The Juggernaut in the comic world

Chapter 233 Meeting with old friends
new York.

As an international metropolis, neon everywhere is definitely its standard configuration.

Although the time is now close to eight or nine o'clock, the sky is already pitch black, but it is like the street in daytime, and the scene of people coming and going on it, as well as the occasional drunken cursing, seem to be telling the world.

night……

It doesn't exist here.

At this time, just outside New York City, Mark, who had run all the way from Missouri, stopped and looked at the bustling city in front of him.

"call!"

After taking a deep breath, Mark adjusted the severe panting caused by running for a long time, then took out his mobile phone and called Strange.

"Hey?"

"Strange, I'm in New York!"

After hanging up the phone, Mark stood there and waited for about ten minutes before a red-faced hatchback appeared at the end of the road.

The dazzling headlights drove towards Mark, and then stopped in front of him.

The car window was rolled down, and Strange appeared in front of his eyes with his face full of drunkenness.

Seeing that it was Mark, Strange opened the car door, and with a look of joy on his face, he staggered down, hugged him, and shouted excitedly: "Mark! It's been seven years! You finally Appeared!"

"you're drunk?"

Mark frowned, and gently pushed Strange away.

He learned about Hill's disappearance from the phone, and then rushed straight to New York, with the purpose of asking Strange about the specific circumstances of Hill's disappearance.

Unexpectedly, when they first met, Strange turned out to be in a state of drunkenness.

Strange said embarrassingly: "I only drank a little, I'm not drunk."

At this time, a woman got off the driver's seat. After hearing the conversation between Mark and Strange, she helped to explain: "When you called, Strange and I were having dinner at the restaurant."

Hearing what the woman said, Mark glanced at the two of them, not knowing what was going on.

"..."

For a while, he also became a little embarrassed.

After a pause, Mark could only apologize: "Sorry."

The woman smiled, and then asked: "You should be the good brother Strange kept talking about growing up with him, right?"

"My name is Mark."

Mark glanced at Strange, nodded, and stretched out his hand, "As you said, Strange's brother."

"Kristen Palmer."

Christine Palmer reached out to hold it, then glanced at Strange, and added, "Strange's colleague."

After getting acquainted, Mark turned to Strange and asked, "I couldn't make it clear on the phone at first. You told me that Hill was missing. What's going on?"

When mentioning Hill's matter, Strange immediately became serious.

"It's not missing, it's because I moved."

"move place?"

Mark was momentarily at a loss.

Afterwards, Strange shook his head vigorously to get rid of his drunkenness, and then recalled, "That happened almost seven years ago. After you disappeared, Hill and I would often visit your home. look."

"But one day..."

"I remember that it should be before the weekend holiday, when Hill suddenly told me that she was going to find you."

As he said that, Strange glanced at Mark: "I was taken aback for a moment, and I persuaded Hill at that time, saying that you left nothing behind before you disappeared, and asked Hill where to find it."

"Hill didn't answer, just kept silent."

"But on Monday, I found out that Hill didn't go to school."

"At first I didn't pay attention, thinking she was sick and unwell, but after asking Ms. Keith Bell, I found out that Hill didn't ask her for leave."

"So, after school in the afternoon, I went to Hill's house."

"But when I got there, I found that the houses there were empty, and the Hill family was gone."

"I asked the neighbors, and the neighbors said they moved on the weekend night."

Hearing this, Mark fell into deep thought.

move place……

Could it be that the group of lunatics that Hill had said killed her parents found them again?

Mark remembered the things Hill had told him.

"correct!"

At this time, Strange seemed to remember something, and pointed his finger up: "Hill's neighbor also gave me a letter, saying that Hill asked her to move out, and said that if anyone came to her, Give that letter to a man named Mark."

Mark came back to his senses in an instant: "What about the letter?"

"It's with me."

After Strange replied, he explained: "I thought you were missing too, so I simply asked for the letter. If you show up, you will definitely look for me, just like now."

"You did the right thing."

Mark nodded, and then asked again: "Then... what was written in that letter?"

Strange shook his head: "I don't know."

Mark was taken aback: "You don't know?"

"Ah."

Strange replied: "Because the letter was marked with the words "Mr. Mark", so I did not open it privately."

Mark said, "Can you give me that letter?"

"of course."

Strange nodded and said, "Because it was the letter Hill left for you when he moved, so I have always kept it carefully."

After speaking, Strange invited Mark to get in the car: "The letter is in the house where I live now, you get in the car first, and I will take you to get the letter."

Afterwards, Strange turned his head to look at Christine Palmer next to him, and said, "Christin, I might ask you to take us back to where I live."

"no problem."

Although she was not very happy in her heart, Christine Palmer did not show it after all, and enthusiastically agreed to Strange's request.

Upon seeing this, Mark expressed his apology to him again.

The red car turned around and went straight. After driving for about half an hour, it finally stopped at the intersection of a pedestrian street.

Mark opened the car door and got out of the car immediately, followed by Strange.

However, just as Strange got out of the car, Christine Palmer called him.

"Strange!"

"Ok?"

Strange's movements froze, he turned around, and asked doubtfully, "Christine?"

"Your friend..."

As he spoke, Christine Palmer glanced at Mark outside through the car window, and whispered, "Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"what?"

Strange was taken aback.

"Uh……"

Christine Palmer opened her mouth, not knowing what to say next.

After a pause, she sighed, and said tactfully: "It's nothing, I just want to tell you that my cell phone will always be on tonight. If you have anything, remember to contact me as soon as possible."
