The invisible pressure spread, and the scene suddenly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

"What are you doing? Do you want to force him to death?" Jon asked righteously.

Looking around the room, no one dared to look him in the eye.

"Qiao Qiaoen." A warm feeling surged in the locomotive's heart.

Meeting his gaze, Jon nodded, "Now is not the time to talk, go down and rest."

He waved his hand to signal the nurses on the sidelines to come up quickly.

After receiving the instructions, the four nurses were stunned for a few seconds, then they carried the stretcher and moved over in two steps at a time.

The locomotive did not refuse Jon's kindness.

He struggled to move to the stretcher and stared at the sky in a trance.

After this incident, it can be said that his heroic career has been completely ruined.

In order to maintain his popularity, he injected compound number five, but in the end, he ended up like this.

The locomotive's mouth curled up into a bitter smile.

He was so sentimental that he didn't notice that one of the nurses was gritting his teeth with veins bulging, as if he was trying hard to suppress his murderous intent.

Another nurse saw this and lowered his voice and said, "Calm down, Xiuyi. It's not time to do anything yet."

locomotive:

Xiu Yi?

Why does this name sound familiar?

I believe everyone knows what day tomorrow is. Hehehe, I'll take a day off to spend time with my girlfriend.

Chapter 289: Homelander: I can’t bear it today!

"The locomotive is missing? But how can a locomotive be missing?"

Homelander stared at Assistant Sister Ai in disbelief.

Being fixed with her countryman's gaze, Sister Ai said tremblingly: "We don't know the specific situation. But what is certain is that the locomotive did not return to his own home after the game yesterday."

"Then go look for his lover! That bastard's good deeds have been exposed, so maybe he went to his old lover to seek comfort." Homelander said angrily.

Sister Ai swallowed her saliva. "We...we have already gone to look for it. The woman said that the locomotive never came."

After a pause, she continued, "The company suspects that it might have been done by the 'Black Robe'."

"FK, what the hell!" Homelander held his head in his hands.

First the invisible man, then the locomotive.

Who is next?

Queen Maeve? The Deep? Or more directly, himself?

The people of my country feel that there is an anger in their hearts that is difficult to vent.

Originally, being a superhero was just a profession.

And now, this career is actually costing my life.

This made him, who called himself the "most powerful hero", feel challenged.

As the saying goes, good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes singly.

The hardworking captain of the Super Heroes Team was still worried about the disappearance of his team members. Over there, the PR department brought bad news to the people of China.

——In a previous anti-terrorist operation, he shot a terrorist with his laser eyes. Unexpectedly, he failed to control the force well, and the heat beam passed through the terrorist's body, accidentally injuring a civilian in the corner.

The Chinese people laughed in anger, "The people in that poor place can't even afford to eat, how can they afford to buy a cell phone to record a video?"

Sister Ai could tell that her countryman was angry and was so scared that she didn't dare to say a word.

Just then, Madeline, dressed in a smart suit and high heels, walked in.

She motioned for Sister Ai to leave first, then gave a gentle smile and said, "Don't be so excited. Things will eventually pass. You have to trust Water Company."

Unexpectedly, Homelander didn't buy it. "Wake up, Madeline. The current Water Company is not the same as before. You have to admit that the company no longer has that much power."

Although Homelander may seem mentally immature in some aspects, he is by no means simply a giant baby who lacks love in his heart.

In some respects, he even saw things more clearly than Madeline, Edgar and other senior executives of the company.

Madeline seemed to be surprised that Homelander had learned to talk back, and for a moment she was unable to react.

Homelander went on to say: "We now have many enemies, including the government, the media, and even that new bullshit "black robe". But apart from the company's compromise, I haven't seen any effective countermeasures at all."

"Homelander, how could you even think that?"

Madeline's heart moved slightly, knowing that she couldn't let the Homelander continue talking. She opened her arms and hugged him.

As the warm fragrance entered his arms, the countryman suddenly calmed down.

He opened his mouth and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to target you, but the continuous bad news made me lose control a little."

"I understand, I understand, you don't have to explain." Madeline's voice was extremely gentle.

She is one of the people who understands her country best and knows what methods should be used to appease this immature "big boy".

When Homelander's emotions had calmed down, she took the opportunity to say, "Now, relax and come with me to the media reception, okay?"

"Madeline, I don't want to." Homelander frowned.

But he had barely said half of his words when Madeline pounced on him.

After a while of passionate kissing, the Chinese man felt so good that his toes were numb.

