"What did you say?"

Peter Parker felt that he had been completely tricked, and in order to track down what he thought was a suspicious person, he not only threw Belle but also took such a heavy punch that it turned out that the person was actually on his side.

"And then, I've removed the bugging he's installed in this room," said Belle, "but I don't care about the other rooms, and you can't guess what these people are saying, and I took the opportunity to look at the ...... while he grabbed me."

"How about him?" Peter jumped to his feet, "He's still alive, isn't he?" Or what did you do with him? ”

"Shouldn't you be concerned about my condition?" Belle asked, "I was just almost killed by someone who could knock you unconscious with one punch!" ”

"That must feel terrible." "But you know that if you're not careful, for example, by cutting off someone's arm or something, we're going to have a hard time doing it." ”

"You can at least pretend to care about me." Belle said, "But you're right, so I didn't do anything, I let him almost strangle me to death, and by the way, I found his phone number in his head, and sent a message asking him to come here in the early morning, and we need to discuss what to do next." ”

"You're really not resisting at all?"

Peter was so frightened that he ran over and examined Belle's neck, but he didn't notice even a bruise, but it quickly occurred to him that she must have healed herself.

"I'm so sorry I should have been with you," he said guiltily, "and I'm sorry I heard Helen talk about last night as well. ”

"It's not your fault, it's that the other party is too powerful," Belle said, "he knows all of us well, and he has plenty of manpower for him to deploy, and we are all on the road with careful planning and arrangement." ”

"But if he arranged all this, don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?" Peter asked, "We were completely impromptu in order to approach him during the feast, and how it happened that someone had taken Hernan and stumbled Helen, and even those who had resisted your orders happened to be looking for you to dance, and the most incomprehensible thing was that I was also led away, and the people who led me away were still his enemies." ”

"Well, I haven't been able to figure out what this is all about," Belle said, "and I even went to investigate that Sam last night, who was the nephew of Christy Carrington, who had recently married Blake, and who had nothing to do all his life, and who lived here only because his aunt was the mistress here, and he happened to be involved with Blake's son, Steven." ”

Hearing this, Peter understood what she meant.

"To resist your orders, it takes a particularly strong willpower, and it should be impossible for such a person to do it." Peter said, "Unless he has something to hide?" ”

"No, even if he could resist the order, he wouldn't be able to resist my invasion of his memories," Belle said, "and he couldn't have that strong willpower, unless, the memories I saw were fake." ”

"Won't it?" Peter was really frightened at this moment, "Let's not talk about how the other party can let you see fake memories, how do they know that you have this ability?" Hasn't it always been hidden very deeply? ”

"So I'm more inclined to think that the other side has a way to resist my orders." Belle pondered, "But the most important thing is that we need to figure out why they're making such targeted arrangements for our impromptu actions, or else it would be pointless." ”

She couldn't help but start to resent Doctor Strange and Wang who had given her invitations, at least they should have reminded them of the tricky trouble that would come with attending this wedding.

And the most troublesome thing for her is here, she can't simply and rudely use superpowers to solve problems.

In this wealthy house, all she can rely on is her IQ, acting skills, three well-known comrades-in-arms, and a Danny Rand who will cause more trouble at any time.

But calculating others, sincerity is not her strong point.

And judging from last night's situation, Adam Carrington is obviously a particularly calculating person.

Attacking the enemy's strengths with one's own shortcomings, or in the case of extreme asymmetry of information between the two sides, this is tantamount to seeking a dead end.

But if you want to collect information, you may fall into another dilemma: the entire Carrington Mansion has been completely controlled by Adam Carrington through some unknown means.

This kind of control is not as low-level as simply installing bugs or surveillance cameras in every room, as Danny Rand did.

He controls people.

To maintain a manor of this size, a large number of people are required.

The chief housekeeper, the doorman, the head chef and kitchen staff, the gardener, the craftsman, the driver, the security guard, the cleaner, the waiter, these people together are close to a hundred.

Most of them are completely unknown to the Carrington family.

They only care about the little things they have at hand every day: business, socializing, love, enjoyment, and a lot of family secrets that can't be put on the table.

All of these are intertwined to form an intricate web of relationships.

Not to mention the huge circle of connections of the Carrington family itself, and countless powerful families, maintaining an intertwined posture, which affects the whole body.

It's very difficult to sort out even a little bit of clues.

However, judging by last night's situation, it is likely that Adam Carrington has taken full control of it all. He is like a giant spider, lying in the center of this web of relationships, monitoring, arranging, using everything to achieve his ends.

All Belle needs to do is find an opportunity to drag Adam Carrington out of this big net.

