Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Winning Over

Seeing that the purple man was foaming at the mouth, Ah Fu raised his right foot high and shouted: "Supernova is falling!"

Soon after the shout, the ground in the alley seemed to shake violently.

A huge roar was heard, followed by the slight sound of eggs breaking.

Even Jessica, who was sitting dazed, was startled back to her senses by the noise.

After this powerful attack, the purple man had lost consciousness.

[Deadly hit the chicken, get Zebediah Kilgrave's reputation value 201]

After contributing reputation points beyond the limit, the purple man completely lost his perception of the outside world.

Ah Fu kicked a few more times, but still heard no crying. His interest in continuing to display his martial arts disappeared in an instant.

He then formed his right hand into a claw, grabbed the purple man's head and held it up, then walked straight to Jessica.

He swung his right hand as if throwing away garbage and threw the purple man in front of the woman who was still slumped on the ground.

"Kill him!" The cold and deep voice brought Jessica back to her senses.

She looked at the muscular man in front of her, then looked at the purple man lying like mud not far away, and suddenly laughed.

With a shrill laugh like the wailing of a ghost, Jessica's body began to tremble gradually.

She wanted, wanted very much to kill the man who had ruined her life, but she couldn't do it...

It all started with Jessica's family trip.

On the way to that trip, their car collided with a military truck loaded with radioactive chemicals.

She was the only one who survived the entire serious traffic accident!

Because of the radiation from chemical agents, she also gained speed and strength far beyond that of ordinary people.

Jessica, who gained extraordinary powers, put on the uniform and became a superhero named "Jewel" without much hesitation.

Until she met Zebediah Kilgrave, nicknamed "Purple Man."

Purple Man had the ability to control others through pheromones.

The moment they met, Jessica was controlled by the Purple Man and imprisoned.

Eight months. She experienced eight months of captivity and training.

This also led to the fact that even if Jessica escaped from the clutches of the devil, she almost lost the courage to seek revenge or even resist.

Even though the purple man was like a dead dog, without any ability to resist, she didn't dare to do anything.

Seeing Jessica's timid look, Ah Fu couldn't help but sigh: "It's easy to defeat the thief in the mountains, but it's hard to defeat the thief in the heart!"

Muttering some very philosophical words, he stepped forward and picked up the purple man, who was like a dead dog, again.

Ah Fu did not try to comfort Jessica but instead threw the person in his hand towards her with force.

Hearing the approaching whistling sound, Jessica, in a trance, instinctively punched the incoming thing.

"Bang!" A big hole was punched in the purple man's chest.

Jessica was stunned for a moment after being splashed with blood. Then, she screamed loudly, as if she was bloodshot:

"It's you, it's you, ah!!!"

Then, she went crazy and punched the purple man again and again, just like she was pounding beef balls.

Ah Fu was also very considerate and left some of the power of the "Horse" talisman for Kilgrave, which briefly saved his life.

"Ah!!!"

The purple man was hit hard continuously and woke up from his coma with pain, but then fainted again.

In this cycle of painful screams and despair, the purple man was beaten into a pool of tough meat paste.

[Consequences of Hypnosis, gain 500 reputation points with Zebediah Kilgrave]

Jessica, who had avenged her great hatred, looked at the pile of unknown objects on the ground and showed a relaxed and hearty smile for the first time in a long time.

After venting her inner pain and despair, she looked up at Ah Fu and was silent for a moment: "What do you want me to do?"

Seeing that the person in front of him was so considerate, Ah Fu smiled with satisfaction and took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over.

"This is... a taxi company?" Jessica looked at the business card and looked puzzled. "Why are you investigating this?"

"Investigation?! No need. I just want you to pay attention and find a suitable time to take a couple of photos."

Ah Fu looked at Jessica calmly and continued, "I won't hide it from you. This matter has certain risks."

"That's the base of the Russian mafia, and there are many desperate criminals there."

Jessica shook the business card in her hand nonchalantly but asked meaningfully:

"Do you want me to find evidence of their crimes? Or do you have another purpose?"

"I have another purpose!" Ah Fu nodded and said, "I have no interest in these Russian gangs."

"My target is the underworld king of Hell's Kitchen, Wilson Fisk, aka the Kingpin!"

"Wilson Fisk? Kingpin? The King of the Underworld?"

Jessica, who had been a third-rate private investigator, muddle-headed and drinking all day long, had never heard of this name.

Seeing her confused look of "I don't know anything," Ah Fu was not surprised and took out another business card from his pocket and handed it over:

"If you want to know Kingpin's story, you can go find him."

"Okay!" Jessica did not refuse. She took the business card and looked at it: Matt Murdock?! A lawyer?!

What is the connection between a mafia king and a lawyer? Does this underworld emperor also need a lawyer to defend him? I feel like this emperor is a bit out of touch...

Ah Fu ignored Jessica's inner tangle and confusion and said to himself:

"Although Kingpin and the Russian Mafia are currently in a cooperative relationship,"

"their leaders believe that anyone with the ability and territory can compete for Kingpin's position as the gang leader."

"Unfortunately, Kingpin may no longer need the Russians as thugs to solve problems."

"What does this mean? Did Kingpin get more powerful help?"

"Besides, if your target is Kingpin, and he wants to give up on the Russians, then why did you ask me to take those pictures of them?"

Jessica put away the two business cards and looked at Ah Fu with confusion.

Facing her question, Ah Fu hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "Because I want to know how they died!"

"Ah???"

Ah Fu looked at Jessica, who was even more puzzled, with a serious look in his eyes, and his tone was also extremely solemn:

"I suspect that Kingpin, or his men, have acquired some power that is completely unhuman."

"And that powerful force will bring unspeakable disasters."

"So, I want to determine who it is and try to recover it."

"If we allow this power to run rampant, perhaps the entire Hell's Kitchen will be affected."
