Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 71 Jessica Jones

Su Ze did not resist and was dragged out by the strange woman. He did not calculate how long he had been running, but he knew that the surrounding environment had completely changed.

If the area they were in just now could barely be considered a downtown area, then the place where they were now was a complete slum. Su Ze could even see several homeless people sleeping in the corner.

The strange woman did not stop. She just covered her face with her hands and looked around, as if she was observing if there was anything around her that was watching her.

After walking for a while, the strange woman took Su Ze to an unfinished building.

It's not accurate to call it an unfinished building, because there are still people living in this building - all kinds of homeless people, criminal members, and powder traders live here, but that was before the Shuomie incident.

Now a sign of "Disaster Control Bureau" has been hung here, and the "residents" inside have long been driven away.

The strange woman quickly came to the door of a unit that was blocked by a huge container. After looking around, she pushed open the container, revealing a hole that was big enough for one person to pass through.

Su Ze didn't say a word the whole time, but when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Hearing Su Ze's voice, the strange woman didn't say much, but grabbed Su Ze's shoulders and pushed him in. Then she also crawled into the hole and used her superhuman strength to restore the container to its original position.

"That's amazing. You use containers to block the door. This can't be your secret base."

Although the corridor was very dark, to the point where one could not see one's hand in front of one's face, Su Ze could still see the surrounding situation clearly with the ability of "partial night vision".

Picking up an unopened bottle of beer, Su Ze looked at the takeout boxes and empty bottles on the ground around him, and had some guesses about the identity of the strange woman in front of him.

"It's great to find a place like this under the circumstances." Turning on a high-power flashlight as a chandelier, the woman snatched the beer from Su Ze's hand, opened the lid without saying a word and drank it in one gulp.

Exhaling a breath of alcohol with satisfaction, the woman wiped her mouth and took off her sunglasses, revealing her face that was originally full of unique charm.

The woman's facial features were very three-dimensional, giving people a sense of refinement. With her current outfit, she looked like a mature and mature lady. At the same time, Su Ze was also sure of her identity in his heart.

While Su Ze was observing the woman, the woman was also looking Su Ze up and down.

Neither party spoke at first, until the woman took another sip of wine, she slowly said, "Why would someone like you come here?"

"What do you mean by 'someone like me'?" Su Ze asked back.

The woman narrowed her eyes and fixed them on Su Ze's face.

"Your hands are very soft, softer than those of an average man, and your skin is very good too. You must have taken good care of it. No matter who you are, you can't be a waiter in a restaurant."

After a pause, the woman continued, "What happened just now didn't show any fear on your face. Instead, you looked a little excited. Who are you?"

Upon hearing this, Su Ze did not make any excuses, but directly took out a wallet from his pocket. Inside it, a silver round badge was shining under the light.

The entire emblem is composed of an eagle, and there is a capital letter 'A' inside, indicating the meaning of the emblem.

"SHIELD? Avengers?" After seeing the badge, the woman's face showed a look of 'as expected'. Although it was a question, her tone was that of a statement.

It's no wonder, with so many things happening, whether it was seeing an old lady suddenly turn into a strange black-skinned person, or a strange woman with incredible strength, no one would be able to remain so calm.

Perhaps, only the SHIELD agents who have experienced countless extraordinary events can keep a cool head when dealing with such things.

"So you are also an agent here to investigate those green-skinned lizards, right?" The woman pursed her lips and said casually.

"Yes, let's get to know each other again. You can just call me Agent Kaia." Su Ze extended his hand. "It's an honor to meet you, Ms. Jessica Jones."

Jessica Jones didn’t even raise her hand, but turned around and walked into the corridor. “Knowing my identity, it seems that you must have done a lot of homework before coming here.”

"S.H.I.E.L.D. is committed to protecting the peace of Earth, so our database contains files on various people with supernatural powers. The defenders of Hell's Kitchen are obviously among them." Su Ze answered casually.

In fact, the SHIELD data station has never recorded any files about Jessica Jones, Daredevil, Luke Cage and others. These are what Su Ze knew about them in his previous life.

"Interesting. Then tell me how I was recorded in the file." Jessica opened a door on the left side of the first floor and walked in.

Su Ze followed her steps and said, "Jessica Jones has superhuman strength and physical fitness. The specific way she obtained her superpowers is unknown. She opened a pseudonymous detective agency in Hell's Kitchen. Her personality is..."

"What personality?" Jessica turned her head.

"He is moody and world-weary." Su Ze replied.

"Heh." Jessica sneered and nodded silently. "That's a good summary. It seems that you have really understood me carefully."

"You are not the reason why I came here. SHIELD's records simply record your identity to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings when our people are performing their mission." Su Ze explained.

"I know why you're here."

Jessica walked to a dining table, pulled out a chair and sat down, then casually placed her coat on the back of the chair and continued.

"It just so happens that I also have some questions I want to ask, maybe you can give me the answers to these questions."

Exchanging information is a very normal method. Su Ze had no reason to refuse. It was a mutually beneficial approach for both parties. However, Su Ze looked up and asked.

"Aren't you worried that I'm also one of those green-skinned lizards in disguise? After all, with the methods those guys use, the price to pay for the word 'trust' is very high now."

"I'm not a rookie, agent." Jessica pushed her long hair aside, revealing the headset hidden in it, and continued, "I have already set up monitoring devices in the flower shop. I have to say that this backward technology is sometimes quite useful."

Seeing this, Su Ze also showed a thoughtful expression.
