American comics: Starting with gaining Spider-Man's abilities

Chapter 56 Aftermath

After finishing everything, Li Buying rushed back to Queens from a secluded corner, arriving home before Ai Yi. She then hid in the basement and lay down on the bed there.

"Things are temporarily over, and we can finally take a break for a while."

Lying on the bed, he opened his phone and looked at the news. The news of Kingpin's death spread quickly, and within just over ten minutes, it had spread rapidly.

Ai Yi may have played a part in this, but Li Buying thinks it was mostly thanks to the people.

There are now many voices online, such as gangsters explaining to ordinary people who "Kingpin" is and what kind of person he is.

People online were immediately intrigued when they learned that Kingpin was actually the great philanthropist Wilson Fisker.

When Kingpin was alive, a large group of people naturally dealt with the issue of his exposed identity, and even the authorities had to keep it a secret to maintain stability.

However, after his death, a dead person is really just a corpse. The authorities may deal with these things to maintain stability, but others are interfering, making it impossible to cover up the truth.

Since the Weaver appeared, three Kingpins have died, and this Kingpin even has the Dark Spider-Man, which is the Weaver's identity.

Other underworld figures, who were already itching to act, immediately urged some of the cyber hackers they supported to spread the news after the incident.

The reason for doing this was, of course, to divide up Kingpin's underground empire together. After the emperor's death, many heroes rose up, and since they were afraid of government intervention, they naturally called on everyone to come and take over.

Seeing the chaos online, Li Buying lay on the bed, waving the spider mask in her hand, her eyes gradually turning fierce and revealing a greedy look.

The long-term mission, "Step by Step," is not over yet; he can continue to kill these gang villains to enhance his abilities.

He also guessed a possibility—if someone wanted to inherit the title of villain, would he also be counted in the mission?

For example, Willis Stryker, nicknamed "Rattlesnake," has already been killed by him. If someone else uses his name, does that make them "Rattlesnake"?

After the truth was revealed, many people found it hard to believe, especially those who had been funded by Kingpin.

They found it hard to believe that the money the kind-faced Mr. Wilson had given them was obtained at the cost of the suffering of others.

Many people online said this must be a rumor, but unfortunately there are still many more people just watching the drama unfold, and some people with ulterior motives quickly posted evidence that was difficult to find.

The buying and selling of "drugs", "parts", and "animals"...

The shady dealings of some companies and gangs were quickly exposed, and by tracing back through the management of these companies, it was soon discovered that they all ended up being linked to Wilson Grant Fisk.

In just over an hour, the reputation of the great philanthropist Wilson was completely ruined, and at the same time, gangs and big corporations had quietly gathered, preparing to swallow up what Wilson had left behind.

Just as Li Buying was browsing online news and gossiping, the sound of the door opening came from above her head, and a line of small text appeared on her phone: "Master, I'm back."

He put away the hood, opened the basement door, and Ai, who looked exactly like him, walked in. She then transformed back into a featureless, unremarkable metal doll.

Ai Yi reported to Li Buying in a calm, mechanical voice, "Those two trackers didn't notice anything unusual about me. The mission is complete. Is there anything else I need to do?"

"That's all, thank you Ai Yi. You're free to move around now. If anything goes wrong, just let me know."

Li Buying reached out and patted Ai Yi's head, deciding to give full play to Ai Yi's "subjective initiative" as an artificial intelligence and let her take action on her own. But as he said this, he remembered what he had to do.

"If possible, could you search for information on gang leaders with special titles or notable deeds?"

"Okay, I understand," Ai nodded and offered her suggestion, "To prevent data redundancy, can I purchase external components such as hard drives myself?"

"I have already quietly transferred a small portion of Kingpin's operating funds, which are now stored in an anonymous account. The items I purchase will be placed in another secure location, not in your name."

Li Buying marveled at the incredible power of artificial intelligence, while also offering her a reminder:

"No problem, but you have to be careful. There are quite a few powerful artificial intelligences in this world, such as a doctor from Hydra who uploaded himself to the data network, and Ultron, who will be born soon."

"Okay, should we prioritize our own safety when searching the internet?"

"Yes." After receiving Li Buying's affirmative answer, Ai Yi set a priority and then began to help him search for and record the gang leader.

It doesn't have a concrete form yet, and it's not planned to appear in the sunlight for the time being; instead, it will stay in the basement.

She can only appear when her image is completely fixed, at which point she can forge all the documents from birth to adulthood.

Looking back at Ai Yi sitting upright in the basement, Li Buying left the basement, stood in front of the garden gate, and stretched her waist vigorously, feeling an unprecedented sense of ease.

Regardless, Kingpin has been dealt with, and Hydra will probably be busy soon.

They're involved in many major events, so they definitely won't have time to worry about a nobody like "Li Buying".

When the time is right, Li Buying can quietly and unexpectedly strike Hydra and eliminate all their key figures one by one!

As for the assassins they sent?

Now that Li Buying knows that her younger sister is a member of the mutant academy, she doesn't need to worry too much about her safety at the academy. She only needs to worry about her safety at home.

The remaining time, naturally, is the time for him to turn all the assassins into nourishment!

With his hands slightly clenched into fists, Li Buying's eyes were filled with excitement. Now he wanted to improve not only the Spider-Man-like abilities of the Weaver, but also the gravity control of Li Buying.

He needs more enemies to feed him, to keep growing until he can defend himself and his sister from anything that threatens their safety.

When Lorna was mentioned, the boy, whose thoughts were wandering, slapped his forehead, took out his phone, and tossed it up and down repeatedly before finally getting through to Lorna.

……

"Hmph hmph hmph~..."

In the misty bathroom, a cell phone lying to the side rang. Lorna Dane, who was lying in the bathtub, picked up the phone, which was covered by a waterproof bag.

Seeing that it was her older brother calling, she immediately pressed the answer button and turned on speakerphone, stretching her soft arms behind her back.

"Hey bro, what made you think of calling me? Were you alone?"

Li Buying rubbed his temples upon hearing the sound of flowing water; Lorna's voice calmed his restless mind.
