Mei Man: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

Chapter 153 Jessica Jones

Hearing Jessica's warning, both the cursing white man and the black woman complaining not far away wisely chose to shut up and run away from Jessica.

"Humph."

Turning her head to look at these fleeing guys, and scanning the bad environment around her, Jessica curled her mouth with an obvious disdainful expression on her face.

As a private eye in Hell's Kitchen, Jessica is obviously used to all this, and is also used to shutting up some annoying guys with her fists.

"Bully the soft and fear the hard."

With a cold snort in her mouth, Jessica raised the wine bottle in her hand and took a sip into her mouth.

The career of a superhero, for Jessica Jones, came from an accident.

On a trip to Disneyland, she and her younger brother were arguing in the backseat. Her father was distracted while driving, and their car collided directly with a military vehicle full of radioactive chemicals. Everyone present was exposed to radiation. middle.Only Jessica survived and was rushed to hospital in a coma.

After waking up, she has superhuman strength and the ability to fly.

In order to be able to forget the grief of her family's death, Jessica once tried to do something with her abilities.

To this end, she turned into a superhero to save others.

However, the life of a superhero is not as good as imagined, which is why Jessica gave up decisively after being a superhero for a period of time and turned to a private detective.At least, the job of a private detective can also allow her to earn money for getting drunk.

Jessica Jones has a self-deprecating look on her drunken face as she recalls her tragic superhero career.

"Superheroes are shit!"

Shaking her head, pressing down the bad memories about superheroes in her mind, Jessica habitually picked up the bottle in her hand and took another sip, intending to use alcohol to numb her will and forget those bad memories.

It's just that a mere bottle of wine is a drop in the bucket for the alcoholic Jessica. In fact, the bottle in her hand was already empty before she could walk a few steps.

"Shit!"

After shaking the empty wine bottle in her hand, Jessica couldn't help cursing in a low voice.

With drunken steps, she walked towards her private detective agency.

"Ok?"

Seeing that the detective agency was getting closer and closer, Jessica instinctively quickened her pace, but a figure suddenly appeared at the intersection, making her pace a little slower, looking at this tall, motionless Jessica frowned subconsciously.

"You people, don't you have anything else to do?"

Ever since the Superhero Registration Act came out, Jessica Jones has always been troubled by guys like this.

Even though she no longer admits that she is a superhero, these guys obviously don't believe her explanation and just use it as an excuse.

The identity of a superhero is like an ugly scar firmly imprinted on Jessica's body.

"Shit!"

Lowering her head and cursing secretly, Jessica frowned and walked towards the intersection where the figure was.

"I've already said that from now on, I'm not going to be a superhero anymore, so if you want to make trouble, go to Daredevil and these guys who are still doing superheroes..."

Bang!
As Jessica spoke, she turned her slender wrist.

He thought that if he couldn't persuade the other party, at least he could use force to silence the other party.

However, the next second.

Jessica's close body was hit by a punch. Feeling the huge force from her own shadow's fist, she quickly controlled her body to float into the air.

"Who are you?!"

Feeling the dull pain coming from the side of her arm, Jessica's consciousness paralyzed by alcohol suddenly became clearer, and she looked in the direction of the figure and asked solemnly.

Since gaining this superhuman power, she has rarely encountered anyone who could hurt herself.

"Jessica Jones..."

Walking out from the intersection, revealing his strong and dark body.

Luke Cage looked up at Jessica in mid-air, and replied with a low voice.

"I'm Luke Cage, a member of the Thunderbolts. Your behavior has violated the relevant regulations of the Superhero Registration Act. I hope you can cooperate with my work and don't make any unnecessary resistance. Whether it is For you or for me."

"The Thunderbolts? Luke Cage!"

Frowning, he looked at Luke Cage who appeared in Hell's Kitchen.

Jessica's expression was a bit ugly, she never thought that one day she would attract the attention of the Thunder Special Team and his team.

"Did you make a mistake? I haven't been a superhero for a long time. The "Superhero Registration Act" has nothing to do with me. I'm just a private Just a detective."

In mid-air, Jessica took a deep breath and opened her mouth to explain something.

"In this case, you can cooperate with my work."

But obviously, Luke Cage didn't believe the reason she gave, or that's what many anti-registration guys who were captured by the Thunder Special Agents before said.

That's right, since the announcement of the new "Superhero Registration Act" regulations, Luke Cage's Thunder Special Agents team has been secretly arresting anti-registration factions throughout New York City.

"Do you think I'll believe it?"

Although, even as a private detective, Jessica Jones' professional level is quite bad.

However, at least relying on her superhuman ability, she has come into contact with some clues or evidence that ordinary people cannot get.

For example, the covert operations carried out by the Thunderbolts.

According to the information Jessica knew, the Thunderbolt Agents had already arrested at least ten people with extraordinary abilities, including superheroes like Jessica who were unwilling to register, or former superheroes.But there are also superhuman criminals who use their powers to commit crimes.

But no matter what it is, the situation after they were captured by the Thunder Special Agents is not very good.

Although the environment in Hell's Kitchen is terrible, Jessica obviously has no plans to change her life, especially the prison life of the Thunderbolt team.

As for registering with the Superhero Registration Act, that's even less likely.

She doesn't even want to be a superhero anymore, why should she register her identity.

What's more, once you register and disclose your identity, it means that your past and even your family members will be exposed to danger.

This is also the reason why the vast majority of anti-registration heroes are unwilling to reveal their identities and hide their heads.Although the Superhuman Behavior Supervision Committee has made a guarantee that it will protect the safety of the registered family members, but is there still not enough guarantees from the government?They also promised to win World War II.

Not everyone is as rich and familyless as Harry Osborn.

Although Jessica lost her family in a car accident and chemical radiation, she was adopted by the Jones family after waking up from a coma.

She obviously didn't want to cause trouble for the Jones family because of what she had done.

Especially when her troubles are not small.
