The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

Yes.

There is one more place.

even……

If nothing in that place works, Lake has another plan, but that plan may expose his identity to a crisis.

Hope it doesn't work.

Lake thought so, and after saying this to Sloan, he said to Joe, "Where are the security guards in the security room?"

"The Secret Service is watching."

"Um."

Lake nodded: "Let Jack call those security guards over and go somewhere together."

When Joe saw that the time was coming, Lake, who was not panicking at all, felt less nervous. After he said ok, he beckoned to a police officer next to him and asked him to inform the Secret Service Captain Jack to take the security guards with him. come over.

soon.

Lake led everyone into a large room.

The room was very empty.

There was only one large mechanical weaving machine in operation.

The Loom of Fate.

Lake moved towards Joe next to him, who blinked, and Lake leaned into Joe's ear and whispered, "Tell your subordinates to prepare for a gunfight in your heart."

Joe's eyes widened slightly to look at Lake.

Lake nodded slightly.

Joe hesitated for a while and nodded, then turned around and walked out with Firefox and the others.

next second.

Lake pointed to the textile machine in front of him and ordered several police officers in the room: "Tear it down!"

Several police officers have not nodded.

Sloan couldn't sit still: "Wait!"

Lake turned to look at Sloan: "What's the matter, Mr. Sloan, are you nervous?"

Sloan said with a blank face: "Inspector Edwin, this textile machine has been handed down from the Middle Ages and is the most important asset of our textile mill."

Lake shrugged, "So what?"

Sloan said solemnly: "If it is damaged, Inspector Edwin may not be able to pay."

Lake waved to the two police officers who were about to walk away, and then, before Sloan was relieved, smiled: "You're right, but I want to bet, after all, if you can't find any Evidence, just go back like this, it is estimated that Mr. Sloan's energy can also make me miserable, so it makes no difference to me."

Sloan said: "Our factory has always supported the operation of the NYPD. Inspector Edwin was also deceived. I understand Inspector Edwin."

The implication is obvious.

So far.

If Lake left, Sloan said, he could just let it go.

The reason Sloan was so nervous was actually quite simple.

The Destiny Loom is not only an important asset of the textile mill, but also not only an important asset of Sloan. Most importantly, the Destiny Loom is the foundation of the entire mutual aid society.

Mutual aid would not exist without the Loom of Fate.

Sloan founded the Mutual Aid Association and gathered a group of like-minded killers on the grounds that the names appearing on the loom of fate are all God's guidance, and told them in years of brainwashing that they act righteously and that they are the representatives of God in the world By.

but……

But in fact, it's not.

As the top killer of the mutual aid association, Carlos has always believed in this statement. He killed one person in order to save most of the people, until one day Carlos discovered the truth of the fate loom.

The Loom of Fate is not so much the guidance of God as it is the guidance of Sloan.

Carlos exploded.

But Sloan didn't want other killers to know the truth, but explained Carlos' betrayal on the grounds that Carlos' name appeared on the loom of fate, so that other killers could assassinate Carlos.

Now that Lake is about to take on the Loom of Fate, Sloan has only one possible choice left.

That is hands-on.

the reason is simple.

If the fate loom is dismantled, the meaning of mutual aid will be lost, and in the story written by Sloan for the fate loom, this loom is the only one in the world. If it is destroyed, it will be gone. Now, once the loom is gone, Sloan will have no way of pretending to be God's sinner who wrote himself.

Lake also wrote Sloan's fate.

There is only this way in front of Sloan. Sloan must keep the loom of destiny. For Sloan, the loom of destiny is his land, the land on which he lives.

People are lost, people are lost.

Where there is a loss of people, all people and places remain.

but……

An African-American probably doesn't understand this, but Sloan should understand the importance of the fate loom in front of him.

Lake reached out to stop the two officers.

Not because Lake had changed his mind, but because Lake was waiting for Joe's ready voice in the headset.

But when Sloan saw this, he thought that Lake was going to give up, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lake's gaze skipped Sloan, and then fell on Firefox, one of the only two beautiful killers who came with the butcher and the pharmacist behind him.

With a pair of ecstatic eyes, Firefox stared at Lake with eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

at this time.

Joe's voice came through Lake's headset.

Joe, who was outside, looked at the black car that suddenly appeared and said, "Lake, I ordered to go down, and... the mayor is here!"

Lake snorted, then looked at Sloan, tilted his head and said, "Director Sloan, I think your proposal should be forgotten. I decided to take a gamble."

talking.

Lake's right hand was raised high.

Sloan's eyes widened: "Inspector Edwin, you dare."

As Lake guessed, Sloan was determined to protect the fate loom, which was his main machine for making money. Except for the wages of those people, the rest of the money earned by the textile factory outside All are thrown out as political donations.

Lake laughed: "Mr. Sloan, are you threatening me, or is there really something shady hidden in it?"

Sloan's face was uncertain.

at this time.

A middle-aged man in a suit and glasses walked in from outside.

The current mayor of New York, or the mayor who is still a month away from stepping down, the WTO last month was certainly done by terrorists, but the people don’t care about this, who made you the current mayor, so this city Long's approval ratings have fallen to the point where no bookmakers are bullish on re-election, and it hasn't even opened.

"Mr. Mayor!"

Sloan looked at the mayor who walked in, and seemed to see the savior, walked over, and shook hands with the mayor.

The mayor looked at Lake: "Inspector Edwin."

Lake said, "Mr. Mayor!"

The mayor stood with Sloan expressionlessly and looked at Lake: "Did this search find evidence that the textile factory is related to any killer organization?"

Lake nodded and pointed to the fate loom: "The evidence is there."

Sloan looked at the mayor and once again introduced the history of this fate loom, and then spoke to the mayor about Lake's barbaric actions during this search.

The mayor looked a little ugly: "Inspector Edwin, I think you can end the investigation."

Lake laughed, waved directly to the two police officers, and then looked at the mayor: "Mr. Mayor, I have evidence to prove that if there is no inside this textile machine, I am willing to accept any investigation and punishment."

Done.

Lake looked directly at the two police officers: "Tear it down for me!"

The two police officers responded instantly.

Sloan's eyes narrowed.