While Belle was pondering, Adam Carrington was doing his thing calmly.

Sam had just come to him and told him that the ex, who had been entangled with Steven, had been arrested by the police after the police found him hiding drugs in his car.

"Is this what you did?" Sam asked, "I just wanted him to stop bothering us, but I didn't want to hurt him." ”

"You did a very good job last night," said Adam with a smile, as usual in his usual calm appearance, "and I, of course, will keep my word, and a man like that, if you let him go at will, he will definitely get an inch." So I had to use something unconventional. ”

"But you don't have to worry," Adam reassured Sam when he saw his emotions, "I'm naturally measured, the police will arrange for him to go to a place far away from Georgia (the southeast corner of the United States, next to Florida) to force drug rehabilitation, such as Montana or Idaho (the northwest corner of the United States), and never bother you and Steven again." ”

Sam's expression was still anxious, he didn't want to ruin another person's life because of his jealousy.

"Listen, young man," said Adam, "to-morrow I will marry Fallon, and I am sure it won't be long before you and Steven will do the same, and from now on we will be family, and we will help each other, and trust each other." Cheer up, instead of thinking about those worries, you can do me a favor and see how the wedding scene is set up, the planning team is indeed very conscientious, but you have to check it out, I can feel at ease. ”

Sam finally left satisfied, and Adam finally took out his phone, which had been ringing for more than ten minutes, and picked up the call he was particularly reluctant to answer.

"You don't even want to answer my phone now?" The opposite side asked menacingly.

"What's the matter, can't we wait until tomorrow is over?" There was a slight impatience in Adam's tone, which no one had ever seen.

The person on the other side heard this impatience, and his anger suddenly rose another step, "Tomorrow? After tomorrow, it's too late! ”

Adam took a deep breath and regrouped his emotions.

"You know how important marrying Fallon is to our plans, and we need the full support of the Carrington family and them."

"I've never understood, what's so great about Carrington sluts?" Talking on the other side of the phone, he actually brought out a cry, "Isn't it just money?" How much money can she have? Billions or tens of billions? Don't I? I'll just sell one or two things and I'll be able to ......"

"We've talked about it before!" Adam said solemnly, "The world is fundamentally different from what we know, there are too many unknown variables, and any inconspicuous loss of props may cause irreparable and huge setbacks." ”

"Don't tell me about these useless things!" The other side roared, "I promised you, I will try my best to get back what I lost." That french slut, I'm going to kill her sooner or later. ”

"Calm down," Adam's voice became quieter and quieter, but his tone became more and more ruthless, "You also saw what happened to the third child last time, he didn't listen to my advice, he had to act on his own, and even took his life, what was the result?" He was unscathed, and not only did we lose a lot of credits to resurrect him, but we also completely lost Broken Jade. ”

"What if you lose it? Anyway, that thing has to be handed over sooner or later," said the other side, "Besides, the third child's 'one-knife cremation' can't hurt her, just because I can't." As long as I can ......."

"I've already told you, don't act rashly!" Adam whispered, "Unless you're 100 percent sure, don't take any more chances." Our credit points are not enough for the time being, and we will be resurrected again, if you have three long and two short, how can I still live! ”

The other side suddenly stopped talking, just crying silently.

"You know I'm not serious with Fallon," Adam's tone softened, "all we need is the reputation and status of the Carrington family, and this is the best way we can control the upper echelons of America." As long as the goal is achieved, I will dispose of them, and you will not be upset to watch them. ”

"I still have a lot of credits," said the other side sobbing, "I can buy a new image like the fourth (Night King, buy a new image, see Chapter 72 for details), buy a new image so we can ......"

"Don't waste points on this kind of thing," said Adam, "and the change you want is much more expensive than the fourth's, and we need enough points, just in case." My dear, no matter what you look like, I don't mind, wait a little longer, it won't be long before everything will be back to normal. ”

After some kind words and comfort, the phone call, which was causing Adam's headache, finally ended.

His expression management is excellent, and there is nothing abnormal on his face during the whole process, even if someone looks at it from a distance, it just feels like he is talking about business.

But in his heart, he was not just angry, but reached the level of disappointment.

Tears, screaming, yelling, throwing things, and even moving hands, when couples or even couples quarrel, these are all signs of anger. Although it is terrible, it at least shows that in the hearts of both parties, the other party still occupies a place.

But disappointment is another matter, once completely disappointed, it means that the relationship is coming to an end.

At this moment, Adam has made up his mind to cut himself off with his girlfriend, the person who accompanied him to the Marvel world.

But not now.

After his plan was launched smoothly, after he got the people he wanted.
