Forty-eight hours ago, Will stood in the middle of the street dazedly and at a loss, watching Murphy get into a taxi and walk away after parting with his companions.

He turned his head to stop Peter, but when he turned around, he found that the brown-haired young man standing by the roadside had disappeared.

What should I do at this time, should I call the police?Or pretend not to see?

Murphy was the only adult who was willing to come up and have a chat after discovering his anomaly.

Now he may be in danger.

But, Will thought, how am I going to explain that I know the taxi driver is not a good guy when I see the police?How do I convince adults that I actually met each other?

The child named Will should be born in an ordinary family with both parents, living a happy life, free from disease and disaster, maybe there was a little annoyance caused by the subtropical virus, but it doesn't matter, time will overcome everything.

He will eventually get used to the current life, get used to going out to eat with his parents on weekends, passing by the fountain square full of pigeons, and then go to the toy store to pass the time like every child.

— This is a lie.

A lie that Will never wanted to be exposed.

He can't call the police.The risk was too great, and he had managed to leave his old life, and it wasn't worth sacrificing too much for a stranger he ran into in a toy store.

Or what if Will had identified the wrong person?Or did Murphy know the driver?

What if they were in a gang?Even if this is really kidnapping and Will's ability doesn't work on Murphy, maybe Murphy can solve the trouble by himself?

Under the warm sunshine, the boy was spinning all kinds of thoughts and excuses in his head, but he couldn't help but squat down and hug his body tightly, shivering.

He didn't know what to do at this time, no one had taught him in the short journey of life.

Maybe I can keep up with it and see.For a long while, he said to himself in his heart.

It's okay, no one else will see me anyway.Don't be impulsive, don't participate, approach cautiously, run away if there is an accident, and ask a reliable adult to come and solve it.It'll be fine, just like last time.

Just like the last big adventure he'd had when he left Granny's lab.

Murphy ate, drank and slept well for two days. When he woke up on the third day, he felt that he might have gained weight.

This is a private laboratory located in the outskirts of New York.Generally speaking, such famous laboratories in movies are either about to be sacrificed in the explosion, or the base camp of the villain Boss. Their indoor atmosphere is often very dark and depressing, and the BGM is also eerie, as if carved out of the same mold. like that.

In particular, Murphy was locked in a special cell in the basement, with no windows other than a single bed, a toilet, and a sink. Surrounded by pale, old walls with peeling paint, it gave people the impression that they could indeed be dug out with a spoon. The sense of dilapidation is not even comparable to the clown single room in Lego City Arkham Mental Hospital.

But to be honest, Murphy thinks it is better than the internal environment of Arkham in the real universe.

He has never been to the Black Gate or Rafter Prison here, so he can compare them when he has a chance.

The person who kidnapped him did not act for a long time, probably because he wanted to know if there would be someone from the Lego company behind Murphy to rescue him.

But from Murphy's point of view, it is unnecessary to waste two days without getting into the topic.

After all, Lego City can't find anyone with a higher status than him. If the president is kidnapped and his life is dying, the person who kidnapped him might be lucky enough to meet at least two superheroes who started from the regiment.

He estimated that it would take two to three days for people outside to call the police, so he didn't let Bubu notify the police.

On the one hand, it is because he wants to maintain the image of Morpeth Murphy as an ordinary and harmless person, and on the other hand, he also prevents the villain from finding out that something is wrong and running away in time.

Today is the third day. If there is no accident, the news of "The CEO of Lego Company was kidnapped and disappeared by unknown persons for more than 48 hours and his life and death are unknown" will make the headlines of the morning newspapers.

Murphy had never met any superhero in uniform in his true identity before.

Whether it is meeting Bruce Wayne in Gotham or meeting Peter Parker at the Daily Bugle, the other party shows the side of ordinary people.

In other words, Morpeth Murphy generally has no friendship with superheroes. Except for the little spider who may be eager to know his whereabouts, other superheroes probably will not go beyond the police to conduct private investigations.

Then the man behind the kidnapping of him will soon be able to confirm that there is really no big shot behind Murphy.

Murphy changed into a comfortable position and leaned against the wall with his eyes closed, wondering how long it would take for the enemy to be unable to hold back and come to the door.

There is no timer or sunlight in the cell, so he can only rely on his biological clock and mental arithmetic to judge how long the time has passed.

At about noon on the third day, the iron door of the cell was opened from the outside.This kind of iron door looks very strong, but in fact, the master builder can dismantle it into an iron plate with one more abdominal muscle than Batman in an instant.

But Murphy kept in mind his ordinary personality, and did not show any special abilities except for being too calm.

"Hi." The man in a white coat came in and greeted him, "Morpeth Murphy, tsk tsk, welcome, you are the first person our laboratory has received recently big shot."

"Don't dare to be." Murphy was in a good mood today, and his attitude was very peaceful. He straightened up and asked, "So you have received other big shots?"

"That depends on whether you know it or not." The researcher was followed by several men in black clothes who were fully armed, and they were responsible for fixing Murphy to the movable operating table tilted at a 45-degree angle.

