The power of the mind of beauty

Chapter 156 The Quiet Hell's Kitchen

"As expected." Mrs. Gao looked at Lilan with lowered eyebrows, and said softly.

"No, Mrs. Gao, this is what Fisk forced me to do!"

Leland, who was once an important member of the gang alliance, just knelt directly in front of Mrs. Gao without any image at this time, holding one of Mrs. Gao's legs with both hands, and looking up at Mrs. Gao's narrow eyes with sincerity in his eyes , as if this could calm the panic in his heart.

He said in a sad and painful tone: "He captured my family and threatened me with their lives. If I don't help him, all my relatives will be killed by him. Please! Get around me! Mrs. Gao, I was forced to betray the alliance, I have no choice!~"

At that moment, all the worries in Lilan's heart became reality. At this moment, the only thing he could ask for was Madam Gao to forgive him for his years of contribution to the gang alliance. Dare to think.

"Everyone has a choice." Mrs. Gao was unmoved when she heard the words, her tone was still gentle, she looked down into Lilan's eyes and said slowly: "It's just that some people are sober when they choose, and some people choose But when I was blinded by temptation, Leland, we are old friends, I know you will not be tempted by mere money interests, so please tell me, apart from your relatives, Wilson What else did Fisk offer you, no no, don’t worry, you think it through before you speak, trust me, you won’t want to lie to me.”

"What temptation? Everything... ah!"

Mrs. Gao crossed the cane, suddenly stretched it out to Lilan's chin, yanked it, and knocked him over. Before Lilan finished speaking, the tip of the cane directly poked on his chest. No matter how much he struggled, he was firmly pressed to the ground.

It is impossible to imagine how Mrs. Gao's stooped old and weak body can possess such strength.

"In the past, sincerity and trustworthiness were your excellent qualities, Lilan, I miss you once."

As Madam Gao spoke, she raised her cane and slowly moved it over Leland's mouth.

Lilan's pupils shrank instantly, and he shrank his neck violently. At the same time, he quickly waved his hands and shouted in horror: "Wait! Wait! I'll say it! I'll say it!"

"Ok?"

Mrs. Gao stopped moving.

Seeing this, Lilan swallowed a few times before saying in a trembling voice, "Fisk has arrested my family, please wait until I finish speaking!"

Seeing Mrs. Gao's cane shake suddenly, Lilan hurriedly shouted, and continued: "It's true, he took my wife and my son away."

Mrs. Gao nodded with a smile, and said: "Hehe! Your wife and children, so what are you going to say? Do you love them? There must not be many, but I know you have a so-called home in other places, um, a total of There are four, this is your love?"

Leland closed his eyes, took a few breaths, as if he had been appointed, and said decisively: "Fisk said he would give me 1000 million US dollars, and in addition, he would hand over all the money of the underground forces in New York to my management, and at the same time Give me power that I never had before."

"That's all?" Mrs. Gao raised her eyebrows in surprise after listening to Leland's words. She didn't think Fisk's promise was any different from what he had promised in the gang alliance before, except for the $1000 million more.

"That's all." Lilan nodded, then looked at Mrs. Gao, with a distorted expression on his face, and said, "Only what you control is yours, and you will never give me what I want. You just treat me like an accountant, which is not what I want."

"Oh! So it turns out that what you want is power, and it's your own power."

Mrs. Gao finally understood the reason for Lilan's betrayal, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She never thought that what this strict financier was looking for was such a dangerous thing. She admitted that she was wrong. but……

"Thank you for your clarification, Leland, and then... goodbye."

boom!
The cane was pressed heavily, and with a muffled bang, the end of the cane hit the floor.

Madam Gao looked down at the brightly colored ground, retracted her cane, and smiled.

"Red, well, things should go well this time."

……

The night in Hell's Kitchen, the rare peace.

However, such tranquility made Sean a little uncomfortable.

Originally, he came out to digest dinner when he had nothing to do, and he was going to be a hero by the way, but he was shocked.

He's only been away from Hell's Kitchen for a few days, and Hell's Kitchen has turned his face on him. Except for the familiar streets, familiar roadside shops, and familiar neighbors and pedestrians, is this place considered Hell's Kitchen?
Throughout the night, he only heard a panicked scream, but it was a prank made by boring people to record a video. The one who was frightened was not a beautiful woman, but a half-grown man. He heard the sound and left, and then found An old building that was not too tall sat down on the edge of the roof.

Blowing a refreshing cool breeze, looking down at Hell's Kitchen, which has inexplicably become peaceful and peaceful, the pedestrians on the street and under the street lights are not in a hurry as usual. The slow and leisurely pace fully demonstrates the quietness of Hell's Kitchen at this time.

After watching for a long time, Sean stood up, took a breath, and showed a big smile on his face.

At the beginning, the reason why he came out to be a vigilante at night was not because he yearned to be a hero. He was just touched by the tragedy of Granny Eli. Families like Granny Ally's are infected and torn apart by this chaos.

He didn't feel pity for Grandma Ellie's son, because Grandma Ellie's son ended up in such a miserable situation because of gangsters, and he deserved it. He just pitied Grandma Ellie. He laughed, but there was more sadness and decay around him, which made him unavoidably infected.

But the current state of Hell's Kitchen couldn't be better. For Granny Ellie, this kind of tranquility should be the best atmosphere for spending her twilight years peacefully.

Since Hell's Kitchen is so quiet, Sean doesn't want to blow the wind here anymore. No matter how refreshing the cool breeze is, it is not as comfortable for him as Jessica's warm quilt and soft body.

The rules naturally flew back. On the way, Sean seemed to see a burly man in a dark red uniform passing through an alley, which made him pause for a few moments, but the other party's perception seemed to be quite powerful. When he stopped, the man actually raised his head and looked up, which made him startled for a moment, but then he thought of the blind lawyer.

It seemed that some people were destined to walk the path of their destiny, but they were quite different from him, and what was the difference?It must be faith.
