Chapter 162: Hell’s Kitchen is Heaven?

Inside the white house, the spacious space was filled with a tense and solemn atmosphere.

America's number one leader sat behind a huge desk, his eyes fixed on the screen in front of him, which showed a picture of the giant mushroom over the Big Apple that had not exploded.

When he saw this scene, his tense nerves finally relaxed and his body slumped in the luxurious office chair, feeling relieved.

This means that he successfully escaped death and not only saved his life but also his political career.

He took a deep breath, his heart filled with gratitude and emotion.

"Quick, check for me! Find out immediately which hero prevented the giant mushroom from detonating!" Leader No. 1 ordered the secretary anxiously.

His voice was filled with emotion and respect, knowing that this hero had not only saved his life, but the entire Big Apple.

"Yes, Chief." The secretary immediately took action and began to investigate the identity of the mysterious hero.

Chief No. 1 turned to the other generals and federal government politicians, his tone full of pride and complacency: "Look, this is our hero! At the critical moment, he alone can change the whole situation.

We should commend him vigorously and let the national media report his deeds!"

"Damn S.H.I.E.L.D., damn Hell's Kitchen, damn that bullshit lord Chen Ye, if it weren't for them how could this have happened, everyone here almost lost their lives!" Leader No. 1 continued to scold.

Leader No. 1 hates the culprits of all this, S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Lord of Hell Chen Ye, very much. If it weren't for their struggle, this incident would never have happened.

The politicians and generals present did not oppose Leader No. 1 this time. It was indeed because of this mysterious hero that they saved their lives.

"I suggest that all the people in S.H.I.E.L.D. be taken out and shot. Even though Nick Fury is dead, it is not enough to calm public opinion!" suggested a federal executive.

"That's right. Our military will give this mysterious hero the rank of general!" said a shrewd general.

Hearing what the military official said, other people who were not in the military secretly cursed in their hearts: "This old fox is so quick to act!"

Everyone present understood that as long as they could recruit this hero, their power would grow infinitely!

The people present were engaged in a heated debate, and everyone was eager to bring this legendary hero into their own sphere of influence.

Their voices blended together into a chaotic symphony.

Some people advocated luring him with honor and status, while others proposed winning him over with money and power. Various proposals emerged one after another.

Just at this moment, the secretary came in hurriedly. His appearance was like a stream of clear water that broke through the chaotic vortex, making everyone stop arguing temporarily.

There was a complicated expression on his face, as if he was trying to find the right words to describe what was coming next.

"Have you found the hero who can stop the giant mushroom? Tell us quickly!" Leader No. 1 urged anxiously, his eyes full of anticipation.

However, the secretary hesitated and did not answer immediately, which made everyone present feel uneasy.

The military personnel began to get impatient, their faces full of anger: "Is there anything that can't be said? Say it quickly! This is a good thing! Why don't you say it!"

"That's right. Could it be that this hero is someone who cannot speak?" A senior federal official echoed, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Could it be Chen Ye, the Lord of Hell?" An executive suddenly made a joke, trying to ease the tense atmosphere in a light-hearted way.

However, when the secretary heard the name "Chen Ye, Lord of Hell", his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had found the words he had been looking for.

"That's right, it's Chen Ye, the Lord of Hell." He said the name firmly, his voice full of certainty.

As soon as these words were spoken, the federal officials looked at each other, their faces filled with surprise and disbelief.

In their eyes, Chen Ye was their enemy. How could he be the hero who saved them?

Leader No. 1 slammed the table angrily and shouted, "I'm warning you, if you joke again, I'll shoot you!"

His voice was filled with anger and unquestionable authority.

However, the secretary did not back down. He gritted his teeth and turned on the TV on his own initiative, risking his life.

The big screen began to play the scene of Chen Ye descending from the sky, and his figure became clearer and clearer in everyone's eyes.

Leader No. 1 and senior federal officials looked at Chen Ye on the big screen, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

They needed time to digest the fact that their enemy Chen Ye was actually their hero and it was he who saved them.

The entire office fell into silence, with only Chen Ye's figure on the big screen constantly enlarging.

Leader No. 1 pondered for a while, then said with a complicated expression: "Let's stop the matter regarding Hell's Kitchen for now. As long as Chen Ye doesn't do anything harmful, just ignore it for now, and withdraw the previous remarks against Hell's Kitchen."

As for the commendation he had mentioned before, Leader No. 1 did not mention it again. After all, he did not expect things to turn out like this.

Chen Ye turned out to be the hero who saved the Big Apple.

Chen Ye really makes Leader No. 1 love and hate him.

The military and federal government didn't say anything else and acquiesced to the decision.

They knew that it was meaningless to try to win over Chen Ye now, as their previous actions had already made Chen Ye deeply hostile to them.

They could only silently hope that Chen Ye would not develop even greater hatred towards them because of this.

Those federal governments that did not target Chen Ye were secretly rejoicing. They decided to take the initiative to contact this hero, hoping to establish friendly relations with him.

Not only the federal high-ranking officials, but all the residents of the Big Apple City also looked at Chen Ye in disbelief.

Every citizen could not look at Chen Ye on the screen calmly.

They were all too familiar with his image. His name and face had been everywhere in the past few days, but all the reports were negative, all about how he had become the evil Lord of Hell.

However, at this moment, he stood in front of the screen, facing them, as if he had become their savior.

This turn of events shocked and confused everyone.

They couldn't imagine that Chen Ye, who was portrayed as the source of evil, was actually their savior at this moment.

"So, it's not the angel who saves us, but Satan?" a citizen asked in a low voice, his voice full of confusion and puzzlement.

"Hell's Kitchen is heaven, and where we are is hell?" another citizen muttered to himself, as if trying to understand this absurd reality.

"Impossible, this is all fake!" Some people screamed. They could not accept this fact. They would rather believe that this was a dream, a nightmare.

"This is definitely a play directed and performed by the Lord of Hell just to make us believe him!" Someone else shouted angrily. They could not accept Chen Ye's whitewashing. They believed that all this was his conspiracy.

And those who had once insulted Hell's Kitchen were now in deep remorse.

They began to reflect on their own words and deeds, and began to understand that the real hell was not Hell's Kitchen, but the prejudice and ignorance in their hearts.

However, amid the chaos and confusion, some people remained calm.

They decided to wait and see what Chen Ye would say.
