For the next few days, John remained in Paris.
And when he left, he was no longer alone.
The person with him was Helen!
To be honest,
when John told this story, Luo Di felt a sense of déjà vu, like he was watching a movie.
As expected of the Continental Hotel's legendary assassin, even a romance requires taking down an entire gang.
It was as if without some thrilling, grand spectacle, it wouldn't be worthy of John Wick's love.
"What about you two? How did you meet?"
John finished recounting how he and Helen met, then looked at Luo Di and Wanda, asking them how they met.
"There's something you might have misunderstood; Wanda and I aren't a couple, in fact, we only just met today."
Luo Di took a sip of water, his gaze turning to Wanda, who was still immersed in John and Helen's love story, and said.
John, hearing Luo Di's words, wasn't too surprised.
After all, he, John Wick, knew exactly what kind of person Luo Di was.
This playboy, let alone taking a day, even if he managed to win over a woman in a few minutes, he wouldn't be surprised at all.
Helen, on the other hand, was quite surprised.
She had observed Luo Di and Wanda's expressions and gestures earlier and felt as if they were a pair of young lovers who had just started dating.
She hadn't expected that they had only just met today.
Wasn't this development even faster than hers and John's?
Moreover;
She and John were no longer young, so naturally, they wouldn't have so many twists and turns when it came to romance.
But Luo Di and Wanda both looked very young.
Especially Wanda; Helen even wondered at first if this young girl was an adult.
Although her figure didn't show anything, her face was simply too youthful, making Helen inevitably worry if John's friend was deceiving an underage girl.
The four of them stayed at the restaurant until almost 11 o'clock before leaving.
At the restaurant entrance.
John and Helen got into the car.
"Are you sure you don't need us to drive you back to the hotel?"
John rolled down the car window and asked them.
"No need, we'll walk for a bit, you two should head back quickly."
Luo Di waved his hand and said.
Hearing this, John wasn't worried about them encountering any trouble; after all, John was very familiar with Luo Di's skills.
If they really encountered trouble, John should be more concerned about the safety of the people on the other side, not Luo Di and his companion.
"Alright then, you haven't changed your address, right? Next month, I should be sending you a wedding invitation for Helen and me."
John said.
"Haven't changed, still the old place."
Luo Di smiled and congratulated them, then the four said their goodbyes, and Luo Di and Wanda watched their car drive away before turning and walking in the other direction.
"Do you need me to take you back to Avengers Base?"
Luo Di asked Wanda beside him.
"Hmm, it's getting late, I should go back."
Wanda nodded; it was past 11, and honestly, the others might already be looking for her.
After all, her condition hasn't been very good these past two days, and if they found her missing, the other Avengers would definitely worry if something unexpected had happened to her.
Even if Wanda herself was fine, they were also worried that an emotionally unstable Wanda might hurt someone.
If that happened, it would only make things worse!
"Hold my hand."
Luo Di reached out and took Wanda's hand, saying.
The next second—
The two figures instantly vanished.
A stray cat, rummaging through a nearby trash can, meowed loudly in fright, looking as if it had seen a ghost.
...
Free City, somewhere in the suburbs.
This was a forest road not far from Avengers Base.
Luo Di appeared here with Wanda.
"We've arrived."
Luo Di said.
"Luo Di, are you free tomorrow?"
Wanda released his hand and asked.
"Yes, why?"
Luo Di looked at Wanda.
"Let me treat you to a meal!" Wanda said, "I know a pretty good restaurant nearby. I'll call you then?"
"Sounds good."
Luo Di nodded, not refusing.
"Then I'll head back now 0 ....." Hearing Luo Di agree, Wanda said happily.
"Okay, get some rest!"
Luo Di waved goodbye to her.
At the same time;
Inside Avengers Base not far away.
The Avengers, who had just searched everywhere for Wanda and hadn't found her, now received a message from the Base's AI, stating that Wanda had suddenly appeared on a road near the Base.
And there was another person with her!
The Avengers, relieved to get the news, were also curious about what Wanda had been up to tonight.
And who was the person with her?
"Friday, do you have any photos from the scene?"
Natasha asked at this moment.
As the leader of the Avengers and a member of the original Avengers, Natasha was especially concerned about the two female members of the team.
After all, there were few female members in the Avengers.
Besides her, there were only Wanda and Jessica.
And both of them had their own problems.
This made Natasha have to put more effort into them.
It was normal to be concerned about the identity of the stranger with Wanda now, especially given Wanda's current emotional state; Natasha was worried if she might be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives.
Just then;
A photo appeared on the screen in front of them.
One of the people in the photo was Wanda.
She looked to be in good spirits, with a smile on her face that hadn't been seen in a long time.
And what truly surprised Natasha was the person standing beside Wanda.
It was Luo Di!
The man who had once been labeled as an extremely dangerous target by S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Even after S.H.I.E.L.D. disbanded, Natasha often thought of this man, but because the HYDRA situation was more urgent, Natasha hadn't contacted him again afterwards.
But deep down, she always remembered some of Fury's past evaluations of Luo Di.
While it couldn't be said that Fury's evaluations were always correct.
At least most of the time, his evaluations of a person were accurate!
"It's him!"
Luke Cage and Jessica, who were nearby, also recognized the person in the photo.
"You two know him too?"
Sam asked.
Both nodded, and Luke Cage even said, "He's Spider-Woman's boyfriend, we met him once at a restaurant before."
"This guy's a playboy."
Jessica added.
She remembered seeing Luo Di at the restaurant last time, and he had two young and beautiful girls with him.
She hadn't expected him to be bothering Wanda now!
Unforgivable!
"A playboy? Do I need to go warn him?"
Sam chuckled at the remark, saying.
A mere playboy, he obviously didn't take it seriously.
"No, he's not just a playboy."
Natasha said with a serious expression.
"Does he have some special identity?"
Sam asked curiously.
Even Luke Cage and Jessica looked puzzled.
Apparently, they also didn't know anything about Luo Di.
After all, these were matters that Fury, the former Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., had tasked Natasha with investigating when S.H.I.E.L.D. was still active.
The only people present who knew about Luo Di's situation were Natasha and Steve.
Perhaps Tony also knew something about Luo Di's situation.
But Tony was not present at the moment.
And although Vision could access global network data, some things couldn't be found on the internet.
"This person is very dangerous; Fury had me investigate him before S.H.I.E.L.D. disbanded."
Natasha said.
Perhaps fearing that others wouldn't understand, Natasha then shared some more information about Luo Di.
For example, he once emerged from the Sun, carrying energy that even exceeded the energy produced by the largest nuclear weapon explosion in the World!
And he had displayed abilities like instantaneous movement, immunity to various attacks, and so on.
By the time Natasha finished speaking, Sam and the others also realized the danger of Luo Di.
He was definitely more dangerous than any enemy they had ever faced!
