American comics: The Savior Who Started with Vampires

Chapter 54 A Rare Day of Peace

The next few days were unexpectedly calm.

Lin Jue, along with Dam and Emily, explored most of Boston's tourist attractions.

They even saw a sculpture standing in the center of the central square – "Wonder Woman".

The sculpture is engraved with the text and the date "1915" next to it.

"1915...oh shit, I really am a...what's that classic Chinese term again?"

Danmu looked at Lin Jue with a pleading expression.

"A frog in a well!"

"Ah, yes, I'm such a frog in a well. The young and beautiful lady we saw yesterday actually existed in 1915?"

"Shit!"

During this time, he not only traveled around sightseeing, but also, after what happened that night, he intentionally looked up relevant information. Now, he felt that he could not contain his amazement, and even Emily next to him looked at him with admiration.

For ordinary people like them, it is unimaginable that their appearance could remain unchanged over such a long period of time!

Unlike them, Lin Jue's brows were tightly furrowed. Behind Wonder Woman was a heavy stone sculpture. The appearance of this stone sculpture was not clear, as if it was covered by something. At first glance, it looked like a stone as tall as a person!

The sculpture caught my eye, but I found that there were no words carved on its base; it stood there as if it were just an accessory.

……

Gotham East.

"Wow!"

Emily rushed excitedly into the bar that was completely unrecognizable before her eyes, which had a luxurious floor-to-ceiling window and a rustic interior.

"This is...my bar?"

Bang! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The confetti canisters exploded instantly, and Jordan and the others hiding behind the door all grabbed their confetti canisters, and in a flash, colorful confetti rained down.

Emily looked at Jodson with a pleasant surprise.

"Uncle Jodson, is this really my bar?"

"Haha, there's still some budget left over from the money you gave me!" Jodson said with a smile.

Surprises kept coming, and Emily's little face lit up with an excited smile as she ran quickly to each dining table, looking at the carefully arranged, brand-new tabletops and admiring the delicate patterns on them.

She cheered continuously, looking extremely excited!

Even Lin Jue, who entered the bar later, was somewhat surprised to see the completely renovated bar. Compared to the previous cramped and crowded bar, it was now almost twice the size, and the decorations were more exquisite. Warning signs were still hanging in various parts of the bar, and it had not lost its original warm and harmonious atmosphere!

"Good heavens! How come this bar is so much bigger?" Dam walked in somewhat irritably, looking at Jordson, who was currently staring at Emily, with admiration.

The entire subsequent renovation work was done by this unassuming middle-aged man!

Emily, who had quickly become familiar with the various decorations in the store, darted to the bar.

"Uncle Jodson, you absolutely have to stay for a drink!"

Emily spoke quickly as she ran towards the wine rack. Seeing Emily's excited appearance, Jordan smiled kindly. His gaze lingered on Lin Jue for a moment, and the two smiled at each other and nodded to one another.

Soon, bursts of laughter filled the bar, attracting the usual patrons who came to check out Emily's Tavern.

As more and more guests arrived, the atmosphere inside the bar became increasingly lively.

Lin Jue quickly moved between the tables, bringing bottles of beer that Qiao Desen had prepared in advance to the bar.

"Hmm, have you heard about it lately?"

"Yeah, I heard Batman was badly injured by a group of mysterious people. Damn it! This is going to start another wave of crime!"

"Shh, Emily's Tavern just opened today, let's not talk about these things!"

"Ah, okay, okay!"

He could hear the words behind him, and even in a noisy environment, Lin Jue could glean the information he wanted from the different conversations.

Looking out the bar window, as night fell, fewer and fewer pedestrians appeared, with motorcycles occasionally speeding by.

The once quiet night on Wallier Street seemed to have returned to its original state.

As customers smiled and said goodbye to Emily, they walked out of the store. Lin Jue came to stand in front of Danm, who had four empty bottles of whiskey on his table and looked slightly tipsy.

"Would you like me to give you a ride?"

"No need! Haha, I was just having a good time today, and I couldn't help myself!"

Dam shook his fat arm, a big smile on his face, and then stood up unsteadily. His home was actually not far from Emily's tavern; he would be there in no time.

Watching her friend slowly walk out of the store, Emily tiptoed up behind Lin Jue.

Hearing that familiar heartbeat, Lin Jue didn't turn around, pretending not to notice.

"ha!"

Suddenly, a small head popped out from the side and made a funny face, causing Lin Jue to instinctively flinch.

Emily cheered excitedly for successfully startling Lin Jue.

Lin Jue smiled helplessly.

"Dam is actually still in school!"

Emily said as she tidied up the bottles on the table.

"Going to school? He does look young..."

"I heard she's always being bullied at school, so she hasn't gone back this year. Sigh!"

"Is that so?"

Lin Jue frowned subconsciously. Dan had always given him the impression of being sunny and humorous, which made him subconsciously ignore the scene when he first met Dan.

Those who appeared to be beating him at the time were indeed wearing clothing similar to American high school uniforms, though only a few of them were.

After the two finished cleaning up the bar, it was almost midnight. After saying goodnight to each other, they quickly fell asleep.

At this moment, at the Gotham Police Department, located in the heart of the East Side, officers were still busy at work.

"Sigh, hasn't the judge made a move for many days now?"

One of the officers said with some complaint.

"Yes, the number of police reports has started to surge again these past few days. It feels like we're about to go back to the old ways!"

"What a joke! When did maintaining order become the job of a supervillain? Do you even know what you're talking about?"

"...You're so arrogant, so awesome, you'll lead the charge next time!"

"..."

The Black police officer looked distressed, with dark circles under his eyes, though it wasn't obvious from his appearance... He hadn't slept for almost three days!

boom!

The sound of shattering glass rang out, and a police officer couldn't help but shout angrily, but a speeding car passing by the police station sped past.

Shouts and calls rang out one after another.

"Fuck!"

A police officer instantly drew his pistol and rushed toward the door, but was quickly stopped by his colleague.

"calm!"

George, who was in the back, shouted angrily. The officer, with a look of humiliation on his face, slumped back into his seat and threw the brick on the table out the broken window.
