Become Aquaman from Black Robe

Several days have passed since the meeting with Butcher, and Kevin is still guessing when Butcher will take action.

But he didn't expect Butcher to act so decisively and quickly.

Kevin was obviously on the phone with Madeleine in the morning, talking about the recent documentary, but in the evening he heard the news of Madeleine's disappearance.

Don't know how he did it.

Madeleine's disappearance is a big event for the entire Walter Group, especially the seven-man team under Madeleine's management, which has to go to the conference room to discuss how to find Madeleine at this critical moment.

In other words, under the orders of the motherland, I had to go to the conference room.

Kevin talked to Starlight on the phone and told her about it, asking her to rush to the Seven first.

Kevin himself called Huey's phone number to confirm their progress.

As a result, I got a prompt that the phone was turned off.

"Okay, cautious enough."

When the call failed to go through, Kevin knew that Butcher's side must have cut off all communications as a precaution.

Kevin didn't care about this either. Anyway, even if he couldn't get specific information from Butcher, there would definitely be relevant information from the Sevens.

After all, Butcher's kidnapping of Madeleine was aimed at the people of his motherland.

With his character, he will definitely provoke the people of the motherland.

This is to be expected.

He rushed from home to the meeting room of the Sevens team non-stop. It was extremely rare for the Sevens team to gather together here.

Everyone is here except the dead Transparent, and Kevin is the last one to arrive.

"You're late, Deepsea."

As soon as Kevin arrived, people from the motherland habitually said to Kevin.

The struggle between the two has not yet been fully revealed, but the stingy man from the motherland will not miss any opportunity to attack Kevin.

Even in this situation, he still wanted to say a few sarcastic words about Kevin.

Kevin smiled slightly, looked at the time on the peripheral display screen, and did not confront the people of the motherland. He apologized very cooperatively:

"Sorry, the work at Godokin University has been busy recently, so I'm a little late."

Perhaps because of Madeleine's disappearance, the people of the motherland were not in the mood to quarrel with Kevin.

He had a sullen face, not intending to find trouble with Kevin, and said directly to everyone:

"Guys, we're in trouble now."

As he spoke, he pressed the remote control, and a picture appeared on one of the large screens in the conference room.

The picture shows a wall.

The wall was spray-painted with red fonts in red letters. The blood-red fonts formed a sentence, a sentence specifically provoking the Seven.

——Now that your mother has been arrested by us, come and find her if you can! People of the motherland!

This sentence was full of provocation, and the players present had different expressions.

The locomotive looked at the blood-red font with astonishment on his face, and Maeve glanced at Kevin subconsciously for some reason.

Starlight's expression didn't change much. She just stared at the line of words on the screen and frowned.

Black tilted his head without any expression.

As for Kevin, he suppressed his smile, glanced at the man from the motherland, whose face was as dark as ink, and said cooperatively:

"Is this... provoking us?"

"This is a declaration of war! Deep sea! This is a declaration of war on us!"

Because of the disappearance of Madeleine and the emergence of an enemy targeting the seven-man team as a whole, the people of the motherland no longer cared about their grievances with Kevin and directly replaced everyone present with 'we'.

He used the word "declaration of war" to express the seriousness of this matter.

The motherland patted the table, and there were dented fingerprints on the steel table.

With anger in his eyes, he glanced at the members of the seven-man team one by one:

"We need to find this group of people, and we need to find Madeleine! Let them know that the Seven is not something they can provoke!"

After the motherland finished speaking, he immediately began to issue orders:

"Locomotive, the search work in the city will be left to you and Black. You will be responsible for the search work in the deep sea and the sea. Starlight will be responsible for assisting. Maeve and I will find Madeleine as soon as possible. We must not let her suffer any harm." Hurt! Do you hear me clearly?"

"receive."

"No problem, Captain."

Locomotive and Kevin answered one after another.

In the case of Madeleine's disappearance, no one wants to offend the people of the motherland, including Kevin.

He deeply understands that the people of the motherland are like dynamite barrels that can explode at any moment. If Kevin dares to raise different opinions, the people of the motherland may really start a fight with Kevin here.

Kevin is not very afraid of the people of the motherland now, or he really wants to fight with him to test the strength of the people of the motherland and his own physique.

But it would be better not to fight this unnecessary fight.

In a rare joint move by the Seven, Homelander and Maeve left the Seven's rooftop together to search from the sky.

Locomotive glanced at Kevin, then at Starlight next to Kevin, without saying anything, and disappeared into the meeting room of the Seven Team after a gust of wind passed by.

Xuanzi didn't know if he had heard Edgar talk about something. Before leaving, he nodded to Kevin and then turned to leave.

Finally only Kevin and Annie were left in the room.

It wasn't until everyone left that Annie had time to chat with Kevin:

"Ms. Madeleine is missing? She...how is it possible? Aren't the people of the motherland always watching her?"

"The people of the motherland are not watching her all the time."

Kevin sat on the chair and said to Annie:

"Madeline probably took her son to the hospital for a check-up as usual, so someone took the opportunity. She usually doesn't bring any escorts at this time."

Around Madeleine, there were almost no capable guards other than people from her motherland, and she actually didn't need a bodyguard.

Because the people of the motherland are always available.

But unfortunately, the people of the motherland cannot always be with Madeleine.

When Madeleine took her son to the hospital for a check-up, the motherland would not be there.

It's a bit funny to say that the people of the motherland seem to be a little jealous of Madeleine's son and dislike his existence because Madeleine cares more about her son than him.

