Chapter 120: Pass
The next morning, the world seemed to be much brighter.
Freeman had his legs broken, stripped and thrown on the street. Last night was the most aggrieved night in his life. After treating his wounds in a private hospital, he almost immediately asked people to investigate the people who attacked him.
He had offended too many people. He thought it would take a long time to investigate before he could get clues, but he didn't expect to get a direction in less than two hours.
Five senior executives of the New York Construction Group were attacked by a group of masked men on the same night. The thugs not only punched and kicked them, but also shot and broke one of their legs in a very unified manner.
With clues to continue the investigation, the records of the recent attack came into the eyes of the five victims.
The New York Construction Group has signed a long-term employment agreement with the black market to assassinate people who want to establish a construction company in New York State.
Not long ago, this agreement that had not been used for a long time ushered in his new target.
This was originally a very common thing, because they have been doing this for decades. The dead people are hidden in the black market, so they are generally not traced to the New York Construction Group. The few people who come to the door have no evidence to prove that it was done by them. Whether it is through underground channels or aboveground channels, they can't do anything to them.
Private revenge has also happened, but it rarely succeeds.
Rich people like to find a large number of security guards to protect themselves. Except for the unlucky guy encountered by Kevin's team, the other four targets have a security team of at least 50 people who closely monitor their whereabouts and provide close protection.
This time it was a premeditated revenge action. According to the victim...
【Those thugs broke into my manor! They used strange weapons to deal with those useless bodyguards. I gave them so much money every year, but those people still came to me and beat me in front of my wife and daughter, and finally shot through my leg! 】
Following this line of investigation, they found out that the manager of the wooden door construction company took the funds for hiring assassins, withheld half of the money, and outsourced it to a small gang in Hell's Kitchen, asking them to intimidate the construction site of the Umbrella Company.
This situation is not surprising. Occasionally, construction teams outside New York are invited to work in New York. The information provided by the manager under questioning showed that he thought it was just an external construction team, and he didn't even know the specific situation of the construction site and took money from the property to do the work.
After a careful search, Freeman learned that the manager's identity was the younger brother of a shareholder's wife...
This is not important. When he finally found the target and asked someone to investigate the Umbrella Company, he only found information as young as a newborn baby.
Just when he had the idea of revenge, the photos of the interior of the construction site taken by a camera in a nearby residential building completely extinguished his anger.
Soldiers lined up in several queues were doing morning exercises, wearing guardian suits, turning off the power of the exoskeleton and running.
The neat queue was particularly eye-catching even in the messy construction site. Hundreds of well-trained soldiers knocked on Freeman's head at once, causing his headache to come back.
When those shareholders were clamoring for revenge, he threw the photo in their faces, and the world became quiet. Everyone became a real free market businessman, advocating peaceful competition.
...
Today is another bright day.
Duncan stood on the balcony. Not long ago, the White Queen found some interesting pictures for him.
Those were some photos of python corpses. The photos were not ordinary pythons, but super giant pythons, with a body diameter of nearly one meter and a body length of dozens of meters!
They were found in Borneo. Many scientists regarded them as a new species, but in the information search of the White Queen, it was found that this giant python had appeared in a book called Anaconda published six years ago.
The author of the book insisted that what he wrote was not true.
Until the giant python was found in Palan Province, Borneo, the book was only circulated as a very novel and interesting autobiographical novel.
The story tells that a company had financial problems. In order to prevent the company from being sold, a group of young people who originally founded the company decided to go to Borneo to find the immortal flower called blood orchid.
The immortal flower is described in the novel as a magical plant containing chemical components that can extend the life of cells, which has immeasurable value.
When Duncan saw the information collected by the White Queen, he felt a sense of familiarity. Before crossing, he had watched a lot of movies about giant monsters and monsters. This plot was familiar to him no matter how he looked at it, and there was also a book called Anaconda, which made it difficult for him not to think too much.
Continuing to investigate based on the author's identity, it happened to be discovered that the author, who was affiliated with a Byron Mitch Biotechnology Company that had been sold seven years ago, had indeed been to Borneo.
It matches, it all matches!
He immediately asked the White Queen to control the leak of the giant python picture, and returned to the Resident Evil world to ask them to get some equipment for the rainforest operation. He also asked the World Development Team to send a few people to find the author of Anaconda and get the map of the Borneo rainforest from her.
It would be better if there was a map, but it didn't matter if there wasn't one. Duncan was very patient.
He could send ten teams to stay in Borneo and let drones search every day until the immortal flower was found.
Even if the flower was not found, it would be fine to catch a few pythons to do experiments. He was not greedy.
Alice walked to Duncan in a bathrobe, handed the glass phone in her hand to Duncan, and said in a slightly surprised tone: "That John Wick didn't come to us. Last night he harvested 46 lives like the god of death."
Take the phone and watch John Wick's smooth killing in the surveillance video. Duncan couldn't help but marvel. John Wick's killing was indeed as light as the god of death swinging his scythe. No bullet missed, he didn't covet a single shot to kill, and he wouldn't deliberately save ammunition.
He is indeed a rare talent, just in terms of mentality and technology.
Enjoying the breeze on the hotel balcony, Alice took a breath and said: "He killed someone in the Continental Hotel. According to the rules they said, John Wick will be removed from the list, and the bounty for the assassination order has been raised to 14 million US dollars."
"It doesn't matter. He is desperate and should come to us." Duncan put it away without paying much attention and turned back to the hotel.
Alice looked at the street for a few more times and turned back to the room.
…
John Wick's behavior was quite bad for the High Table. He killed the new High Table representative in the Continental Hotel.
This was a rebellion of the lower class against the upper class, a provocation that tore the high table's high-handed attitude to pieces.
Their rules had not been broken for a long time. This time the exception shook the entire High Table. They could not believe that such a thing would happen, and extended deep anger.
This angry posture was more like a cowardly appearance. The essence of the High Table was the same as that of the feudal aristocracy. It did not produce anything, but relied on squeezing the lower class to gain wealth. It used rules to exploit the lower killers layer by layer, so that they could never jump out of the cage of rules.
John Wick was like a dog they locked in a fence. One day, he suddenly bit them and gave a bad example to the other dogs in the fence.
If they did not handle this matter properly, more and more people would show their teeth to the High Table in the future!
