American comics: From the old Uncle Wolf, he becomes omniscient and omnipotent

Chapter 26 025: The Consequences of Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf
Compared to the sunny Santa Fe a few days ago, Rojo returned this morning and saw something different.

Today's Santa Fe is still cloudless, and the weather in Texas is still warm, but the deep sky in the northern part of the city always makes people feel like there is a layer of oppressive haze.

Especially after entering the territory of the Sherman family, you can always see uniformly dressed people on the streets, holding something in their clothes. Even police patrol cars, which are rarely seen in normal times, can now be seen everywhere.

"It seems that the situation this time is more serious than before. Mr. Sherman is determined to fight with the Greer family to the end."

In the truck, Jeleel looked at the scene outside and was a little surprised. In fact, in the five years since he joined, there had been no major conflicts between the two families. Most of them were minor frictions and they would not go to war. Looking at it now The situation is more serious than in previous years combined.

"When it comes to big shots, we can just be silent spectators."

In the passenger seat, Rojo looked contented while drinking a soda.

"It's not easy to be a big shot here."

Jerell drove the truck into the alley, got out of the car, took his wallet and said, "I'm going to buy a few cases of wine. You wait in the car for a while."

"You drunkard, go and come back quickly."

Rojo is accustomed to Jeril buying alcohol. Apart from transporting goods, this guy also drinks alcohol. Compared with the previous Oudorf, he is no less generous. "I have a fight with a drunkard."

After Jeleel walked away and entered Yijia Supermarket.

Rojo took advantage of the few people around, got out of the car, opened the door of the truck, and leaned into the dark and slightly hot compartment, "Lorna?"

"I'm here. If you don't open the door, I'm going to faint from the heat."

Lorna Dane was covered in sweat and couldn't wait to open the door and jump out.

"Sorry, for your safety, hiding in the carriage is the safest way."

Rojo took out a pack of tissues and handed it to Lorna without letting Jerell know of Lorna's existence.

After all, Lorna is a mutant. With Jelell's IQ, he will definitely guess Lorna's identity. Letting too many people know will only cause trouble.

"I now how to do?"

Lorna wiped away her sweat, took the mineral water from Rojo, drank a few big sips, frowned and said, "You don't want me to stay in the truck, do you?"

"No, my plan is that you find a place to rest nearby first, and I will deliver the goods later. I will contact you after I get out."

As Rojo said, he took out a brand new mobile phone from his pocket, handed it to Lorna, and said, "Here, use this to contact her."

"Okay, then come out quickly."

Lorna played with her new mobile phone, and then went to a nearby cold drink shop before Jeleel came back. The weather was too hot, and she was going to suffer from heatstroke if she stayed in the car for so long if she didn't cool down.

After several previous emergencies, the Sherman family lost many important personnel, including Ender Sherman, which set off an alarm for the entire family.

Now the entire Sherman Manor is equipped with barbs on the fence, and guards are strengthened near the fence. Every vehicle entering and exiting needs to be strictly searched, and vehicles unrelated to the family are not allowed to enter.

Rojo and Jeril's truck was also turned over, and every box was pried open. Even the inside of the antique vase was not spared. After careful inspection, the guards let them go, but there were still people throughout the process. Follow the unloading.

"Roho Jeril, Mr. Sherman, please come up."

After the goods were unloaded and sent upstairs, the housekeeper motioned for Rojo and Jeril to follow them to the study where they often met.

"Idiot! This thing can't be handled well. I make so much money every year, but I support you in vain!"

In the study, the elder Sherman was on the phone, with a stern face and an extremely angry mood.

After a few minutes, he hung up the phone and straightened his collar, "Roho Jeril, you have done a good job. Unfortunately, you are the only one who has done a good job these days. My poor Ende was... Damn Grell to death!”

"Condolences."

Jerell spoke quickly.

Rojo said nothing.

"No, the goods you brought back are the best comfort to me." Sherman held up an emerald necklace on the table, his angry expression calmed down a little, and he rubbed the emerald beads with his fingers, "Look at the history. As time passes, it still maintains its original charm and color.”

"Mr. Sherman, please let me interrupt you. You didn't come to us just to admire these jewelry."

Rojo was too lazy to watch the old guy show off those precious jewelry. He had seen enough while delivering the goods.

"Rojo, don't talk."

Jerell reminded in a low voice.

"Kid, be respectful."

The butler frowned displeased. No one in the family dared to interrupt Mr. Sherman.

"It's okay. He was right. Let's talk about business first."

Sherman put the jade necklace back into the display box and then placed it on the display shelf behind him.

He sat back and continued: "You two, what we are facing now is a fierce battle. The Greer family is challenging our majesty. As a member of the family, the time has come to test you."

"Mr. Sherman, I am not a member of your family."

Rojo frowned and said.

"So this is even more of a test for you, especially since you still have so many friends to take care of."

Sherman stood up and said, "Go back and have a good rest. I will have an important task for you soon."

After a few minutes, the study fell into a brief silence.

The housekeeper sent Rojo and Jeril away and returned to the study. He looked at Sherman who was wiping the picture frame and was a little worried. "Boss, I'm worried that Rojo will lose control."

"He wouldn't, unless he didn't care about his friends, which he obviously did because he came back and he had the chance to just run away in California."

Sherman was not worried at all. Years of experience had allowed him to see that Rojo was not the kind of person who was treacherous and that such an emotional person was the easiest to control.

"Mr. Sherman must want you to assassinate Greer. He is angry now, and the person he wants to kill most must be Greer."

In the parking lot of the manor, in the truck, Jerell looked worried and said, "Assassinating Greer is not an easy task, and Sherman will definitely put all the responsibility on you."

"I know."

Rojo knew what Sherman was thinking.

In fact, it would be easy for Sherman to assassinate Greer, he just had to find a reasonable way.

Just like the Greer family bombed End Sherman, but would not be charged because Ender died in an illegally operated factory, Sherman's accusation against Greer is undoubtedly putting a stone in his own foot.

However, now Sherman obviously wants the mutants to take the blame.

Hiring mutants to assassinate Grell?
After Greer dies and the matter is done.

Sherman can pour all the dirty water on Rojo, especially in this world that is full of discrimination against mutants. Everyone is more willing to believe that a mad mutant killed Greer rather than the great philanthropist Sherman planned it. All this.

Rojo will then become the object of everyone's hatred.

"Rojo, leave this city quickly. You shouldn't have come back yesterday."

Jaleel sighed.

"Don't worry, I'll be leaving and I have a plan."

Rojo looked at Sherman's villa in the distance and said, "But he won't walk away easily. At least he will let Sherman know the consequences of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf."
