This is the Stone Man's first appearance. He has an instinctive fear of guns in his bones and is very afraid of the black muzzles of the police's guns.
There are many people in New York who like to watch the fun. Most of them saw that the Stone Man did not exchange fire with the New York police, so they bravely came to watch.
After all, most people have seen Spider-Woman fighting super villains on TV, but it is difficult for them to actually see a superhero in real life. New York is a metropolis with a population of nearly ten million.
Bai Ye and Knox also joined the crowd.
She listened to the crowd's discussions and roughly understood what had happened:
"In other words, the stone man caused this traffic disaster in order to save a guy who was trying to commit suicide? Tsk tsk, I can't tell. This stone man's family seems to be very rich. He scrapped dozens of cars and caused a traffic jam. How much money will he have to pay?"
Because of the recklessness of the Stone Man Ben Grimm, in order to save people, he stopped a super heavy truck at the scene. As a result, dozens of cars were rear-ended at the scene, and some people were injured. If compensation is required... it seems that only tycoons like Bai Ye and Tony can afford it. The Stone Man? Haha, a poor guy, what can he pay?
Bai Ye smiled slightly: "Kindness is essentially an altruistic attribute, so being a kind person must pay a price. The Stone Man paid millions or tens of millions of dollars to save a life. It's enough for him to feel it's worth it."
These days, society is becoming more and more indifferent. In fact, it is not the fault of moral degeneration. It is simply that being kind costs too much money at one time. Many people cannot afford it, so they can't be kind.
Poor people without money are not qualified to be kind!
If Buddha does not save the poor, how can he attain Nirvana if he earns more money from incense offerings?
"Hey, NYPD, you shouldn't have pointed your gun at him. He took millions of dollars and saved a life. He's a hero!"
Knox whistled and shouted carelessly.
And she applauded the Stone Man vigorously.
It’s no big deal to watch the fun.
Starting with Knox, everyone else applauded the Thing and asked the NYPD to lay down their weapons. The Thing spent millions of dollars to save a life, and you actually pointed guns at such a rich hero. What do you want to do?
"Wait! How many millions of dollars?"
The stone man opened his eyes wide and looked at the heavy trucks around him that he had crashed, as well as a series of rear-end collisions. He was suddenly startled and everything in front of him suddenly went dark.
Where was he going to find millions of dollars?
If I had so much money, instead of being an astronaut, I would have retired long ago to travel around the world and enjoy life.
"Uh-huh... I'm not, I didn't!"
The stone man really wants to cry now.
In order to save people, he seemed to have bankrupted himself all of a sudden. Even if he worked like a slave for the rest of his life, he might not be able to pay off the millions of dollars in compensation.
On the other side, Johnny, the charlatan, and the invisible woman Susan also arrived at the Brooklyn Bridge, but they were blocked by the spectators in the first half.
Then the charlatan De gave the invisible woman Susan a bad idea - let her take off her clothes in public without being seen, attracting the audience's attention, so that he and Johnny could squeeze in smoothly from the crowd.
The invisible woman Susan trusted the charlatan too much. Upon hearing what he said, she didn't think about it and actually did what the charlatan asked.
Suddenly.
The attraction of the live audience was attracted.
After all, a super beautiful woman taking off her clothes in public is much more interesting than a stone man on the Brooklyn Bridge.
only……
Invisible woman Susan had just obtained her supernatural power and was not very familiar with the operation. When she was halfway through taking off her clothes, she suddenly exited the invisible state. Fortunately, Susan still had a bra and panties, otherwise...
Bai Ye and Knox are still watching the show on the front line.
Suddenly.
A figure staggered and bumped into Bai Ye's back.
"Ok?"
Bai Ye turned around and wondered which shameless woman attacked me with a bear?
When he turned around, he suddenly saw the invisible woman Susan, who was gritting her teeth in shame and covering her vital parts, slowly coming out of her invisible state...
"Fuck! Is Susan giving me benefits?"
Bai Ye silently picked up his mobile phone and took a photo of the invisible woman Susan.
It was Knox, who was next to Bai Ye, who reacted quickly. He immediately took off his suit and put it on Susan, wrapping her curvy body.
Bai Ye put down his phone with regret. In just less than a second, he only took a dozen photos of Susan. The time was too short.
"Susan, why are you here? And... like this?"
Bai Ye asked with concern.
