Become Aquaman from Black Robe

Everything you do will leave traces.

Kevin knows this too.

On the day of the plane hijacking, Kevin asked Starlight to go to the Crime Analysis Department to locate the specific locations of Maeve and the Homelander. Through this operation, Kevin could determine the location of the Homelander and Maeve on the vast sea.

As a member of the Seven, Starlight has the authority to use any resources of the Criminal Analysis Unit, including locating other members of the Seven.

Although it stands to reason that this kind of thing should be reported to Madeline first, Starlight can only do this after getting Madeline's approval.

But sometimes, the members of the Seven just need to be tougher, and they can position themselves as superheroes even without Madeline's consent.

Starlight took advantage of such a privilege that day.

It's just that Starlight can be used, and the staff naturally has the right to report it.

Regardless of the outcome of the hijacking incident, it was an inexplicable thing that Kevin asked Starlight to locate the location of the Motherland and Maeve that day.

Kevin had thought that the Walt Group would come to Starlight to question him, but before that, Kevin thought that the person who came to ask would be Madeline.

But I didn’t expect that it would be BOSS Edgar, who only really appeared in the second season.

After Edgar asked the question, he stopped talking and waited for Kevin's answer.

Kevin stared at the photo and answered after a while:

"Because I thought the people of my motherland were going to do something...bad."

"for example?"

"Such as this."

Kevin took out a syringe with blue liquid remaining from his uniform pocket.

This was the syringe found that day in the room where Kimiko was kept in the basement. Originally, Kevin had been hiding it at home, but these days, he carried it with him.

For this moment.

Kevin placed the syringe on the table and carefully observed Edgar's face.

But unfortunately, Edgar was too calm, and even when he saw the syringe of compound No. 5, his expression did not change at all.

He just said lightly:

"very funny."

Edgar's reaction was not unexpected by Kevin. In fact, he knew very well that even if he knew about Compound No. 5, even if he was tracking down people from his motherland, as long as he did not touch the interests of the Walter Group, Kevin would be safe.

That's why Kevin is here and dares to take out Compound No. 5.

After all, this is not a secret at all to some people in the Walter Group.

"Judging from your reaction, you seem to be familiar with this thing?"

"Of course, because this is one of the products of the Watt Group. It's called Compound No. 5. Its function is to turn ordinary humans into superhuman beings with superpowers. But so far, it can only be injected into babies."

Kevin's eyes widened slightly, showing appropriate surprise. Then he seemed to suddenly remember something and asked:

"Baby...you mean that our...superpowers...are not innate?"

"This is not a secret to some people. Many people in the seven-man team know about it, including the people of the motherland, the locomotive, the transparent people... and now you are added to the list."

Including the retired lamplighter and black who was specially ignored by Edgar.

Most members of the seven-man team are actually very aware of what the Watt Group is doing.

Only a few people don't know, such as Maeve, Starlight, and... the deep sea before.

The first two people didn't know it simply because they still had a bright and righteous side in their hearts, and after analysis by the Walter Group, they were not suitable to know the truth.

So I didn't tell them.

As for the deep sea...

It’s just that I’m simply not qualified.

Just like Shen Hai mocked himself before, he was just a member of the seven-man team that he grabbed to make up the numbers.

How could he be qualified to know about Compound No. 5?

But it seems different now.

In Edgar's eyes at this moment, Kevin is obviously qualified to know about this matter and can let Edgar tell him about it personally.

After Edgar said this, he said nothing, seemingly giving Kevin time to digest the information.

Kevin's eyes were a little dull and he leaned back on the chair for a long time. After a long time, he said:

"Then...is it the group's instruction that the people of the motherland inject...injections into adults?"

"Would you be disappointed if I said yes?"

Edgar asked with a smile.

"...what's the disappointment?"

"Disappointment cannot bring down the people of the motherland through this incident."

Edgar said something shocking, and Kevin opened his mouth slightly, not knowing how to answer.

"What? No? That's disappointing. The Walt Group, which has always been the backing of superheroes, would actually do such...'evil' things?"

Edgar said, suddenly smiled and said to Kevin:

"But I think you don't care about such things, Mr. Moskowitz. You actually don't care whether something is justice or evil. You don't even care about the orders given to you by your motherland.

"You only care about one thing in your life."

Edgar paused for a moment, looked at Kevin seriously, and after a while, he said one word:

"money."

Kevin was silent for a while:

"You say that as if you know me well."

"Through the group's observation and psychological analysis of your image, I can say with certainty that yes, we know you very well.

"It's just that that was something in the past. In fact, now we are building a brand new character model for you to distinguish you from the previous you. And through the new character model, we can easily see that Moscow Mr. Weisz, you like money."

There is no need to analyze this. If you take a random person and observe Kevin's recent performance, you will know that he really likes money.

Even though most of his money is now saved, there are no particularly high expenses.

But he just loves saving money.

Edgar also took a fancy to this.

He smiled and said:

"Whether you are tracking Compound No. 5 or this rescue operation, you are working for your own interests, so let us talk about it, Mr. Moskowitz... No, the deep sea."

Edgar sat upright and looked at Kevin:

"I wonder what you think of the position of captain of the Seven?"

Not the boss, what do you mean? !

Kevin leaned back slightly and stared at Edgar with dilated pupils.

This time he was really surprised, even more surprised than when he saw Edgar come to him in person.

The captain of the Seven-man team represents extraordinary significance. He is the most famous star and the most popular superhero in the United States, and will be a being sought after by all people.

It is also the best and most proud ‘representative work’ of the Watt Group.

The last one to receive such treatment was a soldier boy, and this time it is a boy from the motherland.

Regardless of whether he is a soldier boy or a native of the motherland, Kevin does not think he is qualified to replace them.

But now I heard that Edgar wanted to train Kevin to be the captain of the seven-man team?

Is this guy trying to paint a pie for me?

Kevin looked at Edgar in surprise and suspicion. After thinking for a long time, he exhaled slightly and asked solemnly:

"Mr. Edgar, I am honored, but I am also surprised. Why me?"

"Because you are more sensible than the people of the motherland."

"Where did you make your judgment? Just because of my rescue just now?"

"Not only that, you are better than the people of the motherland in many places."

Edgar used the word 'powerful' to describe Kevin, and Kevin knew that this was by no means referring to superpowers.

Edgar seems to be very optimistic about Kevin and even wants to train Kevin to be the next captain of the seven-man team, but Kevin never knows what his real purpose is.

The same is true in the original work. Edgar seems to be just trying to keep the big ship of the Walt Group going.

But what about actually?

In fact, Kevin is not really too afraid of the people of his motherland.

After all, the people of the motherland are easy to coax, and they can say nice things casually, and when it comes to his heart, the people of the motherland will be lifted up and will not care about Kevin's offense to him.

But Edgar is different. Edgar is a smart man, but Kevin is just not that smart.

In Kevin's eyes, Edgar is more dangerous than the people of his motherland.

"I...respect our captain very much."

After waiting for a long time, Kevin finally ended with this sentence.

"Respect?"

But Edgar laughed. He no longer told Kevin that he should be the captain. Instead, he tapped his fingers on the table and said in a long tone:

"Okay, let's just leave it at that."

Edgar looked at Kevin carefully, and then seemed to not intend to continue chatting with Kevin. He leaned back and leaned on the back of the chair:

"Okay, that's the end of today's conversation, Shenhai, you can go about your business."

…So why did you come to see me today?

Kevin couldn't understand what the big boss in front of him was thinking, but now that the big boss had issued an eviction order, Kevin couldn't continue to ask.

"Okay, I won't disturb you anymore."

Kevin said, leaving the conference room.
