The turmoil caused by the death shooter ended with the arrest of Warren Patel, the CEO of Hyspel Enterprises, charged with buying homicide and using illegal means to compete in business.

Unfortunately, he became the first channel for the wealthy in Star City to vent their anger, openly assassinating business rivals, an act that aroused the hatred of the upper class, and Mr. Patel's imprisonment in Iron Mountain Prison would have been difficult.

As the fuse, Unistarch Industries was finally successfully auctioned by the Quinn Consortium, and it is expected that the asset restructuring will be carried out in a short time.

It is worth mentioning that the frequency of vigilantes appearing in the newspaper headlines has decreased significantly lately, presumably because Oliver Quinn suffered a loss at the port terminal last time and has not fully recovered.

However, the work of the Star City Police Department has not been reduced by half a point, and Detective Quentin Lance looked at the files piled up on the table, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

The atmosphere between the gangs is becoming more and more tense, and war may break out at any time, which is bound to cause huge casualties.

Originally, a vigilante was enough to give people a headache, but now there are more gangsters who make trouble.

The local shipping tycoon Martin Summers died tragically at the port terminal a few days ago, and his gang unanimously believed that the triad was secretly plotting, and the triad who had inexplicably carried the black pot naturally refused to admit it.

The two sides have been tense for a while, like a room full of powder kegs, which only needs a small spark to detonate.

Quentin Lance sighed helplessly, thinking that the city hadn't been quiet since Oliver Quinn's bastard returned!

…………

At Warehouse No. 1 at the Port of Star City, Martin Summers' henchmen were present, including Felix Cook, an accountant in charge of shipping companies' trade dealings, Joyce Turner, who controlled the gangs underneath, and Will Adams, who was in charge of handling legal disputes.

"Lawyer Anderson, we have done as you say, blaming the Triad for Mr. Summers' murder, but I don't understand why we did that?"

The white-haired Cook wondered, he was the oldest of the people in the room, having been with Martin Summers for a long time.

"It was Mr. White's decision, and instead of having the police go after the vigilantes, it would be better to create an excuse to go to war with the triads."

Lifting his glasses was lifted by a middle-aged lawyer named Kyle Anderson, one of the directors of the White Charitable Foundation.

This lawyer, who wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, neatly combed hair, and a straight suit, exudes the cultivation of an elite person.

After Martin Summers was killed, he took the initiative to take over everything, as if he were the spokesman sent by the White family.

"Only us?"

Joyce Turner asked hesitantly.

He was following Martin Summers, the lean man in a leather jacket who had been beaten unconscious by security guards at the docks and had been in the hospital for two days.

"The triads are outnumbered, and the guns and weapons in their hands are enough for them to capture the Star City Police Station......"

Turner's implication is obvious, to provoke the triad at this time is no different from looking for death.

"Of course you alone can't compete with the triads, but with Frank Portinall, the leader of the local mafia is different."

Kyle Anderson's eyes crossed with contempt, and as an international law firm named Baker McKenzie, he naturally looked down on the muscular gangsters.

What Mr. White meant was to allow himself to briefly control the remnants of Martin Summers before making a close overture to Frank Potinall.

From the very beginning, the young helmsman of that family just wanted to wipe out the underworld power of the entire Star City in one go.

"Frank Potinall will certainly not accept you directly, but Mr. Turner only needs to take Mr. Cook, the accountant, and offer the smuggling channels in the port of Star City with both hands, and then imply that Martin Summers has already taken the line of the White family, and the leader of the underworld will gladly promise to provide you with shelter."

"And after that? What should we do? ”

Kyle Anderson heard Turner's question, and a relaxed smile tugged at his lips, and he said loudly, "No after." That's all you need to do. ”

"Rest assured, Will Adams will solve the legal problems for you, and you will only have to do what Mr. White has arranged. Without Martin Summers, the triad will not let you go if you don't throw yourself into a strong backer. ”

Seeing the nervous expressions of these people, Mr. Lawyer said with a smile, his tone half reassuring and half threatening.

In the warehouse full of goods, these little people looked at each other, and their eyes were complicated.

…………

Star City Saks 5th Avenue, near the corner of the Palm Lake ghetto.

Moira-Quinn, wearing sunglasses, held an umbrella and looked left and right for a few times before getting into a black Bentley car parked under the viaduct.

"Why are you in a hurry to see me? Did Oliver sense something, or did Robert leave him something? ”

Leaning on the back seat of the car is none other than the helm of the Merlin Group, Malcolm Merlin.

This middle-aged man in his forties has a friendly smile and a demeanor of a British gentleman.

"Neither. After Oliver returned, I had someone secretly kidnap him, Tommy was there, and Robert really didn't give him the list. ”

Moira took off her sunglasses and shook her head in denial.

Oliver would never have imagined that when he first returned to Star City, the kidnappers he and his friend Tommy encountered would be quietly hired by his mother.

He would never have imagined that his mother had a relationship with Malcolm, and after realizing that her husband was cheating, Moira had a one-night stand with Malcolm, who was experiencing the loss of his wife, and Thea was the product of their mistake.

As for the sudden shipwreck, the wreck of the Gold Medal Quinn, it was Malcolm Merlin who directed it, and Moira later knew about it, but chose to keep it a secret.

"It was Leo White, the young man who wanted to revive the development plan for the Palm Lake slum, and Walter decided to support him."

Moira's eyebrows were full of apprehension, she knew what Malcolm Merlin wanted to do, destroy the Palm Lake slum, and then rebuild Star City on top of the ruins.

When Robert Quinn learned of this plan, he chose to back down and stop it, and was sent to hell by Malcolm without hesitation.

If Walter touches this red line, the fate is predictable.

Moira doesn't care about Leo White's life, but she worries about Malcolm hurting Walter.

"Developing Palm Lake? Another idealistic young man. ”

Malcolm laughed mockingly, as if remembering a bad memory, and his soft eyes sharpened.

His wife died in the slums of Lake Palm, a place that had been his haunting midnight nightmare.

Luckily, Malcolm met the Master Ninja during his travels, a true wise man who had lived a long time and had a deep understanding of the world.

It was he who freed himself from his inner fear and regained his sense of the power of life.

"I'll personally warn Leo White that if he doesn't know what to do, then I'll reunite him with Benjamin and his son."

Malcolm said lightly, leaning slightly and pulling out a sketch from his briefcase.

This is a profile portrait of the vigilante at the Star City Police Department, showing a man wearing a green hood with blurred facial features.

"This Robin Hood is the one we should be wary of."

Malcolm's voice grew colder as he named the victims who died at the hands of vigilantes, "Adam Hunter, Marcus Reedman, James Holder...... Don't you see the connection, Moira? ”

"He's not targeting the rich, he's on that list! This vigilante, follow our list on the hunt! ”

Moira is like falling into an ice cave, and there seems to be a cold aura coming from behind it, like the ghost of the dead haunting around.

That list, held only by a small group of Robert Quinn and Malcolm Merlin, and the only thing that could leak -

It was Robert, who died in the shipwreck, and Oliver, who returned five years later.