After parting their lips, he coughed lightly and changed the subject: "I can attend that media reception with you, of course."

"This is what a hero is to me—" Madeline looked at her countryman whose face was slightly red, and deliberately dragged out her tone.

the other side.

"Tell me again, what's your name?" Jon looked at the black-haired beauty in front of him and asked with interest.

"Victoria Newman." Newman answered generously.

She smiled faintly, "Mr. Edgar specifically asked me to come here to serve as your assistant."

What is this called?

This is like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken, it has no good intentions.

Jon smiled and said, "Assistant? I don't think I need an assistant at work."

Newman's expression remained unchanged. "Even if I can't help you at work, I can still do something within my ability in life."

This statement is rather ambiguous.

Jon pretended not to understand and waved his hand, "No, I'm a casual person and I have a bad temper. I'm sure you've heard about this."

Newman just smiled but didn't say anything.

Staring into Jon's eyes, she said, "Anyway, I'll be by your side from now on."

Generally speaking, there is a term in academia for this kind of behavior, which is called "giving it for free."

Edgar doesn't think that by sending a female spy to be placed next to me, Qiao, he can control my every move, right?

Haha, how naive.

Since he couldn't refuse, Jon didn't say anything more.

No matter how powerful Victoria Newman is, her abilities have no effect on me. In that case, what else is there to say? Just enjoy it.

Of course, although he said he was enjoying it, his body was very obedient.

It's not that Jon doesn't have the guts, it's just that the timing is wrong

"Just wait here for me to come back. I'm going to go out and take care of something."

After saying this, without giving Newman a chance to reply, he opened the portal and instantly disappeared from the spot.

Newman's eyes widened instantly when he observed the various magical powers displayed by Jon up close.

After repeatedly confirming that the other party had really left, she patted her chest, suppressed her uneasy mood, took out her cell phone, and called her adoptive father Edgar.

"Father, it's me. The plan went smoothly. Although John Joestar showed resistance, he finally accepted my existence. But there is something I think I must tell you."

Victoria Newman told Edgar in detail what had just happened.

On the other end of the phone, Edgar's brows immediately frowned.

Disappeared for no reason?

That doesn't sound like a good thing.

Recalling the recent turmoil.

He said in a deep voice, "I understand. Don't make this public for now. Right now, your most important task is to gain John Joestar's trust."

Newman nodded slightly.

But soon, she spoke again with concern: "Although I know what I should do, father, John Joestar seems to be wary of me."

"So it depends on your methods." Edgar said meaningfully.

Newman listened and bit his lip lightly.

Finally, she sighed.

Forget it.

John Joestar's appearance is extremely outstanding, so he is not at a disadvantage.

An apartment.

With a light step forward, Jon arrived at an unfamiliar place.

Seeing Jon, Butcher and the others hiding here were startled and raised their guns subconsciously. But when they saw who was coming, they put down their arms with embarrassed expressions.

"Don't be too nervous." Jon smiled, "How is my colleague?"

"Not very well, to be honest." Butcher shrugged.

French added: "That guy has been taking too many drugs. His heart is like a worm. Even without us, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for much longer."

Jon understood.

Turning his head and looking around, he asked, "Where is that boy Xiu Yi?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Butcher and the others' faces suddenly turned a little ugly.

Jon blinked. "Could it be that he quit because he no longer wanted to go against superheroes after his girlfriend was resurrected?"

The actual situation is just as Jon said. In essence, Hughie is not like Butcher. He is just an ordinary person who was innocently involved in a superhero accident. After his girlfriend was resurrected, his obsession naturally dissipated.

Butcher looked a little embarrassed and said, "The boy just wants to take a rest. He will be back."

Jon smiled back.

Changing the subject, he said, "Okay, let me go see my colleagues."

Glancing at Butcher, Frenchie, and MM's faces, he deliberately instructed them, "Perform the whole scene, just stand still, and don't let yourself be fooled."

Butcher and others nodded.

Jon saw it and snapped his fingers lightly.

In an instant, all kinds of fierce noises rang out for no reason, scaring Butcher and the others so much that their faces turned pale.

However, it was just a lot of thunder but little rain. It sounded amazing, but in fact nothing happened.

Jon signaled Butcher and others with his eyes, then he strode into the inner room and kicked the door open casually.

In the sight, the locomotive was lying in the middle of the floor with a blindfold on his face and a dejected look on his face.

He had heard the noise outside a long time ago, and asked in great fear: "Who is it? Who is there?"

Jon cleared his throat, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you."

This sound.

What is that sound?!
