Chapter 45: Getting the Punisher for Free

From their descriptions, Peter roughly pieced together this weapons dealer called "Shocker". 

He is a bald, white man around forty years old. He sometimes wears a black knit hat and has a full beard. The shock wave-emitting fist glove is worn on his right hand. His face always has an unruly, defiant look.

Using those gangster terms, he seems to be asking for a beating. 

If they didn't need the weapons sold by the other party, they would definitely beat him up a few times to vent their anger.

In addition, Shocker has a companion who is usually only responsible for driving.

Peter guessed that he was probably Shocker's employee or something similar.

Well, should he say it, this is quite in line with Peter's image design of a bad guy. 

A tough man with a mysterious driver, wow, the atmosphere suddenly intensified.

But, there must be thousands if not tens of thousands of people with similar appearances and attire in New York, right?

Only the high-tech gloves that can emit shock waves are more iconic.

Unless the other party is a fool, who would flaunt such a thing in public?

Coincidentally, they really are that stupid.

According to reliable information, these guys from the Hellhound gang were supposed to have a transaction with the other party at 11 o'clock tonight.

According to past practice, the Shocker will definitely come in person. 

Peter was not sure whether what these people said was true or false.

However, he would rather believe it.

So after tying them all up with spider silk, he returned to the roof.

He found that the Punisher's face didn't look good. Apparently, he had suffered some "torture" from Daredevil during the time Peter had just left.

——It should be verbal. After all, Daredevil doesn't seem like the type who would resort to force against people at will.

It's just that sometimes, for some people, verbal or mental torture is far more painful than physical torture.

If the gun was still in the Punisher's hand, Peter believes that he would definitely shoot at Daredevil.

"Did you get what you wanted to ask?" Daredevil has no eyes but can still see and hear in all directions. He discovered Peter as soon as he came up.

Before Peter could speak, the Punisher angrily shouted: "Kid, I won't hold you responsible for tying me up, but you have to let me go now. I'm going to beat the hell out of this guy!" 

Peter scratched his head and stood still.

The Punisher's face suddenly darkened: "You want to go back on your word? Do you want to completely offend me? Then you'd better kill me, otherwise, just wait for my revenge!"

Peter felt embarrassed and turned his head away. 

There were two little spiders fighting in his head now.

One had devil's wings, and the other had angel's wings.

The angel spider said: "You just said that after asking questions, you will let this guy go. Do you want to be a person who breaks their promise?"

The devil spider said: "If you let him go, with his character, he will definitely kill those gangsters. When the clues are broken, how can I catch the Shocker?"

Angel Spider: "Why don't we have a good chat with him, he will understand."

Devil Spider: "No, he is a hard-headed, violent maniac with a poisonous tongue. He also said that I am just a kid who is keen on helping old ladies cross the road every day!" 

Angel Spider: "How about this, let him go first, then capture him again, so that you can complete the promise from earlier and start the next round of 'deals'."

Devil Spider: "That's a good idea, let's do it."

Peter: What a terrible idea, this is obviously a bad plan!

"Your mood has fluctuated several times, which shows that you are very conflicted. Tell me, what happened?" Daredevil said.

This guy's abilities are so buggy.

Although he can't see clearly, he can actually "see" more things than others. 

Peter told all the information he had received.

However, the Punisher was the first to refuse.

"What? You still want them to leave here and trade weapons? No! This is a rare opportunity to catch them all! If you miss today, they can spread out again and endanger more people!" the Punisher said angrily.

Peter persuaded: "But those weapons are the source. If you don't seize the source, there will be Hellhounds now, and there will be Hellhands, Hellheads, Helltails, etc. in the future. Only by solving the source can we completely solve the problem!"

The Punisher said: "To solve the source, we don't have to let these people go and use them as bait. We can definitely find clues in their base! What if they are just deceiving you as a delaying tactic?"

"Uh..." Peter was a little stumped for a moment, as he hadn't thought of that.

At this time, Daredevil said: "I can do you a favor."

Peter turned to look at him.

Daredevil shook the metal stick in his hand, and the stick immediately retracted and turned into a short one. 

He then walked to the edge of the roof and jumped off.

Peter said he was scared.

Who are you? Just jumping down like this from the sixth floor!

He quickly ran to the edge, only to see Daredevil open the stick in his hand, quickly tap the wall around his body several times, and accurately find the landing spot.

After several jumps, he entered the residential building.

After a while, he walked out again, jumped a few more times, and returned to the roof.

That flexible movement didn't look like a blind person at all! 

The top parkour athletes are probably just like this!

"I've confirmed it for you, it's not a lie," Daredevil said in a very calm tone without blushing or being out of breath.

This time, the Punisher was speechless.

Although he and Daredevil have no dealings with each other, he is fully aware of how powerful this guy is.

He is a human lie detector. 

Unless that person has received extremely strict training, able to control their heart rate, breathing and other physical signs to remain constant when lying.

Otherwise, there is nothing to hide from Daredevil.

But if you can achieve that level, you will definitely belong to the elite among the elite, the kind who have experienced multiple and long-term brainwashing. 

You are obviously not one of these gangsters.

Peter beamed: "Well, so..."

"Let me go," the Punisher said expressionlessly.

Peter didn't move.

The Punisher said angrily: "Don't worry, since this guy has said it, then I will reluctantly take a step back. I will go with you, wait until the guy named Shocker appears, and kill them together! Anyway, that one is not a good person either!"

Peter: Although this guy still sounds violent and murderous, does this count as inexplicably gaining an extra fighter?

Mr. Stark shouldn't deduct my military achievements just because of this, right?

Peter was thinking wildly in his mind, but he had already untied the Punisher.
