The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

"I love New York right now."

In an open-air bar on the banks of the Hudson River, Lake, who looked like a black king, took a sip of the bourbon in his hand, crossed his legs, and looked at Winston, who arrived here on time fifteen minutes later, and smiled. "What about you, Winston?"

Winston ordered a glass of whiskey from a waiter next to him, and then looked at Lake: "The air is indeed much better than before."

Lake laughed haha, then looked at the short-haired woman sitting next to her, and raised her eyebrows: "You are..."

Winston introduced next to him: "The judge this time, Mike De Anthony, a member of the Twelve Board of Directors, died."

Lake snorted.

The High Table consists of only four people, or in other words, four organizations.

but……

Under these four tables, there is also a round table seat for 12 people. These 12 seats are similar to the management, responsible for maintaining and maintaining the operation of the Continental Hotel today.

The most famous branch of the Italian mafia, the Anthony family, is a member of the twelve-member management.

When the judge just saw Lake's face, he immediately understood that what Winston said earlier was true. There was no doubt that the black king must be a high table, and it was also the highest table.

After all, if it wasn't for the sudden discovery that the Four High Tables also have the Immortal Consortium, frankly speaking, the current Continental Hotel might have disappeared.

but.

The short-haired female judge hesitated for a moment, but still looked at Lake: "Your Majesty the Black King, are you here for John Wick?"

Lake looked at the judge with a calm expression, and sipped his glass of wine: "I'm here to visit my friend in New York. By the way, I'll make an appointment with my guide for a drink."

The judge looked at Winston: "A guide?"

Winston, with his glasses on, smiled slightly.

Lake laughed and said, "I was a freelance killer in my early years. Who do you think recommended me to the Continental Hotel?"

The judge looked at Winston again instantly, as if to say, why didn't you tell me this information when I came over yesterday.

Winston's expression remained unchanged.

This matter was between him and the Black King. Winston just felt that he had done a small favor back then. After all, when Lake entered the Continental Hotel, he could also help him clean up some business. Winston never thought that What an amazing thing.

nature.

Winston will not talk about this matter, after all, he has passed the age of youth, frivolity, and outspokenness. Winston knows well that the black king's nostalgia is a thing, but he It cannot be considered as a kindness.

The judge took a deep breath and looked at Lake: "Then, His Majesty the Black King..."

Lake directly interrupted: "You go first, I will not interfere with this matter now, do what you should do, and when I want to intervene, I will not blame you."

The judge nodded: "I understand, Your Majesty."

finished.

The judge got up and left the place without stopping.

Winston watched the back of the judge leaving, and said with a laugh: "When she came here yesterday, she was going to take over my hotel."

Lake and Winston clinked glasses: "My friend, you built the Continental Hotel in New York alone. Believe me, no one can take it away from you."

He will not allow such a thing to happen.

When Lake launched the [washing away the stains] offensive against New York City, the Continental Hotel helped a lot secretly. There were several zero-dollar purchases that the little blacks planned to organize. Stone paid for it privately and put it on the reward list.

Of course.

Winston did this mainly because he felt that he could kill two birds with one stone. First, the Black King had a close relationship with Lake, who is now the Department of Homeland Security, and they reciprocated. Second, Winston planned to use this opportunity to create more Some reward lists, I think it can give some novice assassins a chance to practice.

This is a very good opportunity to join hands, and even the cleaning team does not need to be dispatched.

Since Lake secretly instructed to launch the [Washing Stains] plan, the number of black people in New York City has decreased at a diving speed. As for the bodies of some black people, after seeing the skin color in the New York Police Department, let’s put it this way, the New York Police Department In the archives of the bureau, there are not one or two unsolved cases that have no chance to be solved.

As for the black people who already exist in the NYPD and other law enforcement agencies?

Check it out.

If there is no problem, let it go, if there is a problem, just wash it off.

What a big deal.

Anyway, the briefing meeting of the United Earth Federation is coming soon. Besides, Lake just doesn't like black. As for other colors, even if they are of mixed blood, Lake doesn't care.

Mexican, Lake thinks it is better than the little blacks.

At the very least, the Mexicans don't eat welfare for nothing, they will do it themselves to have enough food and clothing.

