Chapter 143: The Corleone Family Needs William [Asking for a Subscription, Monthly Pass, Recommendation]
The speed of the bullets became more and more urgent, and Chen Jun could hear the sound of whistling in his ears.
Fortunately, in the evening, the four fields were dark, and the mafia of Crochecarlo, a group of gangsters and farmers, was not of high quality and inaccurate marksmanship.
Sensing the soft touch below, Marlena under him heard the gunshots surprisingly calmly, Chen Jun yelled at Sai Jin, and then only heard a buzz, and the two fell directly under the stage.
According to the original plan, after he corrected Marlena's name, they would use the magic trick to disappear into the center of the stage out of thin air, but unfortunately this sudden change made the plan for this show not even half unfold.
Falling off the hollow of the stage, the darkness flooded the two of them like a tide, Marlena was a little flustered, and said urgently: "William, where are you?" ”
"Don't worry, I'm by your side?"
Chen Jun took her hand, took out the gun with the other hand, and turned on the light in the passage, "Follow me, don't be afraid." ”
The two of them walked through quickly, and they could vaguely hear a violent thud above, which was the characteristic Chicago typewriter sound.
Croce. Carlo's men are slaughtering the audience under the stage.
At that time, the voice of the man who called out his name, he could not forget, was the voice of Crocecarlo.
The tyrant who started his fortune in Sicily by smuggling was not killed in the original game design of Chen Jun against him, or rather, Bazzini's shot in the chest against Croce did not kill him.
Walking quickly through the passage, Chen Jun did not go to the backstage of the circus, and directly pulled Marlena to the beach.
The starry night was falling, and the silver light was pouring down, and he was no longer satisfied with Marlena's slow steps, and in her exclamation, he directly picked her up and ran to the commanding height and secret point by the sea.
That secret point was discovered by Ivan of the circus, where they often went to practice the basics of throwing knives and balancing.
As soon as the two of them got there, Ladd and Ivan immediately rushed out, sweat and blood staining their faces, "Mr. William, Ms. Marlena." ”
"You escaped, just the two of you, Dai Liya and Sai Jin?" Chen Jun asked.
The two of them fell silent, and Ivan wiped the tears from his eyes: "My father was killed by those men with a pistol to cover us, and Dalia was separated from us in the chaos, and we only heard her wails of pain. ”
"Who the hell are you?"
When Rad heard the name Dai Liya, like an angry bull, he came up and grabbed Chen Jun's collar, "You give them back to me, we don't want your money." ”
"The old man is right, people can't be greedy, you give them back."
"Ladd." Ivan took his brother's hand.
But his eyes were red, the strength in his hand was indestructible, Marlena was worried and wanted to stop her, Chen Jun waved her hand to signal her not to come, and said lightly: "There is no regret medicine in the world, do you think it's interesting to talk about this?" ”
"Nothing in the world can be said for sure? If anything, there is only one --- revenge. ”
"Now——— you have two choices, first: vent your anger-filled anger on me, and second: take revenge on me."
Chen Jun forced Rade's eyes, grabbed his hand holding his collar, and pressed it easily: "If you want revenge now, calm me down in a minute, otherwise I don't need people like you." ”
On the hillside, the sea breeze beat the reef and stirred up the howling wind and waves, and Ladd's body gradually collapsed in front of Chen Jun, roaring silently to the sky.....
**
New York.
Long Beach, Corleone Estate.
Many people know that Godfather Vito Corleone, who has been transferred from Lucacena Hospital to the family hospital, was shot three times, but was lucky enough to undergo two surgeries and recover well.
It's just that many people know in their hearts that when they send visits and blessings to the godfather who returned to Corleone Manor, they all clearly see the pale and tired face of the godfather.
The godfather is old, he is already an old man in his 60s, this assassination has taken away, and he sits in that mahogany office with the spirit of the universe.
He needs a personal doctor to rehabilitate him on a daily basis, and only exercise veto power in some family businesses.
And now, since the exile of the godfather's youngest son, William Corleone, the Corleone family has been taken over by the godfather's eldest son, Sonny.
During this time, the five major families and the Corleone family went to war, and neither side took advantage of it, and there were huge losses, but in this way, the two sides did not have the slightest sign of sitting down for peace talks.
Especially under pressure from above, the situation has become more complex and unclear.
