"What are you doing? These are important witnesses! They're also connected to the attack on me last time! Why did you shoot them?!"
Tony, wearing his Iron Man suit, glared furiously at the group of NYPD officers surrounding him.
At that moment, both the zombie embedded in the car and the attacker who had initially survived were lying dead beneath the officers' gunfire.
Four police cars and more than a dozen officers stood facing Iron Man, looking somewhat nervous.
The supervisor among them stepped forward and spread his hands as he explained,
"Mr. Stark, everything we did was reasonable and within regulations. They posed a threat to us, so we were justified in opening fire."
Tony's expression beneath the Iron Man helmet grew grave.
It would have been reasonable to shoot the zombie if it posed a threat, but the gunman had already surrendered and was still gunned down. There was definitely something wrong here.
Just then, J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice sounded in Tony's ear again.
"Sir, when I notified them earlier, I said that the other party had attacked with a firearm. Their rules for opening fire on armed criminals are quite permissive. As long as they can't see the person's hands, they're allowed to shoot."
"But this is clearly abnormal."
"There's nothing we can do about it..."
Tony glanced at the zombie blood smeared across his suit, then nodded. He turned to Tao Yu and the others and said,
"My lawyer will get you out on bail soon. Don't get into a fight with them."
"Sorry for the trouble."
Now that he'd shown his face, Tao Yu didn't want to switch identities again. It was fine to go through the process this way. He was an illegal immigrant, but with a lawyer arranged by Tony, it shouldn't be much of
