The Federal Charity Hospital of Naples is one of the best hospitals in the county of Crown.

In particular, their trauma surgery is of such a high level that it is not far behind the orthopedics department in Black Hawk County.

However, despite the excellent level of medical care and the fact that it is a public hospital, it is more deserted than many private medical institutions.

The reason for this is actually a matter of price......

Although the hospital has a "public" sign, the actual threshold for consumption is higher than that of the private one.

At the Federal Charity Hospital in Naples, all medical supplies, medicines, routine and value-added medical services may not be the best in the county, but they must be the most expensive in the county; And they don't accept any health insurance or installment payments, and all the fees are settled upfront – pay first, service later.

Logically speaking, this is undoubtedly unreasonable and illegal.

Even private hospitals must have a standardized fee standard, and they must cooperate with the federal social security system, let alone "public".

However, since this unreasonable thing does exist and has existed for many years, there is a reason for it.

The name "Vittorio Bruno" is the reason behind this.

Many people know this name, because this Mr. Bruno is the chief executive of the county of Crown, the "head of the federal county", and has been in this position for many years.

His family dates all the way back to the Renaissance, from poets to businessmen, from mafia to politicians, from rebels to those in power...... Throughout the history of the county of crowns, the figure of the Bruno family has never faded away.

Vittorio Bruno, on the other hand, is perhaps the most powerful member of their family to date.

For at least the last decade, his name has been the equivalent of "law" in Guanzhi County, or even higher than the law.

Especially in this part of Naples...... This is the home of the Bruno family, and his roots are unshakable; Even more than 100 years ago, when the rebel group "Iron Commandment" entrenched itself in Crown County, the Bruno family never fell.

In this city, Vittorio can find whoever he wants, and whoever he wants to disappear, he has to disappear.

So, he wanted a hospital that had a public brand, but was really only for those associated with the Bruno family and a very small number of wealthy people, and that could be such a hospital.

"Public" or something, it's just a shell that Vittorio uses to avoid taxes, it doesn't mean that there is a "public" word at ease, it is to serve the public; Who to serve, it is still up to those in power to decide.

…………

This morning, a patient came to the emergency room of the hospital.

In addition to mild internal bleeding, he received one bullet each in his right arm and left leg; The wound on his arm was fine, but the shot in his leg had caused heavy bleeding, and if he hadn't done some emergency treatment himself, he would have died before he got into the ambulance.

When encountering such a patient, the hospital will naturally call the police.

But as a result, the police only dispatched a few people, came here for a circle, and after going through the process, they hastily closed the team.

And the medical staff ...... It's not surprising that this is not surprising.

Working in this hospital, I know a lot of things; The federal police officers in Crown County can't be said to be very good, but they don't do things like this, and there is only one explanation for this situation - someone took care of them before they came.

Late, eight-o'clock-10.

After nearly ten hours of surgery and post-operative care, the patient was admitted to a single room.

A police officer in charge of staying behind sat at the door of the ward, sipping cup of coffee from the vending machine.

At 8:40, a group of people who knew by just looking at their gait that they were practicing their families walked into the hospital hall; Moreover...... Without asking the front desk, I went straight to the ward.

"Shhh......h

What that means – what's going to happen next, I don't know.

The gang knew the rules, and they waited until the officer had turned into the toilet and completely disappeared from sight before pushing open the door to the ward.

Tick – tick –

The room was quiet, with only the slight sound of the ECG monitor.

The "big brother" lying on the hospital bed was infusion and was asleep.

At this time, a total of three men and one woman came to the ward, all wearing jackets and jeans, and wearing sunglasses in the room; They left one of the male members at the door of the ward to take charge of the wind, while the other three quickly came to the bedside of the senior brother.

"Let's do it." The man at the head, named Aladino, glanced at the master brother on the hospital bed, and then coldly gave the order to his companion.

As soon as he finished speaking, the female killer took out a mini syringe from her coat pocket and injected a needle into the infusion tube in the arm of the master brother.

