Chapter 37: Harlem Paradise [Ask for Recommendation, Collect]

It's night.

Harlem, Harlem Paradise.

Harlem Paradise, as the most famous nightclub in Harlem, is also one of the strongholds of Cornell Stokes, the "water-bellied snake".

"Hey, Dante."

"Shamik."

After skillfully punching and gesticulating, Dante, who works as a bartender in a nightclub, noticed Shamik's strange face and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, Shamik, you look a little wrong?" ”

"Don't mention it." Shamik shook his head, a hint of gloom flashed on his face, what happened in the barbershop, especially his later performance towards the cleaners, was a little too cowardly, and he naturally didn't want to say it and be ashamed. So, after glancing at the atmosphere in the nightclub, Shamik immediately changed the topic and said, "Bring me a good drink, by the way, what are the good girls in the nightclub?" ”

"Shamik, do you have any money?" Although it was a partner, Dante, as a bartender, still subconsciously asked.

"Please, Dante, do I dare to settle my debts on the territory of the water-bellied snake?!" Shamik said as he pulled out a crumpled bill from his pocket and glanced at a spot on the second floor, "Unless I don't want to live anymore." ”

"I'm just doing it for work, you know Shamik, there's always something that doesn't open my eyes." Pouring the wine and pushing the glass in front of Shamik, Dante said somewhat apologetically.

"Work, work," Hearing Dante's answer, Shamik subconsciously recalled his inferior performance in the barbershop during the day, and poured down most of the glass of wine in front of him with a dark face, before he said with an unhappy expression: "Is it great to have a job, a cleaner and a yellow dwarf...... I, Shamik, am destined to get ahead, like a water-bellied snake. ”

Thinking of this, Shamik couldn't help but turn his head and glance in the direction of the second floor of Harlem Paradise.

"Have you heard? Shamik. ”

In front of the counter, Dante wiped the wine glass in his hand and said, "I saw Martin and a few of them before, they seem to have provoked a certain guy and were beaten up severely, and the rattlesnake was still losing his temper about it just now." ”

"Martin." Hearing the news, Shamik subconsciously pursed his lips, he has always been not very good with Martin and a few of them, especially after they took refuge in the rattlesnake Willis's men, the arrogant posture of several people always stimulated Shamik's sensitive and fragile nerves.

I finally heard a good thing.

Hearing that Martin and the others, who had been unlucky, Shamik only felt that his originally dull mood had finally been relieved a little, took a sip of wine, and couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, aren't Martin and the others quite capable of fighting?" ”

Although the relationship is not good, Shamik also has to admit that Martin and his party have good abilities, otherwise they would not be caught by the rattlesnake to do things under him.

"I only know about Martin's injuries, and they are said to have been knocked down by one person, and I don't know the specific circumstances."

After all, Dante is only a bartender in a nightclub, and he has limited access to information.

"Alone?"

Shamik raised an eyebrow and took another sip of his wine.

"I'll leave for a while."

After taking a sip of the remaining wine from the glass, Shamik hurriedly left the bar with a word.

……

So, how did things get to the way they are?

In the Chinese restaurant, Li Ran was dressed as an earthy yellow waiter, looking at the guests coming and going in the restaurant, with a blinded face.

I obviously came to Luke Cage here to pretend to be a legend, how did I become a waiter working in a restaurant.

"Waiter, sort it out here."

"Here we are." Coming to the table with a rag in his hand, Li Ran sighed while cleaning up the hygiene in the restaurant.

Sure enough, cultural differences should not be underestimated.

I thought that he had brushed up on Mrs. Gao's legend degree just by relying on the name of the Fire Cloud Evil God, but he didn't expect to change the object to Luke Cage and them, and he couldn't even compare to the legend degree given by Mrs. Gao alone.

"Do your job, Ah Xing." At some point, when he came behind Li Ran, Mrs. Connie, the owner of the Chinese restaurant, said to him: "Although Henry recommended you to work with me, if you are lazy, I will not pay your salary." ”

"Yes, I see, ma'am."

casually, agreed, Li Ran looked at Mrs. Connie who turned around and left again, and then looked down at the rag in his hand, the expression on his face was somewhat crying and laughing.

Just looking at his own appearance at the moment, where can he still connect with the mysterious Penglai.

It's just that when he looked up at the nearly five hundred legends on the data panel, Li Ran couldn't say anything about leaving.

finally found the location of Luke Cage, but he left in a gloomy manner without even getting enough legend, which obviously did not meet Li Ran's original purpose.

After all, what Li Ran thought at the beginning was to redeem the remaining more than 400 legendary degrees from Luke Cage.

A week, up to a week.

Secretly setting a deadline for himself, Li Ran decided to stay in Harlem for a week first, and if he really couldn't get enough legend, he would think of other ways, or go to other parts of Manhattan, or go directly to other superheroes or villains.

"Waiter, come here."

"It's coming, it's coming."

After figuring out the joint, Li Ran didn't complain anymore, and then entered the role of Ah Xing.

……

Call~

Shamik let out a long sigh of relief and came out of the bathroom.

Originally, he was supposed to go back to Dante in the same direction, but after taking a few steps in the direction of the bar, Shamik subconsciously stopped and turned his head to look at the stairs behind him.

From there, it's the second floor of Harlem Paradise, where Cornell Stokes, the "Snakebelly Snake," is located.

In the past, although Shamik had passed by this location countless times, he had never had the courage to go up and find out due to the prestige of the water-bellied snake.

"Forget it, I don't want to die yet, it's no joke if I annoy the water-bellied snake."

Shamik hesitated for a moment as he stood in front of the stairs, but finally made the choice he had in mind, just as he had done in the barbershop. After taking a few steps forward, Shamik glanced back in the direction of the second floor with some nostalgia, and just as a familiar face flashed from the position on the second floor.

"Martin?!"

Shamik looked at Martin, who appeared on the second floor, remembered the conversation with Dante at the bar, gritted his teeth and changed direction, and walked up the stairs to the second floor.

"Shit, die or die!"
