Chapter 46 Confrontation
Peter has long been used to Gwen's lack of tone, so he doesn't bother to pay attention to her nonsense and just explains himself.
"Wearing the ring on your little finger will not affect your use of the spider silk launcher, nor will it affect your combat."
Gwen slapped herself on the face and murmured:
"It's amazing. I'm trapped in a tight siege, and my teammate next to me is a Bateman who only cares about whether the engagement ring will affect my fighting and shooting spider webs. I'm really curious as to why I got involved in the first place."
But she soon realized something was wrong. She looked at her arms blankly, but only saw air. Then she hurriedly looked at the ground and found that even her shadow had disappeared.
"oops, it seems that my simplest method has been exposed."
Peter fumbled with his multifunctional belt, pulled out the antique revolver, and threw it directly to the invisible Gwen.
The moment Gwen subconsciously caught the pistol, it disappeared.
Then Peter lifted the unconscious Milk into the air again. Gwen, who roughly guessed Peter's thoughts, immediately picked up Milk.
However, this time Milk did not disappear completely, but more like he was covered with camouflage paint. Obviously the effect of the invisibility ring has reached its limit, but fortunately it can still cover him in such a dark night.
body shape.
Gwen hugged Milk's arm tightly, and then promised softly:
"After I escape the encirclement, I will immediately attract their attention and let you leave here."
Peter looked at where Gwen was just now with an idiot look in his eyes.
"You still come back to attract their attention? Don't you understand the true purpose of this trap? Fisk just wants you to show up. As long as you show up here, no matter what happens here, he will be able to throw away the dirty water."
When it comes to you, even I will have nothing to do with you.
So the only thing you have to do is to send Milk away, inform Diane of the result, and then find a place to hide and wait for Diane to complete the negotiation.
As long as her negotiations go smoothly, our mission will be successfully concluded."
"What about you?!"
Facing Gwen's anxious questioning, Peter calmly took out a mobile phone and a business card from his belt, and calmly used his mobile phone to send messages.
"Me? What can go wrong with me?
As you said, I am an innocent person. As long as you take away the revolver, the police will have no reason to arrest me. At most, they will only take off my mask.
I'm different from you. I'm not a superhero. I'm just Diane's temporary bodyguard. Even if my true identity is exposed, it won't affect anything.
It’s better for you to leave now. That invisibility ring is not omnipotent. It cannot cover up your smell and temperature. If you continue to stay here, you will be discovered sooner or later.”
After hearing Peter's explanation, Gwen bit her lower lip. After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally decided to act according to Peter's instructions. She carried Milk on her back, opened the window, and jumped out lightly.
Before leaving, she said quickly and quietly:
"Thank you..."
Peter raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he was thanked by Gwen since he met and cooperated with her again.
He kept Gwen's small gratitude in his heart, and then watched coldly as the police outside the manor gradually approached the huge castle.
In order to get Gwen to leave, he more or less mixed some lies with the truth.
For example, this trap is not only prepared for Gwen. No matter who comes to kidnap Milk, this trap will be launched, and the best result is naturally to catch them both.
Another example is his mask. In fact, Peter and Gwen are the same. What is hidden under this mask is their most important secret. Once exposed to the public eye, it will have irreparable consequences on their lives.
And Peter's consequences are even more serious.
He couldn't even imagine how Gwen would react when she discovered her true identity.
However, Peter did not sacrifice himself when he put the invisibility ring on Gwen's hand to let her escape.
In order to escape this trap, he prepared some special means.
Not long after, the policeman who was at the forefront had arrived at the gate of the castle. He knocked on the gate violently and roared:
"Listen to the people inside, open the door immediately! We have a search warrant! Don't let me..."
Before the word "repetition" was uttered, the side door next to the main door had been opened, and what came out was a young man wearing a Batman mask and all black clothes.
I saw him slowly walking out of the door. When he saw that he was surrounded by dense police officers, he did not panic at all. He just asked calmly:
"So where's the search warrant? I want to see it with my own eyes."
The police officer who just knocked on the door was shocked by Peter's outfit. He immediately reached out to touch the holster of his gun, and the several police officers behind him also looked like they were facing an enemy.<
/p>
"Raise your hands! Let me see your hands!"
"Lie down on the ground! Don't move around!"
The two police officers issued completely opposite instructions, but both of them repeated the instructions without realizing it. They didn't seem to feel that there was any contradiction between their own instructions and those of their companions.
Peter looked at the two of them with disdain, and after confirming that all the law enforcement recorders on their chests were turned on, he smiled contemptuously:
"This is private property. If you don't have a search warrant, you'd better leave immediately, otherwise the police department will receive a very exquisite bill tomorrow. Believe me, the lawn at the door alone will cost the New York Police Department."
Budget for the next two years."
Peter's move of turning his back on the guest obviously calmed several police officers. Peter's unexpected warning made them all silent for a moment. No one could guess that the Bateman in front of them actually broke in half an hour ago.
Intruders here.
But Peter does have some confidence.
After all, he can be regarded as Diane's temporary bodyguard. With the support of the head and heir of the Bernano family, he is naturally qualified to scold the police who broke into the manor.
Although several police officers were shocked by Peter for a while, they quickly came to their senses. They were obviously very unhappy when faced with people who dared to question them.
One of them found a seemingly reasonable reason without even thinking about it.
"Your behavior is very suspicious, so now I want you to show your ID and take off your helmet!"
And Peter immediately rejected him.
"My name is Peter, and I am Diane's personal bodyguard. Now I am responsible for guarding this place. This is the only information I will tell you.
Now you'd better produce the search warrant immediately, otherwise you will be suspected of illegally trespassing on private property!
According to the Castle Law, I have the right to use violence against intruders!"
Peter's words were obviously regarded as a provocation by several people, and the police officer standing at the front emphasized his tone and angrily said:
"When a police officer asks you to show your ID, you have an obligation to cooperate!"
Peter laughed out loud.
"You actually made up a new law in front of so many police officers. Didn't anyone tell you before you joined the company that you can only ask me to produce my ID unless you have reason to suspect that I have committed or am committing a crime?"
As Peter took another step forward, a police officer took out his weapon and pointed it at Peter. This directly triggered a chain reaction of other police officers, who all aimed their guns.
If they hadn't been concerned about the power and financial resources of the Bernano family, they might have emptied their magazines long ago.
Then other police officers began to gather here, surrounding the entire castle.
However, Peter did not show any fear. He looked around at the police officers who were aiming their weapons at him, and said coldly:
"You'd better think carefully about what you're doing. Now I repeat it for the last time. If you don't have a search warrant, you'd better leave here immediately. These twelve hectares of land belong to the Bernano family. The entry fee is very expensive, and...
