The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

The frail-looking company employees immediately started gossiping.

"really?"

Are we safe?

"Great! I almost thought I was going to die!"

After a burst of cheers and venting.

Everyone present bowed respectfully to Bai Ye, John McKlain, and the others.

"Thank you!"

If it weren't for Bai Ye and John McLean, they would have been either dead or at least had a slim chance of survival.

Thanks to Bai Ye and his team, none of the hostages died. For that alone, it's only right that they thank Bai Ye and his team.

"You're welcome." Bai Ye smiled and waved his hand. "I've always been a generous person who likes to help others."

After some polite exchanges...

Bai Ye and Ling Die arrived at a corner.

"Thank you so much for this. Otherwise, my company would have suffered considerable losses."

"Psylocke said."

"We're all friends, it's too formal to talk about these things."

Bai Ye lit a cigarette for himself and said.

“Hey…” Psylocke suddenly said, “Are you interested in joining our Hellfire Club? I can be your introducer.”

"Let's forget about it. I've always been a free spirit who loves freedom and doesn't like those rules and regulations," Bai Ye said. "So let's just be friends. Joining an organization or anything like that is out of the question."

Psylocke said, “Our Hellfire Club is very free, unlike those tight organizations of security companies. To be precise, the Hellfire Club is basically a resource exchange platform. Today you help me, tomorrow I help you. When facing difficulties, we can overcome them together, instead of carrying them alone.”

"Even if you join the Hellfire Club, no one will forcefully order you to do anything. You can still live the same life as before."

"Hehe." Bai Ye laughed, "Perhaps the Hellfire Club is indeed as you say now, but... power is the ultimate path to corruption. When someone's power expands to a certain extent, wouldn't they want to bring the Hellfire Club under their control?"

“Perhaps that’s possible, but…” Psylocke provoked, “Aren’t you confident in how fast your power is increasing? Are you worried about falling behind others?”

"I haven't fallen for such petty tricks since I was three years old," Bai Ye said. "I have neither the desire to rule others nor the desire to be ruled by others, so I appreciate your kindness."

Psylocke was disappointed, but there was nothing she could do. Why force a cow to drink water if it doesn't want to?

As they were speaking, the NYPD police rushed up.

Shingen Yashida's bodyguards, along with John McKlain and others, immediately laid down their weapons to avoid any misunderstanding.

nypd took control of the situation.

Then he led the hostages and John McLean downstairs.

Once everyone is safe.

A well-dressed, imposing man pushed through the crowd and stepped out, his face contorted with anger:

“I am Deputy Director Dunn Robinson. Just now, while our NYPD was organizing an attack, which idiot threw the bomb? Do you know that this huge building was almost destroyed? The person who threw the bomb must be held accountable.”

Dunn Robinson was the on-site commander, but he bore significant responsibility for the destruction of the ESU team and the armored vehicle, and he was clearly looking for someone to take the blame...

Bai Ye walked out, smoking a cigarette, and said calmly:

“I am Phil Coulson, a Level 6 Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. I blew up this building, so what? You can have it if you don’t like it! We at S.H.I.E.L.D. can blow up wherever we want on this land. If you have a problem with it, you can complain to my superior, Nick Fury. Otherwise, what are you barking about?”

Chapter 133 I've never seen such an arrogant person in my entire life.

"you!"

Dunn Robinson was so angry he choked.

He had never seen such an arrogant person in his entire life.

Hey, he saw him today.

Although he had vaguely heard of S.H.I.E.L.D. as a high-ranking officer in the police force, he never expected that the people in S.H.I.E.L.D. would be so arrogant.

"Is there anything else?"

Bai Ye tossed aside his cigarette butt, stomped it out, and calmly looked at Dunn Robinson, saying:

"If there's anything, you can contact your supervisor and have him negotiate with S.H.I.E.L.D."

"If there's nothing else, please step aside. We at S.H.I.E.L.D. are busy saving the world; we don't have time to waste on lousy guys like you!"

Dunn Robinson was furious.

Even the FBI and CIA are not as arrogant as this person in front of us, are they?

Seeing this, John McLean also stepped forward to negotiate with Dunn Robinson, his tone very unfriendly:

"Director Duen, stop playing those bureaucratic tricks. Everyone can see what your purpose is here."

"Your ESU squad and armored vehicles suffered heavy casualties due to your mistakes, so you're just trying to find someone to take the blame. But we're not pushovers for you to bully!"

Although both are NYPD officers, John McClain should give Dunn Robinson some face and cover up this internal NYPD mistake. However, given John McClain's super-strong and capable nature, if he were someone who considered the bigger picture, he wouldn't be a lowly detective by now. He has always been the most troublesome troublemaker for his superiors.

To put it bluntly, John McLean himself had to rely on White Night's life-saving grace. If it weren't for White Night, he wouldn't have had the confidence to deal with so many thugs in the building and rescue his wife. That would have been harder than climbing to heaven. So, in a way, White Night saved both him and his wife Gillespie's lives.

Therefore, if John McLean doesn't speak for White Nights, whose side will he speak for?