In the office, Hagen handed over a plan, "The gambling in New York has been swept away by many parties, this is the plan of the Las Vegas hotel and the gaming capital, you can take a good look and give me some advice." ”
Sonny took it, glanced at it twice, and threw it aside, "You do it, I don't worry, follow your plan, it's okay." ”
After saying that, he got up and put on a suit, "How about looking at this one?" ”
Heigen had a headache: "You should pay attention during this time, don't think about finding your lover, and don't be angry about Connie's recent incident, William told me, he is old and Qi. Carlo has been in contact with the people of the Bazini family, you must not fall into the trap because of helping your sister, leave this matter to me to deal with. ”
"Okay, I hope Carlo isn't a spy, or I'll make him regret being human"
Sonny smirked and strode out the door.
Hagen shook his head, he had no choice but to deal with these documents, these are about the huge interests of the Corleone family's business, and they can't be given up, Sonny is not interested, so he has to come.
After a busy afternoon at work, I had just stretched out and the phone rang.
Kuraken took it, and there were crying and staccato voices from inside, his face changed drastically, the phone fell, and he ran out of the door frantically.
In the hospital, looking at the woman who was obviously beating her stomach, Kurogen clenched his fists and suppressed his voice: "What the hell is going on?" ”
"I don't know how there are killers over there...... Sonny accompanies me to a baby clothing store where killers pop up and Sonny finds out and kills them, but he also falls down....."
"Why did you go to that store?" Heigen trembled: "Whatever you want, someone will naturally buy it for you." ”
"I.... I.... I just said that the new shop is very good-looking. ”
Kurogen trembled, suppressed his anger, and walked out of the hospital like a soul....
.... The heavy breath enveloped the entire Corleone manor, and it was depressing, and on the bed, the godfather Vito Corleone looked at the servant and was silent, and the old wife covered her mouth and quickly ran past him, and he clearly heard her and her daughter Connie sobbing.
What the hell is going on, what are they hiding from him?
Has it already happened?
Godfather Vito Corleone slowly closed his eyes, his movements were stiff and strange, and he let out a suffocating snort like an old cow, and slowly opened his eyes again.
He got up from the bed, got dressed neatly, and walked out the door with stiff steps.
A dim shadow swept across his face, dark, gray, gloomy, until he saw Kuone sitting silently in the large leather armchair with his head bowed beside a bottle of smoked licorice spirits.
"My wife was crying before she went to bed," he said quietly, "and I looked out the window and saw that both chiefs were coming, but it was the middle of the night, so, my adviser, I thought you should tell your beloved godfather what everyone knows." ”
Hagen looked up, and the godfather sat upright in his armchair with all the strength and tenacity of the past.
"I wanted to go upstairs and wake up and tell you." Hagen was silent, "Sonny was assassinated and shot six times, and the doctor has been treating him for more than 8 hours now, and there is little hope that Sonny will survive until now." ”
The godfather blinked and was silent for half a second, then folded his hands and placed them on the desk in front of him, staring straight into Kuone's eyes. "Tell me what's going on."
Hagen: "Today he went on a date with his lover...."
He told the godfather everything, and he did not hide any of his mistakes.
Listening to the whole process, the godfather stared at Hagen, did not show any emotion, but was silent for a few seconds, "First of all, do your best to save Sonny's life, even if you invite the best doctor in the world, you must pull it back from the hands of death." ”
"Second: None of you are allowed to intervene, no one to launch retaliation, no one to trace the whereabouts of the murderer without my explicit order. Personally, I will not be allowed to take any more war actions against the five major families without nodding, and all of Sonny's wars against the five major families will now be stopped. ”
"Third: In my name, in the name of Vito Corleone, and in the name of the Corleone family, send personnel to propose peace talks to the five major families, and invite representatives of gangsters from all over the country to come to New York to attend the peace talks."
"National Gangster Convention?"
As early as the Prohibition period, Godfather Vito Corleone used his personal power to defeat countless gangsters such as Capon, successfully connected gangsters in many places and presided over the National Gangster Conference.
And the godfather, Vito Corleone was the first, and currently the only, figure to have dominance over the gangs in the United States.
With this kind of authority, he is like an emperor in the dark world, and the godfather is also the emperor of the dark world.
Once this force is gathered, the five major families will undoubtedly be defeated, and the officials will be afraid of it.
Does the Godfather want to go to war?
Heigen opened his mouth and wanted to ask, but saw that the godfather seemed to be in his teens, and he was tired: "Sonny has an accident, what about William?" ”
"We've sent responders over there, and we should get word soon." Hagen said.
The godfather shook his head: "It's not that simple, I don't want to lose a son, send Luca Brazy over by plane, now..... The Corleone family needs William."
