Not long after Eddie was taken away by Annie, a group of fully armed, unmarked armed men suddenly sensed the danger and took control of everyone immediately. These people were not ordinary law enforcement officers, because law enforcement officers would not
If you treat New York citizens so roughly in such a prosperous place, you will be complained to death.
These people quickly established an isolation zone and announced to everyone present that this place has been controlled by the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Because a rare infectious disease broke out here, all three blocks here have been placed under martial law.
,Anyone who fails to cooperate will be prosecuted for endangering public safety!
The soldiers were armed with live ammunition and spoke in a stern voice. For a while, even the famously hypocritical New Yorkers did not dare to say anything.
Accept the investigation obediently.
Seeing that the isolation zone was set up, the police arrived belatedly.
"Director Wayne." Soon the leader of this group of armed men greeted Kai, who was leading the team. This man was no stranger, it was the colonel of the Ministry of Defense who interacted with Kai that day.
This is in the center of Manhattan and does not fall under the jurisdiction of the 15th Precinct, but don't forget that Kay is now the director of the Special Investigations Department. His law enforcement powers have a very high priority, and his law enforcement jurisdiction covers the entire New York City.
This time Kai brought the newly formed ‘Special Department’.
Due to professional reasons, the colonel turned his attention to the newly formed department in New York as soon as he saw Kai. With the colonel's professional vision, he could see that this team was not an ordinary police team.
To soldiers, the police are actually civilians with guns. But these are not. Although there are some people who are obviously police officers, most of them have a very strong military atmosphere! The colonel will not be wrong about this.
This made the colonel put away his slight contempt. The quality of these people was quite high.
Kai helplessly walked up to the colonel and said with some complaints: "You guys are really capable, why don't you make it so big? This is New York!"
The Ministry of National Defense is quite reliable in its work. They have notified Kai before taking action. Of course, they don't give Kai much time to respond. Kai can understand this. After all, what the Ministry of Defense wants to do is actually
There is no need to notify Kai at all. This is also because of Kai's identity and his unwillingness to get dirty with Kai like SHIELD did.
"There is no need to worry about this. All actions are legal. Even if I want to scold you, I will not scold you New York police."
Look, this is someone who knows how to do things! When I look at SHIELD, there are five people and six people every day, always acting like the boss of the sky and the second child, and they also look like I am doing it for your own good.
Who is this disgusting?
"Okay." Kai can't blatantly compete with the Ministry of National Defense for people. So faced with this reasonable argument, Kai can only accept it. Of course, Kai is not without back-up tactics.
Batman and Hannibal are on standby, ready to attack at any time. Kai's attitude towards the symbiote is simple, find it and kill it! It's that simple. Kai is not willing to let alien monsters wander around his city.
"Have you found your target?"
Kai pretended to be unintentional and said.
Among the five symbiotes, only Venom remains in New York, but the problem is that Kai doesn't know where to find Venom. Symbiotes are different from other things. If they hide in the host's body, it is really difficult to find them.
At least there is no screening method given in the Life Foundation's experiment log.
"Eddie Brock." The colonel didn't have anything to guard against. In their view, even if Kai knew this, there would be no threat. After all, what would Kai do with that thing?
Why should we cover up this kind of trust that is unrealistic? And after all, this is New York, and if we want to capture the symbiote... we need the help of the New York police.
"Eddie?" Kai really didn't expect this choice. After all, Eddie seemed normal for a long time, while the other people who were symbionted basically turned into monsters and killed them as soon as they appeared. For this reason, Kai
But a lot of people were lost, so this also led to Kai always thinking that the symbiote was an uncontrollable monster, which was also supported by the experimental data of the Life Foundation. But Eddie is normal!
Kai immediately called the "red-haired woman" Scarlett, a former special forces intelligence expert who is still in charge of intelligence.
"Find out where Eddie Brock is!"
"yes!"
Then Kai asked in confusion: "Since it is determined that the target is Eddie Brock...why are you doing this?" Kai pointed to the isolation belt. At present, testing in the isolation belt has begun in an orderly manner, nominally for infection.
Disease detection. But Kai discovered that these tests actually include MRI... I wonder if the American people are really stupid. MRI is needed to detect infectious diseases? Even if you are infected, the lesions will not form so quickly.
"Of course, just in case. What if the symbiote runs into other people? This possibility is not small. According to the information of the Life Foundation, these guys are intelligent."
