American comic book: I, with my abundant martial virtue, love to do good to others.

After just one week of public outcry, the scandal surrounding New York City Mayor Jack Price has escalated.

Countless people online have been criticizing him, and even ordinary citizens have "spontaneously" taken to the streets to express their distrust of the government.

In this situation, he has no other option but to resign.

What's most frustrating is that, in order to have a chance to rise again in the future, he has to put on a show in front of the media as someone who knows his mistakes, corrects them, and returns to his family to play the role of a good husband.

At the city hall, during a press conference.

Facing countless cameras from the media, Jack Price said, "Despite the serious mistake I made, I am filled with gratitude that my wife chose to forgive me."

"During my time as mayor of New York City, I neglected my family and my wife's feelings for a long period of time."

This made me a bad husband.

"Now, it's time for a change. I've decided to step down as mayor of New York City and return to my family."

The training room at the Illuminati base.

Look at Jack Price in front of the cameras, announcing his resignation as mayor in front of a crowd of media, and embracing and kissing his wife.

Tony Stark said to Steve beside him, "Your chance has come. If you run for mayor of New York City, I will definitely vote for you!"

Steve shook his head at Tony's teasing, then turned his gaze to Thor and Lynn.

"The battle is almost over!"

Upon hearing Steve's words, Tony immediately turned his gaze away from the television and back to Thor and Lynn, who were engaged in battle.

"Puff..."

Thor, who had been thrown through the air, landed on the mat. Lynn looked at Thor and laughed, "You lost."

"Wow, well done!"

Seeing Lynn win the fight, Tony Stark immediately held out his hand to Dr. Banner, who was standing nearby: "I won, Banner, a bet's a bet!"

Seeing Tony's outstretched hand, Dr. Banner took out his wallet, took out twenty dollars, and handed it to Tony.

"Something's wrong with your power!"

Pulling Lynn's arm to his feet, Thor made an excuse, saying, "I can't believe how strong you are. Besides, I didn't even use Mjolnir."

"If I had smashed you with a hammer in that fight, and you were lying on the ground unable to get up, I would definitely be the victor!"

Hearing Saul say that, Lynn walked to the side, picked up a beer, and threw it to Saul.

"You have no chance of taking me down, not to mention you didn't use a hammer, and I didn't use any other abilities."

"Besides, Thor, you are the god of thunder, not the god of hammers!"

Thor took the beer Lynn tossed him, opened it, and drank most of the bottle in one go.

[Sol Odinson's favorability increased to 7, 1000 experience points gained!]

Seeing the favorability indicator for Thor, Lynn seemed to have figured out how to increase Thor's favorability. "Everyone, I declare the Illuminati the victor in the first contest of strength between the Illuminati and the Avengers!"

Watching Tony loudly announce that the Illuminati had won, both Dr. Banner and Steve shook their heads helplessly.

Yes, the so-called "sparring" between the Illuminati and the Avengers was entirely due to Tony's boredom, leading him to ask, "How can you be so strong?"

Sitting next to Lynn, Saul, holding a beer, asked curiously.

"It's alright. As far as I know, there are many very strong guys on Earth."

"Like the Hulk, like the Juggernaut."

After mentioning Hulk, Lynn turned to Bruce Banner: "Bruce, I've already spoken with General Ross of the military. You can live in New York as a special advisor to the Illuminati."

"At the same time, I have spoken with members of Columbia University's board of trustees, and they would be happy to offer you a professorship."

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Bruce Banner sincerely thanked him.

"You're welcome, after all, we're friends."

Bruce Banner's favorability: 7, 750 experience points gained.

Seeing the favorability experience gained from Dr. Banner, Lynn nodded calmly.

Even among the original Avengers members, the level of favorability they have varies.

Just like Tony, Steve, and Thor, the three giants of the Avengers, when their favorability rating is 7, they all have 1000 experience points.

When Black Widow has 7 points of favorability, she only has 500 experience points, but when she gets to Dr. Banner, she gets 750 experience points with 7 points of favorability.

As for Hawkeye... well, his favorability rating hasn't even reached 7 yet!

