Chapter 466: The Missing Parahuman (2) The Unlucky Guy’s Clue
"Whoosh!"

The special spider silk blended from the split-body suit pulled Gwen to the Empire State Building. With the help of the suit's telescope mode, this place became a good bird's-eye view point.

As if she was shopping, Gwen began to walk along the edge of the building with her head down, and her eyes began to scan the surrounding area with the Empire State Building as the center point.

The last missing superhuman was a mutant. According to the information shown in the Daily Bugle, the mutant was an Indian man named Neil Sarah. Later, Gwen relied on the split body to find more information about the man on the Internet.

According to the information Gwen found, Neil was an ordinary office worker who was sent on a business trip to the United States by an Indian company. Everything was fine in the first three days of his business trip, and he even won a large order for his company in the United States.

If nothing unexpected happened, Neil would have no problem getting a promotion and a raise just based on these orders, but an accident happened when Neil was at the peak of his life.

On the fifth day of his business trip to the United States, which was also his last day there, a refreshed Neil decided to check in at the famous Empire State Building. While in the hotel, he chatted with the waiter for quite a while, during which he mentioned that he wanted to take a photo at the Empire State Building.

Not only to commemorate this trip to the United States, Neil also plans to use the Empire State Building to represent his impending soaring fortune.

But unfortunately, in this free country, the building may not wish him good luck, but instead bring his fortunes to a crashing halt.

On the way to the Empire State Building, Neil encountered a robbery. It was said that he was robbed by a group of hooligans who hated people and dogs. According to subsequent interviews with passers-by on the street, it was learned that this group of hooligans specifically targeted foreigners.

Because these people generally do not have deep roots in the country, even if they use heavy-handed tactics, no one will stand up for them. In addition, they have the protection of being minors, which makes them even more fearless. However, the most important thing is that these foreigners generally do not have guns.

Neil was very reluctant at first, but since there was no one around to help him and he was surrounded and couldn't call the police, he had no choice but to hand over the money he had on him.

But those hooligans got ahead of themselves and asked to search Neil's backpack to see if there was anything more valuable. Neil naturally didn't want to do that, so both sides got angry and the situation eventually turned physical.

Neil was outnumbered and was pinned to the ground and beaten by the hooligans. Just when the onlookers around him wanted to go up and pull these people apart to prevent anyone from getting killed, an accident happened.

Neil's hands suddenly burst out with an astonishing energy, knocking over the group of hooligans who beat him, and many of the onlookers around were also affected.

That's right, when facing life-threatening situations, Neil awakened his mutant abilities. Afterwards, his abilities were revealed to be similar to thermionic emission. In the end, almost all of the thugs who beat him up suffered fourth-degree burns and looked miserable.

The most serious injuries among the affected onlookers were second-degree burns, while the rest were not too serious.

Now, not only did Neil fail to rise to prominence, he also faced a mountain of lawsuits. According to common sense, Neil's uninformed counterattack under life-threatening circumstances should have been less culpable. Unfortunately, because he's a mutant, this rationale became irrelevant, turning him from victim to criminal. Magneto should have sent someone to pick him up, but something even worse happened.

Neil's incident happened about a week ago, when Yang Le and Gwen were playing together. At that time, the mutants were fighting fiercely with the Supreme Team, and no one noticed this poor guy at first.

Afterwards, Magneto took the mutants away to deal with the affairs of his mutant kingdom. According to Yang Le's contact with his clone, Magneto and other mutants have been busy building a country and have no time to care about what is happening in the outside world.

Magneto gave the human side a big ultimatum, and at least the government agreed on the surface. However, the government will not help him promote the establishment of the mutant kingdom, but it will not stop it either. Whether it can be successfully established depends entirely on Magneto's own ability.

So unlucky Neil had no choice but to accept the original verdict of his compatriots and bear a lot of medical expenses and compensation, not only from those who beat him, but also from those who were affected by the show.

In this way, Neil lost all his savings and was left with only one set of clothes. After becoming a mutant, the original orders naturally fell through, and the company he worked for also severed ties with him. He experienced great ups and downs in his life in a short period of time.

Unfortunate Neil still encountered one good thing, which was the establishment of Magneto's mutant kingdom. As a result, many mutants who were judged to be ideologically safe did not have to go to prison. He only had to wait until the mutant kingdom was established and then he could be directly escorted to the mutant kingdom.

During the waiting period, he was detained in a detention center specifically for mutants, but just the day before yesterday, he disappeared in the mutant detention center. When the guards called the roll early in the morning, they found that Neil was missing.

Some people suspected that he had escaped, but others equated Neil's disappearance with the recent series of disappearances of superhumans, such as the Daily Bugle.

Gwen thought it was a bit far-fetched, but Yang Le gave her an explanation.

In Yang Le's opinion, the possibility of Neil escaping is not high. Firstly, Neil's ability is doomed. If he wants to escape by his own strength, the noise he makes will definitely be quite loud.

And according to the photos leaked by someone in the evening, Neil's room was not destroyed and the detention center was not damaged, which means that Neil did not disappear by his own strength.

Secondly, the possibility of someone in the detention center using their abilities to help Neil escape is even smaller. Not to mention that there is no record of mutants with such abilities in the detention center's list. Even if someone has hidden their abilities, there is no need to risk being discovered to help Neil, a stranger who has only been there for two days. Wouldn't it be better for him to escape on his own if he had that much time?
As for the possibility that this person wanted to test the waters with Neil to see if he could escape successfully, this idea was even more impossible. Because of Neil's disappearance, the security level of the detention center was raised to a higher level. Yang Le felt that no fool would do such a thankless task.

The third is Neil's ability. In the entire detention center, he is the only one who possesses a mutant ability with great destructive power. This is unintentionally similar to the previous disappeared superhumans. Others did not disappear, but Neil disappeared. This is really interesting.
