America: Starting with the Last Liberty

When Rosen returned to his apartment, he found the lights were off.

"Looks like he's asleep."

It's already 3 a.m., so it's normal that Blake couldn't stay awake any longer and went to sleep.

As Rosen entered the apartment and was about to turn on the light and close the door, a pair of strong arms grabbed his hands from behind the door.

"Kid! You better behave yourself!"

Rosen instinctively thought he was being robbed, but the problem was that there were no signs of forced entry on the apartment door.

Moreover, the voice sounded very familiar. Although the other party seemed to have deliberately changed their voice, Rosen would not have been able to tell the difference if it weren't for the trump card of the Mockingbird.

"Who are you?"

The man didn't answer. Rosen prepared to break free from his grip first, and then find out who he was.

It's the same old trick: feinting with your head followed by a back kick. This move is very effective against most male enemies.

However, this time, Rosen's attack was actually blocked; it seemed as if his opponent knew he would do it.

Rosen instantly understood who the man behind him was.

"Fuck! Ray Gaines, are you out of your mind?! How dare you break into my apartment?!"

(Ray Gaines, I sewed him together with Luke Hobbs from Fast & Furious.)

Yes, breaking and entering someone else's home is a felony in America, and many states allow homeowners to shoot intruders.

"I haven't settled accounts with you for lying to my daughter yet!"

"When did I ever lie to your daughter?"

Rosen tried various ways to break free, but this time Ray was very cautious and not as careless as last time.

"Tell me your identity, who you are, and how you got this apartment building. Answer me!"

Clearly, Ray Gaines had conducted a background check on Rosen.

Although Neil has resolved Rosen's identity issue, this identity certainly cannot withstand scrutiny.

Moreover, it was highly suspicious that Rosen could suddenly afford such a high-end apartment, which is why Ray suspected something was wrong, and indeed, he was.

However, even if Rosen had problems, that was not a reason for Ray Gaines to interrogate him in this way.

"damn it!"

Rosen suddenly raised his foot and delivered a powerful kick to Ray's head.

Rosen would never have been able to do this before; he was only able to perform this move despite physical injuries thanks to his Iron Man ace.

Ray Gaines only heard Rosen shout "Tomato," and then saw him make a move that you only see in Tokyo action movies. Before he could react, he was kicked in the head.

"what!"

The hands that were restraining Rosen loosened, and he immediately broke free from Ray Gaines's control.

"Are you fucking out of your mind?!"

Upon gaining his freedom, Rosen did not immediately retaliate. Instead, he moved away from Ray Gaines and frantically rubbed his groin.

Unfortunately, Iron Man only pushed Rosen's endurance and resilience to the limits of human ability; it doesn't mean he wouldn't feel pain.

That last powerful front kick was clearly a bit too big, didn't the advisor already say so?

Taking too big a step can easily lead to trouble!

Rosen's move just now wasn't just a big step, it was practically a split in the air.

Many martial arts practitioners cannot do this, let alone Rosen, an ordinary person who has not received any training.

Ray Gaines, who had been kicked in the head, was a little angry, and his eyes turned red.

"Looks like I'll have to teach you a lesson first before you'll honestly answer my questions!"

Ray Gaines stretched his neck and cracked his knuckles.

"Then you can give it a try! Let's see if your old bones can withstand the torment of a young man!"

Ray had absolute confidence in his fighting skills. He had long seen that Rosen had not received any fighting training and was just a self-taught individual with a bit of cleverness.

In a head-on confrontation, Lei was absolutely confident he could beat this wild boar that dared to steal their cabbage.

As a result, Rosen used a fighting style that Ray had never expected: he didn't defend his torso at all and went head-to-head with him.

Under the effect of Iron Man Ace, Rosen's strength is also quite remarkable, and it hurts a lot when he hits someone; at least Ray has been beaten so badly that he is grimacing.

Rosen was very cunning; he only defended his face and not his torso, so he specifically targeted Lei's face.

So even though Lawson's clothes were covered in bruises, he looked much more relaxed than Ray, who was bruised and battered.

This made Ray very uncomfortable. He realized that Rosen was not an easy opponent; at the very least, his ability to resist injuries was not something that ordinary people possessed.

Even the top agents are probably no better than this; he's practically a robot.

Finally, when Rosen punched Ray in the nose, the bald man, with tears streaming down his face, shouted for a pause.

"Stop, stop, stop! Fuck, are you a robot? Don't you feel any pain?"

Rosen gritted his teeth. Of course he felt pain, but the Iron Man Ace's effect allowed him to avoid the negative effects of injury.

For example, if Rosen were hit hard on the head, he would still feel pain, but he wouldn't feel dizzy. That's the effect of the Iron Man Ace.

Rosen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.

"I could play with you like this all day long!"

Ray realized Rosen was different; such a character was either a top agent or a supervillain, and could never be a normal person.

Just then, Blake burst into the apartment through the open door.

"Are you fighting?"

Ray glared at Blake.

"Blake, didn't I tell you to go back to school?"

"Dad, I knew what you were planning when you took my phone away! Luckily I came back in time, otherwise..."

Blake walked over to Rosen, his face full of heartache.

This made the old father, Ray, a little jealous. He pulled Blackla to his side and looked at Rosen warily.

"Blake, come to my side. This kid is extremely dangerous; he's definitely not normal!"

"Dad! How could you say that about Rosen!"

"I'm serious! This kid can hold his own against a DSS operations team leader like me, how could he be an ordinary person?"

Blake stared wide-eyed at Ray.

"DSS? Does that mean the Diplomatic Security Service? So Rosen was right, you didn't actually work for the Coast Guard!"

Lei never expected that his haste would cause him to reveal his true abilities.

The problem now is no longer the conflict between Rosen and Ray, but that Ray has been hiding his work.

"Wait! Blake, I didn't mean to hide it from you, but my work really does need to be kept secret!"

"I'm going to tell Mom about this!"

"Don't say that, Blake! Actually, your mother knows about my job..."

Blake glared angrily at Ray.

"So you two kept this from me alone! Give me back my phone!"

After a lot of arguing and bickering, Blake finally got his phone back.

Do you have any ointment in your car?

"Yes, there is, but..."

"Then why don't you go get it now!"

At this moment, Lei felt his daughter was drifting away from him, and his once sweet little darling was starting to lose her edge.
