章 121: The trio
Geralt had used the Axii sign of Lance to make him unconscious. Karen also came out from her home. Matt was sure that this new guy did something to Lance to make him fall unconscious as he could hear his hands moving when Lance fell but he just wasn't sure what it was.
"Who are you?" Matt asked.
"An interested third party. Go home. Take this person to a news channel. You can't trust the police." Geralt replied concisely.
Geralt vanished saying that. Matt wanted to stop him but he was too exhausted and beaten up and from the fall off the window. Karen who saw all this was confused too of what just happened but she knew what the man in silver hair said was right. The police couldn't be trusted.
"Who are you?" Karen asked. Matt didn't reply to that as he didn't want to expose his identity to Karen by speaking. Matt left after taking the unconscious body of Lance to the a local news channel.
The next day the news papers came out with the scandal of union allied. Wesley, the right hand man of Fisk, moved fast to stop spreading any dirty mud on the company. Two days later Karen joined Matt's lawyer firm as an assistant.
They were happy to see that Karen was free from any accusation. Karen had made good food for them and they were talking happily but suddenly Matt stiffened because he had familiar foot steps at the door.
The person who made Lance unconscious at the wave of his hand. Matt wasn't sure why this man came but he had to be on guard as he didn't know if this man was a enemy or an ally.
Geralt knocked at the door. Karen went to the door thinking it was a new client but was surprised to see an acquaintance. "Ummm ...hello." Karen said.
"Can I come in?" Geralt said in a raspy voice. Matt on the other hand was trembling as from the body of Geralt he heard strong but slower heart beats and even the blood flowing through his veins sounded different. "What the hell is wrong with this guy? Is he even human?"
"Come in.. come in.. Matt, Foggy when I was attacked that night this man was there to save me and the guy in mask. I am sorry, I don't know your name." Karen.
"Geralt of Rivia, the butcher of Blaviken. Hello!"
"Why does that name sound so familiar? Anyway hello I am Foggy Nelson. You have a weird way of introducing yourself though. Where is Rivia? In Washington?."Foggy said. "Those contact lens of his looks so weird." he murmured under his breath.
"Hello. I am Matt Murdock. Thank you for saving Karen."
"Not in US Mr. Nelson." Geralt replied.
"Sorry we don't have any good food items to offer you for your help." Karen said. Even though she didn't know how Geralt had helped her before she was happy to see him again and with real identity.
"I am not here for food. I am here to discuss something with Mr. Murdock but at first we need a change of surroundings. Your office isn't going to attract any clients." Geralt said.
"We know but we don't have the funds to remodel it." Foggy said.
"I understand so I will invest some money in the firm to remodel it so that at least there will be clients." Geralt said.
"Huh invest? Really? Are you in some kind of trouble?" Foggy asked.
"It's not me who are in trouble, it's you three who are in trouble." Geralt said while taking an apple from the basket of food.
"What do you mean?" Matt asked as he wasn't sure what Geralt was talking about. He was still apprehensive of Geralt as he wasn't sure what he wanted.
"Do you think your little stint with Union Allied went unnoticed? Or did you think everything is fine after you exposed Union Allied?"
"You mean we didn't catch the real culprit? I knew it. I always felt something was off from beginning." Karen said as he felt sad. They tried their best to expose but the real culprits were still at large.
"What are we going to do about it?" Matt said.
"No. Mr. Murdock, what are you going to do about it? How far the rabbit hole are you going to go to expose Union Allied?" Geralt.
"Me? What do you mean?" Matt said as he felt that Geralt might know his real identity.
"You know exactly what I mean." Geralt said. Matt was sure now that Geralt knew it was him that night but he wasn't sure how he was exposed. He felt scared as now Geralt could easily threaten the lives of Foggy and Karen but he didn't know if he could defeat him.
That stunt of making a person unconscious was still very vivid in his head but he still needed to be on guard.
"What do you mean Mr. Geralt?" Foggy said.
"Your friend here has a huge secret. Ask him. He can answer better than me." Geralt said. Karen and Foggy looked at Matt.
