Chapter 2 Crisis
Not long after Ailin called the police, police cars roared past and surrounded the hotel where Ailin woke up.
After a brief but fierce exchange of fire.
Two bodies were lifted out of the hotel, and Gwen Stacy was quickly rescued and sent to the hospital.
······
Gwen Stacy was rescued, but Aylin, who was hiding aside, felt a little cold in her heart.
Two.
The police only carried out two bodies and did not escort out the third person. He clearly heard three people outside the door before.
Of the three people, only two were lifted out in the end, which means that one of them escaped during the police roundup.
Aylin doesn't know who the person who escaped is.
But he knew he was in big trouble.
It doesn't matter whether those people entered the room before the police arrived.
Just from the fact that the police only rescued Gwen Stacy in the room this time, as long as the group did a little research, they would know that they had already escaped before the police stormed the hotel.
Thinking about this precise raid by the police, if that group of people were not stupid enough, they would most likely blame this debt on themselves.
Then you will be in danger.
In this way, there are only two ways to go before you.
One is to go to the New York Police Department and seek protection as a victim.
Seeing that she had made that phone call and saved Gwen Stacy, Aylin believed that her father, George Stacy, would not mind giving her a helping hand.
But is that... really safe?
Before, when the guys who kidnapped him were chatting, what he heard was that Gwen Stacy was kidnapped because one of George Stacey's enemies was dissatisfied with him.
Can you really protect yourself?
And being able to grasp the whereabouts of George's daughter so accurately, Aylin has reason to suspect that the big shot those guys mentioned is a member of the New York Police Department.
If this is the case, then if you go to the police station to seek help, you are really throwing yourself into a trap.
"No, I can't leave my life and safety in the control of others."
Aylin, who had just traveled through this world and was wary of everything and seriously insecure, almost subconsciously rejected this path.
Placing your life on the kindness of others is not what Aylin wants.
In this case.
Then he can only find a way to solve this trouble by himself.
But before that, I have to go home first.
Thought of this.
Aylin turned around and walked towards Chinatown, where "he" had lived for more than ten years.
······
He took out the key and unlocked the door, and walked into the old-fashioned three-story apartment left to him by his mother. As soon as the door was opened, he saw Pepper Potts wearing a blanket and sitting on the sofa in the living room with a frown.<
/p>
Pepper Potts turned around when she heard the sound of the door opening, and happened to see Aylin standing at the door.
The moment she saw Aylin, Pepper Potts' frown immediately relaxed by seven points, but then tightened by another three points. Pepper took off the blanket, stood up, looked at Aylin, and said:
"It's not a good habit to stay up late at night. Can you tell Aunt Pepper where you went last night?"
Aylin was also stunned when he saw Pepper Potts.
And it looks like Pepper Potts has been waiting here all night.
But soon, fragments of memory flashed through his mind, reminding him of who the person in front of him was.
Pepper Potts.
Personal assistant to Stark Industries Chairman Tony Stark.
He was once a partner in Aylin's mother Kelly Lin's company, and also Aylin's mother's best friend.
When Kelly was alive, she invited Pepper Potts to stay in this small building many times, and even gave Pepper Potts a key.
When Kelly died in a car accident, Aylin seemed to have lost his soul and was confused.
At that time, Kelly's funeral and the subsequent inheritance were all handled by Pepper Potts. If it hadn't been for Pepper Potts, Kelly's inheritance would have been divided up by the group of vampires.
With the virtue of those vampires, it would be considered a great mercy to leave this three-story building to Aylin.
Not to mention any legacy.
Moreover, the reason why Aylin, who is an orphan, can still attend one of the top colleges in New York, such as Midtown High School, is also due to Pepper's great efforts.
After recalling the relationship between Pepper and his predecessor, Aylin's eyes lit up. It seemed that there was another way.
Without hiding anything, Aylin recounted everything that happened today to Pepper Potts in detail.
"What..."
After listening to Aylin's description, Pepper Potts' expression changed.
Originally, she thought that Aylin had reached puberty and went to the bar with that gangster friend, or made a date with that girl and spent the night out.
Pepper wouldn't say much about that kind of thing, and would only tell Aylin to pay attention to safety and not to cause any harm.
After all, she was young too.
But who knew that Aylin's experience last night would be much more exciting than she imagined.
Kidnapping.
Gangster.
Police.
Dead man.
When all these elements are gathered together, you can make a youth idol drama.
After quickly realizing the potential danger, Pepper Potts immediately pulled Aylin and said seriously: "Leave this matter to me and I will solve it. Don't go home for the next few days. Come and stay at my place."
A few days."
Aylin shook his head when he heard this, "Aunt Pepper, I'm very grateful for your help. As for me, I won't go back with you."
The community where Pepper Potts lives is a middle-class community dominated by white people. Although the security is much better than that of Chinatown, the improvement is limited.
If Aylin stayed with him, his safety wouldn't be guaranteed, and he might even get involved with Pepper Potts.
This is not what Aylin wants.
When Pepper Potts heard this, he thought Aylin didn't want to leave his home, so he put his hands on Aylin's shoulders and analyzed the pros and cons to Aylin in a serious tone: "If it's like what you said, then
The people who kidnapped you have actually been targeting you for a long time. Until the matter is resolved, it is not safe for you to stay here alone, Aylin."
"Believe me, when the time comes, you only need to stay at Aunt Pepper's house for a few days like you did when you were a child. When the matter is resolved, Mystery will send you back."
Before Pepper Potts could finish speaking, Aylin spoke again: "I know, Aunt Pepper, I don't want to inconvenience you. I will find a place to hide myself these days. Chinatown is very big and very exclusive.
, it’s not easy for those outsiders to find me here. Don’t worry, Aunt Pepper, I will protect myself.”
"Moreover, the New York Police Department is not a vegetarian. Those people kidnapped the police chief's daughter. Now they may not even be able to protect themselves, but they may not necessarily think of me."