Today's harvest was quite fruitful; at least I've raised Dr. Banner and Thor's favorability to 7.

point.

"Alright, it's already noon. Let's go have lunch. Let's invite the rest of the Illuminati; it's on me!"

Upon hearing Lynn's words, everyone got up and left the training room.

"Snapped!"

Jack Price slapped his wife Mira across the face and glared at her angrily, saying, "Do I need your comfort? FUXX, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have lost my position as mayor of New York City!"

He ripped off his tie and threw it on the ground, then stormed off toward the bathroom.

Mila covered her face as she got up from the floor, watching her husband walk into the bathroom, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.

Mila took out her phone and took a picture of the finger marks on her face. Remembering her best friend's advice, she walked to the side, removed the hidden camera, and dialed 911.

As soon as the call connected, Mira cried out, "Help! My husband is abusing me! He's going to beat me to death! Waaah..."

When Lynn returned to the FBI, Barbara excitedly approached him: "Boss!"

Mira has filed a police report, claiming she was a victim of domestic violence by Jack Price.

"And there is sufficient evidence; the police have taken Jack Price back for questioning."

"Mira is now preparing to sue our Mayor Jack!"

Hearing Barbara say this, Lynn sat back down in his chair and said, "It seems that Jack Price's wish to lie low and wait for the right opportunity to restart is destined to fail."

"Tell the media about this and let public opinion stir up some discussion!"

"I want the political forces behind him to completely abandon him!"

"OK."

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Barbara nodded and left.

After seeing Barbara leave, Lynn took out his phone and called Chris Bell, the deputy mayor of New York Hydra.

Once the call connected, Lynn said, "Things are all sorted out now. It's up to you to do the job."

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Chris Bell on the other end of the phone immediately replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Hall, the mayor's position will definitely be ours!"

"If you're confident, that's good. Also, let's notify the 'others' to get together tonight!"

After saying that, Lynn hung up the phone.

Early May, in Lynn's large flat.

"Let me sleep a little longer."

Opening her sleepy eyes, Gwen looked at Lynn and tossed and turned in bed, unwilling to get up.

"It's already 7:30. Didn't you say last night that you had Professor Ellie's class this morning, so you should go early to get a good seat?"

Hearing Lynn say this, Gwen gradually came to her senses, kissed Lynn on the cheek, and then threw off the covers and ran toward the bathroom.

Watching Gwen go to wash up, Lynn opened the system.

After shutting down the system, Lynn heard Gwen taking a shower in the bathroom and threw off the covers before entering.

I arrived at the office feeling refreshed, and had only been sitting down for a few minutes when I arrived.

Then Director Duke called.

"Lynn, New York Senator Corent Cooper's daughter, Lily, was kidnapped last night. The senator doesn't trust the NYPD's efficiency in solving cases, so he wants the FBI to take over, preferably you personally."

Hearing Duke's words, Lynn laughed and said, "Director, for you to notify me, this senator must have a lot of influence!"

"He and Jeff Russell were in the same military unit and were very close."

"Understood, Chief. I'll have men find Lily Cooper!"

After hanging up the phone, Lynn asked Alice to come to his office.

The disappearance of a senator's daughter is not something Lynn needs to personally handle.

But things change when Attorney General Jeff Russell is involved.

After all, the FBI has always been under the jurisdiction of the Department of Justice.

"Boss, you called me?"

Upon seeing Alice arrive, Lynn said, "Come with me on a mission. A senator's daughter has been kidnapped!"

"yes!"

Upon hearing Lynn's order, Alice immediately nodded.

Half an hour later, in a poor neighborhood in New York.

"This is the crime scene, Mr. Hall. According to the shop owner, Ms. Lily Cooper was forcibly abducted here last night and forced into an SUV by someone."

With that, the sheriff handed Lynn the cell phone that Lily Cooper had left at the scene.

After taking Lily's phone from the sheriff, Lynn asked Joey to crack the phone's communication data.

Then, looking at the shop owner, he said, "Tell me what happened last night."

In response to Lynn's question, the shop owner immediately replied, "Last night around 10 p.m., a girl named Lily bought a drink from my shop."

