Chapter 265: 267
Heroes of Marvel Chapter 265-267
The next day, after looking for a reason to ask for leave from the school, Lin Rui left home early. Thor contacted Lin Rui in the morning. He came to New York by car for the morning shift.
Now the Golden Trio of the New York Empire State High School are all busy, Harry is out of school because of his company. Peter often changes into Spiderman to stop crimes and he has no time to participate in various school activities. As for Lin Rui, he also has many things to do, but because he has a good excuse named Tony Stark(internship at Stark Industries, to help Tony do some experiments or something), his parents would not say much.
Driving his own jeep on the road, Lin Rui remembered that today is Monday. Why is he driving out? !! As he is on the road, Thor will be here long after he finishes the morning rush. If Lin Rui knew it, he would've taken the subway himself. Although the subway in New York was dead in the morning, it was better than the road.
Lin Rui, who was stuck in the road, looked at the roadside and saw a large display screen in the building that happened to show a promotional image of Captain America Rogers. Since Captain America's "Resurrection", the US government's propaganda for this hero has never stopped. The streets and alleys are full of Captain Rogers photos and videos.
"Ah! I don't know if Captain Rogers has found Bucky now. It has been Sixty Years, many things can change in that time. The two good friends don't know what will happen in the future. However, the progress against Hydra seems to have slowed down a lot recently, isn't it? Did SHIELD give up?" Looking at that huge picture of Steve, Lin Rui couldn't help thinking.
In addition to the fact that Hydra was decimated by SHIELD at first, it was difficult for SHIELD to dig up hidden Hydra bases, which resulted in Lin Rui's current mainline quest process being very slow. It's been so long and the quest to destroy Hydra's mainline quest is only finished by 55 percent.
"Will I have to do it myself? But, I don't know where Hydra is hiding now!" Thinking of his unfinished quest, Lin Rui felt helpless.
"Mom! Spiderman!" Just when Lin Rui was stuck on the road thinking about some things, a stopped to his right side and a little kid put his head out of the window and shouting excitedly while pointing at the sky.
"Baby, don't put your head out of the window, ok? Spiderman wants to talk to you if he sees it!" Just as the little kid sticks his head out of the window to look at Spiderman, the voice of the little kid's mother came from next to him.
"Uh ..." Lin Rui, who had just extended his head halfway, heard this sentence a little awkwardly, and he seemed to be doing a bad demonstration.
Brush!
However, just as Lin Rui thought about whether to retract his head, a red figure had fallen quickly from the air and had landed on his roof before he retracted his head. Boom! It was Spiderman. When he flew in midair, he saw Lin Rui's little jeep stuck in the ground. He was still wondering why Lin Rui drove out at this time.
"Mom! Spiderman! Spiderman is here!" Seeing that Spiderman had landed in front of him, the child who had obediently retracted his head crawled out again while shouting excitedly.
This time, the young mother didn't stop her child anymore. On the contrary, she also took out her phone with excitement and seemed to want to take a photo of her child with Spiderman.
"Hey! Spiderman, can you be careful! You almost stomped my jeep!" Because Lin Rui suddenly landed on Lin Rui's car, Lin Rui, whose half of his head was stuck out of the window, was somewhat frightened. So he looked up at Spiderman on the top of his jeep and complained.
"Why didn't you go to school?" Peter didn't care about Lin Rui's complaining. Peter half-limbed out the roof and whispered to Lin Rui below.
"I am going to the station to pick up someone, but I forgot that it was Monday morning rush. What about you? Were you up late? Are you going to fly to school like this?" Lin Rui replied with his head facing the Spiderman mask.
"Pick someone up? A friend? You still need to drive to pick someone up?" Peter asked curiously when he heard Lin Rui's answer. Does anyone still pick up a friend at the station? Is it a girl?
"Well, he is a friend. I can introduce you after I settle him in. I think you would be glad to meet him. By the way, it's not a girl." Lin Rui turned his head a little bit and answered. In the end, Lin Rui seemed to guess what Peter thought, and made up another sentence.
"Oh, really? Then I'll come to you in the evening." Finally, Peter straightened himself on the roof. A few words to Lin Rui are enough. If you continue, you will attract others' attention.
"Ah! Spiderman! Spiderman!" On the right side of Lin Rui's car, the boy kept waving at Peter and shouted.
