Chapter 166 Love
As the saying goes, when a person leaves, the tea gets cold.
Silvio used to have many good players.
People like Tombstone and Hammerhead all worked for him.
But times have changed. After so many years, Tombstone and others have already had their own careers and have become leaders who stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
In terms of strength and territory, they are still better than this old guy.
If he is willing to lower his posture and ask, Tombstone and others may not mind helping him a little, as a way to repay the past friendship.
But it is basically impossible to expect that he can make Tombstone and others deal with Kingpin with just one word, so it is better not to embarrass himself.
"Damn it!"
Silvio cursed in his heart.
If he had no one under his command, he would not let Red Hood go back on his word.
But now, he can only bleed heavily.
"Okay, I promise you, 20 million is fine."
After weighing the pros and cons, Silvio gritted his teeth and agreed to the other party's conditions.
However, he could not let the Red Hood go on recklessly. His face became gloomy, and he looked straight into the guy's eyes and warned coldly:
"This is the last time. If you dare to speak nonsense again, I will never let it go."
"Don't worry, I value my promises the most."
The Red Hood smiled. He also knew that this was Silvio's bottom line, so he would not go too far.
Next, the two discussed the subsequent plans and rehearsed the action plan on the map.
This is a time-consuming and laborious job, but neither of them complained.
Because they all understand that the more adequate the preliminary preparations, the easier it is to succeed in the action.
In any case, it is always good to make more plans.
When the Red Hood left the room, it was completely dark.
Almost at the same time, another person entered the office.
Coincidentally, this guy's outfit is similar to the Red Hood, both of which are a combination of special warfare uniforms and cloaks.
It's just that one is more red and the other is more black.
Seeing Silvio sitting in the dark, the man in black cloak took off his mask and asked:
"Is he gone, father?"
Yes, this man in black cloak is Silvio's son, whose real name is Joseph Manfredi.
Looking at his eyebrows and eyes under the mask, he is very similar to Silvio.
It can be said that the two are almost carved from the same mold.
The only difference is that Joseph is younger than Silvio, his face does not have as many wrinkles as the latter, and his hair has not become so white.
The whole person looks young and energetic, with a gleam in his eyes, revealing endless aspirations and ambitions.
And this is what Silvio, as a father, is most proud of.
After he was imprisoned, his son did not become decadent, but tried to cheer up. While trying to reduce his sentence, he joined a criminal organization called Crime Circus and had a group of teammates with extraordinary abilities.
Before the start of this operation, Joseph took the initiative to volunteer, believing that with the strength of Crime Circus, Kingpin could definitely be killed successfully.
But Silvio didn't think so.
King was not an ordinary enemy, but a very terrible opponent, and it was definitely not that easy to deal with.
Instead of directly engaging in a decisive battle with King, it would be better to find an outsider to test the waters first. If it succeeds, it would naturally be the best;
If anything unexpected really happens, it will be the outsider who suffers the loss, and it has nothing to do with them.
As for the reward of 20 million US dollars, although Silvio felt painful, he didn't have too much entanglement.
As long as he could kill King, he could get everything from the other party and get a steady stream of wealth.
After comparing it this way, he naturally made the most correct choice.
However, having said that, Red Hood's behavior of raising the price still made him particularly unhappy, and he immediately ordered his son:
"When this matter is over, you go and kill Red Hood!"
"Understood, father!"
Joseph accepted the order happily.
...
While Silvio and his son were studying how to deal with Red Hood and King, King, who had learned the news, had already fallen into a rage.
"Waste, all good-for-nothings! They can't even protect one person!"
The news of Vanessa's kidnapping made Kingpin furious as never before.
But he didn't flare up, instead he suppressed his anger, lit a cigar and held it in his mouth, thinking about how to solve this matter.
At this time, his assistant James Wesley walked in.
"You came just in time, James, tell me, which guy who had eaten a bear heart and a leopard's courage dared to attack my woman?"
"The situation is very bad, boss."
Looking at the information obtained from the investigation, James's face was a little ugly.
"It's the leader of the Maggia Gang, Silvio Manfredi."
"It turned out to be that old guy."
No mistake, one post, one content, one book, one bar!
Kingpin suddenly realized.
He almost forgot the name Silvio.
Silvio regarded him as his lifelong enemy, but Kingpin never regarded him as a real threat.
In Jin Bing's view, the other party was just an old man who was out of date and insignificant. Even if he could get out of prison, he would not live for more than a few years.
But it was precisely because of his contempt that what happened today happened, and Vanessa was kidnapped by Silvio.
"Damn old guy!"
Now that he knows the identity of the enemy, Jin Bing will certainly retaliate.
Just by looking at James's hesitation, he knows that this subordinate still has something to say.
"Tell me, who else is involved?"
It's the same if you drive one sheep or two sheep.
Having decided to take action, he might as well solve it once and for all without leaving any trouble.
Moreover, he doesn't think James needs to hesitate so much.
He has been in the arena for so many years, and he has provoked many enemies.
No matter who attacks him this time, he has certain psychological expectations.
He thought so, but when Jin Bing heard the next few names, his face immediately sank.
"In addition to Silvio mentioned before, there are also Louis, Lynch, Pete..."
James was cautious.
Because these names represent none other than the leaders under Jin Bing.
In fact, it's no wonder that those leaders would betray.
It's really Jin Bing who doesn't act like a human being.
Jin Bing retired, but he insisted on transferring the documents to the federal law firm before retiring.
And the documents contain conclusive evidence of crimes committed by high-level officials.
It is conceivable that once Jin Bing really does that, the leaders of the entire gang will face jail.
From Jin Bing's perspective, there is nothing wrong with him doing this, just to make himself live a peaceful life.
But from the perspective of those subordinates, Jin Bing's doing this is a bit too bullying.
Isn't it just for his own happiness that everyone is sent to death?
However, things have come to this point today, and it is meaningless to entangle who is right and who is wrong.
The key is what to do next.
In the office, James carefully observed Jin Bing's face.
He thought Jin Bing would be furious because of this, but the expected scene did not happen.
Jin did not lose his temper, but just had a gloomy face, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said coldly:
"For my beloved Vanessa, I once swore not to kill again. But now that they have provoked me, I have to betray my oath, go back to my old business, and kill again. And all this is also out of love."
