My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

Chapter 22 Boy Scouts and 2 Forced Youth

Late at night, Wall Street, Dawn Investment Company.

Wei Chen stared at the computer intently, tapping his fingers on the table meaninglessly.

In the whole room, only the pendulum of the "Time Memorator" (an expensive indoor grandfather clock made in Germany) is moving conscientiously.

The computer screen, cut into several screens, seems to be monitoring a certain target.

"Looks like our fish took the bait!"

The corners of Wei Chen's mouth slightly raised.

"That, Mr. Batman, no, Mr. Eric, can I go back first?"

Cullen sat on the sofa in the corner and asked tremblingly.

The surveillance system that Wei Chen is using was made by Ku Lun.

He created a perfect surveillance system for invisible people by hacking mobile phone microphones and using high-frequency signal collectors for TV and radio.

While looking at Wei Chen, Cullen was worried. He had already committed many crimes such as illegal wiretapping and hacking into the data center of Water Company.

If found out, he would be crippled by those superheroes if he was not imprisoned in Rikers Island Prison.

"I hope Mr. Eric can cover me!"

He whispered a prayer.

"Oh, I'm really sorry, Cullen, I was so selfless that I forgot both the time and you. It's already very late, you can go back."

Wei Chen stood up, ready to send Cu Lun out, and picked up a packaging bag on the table, which contained classic tuna sushi.

Putting the packaging bag into Cullen's hands, he patted him on the shoulder, "This is the takeaway I just ordered, and it hasn't been opened yet. You've stayed with me for a long time, so take it back for supper."

"No, Mr. Eric, you haven't eaten yet, I can't..."

"If you're more polite to me, I'll let you stay with me for another hour."

Wei Chen "threatened" him.

"Well, thank you Mr. Eric."

Cullen quickly caved.

"If only you could be my brother-in-law."

Before leaving, Cullen whispered something.

"What?"

"No...no, I mean my sister would love tuna sushi."

Cullen smiled awkwardly, and ran away holding the tuna sushi.

"Brother-in-law? I take you as a friend, but you want me to be your brother-in-law. It's outrageous."

Wei Chen's ears could pick up the sound of butterflies flapping their wings hundreds of meters away, and of course he could also hear Cullen's whispers.

It's just that he was joking on purpose.

When I returned to the company and looked around, I found that the lights were still on.

Who is still working overtime?

Wei Chen felt that this hardworking employee should be commended.

With great respect for the beaters, Wei Chen walked over lightly.

With the thin light, I found that the overtime worker was an acquaintance—Kate Fox.

At this time, she was wearing a tight white top, with a brown leather jacket slung over her shoulders, with her head lowered, concentrating on a report.

"Hey Fox."

Although he couldn't bear to disturb her, Wei Chen felt that it was better to remind her, because no matter how late he was, he would miss the last subway train.

"Oh! Karma!"

Kate raised her head abruptly, showing a frightened expression.

"Sorry to scare you, but it's late, Fox, you should go back."

Wei Chen pointed to the watch on his wrist.

"call!"

Kate took a long breath, and her chest felt choppy.

"I've been having trouble with this report so I've been trying to fix it. Going to fix it soon!"

Kate explained.

"Believe me, Fox, I don't want to see overtime. As much as I applaud your spirit, I want you to go back first."

"Thanks, it sounds like something is wrong with my productivity.

"

Kate wanted to say something light-hearted and witty, but suddenly felt that this sentence meant complaining to the boss, so she immediately made up for it, "No, I mean, I don't like working overtime either."

Wei Chen:"......"

Kate felt like digging a hole in the ground and burying herself in it.

What does this say?

Embarrassing, I shouldn't have spoken!

Kate's mood turned to depression in an instant, and she had an inexplicable affection for the president. Of course, after all, anyone who gives himself a job with an annual salary of 300,000 yuan, it is impossible not to have a good impression of him.

But tonight's words may make the president think that he has a problematic work attitude.

She suddenly felt sorry for herself.

Wei Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with Kate's work attitude, he just thought that this girl was really careless, like a silly girl.

So he took advantage of the situation to change the topic, "Hehe, I also hate working overtime and so on. Pack up your things, and this is the end of tonight."

Seeing that Wei Chen didn't seem to want to blame, Kate became emotional again, "Yes, President. By the way, did that 'Boy' just leave too?"

"Boy?"

Although Wei Chen has a good command of English, he still doesn't understand some English slang.

"That's what boy scouts mean! Everyone in the company calls him that."

Wei Chen instantly understood who she was referring to.

Boy Scouts... Cullen really has that style!

Wei Chen thinks this nickname suits him quite well.

One thing Wei Chen and Kate don't know is that "Boy" also means a young man.

Poor Cullen...

The two walked out of the company and walked down the street facing the bright lights.

At such a romantic moment, a surge of courage suddenly rose in Kate's heart.

A courage that she didn't know how to come to.

"Mr. Xavier, can you... can I have a cup of coffee with you?"

After saying it, the castle built by the courage in Kate's heart immediately collapsed.

Are you being too deliberate?

She looked at Wei Chen nervously.

Wei Chen was surprised for a second, then nodded slowly, "Of course, but I have something to do tonight, can I do it tomorrow?"

Although Kate was a little disappointed, her excitement still occupied most of it, and she nodded heavily, "Yeah!"

It's not that Wei Chen deliberately refused, but that he really has something to do tonight.

A matter that had to require him to do it himself.

Facing the night wind, he slowly walked towards the invisible man's residence.

At present, all the bait set by himself has been swallowed by the invisible man.

Then it's time to close the net.

In addition, there is another goal of this trip - Compound No. 5.

The Invisible Man is one of the Super Seven in Water Tower, and I hope he can have a better family background so that he will not let himself go for nothing.

Residence of the Invisible Man, an apartment building at 15 Central Park West in Manhattan.

I heard that the transaction price of the penthouse here is 88 million US dollars, which belongs to the chairman of Citibank.

What a damn capitalism!

Wei Chen cast aside a handful of decadent money and capital in his heart.

Walking into the dark alley, Wei Chen opened his backpack and began to change clothes.

In the early stage, you must not use your identity rashly. At least before killing the headshot girl (the superpower who can blow other people's heads out of thin air), you must carefully hide your identity.

This is the standard he set for himself.
