Chapter 391: Verdict
The original John Wick, although he was a master, could only be regarded as the first echelon of killers, although there were not many masters like him, but he was still able to pull out dozens or hundreds of people around the world.
But judging by last night's record, John Wick is not a little bit better.
It even makes people wonder if he is a human being, or is there a third party involved?
But this is almost impossible, the authority of the high table in the underground world, personally issued a hunt and kill order, no one will dare to resist.
Any third-party forces that want to participate here will be liquidated without hesitation, and such lessons have abounded in the past half century, as long as people with a little brain will not do such stupid things.
Thousands of killers are not a pain in the bones for a high table, but they are already a little half-fated for New York.
Last night, I cleaned up almost all the low-level killers, and some of the killers who had a team, and the rest were extremely powerful, territory-occupied, and intertwined families.
For example, the Russians, for example, the New York Five families.
They are deeply entrenched, have a lot of industries, and their subordinates are overwhelming, and compared to the fortune that earned more than 14 million US dollars, they are actually more afraid of losing too much strength in the pursuit of John, resulting in their own weakness, so that hostile forces can take advantage of the opportunity.
So although there were many people who died last night, it didn't have much impact on the whole of New York, and the basic market is still there.
New York is an international city, with more than 20 million people pouring in every day, and even if there are only 10,000 killers among them, it only takes 5 days to make up for the lost killers.
And this frequency is very likely to be achieved, especially since the bounty is always hanging high there, and there will be a steady stream of fools from all over the country flying over to try to take a bite of this big pie.
The high table has a great reputation and a long history, with more than 100,000 killers nationwide, and there are countless supernumerary killers and rookie-level killers who are not counted.
Gao Ning wants to kill Brother Gao Tai by himself, I'm afraid he has to let more people die.

In the early morning, a pitch-black Mercedes slowly stopped at the entrance of the New York branch of the Continental Hotel.
Stepping down from the back door of the car, a short-haired woman dressed in black.
She carried a briefcase in her right hand and a glove in her left hand, how to hold the scales of the public goddess, with a serious expression and an indifferent look in her eyes.
"Welcome to the Continental, what do you need?"
It was the lobby manager, Karen, who asked with a kind smile on his face.
The woman didn't speak, just took out a pitch-black coin from her pocket and slowly pushed it over.
The smile on Karen's face vanished, and he picked up the peculiarly shaped gold coin and looked at it, his heart sinking slightly.
Pick up the phone in your right hand and press a few keys simply.
"Sir, there is an adjudicator who wants to see you! Yes, sir! ”
The phone hung up, and Karen said lightly: "The manager is waiting for you in the lounge!" ”
The woman didn't say a word, turned around and left, obviously familiar with the distribution of hotels on the mainland.
In the lounge on the second floor, the woman had just stood still when Winston's voice came from behind her. Jiuhe Library
"I'm guessing you're here to talk to me about John, and if that's the case, I think we can cut it short!"
The voice came from the window, and the woman slowly turned her head, just in time to see the old man who exuded the air of a British gentleman, speaking with a smile.
"It's actually very simple, I warned him to leave, but he refused, that's what happened!"
The woman walked straight over, glanced at Winston, and said with some arrogance, "Mr. Wick has broken the rules!" ”
"That's right! But it has nothing to do with our Continental New York branch, I think you already know what happened last night, and I don't have any news from him right now......"
"I think you're mistaken, I'm not here for Mr. Wick! I'm here because Mr. Wick broke the rules in this hotel. Someone died at the Continental Hotel! ”
"That's right! Actually, I still keep the corpse, although it is cold and a little crowded, but it still leaves a spacious place for him!! ”
The woman nodded: "I want to see!" ”
"Of course!"
Winston personally led the way, and the two of them took a special elevator to the bottom of the Continental Hotel, which is deeper than the underground parking lot and cold storage, with several huge incinerators below, and more than a dozen people are pushing small cars back and forth, working nervously.
Someone had already prepared the special corpse, and the woman walked straight over, looking at the corpse that was so pale that it was already a little swollen.
"Sandno Dantonio! A new member of the High Table was killed by Mr. John Rick while seeking refuge in the Continental Hotel! ”
The woman paused, took a closer look at the wound on her forehead, and continued: "It seems that an automatic pistol cartridge of 145 mm caliber is used!" ”
Winston shrugged helplessly: "After all, he is a man with his own mind, and I can't control Mr. Wick's actions!" ”
"But he left alive because of your decision, didn't he?"
Winston raised an eyebrow, looked into the woman's eyes, and said lightly, "You can indeed say that!" ”
"You and Mr. Wick seem to have known each other for years, and I can't even say an old friend, and then he killed Sandno in front of you.
And you chose to stand by and not only let him go, but even gave him an hour to escape! ”
"I removed him from ......"
"But you gave him an hour!"
"He broke the rules at my hotel......"
"That's exactly the problem, in your hotel! Since it's your hotel, where is your loyalty to the high table? Why is this hour given? ”
Winston was silent.
The woman said lightly: "Then let me make it clear, the purpose of my coming this time is to judge you." You have a week to get things done. At that time, your successor will be appointed.
It is because of the rules that we are different from animals! You have 7 days! In the meantime, if you need help with the handover process, you can come to room 217 to find me! ”
Winston's expression remained unchanged, and he even showed a gentle smile: "I wish you a pleasant stay at the Continental Hotel!"
Looking at the back of the woman gradually leaving, the smile on Winston's face gradually disappeared, and he said softly, "Rules! Sometimes rules are just a shortcut to hell, and hopefully you'll get out of New York alive! ”