"She had just stepped out of the store when a man wearing a hood appeared in a silver-gray SUV and forcibly shoved her into the car."

"There was no one else around when it happened, but I called the police. When the police arrived, they just glanced at the scene and then left with the girl's dropped phone."

Upon hearing the shop owner's words, Lynn turned his gaze to the sheriff.

"Mr. Hall, when the police arrived at the scene after receiving the report, they found no clues other than Lily's dropped phone."

Moreover, this is a slum area, there aren't even any security cameras around, and the shop owner only remembers it was a silver-gray SUV, but he doesn't know the model or license plate number, and we haven't found any other clues!

Faced with the sheriff's explanation, Lynn turned to Joey: "Was the phone hacked? Is there anything unusual about it?"

"No, boss. There are no strange text messages or call logs on Lily Cooper's phone besides normal social media apps."

Hearing Joey's words, Lynn frowned and said, "Lily Cooper is 19 years old and currently studying at Columbia University. She has an apartment near the school, so why would she be in the slums so late at night?"

"Joey, there are no security cameras here. Expand the search area from this street as the center point, find a place covered by surveillance cameras, and look for traces of that silver SUV."

"At the same time, retrieve the information of those who have been released from prison or are on parole and live in the slums, and check if there are any guys who have been imprisoned for kidnapping."

"Alice, let's go check out Senator Corent Cooper's house!"

Upon hearing Lynn's order, everyone immediately nodded.

Half an hour later, at Corent Cooper's home.

"I only have one daughter, so I have always doted on her and never interfered with her private life."

Even when she wanted to move out of her family home after starting university, I didn't stop her, even though I was reluctant to let her go.

I even helped her rent an apartment near the university.

Does Lily have a boyfriend, or someone pursuing her?

"I'm pretty sure she doesn't have a boyfriend right now."

In response to Lynn's question, Corent Cooper replied, "She lost her mother when she was young, and because of my doting love, she is very well-behaved and willing to tell me anything."

"If she were dating a boyfriend, she would definitely tell me right away!"

Looking at Lynn Hall, Corent Cooper, though filled with anxiety, still managed to suppress his impatience and answer Lynn's question.

After asking the usual questions, Lynn glanced at Alice.

After Alice and her entourage left, Lynn then asked Corent Cooper, "Mr. Cooper, do you have any political enemies, or have you received any threats recently?"

"I hope you can answer my questions honestly."

"You have to understand that Lily Cooper has been kidnapped for over 10 hours since last night. According to the FBI's past kidnapping statistics, if we can't rescue Lily within 72 hours..."

"Then the chances of the kidnapped person surviving would be extremely low!"

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Corent Cooper pondered for a few seconds before shaking his head and saying, "I have never received any threats."

"Although I have some political enemies, it's all in the name of official business. I've never made enemies with anyone in private, so there's no question of revenge."

At this point, Corent Cooper seemed to remember something and immediately said to Lynn, "But Lily told me the other day that a man has been following her."

"I wanted to call the police, but Lily wouldn't let me, so I had someone investigate the stalker."

"We discovered that the stalker was just a detective, so I simply had someone teach him a lesson."

After hearing what Corent Cooper said, Lynn asked for the identity information of the follower and then got up and left.

"I'm entrusting this to you, Mr. Hall. If you can rescue my daughter, I promise I won't hesitate to do anything that needs my help!"

Shaking Lynn's hand, Corent Cooper solemnly made his promise.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best."

Lynn nodded to Corente and then turned to leave.

Back in the car, Lynn immediately led his men to arrest the stalker.

"I swear, I really wasn't the one who kidnapped Lily Cooper!"

Faced with Lynn's interrogation, Contes swore, "I was only commissioned by Democratic politicians..."

Secretly investigate evidence of Corent Cooper's illegal activities.

"In fact, I'm not the only one who accepted the mission; our detective agency has always taken on jobs for the Donkey Party to investigate Elephant Party politicians."

"Furthermore, the Elephant Party has also hired another group of private investigators to investigate Donald Party politicians; this is something many people know!"