"If you push me too far, we'll all fight to the death. At worst, I'll quit being a policeman!"

Instead of spouting nonsense here, you'd better figure out how to explain this to your boss!

The hostages who had been rescued and were standing nearby also hurriedly said:

"That's right, we were saved entirely by Mr. Bai Ye and the others this time, how could you possibly wrong them?"

"We are willing to testify for Mr. Bai Ye and his accomplices; they are all good people!"

Dunn Robinson was speechless from the impact, and his face turned extremely pale.

He did make a lot of mistakes in his command this time, and if investigated afterward, he would inevitably receive a minor punishment. So he wanted to find some people to share the responsibility and lighten his burden. Unexpectedly, he stirred up a hornet's nest and was condemned by all the rescued hostages.

What is that?

You lowly people, don't you know who really rescued you? It was I who set an example, braved danger, and led the NYPD to personally storm the building and rescue you. And yet you repay kindness with enmity! You are utterly inhuman!

"What happened here?" Shingen Yashida walked over. "Mr. Byakuya is our savior. If there's anything, officer, you can tell me."

Although there were still traces of blood on his face from Bai Ye killing Hans with his curved shot, Bai Ye had saved him in a way.

Otherwise, even he would be in a very dangerous situation if dozens of well-trained and well-equipped mercenaries were caught off guard by his intentions.

Compared to life, a slight disfigurement on the face is nothing.

Dunn Robinson quickly replied, "No, no, Mr. Yashida, I just have some small matters to discuss with your friend."

Of course he knew Shingen Yashida, the big capitalist. Although the United States mostly looked down on Japan, the United States was, after all, a capitalist country. Facing Shingen Yashida, who was considered a top capitalist in the world, he didn't have the confidence to go head-to-head with him.

Lingdie also came over and said with a smile, "Director Duen, Mr. Bai Ye is my close friend. I wonder if he has offended you in any way?"

“No, no!” Dunn Robinson said. “I was just asking this Mr. White Night a routine question.”

Lingdie is a well-known capitalist in their jurisdiction. Even their bureau chief has to be careful to curry favor with her. How could he, a mere deputy bureau chief, dare to offend her?

"Arrogant at first, then obsequious—what a despicable person!"

John McLean spat and looked at Dunn Robinson with a hint of disdain.

"Forget it, forget it." Bai Ye instead acted as a peacemaker, saying to John McLean, "If a dog bites you, are you going to bite it back? Anyway, no one was bitten, so there's no need to make a fuss about it."

John McLean grunted in response and turned to leave, clearly not wanting to see Dunn Robinson again.

Watching Bai Ye and John McKlain leave, chatting and laughing, Dunn Robinson clenched his fists.

Others have powerful backers, but he doesn't, so no matter how much people criticize him, he can only endure it.

But you guys just wait, one day when I turn the tables, I'll show you what's what.

Especially Phil Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D., I can't do anything to you, but from now on, if I encounter anyone from S.H.I.E.L.D. in my jurisdiction, I'll make sure you're all wiped out. As the saying goes, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. If S.H.I.E.L.D. is a dragon crossing the river, then Dunn Robinson is undoubtedly the local snake. In Manhattan, the most prosperous area in America, S.H.I.E.L.D. will probably have to deal with Dunn Robinson quite a few times in the future.

After gritting his teeth in his heart, Dunn Robinson had a bitter smile on his face. He had to face reality. Because of his on-site command, the police department had suffered considerable losses. If he didn't handle the situation carefully, demotion would be the least of his worries. It was not impossible that his political future would be affected!

John McLean, with his wife Holly in his arms, bids farewell to the White Nights:

"Mr. Baiye, thank you so much for this time. But I still have children at home, so I won't stay any longer. I'll treat you to drinks another day."

"Okay!" Bai Ye nodded with a smile. "We're family, no need for formalities. My cousin and I are still very good friends. If you see him again, you can tell him you miss him terribly!"

John McLean felt that the word order of "I miss him so much" could perhaps be changed to "I miss him to death"?

"I see."

John McLean nodded.

Goodbye, Mr. Baiye.

Holly Gillespie also gave Bai Ye a final farewell, and the two walked away hand in hand.

……

night.

It was pouring rain outside the window.

Outside New York City, the wind howled and the surging waves crashed against the shore, splashing up spray.

谷塕

The vast ocean is like a woman with a capricious and unpredictable personality. Sometimes it is calm and still, without a sound; while at other times it is turbulent and roaring like a lion, pouncing on the shore.

Inside the hotel.

But all was calm.

Mariko lay down in front of Byakuya's bear, pressing her pure and pretty face tightly against Byakuya's heart, feeling the life force surging from Byakuya's heartbeat.

Enjoying this moment of tranquility.

She secretly sniffed Bai Ye's scent and couldn't help but feel an irreplaceable sense of security.

Byakuya's hand gently slid down Mariko's smooth back.

It can be said that Mariko's skin is as smooth as brocade, with an excellent feel that makes people want to touch it.
