Quinn Mansion.

Oliver, who has returned to modern society, stands by the window and looks out at the dark night.

Heavy rain, lightning and thunder, and bad weather reminded him of his difficult life on the "Purgatory Island".

Five years ago, Oliver was still a gentleman who did not learn or know, with his outstanding family background and handsome appearance, wandering among the flowers, capturing the ignorant hearts of many ignorant girls, and he can be described as a model of a playboy.

At that time, he was contented to indulge in the absurd life, looking for fun to his heart's content, and he didn't know the cruelty of his future fate.

Until the day the unexpected came-

One day during the summer vacation, Oliver, who dropped out of school in the Ivy League, and his father went out on a cruise ship and unfortunately encountered a shipwreck.

The storm swept through everything, and the stormy waves swallowed up the lives of the crew in an instant.

Oliver, who has been smooth sailing in his life for more than 20 years, panicked, but what happened next made him completely face his cold and cruel fate.

Father and him, along with a crew member, were adrift on the sea for two whole days.

With a lack of food and fresh water, and little hope of survival, fear spreads.

Robert Quinn, the famous Star City tycoon, who single-handedly took the Quinn Consortium to a higher level, made a decisive choice.

"Father's ......"

Oliver pushed the window open, and the icy water beads hit the windowsill, splashing into a cool mist.

The scene of his father shooting the crew and then shooting himself again haunted him like a lingering nightmare.

All this is to keep yourself alive!

Oliver drifted on a life raft, relying on the little food and fresh water, to an island called Purgatory.

That island was also Oliver's purgatory, where he was tormented!

Fierce beasts, cruel environments, tense nerves all the time, if you are not careful, sudden illness or untreated wounds will quietly take your life.

After adapting to the urban life of steel and concrete, human beings have returned to the cold and unforgiving nature, and have become the existence at the bottom of the food chain.

Oliver has gone through a series of changes and cruel encounters, and finally returns to modern society, to his family and friends.

"But everything seems to have changed......

Oliver's brow furrowed.

He could perceive the intimacy between Walter and his mother, the evasive glances that his friend Tommy sometimes looked at him, and it seemed as if everyone had secrets that they couldn't be honest.

Even Oliver himself, he's the same!

He's no longer the same Oliver Quinn, the drunken and drunken gentleman!

His father said he had been forced to do something that failed the city.

Like those capitalists, they stand proudly above the heads of the people, squeezing wealth out of their efforts and toils.

So Oliver does everything he can to return to Star City, trying to redeem and make up for his father's mistakes, and is ready to save it in his own way.

"I'm sorry, I thought I still had time...... I'm not like you think, I didn't build our city well, I failed it! Although I'm not the only one! ”

From his father's confessional words, Oliver vaguely felt that there seemed to be a thick haze hanging over Star City, like a huge dark cloud that could not be entangled.

It is precisely because of this that he wants to bring hope and light to the people of this city!

A judge who can send those who commit crimes to a prison cell!

A vigilante who walks in the dark, unknown!

A hunter who can make villains fearful!

"That person is me."

The storm poured into the warm room, and Oliver knew that the path would be difficult, but he had no choice.

He wants to know the truth behind it, and only in this way will he live up to his father's sacrifice and his second life!

Five years have passed in a flash, and so much has happened on that island.

He had reliable companions, as well as genuinely beloved and respected teachers.

But now everything has turned to smoke and gone with the wind.

"My name is Oliver Quinn, my only wish for five years was to live, and now I'm going to fulfill my father's last wish and save the city!"

"For this, I had to be something else! Another existence! ”

Lightning pierced the dark clouds, blazing light illuminated the heavens and the earth, and a man covered in scars stood by the window, his eyes full of determination.

He pulled out a palm-sized notebook from the wooden box he had brought in, its brown skin old and mottled.

There are names recorded in it, all of whom are powerful and wealthy people in Star City.

They are also cold-blooded capitalists and outlaws, who are responsible for the city's degeneration.

"Martin Summers!"

Oliver's gaze rested on the name on the first page.

…………

The torrential rain poured down like a torrent, like a hole in the sky.

A black sedan was parked on the dock at the port of Star City, and Pierpont was the first to get out of the car, holding an umbrella in one hand and pulling the back door open with the other.

