Marvel: I Can Control Metal

"What? Peter and May are moving? Why?"

Leo asked in disbelief.

"Yes, boss, we have been paying attention to the family you specifically told us about. Just the day before yesterday, we got the news that they wanted to move. Mei was already looking for a house at that time."

"It seems that because the tuition fees of urban high schools have increased, and the landlord of the house they lived in before is also preparing to increase the rent by 30%, so Mei seems to be unable to afford it."

Zost looked at Leo and said, he really paid a lot of attention to this matter.

"However, according to the follow-up investigation conducted by our people, the landlord recently divorced his wife and divided half of his property, so he increased the prices of his remaining three properties."

"However, the price of Mei's house has increased the most. During the secret investigation, he had the idea of ​​possessing Mei."

Zost continued to explain.

Leo's eyes were slightly cold, but he didn't show anything. He said, "Then how did you solve it?"

"It's very simple. I first asked the landlord to come over and sit down for a while, and then asked him to restore the rent to the original level. With our cordial greetings, he didn't refuse at all."

"But Mei still decided to move out. She was very alert. She must have sensed the landlord's thoughts and acted very resistant and determined."

"So we specially sorted out a few houses on the streets across from each other, and accurately put relevant information on Mei."

"Don't worry, boss, those houses belong to a real estate company that we separated. There is no way to find out that they are related to us, and the prices are also specially set for Mei."

"In comparison, Mei certainly chose one of our houses very rationally. Not only is the location better, but the size, layout, and price of the house are all absolute advantages."

"We directly signed a three-year rental contract with Mei. You know, rent prices in Queens have been increasing recently. The price we gave Mei is an absolutely preferential and low price."

Zost looked at Leo and said everything, telling all the means he had done without hiding anything.

This is actually normal. In Queens, or in the United States, there are far more people renting houses than buying houses. After all, it is difficult for Americans to spend such a large amount of money to buy a house.

In other words, they are not used to saving money. Except for part of the rent, they will use it to enjoy their own life.

Moreover, it was difficult for Mei, a company employee, to save money while not getting married and at the same time providing for Peter Parker's education and food.

Therefore, Peter Parker has always lived a relatively frugal life. Compared to ordinary children, Peter even feels a little inferior in his heart.

Even Ned's pocket money was very rich compared to Peter's, but because he was a yellow child, he also suffered bullying and isolation.

But the two have always been good friends, and this has never changed. Even now, they go to school together.

Furthermore, both of them have very strong learning talents. Ned has been talented in computer skills since he was a child, and he has been learning and practicing, and his hacking skills are very powerful.

As for Peter, he has some all-round learning. Even after Leo and his family disappeared, this talent became more obvious.

"We have always been paying attention to the situation of Mei and Peter, but we have not let them notice, and we have not intervened in anything. This is the first time we have taken action."

Zost continued, after all, Leo finally came here once, and Leo had specifically explained this matter, so he had to make it clear.

"By the way, Peter and Ned were still bullied by senior students and some gangsters on their way to and from school. According to your instructions, we did not intervene until they had no safety issues."

"After all, in our territory, these gangsters don't dare to be as bad and violent as before, so they robbed Peter and Ned twice."

"Of course, after that, I gave both groups a good beating and threw them into the Bronx."

Leo was silent for a moment after listening to Zost's words, and then said, "You did a good job. You will send Peter and Mei's new addresses to my mobile phone later."

"Boss, why do you pay attention to Peter and the others? Uh, I mean, if you want, we can make Mei and Peter live a good life without being as poor as they are now. Sometimes I feel a little distressed when I see Peter. .”

Zost looked at Leo with some curiosity and asked softly.

"This is different. Some things have the meaning of their existence."

"There are some things that you won't feel unless you experience them. Moreover, a sudden windfall is not a good thing for Peter."

Leo said calmly, looking to the other side, as if he could see Peter's presence through dozens of streets.

Leo and Peter haven't seen each other for a long time. The last time they met with Ned and Peter, they didn't say much.

Perhaps they don't want to affect the peaceful lives of Peter and Ned. They are still young and are not suitable to get involved in the things that Leo has to take care of now.

However, Leo did not give up his protection of Peter and May. Perhaps Peter Parker in another world has grown up after losing Uncle Ben.

But Leo didn't want this Peter to lose May.

But if there really comes a day, maybe Leo will do what he did with Frigga, while ensuring safety. This experience will make people suddenly realize a lot of things.

Leo had this experience in his previous life.

"What's this Kingpin you're talking about?"

Leo suddenly turned his head and looked at Zost and said.

"That man is a powerful guy. He was once the most powerful gang leader in eastern New York. But when you, the boss, took action, he was scared away and left New York directly. He hid somewhere."

"Nearly a year has passed now, and we only recently learned the news that Kingpin is back, and their power has begun to grow rapidly."

"But now we have occupied two areas, which is almost the current limit of our black prison."

Zost said, "If we want to continue to expand, we encounter great resistance, and we don't have enough manpower."

"As for Kingpin, he occupies half of Manhattan and the Bronx, and his men are not much weaker than us."

"Perhaps it's because we are too disciplined. If we want to recruit normal manpower, the efficiency is not very high. Do we need to lower our standards?"

Zost asked looking at Leo.

"No, let's maintain the status quo. I'm already satisfied."

Leo waved his hand and said, after all, what he wanted at the beginning was just to maintain the safety of the three or four blocks where Jenny was located, but now, there are more than three or four hundred.

As for Leo now, he is more mature and more thoughtful than before.
