A few days later, the weather in Metropolis was clear, with not a cloud in the sky.
The Metropolis Police Department soon received an emergency call. A bank in Manhattan had been robbed, and the robbers were all wearing armor and were incredibly powerful.
The police department didn't dare take the matter lightly and dispatched SWAT.
The robbers were incredibly brazen. They didn't flee—instead, they waited for SWAT to arrive.
Director Larry called out to them, "Robbers inside, you're surrounded! Drop your weapons and surrender at once!"
"Haha, you finally showed up!"
Bruno Mannheim of the International Gang emerged from inside, but his appearance startled the SWAT officers.
Bruno Mannheim was wearing dark green armor, making him look as if he were living inside an iron shell.
It went without saying that the armor had to be incredibly powerful.
Director Larry immediately asked, "What is that thing?"
"Equipment provided by LexCorp. I'd guess they're connected to the International Gang."
His female secretary answered at once.
"LexCorp? Damn it!"
Director Larry was immediately at a loss.
LexCorp provided the Metropolis Police Department with a lot of things every year, whether police cars or weapons and equipment.
All kinds of subsidies made it difficult for them to take action against LexCorp.
The so-called "you're in me and I'm in you"—that was where things went wrong.
A very American problem.
"Director, they're coming out!"
While the SWAT officers were still hesitating, the International Gang had already attacked them.
Boom!
Their armor was equipped with high-tech weapons. One shot sent a police car flying.
Director Larry jumped in fright and could hold back no longer.
He couldn't worry about LexCorp now.
"Open fire!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At the order, the officers didn't hesitate. They pulled their triggers immediately.
But the bullets bounced right off