"Hey! Children shouldn't stick out their body out of the window!" Peter reminded him gently looking at the child sticking out of the window.
Click!
Just as Peter was talking to the kid, the young mother sitting in the car happened to find an angle to take a picture of her child and Spiderman.
"I'm going!" Peter wasn't planning to stay here anymore. He was really late.
Thwip!
He raised his hand and shot spider silk at the side building, and Spiderman flew out the next moment.
"Ah! Spiderman! Spiderman!" Peter had already flown away, and the kid on Lin Rui's right was still waving his hands excitedly.
"Ah! Little boy!" With his head back into the car, Lin Rui muttered softly.
After a little more traffic, the traffic finally started to move, Lin Rui's jeep was driving in the traffic towards the station where Thor would arrive. As for the scene that happened on the road just now, it's not strange to everyone. Spiderman is the most grounded one in Vigilante in New York. Even if you get lost on the road, Spiderman may appear to help you. Therefore, it is not uncommon to encounter Spiderman on the way to work, and no one has linked Spiderman to the young man driving the jeep.
After another hour, Lin Rui finally arrived at the station. However, Lin Rui had an uncomfortable journey. Lin Rui wants to ask Tony for an anti-gravity car, which is still in the development stage.
Bang!
Slamming the door, Lin Rui gets out. The station that Thor arrives at is not a remote place in Brooklyn, New York. As soon as Lin Rui gets off, she sees a huge crowd of people coming and going in the area, many of them foreigners. After all, many people visit the United States every year, and New York is a city that almost every foreigner comes to.
"Hey! Jackson!" Just as Lin Rui stood looking around the station gate, a rough voice passed through the crowd into Lin Rui's ears.
Lin Rui heard Thor's voice as soon as he walked to the station door, and with Thor's one-meter nine height, he looked very conspicuous at the station. However, although Lin Rui heard Thor calling himself that he was walking towards him, he did not meet him, instead, he looked in the other direction of the station.
"Hmm? It's that person, why are they still in New York?" Looking at the familiar figure in the crowd ahead, Lin Rui muttered in a low voice, as if he saw something curious.
Shout!
"Hey! Jackson! What are you looking at?!" Just as Lin Rui was staring in that direction, Thor had strode in front of him, he reached out his hand and waved it in front of Lin Rui's eyes to say hello.
At this time, in addition to wearing casual clothes, Thor carried a larger bag with some clothes in it. Thor had been living in his girlfriend Jane Foster's apartment before, and he didn't have much luggage, so he was thrown out of the house without needing a minute.
"Cough! It's all right. I saw a friend, but they are gone now." Turning to face the big man standing in front of him, Lin Rui raises his head slightly and answers simply.
As for the direction in which Lin Rui looked before, the familiar figure had already disappeared, and Lin Rui could only suppress his doubts. After all, it's no surprise that that person is still in New York.
"Is that so? So what are we going to do? Go straight to a place to live?" Not caring what Lin Rui says about his friends, Thor is now thinking about the rest of his life in New York.
As for the recent break up with Jane Foster, Lin Rui can't see Thor's sadness anyway. Is this the Asgard view of love? Or as Loki told Jane Foster before, Thor, who is over 1000 years old, has fallen in love many times in Asgard, and Jane is just a small interlude in his life on earth. Lin Rui could only think like this in his heart as this situation has nothing to do with him anyway.
"Well, I will show you a few apartments for rent that I looked at last night, and I contacted the landlord to go to the house today. You don't have any luggage, so you can live in directly after you have selected one." Lin Rui faintly replied.
"Haha! I knew you had the ability to help me! You are indeed my friend!" Thor said happily when he heard Lin Rui's words, and he reached out to pat Lin Rui's shoulder.
Huh ~
At the sight of Thor's outstretched hand, Lin Rui steps back a little and avoids Thor. This big guy is always pat him without holding himself back, so he doesn't want him to pat him.
"Well, let's go now. In addition to where you live, you have to think about how you will live in the future. This is Earth, not Asgard! You are no longer a prince here!" Lin Rui, who had escaped Thor turned around and he also reminded Thor as he walked towards his jeep.