"Tsk, you guys are really good. Forget it, I will arrange for someone to act for you. When it's over, you can ask the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to issue a statement, and then everyone will go back to their homes."
"In terms of intelligence..." The colonel looked at Kai longingly.
"Have someone meet Scarlett. By the way, let me remind you, don't make a big scene, otherwise everyone's face will not look good." Kai finally reminded the colonel. After all, this is New York, and the people in Washington really don't care.
It must be able to suppress the New Yorkers. After all, New Yorkers are famous for having high self-esteem, which really made them anxious, and the president also responded.
"I understand." The colonel assured solemnly. After all, if things get really big, the boss above him may not necessarily protect him. He has not yet planned to make fun of his future. If the symbiote can catch it, it will catch him, but if it cannot, it will not.
Don't make a big scene in New York.
…
Eddie was sent to the hospital by his ex-girlfriend Annie. In fact, Eddie himself was very frightened. He had just reached the peak of his life! It would be a shame if he burped!
Annie found a doctor with whom she had a good personal relationship, and jumped in to perform a set of examinations on Eddie. During the MRI examination, a black and sticky thing as pitch-like seemed to be unable to withstand the MRI and ran out of Eddie's body.
Annie went to check up on Eddie, while the doctor and assistant were looking at the computer next door while they were checking. When they heard Eddie yelling and felt something was wrong, they got up and went to open the door and enter the next room. By some strange coincidence, they didn't see it.
Venom that escapes from the body.
But when Eddie told them the truth, the doctor and others looked at Eddie as if he was a psycho.
After all, who would believe this kind of thing?
Eddie seemed to want to explain something, but the doctor seriously suspected that this guy had taken too many drugs. He secretly warned Annie not to get too close to this guy. Well, the doctor was also one of Annie's suitors, and he even knew Eddie.
Eddie, it's just unfamiliar. Now the doctor feels that Annie following Eddie is like a flower stuck in cow dung.
What's even more outrageous is that this piece of cow dung is also on drugs.
Annie always believed in Eddie. After all, Eddie was a reporter. He had never seen anything and was a special person. It was impossible for this kind of person to take drugs.
Of course, Eddie's current state does have some problems.
But it was also because Annie became more and more unwilling to give up Eddie.
…
Just when Annie was about to take Eddie to the mental hospital to have his head looked at, the police station on the other side also received news that Eddie appeared at the hospital, so a team of military special forces immediately went to the hospital.
This shocked the hospital.
"Did Eddie Brock check up on you?" the soldier leading the team asked the doctor sternly.
The doctor was dumbfounded. He was just an ordinary doctor. He had never seen such a scene.
"Yes Yes."
"We want all his medical records!"
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you right away." After saying this, the doctor immediately asked his assistant to bring over the medical records.
Then the assistant said with a bitter look on his face: "There seems to be something wrong with the computer."
The doctor was stunned: "What's the problem?"
Assistant: "I don't know why, but it suddenly crashed just now. Then I restarted it and found..." He hesitated a little.
The doctor said frantically: "So?"
Assistant: "Well, there is no other problem. It's just that your friend's inspection data just now is gone."
Now all the special forces present were staring at the doctor.
The doctor broke out in a cold sweat, who the hell is so stupid?
Unconvinced, he immediately searched both sides with his assistants, accompanied by several soldiers, and found no evidence of Eddie's examination data.
"This...this...this..."
The soldiers looked at the doctor coldly, and then the officer leading the team immediately dialed the colonel's phone number and explained the matter simply and clearly.
The colonel was also stunned.
So I quickly called Kai.
When Kai heard this, he knew who could do this without even thinking: "S.H.I.E.L.D."
Just a few words immediately gave the colonel a tingling feeling. He believed it immediately. The military was determined to win the symbiote in New York, and SHIELD was their biggest competitor!
Originally, he thought that by cooperating with the police, their intelligence capabilities should be no worse than SHIELD, but now SHIELD can delete Eddie's medical records before they can.
This kind of intelligence capability...
"Find Eddie now, otherwise, your efforts will be in vain. Come on, Colonel." Kai said on the phone.
"Help me! Kai! Help us!" The colonel immediately called for foreign aid.
"This is impossible, Colonel." Kai rejected him very calmly. "Although I don't like SHIELD, I can't have a stand on this kind of thing. You should understand. Besides, I have already helped enough.