Leo was still dressed as an old-fashioned gentleman, with a black tweed coat, a neat three-piece suit, and a silver cane.

Bean-sized raindrops smashed on the ground, and after the powder was shattered, a mist splashed and blurred the figures of the two.

"Mr. White, Mr. Summers is waiting for you at Warehouse One."

Seeing the dock keeper who answered, the corners of Leo's mouth twitched, and he motioned for the other party to lead the way in front.

At midnight, the port wharf was quiet except for the crackling raindrops, and nothing else.

Mountains of containers, a row of huge freighters moored and unmoving, Leo walked in them, and soon came to warehouse No. 1.

"Mr. White, I'm sorry to let you go for yourself......"

Martin Summers laughed and walked over, a middle-aged man with a short beard, of medium stature, with piercing eyes and a ferocity that seemed to be absent.

He is the famous underworld boss in Star City, a shipping tycoon who is making money every day on the surface, but secretly he has a close relationship with the triad.

Martin Summers used his shipping company to make huge profits from the gangster's long-term illegal smuggling.

He has several gangs under his hands, and there are at least hundreds of thugs and gangsters combined, and he has a lot of friends with several prosecutors in Star City, so he can be said to be the number one person in black and white.

But apparently, this Mr. Summers is not satisfied with the status quo.

Although he has assets and the gangster power he controls in private, it is enough for him to live a good life and go in and out of rich places without worry.

But for Martin Summers, there is still one thing missing.

Status.

Rich but not powerful, but just nouveau riche.

The gap between Summers and Star City's entrenched giants is probably that if he is caught smuggling, the most he can do is to throw money at the prosecutor and hire a team of professional lawyers to try to get away with it.

And if the direct blood relatives of the Quinn, Merlin and White families commit crimes, they don't need to come forward in person, and they can get the judge and jury to agree from top to bottom to ensure their innocence.

For Summers, the law is a red line that cannot be crossed, and needs to be carefully avoided and circumvented.

But in the eyes of the real big guys, they are just ordinary tools that can be tampered with and interpreted at will.

"Actually, when I heard that you had scheduled this meeting for the evening, I wanted to refuse, I don't like to sneak around like a thief! But given the affection between Mr. Summers and Uncle Anthony, I was still willing to sacrifice a little after-dinner time. ”

Leo stood in the middle of the warehouse, speaking in a calm and powerful voice.

The big, burly, fierce-looking villains and thugs who were gathered in the warehouse seemed like a ball of air to him, and they had no sense of existence.

"I've heard the sad news about Anthony, and who would have thought that he would have an accident on the way home...... The car fell off a cliff, which was terrible. ”

Summers' smile froze and his attitude became more respectful.

"The main reason why I asked you to meet here is to show my strength and prove that I will be a great partner to work with. Mr. White, I alone occupy one-fifth of the business in the port of Star City, and the freighters moored at the docks, and the containers piled up like hills......"

"I'm sorry to interrupt you, but Mr. Summers, are you sure you want to say this in front of me?"

Leo's face was full of helplessness, it was really a gathering of likes, and the gang leader who mixed with Uncle Anthony could count on the other party's intelligence.

Does he even know who he's talking to!?

Martin Summers was stunned, he didn't understand why Leo was interrupting him.

"Maybe Uncle Anthony didn't tell you that at the beginning of the port of Star City, Mr. Paine, the maritime director of the port of star, proposed at a meeting of the Port Authorities Association to work together between private developers and public institutions to modernize the infrastructure of the port area, for which the city government allocated 200 million US dollars, and the remaining personal investment and private funds, a total of 300 million US dollars, all provided by my father's kindness."

"Perhaps he didn't even say that Mr. Parker of the Port Authority has always been a guest of the White family, and the Coast Guard, whose supreme commander is Commander Max, the four-star general appointed by the president and approved by the senators, his surname is 'White.'"

Leo looked at Martin Summers, who was drenched in a cold sweat, and his tone did not fluctuate in a single bit.

That's why he didn't take Uncle Anthony, who was trying to usurp power, into account, from beginning to end.

Lions never care about jackals, even when they come in packs.
