Chapter 6
In fact, Popclaw was a negligible minor character in the plot, basically only appearing a few times.
But the reason she could be remembered by Alvin, and even left a deep impression on him, stemmed from a quite 'explosive' plot.
Note, it was 'explosive' in the literal sense.
Popclaw, who was on drugs, in order to take revenge on A-Train, seduced a normal person's landlord to have an affair.
As a result, at the most 'high' moment, she sat on the landlord's face and used her powerful gluteus maximus and thigh muscles to forcefully crush the man's head!
That scene was truly memorable for Alvin; he had to sincerely admire that America really knew how to play!
Of course, in terms of the degree of perversion, the above plot couldn't even rank in the top ten of the entire show.
It was enough to show how chaotic this world was; it was Slaanesh's delight.
Alvin silently performed an Aquila sign in front of his chest.
Secretly rejoicing that there were no die-hard lunatics from the Inquisition, otherwise they would probably have signed an Exterminatus without hesitation and taken the entire planet to burn glass.
"Phew, fortunately, it's at the beginning of the plot."
Alvin rubbed the bridge of his nose and roughly simulated his next plan in his mind: "This is the only opportunity in the early stage to get Compound V."
Vought International's management of 'Compound V' was very strict; although it appeared several times in the show, every location was a secret laboratory.
For one, he didn't know the location of the secret laboratory; for another, even if he knew the location, with Vought's security forces, it would be very difficult for him to break in and take the Compound V.
But Heaven never closes all doors; Popclaw... was the breakthrough!
This had to start with Popclaw's identity; she was A-Train's underground girlfriend, and their relationship hadn't been made public.
And A-Train was a member of The Seven pushed by Vought, so he had many opportunities to come into contact with Compound V.
In order to monopolize the title of the fastest speedster and the world record, A-Train secretly hid a portion of Compound V in Popclaw's apartment, keeping it from Vought.
Although Alvin knew very well that that batch of Compound V was a temporary drug, it could only grant superpowers for 24 hours.
And with the increase in the number of injections, it would cause serious damage to the human body, but he still didn't intend to give up this opportunity.
But plans were plans, and Alvin soon discovered the problem.
He didn't understand American cities, nor did he have any identity; he was basically a black-listed person, so wanting to find out Popclaw's apartment was simply harder than finding a needle in a haystack.
After thinking for a few seconds, Alvin set his target on the protagonist group.
"Butcher is a very good entry point."
Swallowing the last mouthful of cola, Alvin left the fast-food restaurant.
In his mind, he already had a complete process; next, he had to solve the black-listed person problem, and secondly, find the protagonist group.
Finding specific target characters in a modern metropolis with a population of nearly ten million was no less difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
But, this was America.
There was no problem that couldn't be solved by the power of money.
If there was, it was because the money wasn't enough!
Alvin's method was very simple: step one, go find the black brothers to borrow money; step two, let the gang find people.
Although the black brothers were poor, they were numerous!
As long as he drilled into the slums, the black brothers could be refreshed continuously, just like a goblin tribe outside the novice village.
After experiencing the simple and plain tradition of America's hospitality, Alvin, clutching the 'huge sum' of several thousand dollars, left the 'novice village' politely under the 'reluctant' retention of the black brothers.
As for why he could be so arrogant without being sanctioned by superheroes, Alvin could only say... you don't understand America.
Superheroes wouldn't protect poor people; if they had this spare time, they might as well take on two endorsement advertisements.
As for realizing the second step, that was even simpler.
Most gangs, although they looked fierce, were actually the most cowardly.
Alvin didn't understand America, but he understood scum very well.
In fact, when he used the deflection field to shoot a dozen guys who didn't have eyes, the entire gang surrendered obediently.
They thought Alvin was a superhuman; otherwise, there was no way to explain why bullets would automatically deflect when they hit him.
No one wanted to die, and scum... were often even more afraid of death!
Thus, after Alvin scattered money and shot a few pieces of scum, the gang operated with unprecedented efficiency, and in just one morning, they found the target person.
Facts proved that when people were forced into a corner, besides math problems, they could do anything.
According to the address found, Alvin drove to the location alone.
Who knew, just as he arrived at the entrance of the store where Hughie Campbell worked, he saw the two of them acting as if they were high on drugs, punching wildly at empty air.
"Yo, good luck, I actually ran into the plot."
Alvin was a bit pleasantly surprised; he had come at just the right time.
This plot segment was Butcher bewitching Hughie to install a bug at Vought, but they were discovered by Translucent, and then a battle broke out as he followed them.
But Hughie was just an ordinary office worker, his combat power was almost zero, and he was knocked down in one round.
Butcher, although he knew a little bit of boxing and kicking, was essentially still a human; he could go back and forth with Translucent at the beginning, but soon fell into a disadvantage.
Alvin sat in the car, not intending to help at all, took out his phone unhurriedly, aimed the camera at the store, and started recording the video.
Soon, Butcher was knocked to the ground, and just as he was about to be in mortal danger, Hughie suddenly had a flash of inspiration and used a torn wire to directly electrocute Translucent.
The two sat on the ground, panting, looking with lingering fear at Translucent, who had become visible after being electrocuted.
"It's my turn to appear."
Seeing the battle end, Alvin knew his opportunity had come, so he got out of the car slowly and unhurriedly.
Butcher and Hughie in the store were still in shock when they suddenly heard the sound of the door opening.
"Ah!"
Hughie, who had already done something guilty, was directly startled and let out a scream.
You know, they had just electrocuted Translucent, who was a star hero of Vought; if they were discovered, they would be finished!
Butcher was quite calm, looking at the uninvited guest who had broken in for the first time.
He thought it was someone sent by Vought, but he didn't expect it to be a youth who looked a bit delicate and thin.
"Good evening, gentlemen."
Under their tense gazes, Alvin said unhurriedly: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Alvin, I hope I haven't disturbed your interest."
"What... what should we do? We've been seen!" Hughie was already scared silly and could only look at Butcher helplessly.
Butcher didn't pay attention to Hughie; he was equally nervous, sweat seeping from his forehead, staring vigilantly at Alvin: "Are you from Vought? Or are you from the CIA?"
"No, no, no, I'm just an ordinary person."
Alvin ignored the electrocuted Translucent, his leather shoes stepping on the broken glass all over the floor, and walked slowly to Butcher: "Mr. Billy Butcher, I'm not concerned with what you've done, I just hope to reach a deal with you, a deal that is very beneficial to both of us."
"I never make deals with people, let alone people of unknown origin."
Butcher sneered, a look of disdain on his stubbly face, and refused the proposal without hesitation.
"Oh, that's truly a pity."
Alvin showed a look of regret, appearing a bit disappointed, and sighed helplessly: "I thought you loved your wife very much; now it seems that's not the case."
"Becca? You know where Becca is?!"
Hearing news of his wife, Butcher couldn't sit still anymore.
Very good, he really took the bait.
Looking at Butcher's excited reaction, Alvin knew this deal was done!
"No need to rush, Mr. Butcher."
He smiled calmly, not fast or slow: "Please calm down first, and then find a safer place, and then we can sit down and talk, how about that?"
