Chapter 207: Trouble in the Neighbourhood
Gwen took a bun and kneaded it in her hand as she summed up the thoughts in her head.
They must be in trouble, if it was a normal move, Luke would definitely tell me where they were moving to and Uncle John would talk to you.
Good, what else?
Gwen cocked her head and said, It just feels so sudden, theres no sign of it.
After a pause, she looked expectantly at Mike and said, How about that? Did I get it right?
Mike laughed and said, Sort of.
Great!
Gwen cheered, looked at Mike expectantly and said, Then can Daddy help them?
She thought her father was great.
Her brother, Charles was the principal of the mutant school and had powerful superpowers.
A billionaire, genius scientist who is often on TV, calls his father an uncle.
In addition to all this, her dad was the hero who saved her and brought that criminal down, and she never saw Mike in trouble at all.
In her young heart, Mike had long been an all-powerful hero.
So she felt that her father could help both John father and son.
She looked at Mike, saw Mike did not answer, emotions flew down, but showed a bright smile and said: If Dad is embarrassed
Mike smiled and nodded Gwens head, saying, Dont worry, Ill help them.
Oh! Gwen cheered, Daddy, youre wonderful!
Embarrassed, impossible.
This little thing is not even considered the category of difficult.
John and his son are their good neighbors. The relationship between the two families is good. Helping them solve their problems can only be regarded as a simple task for Mike, but before helping, you must first figure out what problems they are having.
Go on. Go find Luke after breakfast and ask him.
Gwen opened her mouth wide, stuffed half a bun into her mouth with a rush, let her mouth bar bulge, chewed hard twice, filled two big mouthfuls of porridge, let out a long breath, and ran towards the door, Im going now!
Hey! Mike called out to Gwen and said, Do you know what youre going to do?
Im going to ask Luke what kind of trouble theyre having at home.
Go ahead!
Mike waved his hand and gave a smile.
Gwen rushed to the neighbours house and rang toward the doorbell.
The doorbell rang for a long time, and just when Gwen thought Luke and his father werent home, the door was pushed open.
Uncle John.
Gwen looked at the man who opened the door and gave a smile, then looked at the mans face in surprise and said, What happened to your face?
Nothing. John showed a smile and said with some embarrassment, I got drunk two days ago and then fell down.
Is something wrong? Gwen?
Gwen looked inside, feeling a little strange, and spoke, Wheres Luke? Can I play with him?
John stroked Gwens head, his eyes full of tenderness, and said, Hes gone to his grandparents house, Ill take him to you guys when he comes back.
Oh!
Gwen was a little lost: Then Im going home, uncle.
She waved her hand and ran toward home as John watched.
Looking across the street at his neighbour, John sighed.
Such a good neighbour, I dont know if I will have the chance to meet in the future.
But no matter what, he couldnt wait.
He had to get his wife out from prison as soon as possible.
He tried. For the past two years, he had tried hard to find evidence to disprove his wifes murder charge, but without success.
He was falling apart, but what was falling apart faster than he was, was his wife who was in prison.
Not long ago, his wife tried to commit suicide, but luckily she was found in time and was taken to the hospital.
But he knew his wife well, and with the first suicide, there would be a second, so he could only save her from prison if he didnt want her to die, even if it was through criminal means.
So he started making plans to escape from prison, learning everything he could to help.
But the unexpected is always one step ahead of the plan.
He was informed that his wife would be transferred to prison in three days.
This completely disrupted his plans, but it was all that could be done ahead of time.
Today was the first day, and in two days, his wife would be transferred, so there was even less hope then.
He closed the door, went back to his bedroom, looked at the maps and information he had taped to the wall, and began to simulate the whole plan over and over in his head.
Meanwhile, Mike, who was at home, swept a glance at what was on Johns wall and then withdrew his gaze.
He could see just as well what John was trying to do.
A prison break-in.
He was planning to save his wife.
What kind of situation would make a nice gentleman make such a choice?
Mike cupped his chin in a pensive manner and, as Gwen came home to him, flashed a smile at Gwen and said, Howd it go?
Luke is not at home, went to his grandfathers house, what to do?
Gwen was a little worried and said, They must be in trouble, Uncle Johns face is still bruised.
I know.
Mike stroked Gwens head and said, Dont worry, your friend and Uncle John will be fine.
Dad, what are you going to do?
Gwen said expectantly, Will you use your fists and beat the bad guys down hard?
With that, she waved her fist twice.
Reaching out and flicking Gwens head, Mike laughed, You dont want to learn to fight and become a wild little girl.
No way! Hee hee!
Gwen looked like a good girl and suddenly exclaimed, Yah, I forgot, I have fighting class today.
All morning, she did her best to worry about Lukes family, and the class was left behind, but now that her dad had promised to help, she was relieved that the class, after Mikes reminder, finally came to mind.
Mike got up and said, Come on.
Ill go get my stuff!
Gwen rushed upstairs like a gust of wind.
Looking at Gwens back, Mike remembered something very important.
Gwen had only met Charles and knew that Charles had superpowers, but did not know that he also had them, nor did she know that her other two brothers, whom she had not yet met, also had them.
If Gwen saw it, what would be the expression?
Mike thought about it and couldnt help but laugh.
A few moments later, Gwen ran down with her own protective gear and said, Come on.
Without waiting for Mike to agree, she rushed out of the room.
This girl, why is she crazy?
Looking at Gwen dotingly, Mike put on his jacket and chased after her. By the time he walked out of the room, Gwen was already standing in front of his car stamping her feet anxiously.
Dad, hurry up!
Gwen jumped into the car like a bunny as the door opened.
Mike got in and drove while saying, Are you guys going to start fighting practice today?
Yeah!
Then how about Daddy seeing?
Good!