Seeing that Contes confessed immediately, Lynn asked, "During the time you were tracking and investigating the Coopers, what were your thoughts?"

Have you discovered anything unusual, such as their enemies or people trying to kidnap them?

"Absolutely not!"

Upon hearing Lynn's interrogation, Contes shook his head and said, "Our detective agency has investigated many Elephant Party politicians and has seen all sorts of ugly things done by them."

"But Corent Cooper was always very honest. He was like an outlier in politics. He never used his position for personal gain, and he didn't even have a mistress."

At this point, Contes shrugged: "Although he found out I was following him and his daughter, and then sent someone to teach me a lesson."

"But he's the first politician I've ever truly admired!"

Lynn could tell that the private investigator in front of her was not lying.

However, this once again brought the case to a standstill.

Back at the FBI, Lynn looked at the surveillance footage Joey had found, which was located a few blocks away from the slums.

"Any leads on that SUV?"

"No, boss. I've retrieved all the surveillance footage from the area closest to the slums, but there was no trace of the silver-gray SUV driving by at 10 p.m. last night."

Upon hearing Joey's answer, Lynn said, "So, that silver-gray SUV is very likely still somewhere in the slums?"

"In that case, we'll have to resort to the brute force method!"

Then, Lynn looked at Alice and said, "Alice, go to Columbia University and consult with Lily's classmates. At the same time, have the investigation team go to the slums and search every inch of the area."

"yes!"

Upon hearing Lynn's order, Alice immediately led her people away.

"Is it possible that the person who kidnapped Lily Cooper was a mutant?"

Barbara handed Lynn a cup of coffee and speculated, "After all, if he were a mutant with the same abilities as me, he could teleport Lily and the SUV away from the slums."

In response to Barbara's speculation, Lynn took the coffee and said, "I can't be sure. Let's see what the investigation team finds in their search of the slums!"

The case reached a stalemate, and Lynn was at a loss for what to do.

The surveillance footage captured nothing, and there was no record on the satellite.

It's fair to say that the kidnappers and Lily were like a drop of water falling into the ocean; there was simply no way to find out when it got to noon.

While Lynn was having lunch, Alice returned from Columbia University.

"Boss, I learned from Lily that she has been volunteering at a community corrections center called 'Life Harbor' for the past six months."

7

"She goes here every Monday, Friday, and Saturday from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Hearing Alice's words, Lynn frowned and said, "A community corrections center? I remember that's supposed to be a place for criminals released on parole from prison."

"Yes, boss. According to our investigation, this community corrections center mainly receives drug addicts and robbers, and a large majority of them are minors."

"Lily was volunteering there, and this community corrections center is only three blocks away from where Lily was kidnapped!"

Upon hearing Alice's explanation, Lynn put down his cutlery and said, "Let's go check out this community corrections center!"

Half an hour later, a haven in life.

"You've finally arrived. Is it about Kate...Mr. Lynn Hall? Good heavens, has the FBI taken over Kate's disappearance case?"

Upon recognizing Lynn Hall as the visitor, the head of Life Harbor immediately asked curiously.

"Kate?"

"You two aren't here because of Kate's disappearance? I thought the NYPD couldn't find her and then reported it to the FBI!"

Hearing the person in charge say that, Lynn asked, "Lily Cooper has been volunteering here, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Hall, Lily is very kind and very responsible."

When Lily Cooper was mentioned, the person in charge lavished praise on her.

"Lily Cooper went missing last night. Do you have any leads?"

As he spoke, Lynn glanced around and said, "According to the law, as a community corrections center, you should have surveillance cameras here, right?"

"It's been broken for almost a month."

When Lynn asked the question, the person in charge shrugged and said, "I reported to my superiors that the surveillance cameras were damaged due to old wiring, but no one has been sent to repair them."

"As you know, we are not a profit-making organization, and this is a slum, so the higher-ups don't pay much attention to this place."

After hearing the person in charge's explanation, Lynn nodded: "You just said Kate is missing?"

"Yes, Mr. Hall, Kate, who lives here, went missing three days ago. I reported her missing to the NYPD."

