Nelson-Murdoch Law Firm.

Matt and his friend and law partner, Fergie Nelson, were trying to find clues from a pile of information.

A clue about Ben Urick's death, because their friend Ben was murdered some time ago.

According to the intelligence they have collected so far, the person who killed Ben Urick was Kingpin. Matt and Fergie Nelson were discussing this discovery.

"Ben died at the hands of Kingpin. He must have discovered some secret of Kingpin."

"Well, Ben was a famous local journalist, but his death was not reported at all, and his files and notes were not found at the scene of his death, and the hard drive was formatted."

"This shows that this secret is very important to Jin Bing, so he did not hesitate to kill a famous local reporter."

"He even bribed other newspapers not to report the incident, just to keep the secret hidden."

"I think there is only one thing that can make Kingpin do this."

At this point, Matt and Foggy Nelson raised their heads at the same time, looked at each other and said

"That's his criminal evidence."

"Hee Ha Ha......Hip Hop......"

Just as Matt and Fergie Nelson were talking in unison, a brisk laugh came from the reception desk, interrupting the tense atmosphere in the office.

Fergie Nelson shook his head helplessly, then leaned over to Matt's ear and said,

"Matt, I don't mean anything by saying this, I just think it's not appropriate to bring your girlfriend to work."

After hearing what his friend said, Matt's mouth twitched slightly, and finally he spoke after holding it in for a long time.

"Don't get the wrong idea. Tamayo is just my good friend. She is just staying here for a while."

It turned out that the one who laughed at the reception desk was Tamayo, who had agreed with Matt before.

The only difference was that although Tamayo was wearing a dark purple kimono as usual, she had a lot more smiles on her face. She was watching cartoons in the lobby and laughed out loud from time to time.

It felt like a goddess from heaven had fallen into the mortal world, with a little more breath of life.

It seemed that Tamayo had been very happy in the real world during this period. Looking at Tamayo who was grinning in the office in the lobby, Foggy Nelson obviously didn't believe Matt's words, and couldn't help but speak again.

"Don't lie to me, it's not the first day we met, some things......"

But before Fergie Nelson could finish his words, Matt's phone started ringing.

Fergie Nelson had to stop what he was going to say and wait for Matt to finish the call.

Matt picked up the phone on the table and answered it.

"Hello, this is Nielsen-Murdoch LLP"

"Yeah, okay, thanks, Officer Brett."......

After talking on the phone for a while, Matt hung up the phone with a serious face, and Fergie Nelson, who had been waiting impatiently, asked:

"Officer Bright called you at this time. Did he find any clues?"

"Well, Officer Brett just told me that for some reason, many police officers in the department took overtime to patrol Hell's Kitchen today, which is very inconsistent with their usual behavior."

"So he suspected that these colleagues might have been bribed by Jin Bing, and now they were helping Jin Bing find someone."

After hearing Matt's words, Fergie Nelson seemed to have discovered something and continued to speak.

"Matt, do you think there is any connection between the person Kingpin wants to capture and Ben's death?"

After hearing what Virg Nelson said, Matt seemed to have discovered some secrets from it, and couldn't help but stand up and said

"It was Hoffman. Only Hoffman could make Jin Bing go to such great lengths, because he had the evidence of Jin Bing's crimes in his hands."

"Fergie, you continue to look for these clues, and I will go investigate."

"Well, you have to pay attention too."

Matt stood up and grabbed Tamayo, who was watching TV and laughing, and left the office together.

"Hey, are we going out now?"

"Um"

"The sun hasn't set yet, I'll go get an umbrella first"......

In the evening, at the intersection of 53rd and 10th Streets in Hell's Kitchen,

Matt and Tamayo were hiding in a secret corner, watching a fierce gunfight below.

However, unlike Matt, who was watching the gunfight seriously, Tamayo seemed very weak, as if she was about to collapse.

Matt noticed this and couldn't help but say

"What's wrong? Are you okay?"

Tamayo, who was squatting on the ground and breathing heavily, rested for a while after hearing Matt's words before speaking.