."
The conflict between Kai and S.H.I.E.L.D. has been a personal conflict from the beginning, including the New York Police Department at most. But if Kai gets involved in the competition between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the military... there is really no need. Kai can favor the military because of some personal relationships.
But there is no need to force yourself into the military. It would be of no benefit and unnecessary. And doing so would make many people feel unhappy. Kai is no longer a soldier, he represents New York. New York has no interest in participating in SHIELD
disputes between the bureau and the military.
"S.H.I.E.L.D...." The colonel also knew that Kai had already reached the level of a car, and it would be a bit too much to leave him directly.
"I know." The colonel also calmed down.
"Well, I'm glad you're awake, Colonel." Kai said, "In addition, I will send people to set up defenses where Eddie may go. This is the only thing I can do for you."
"Thank you very much! Director Wayne. Thank you very much!"
"Work harder, Colonel."
…
Eddie arrived at the door of his house and got out of the car by himself without letting Annie take him back. After all, he did not go to a mental hospital.
Watching Annie drive away, he took a step to enter the building. Suddenly he remembered that he had swept away all the food at home last night, so he could only turn around and go to the small Chinese supermarket not far away to buy something. When he opened the door and went in, the landlady looked at him.
When he arrived, he greeted him familiarly: "Hello, Eddie. I read the report, and it seems that you are about to become prosperous."
"Hello, Mrs. Chen." Eddie said absently, "Maybe, this is a terrible life."
Mrs. Chen couldn't help but wrinkle her nose when she smelled the strange smell in the air.
Eddie was sweating all over last night this morning. He didn't take a shower yet. He soaked in the park pond and dried it naturally. He also ate a fish raw...the taste...it's hard to describe."
Pushing the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose covertly, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but shake her head: "You smell really bad. Did you go to the garbage dump to eat?"
She would not be stupid enough to say something like, "You look and smell like shit" to a regular customer.
Eddie smiled bitterly: "Thanks for the reminder, you look radiant." He walked towards the food area at the back.
When she was far away from the counter at the door, Mrs. Chen's voice still sounded behind her: "Have you not practiced the yoga I mentioned? It can relax your body and mind. It also reduces stress. You really seem to need to relax."
"Yoga? Oh, I don't believe in that thing. Just doing a few movements can relax your mind? Then the psychiatrists will be laid off."
Mrs. Chen had a look that saw everything through: "How can it be useful if you haven't practiced it yet?"
"The yoga DVD your cousin gave me is in Chinese. Do I need a Chinese teacher to practice yoga?" Eddie rolled his eyes, walked into the food area without looking back, and started throwing food into the basket.
"Ding~" The doorbell rang, indicating that a new guest came in. Eddie didn't care and concentrated on picking food. He felt really hungry now, so hungry that he even wanted to take out the things in the trash can and eat them.
At this time, there was a slight voice coming from the cashier near the door. He subconsciously poked his head out and took a look, frowning.
They were two people in strange attire, one man and one woman. One guy even carried a bow and arrow.
Wow, there are still people carrying bows and arrows on the streets these days. Are they used for hunting?
The people on the street will be in trouble.
Eddie ignored him and turned around just to leave.
"Run!"
Eddie was stunned, who was talking?
He looked left and right and found that he was alone.
"Run! They are here to catch you!"
The voice came again.
Now Eddie heard clearly.
"who?"
Eddie shouted.
At this time, Mrs. Chen shouted loudly: "Woody! Stop talking, I am talking to the guests!"
Woody? Isn't that Mrs. Chen's cousin? That magical boy who sells everything. Eddie is very familiar with him, because he can often get some cheap pirated CDs and some 'antiques' of unknown origin from Woody.
and electrical appliances and the like.
Is he there too?
Eddie looked everywhere and saw no one.
At this time, he heard Mrs. Chen's deliberately amplified voice again: "Eddie? I didn't see him."
Only then did Eddie realize that Mrs. Chen was reminding him!
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have spoken so deliberately.
"Run! They're coming!"
The voice came again, and Eddie was going crazy.
"Woody, can you go back and clear the table?" Mrs. Chen shouted again.
Eddie couldn't care less. He knew how much harm his report had done to the Life Foundation. If someone bothered him about it, it would be totally normal! He had to leave quickly.
"Oh!" Eddie muttered back, and then walked quickly towards the back door of the supermarket.