But they only did a brief investigation and then didn't reply.

As he spoke, the person in charge led the two toward Kate's room.

Upon arriving at the room, the person in charge said, "This is Kate's room. She just turned eighteen this year and turned to crime because of her family."

"However, she has corrected her ways and has been studying law books on her own. She has told me more than once that she wants to become a lawyer in the future."

"But now she's disappeared!"

No sooner had the manager finished speaking than Alice came over with the photos from the room: "Boss, look!"

The photo shows Lily Cooper and Kate together; judging from their radiant smiles,

They even look somewhat alike.

"Although Lily is a volunteer, she has a very gentle personality and does not discriminate against these criminals in any way."

"So everyone in the correction center liked her, and Kate and Lily were the best of friends."

"Even the law books Kate needed were bought for her by Lily!"

inside the car.

"Have someone check the surveillance footage near where Kate disappeared and see if they can find the culprit!"

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Alice asked, "Boss, do you suspect that the criminal who kidnapped Lily Cooper and Kate is the same person?"

"That's possible, after all, Lily Cooper and Kate look somewhat alike, and they both have ties to this community corrections center."

"yes!"

Upon hearing Lynn's order, Alice immediately nodded.

Half an hour later, inside the FBI.

"Boss, this is the CCTV footage from before Kate was kidnapped!"

Pointing to the surveillance footage, a hooded man suddenly grabbed Kate and shoved her into a silver-gray SUV.

Joey said, "According to the surveillance footage, the same person kidnapped Kate and Lily Cooper!"

Zoom in!

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Joey immediately zoomed in on the footage of the kidnappers abducting Kate.

Looking at the kidnapper in the video, Lynn said, "According to the information, Kate is about 1.67 meters tall. Based on the height difference between the kidnapper and Kate in the video, the kidnapper is about 1.85 meters tall."

"The weight should be around 90 kilograms, and judging from the skin on his hands, the kidnapper is white."

"Joey, zoom in on Kate's lower body!"

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Joey immediately zoomed in on Joey's lower body in the video.

Pointing to the bulge in the jeans pocket, Lynn said, "This should be an earphone case!"

"I understand, boss. These earpieces connect to a cell phone. Even though Kate's phone is off, we can still track her signal through the earpieces."

"Most earphone cases on the market have a charging function, so as long as the earphones have power, we can locate Kate's position through the earphone signal!"

With that, Joey immediately began searching for a signal.

A moment later, Joey clapped his hands and said, "Found it, boss! The signal is in a shop in Queens. I checked the shop's information; it closed down two years ago!"

"Go and see for yourself!"

After saying that, Lynn led Alice and the others toward Queens.

In the basement of a shop in Queens.

"Mew... moan..."

With her hands and feet bound, Lily Cooper stared in terror at the old white man who approached her, her body constantly shifting backward on the ground.

Upon seeing the white man extend his hand, Lily Cooper instinctively turned her head away and closed her eyes in fear.

"Sizzle.:"

The imagined harm did not occur; instead, the white man peeled off the tape covering his mouth.

Seeing that the kidnapper hadn't harmed her, Lily Cooper cautiously opened her eyes, then pleaded in a trembling voice, "Don't hurt me, please... whatever you want, my daddy will..."

"Shh..."

Hearing Lily crying, the kidnapper made a shushing gesture.

Raising his hand to tuck Lily Cooper's disheveled hair behind her ear, the kidnapper said gently, "Don't be afraid, my daughter, no one will hurt you."

"Don't worry, I've killed all those who bullied you. Don't cry, my baby, Daddy promises no one will ever hurt you again!"

Hearing the kidnapper's gentle tone, Lily Cooper became even more terrified.

"I...please let me go, I can give you money."

"What are you saying? How could Daddy take your money?"

Hearing Lily Cooper's terrified voice, the kidnapper's tone softened even more: "Daddy has found a way to make money, and from now on I will give you a good life."

"You no longer need to work to pay off your loans."

When the kidnapper tried to touch her face, Lily Cooper turned her head away in fright.