"It's okay, it's mainly because we were too close to the sun today, so we need to rest for a while to recover."

Hearing this, Matt said doubtfully

"sun?"

""Hmm."

Zhu Shi, who was standing by, obviously noticed Matt's confusion and started to explain.

"Do you still remember the fight between you and Yaba Yu that night?"

"I told you before that there is another way to deal with ghosts, but it cannot be used at night. In fact, that method is the sun."

"We ghosts are all transformed from humans. After becoming ghosts, we have life and power beyond humans."

"But this is not a complete ghost after all, so after becoming a ghost, we all have to pay a price."

Matt was obviously attracted by Tamayo's words at this time, and couldn't help but continue to ask

"What’s the cost?"

"Cannibalism and fear of sunlight"

"What!!!"

Looking at Matt who was stunned, Zhu Shi continued calmly.

"That's right, after we transform into a ghost, we will slowly lose our appetite for normal food and become full of desire for human flesh and blood."

"At the same time, they are also very afraid of sunlight. Some ordinary ghosts will immediately turn into dust once exposed to sunlight."

"Only a very small number of ghosts who have reached the level of the Twelve Demon Moons can barely move around in the sun for a while, and even Kibuki Qianwuzan is no exception."

"This is why Muzan Kibutsuji came to New York City to perform the mysterious ceremony so persistently, in order to evolve himself into a perfect demon without any flaws."

Hearing this, Matt finally understood why Tamayo, who lived in his house during this period, did not eat anything.

And why he always brought an umbrella with him when he asked Tamayo to go out at noon, which made Matt worried.

"Then why do you......"

"Don't worry, I have transformed my body over the past few decades and can now drink a small amount of human blood instead of eating human flesh and blood. As for the sun, it should be fine as long as you pay attention."

"I always go to the hospital to buy blood myself."

After listening to what Tamayo said, Matt opened his mouth slightly, and felt as if something was surging in his heart at this moment. He was obviously heartbroken for this seemingly weak but firm Tamayo in front of him, and silently thought in his heart

"Muzan Kibutsuji......"

But before Matt could think for long, Tamayo pulled Matt's uniform and said

"Don't be in a daze, everyone down there is almost dead."

Hearing what Tamayo said, Matt, who was lost in thought, suddenly woke up and used his super senses again to sense the situation down there.

After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Tamayo:

"Fortunately, the most important person is fine. I'll go down first. You just wait for me here, Tamayo."

Matt jumped down and hid in this secret hiding place.

Tamayo watched Matt leave with a gentle look on his face.......

At this time, in this secret hiding place, a group of corrupt police had killed all of Leland Osley's men and were walking towards Hoffman step by step. Hoffman sat on a worn-out stool, closed his eyes in despair, and waited for death to come.......Bang -

As time passed, Hoffman did not die. Instead, he heard the sound of hitting.

Hoffman opened his eyes in confusion to see what happened.

When he opened his eyes, Matt had already killed the corrupt policemen, walked up to him, and said to him:

"Hoffman, you are���You are being hunted by Jin Bing's men. You know that your only way to survive is to testify against him."

Hoffman said bitterly after listening to Matt's words.

"Daredevil, this is impossible. The entire police station is full of Kingpin's men. I will die if I testify against him."

While Hoffman was talking, Matt had already taken a stool and sat down, and continued to say to Hoffman

"No, you can talk to Officer Bright, he is trustworthy and he will definitely help you"

"You are going to die anyway, so why don't you believe me this time."

Hearing this, Hoffman finally nodded after hesitating for a moment.

Matt on the opposite side finally breathed a sigh of relief after sensing Hoffman's action.

Because he knew that as long as Hoffman corrected him, Kingpin would definitely be sent to prison by himself.

Then Hell's Kitchen will usher in true peace.

"Ah!"

But before Matt could be happy for long, a piercing sound came into Matt's brain, followed by Tamayo's screams outside.

"It's the Mirror Beast. Oops, Tamayo is still outside......."

Thinking of this, Matt's expression changed, and he immediately stood up and ran out, leaving a message behind.

"Hoffman, please wait here. I'll be back soon......."
