In the crowded square.
Wilson Fisk stepped onto the makeshift podium in his high-end, custom-made white suit.
He slightly raised his hand to signal the people who came to quiet down.
"We are gathered here today for a pure and simple purpose.
"Here in Hell's Kitchen, we've been through so much.
"For many people, Hell's Kitchen is just a concept of guilt and pain, and they don't understand what we've been through.
"While Tony Stark lives in his mansion and enjoys premium wine that many people can't even afford with their life savings, we may be desperate for a cheap hot dog.
"Here, we don't have enough to eat, we don't have enough clothes, our children can't go to school independently, and drugs and violence are the mainstream of almost every family.
"I'm like you, I've been through what you've been through, and I remember vividly everything I suffered here.
"There is no essential difference between me and you, I am just a little luckier than you, if you can have my luck, you can all do what I do.
"And that's the biggest difference between me and the sanctimonious so-called superheroes.
"Tony Stark will not reveal his armor, but I will share my wealth with you.
"I'm a child of Hell's Kitchen, and now I'm here to pay back."
The audience cheered.
……
On a tall building near the temporary podium.
Frank Cassel held his sniper rifle, staring icily into the scope.
His quasi-heart fixedly stared at Jin Bin's bald head.
"Goodbye, scum." The moment he pulled the trigger, the short stick dropped his gun.
"I didn't expect the devil to appear during the day." Turning around, Frank looked at Daredevil, "I didn't even expect that you would protect such a scum."
"Things are already so bad, I can't just watch you ruin things completely!" Daredevil roared.
"Kill him, and everything is over." The punisher turned around, seemingly relaxed, but his whole body had already entered the tense state of fighting.
"Kill him, and the matter will be completely irreparable!" Daredevil said angrily, "You will ruin all your hard work!"
"Work hard?" Frank laughed loudly. "What you mean by hard work is that you go out every night and beat a group of gangsters into the hospital, and let them rest for a few months to continue doing evil?"
He pointed to the direction of Jin and his speech again: "Or let that disgusting person stand there and pretend to be a saint?"
"This is your justice and fairness?" Frank sneered.
"The process of pursuing justice is bound to be difficult, but the more so, the more you must be firm in your faith." Daredevil said.
"That's why I threw away those things long ago." Frank dismissed.
After saying the last sentence, he didn't explain any more, and pulled out the dagger from his calf and rushed straight at the opponent.
"We could have been friends," said Daredevil, parrying the opponent's slanting stab, taking a step back to distance himself.
"But unfortunately, we are enemies now." Frank rushed forward again.
……
Fisk raised his hand to stop the cheering crowd.
"Only those who have experienced pain can truly understand pain.
"This is what those people who live outside will never understand. They slander me and hate me, but I don't care. I just want to do what I can and what I should do."
A huge new map unfolded behind him.
"As I promised before.
"New Hell's Kitchen, good apartments instead of dirty houses, clean gardens instead of gutters, clean schools instead of dirty places full of violence and drug dealing.
"The future of Hell's Kitchen is not in hell!"
……
On the roof, the two parted panting.
Daredevil wiped the wound on his cheek that was cut open by the opponent, and Frank also squeezed his left hand to return the joint that was just removed by the opponent.
"It's just like in the past." Frank laughed, "But it's a pity that today, one must fall."
"I won't let you ruin everything." Daredevil clenched his short stick tightly.
……
"Jin Bing's performance was even better than we expected." Reporter Mary stood in the audience and recorded the other party's speech with a very professional attitude.
"That must be the case." Faust's voice came from her earphones, "As the emperor of New York's underground, Jin Bin is the most suitable candidate."
"Candidate?" Mary whispered.
"Don't ask if you shouldn't." Faust's voice cooled down. "As an outstanding graduate of the Red House, you should be very clear about these rules."
"Yes." Mary replied, "Sorry, I was a little distracted."
"Focus on your mission, this report on Jin Bin is not an easy task." Faust ordered coldly, "I don't want to hear about your distraction anymore, you need to focus on yourself current job and identity."
"As long as I need it, I can take on any job and identity." Mary's tone was indifferent but confident.
……
Colt was also watching Jin Bin's speech.
"Although there is nothing new, I have to say that even simply repeating his point of view is enough to incite a large number of people who think they are smart to follow him." Colt shook his head, thinking of the big boss and his own Dialogue, human nature, is what it is.
People don't want to see people who are better than themselves, so they are keen to make a person so beautiful that they are not human, and then find out or even fabricate something that they think is reasonable to make this person fall down.
Nothing enthuses mediocrity more than creating an icon and then smashing it.
No matter how smart and powerful a person is, it is impossible to confront humanity head-on.
……
Suddenly, the siren sounded.
Daredevil and Punisher, who were trembling on the roof, were startled.
"You are surrounded!" The policeman downstairs shouted with a loudspeaker.
This commotion also aroused the attention of the crowd not far away.
"This matter is not over." After finishing speaking, the punisher turned around and rushed into the corridor. He had already prepared a way to escape, and it was impossible for the mere police to stop him.
Daredevil made no further attempts to stop him.
He walked slowly to the edge of the eaves and "looked" at the speech in the distance.
On the podium not far away, Fisk seemed to be disturbed by the commotion, and he slowly turned his head.
Daredevil is able to "see" Fisk on the podium.
Fisk narrowed his eyes slightly. To be honest, this distance did not allow him to see his old opponent on the eaves clearly, but this did not prevent him from even smiling at him.
"Now, the devil stands in the sun." He smiled softly to himself.