Seeing this, the kidnapper frowned and said, "Are you disgusted with your father?"

"Mmm...mmm..."

Seeing the kidnapper's tone suddenly turn stern, Kate, whose hands and feet were also bound, made a muffled sound.

Turning his head to look at Kate beside him, the kidnapper frowned.

His eyes darted between Kate and Lily Cooper, and he seemed completely bewildered.

"Hmm..."

Seeing that Kate seemed to have something to say, the kidnapper reached out and peeled the tape off Kate's mouth.

"call.."

With the tape removed, Kate breathed a sigh of relief and immediately flashed a sweet smile: "Daddy, my sister and I are hungry. Can you buy us some food?"

Hearing Kate sweetly call him "Daddy," the kidnapper's face immediately lit up with a doting smile: "Of course, no problem, my sweet daughter."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Kate with some confusion and asked, "My dear daughter, you are my daughter, then who is she? How can I have two daughters?"

"She's my older sister!"

Seeing the kidnapper's confused look, Kate said sweetly, "Dad, you forgot? My sister and I are twins. Mom passed away three years after giving birth to us, and you raised us sisters."

"When I was seven, you bought my sister and me two dresses in different colors. I cried for a long time because of this, wanting my sister's white dress."

Upon hearing Kate's words, the kidnapper seemed to realize something, and then nodded heavily: "You're right, my dear daughter, she's your older sister. I have two daughters, yes, I have two daughters..."

At this point, the kidnapper's face broke into a doting smile again: "Daddy's going to buy you food right now. You two stay home and wait patiently, and don't run around, okay?"

"Okay, Dad, hurry up and go, my sister and I are so hungry!"

"Okay, okay, Daddy will go right away, right away."

The kidnapper raised his hand and ruffled Kate's hair before immediately looking out of the basement.

Kate finally breathed a sigh of relief after the kidnappers left.

Moving closer to Lily, Kate whispered comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, it's alright, Lily."

"Mingming, Kate..."

"Don't worry, Lily. The person who kidnapped us is a madman. His mental state is very unstable. As long as we do as he wants, he won't hurt us."

"It took me three days of being kidnapped by him to slowly find out. Also, never provoke him; he seems to be a mutant. Look ahead."

Kate nodded and looked at the damaged wall in front of her, saying, "That was destroyed by the energy shot from his eyes. He kidnapped me that day and called me his daughter. When I said I wasn't his daughter, he released white beams of light from his eyes in a fit of rage."

As she spoke, Kate gently nuzzled Lily's cheek with her head: "Don't worry, we'll definitely find a way to escape."

"And your father is a senator, so once he calls the police, they will definitely launch an investigation and rescue operation immediately?"

"Therefore, we will definitely be saved!"

Lily Cooper's mood visibly improved after Kate's comforting words.

Although she was still filled with fear, having a familiar person with her made Lily feel much more at ease.

"Actually, I'm quite envious of you."

Looking at Lily, whose head was resting against her, Kate smiled and said, "I envy you in every way. You have a wealthy life, a good educational environment, and a loving father."

Even if you were kidnapped, your senator father could use his connections to get the NYPD to...

I value you even more.

"Unlike me, I lost my parents when I was young, grew up stealing and have a criminal record. Even if someone like me were kidnapped or killed, the NYPD wouldn't give me a second glance."

Hearing Kate say this, Lily paused for a moment before saying, "Kate..."

"Do you know why I always targeted you when you first came to the community corrections center as a volunteer?"

"Actually, envy is only one aspect. Another aspect is that I can't stand you. I always feel that you volunteers are just here to act tough and pretentious."

"They always look down on us with an arrogant attitude, shamelessly telling us what is right and what is wrong."

At this point, Kate chuckled and said, "You don't live like us at the very bottom of society. Forget about stealing, as long as we can survive, we're capable of robbery or even murder."

"Kate."

"But you're different from the other volunteers, Lily. You're truly kind, and the only one who genuinely wants to help us."

Looking at Lily, Kate smiled and said, "Especially after you learned that I wanted to become a lawyer, you actually bought me a lot of law books out of your own pocket and even found a lot of CDs for me to study."

