A Shot for You

Thinking about this, she vaguely understood what was going on.

Lin Mo reached out and took the medicine from the A-Train, glanced at it to make sure there were no problems, and then looked back at Madelyn behind the desk.

Since this woman likes to use Compound V to arrange things for others...

Now, we can also give her an injection to make her feel good.

Madelyn sat there, looking at what Lin Mo was holding.

Her expression finally changed noticeably; just moments ago, she could still tell herself that there was room for explanation.

It seems that Lin Mo's willingness to listen to her means that they haven't completely reached the final step yet.

But now, the A-Train suddenly went out and then suddenly came back with this thing.

It clearly didn't seem like they were trying to cooperate with her and continue discussing any collaboration.

Her hand, resting on the edge of the table, unconsciously tightened a little.

run?

The thought didn't even linger in her mind for long.

Run my ass.

Look at the opposing team's lineup; A-Train is standing right there, the one who's known as the fastest runner in the world.

She went out to get something and when she came back, she hadn't even had time to think through what she was going to say.

Not to mention Lin Mo and Joanna were nearby; even if she stood up now and rushed towards the door...

How far can it rush out?

So Madelyn didn't move, she just looked at the potion, then at Lin Mo, and the unease she had been forcibly suppressing in her heart turned into fear that could no longer be concealed.

Of course she knew what it was.

After all, this was the very thing that was handed over to the A-Train so he could send abroad.

Compound V.

But this time, it seems to be prepared for her.

Indeed, she was right; this Compound V was prepared for her.

Lin Mo looked at the expression on Madelyn's face and gently shook the potion in his hand.

Then a figure flashed by.

By the time Madelyn realized what was happening, he was already standing next to the desk.

They were only half a body length away from her, so close that she instinctively shrank back, causing her chair to slide back slightly.

The A-Train's eyelids twitched as it watched this scene.

He hadn't seen Lin Mo move at all just now.

After using the Original Compound V, I initially thought that the speed improvement was quite significant.

In retrospect, it seems that it's better not to overthink some things.

Annie, standing outside the door, was also taken aback for a moment.

She was just looking at Lin Mo, standing next to the A-Train.

In the blink of an eye, the person was gone.

Isn't this speed a bit too fast?

Lin Mo didn't care about the others' reactions; he simply handed the medicine in his hand to Madelyn.

I'll give you a chance.

Madelyn looked at him, then at the blue potion, and her lips moved slightly.

"Lin Mo, I..."

"Don't you like having the A-Train transport Compound V out?"

Lin Mo said with a smile.

"They even said it was for our own good."

"Then why don't you give it a try? Maybe you can become a Supe too."

If this had been said at another time, Madelyn might have seriously considered it.

But now, all she felt was a chill creeping down her back.

Ordinary Compound V, for adults.

What does it mean to put these two things together?

Of course she knew.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have needed to arrange things in such a faraway place.

Lin Mo looked at her hand, which she hadn't yet extended, but the smile on his face didn't change much.

"How?"

"Unwilling?"

He paused briefly before continuing, "Then we'll have to find another way."

The words had barely left his mouth.

A faint red light slowly appeared in his eyes. It wasn't dazzling, but it made Madelyn's breath catch in her throat, and even the temperature in the vicinity seemed to rise.

She could even feel the heat on her face.

Now, all explanations, Military cooperation, and the prepared statements are gone.

Everything's gone.

Her mind was now filled with only one thought: she really hoped that this thing wouldn't be shot directly at her.

I accept.

Madelyn quickly spoke up.

I accept.

She reached out her hand, intending to take the medicine.

Because my hands were shaking so badly, I couldn't even hold it steady on my first try.

Lin Mo wasn't in a hurry; he just watched her.

The red light in her eyes only slowly faded after she finally caught the item.

The A-Train behind couldn't help but swallow hard.

To be honest, it had been quite a long time since he had seen Lin Mo like this.

When talking to them, Lin Mo is usually quite easy to get along with, and sometimes he even cracks a few jokes with them.

But now, looking at Madelyn sitting in the chair, she could barely control her hands.

The A-Train suddenly realized that the phrase "easy to get along with" seems to depend on the situation.

Maeve remained silent, just as Madelyn had been using the other heroes' dirty deeds to justify herself.

She was indeed so angry that she wanted to hit him.

But looking at Lin Mo's current state, she felt that she didn't need to rush into taking action.

Annie, standing outside the corridor door, peeked inside furtively, feeling a little nervous herself.

The Lin Mo she had met before was basically the one from the news, the Superman who greeted ordinary people with a smile.

This is the first time I've seen it like this.

That's a little scary.

But for some reason, she felt that Lin Mo seemed even more handsome.

Especially considering that this woman in front of him was actually planning to secretly create a super terrorist.

Annie felt a slight nervousness, which quickly turned into another emotion.

Sure enough, this is the kind of person I encounter.

Even heroes get angry.

Joanna's reaction was even more direct.

She looked at Lin Mo, her eyes almost shining.

Um.

That's more like it.

Some people, if you just talk to them nicely and too much, they'll think they can do anything.

Madelyn had no interest in noticing other people's expressions.

She lowered her head, looking at the medicine in her hand, and after a long while, she took a deep breath.

In this situation, she doesn't have many options left.

injection.

At least there's still a chance they can pull through.

Without the injection, she really didn't want to know if Lin Mo would give her a chance to speak the next time his eyes lit up.

And so, under the watchful eyes of several people...

With trembling hands, Madelyn finally injected the No. Compound V into her body.

The blue liquid gradually disappeared.

She put her things down, before she could say anything more to Lin Mo.

Suddenly, a strange feeling came from inside my body.

A feeling of heat began to surge through my entire body.

Immediately afterwards, the heat turned into pain.

Madelyn suddenly bent over, gripping the edge of the desk tightly with one hand.

The breathing that had been barely maintained immediately became erratic.

"Ah..."

She wanted to speak.

But when he opened his mouth, all that came out was an uncontrollable cry of pain.

His entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Lin Mo glanced at them, then consciously took a few steps back and stood in front of Joanna and the others again.

It doesn't mean anything else, but mainly I'm wondering what kind of reaction adults will experience after using the Ordinary Compound V product.

Sometimes it's really hard to say.

What if this woman suddenly can't hold on and just explodes right here and now?

Just like when the Translucent died in the original story, that scene was so emotionally draining.

With him standing in front, it would be convenient for him to run away and block the way if anything happened.

Maeve glanced at Madelyn, then at Lin Mo.

Then, lowering his voice, he asked a question.

Do you think she can pull through?

This question doesn't imply any concern for Madelyn.

She still remembered what that woman had just said, how self-righteously she was giving orders to others.

I hadn't really considered whether ordinary people could handle it. Now that it's my turn, I'm experiencing it for myself.

Lin Mo listened and glanced at her sideways.

"Who said that just because she pulled through, she'd survive?"
