Within a week after the Golden Gate Bridge battle ended, the entire United States seemed to become quiet. Without Hydra’s movement, SHIELD was also very quiet. It seemed that everyone forgot that huge and dynamic battle. Although the entire American media has lavishly reported on the destruction of the Golden Gate Bridge, it does not know much about the true situation of the matter. Everyone is still doing what is usual for them.
However, a dark tide can be felt by all forces in the United States where ordinary people cannot detect it. The present quietness is by no means a sign of safety. The present quietness is just like the silence before a storm. Therefore, in such an atmosphere, large organizations and forces in various cities in the United States have temporarily shrunk their paws, for fear of being chopped accidentally.
It was another weekend and the weather was very good, Lin Rui drove out early in the morning. A week has passed and Lin Rui needs to see how Thor is doing. Since Lin Rui feels that the earth will be attacked by cosmic civilization in the future, Thor’s power cannot be ignored.
Huh ~
After stopping his Jeep at the door of the home of stray dogs, Lin Rui got out of the car with his bag on his back. This time Lin Rui came over and brought Thor some food. In order to better take care of the stray dogs, Thor had not returned to the apartment for three days. He now cares about stray dogs and Lin Rui feels that Thor’s sense of responsibility has been fully met.
Pū ~ Bang!
As soon as he entered the door of the home of stray dogs, Lin Rui saw a big man squat on the ground and play with two stray dogs who were physically impaired. Looking at Thor now, who can tell that he is the Crown Prince of Asgard? They would obviously say that he is a big warm man who likes animals.
“Hey! Thor!” Lin Rui shouted from afar and raised the backpack in his hand as Thor turned his head.
“Hey! Jackson!” Happy to see Lin Rui, Thor had come over. Behind Thor, several dogs followed him step by step.
“It seems that they all like you, you should have been pretty good lately.” Lin Rui smiled and touched the head of a puppy near his feet and asked Thor with a smile.
“Well, I get along with them very well. I didn’t even know that there was such a delightful species before. If I returned to Asgard, I would bring at least two of them with me.” Holding a small pug, Thor answered with a smile.
Look at Thor’s current appearance, a guy with long blond hair and a strong and handsome appearance. He still has the perfect muscles and he is currently holding a puppy in his hand, and he still has a smile on his face. If Loki saw Thor at this time, he might feel that his silly brother had been replaced with a different soul, because the current Thor is not the impulsive god he was before.
“That’s good, I brought you something to eat, and I also wanted to talk to you about something.” Lin Rui patted the shoulder bag and said a little more seriously.
“Well, let’s go in the back.” Guessing what Lin Rui wanted to say, Thor returned the pug on the ground and turned and walked back.
Two minutes later, Lin Rui and Thor were already in a utility room behind the stray dog house. No one will come here at this time and this room is perfect for Thor and Lin Rui to say something that they don’t want others to hear.
“Jackson, what’s going on? Has Loki come back to threaten you again?” Thor asked with some concern as he saw Lin Rui looking so serious.
Thor has been working hard to regain his powers since the last time when Lin Rui’s acting made Loki into an evil brother who framed his brother and wanted to banish Thor forever. Two weeks later, Thor’s sense of responsibility and compassion has improved a lot, but he is still far from meeting Odin’s requirements.
Upon hearing Thor’s words, Lin Rui felt a little moved. “No, Loki didn’t for me. However, I came here because of another thing.”
“What’s up?”
“Thor, I need your help, I need the help of Thor.” Lin Rui said seriously as he looked at Thor.
This is the first time Lin Rui has expressed his need for Thor’s power in front of Thor and it is something Lin Rui has been thinking about since the first time he met Thor. Thor without divine power is just a friend to Lin Rui, but what Lin Rui needs right now is Thor with his complete power so he can defend the earth.
After listening to Lin Rui, Thor doesn’t seem surprised at all. Thor is not stupid. When Thor was just exiled in new Mexico, he was knocked out by Lin Rui. The first person he saw when he woke up was Lin Rui again, and Lin Rui was obviously not an ordinary person. Thor had always believed that Lin Rui should have some other identity, such as dealing with aliens on earth.
However, after getting along for so long, Thor overturned his initial judgment. He felt that Lin Rui might really just want to be his friend. However, now that Lin Rui has made it clear that he needs Thor’s power, Thor once again feels that Lin Rui should have a purpose.
“Jackson, I know there is a purpose in you approaching me and becoming my friend. Whatever your status is, whether you are forced by Loki to do something you don’t want to do, I would always regard you as a good friend. However, I have no strength right now, although I can sense the hammer but I can not summon it to me. So I can’t help you for a while.” Thor looked at the young man in front of him and said sincerely. Thor really does treat Lin Rui as a good friend, and he is willing to help Lin Rui, but Thor does not have his powers at this moment and he could not help.
Hearing Thor’s words, Lin Rui suddenly froze as he didn’t expect Thor to say that. Did Thor always know? Did Thor always know that? He knew he had approached him on purpose, but Thor was still willing to help me and treat me as a good friend. At this moment, Lin Rui has some complicated feelings in his mind. Maybe Lin Rui has always done things with a lot of purpose behind them.
In fact, it should not be blamed that Lin Rui initially approached Thor with purpose. After all, this is a Marvel World. Under the circumstances of the story, there are mainline quest and Reward points. Lin Rui will definitely make such a choice, it was just like contacting Tony in the beginning to complete the quest.
After all, unlike Peter and Harry, Thor did not become friends with Lin Rui at the beginning. Lin Rui could not give up his Reward points for a stranger. But now, Lin Rui has already regarded Thor as one of his best friend, otherwise he would not have introduced him to Peter and Harry. Therefore, after seeing Thor’s sincere eyes, Lin Rui suddenly realized that he had always been a little too practical. Sometimes a friend needs to remain a friend and should not be used for anything.
“Thank you, Thor. Don’t worry, you’ll get your powers back and teach Loki a lesson!” After understanding what Thor was thinking, Lin Rui swallowed what he was about to say and looked into Thor’s eyes.
From this moment on, Lin Rui has decided not to think about using Thor to complete any of her plans. Thor is Thor, and he would still be Thor even if he gets back his powers. He is his friend, not an item that he can use at will. Therefore, he would be very grateful if Thor could help him after gaining back his powers and he would not feel sad if Thor was unwilling to help him.
“Well, I have nothing more to do. I’ll sort it out myself.” Finally, Lin Rui reached out and tapped Thor’s solid shoulder, then turned to leave.
“Jackson …” Seeing Lin Rui’s sudden change of attitude, Thor shouted out his name.
“Don’t worry, I can do it! You’d better find a way to pick up that hammer soon. I think you’ll be back to the Asgard soon!” Lin Rui was out of the utility room while waving his hand.

Afterward, Lin Rui left the home of stray dogs with nothing, and Thor remained in the utility room. A few minutes later, Thor walked out of the utility room calmly, still holding a somewhat worn newspaper in his hand, which should have been brought in by someone before.
The first edition of the newspaper in Thor’s hand contained a large picture of the Golden Gate Bridge that had been blown into two sections. And there is a huge title on the first edition: SHIELD shot again, Golden Gate Bridge suffers, facing the unstable factors of the world, we need Superhero.

Hmm I’d prefer Jackson to treat Thor as a friend rather than a tool to help him achieve his goals. Thor’s always been sincere with him since they met