"I'm so grateful to you, Lily. Ever since my parents died, no one has really cared about me!"

Looking into Kate's sincere eyes, Lily pursed her lips and then said softly, "This is what I should do."

Are you still scared?

"Huh?"

"Has your fear subsided a bit?"

Hearing Kate say this, Lily finally realized: "So, you did this to ease my fear? Kate, you shouldn't be a lawyer, you should be a psychologist!"

"Actually, becoming a psychologist wouldn't be so bad, if we manage to get out of here alive."

"Um...shouldn't we shout for help while the kidnappers are gone? Maybe someone will come to rescue us."

When Lily asked her question, Kate shook her head: "It's no use. On the first day he kidnapped me, I screamed for help all night, but no one could hear me."

"I'll give it a try. I've always had a high-pitched voice!"

As she spoke, Lily took a deep breath and then shouted for help.

Kate shook her head as she watched Lily desperately calling for help.

If there were really someone outside who could hear me, I wouldn't have had to shout all night...

"Boom!"

Before Kate could even try to persuade Lily to conserve her energy, the basement door was flung open. Kate was stunned to see a group of heavily armed men rushing in down the stairs.

No, does shouting for help really work?

"Boss, we've found Kate and Lily Cooper!"

Upon seeing the two girls with their hands and feet bound by chains, Alice immediately spoke to Lynn.

Upon arriving in the basement and seeing the two people tied up, Lynn had them untied.

"Mr. Lynn... Lynn Hall?"

When he saw that the person leading the team to rescue him was none other than Lynn Hall, the superhero who led the Illuminati and the Avengers to save the world in the Battle of New York.

Kate suddenly felt a little dizzy.

"Are you all alright?"

Seeing Lily Cooper crying and Kate looking somewhat dazed, Lynn stepped forward and asked.

"It's...it's nothing."

Seeing Lily sobbing loudly in Lynn's arms, Kate instinctively shook her head.

Realizing what was happening, he quickly said to Lynn, "Mr. Hall, be careful of the person who kidnapped us!"

He'll be back soon after he goes out to buy things.

"In addition, he has some mental issues. He treats me and Lily as his daughters, and he is probably a mutant, as he can release energy from his eyes."

Hearing Kate say this, Lynn nodded: "Thank you for informing me, Alice. Take them away first."

"yes!"

Upon hearing Lynn's order, Alice immediately had Kate and Lily escorted out.

After arriving at the closed shop from the basement, Lynn glanced around and then asked Joey to pull up the surrounding surveillance footage to find the kidnapper.

He then pulled up a chair and sat down, waiting for the mutant Kate had mentioned who was mentally unstable to return.

After waiting for a long time without anyone returning, Lynn made a gesture, and then the FBI task force hidden in the shadows withdrew.

Inside the FBI.

"Thank you, thank you so much."

Holding Lynn Hall's hands, Corent Cooper repeatedly expressed his gratitude: "Mr. Hall, I can't even imagine what would have happened if it weren't for you."

In response to Senator Cooper's sincere gratitude, Lynn smiled and said, "This is the FBI's duty."

Mr. Cooper, Ms. Lily was unharmed except for being somewhat frightened.

"So I suggest you find her a psychologist, to avoid this incident leaving her with psychological trauma!"

"I will!"

After thanking them repeatedly, Cooper and his daughter left.

After the two left, Joey shook his head at Lynn and said, "Boss, the surveillance cameras around Queens didn't capture the kidnappers' faces."

"However, based on Kate's description, we hand-drew a portrait of the suspect."

With that, Joey handed the portrait to Lynn.

After taking a look at the photo, Lynn said, "Issue an arrest warrant for this kidnapper and have the NYPD cooperate with us to apprehend him."

"Also, tell them to be careful; the kidnapper is a mentally unstable mutant!"

Upon hearing Lynn's words, Joey immediately nodded.

Seeing Lynn sit back down in his chair, Barbara came up behind him, massaging his shoulders as she asked, "Boss, what should we do with that girl named Kate? Send her back to the community corrections center?"