Of course he and Susan knew each other. Bai Ye had made a bet with Tony about who could win Susan. In the end, both Bai Ye and Tony lost. This woman was so stubborn that she only liked a guy like Shengun De who had no emotional intelligence.
"It's that big bastard Reed!" Susan tightened her suit to cover her private parts and said angrily, "He actually asked me to...why didn't he take it off himself?"
Now Susan feels like she is about to die, especially since she was seen in that state by Bai Ye, an acquaintance of hers... Oh my god, now Susan just wants to go back and strangle Reed to death and die with him. How can she still have the face to live like a human being?
Susan briefly explained what happened. Johnny went out to fool around and suddenly a fire broke out, burning all the hair on his body and almost getting burned. So the charlatan De realized the genetic mutation of himself and others, and then he and Susan both had their own changes. The charlatan De was just about to find the stone man for a check-up, but he didn't expect the stone man to run away.
The three of them searched for a whole night and finally found the trace of the stone man. However, they did not expect that the stone man would cause such a huge traffic disaster. The onlookers blocked the road. Susan and others were eager to save him. The charlatan De really dared to give advice, and Susan really dared to do what the charlatan De said.
After finishing her words, Susan looked at Knox next to Bai Ye, a little puzzled: "This lady..."
Knox looks 30% similar to Susan, but Knox's temperament tends to be cold and dark, because she was an agent and has killed too many people, while Susan's temperament is very sunny and sweet. She is a talented and beautiful girl with elegant temperament. In terms of charm, Susan is more charming than Knox. There is no way, because Knox is almost years old, and Susan has the buff of the Invisible Woman.
"Knox, Victoria Knox." She smiled and stretched out her hand to Susan: "Your name is Susan Storm, right? I know you. We are relatives!"
"what?"
Susan was confused but felt it made sense.
Given how similar she looks to Knox, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they are sisters.
Knox said that she and Susan were really distant relatives. She had met Susan once when she was very young, but Susan was still very young at that time and probably didn't remember her.
Speaking of which, the American top leaders are really a circle. In the end, they are all in that circle.
Johnny and Captain America look similar and are relatives. Susan and Johnny's parents are both high-ranking members of the U.S. military. Knox and Susan are also relatives. Knox's uncle is a senior CIA executive...
Without some blue-blooded aristocratic blood in you, you really can't get into the high-level circles in America.
Knox and Susan got to know each other and had a pleasant chat.
Not long after, Johnny and Shengun De came over.
Johnny gasped, "Sis, are you okay?"
But Johnny was stunned. He looked at Susan and then at Knox. How come he suddenly had two sisters?
"Why are you here too?"
Johnny looked at Bai Ye again.
Bai Ye winked at Johnny and showed an evil smile: "You have Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian sisters, right? Johnny, you will see how I take down Storm and Knox sisters in the future!"
Chapter 179 I hold the Blue Silver Grass in my right hand and the Clear Sky Hammer in my left hand.
When people get up, first the grass and then the hammer
"Why are you smiling so obscenely?"
Johnny looked at Bai Ye with disdain.
"Fuck you!" Bai Ye glared at Johnny and said, "You're a guy who's filming with other people, and you think you can call me a slut?"
It was Bai Ye who introduced the two parties to each other.
In terms of blood relationship, Knox is Susan and Johnny's distant cousin.
Reed, Susan's boyfriend, greeted her warmly when he heard that Knox was Susan's cousin.
Next, Bai Ye, Knox, Johnny, and Reed stood in a circle at the edge of the bridge so that Susan behind them could change her clothes - now she was wearing nothing but Knox's suit.
Susan cursed as she changed her clothes.
"Reed you bastard!"
"Why don't you take off your clothes in public to attract their attention?"
"Has your brain been eaten by a dog? How dare you come up with such a stupid idea!"
Reed was scolded so badly that he couldn't even raise his head. Now that he thinks about it, letting his girlfriend take off her clothes in public for everyone to see is indeed a bit... what.
"Is there anyone who dares to watch me take off my clothes?"
Reid beeped quietly.
"What did you say?"
"nothing?"
"Sister, I think we should stop arguing. Ben seems to be almost unable to hold on."
Johnny said, pointing to the stone man Ben in the middle of the bridge.
Susan then gave up scolding Reed and went forward to find the stone man.
