Marvel: Awakening the Universe.

Chapter 27 Hawke, who was thinking of robbing, was robbed

hum!
Half past two in the afternoon.

The flight from New York landed smoothly at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Washington, D.C.

After half an hour.

Hawke, traveling light, walked out of the airport and came to a taxi. He opened the back door and got in. He told the young black man who turned his head to look at him from the driver's seat that he was staying at a motel in Quantico.

The young black driver nodded, started the mileage, stepped on the accelerator, and drove away from the airport.

Although the Marine Corps base and the FBI academy are both in Quantico, it doesn't mean that ordinary people can't get there.

Ordinary people simply cannot freely enter areas under military control.

However, the town of Quantico itself, which is the outskirts of the base, is still open.

Any self-disciplined person has extraordinary motivation, let alone a man like Hawk who insists on punching 10,000 times a day for a thousand consecutive days.

Hawke's ability to act is also unprecedented.

He had just come out of the Osborne Bioindustry Building in the morning, and at noon he rushed to the airport to buy a ticket for the fastest flight to Washington.

Hawke didn't even go home to get himself a few changes of clothes.

Fortunately, he had spent the entire night looking at the satellite map of Quantico and had a rough idea of ​​what he would need to do if he wanted to go to Quantico to retrieve his Gammanion.

Otherwise, Hawke, who had just got off the plane, would probably be like a headless fly, not knowing which way to go.

"Plan A."

"If you can go in quietly, go in quietly."

"But if we're discovered, we'll just switch to plan B."

"Quick victory!"

Hawke, sitting in the back seat of the taxi, thought silently in his heart again, then regained his composure and turned to look at the scenery outside the window.

then……

Hawke glanced discreetly at the driver in front of him, while taking out his phone from his pocket—a phone he'd forgotten to restart after turning it off on the plane.

The phone turned on quickly.

Ding Dong, ding Dong, the text message sound was received.

Hawke raised his eyebrows and was about to unlock the car to see what spam messages the operator had sent this time when a deep voice rang out in the car, accompanied by a pitch-black gun muzzle pointed at him from the front.

"Don't move, give me the phone."

"..."

Hawke fell silent.

who I am.

I'm there.

What should I do?
No.

I was going to Quantico to rob, but how come I was robbed just after landing and before I even reached Quantico?

Hey!
It's still the Special Administrative Region after all. Is the security there worse than in New York City?

For an instant.

Hawke's impression of Washington, D.C., reached a freezing point.

The driver, looking through the rearview mirror at Hawke, who seemed frozen in the back seat, said in a deep voice, brandishing the black muzzle of his gun: "Don't move, give me your phone."

Hawke came back to his senses.

"Do you want me to stay still, or do you want me to give you my phone?"

"..."

The driver was silent for a moment after hearing this.

next second.

He seemed to be broken.

"Fuck you, stop talking nonsense and put your phone away..."

"Jingle Bell!"

Just as the driver broke down and spoke, Hawke's phone rang.

Gwen's.

Hawke blinked at the only number left in his phone's address book.

He only has one number saved in this phone.

As he said before, there was no need for him to unplug his phone because he didn't need to call anyone and no one would call him.

Uh... except for Gwen.

Hawke looked at Gwen's call, answered it directly, and put it to his ear.

"Hey……"

"..."

The young driver broke down.

He looked through the rearview mirror and saw Hawke, who ignored his "equality device" and answered the phone without any hesitation or even pretending, and his defense was completely broken.

next second.

Xiao Hei suddenly braked, braked suddenly, then swung his body on the seat and leaned back.

"Fuck, I'm..."

"Boom!"

"what!"

"..."

On the other end of the phone, Gwen, who was about to speak, suddenly blinked when she heard a scream that seemed to come from Hawke.

"Is someone screaming, Hawke?"

"…Yeah, there was a guy passing by who was showing a movie just now. Probably some violent action movie."

"I guess so. The scream sounded exactly like the scream of someone's ribs being broken."

"Uh……"

Hawke bent down, one hand covering the mouth of Blackie, who was leaning against the console, while looking at the spot where he had hit Blackie's ribs. "Can you tell where the man was injured from the scream?"

Gwen laughed from the other end of the line.

"Of course, my dad is the sheriff. Let me tell you something, the new police officers may not be as professional as me."

"...I can see it."

Hawke was speechless.

What else can he say? He can only say that a top student is a top student. He learns things faster and better than others.

at this time.

Gwen's laugh was bright and hearty this time.

"I was just teasing you, how is that possible?"

"...Okay, I'm serious."

"By the way, why is your phone turned off? I called you several times but couldn't get through."

"what happened?"

Hawke kept bending over, covering Xiao Hei's mouth with one hand to prevent him from screaming, and holding the phone with the other hand to talk to Gwen.

"Go downstairs."

"what?"

"Dr. Connors knows you were fired and that you're the one taking the blame. He felt bad and prepared a gift for you, but you couldn't get through on the phone, so I came over anyway. Aren't you home?"

Gwen, who had already driven her yellow Corolla to the downstairs of Hawke's new apartment building, pressed an envelope on the passenger seat with her hand while looking through the window at Hawke's new apartment building.

After hearing that Gwen had arrived downstairs of his apartment, Hawke was silent for a second or two, then he reacted.

"Yes, I'm not home. How about you take it back and give it to me when school starts?"

"I've already gotten off."

Gwen closed the car door and walked towards Hawke's new apartment building while saying, "You are on the top floor of the apartment building close to the road, right? Your windows are open. I will go in through the escape stairs and take it straight home for you."

Hawke was stunned.

It's not surprising that Gwen knew where his home was. After all, she was there when he was filling out the application form and might have seen it.

but……

"How did you know?"

"I saw your shorts hanging by the window."

"Uh……"

"You've been wearing those pants for three years, and if I remember correctly, they weren't shorts before. I think you changed them into shorts in tenth grade."

"Okay, that's it. I'll just drop you off at home and I'll be back soon."

"..."
