Clober Manor is a luxury estate located on Long Island, New York, surrounded by mountains and seas.

As one of the three major underworld families in New York, the Klober family has also gone through a path of brutal killing and dirty conspiracies in the process of its rise. On this road to making a fortune, it is natural to make countless enemies.

Therefore, in the life of the elder Clowber, he also experienced countless assassinations.

But if there was one that scared him the most, it would have been fifteen years ago.

Fifteen years ago, the elder Clopber was invited to Las Vegas to negotiate a business with the biggest local gangster. The other party promised to give up a part of the shares, and the two parties jointly set up a casino.

In everyone's heart, there is some gambling to a greater or lesser extent, hoping to get rich overnight. This is also the reason why so many people buy lottery tickets or participate in gambling. Casinos cater to this kind of gambling in people's hearts and have become a veritable gold hole, so opening a casino can be described as a one-day deal.

The elder Klopber had long wanted to get involved in the casino business in Las Vegas, but one was in Nevada and the other was in New York, which were too far apart. Before this, old Klober was powerless even if he wanted to do it. After all, the Clowber family's sphere of influence was limited to the New York area.

Therefore, after receiving the invitation, old Clowber was naturally ecstatic, this is simply a pie falling from the sky!

However, when he and Frandy lead several of their men to Las Vegas, they find themselves in an elaborate trap.

On their way from the airport to the meeting point, they were ambushed in the desert. The desert, with little shelter, is an excellent place to carry out ambushes. Therefore, the few subordinates who accompanied him did not even have a chance to draw their guns to resist, so they were solved by the other party.

Old Clopber was also desperately protected by Flandy to escape from the encirclement in a hurry.

Franky is also a ruthless guy. After escaping the encirclement and placing old Clowber in a hiding place, he turned back and killed the ambush by surprise.

At that moment, Flandie's true colors as a top killer in the underworld were also fully revealed, and he actually solved more than 20 people on the other side by himself.

The reason why Flandi did this was also to give the other party a warning and let the other party know the consequences of offending the Clowber family.

Later, Old Clopber and Flandy intercept a small car and begin to flee frantically. For them, they must escape from the Las Vegas gang as soon as possible in order to find a way to survive.

On the way to escape, when they passed a motor hotel, the hungry and tired old Crowber insisted on going in to rest and have a drink, and Flandy had no choice but to follow him in.

Just as the two of them were eating and drinking enough and were about to leave, a beautiful Japanese woman in a kimono came in from outside. In a car hotel in the wilderness, encountering this kind of superb woman suddenly made some men in the hotel want to move.

Old Klober didn't know what kind of nerves he had made, so he actually ran up to talk to the other party. It may also be because he drank too much wine, when the old Clopber took the wine bottle to the other party, his hand did not grasp it steadily for a while, and the wine bottle fell to the ground.

At the last moment, the Japanese woman quickly reached out and steadily grabbed the fast-falling bottle.

When Flandy saw this, he burst into flames, appeared beside Old Clopber at lightning speed, and then jerked him backwards. At that moment, the Japanese woman swung her dagger across the skin of Old Clopber's throat.

If Flandy's movements had slowed down even the slower, Old Clowber would have been in a different place. It turned out that this Japanese woman was actually a killer who followed them.

This time, too, was the closest old Clowber came to death, so much so that he often woke up from nightmares.

In the ensuing battle, this woman actually had a hard time with Flandy, and faintly had a slight upper hand.

In the end, old Clopber, who came to his senses, let go of a black gun and hit the woman in the shoulder, forcing her to flee in a hurry.

Old Clowber and Flandy didn't dare to delay any longer, so they hurriedly jumped into the car and fled all the way to Los Angeles, and then flew back to New York.

It was nearly midnight, and the lights were still on in old Crowber's study. Old Clopber and Dijor Flandy sat on the couch smoking cigars, and Matt poured them half a glass of red wine and sat down next to them.

"Grandpa Flandy, thank you for today!" Matt thanked Flandy solemnly.

Matt thanked Frandy for stopping Matt's attack on Li Jingwei at the right time. Now, Matt has realized how powerful Li Jingwei is, and it is conceivable that if Matt smashed the wine bottle at Li Jingwei at that time, he would definitely attract the other party's counterattack.

Under the ** of old Clowber and Flandy, Matt is not only ruthless, but also knows how to advance and retreat, and acts bravely and strategically, which can be said to be the hope of leading the Clowber family to glory.

Naturally, Frandy didn't want Matt's safety to be at risk. Therefore, after realizing that the situation was not right, he stopped Matt's behavior as soon as possible to avoid incurring a counterattack from the other party.

It can be said that in addition to the fact that choosing Li Jingwei as the object of trouble was a mistake, Matt's performance at Babeta Restaurant today was perfect.

Later, after Val arrived, Matt forced him to explain the process of being supported by S.H.I.E.L.D. to become the leader of the underworld. Val also promised to willingly become a vassal of the Klober family, and in the future, he would secretly pass on information from S.H.I.E.L.D. to Matt.