Therefore, when Madeleine is with her son, people from the motherland generally do not stay with Madeleine for a long time.

This gave Butcher the opportunity to kidnap Madeleine without anyone noticing.

"Then let's go to the sea now...or?"

Anne asks Kevin for his advice.

Kevin picked up the pen on the conference table, turned it on his finger, thought for a moment, and said:

"You go to the nearest body of water and wait for me. I still have some things to do."

"What's going on? Do you need my help?"

"No, it's just a small matter. You go over there first. I'll be there soon."

Raising his hand and rubbing Annie's head, Kevin said with a smile.

Seeing Kevin's smile, Annie stopped asking. She nodded obediently and then left the conference room.

After everyone had left, Kevin waited in the conference room for a while before picking up the internal phone in the seven-man team conference room and preparing to contact Edgar.

Perhaps Edgar had been paying attention here. Kevin had just called and the call was immediately connected.

"Did you do what happened to Stillwell?"

"Sir, what are you talking about? What does this matter have to do with me?"

Facing Edgar's inquiry, Kevin asked in confusion.

At this time, even if Kevin did it, he would never admit it here, not to mention, he was not the one who kidnapped Madeleine Stillwell.

"..."

There was a little silence on the other end of the phone, and then a chuckle came:

"Then what do you mean by calling me...?"

"Ms. Madeleine is missing, and I'm not sure when she will be found. And if I remember correctly, she is in charge of the group's current strategy of entering the Ministry of National Defense, right?"

"Indeed, so her disappearance really gives me a headache."

"Then Mr. Edgar, if you don't mind, you can let me handle this matter."

"Haha, let's wait until Madeleine is completely nowhere to be found."

Edgar did not agree, but he also did not refuse.

After he laughed a few times, he cut off communication with Kevin.

Edgar hung up the phone, but a smile appeared on Kevin's face.

Although Edgar didn't seem to agree to anything, Kevin knew that as long as Madeleine really couldn't come back, Edgar would hand over Madeleine's job to him.

By then, Kevin will be able to successfully become the management of Walter Group.

The plan went well and Kevin was smiling.

But we’ll talk about the future later. For now, it’s more important to do the ‘business’ first.

After finishing the communication with Edgar, Kevin also left the Watt Building and joined Anne in the "responsible" search at sea.

But the result was unsatisfactory. The members of the seven-person team searched for a whole day but could not find Madeleine, let alone the group of people who kidnapped Madeleine.

Kevin was not surprised by this result.

The butcher is not good at other things, but he is a first-class expert in this area.

Tracking, counter-tracking, covering up traces... these are Butcher's special skills.

It was because of his ability that he was able to survive as an ordinary person against so many superhuman beings in the black-robed world.

As long as Butcher thinks about it, unless the people of the motherland really use their own clairvoyance ability to scan all the land in the world bit by bit, it is really unlikely that the people of the motherland will find Butcher.

What's more, there is a French guy named French who is also good at this, helping him.

Madeleine probably won't be able to come back in a short time.

Now the problem Kevin needs to face is how to determine whether Madeleine is alive or dead.

The Homelanders couldn't find Butcher, and neither could Kevin.

Butcher cut off contact with everyone.

But Kevin was not in a hurry.

Because he believed that if Butcher really wanted to deal with the people of the motherland, then a simple Madeleine would definitely not be able to satisfy him.

They'll call him.

This time won't be too far away.

…

"No! No! Butcher, calm down, you need to calm down!"

In an abandoned air raid shelter, Marvin and Huey stopped Butcher who took out a gun and wanted to shoot Madeleine in the head.

Stop him from killing Madeleine.

Yes, they kidnapped Madeleine, but that didn't mean they were going to kill this 'witness' who they could use against the Walt Group.

The ideas of Marvin and others are normal and simple.

Madeleine has a lot of dirty information about the Walter Group. As long as there is evidence to prove that the dirty information she said is correct, then in court, she will be able to accuse the sleazy senior executives of the Walter Group one by one. Send them all to jail!

Now that Butcher wanted to kill her, it would be a waste for the entire black robe team.

What a waste!

They couldn't let Butcher kill her!

"Get away!!"

Butcher struggled hard as the two stopped him. At this moment, his eyes were red and his face was filled with anger, like a mad beast, opening its bloody fangs at Madeleine who was tied to the chair.

From Madeline's mouth, Butcher already knew about his wife Rebecca.

I found out that Rebecca had died in childbirth and didn’t even have the child!

Years of obsession, years of searching, and finally this is the result.

Butcher simply couldn't accept it.

"Hey! Butcher, listen to me!"

The strong black man Marvin tried his best to stop Butcher and persuaded:

"Even if you kill her now, nothing will change at all! On the contrary, if you keep her alive, both the people of the motherland and the Walter Group may be overthrown by you! Butcher——!"

"roll!!!"

In anger, Butcher threw away Marvin and Huey. He picked up the pistol, took two steps forward and put the pistol against Madeleine's forehead.

Just as he was about to pull the trigger, Marvin shouted again:

"Butcher! Is it more important to take revenge on someone who only knew about it but didn't tell it, or to take revenge on the culprit who caused all this? You have to think clearly whether you want to get rid of the people of the motherland or get rid of her!"

Perhaps it was Marvin's words that had an effect, and Butcher's finger that was about to pull the trigger finally stopped.

At this moment, the air seemed to freeze and everyone became quiet.