"I know, I will go to find a job. I think maybe this is one of the reasons why my father exiled me to the earth. My previous life was spent as the Prince of Asgard, and it was only by not tasting the life of ordinary people that my proud and disrespectful character was formed. If I can live on earth as an ordinary person, I may regain my father's trust and return to Asgard. " Walking after Lin Rui towards the car, Thor also speaks seriously.
It seems that Thor's two months on earth were not entirely fruitless. At least he could see some of Odin's intentions. If Thor can figure out for himself what his father means, then Lin Rui will be spared from more effort.
Thor is strong, but not nearly as strong as Odin in its heyday. Now that Odin is old, no one knows how long he will be able to rule over and control the Nine Realms, but Thor the Crown Prince is young and proud and he is clearly not ready to take up the mantle of being a King. Therefore, if Thor can change his views and personality while being exiled on earth, he will become the real Thor, a strong man beyond Odin, which is the original intention of Odin to exile Thor. Loki must have seen his father's intention, so he asked Lin Rui to help Thor.
Hearing Thor's words, Lin Rui's eyes flickered, and then he said, "You know it's all right, then, I'll help you."
"Hey! Of course, we are friends!" Thor smiles and pats Lin Rui on the shoulder. This time Lin Rui does not duck.
"But why do I think that you look different?" Having walked to the side of the jeep, Lin Rui looks at Thor up and down with slanting eyes and finally asks him some questions.
"Er ... What's different? Am I not still the same?" It seems that Lin Rui's observation is a little uncomfortable, and Thor throws the bag into the jeep.
"Have you put on weight?" When Thor gets on the jeep, Lin Rui asks curiously.
Bang!
"No!" Thor slammed the door shut and denied it. How could Thor of Asgard admit that he had gained weight on earth?? He can only blame the earth's fast food for meeting Thor's taste, and he is now an ordinary human being so its normal that he would gain weight.
"All right, but eat less fast food. I think you'll like Chinese food, too." Not caring about Thor's neglect of himself, he reminded him.
"Free of charge?" Hearing Lin Rui's words, Thor brazenly asks.
"Twenty percent off!
...
Just as Lin Rui drove the jeep to take Thor away from the station, a handsome figure suddenly emerged from the bustling crowd at the back of the station, silently watching Lin Rui's departure. If Lin Rui is still here at this time, he would be a little surprised, because this person turned out to be Wang Xin, the girl from the China who he met at Washington University before.
"Sure enough, this person is not easy. I was almost spotted just now." Watching Lin Rui's jeep slowly driving away, Wang Xin whispered.
Just as Wang Xin watched Lin Rui go away, another figure that Lin Rui would be familiar with emerged from the back of the crowd, it was Chen Ling.
"Ah! Xiaoxin, the car is about to leave, let's go!" Coming towards Wang Xin, Chen Xiaoling said anxiously.
"Well, let's go." Nodded, Wang Xin looked back.
Then, the two women from China that Lin Rui had met disappeared into the crowd again. However, judging from Wang Xin's performances, maybe they are not so simple students.
In the following time, Lin Rui takes Thor to see the three rental apartments he selected last night, and finally, Thor chooses the apartment closest to the restaurant that Lin Rui's Uncle owns. Lin Rui doesn't have any problem with this, since it is obvious that he and Thor will see each other more often in the future, so it is better to live close to each other.
So, after paying the rent for a few months, Thor just throws the bag away and goes to live in it. Next, Thor is going to be looking for a job in the big, busy city of New York. Otherwise, he wouldn't have any extra money to pay for rent or food.
"Come on, let's go and eat. I'm tired after running for so long." Looking at Thor, Lin Rui shouts.
In addition to eating, he will also help Thor to buy some daily necessities in the nearby shopping mall. Although the apartment has matching furniture or something, there are some necessary things to buy.
"Well, let's go to your uncle's restaurant to eat! Just show me the way!" Hearing that he was going to have a meal, Thor, who had just collapsed, sprang up with a thrill and spoke excitedly.
"Foodie!" Seeing the appearance of Thor, Lin Rui made a tacitly sarcastic remark in his heart. He doesn't know what Odin or Loki would think about Thor's tendency to become a foodie in exile on earth, but he imagines that they wouldn't be too happy.
Next, Lin Rui went out with Thor to a Chinese restaurant opened by his uncle for dinner. After Lin Rui and Thor left, the door of the apartment opposite them suddenly opened and a beautiful girl stepped out, staring at the direction of the elevator, then she picked up the mobile phone: "The target has found a residence. Currently, everything is normal".
