And in the conference room on the 60th floor of the Star Building, a different scene was played out.
Billy, Huey and Frankie who stepped into it all showed their shock to varying degrees. In fact, when they learned that their partner "The Man in Black" was the "King of Heroes" of Ark Company,
They were so shocked that their mouths could swallow a whole duck egg.
Frankie staggered to the leather seat and almost tripped over the table leg. The last one to sit down, he tried to cover up his nervousness with a calm expression and subsequent remedial actions. He lifted his messy hair.
The long-haired mechanical worker who has been living underground all year round coughed and said: "Um... Your Excellency, the King of Heroes, to be honest, we are a little confused about the current situation."
Huey's condition was not much better, but as a fairly righteous young man, he focused more on appealing for his girlfriend: "I want to know, Ark Company is involved in Compound No. 5
Is it? Or..."
Billy was silent, but he looked directly at the electro-optical man opposite him, like a beast that was ready to attack.
"Before we explain, I think there is one thing I need to clarify first. This is also a proof of our cooperation." Akers lifted the black hood on his head, revealing the middle-aged black face.

"You are... the electric person!" Huey, who often watches TV, immediately recognized the owner of this face and blurted out instantly.
"Electric Man?" Billy looked at Frankie who was standing aside.
"Although I am a mechanic who doesn't pay much attention to the outside world, a famous Electro seemed to have appeared in Gotham City a while ago, but I remember that the one who subdued Electro should be the King of Heroes... But just now, it was
The so-called King of Heroes took off his hood." Frankie also looked puzzled.
Billy took a deep breath.
"That's right, our boss, Mr. Robert, has disappeared, and the King of Heroes you met back then must be our chairman of Ark Company, Robert." At this moment when the atmosphere was stagnant, Otto stood firm.
Belly came from the door of the conference room, and Reyes, the HR manager, came with him.
"That is to say, the King of Heroes who participated in the search for Compound No. 5 was temporarily changed from the chairman of Ark Company to the Electron of Ark Company. Can I understand this?" Billy's eyes followed Otto's.
Body movement.
Otto sat on the side of the main seat and moved his butt: "You can indeed understand it this way, and you should also understand the meaning contained in it... The former may be just some private interests of our chairman, but later
The changes, however, mean that our Ark Company will be an important help in your fight against the Watt Company."
"What do you want?" Billy stared closely into Otto's pupils. Whether the King of Heroes is Chairman Robert or the Electro, he only cares about one thing - whether Ark Company can help him deal with Wo
Special company.
"As a scientist, I am naturally extremely interested in Compound No. 5." Otto made no secret of his intention. Even though Compound No. 5 is a product of biological research and has little to do with his mechanical research, it still belongs to the field of energy.
Maybe he can find some new inspiration from it.
Reyes added: "If Ark Company wants to gain the power to rival Vought Corporation, Compound No. 5 is indispensable. Our intelligence has received news that Vought Corporation has many registered superheroes in the Inmet Federation."
There are up to two hundred people, and there are countless super strong people lurking underneath."
"So... you need the relevant research results on Compound No. 5," Billy understood and nodded, "There is no problem with that."
Huey raised his hands and said: "So about my girlfriend..."
Reyes glanced at Huey: "You can take advantage of the situation to appeal. I'm afraid Vought Company will not insist on this point."
"Okay... okay." Huey lowered his arm with an awkward expression.
Seeing that the others did not open the topic for a while, Frankie coughed: "So, about our arrangements..."
"I personally hope that you will get a formal position at Ark Company. Akers has told me about your respective areas of expertise. In the battle of wits with Watt Company, you have indeed demonstrated your abilities." Reye
Si sent two documents to the three people.
Frankie solemnly opened the folder in front of him and read it seriously. He took a breath: "Deputy leader of the Weapons Department! He has a monthly salary of 8,000 federal coins... Oh my God,
There are also subsidies and pensions!”
Billy didn't even look at the document in front of him. He pushed it away, stood up and said: "It is more appropriate to do some shady things without needing these positions. I think you think so too."

Huey looked at the two people with different postures and felt a little uncomfortable, because he was not recruited by Ark Company, but as an employee of an electrical appliance store, he didn't have any outstanding abilities.
Ax wanted to stay for a while, but Otto waved his hand and said calmly: "As you said, doing something shady always requires a guardian in the dark. I'm glad you have such an awareness.
”
"Then our next move..." Billy squinted at Otto.
"Reyes."
Reyes pressed the remote control, and a huge curtain slowly lowered from one side of the wall. The moment the searchlight in the corner suddenly turned on, a relationship diagram made up of half-length photos appeared on it.
Member of the Walt Seven, Locomotive.
Locomotive's Lover, Devil's Claw Girl.
And recently, after following the Claw Girl, they followed the clues and found the supplier of compound No. 5 - the Moxon family.
Looking at the Moxon family heir Luca Moxon in the photo, Akers clenched his fists quietly.
"Luka Moxon, this is the biggest suspect we have recently tracked down the Claw Girl. After all, it is hard to imagine how a woman who worries about rent all day long could know one of the top ten families in Gotham City - the Moxon family.
heir."
Reyes continued his analysis: "Through our investigation, this young master of the Moxon family was already notorious when he was in school. He did nothing when he returned to the family and took up an important position. But even though he is still able to
Secure the position of heir among many outstanding family heirs."
"So, we have great reason to judge that he may be the bridge between Vought Company and the Moxon family on the cooperation on Compound No. 5."
"Moreover, he must have something in his hands that neither party can ignore. This thing is enough for him to successfully inherit the identity of the family patriarch... I think that except for the technology of compound No. 5, there is nothing more suitable than it."
Item."
Billy glanced at the screen for a few times, then turned and left: "I will help you get the core technology of Compound No. 5."
When he came to the door, he paused: "But correspondingly, in addition to dealing with Walter Company, I also want the intelligence of one person, the intelligence analyst of Walter Company, Rebecca."
