Marvel's The Force Awakens

Joe's condition is not optimistic.Although the gunshot wound on his left shoulder was not too deep, it should have damaged a major blood vessel.

Due to the lack of time, they only did the most basic bandaging, and now the situation has become a bit tricky.It had been oozing blood for the past few minutes and had stained most of Joe's shirt red.

There are about five liters of blood in a human body.When the body loses more than 15% of blood, various side effects such as dizziness, paleness, and weakness in limbs will appear.When a person's blood loss reaches more than 30%, more serious symptoms will appear and may even be life-threatening.And Joe has undoubtedly entered this dangerous zone.

If this is not dealt with as soon as possible, he may not be able to walk very far before he bleeds to death.

Peter took off Joe's suit, tore it into strips of cloth, and then began to rebandage the gunshot wound on his shoulder.This will somewhat reduce the rate of his blood loss, but it is obviously not enough.Peter was not a professional medical person, and he was sweating profusely at this time, but his helmet concealed all his expressions very well.

"The bullet is still in the wound. I can't deal with this for the time being. You hold on for now. There is a secret passage in this basement leading to the outside world. We only need to go to a place with many people and it will be safe."

"Ah, that old channel, how did you know this information?" Qiao looked suddenly enlightened at first, and then became a little curious.But the weakness in his tone became more and more obvious. "Were you once a member of the Moretti family?"

"It's a pity that I have nothing to do with your family. I interrogated a few people here, and among them was this very interesting information." Peter replied while bandaging, trying to keep his tone calm. , although the impatience in his heart is getting stronger and stronger now.

Although the mysterious attackers could not find their location for a while, it was only a matter of time before they found this place.Now Joe has almost become a liability in terms of mobility.For a moment, Peter even had the idea of ​​leaving him here.

But Qiao helped him express this idea directly.

"Leave me alone and go on your own." Joe sighed and closed his eyes. "To be honest, even if you can rescue me, I'm afraid I won't be able to get any decent reward."

"I'm not here to save you for money." Peter said in a calm tone. He tore off a piece of cloth and wrapped it around the bandage on Joe's shoulder.

"Oh" Joe was a little surprised. "In your heroism, you will save scum like me for free. You know, the number of people who will die indirectly in my hands will probably not be less than the number of people who died tonight. If you want to be your great hero, then Shouldn’t I be your enemy?”

"You are not my friend either. After I take you out, you will be handed over to the police."

"Police" Joe almost laughed. "You might as well kill me with one shot. It would be easier that way. Didn't you see what happened tonight? There was an explosion of this magnitude in the center of New York City, and there is no siren sound yet. I am in their hands It’s a dead end inside.”

"I will send you to the New York Police Department. There are many people there, and it is impossible for the other party to bribe everyone. You apply for witness protection. You are a senior member of the Moretti family, as long as you are willing to put what is in your head If you say it, I believe you can get the highest level of protection." Peter tightened the strip of cloth in his hand, then tied a small bow, and the bandage was ready.

Peter closed his eyes and pressed his hand to Joe's wound.The mental power in his mind began to be consumed rapidly, and the force was converted into the gentlest form and slowly transferred from his palm to Qiao's wound, transforming into Qiao's own life force.

Peter held on for seven or eight seconds before cutting off the link, taking two steps back and taking a few deep breaths.It is not very difficult to use the Force to heal yourself, but it is quite troublesome to use it on others.Not only does the therapeutic effect have to be lost a lot during the transmission process, but maintaining this delicate operation also consumes more mental energy.In just this short period of time, nearly half of Peter's mental energy was consumed, making him feel tired.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the stairs, and both of them felt a sudden shock in their hearts.Peter motioned to Joe, who was still recovering, to stay where he was and stood up.

Fortunately, there were only two people.Peter picked up the stainless steel spoon he had yet to throw away and launched a surprise attack the moment they entered the basement.His ladle struck the first man on the head.

for

In order to achieve a quick victory, Peter also specially used the Force to strengthen his arm for this blow.The effect was quite obvious. The man was knocked unconscious by this blow and fell to the ground.

Only then did the second man react and raised his gun.It seems that they did not expect that their target would actually be hiding in this basement.With a wave of his spoon, Peter knocked away the opponent's pistol, and grabbed the opponent's throat with his left hand.After exerting a little force, the man's breathing was forcibly blocked by the Force. His hands kept beating around, trying to struggle free.But within a few seconds, he lost consciousness due to suffocation.

"Let's go quickly" After dealing with these two people, Peter quickly pulled Joe up.Now some color has returned to his face, and his mobility has recovered a lot.

After a short search, they found the so-called secret passage.Unlike the gorgeous escape tunnel that Peter imagined in the villain's base camp in the movie, after opening the door, what appeared in front of them was only a dirt hole about one and a half meters high.There was no light in the cave, it was completely pitch black.

In this environment, Peter could barely rely on his Force induction, while Joe could only act like he was blind.Peter took out his flashlight and handed it to Joe.

"This used to be a repair tunnel. It led to a subway track that is now abandoned." Joe walked at the front and explained to Peter as he walked. "This thing was discovered when the Covindro House was renovated more than 40 years ago. We spent a little money to open this passage all the way to the basement. You see, we have arrived."

The environment around them suddenly became spacious, and it finally felt like a man-made underground passage.Peter looked back and saw that the passage they had just walked down was nothing more than a large hole punched in the wall.Joe was obviously more familiar with this place than Peter, and after looking around, he determined the direction they should take next.

"When I ran down here to play, I would always get beaten. At that time, we probably didn't expect that we would actually use this place." Qiao said with a wry smile.Not long after, a door appeared in front of them.Peter stepped forward, fumbled a few times and opened the door.

Behind this door, they should be safe.Peter could even hear the distant vibration of the train on the tracks.They both relaxed a little.

Their pursuers discovered the direction of their escape 2 minutes later.

Looking at the big hole without any light, the leader's face turned livid, and he kicked each of the two people who were still lying on the ground and had not yet woken up.

"We dispatched so many men tonight and lost four brothers. Now you tell me that the second most important target in our mission has actually successfully escaped." He said this sentence word by word, Everyone around him lowered their heads, not daring to make eye contact with him.

Seeing that no one around him dared to contradict him at this time, the man seemed a bit dissatisfied and disappointed. He snorted and turned around to leave.

"Two teams will go down and continue to track them, while the others will clean up the situation. I'm going to make a call with the boss."

At the other end of downtown New York, in the presidential suite of a hotel.Wesley, who was wearing a formal suit, hung up the phone and turned to report to his boss.

"We have lost target No. [-]. He has escaped from our first encirclement." Wesley said in a very calm tone, with no intention of covering up the bad news at all. "Now it has been determined that the friend we talked about before who likes to wear a red mask is assisting target number two. This time he seems to have changed his appearance."

"You mean the weasel violated our agreement"

"Probably not." Wesley pushed up his glasses. "This time, this person should have acted alone. He doesn't even know who we are."

"Can I negotiate with him through Weasel? I don't want to create more enemies for me... in vain."

Wesley nodded. "It should be no problem. I will make arrangements now. But please forgive me for asking, what should we do if the other party does not accept our conditions?"

"So after you make this call, you need to make another one," his boss replied. "Inform the people in the second encirclement. After taking so much money from me, they have to do something worthy of the salary."

Wesley nodded.