Lake put the wine glass in his hand aside, talked about business, and looked at Winston: "What happened?"

This is not knowingly asking.

The ghost knows how the plot in reality is staged. Most of the movie plots that Lake remembers, but the plot of the movie can only be said that the general direction has not changed, but other things, such as details, still have discrepancies.

Winston said: "John shot Anthony inside the Continental Hotel, triggering the expulsion button of the Continental Hotel. In the early hours of this morning, the High Table offered a reward of 14 million to John Wick."

Lake said with a smile: "This is the iron law that the Continental Hotel has set down from the very beginning. Among the Continental Hotels, it is an iron law of absolute safety."

Although rules are meant to be broken.

But for most people, when the rules are established, they are still allowed to abide by them, and only a small number of people can break the rules.

Like Lake.

What Lake seeks is a clear mind. After killing someone at the Continental Hotel, he was already ready to let the Continental Hotel be ashamed.

What about John Wick?

Lake thought about the original movie plot, it seems that John Wick thought of a way to find a high table in the Egyptian desert to see if there was a way to reconcile.

From this point of view, there is no doubt that Lake's structure is once again much higher than that of John Wick.

"Where is John now?"

"do not know."

"……Ok."

Lake touched his chin and nodded truthfully.

Winston immediately looked at Lake: "However, when I met John for the last time in Central Park yesterday, he tried to ask me where the Immortal Castle is located."

Lake looked up at Winston: "Immortal Castle?"

Winston nodded.

"interesting."

Lake played with the wine glass in his hand: "What did you say?"

"I do not know."

"..."

Winston looked at Lake's expression looking up, and said: "No one knows the real location of the Immortal Castle, just like people only know that the real headquarters of the Immortal Consortium is in Hungary, not the one in Paris. I tried to ask John why To inquire about the whereabouts of the Immortal Castle, John didn't say anything."

Lake touched his chin.

He probably knows why.

Could it be that John Wick intends to use his relationship to find the Black King who is now the High Table, or is he trying to contact Lake through the Black King?

It's all possible.

The fact that the Black King became the high table was a sensation at the time. After all, all the killers were waiting eagerly for the Continental Hotel to send the order to expel the Black King.

It turned out that what they were waiting for was the news that the Black King had become the Judge of the High Table.

Although John Wick had retired at that time, John Wick's news network was still there, so it was impossible not to know about it.

so……

Lake pointed his fingers at the table.

at this time.

Feeling the vibrating phone, Lake came back to his senses, made a gesture to Winston who was opposite, took out the phone, looked at the incoming call, and connected it: "Speak."

Tiffany's voice came out of the microphone, "Boss, at 1:23 in the morning, an ATM located opposite a building named [A Tale of Two Wolves] captured John Wick entering the building picture of things."

"it is good."

Lake hung up the phone, touched his chin, and looked at Winston: "The rules of the Continental Hotel cannot be broken. This is the iron law. Go back and tell the judge that I will deal with the aftermath of this matter and let her leave from New York. New York There can be killers, but if you can't control them, then you are not allowed to come over."

Winston nodded: "I understand, don't worry."

After Lake finished speaking, he laughed: "The last time I drank, who invited whom."

"I."

"Okay, this time I invite you."

Lake smiled, took out two Franklin cards from his bosom, pressed them down on the wine glass, got up, hugged Winston, smiled and said: "Old guy, if you feel that the world is boring, prepare for your funeral early, I will take you Go play better."

finished.

Lake patted Winston on the back, said to take care, then turned and left directly wearing sunglasses.

Winston watched the scene where Lake stopped a taxi and left, and shook his head, feeling... a little turbulent in his heart.

no doubt.

Winston would not think that what Lake said when he just left was cursing him. On the contrary, Winston felt that this was an invitation and even more a blessing.

but……

Winston sighed. Although he really wanted to go there right away, he hadn't enjoyed enough of this colorful world, green and red dust.

but.

Sigh to sigh, Winston is still very happy to receive such a blessing and invitation, moreover, the invitation that Lake just gave Winston has no time limit.

As for John?

Winston actually knew the coordinates of the Immortal Castle.

but……

It was one thing for him to know, but another to tell others.

so.