Vaal's choice was realistic. Although he has the support of S.H.I.E.L.D., he knows that he is unlikely to be an enemy of the Klober family. If he is killed, S.H.I.E.L.D. may immediately support another person out.

What S.H.I.E.L.D. needs is a living, valuable Vaal, and dead people have no value. Therefore, Val knows very well that his life must be protected by himself, and he cannot rely on S.H.I.E.L.D. to protect him.

After what happened today at Babbetta's restaurant, it became clear to the people in the underworld of New York that they had to consider the possible revenge from Matt's madness before reaching out to the Clowber family's territory.

The elder Klober may be old, but his copy of Matt has grown.

Matt was already known for his ruthlessness before he was imprisoned. No one on the underworld wants to provoke such a ruthless guy casually.

"Matt, you did a great job today. Brandi took a sip of red wine and said.

To be honest, Matt's choice of Li Jingwei as the target of trouble today makes a certain sense. first used the jealousy to fight Li Jingwei, and then took the opportunity to make trouble in the restaurant and forced out the behind-the-scenes boss Val. There are no flaws in the whole plan. Li Jingwei, as a fresh face, seems to be indeed a suitable target for trouble.

The problem is that he didn't see Li Jingwei's strength clearly. But this did not blame him, and with Franky's old spiciness, he didn't find anything wrong at first.

So, Brandi said Matt did a great job of cashing in today.

"Diroel, what's going on with that Asian in the dining room today?" asked Old Crowber to Flandy.

"This guy is amazing. "The kind of coercion in him is invisible, but I can feel that it is no match for him." In fact, this young man didn't take our side seriously at all. ”

"How about that woman fifteen years ago?" asked Old Clowber again.

"Not at all on a level. I'm afraid there is no resistance in the hands of this young man. Brandi said.

Listening to Frandy's words, old Clowber gasped. He glanced at Matt, who was sitting next to him, and was a little scared. He didn't want his grandson to have any strengths and weaknesses.

"Looking back now, there was something wrong with what I did at the time. Matt reflected, "With such a beautiful woman around, it must not be an ordinary person, either with a strong background or with great strength." Otherwise, how can you protect such a woman who is alluring the country and the city. ”

"Also, he didn't panic in the slightest when I cleared his men. Especially the woman next to him was able to eat safely, which must have a strong confidence in the men around him. ”

"So, looking at these aspects, my behavior later on is indeed a bit reckless. ”

Matt said these words without the slightest expression of embarrassment, but with a serious analysis of what had happened.

Old Clowber and Flandy looked at each other, and both smiled with satisfaction.

It's not terrible to make mistakes, but it's terrible to make mistakes without knowing it, and not knowing how to reflect.

It is very rare that Matt was able to analyze what happened so calmly and objectively, and summarize the successes and failures. Therefore, Matt's performance made both of them feel very satisfied.

Everyone makes mistakes in their lives. The difference between a winner and a loser is that the former will actively reflect on themselves and reduce the mistakes they make, at least not make the same mistakes in the future.

"Matt, it's rare for you to be able to sum up the lessons learned in such an objective way. Frankie watched Matt grow up, the two were also teachers and friends, and of course he would be sincerely happy about Matt's growth and progress.

"Thank you, Grandpa Flandy!" said Matt, "it seems that I will need to work harder to learn from you and improve my martial arts in the future." ”

"After all, force is only an auxiliary, and having a pattern and strategy for doing things is the most important thing. What do you think of the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s offer for the treasure map deal?" said Brandi, sipping down the wine from his glass.

"S.H.I.E.L.D. has taken the treasure map, and has offered to arrange a treasure map trade, apparently for another purpose. The motive behind this may be to take the opportunity to provoke a fight between all parties, so as to reap the benefits. ”

Matt pondered for a while, then continued: "After the S.H.I.E.L.D. took the treasure map, they offered to let us cooperate with the act in such a short time, and nine times out of ten, they failed to crack the secret of the treasure map. If this is the case, it cannot be ruled out that S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to take the opportunity to throw out the treasure map and use the forces of other parties to crack the treasure map. ”

"After all, with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s global surveillance network, even if one party cracks the treasure map, it will be difficult to avoid S.H.I.E.L.D.'s satellite surveillance in the process of unearthing the treasure. ”

"Shall we continue to participate in the battle for the treasure in the future?" asked Old Crowber.

"We can't crack a treasure map when it's in our hands. Since we chose to hand it over to S.H.I.E.L.D. before, we don't want to get involved in the treasure competition later. The subsequent contention should be a contention between the forces of some countries. For our part, we must not get involved in the struggle between the branches of state power. ”

Matt said, pouring red wine into their glasses.

"Hmm. Okay, we'll just cooperate with S.H.I.E.L.D. and don't get involved in the rest of the matter. Old Cloper finally clapped.

Before this, Old Clopber had already discussed the matter with Flandy, and the judgment of the two was basically the same as Matt's. Asked Matt again for his opinion, just to take the opportunity to examine him.
