In fact, whether it is Frank Custer or those Irish gangsters, they are all used as pawns by the blacksmith hiding behind the scenes.

Just by borrowing a knife to kill someone, the blacksmith's competitors in the New York market have been severely damaged, and a whole shipload of drugs has been burned by Frank Custer, not to mention the value of the drugs lost is more than millions of dollars.

Those Irish gangsters, although they don't know where to get the news, but with their strength, how can they be the opponents of Frank Custer and Matt Murdoch, not to mention that there is Jessica Jones outside, if it wasn't for Matt Murdoch to stop it, I'm afraid that these dozen or so Irish gangsters would have been killed by Frank alone.

However, when it was all over, Frank jumped directly into the nearby sea and quietly left.

The police soon rushed over, although it was said that the drugs on the ship had been burned, but for them, this was the largest drug smuggling case solved by the New York police in recent years, and the funny thing was that it was the people wanted by the police who caused this scene.

Frank Custer has disappeared again, and the media is even ridiculing the police, who simply let Frank Custer go, and with him wandering outside, the whole of New York may be much better.

Of course, the police couldn't just let Frank go, and don't forget, prosecutor Reyes died at Frank's hands, at least that's what they thought.

And now, Frank has lost his whereabouts again, not to mention that the police can't find them, even Matt Murdoch and Jessica Jones can't find them, not only that, but the search for the blacksmith's whereabouts has also completely broken the clue, obviously, he already knows that Frank is looking for him, and he doesn't know where to hide for a long time, and all the contact with the previous drug dealers and addicts has been cut off.

But even so, Jessica Jones and Karen Page still did not give up, and even Matt Murdoch resumed his law firm business with Nelson, while Jessica and Karen Page were still in the archives, looking for clues.

On the morning of this day, Karen Peggy came to the police station to investigate some information, but accidentally found a list of victims that night, as well as their identities and backgrounds, and the identity of one of them caught Karen Pegg's attention.

That night, Frank Custer was led to the docks because two gangsters were lured out by him and gave the address of the dock at the motel, and it was the person who spoke that he turned out to be a veteran, and the army he had served in before was the same unit as Frank Custer, the only difference was that Frank had already retired from the army when he served.

It was no coincidence that it was because of that man's opening that Frank found the docks, and was killed by a blacksmith with a knife, which severely damaged his rivals, and Frank was almost made dumplings by the Irish gangsters who arrived later.

Karen Peggy didn't tell the police about this discovery, but turned around and went to find Jessica Jones, when it comes to investigating, Jessica, as a private detective, has the most tacit understanding with her, as for Matt Murdoch, the reprimand of her after the last incident has made her a little angry.

If you want to investigate the military, it is best to start with military people, and the one who can help in this matter is the one who came forward to prove that Frank is a war hero, and his superior in the same unit, Colonel Ray Skunov of the United States Marine Corps.

After contacting Colonel Skunov in advance, Jessica and Karen Peggy came to the door that night, and Karen Peggy was just about to explain her intentions, but Jessica grabbed her and gave her a look.

Karen Pegg, who was a little unexplained, followed Jessica's gaze and happened to see one of the many pictures hanging on the wall, and after a little closer identification, Karen Pegg's face immediately changed, because she found that the person who appeared in the same picture as Colonel Skunov on the edge of the photo was the veteran they were investigating.

For a moment, Karen Page shuddered, all this was definitely not a coincidence, the person who was used as a pawn to design Frank Custer that night was not only the back of his army, but even knew his former superiors, and everyone would be suspicious.

Before they could say anything, a miniature submachine gun was already aimed at Karen Page, and now there was really nothing to say, and Colonel Ray Skunov proved himself to be the blacksmith by his actions.

In this way, everything can be explained, it is precisely because of Colonel Skunov's military status that he was able to smuggle large quantities of drugs into New York without others noticing, and it is even possible that he deliberately caused the misfortune of the Frank family, you must know that when they were in the army, their relationship was very unfriendly.

There are many details of the conflict in the park that day that are not clear, why they chose to trade in the park, why the blacksmith did not show up from beginning to end, why the identity of the police undercover agent was suddenly revealed, why there were gunshots suddenly rang out, all of this, if Colonel Skulov deliberately targeted Frank, then everything would make sense.

In the Iraqi battlefield that year, it was precisely because of Colonel Skulov's stubbornness that their assault team fell into a desperate situation, and it was because of Frank's bravery that they avoided that catastrophe, and after that, Frank received a Congressional Medal, while Colonel Skulov was severely reprimanded by his superiors, and even over the years, he has not been promoted to general, and it is because of this.

The last time he was in court, it was Colonel Skulov who said good things about Frank Custer, and proved that he was a national hero.

It is precisely because of this that everyone has let down their guard against him, but who would have thought that he would secretly use his knowledge of Frank to set up a lot of murder plans for him, not only in the first moment of Frank's escape, he sent someone to directly kill Reyes, the chief prosecutor of the New York City District Attorney's Office, and even tried to kill Frank many times.

If it weren't for some coincidental clues, I'm afraid no one would have found out that he was the mastermind behind the whole thing, a jealous heart back then, in so many years, I don't know how many deaths and injuries have been caused, people's hearts, it's too hard to guess.

Standing on the roof of this detached villa in the suburbs, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh lightly, his eyes fell on Frank Custer, who was quietly approaching the window, in fact, Frank had been secretly paying attention to Karen Pegg, secretly following her investigation.

After all, Frank is now wanted, and all the investigative resources he has are extremely limited, compared to him, Karen Page and Jessica Jones have much more investigative resources, and sure enough, they finally find out the true identity of the blacksmith.

Ling Xiao knew that tonight's incident was actually over, although Colonel Skulov held Karen Page hostage with a submachine gun, but in the end, outside the window behind him, a red-eyed Frank had quietly sneaked over, and Frank at this time would not care about Karen Page's safety.

Ling Xiao frowned, and secretly passed a word to Jessica Jones in the cabin, and the next moment, Jessica Jones had already rushed towards Colonel Skulov, and Colonel Skulov also subconsciously shot her.

A transparent energy shield suddenly appeared in front of Jessica Jones, blocking all the bullets that came at her.

Colonel Skulov, whose face changed drastically, was about to turn his gun on Karen Page, and a saber had already slashed in directly through the window behind him, and with one hand, it cut off Colonel Skurov's arm holding the miniature submachine gun, and blood immediately splashed out.

At the same time, Jessica Jones stepped forward and rescued Karen Page from Colonel Skulov.

Just as she hugged Karen Peggy and whispered to comfort her, Frank Custer just glanced at her, and then grabbed Colonel Skulov, who was missing an arm, and went to the garage of the villa.
