Chapter 896: New Hellfire Club
The customer who needs to be introduced here, he is the head of a branch of the evil gang, his name is Canrong, he is a Chinese, although the name of this evil gang is very loud, but it is the first cute gang in Hell's Kitchen, as long as the area of their activities is a Chinese community, usually the people of the evil gang often help the neighbors repair the house, help the grandmother cross the road, protect the children in the community to go to school, drive away those who want to make trouble, etc., can be called a model neighbor, the reputation is very good, although the combat effectiveness is not strong, but the popularity is excellent, Li Kang has just returned to Hell's Kitchen, and they have also been taken care of a lot。
So this money can't be earned, but that demon is definitely not a powerful character, there is Li Kang's magic protection nearby, and a particularly powerful demon can't get in, and a demon of that level, to be honest, can't come to the earth through a small wormhole, they need huge energy to summon, not the most mature magicians can't do it, this kind of small deflated three demons, let Spider-Man and Genesis take a bottle of holy water and spray it can be solved.
However, Genesis is just a child, and it seems too informal to send only one child to exorcism, Angela Alba is going to school activities right now and can't come, and Spider-Man wants to make money, so it's better to let Spider-Man go too.
Li Kang went back and continued to chat with Canrong, Canrong is a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed eyes and a look of Svenwen, he was exiled here by the evil gang, and led a group of old and weak soldiers, and the headquarters did not have any hope, but just wanted them to go to Hell's Kitchen to explore the way, to put it bluntly, they are cannon fodder.
Unexpectedly, Canrong, who was forced into a desperate situation, burst out with amazing combat effectiveness, and the old, weak, sick and disabled under his command had no way to retreat, and they were all dead, so they fought side by side with Canrong, relying on the Chinese community as the base, and relying on the battle line of mobilizing the people, it was also amazing that they had a firm foothold.
After Spider-Man chased and lost Doctor Octopus, he received Li Kang's ultimatum, and he went crazy to Hell's Kitchen, but his luck was so good, he happened to encounter a plane hired by the "Clarion Daily" to do propaganda around the city, the plane happened to fly to Hell's Kitchen, and it really only took him ten minutes to catch up with the plane, but he still found a small alley with no one first, and after changing clothes, he came to the detective agency in a panic.
"I'm sorry, Brother Kang! I'm late!" Spider-Man nodded and said, for this precious salary and letters of recommendation, any self-esteem and other things are just superfluous luxuries.
"No need to apologize, you weren't too late, you were only less than three hours late, this time it's nothing, keep up the good work next time. Li Kang said mockingly.
Spider-Man took a breath and said in his heart that my job is going to be cold.
It was Canrong who relieved him, Canrong smiled and said, "It's nothing, I happened to be chatting with your little boss, I was only twenty-five years old when I came here, but now I am almost fifty, I am good friends with your little boss's parents, I used to come here to collect protection money, but I was almost beaten to death by your little boss's grandfather, that is, my Uncle Li, ahaha... That's been more than twenty years, and now Hell's Kitchen is getting better and better, but my old friends are getting fewer and fewer. ”
Li Kang heard his mother mention the matter of collecting protection money, and when he was a child, Canrong also took care of their family, but when Li Kang was a rebellious teenager, he always looked down on Canrong, thinking that he was rich and peaceful, and had no ambitions, but now of course he doesn't have that kind of thought, and his feelings for Canrong are like those for his uncle.
"Tell him this, he won't understand," Li Kang said to Spider-Man with a smile, "I've already handed over the things to Genesis, he is waiting for you upstairs, you go find him, you two follow Uncle Canrong, this girl who is entangled by demons is Uncle Canrong's youngest daughter, you have to be careful." ”
Spider-Man nodded, he found Genesis, the two returned with a bottle of holy water, and Chanrong chatted with Li Kang again.
Canrong didn't seem to be in a hurry on the surface, but in fact, he was dying in a hurry.
After sending Canrong away, Li Kang took out an invitation from the drawer, frowned and looked at it, the invitation was made of Hebrew parchment, this kind of parchment paper only produces a thousand rolls a year, and people who are not rich and noble are not qualified to use it, and the outside of the invitation is sealed with beeswax, and the seal of the wax is a flame-shaped coat of arms, which is the mark of the Hellfire Club.
The person who sent this invitation is Emma, the White Queen, and recently the Hellfire Club has undergone a very big change, Emma has been squeezed out, and now the Hellfire Club is ruled by three little kids... The eldest of them is twelve years old, and the youngest is also the leader of them, who is only nine years old this year, and the combined wealth of the three little children is twice that of Tony Stark, making them the richest children in the world.
The three children are nine-year-old Roque Feller, who is of a white race, male, 10-year-old Sophie Arjunso, an Indian, who is brown, and 12-year-old Paul Bunyan, who is a black man who is a famous computer genius.
Their family is good friends, about a year ago, their family got together and planned to travel to Hawaii together, but the plane crashed, all the crew members were spared, and the death toll exceeded eighty, which caused a huge sensation at the time, but only the three of them did not board the plane, and now they can control an elite organization like the Hellfire Club at a young age, which shows that their skills and intelligence are superior.
The information that Li Kang can find is all collected by Angela, many of which are gossips on the Internet, but he has been able to piece together the general idea of the matter, if there is no miscalculation, the plane crash was created by them, the purpose is to get rid of competitors and inherit the family property as soon as possible, because they are all children, so it is easy to get rid of suspicion, and some people in the FBI have been suspicious, but it is also because there is no evidence, so it is not closed.
After these three inherited the family business, they immediately cooperated with General Trisk to develop the Sentinel Project, and in terms of political attitude, they firmly supported the severe crackdown on mutants, and even proposed the establishment of mutant concentration camps, in which mutants were locked up for "treatment"....
The position of the White Queen Emma was taken away, and the current White Queen of the Hellfire Club is Sophie, and recently Roque was at the headquarters of the New Hellfire Club in New York, and he was going to hold a grand charity gala, and they invited people from the major mutant hate organizations, and there was no need to ask if this so-called charity gala was for mutants.
And menacing ....
Recently, a mutant camp on the Canadian border was massacred, and the cause of death has not yet been identified, and the local police said it was a mass suicide, but Emma suspected that it was related to the New Hellfire Club.
Of course, mutants are not allowed to participate in this charity gala, but there is one mutant who is an exception - Omega Kid, Omega Kid and Roque used to be classmates, and the relationship between the two was not bad, but then Omega Kid awakened his ability and made a big fuss at the United Nations venue, and the two have cut off contact since then, but it is said that Omega Kid once met with Roque in private.
At the same time, if you want to participate in this charity gala, you must have a check book of more than 100 million US dollars to be eligible to enter, Li Kang happens to have such a large amount of money in his account, and he knows a lot of people and has a lot of methods, so he should have a way to bring the Omega Kid in.
Li Kang didn't want to participate, but Emma talked to Wanda on the phone very intimately, and Wanda found Li Kang, hoping that he could help, not only for mutants, but also for Wanda and their children, because Wanda is a mutant, and nine times out of ten children are also mutants, if someone really intends to be unfavorable to mutants, then he has an unshirkable responsibility.
Li Kang is not an unreasonable person, but he refuses to give this money, and if there is any expense, he must ask Emma and the X-Men to make up the shortfall.
It's nothing, not to mention that Professor X has a knack for making money, in this world, who can find money better than Magneto, Magneto raises his hand to know where there is a gold mine, and there is no need to dig, he can directly extract the gold, so money is not a problem.