"Ok, keep watching." A calm reply came from the other end of the phone.
It turned out that SHIELD, who had been monitoring Thor, knew that he had come to Lin Rui for help. Moreover, SHIELD also knew that Lin Rui helped Thor choose three places to settle down, and even arranged people in each place in advance.
The SHIELD agents who monitor Thor are no stranger to Lin Rui's identity, Jackson Lin, who is listed by SHIELD as a Secondary Sequence Candidate. However, because of his friendship with Tony Stark, maybe Jackson will not be recruited by SHIELD. However, this does not prevent SHIELD from paying attention to such a good talent.
In addition, Thor, the first alien visitor on Earth, met Lin Rui, so SHIELD attaches great importance to Lin Rui. Of course, SHIELD doesn't do anything to Lin Rui but it's still best to keep a close watch on him without disturbing his life. Lin Rui wouldn't care if he found SHIELD around him, as long as their behavior was not excessive.
Of course, Thor doesn't know all this, he is now a mortal on the earth and is worrying about his future life.
...
"David, why do you think that Ancient One is looking for that Mirage Knight?" Just when Lin Rui took Thor to his uncle's restaurant for dinner, David asked Rick as they appeared in the Sanctum in New York.
"This, I don't know. We Sorcerers rarely came in contact with ordinary people. Even if this Mirage Knight is not an ordinary person, there is no reason for Ancient One to look for him." Confused about this situation, Rick replied.
"Did Ancient One notice anything from Mirage Knight the last time he dealt with that Demon?" David asked again.
They were all present when they dealt with the Demon last time, and they all saw Mirage Knight's attack. Although Mirage Knight and Tony's full blow also surprised David a little, they are not from the same world. Did the Ancient One plan to team up with these supernatural beings from the ordinary world to deal with the demons? However, many of their superpowers are of little use to the sorcerers, which is why the sorcerers have not been known to the outside world.
"I don't know about this, but since Ancient One has ordered it, we can do it. Did you notice anything about Mirage Knight last time? Did you see what he looked like?" Rick shook his head and asked David.
"No, I don't know how we are going to find him." David shook his head helplessly.
"Me too, but this guy seems to have contact with a few familiar people. For example, the Spiderman who likes to fly around New York."
"You know Spiderman ?!"
"Why, can't it? Spiderman is now New York's most popular Vigilante, and his reputation is much higher than Mirage Knight."
"However, it seems that Mirage Knight's strength and what he does seem to be more important."
"Well, so, let me go to Spiderman."
"Rick, are you ~ Spiderman's fans?"
Rick: "..."
Since Ancient One was looking for Mirage Knight, David would do just that. However, they didn't see Mirage Knight's face or pay attention to him. At this time, he was hard to find. However, Rick seems to be interested in Spiderman and even knows that Mirage Knight has a relationship with Spiderman.
"However, why did Thor suddenly came to New York? Even if he broke up with his girlfriend and was kicked out of the house, he shouldn't have come so far away." Rick asked as he changed the topic.
"Whatever the reason, him being in New York is better anyway, he is closer to us. If there is something going on in the future, we would be able to react faster." Not minding Rick's question in changing the topic, David said indifferently.
Anyway, Ancient One has already said that regardless of Thor's life on earth, we don't need to care as long as he didn't die on earth. Whether he's in New York or Washington, we don't need to care much.
"That's right. Then I'll see what he's doing in New York tonight. Now ..."
"Now you can go find Spiderman." David laughs at Rick's face as he said this.
Shout!
Not in the mood for joking with David, Rick walked into his room a little awkwardly. However, the two sorcerers responsible for protecting Thor's security did not know that it was their somewhat lazy attitude that made them miss the chance to find Mirage Knight in the first place. At this time, Mirage Knight was right next to Thor!
Given sorcerer's special sense, they would have recognized Lin Rui as Mirage Knight if they had seen him up close. However, after losing this opportunity, no one knows when they will find Lin Rui.
...
Apart from the fact that Thor and Jane Foster broke up and several forces tracked Thor, there were other restless forces lurking in New York City. One of those forces is behind Francis, who last fought against the X-Men. After resting for so long, they finally put out their claws again. This time, though, it is unclear to whom they intend to reach.
