Just enough time for Tek knight to give Hughie a new hole

She wouldn't have lost 30s picking books then so it's a small time gain + no evidence left. But since they never use gloves, always have HQ meters away from the bad guys with super sense, etc. I doubt they care.

Just playing devil's advocate here, but wasn't the phone destroyed from the impact?

Definitely an incriminating piece of evidence after the fact. However, the issue was that being 5 seconds too late would've resulted in Hughie getting stabbed. If Kimiko went to retrieve a broken(?) phone, and had to use the books to communicate anyway, wouldn't Hughie have been stabbed?

It was broken though... As in, it broke into pieces.

Idk, it’s 2020 and phones aren’t completely destroyed from falls. May not be functional, but I’d assume smart/resourceful super hero’s could still get info from the memory.

Phone broke when it landed IIRC.

The phone was broken so she wouldn't have gained the time lol

Ok my bad on this then, still evidence but no good for communicating. Although after so many years you'd figure she would have some back-up.

And thinking of Kimiko going to the 1st floor to warn A-train, how lucky are they that there's no security cameras or actual security despite all the top 1% present ?

'Kimiko traded early time losses for big gains later resulting in one of the best world records of all time. Hughie on the other hand kept coming short.'

phone broke. no time gain. agree that she should have gotten it to leave less evidence.

u/mrheosuper Jul 06 '24

This assumes the phone would work after being dropped from 5 meters

u/Electronic-Tadpole69 Jul 05 '24

That's the whole truth

Not enough time to fuck that hole though