The young man in the white coat stood there holding the information book, and while looking at it, he muttered, "We have a long history, and we are too famous to tell you about the non-disclosure agreement. Let me just say that the one who has been around recently is better, Wilson." Have you heard of the last name?"

Murphy didn't resist, just lay down on the table obediently, and said in a familiar way: "Death knell?"

"Do you still know him? Then you know a lot of people. Has Lego also contacted mercenaries?"

Murphy wanted to say something, but the researcher had an expression of "I understand, you don't need to explain", "But I'm not talking about the death knell, but another Wilson, his brother, the one who was an intern in the X-Men."

"Okay." Murphy had to stop him so as not to name names, "I know who you are referring to."

"As expected of the second boss of Lego Company." The researcher said with emotion, "Even the pendants that are put out are smarter than others."

They had already moved outside the cell at this time.Murphy smiled and did not refute him: "So you used to be part of the Weapon X project? Is the Yamojo virus kept here?"

"It seems that you already know the purpose of our experiment." The researcher said frankly, "Luthor is really an out-and-out genius. The virus he developed has a higher success rate in developing superpowers than serum, and the existence of vaccines has reduced Mortality can also control the receptors to a certain extent. From this perspective, you can also suffer less trouble today."

"How did you guys do it before? With the serum?"

"You don't want to know, Mr. Murphy. People who can't survive are dead, and those who survive are not normal.

But in fact, the Yamozhuo virus also has shortcomings, that is, in order to ensure that you will not die after gaining superpowers, we must inject you with antibodies extracted from the superhuman body.

However, after the antibody is injected, you may lose your ability-after all, in the last Amojo virus leak, only a very small number of people became new superhumans in the end. "

Murphy humbly asked for advice: "Then what should we do at a time like this?"

The researcher tilted his head and thought for a while: "I'm not sure yet. You are actually the first client after we changed the dressing. Recently, all of our researches are survivors who have retained their superpowers from the previous incident.

It is very difficult for the human immune system to resist the submerged virus, so Lex Luthor needs to extract antibodies from aliens or gods who are immune to the source of infection. "

"In this way, there are two possibilities. One is that we use the virus on you again, and repeat this process until you retain your ability, or your body collapses and dies."

"Don't worry, our experimental body is also very precious. If we can prevent you from dying, we won't let you die. The second is that we postpone the use of antibodies, prolong the see-saw process between your body cells and the virus, and observe The resulting lesions, to see what exactly affects the retention of superpowers."

After listening to his long introduction, Murphy said thoughtfully, "Neither of them sounds very safe."

The researcher looked at him strangely: "We are breaking the law anyway. Don't you feel scared when I tell you?"

Murphy shook his head: "The last question, why me?"

"Oh. We don't want to. You can't imagine how troublesome it is to catch public figures. If Grandma Cixiang recently invested a lot of money, she doesn't like Lego. These days, if you have a milk, you are a mother, do you understand? ?”

"I understand." Murphy said empathetically, "Everyone has to eat. There is still one thing that confuses me. Doesn't Grandma Cixiang run a toy company?"

"Isn't Lego too?" The researcher was almost moved by his understanding, and looked at Murphy with friendly eyes. "Actually, you are all similar. One is summoning evil spirits, and the other is planning to work for the dark king."

Murphy hesitated to speak, and had nothing to say.

He felt that the matter was basically figured out, although Vandal Savage of the Illuminati said before that the Phantom Zone was also involved in this matter, why hasn't he seen any shadows until now?

Murphy did not come here to play offline 1v1 with Granny Kindly. He needed to know which member of the Phantom Zone was involved and to what extent, and that the key would never be in Darkseid's hands now. let's go? !

It is really difficult to be a president these days. An ordinary incident of losing a prison key has risen to the level of cosmic diplomacy and world peace.

When the kidnapping was carried out, Grandma Cixiang's subordinates conducted a body search, and all electronic equipment on Murphy's body was taken away and destroyed.

When he went out, he just went to have a meal, and his companion was a superhero with eyes and ears, so he didn't bring any high-tech products with him.

Boo Boo couldn't contact him with the headset, but it was already a mature AI and could find its way around the lab's firewall on its own.

When the operating table rounded the corner of the corridor, no one except Murphy noticed that the camera above their heads flickered.

Immediately afterwards, a line of words was projected onto the ceiling directly in front of Murphy's line of sight: "A group of thugs! They even chose to kidnap! What should Mr. Murphy do now? If you can't expose your ability, I can't contact the police QAQ."

Murphy blinked slightly and shook his head, indicating that he was capable of solving it.

As long as you can't die, it's a small problem.

If it didn't work, he would kill him and blame it on the president. Anyway, Murphy didn't hear or see anything.

The letters on the ceiling fell apart and reassembled: "Okay, so how do you deal with the fact that the Avengers are going to send a team to rescue you?"

Murphy: "..."

Wait, what?