Next, Bai Ye took Knox to watch the famous battle of the Fantastic Four.
Among a long line of cars that were rear-ended, there was a car carrying gas and there was fire around it, and among several other cars there was a little girl.
Johnny was a bit of a jerk, but he still had some basic kindness in his heart, and he rushed over to save the little girl.
"boom--!"
There was a loud bang and the gas exploded. Johnny didn't have time to escape with the little girl. He just instinctively protected the little girl and turned his back to the explosion.
With Johnny Torch's ability, the flames produced by the explosion were directly absorbed by him, and nothing happened.
But Johnny's ability had just awakened, and it was impossible for him to be so powerful that he could absorb all the surging flames and shock waves. He only absorbed the point that was rushing towards him.
then.
The explosion destroyed the heavy fire truck that was rushing over from the other side of the bridge, and on the other side, the flames of the explosion rushed towards the crowd who were watching the excitement on Bai Ye's side.
This time, Susan used her force field control ability in a hurry, covering the flames and shock waves, compressing them into a narrow space and exploding them, so no one was hurt.
As for the heavy fire truck that almost fell off the Brooklyn Bridge, it was grabbed by the Stone Man, who used his extraordinary strength to pull the heavy fire truck up.
Influenced by American values, the audience, New York police, and firefighters all applauded Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards, Invisible Woman Susan Storm, Human Torch Johnny Storm, and The Thing Ben Grimm, calling them superheroes.
Bai Ye scratched his head fiercely.
It’s so confusing!
Whether it was the rear-end collision of dozens of vehicles or the loss of life and property caused by a huge explosion, didn’t it essentially all start because the Stone Man recklessly crashed and stopped a heavy truck on a bridge with high-speed traffic?
Isn't all the responsibility on him?
The Thing just made some compensations, and Johnny and Susan also helped the Thing make up for it. Why can they still be called superheroes?
I don’t understand, I really don’t understand!
Perhaps it is because Bai Ye is still a Chinese at heart and holds Chinese values, and things like world views, once formed, are difficult to change, so there is a sense of incompatibility between these American values.
"Now that Susan and her friends have become heroes, what should we do about the tens of millions of dollars in traffic losses?"
Bai Ye muttered.
"They have all become heroes, so I think there should be no criminal responsibility. As for the compensation, it will probably be paid by the insurance company, the city government, and Susan and the others themselves." Knox shrugged and said, "That's several million dollars. I hope Susan and the others can afford it."
"Then I guess they don't have it." Bai Ye laughed and said, "That Reed is close to bankruptcy. Susan and Johnny definitely don't have that much money, unless they kill their parents, inherit all the estate, and then use it to pay. As for the Stone Man, he is even poorer. He follows Reed... Hero? Hehe, what's the point of being a hero without money."
Tony can be a hero because he has plenty of money and power. Gwen can be a hero because her father is the New York City Police Commissioner, who specially recruited her into the system to become a non-staff member cooperating with the police. She has no salary, but she gets bonuses for her work. As for the Fantastic Four...if Reed Richards cannot find a way to make money for the team as soon as possible, then the four of them will be bankrupt collectively soon.
Then, at the intersection of the bridge, there was an extraordinary press conference.
A bunch of reporters rushed over like sharks smelling blood.
There is no news in New York right now that is more valuable than a superhero being interviewed.
Iron Man Tony Stark doesn't care much about reporters, Spider-Woman never accepts interviews, and this is the first time they have encountered such a unique superhero like the Fantastic Four.
Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards was interviewed and talked about the reason why the four of them have super powers. That is, they were exposed to the solar storm and affected by cosmic radiation, which led to genetic mutation. It is not yet known whether this mutation is benign... a bunch of scientific terms.
Johnny still likes to show off. Relying on his face that is very similar to Captain America, he said that he and Captain America are related by blood. He has been influenced by his ancestors since he was a child and aspired to become a hero. Today he is honored to inherit the aspirations of his ancestors and become a hero.
Now many female reporters and female audiences were cheering for Johnny, while most of the male reporters and male audiences looked at Johnny who was talking nonsense with very strange expressions.
Is Captain America's intention in training you, his descendant, to shoot a 3VS1 romantic action movie?
Of course, no one is stupid enough to come out and sing a different tune and go against the trend at this time, but everyone is having a hard time trying not to laugh.
