Chapter 36 Are you interested in the work of Transparent Man?
Huey didn't quite want to admit what Butcher had said.
But after Butcher's analysis, Huey was vaguely persuaded by him.
He has seen clearly that superheroes do one thing in front of others and do another behind the scenes. Who knows if the same is true in the deep sea?
On the surface, she seemed to be comforting him, but in fact, she was trying to trap the locomotive through him.
This would better explain why he turned a blind eye to Frankie's behavior.
But Huey, who had now become a fan of the deep sea, didn't want to think so. He just said dryly:
"I still feel that Deep Sea... Deep Sea is different..."
"If you really feel different, how about meeting him more often? Have you left your contact information?"
Only at the end did Butcher tell his true thoughts.
He wanted Huey to get in touch with the deep sea as a way to get deeper contact with the other members of the Seven.
But alas, Huey failed him.
"…No."
Not to mention contact information, I don’t even know if we can meet next time.
"Waste boy."
Butcher rolled his eyes, said something to Huey mercilessly, then turned away and stopped talking.
Without contact information, anything you say is useless.
…
In the meeting room of the seven-member team, the natives, Kevin, and Madeline gathered together.
The motherland man stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, posing with his hands behind his back, while Kevin played with a small black chip in his hand, rubbing it with his hands from time to time.
Madeline, who had just arrived, saw the chip on his hand at a glance and asked:
"This is the positioning chip in the transparent human body. Where was it found?"
"In the belly of a fish."
Kevin answered casually and handed the chip to Madeleine: "I found it in the belly of a fish."
"So Transparent Man has completely disappeared? He wants to break away from the Vought Group?"
Madeleine asked.
But this time the subjects of the inquiry were people from the motherland.
The motherland man finally turned around, with a smile of unknown meaning on his face. He waved his fingers in front of him to indicate that this was not the case, and explained:
"I think something might have happened to him."
"Why? Just because he took out the locator?"
"Then under what circumstances do you think a transparent person would abandon his shares in the Watt Group, abandon his interests as a seven-man team, and even abandon his child who is less than ten years old, take away the locator and be alone? escape?"
The Motherland asked Madeleine questions.
Madeleine kept silent.
Madeleine also knew what the people of the motherland said, but she was unwilling to believe in another possibility besides this possibility.
Because this means that the transparent person is likely to have...
"He's probably dead."
The people of the motherland spoke their minds for Madeleine: "Someone was targeting the transparent man, and I don't know what kind of method they used to kill him."
"Transparent human skin..."
Madeleine still wanted to defend herself.
The people of the motherland said bluntly:
"The transparent man's skin is indeed indestructible, but since they can even take out the locator, it doesn't seem to be difficult to kill him?"
The people of the motherland still firmly believe that someone must have killed the transparent man. He has always believed this.
Madeline had been persuaded by her motherland, but she still turned her eyes to Kevin sitting aside:
"Deep sea, what do you think?"
This question caused the eyes of the motherland to fall on Kevin. His smile faded slightly, and he and Madeline waited for Kevin's answer.
Kevin, who originally planned to be a little transparent, did not expect that the topic would be brought up on him, but Kevin was not afraid of the stage and said bluntly:
"You have to ask me for my opinion...my opinion is similar to that of the people of the motherland."
"So you also think something happened to the transparent man?"
"Probably, otherwise there is no way to explain why his locator was eaten by a fish."
Kevin said ambiguously, and looked at the motherland from the corner of his eye.
The smile appeared on the face of the motherland again, and it could be seen that he was very satisfied with Kevin's answer.
He no longer paid attention to Kevin, but walked to Madeline, looked down at her and said:
"No matter who did it, we must first find the body of the Transparent Man, and... find them."
Madeline took a deep breath and looked up at the motherland and Kevin:
"How about you investigate this matter?"
The natives smiled and said nothing.
Kevin sighed and said:
"BOSS, my movie will start shooting soon..."
"During filming, do a little bit of what a superhero should do. That's the decision for now. We'll talk about the rest after we find the murderer you mentioned, or the body of the transparent man."
Madeleine quickly determined the tasks for the two of them, then turned and left.
As the vice president of Walter Group, Madeleine has a lot to do, and the Transparent Man matter is not worthy of her too much attention.
After Madeleine left, only Kevin and the Motherland were left in the meeting room of the Seven.
The motherland man sat in his captain's seat, staring at Madeleine's back and lost in deep thought.
Kevin swayed slightly in his chair and felt that nothing happened, so he planned to get up and leave:
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first, captain."
"etc."
The motherland people suddenly stopped Kevin.
Kevin felt something in his heart. He calmed his heartbeat and breathing, and turned to look at the people of the motherland:
"Any thing else?"
Burying the Transparent Man's corpse box and finding the locator and throwing it into the sea were two things Kevin could be sure no one other than himself would know about.
So he didn't think the natives would find anything in the matter.
But the other thing isn't necessarily the case.
Although Locomotive is similar to Deep Sea, they are both bullying and afraid of the strong. After being taught a lesson by Kevin, he may not tell the people about Kimiko to his motherland.
But 'not necessarily' is not 'absolutely', and there is a possibility that he could turn around and tell the people of his motherland about this.
Kevin was actually mentally prepared for this and had taken corresponding countermeasures, but he thought that the people of the motherland would find out about it later...
Kevin was prepared to deal with the attacks from his motherland.
But what Kevin didn't expect was that after the native people stopped him, they actually laughed and asked:
"The recent increase in followers is good?"
"Well enough."
"The filming of the movie is about to start, and my career is rejuvenated, Shenhai."
"Because there is a new script recently. Captain, do you have any questions?"
Kevin was not sure what the people from the motherland were going to say, so he took the initiative to ask.
The motherland man put his feet on the table, looked at Kevin, and asked:
"Are you interested in Transparent Man's work?"
"Um...Captain, if you mean gathering intelligence or something..."
"No, no, no, it's not these, it's the business matters that were originally responsible for Transparent. I originally planned to hand over these tasks to Xuanzi, but now it seems that you are more suitable."
The Transparent Man is responsible for the commercial promotion and creation of derivative works of the Seven Team within the Seven Team.
Although it is not the main responsibility, when it comes to the Seven-Man Team, the Watt Group will usually find transparent people to handle it.
Now that the transparent person is away, these matters will be put on hold for the time being.
Originally, the people of the motherland were thinking of leaving these matters to Black, or simply letting the Walter Group take care of them. But now that they see the activity in the deep sea, the people of the motherland have new ideas.
In the eyes of the people of the motherland, Shenhai is still very obedient and has become more motivated recently. He is much better than before when he only knew how to play with the fish.
If Shen Hai is interested in this aspect, he can hand over the work that originally belonged to the transparent person to Shen Hai.
In order to stabilize the interests of the seven-man team.