After ten seconds, the data on the ECG monitor changed.

Seeing this, the male killer closest to the centrifugal electric meter quickly reached out and pulled the power cord connected to the siren. In this way, even if the heartbeat and pulse on the ECG are zero, the alarm on the nurse's desk will not sound.

"Hmm......" After a short time, the master brother woke up from a muffled snort; As soon as he opened his eyes, he showed a painful look, and immediately took off the breathing mask on his face and gasped for breath.

"Marino." Maintaining a cold tone, Aladino said to him, "Do you know why you're still alive?" ”

The man known as "Marino" is the master brother lying on the hospital bed.

"Huh...... Huh...... I...... I won't ......" Marino gasped as he continued, "Betrayal ......"

"Say whatever you want." Aladino interrupted him, "Here we go...... It's just because the leader is a little curious about what kind of goal can make you so embarrassed. ”

"Yes...... the male killer standing next to the ECG sneered and continued, "After all, the other party made you Marino like this when they were fighting one against three." ”

Hearing this, Marino first gasped and was silent for a few seconds, and looked at the three people in the room with a very subtle look, and then he actually smiled: "Heh! Hahaha......" Marino just laughed, gasped, and continued in a strange tone, "Okay, I'll tell you all right......," he paused, "My target this time is Jack Anderson." ”

As soon as the name came out, the faces of the three people standing changed.

Sneering, light-hearted, and aloof...... Disappeared from their faces in an instant, replaced by a kind of surprise and solemnity that could not be concealed.

"To avoid misunderstandings." After thinking for a few seconds, Aladino added, "I'll make sure...... The Jack Anderson you are talking about is the 'God of Killing' who suddenly disappeared four years ago, right? ”

"That's right."

This response was not given by Marino.

It came from outside the door......

When they heard the sound, the two men and one woman only felt their scalps tingle; Almost instinctively, they pulled their guns in a second, and raised their guns in unison in the direction of the door.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not going to fight you." In the next second, Jack outside the door answered in a calm tone, "In a while, I will slowly open this door and come in and talk to you." As long as you don't do anything that makes me feel dangerous, then I won't do anything dangerous to you. He paused for half a second, "Otherwise...... I'll have to talk to other people. ”

At first glance, there was nothing wrong with what he said, and he was even quite polite, but after thinking about it carefully, the meaning was basically - "Lao Tzu is going to come in and ask you some questions now, you don't resist and we still have to talk, if you have any changes, I will turn you into corpses, and then continue to talk to those guys who came to collect the corpses." ”

Gollum -

After a breath, the door to the ward was pulled open horizontally with the sound of rollers sliding.

Jack, dressed in a black suit, appeared in the doorway.

The three killers were still holding their guns, aiming at Jack's location, but no one fired; In fact, compared to Jack with both hands in his pockets, they are too weak to hold guns.

"Do you usually talk to people with your face to the muzzle of the gun?" Jack asked, looking at them.

After two seconds of hesitation, Aladino ...... The first put down the hand holding the gun. The man and woman beside him saw that the strongest one here had compromised, so they naturally followed suit.

After all three of them had lowered their arms, Jack took a step forward and walked into the hospital room, closing the door behind him.

"If you want to know...... Jack said casually as he closed the door, "your friend who is in charge of the doorman is now resting in the next room, and will wake up in an hour." ”

"Worthy of the legendary God of Killing......" Aladino looked Jack in the eye, "to be able to quietly solve a full member of the Underworld just a door away from us." ”

"How?" Jack listened to this compliment, but did not show the slightest mood swing, "Now this kind of 'routine operation' has become something worth boasting about?" So...... How are you all accomplished now? Drive a tank to the target's house? ”

This kind of behavior not only does not recognize it, but also ridicules it, which undoubtedly makes the three people very unhappy.

But it's not happy, and it's not to the point where you have to have a seizure.

"You said you wanted to talk to us......" Aladino suppressed a little anger, skipped the meaningless polite words, and began to get to the point, "then...... What do you want to talk about? ”

"Of course, it's about why as soon as I arrived in Naples, there were people from the underworld who wanted to kill me." Jack replied.

