Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 24 Give Me 10 Vibrators (Third Update)
"Could it be that Chief George is also interested in the weapons developed by Orange Industries?"

Seeing George Stacy's hesitant expression, Luca casually asked as he walked toward the corner of the building.

There was a reason he asked that.

As mentioned before, recently, due to the large number of Chitauri weapons left in Manhattan after the Battle of New York, the situation has become more complicated.

This has led to several recent violent crimes in New York City involving the use of alien weapons.

The harm caused by these incidents is clearly incomparable to that of the petty crimes committed previously.

Previously, I used the [Dominator] to blow up a large truck with one shot. Although the so-called company prototype that was actually registered was just a failed high-energy ion gun that had once served as a core component of the [Dominator].

However, to those who don't understand, this portable, high-powered weapon clearly has a very promising future.

However, George Stacy shook her head awkwardly.

"Well, no, that's not it. Although I am very optimistic about your company's products, the procurement of equipment is not something I can decide on my own."

Although George Stacy, as the New York City Police Commissioner, certainly wielded considerable power.

However, the issue of such weapons orders not only requires review by various departments within the New York Police Department, such as finance, auditing, and logistics, but also ultimately needs to be approved by the New York City Mayor's Office.

Not to mention the cumbersome procedures involved in bidding, tendering, and government funding. At most, his position as bureau chief only granted him a limited amount of advisory authority.

However, Chief George didn't keep everyone in suspense, explaining only the equipment issue before continuing.

"Our investigation revealed that the truck driver you injured had a high level of alcohol in his system, indicating that he had been drinking continuously while driving."

"What? Does Chief George think this incident was an accident?" Luca asked with a hint of amusement.

"No, no, in fact, the investigation results showed that the other party had a large amount of alcohol in his stomach and intestines, and it hadn't even been fully absorbed. Therefore, we suspect that the driver was just trying to cover up his crime by drinking."

"My current assessment is that this incident was most likely a premeditated malicious attack."

Samira, standing to the side, rolled her eyes. Why did they need to repeat such an obvious thing to them?
Chief George ignored Samira's gaze and kept staring at Luca, talking incessantly.

"As for what you said about the possibility that the mastermind behind the attack might be related to your uncle, Mr. Dragan Orange, it cannot be confirmed at the moment. However, our police will do our best to find the real culprit and bring him to justice."

"Therefore, we hope that Mr. Orange will cooperate more with our police work in the future."

Upon hearing this, Luca raised an eyebrow and then handed over his business card.

In fact, Luca had already taken down Samira's phone number at the police station, and now handing over his business card was a way of expressing his approval of George Stacy.

"Then I thank Chief George in advance for getting justice for me."

Upon seeing the business card handed to her, George Stacy hesitated for a moment before accepting it and then taking her leave.

As Luca watched him return to the police station, he had a feeling that the man's hasty departure to find him meant more than just telling him this much.

In fact, the reason why Luca chose to call the police and cooperate with their work, and even directly revealed information about his uncle Dragan, was precisely because he wanted to use police intervention to uncover the person behind Dragan.

Yes, although he hadn't figured out the attacker's identity yet, he had already blamed it on his uncle.

Otherwise, Luca didn't believe it was such a coincidence that the other party had just provoked him and then he was involved in a car accident.

What if the final outcome wasn't an attack caused by Dragan?

So even if he's killing two birds with one stone, it's only the New York Police Department's energy that's being wasted, and he himself doesn't lose anything.

After watching George Stacy leave, the company had already sent another new car to wait outside the police station.

After getting into the car, Luca leaned back wearily against the seat.

After a whole day of funerals and car accidents, he was completely exhausted.

In fact, Luca has been spending almost all his time at the hospital taking care of his mother, Gina, these past few days. In addition, he also has to manage his father's funeral, so many other things have been temporarily postponed.

Now that this whole mess has happened, he has a feeling that his life in the future might not be very peaceful.

"By the way, Aunt Samira, have the things I ordered arrived yet?"

“Young Master, everything was prepared yesterday, but because we are going to hold Mr.’s funeral today, I had all the things temporarily piled up in the living room.”

Luca nodded upon hearing this, but then he looked at the brand-new prosthetic limb that Tony Stark had given him.

Or rather, the pale blue panel floating on this prosthetic limb.

Yes, those 'core components' only pop up the crafting panel when you actually interact with them, so they don't affect Luca in any way.

However, since this mechanical prosthesis is directly pressed onto one's own arm, it is always in contact with the body.

Luca didn't know how to cancel the panel, and the bright light blue panel kept swaying back and forth with his arm.

Although it has no 'collision volume', its semi-transparent state does not obstruct the view.

But in his own eyes, the white-glowing arm and the glaringly dark blue panel always gave Luca an urge to reach out and tap a couple of times, to do something.

'We have to synthesize this thing as soon as possible; what's with this eerie, ghostly glow?'

With this in mind, Luca spoke again, referring to the required 'synthetic consumables' on the panel.

"Aunt Samira, I need to trouble you again to contact the company's logistics department and send five more different models of grappling hook guns and five smaller hydraulic transmission rods under 50 centimeters."

At this point, Luca paused slightly.

He wondered in his head what kind of thing could be considered a 'miniature therapeutic device' according to the synthesis panel's criteria.

"Okay, also order one low-frequency therapy device, one microwave therapy device for the shoulders and neck, one laser and one infrared light therapy device, and one magnetic therapy bracelet. All of them should be the smallest models available on the market; the specific efficacy, strength, and brand are not important."

Although Samira was somewhat puzzled by what Luca said, she still meticulously recorded all of his requirements.

She knew that since her husband's death, young master Luca had been working hard to research and tinker with these strange things.

They also collected a lot of various materials and equipment.

Moreover, it wasn't entirely ineffective; at least the magical pistol that the young master called "Dominator" was something he had secretly crafted without his knowledge.

Samira didn't understand scientific research, but she was well aware of the amazing power of the weapon during the test.

In Samira's mind, young master Luca is now a super scientific genius who can rival her late husband.

So even when Luca made some strange material requests, she never hesitated to prepare them.

After all, the world of geniuses is always harder to understand.

Just when Samira thought that the young master's request was over, Luca glanced at the last item on the panel, 'Synthesis Consumables', and spoke again in a calm tone.

"Also, give me 10 more vibrators of different models and sizes!"

"????"

I'll post three more chapters today (actually, it's not good to update too much during the new book period).

I mainly want to ask everyone for more reading, monthly votes, and comments. These metrics, especially daily reading, are very important for the book's performance during its initial release period.

I felt bad asking for help without any real assistance, so I posted an extra chapter.

Thank you all in advance.
