjas fighting them!
Just when Alexandra thought her accomplices were planning to kill her as well, a short old Asian lady ran into the Chinese restaurant in a panic. Behind her were her men who were shot to the ground one after another.
"What's going on?!" Alexandra asked the old Asian lady loudly while calling Erica to take the bullet for herself!
The old lady was just about to speak when suddenly there was a crisp buzzing sound in the air. Then those ninjas who were still using cold weapons to resist bullets fell to the ground instantly!
Luke's sharp eyes saw how those ninjas got there. They were hit by batarangs one after another.
"Batman!!!"
This shout immediately cheered everyone up. Although Matt and the others have always claimed to be teammates with Batman, they found out that Batman didn't actually take them seriously. After all, Batman rarely participates in their group activities.
Bang bang bang!
A figure walked in from outside the Chinese restaurant holding two guns. At the same time, the two guns kept spitting out fire, gunfire sounded, and the remaining ninjas were killed one by one.
"Director Wayne?!" This was Jessica's cry.
Soon the ninjas were cleared away at extremely fast speeds, leaving only a few ninjas standing in front of Alexandra and the old Asian lady.
The person coming is none other than Kai! And his vest.
Kai walked into the Chinese restaurant and unloaded his pistol.
"Ah...it's really easy for me to find them. Daniel Rand and Colin Wing." Kai said. "Escape from prison, rob prison, injure others, assault police officers...you are guilty of a higher crime. I hope you can find a good lawyer, otherwise, you will be in jail for the rest of your life!"
Daniel's face turned blue. He still remembered how he was sent to prison last time.
Then Kai turned to look at Alexandra: "Madam, it seems Daniel can't leave with you. He needs to accept legal sanctions. In addition, I just heard that someone said they planned to do something in New York? So? Can you tell me what you are going to do to my city?”
At the end of the sentence, Kai's words were filled with a chill.
It was also at this time that a dark shadow suddenly appeared next to Kai.
Kai said to this person: "I beg you, you can kill them easily, why do you want me to do it?"
Everyone saw clearly that the person coming was Batman.
"You can, but it's not necessary." Batman was as cold as ever.