Hearing this, Aradino turned his head to look at Marino on the hospital bed, and then said, "I have to declare...... This guy lying on the hospital bed at this moment is no longer our Qianming person. ”

"You fart!" As a result, Marino immediately shouted excitedly, "We are the real Hell!" You guys...... Hmmm......"

He had barely finished speaking before the female killer shoved the muzzle of a pistol into his mouth.

Jack observed his words, thought for a second for a moment, and then muttered, "I see...... he smiled rarely, "Huh...... Unexpectedly, an organization like Qianming would also have infighting. ”

"It's not as serious as you say." Aladino replied coldly, "It's just that there is a last descendant of the 'Ducho' family, and he is not satisfied with the fact that someone outside their family has become the head of the underworld, so she defected with a handful of people who supported her, and called herself 'orthodox'...... He is also doing some self-righteous things that ruin the reputation of the organization. ”

"Hmm...... "Even though he was gagged by a gun, Marino in the hospital bed let out a slurred scold when he heard this.......

"It looks like the other person has a different opinion than you." Jack glanced at Marino and continued, "Of course, that's fine, I don't have any interest in the power struggles within your world; Your one-sided words, and his gagged mouth...... Again, it's not of much value to me. As he spoke, he turned sideways, as if to leave, "Since you both claim to be orthodox, I will leave it here...... From this day forward, if I were harassed again by the self-proclaimed Assassin, I would not be like this...... Only measures to the level of 'justifiable defense' have been taken...... I hope that both of you can show orthodoxy, keep the 'rules', and don't test my bottom line again." ”

So saying, he opened the door, went out without looking back, and helped them to close the door.

When Jack walked away, the male killer next to the ECG spoke, "Cut...... Pretend......" he looked very unhappy, "I don't believe it, what could he do if the three of us had just shot him through the door before he opened it?" ”

"Don't you think your words are ridiculous?" Aladino tilted his head, looked at his companion, and said unceremoniously.

"What's wrong?" And that one still doesn't understand the ridiculousness there.

"Before he opened his mouth to answer us, we had no idea that he had leveled Sandro and was already standing in the doorway listening to our conversation." "That is," Aladino continued, "That is...... At that time, he could attack us at any time if he wanted to. ”

When he heard this, the male killer suddenly changed his expression and felt a chill down his spine.

"Your assumption that 'we will shoot at him across the door together' is based on the premise that the other party has already let us go and actively exposed himself." The man at the head continued, "Then think about it from a different angle, if the person outside the door is you, you have the courage and certainty...... Do the same actions as him? ”

The male killer did not answer, and there was no need to answer.

"The name of 'killing gods' is not something he blew out himself." Aladino continued, "Don't think the other person is arrogant...... Acting in a high-profile manner beyond one's own ability is called arrogance; And Jack Anderson ...... It's just a low-key, normal thing. You'll think he's crazy, and that's because...... His low profile is enough to stimulate the inferiority complex in your heart......"

As he spoke, he walked around to the bedside and placed his hand on Marino's forehead.

"Alright, Marino, my former brother." When Aradino said this, Marino already knew what he was going to do, but he was powerless to resist, "Rest in peace...... May you be forgiven in the other world, and accept that new, true creed," he said after a pause for a second...... "...... Everything is reasonable, and everything is the cause. ”

As he spoke, Marino's two eye sockets began to glow brightly, and his body began to spasm violently.

At this moment, the female killer had withdrawn the gun and covered Marino's mouth with her hand, while the male killer stepped forward and pressed his body.

The trembling didn't last long, and after seven or eight seconds, Marino was no longer moving......

His skull, now a hollow bony shell, was completely burned inside; The charred substance flowed out of its seven orifices in unison, emitting a pungent odor.

"Let's go." Aladino took one last look at Marino, then looked up at his two companions and said, "Go and wake up Sandro first, and then we need to go to the leader as soon as possible......"
