The next moment, Matt suppressed his doubts and pushed the door open, walking inside.
Ye Li glanced at him.
Tsk...
That red bodysuit.
He instantly came to a conclusion—
—DD... Daredevil.
Ye Li still had an impression of the superhero Daredevil.
Among Marvel superheroes,
many heroes are quite miserable, always getting tormented by enemies, constantly losing loved ones, and so on.
And Daredevil, Matt Murdock, is a prime example among them.
It's bad enough that he himself is always getting beaten by Kingpin and his subordinates.
His successive girlfriends are also taken hostage by his nemesis, Bullseye, in turns; it's perfectly normal for a girlfriend to die every two or three days, and those who don't die go insane and end up in mental hospitals.
There's a female lead in the Daredevil story named Karen Page, who was originally Murdock's secretary.
After breaking up with Murdock, she even went on to become an adult film actress...
He wondered if she had already started that career.
It could be said that
the life Ye Li desired was—
completely the opposite of what Daredevil experienced...
This guy really has a knack for making his life so miserable.
...
"Hello, sir."
Ye Li sat with his legs crossed, appearing somewhat unconcerned about Murdock.
"Jessica is busy; I'm her brother, Ye Li, meeting you on her behalf.
May I ask if you have a commission?"
"So it's her brother... He doesn't look like her biological brother..."
Matt shook his head at Ye Li, "What I need to discuss, it's better if ordinary people don't know about it. You should also be aware of your sister's identity."
He didn't want to involve ordinary people.
However, a certain someone also didn't want his good sister to get involved with the guys from the future Defenders.
"Then you should also know..."
Ye Li scoffed, "Jessica is just a—a high school student who is still in school.
Her superhero identity has affected your judgment, Daredevil."
"This..."
Ye Li's words
were like a splash of cold water over Murdock's head—
Yes...
How could he involve a high school student?
She's still just a child.
He had indeed overlooked this...
It's one thing for the Female Knight to voluntarily promote justice.
It's another thing for him to come looking for her.
Presumably, this Female Knight's brother is also very unhappy about his sister risking her life as a superhero...
Thinking that he was facing the Female Knight's brother,
Matt sincerely apologized to Ye Li: "I'm sorry, it was my oversight.
Please tell her that I've canceled the meeting."
After apologizing to Ye Li,
Matt felt somewhat ashamed of his oversight and didn't feel comfortable staying there, so he turned to leave.
But the next instant,
his steps suddenly halted.
"...Someone is watching this place and approaching rapidly, and it's not just one group of people..."
Matt pulled out his Billy Club, twirled it, "It might be for me, Mr. Ye, you'd best hide first."
His superhuman hearing allowed him to hear sounds from several blocks away, so he naturally noticed unusual movements.
Ye Li remained seated, his brows slightly furrowed...
He was thinking about how to torment someone...
"Detected Jessica Ye's destined enemy, Purple Man, Zebediah Kilgrave."
...
"That person in the red tight suit..."
A graceful blonde figure crouched on a deserted floor, observing the Detective Agency through binoculars with reconnaissance lenses.
"...That should be Daredevil, who fights crime in the Hell's Kitchen area."
Barbara thought to herself, taking a fried chicken leg from the family bucket at her feet and stuffing it into her mouth.
Having finally caught Ye Li without any girls around, she felt this was an opportunity to approach him, so she followed him.
However, she didn't expect him to come near Hell's Kitchen.
Feeling there was something hidden, she kept her distance and secretly observed from there.
Sure enough,
she soon witnessed Daredevil arriving.
"What is he meeting Daredevil for? Does he want to recruit a new superhero for the Club?"
"Heh heh, there might be a big problem here..."
As the Club grew larger and stronger, coupled with the online popularity of Gwen and several other superhero members,
Nick Fury was now paying much more attention to the Ghost Spider Club.
And Barbara's tasks naturally became heavier.
She was responsible for investigating Ghost Spider, contacting Jessica, investigating Black Cat, contacting Cindy, befriending Skye, investigating Ye Li... and so on.
Just thinking about this, Barbara became exasperated—
"Damn Fury!"
"Doesn't he know I really need help right now? Why isn't Natasha sent over? What is he busy with..."
She bit down hard on a chicken leg, the fragile fried chicken bone snapping— "And that hateful Hill, always putting on airs in communications! If she has the guts, she should come investigate the Club herself; Ye Li would definitely like those long legs... Hmm?"
"Who are these people again?"
Barbara was just thinking about how to drag Hill into trouble when she saw a group of people rapidly approaching the Detective Agency.
Her chewing of the fried chicken leg paused, and she activated the detection lens in front of her binoculars, locking onto the person leading the group.
After a short while,
the detection lens, having analyzed the facial information, retrieved data from the S.H.I.E.L.D. database—
"Supervillain, Purple Man, Zebediah Kilgrave, possesses hypnotic control abilities, capable of controlling hundreds or thousands of people over a wide range... Has committed multiple crimes including rape and gang rape of women..."
"Is that the notorious pervert Purple Man?"
Barbara, also a woman, couldn't help but shiver.
Although trained, she had some resistance to psychic abilities, but she still felt apprehensive about Purple Man.
In a sense,
he was a very dangerous person.
And she heard...
Purple Man wasn't just interested in women...
