41. History of the Hand Club
Hellfire Club.
In the private box on the top floor, Sean sat back on the sofa, soothing music wafted through the space, and the table was lined with high-end red wine and cigar boxes, even though he knew that he was not interested in them, but Wesley was still ready for everything, and I have to say that this personal assistant of Kim Ji is really a cautious and intelligent person.
Are you worried that you remember the last time the Punisher invaded? So can't wait to show yourself loyalty?
Sean smiled lightly, he didn't care about loyalty at all, that thing was like the discipline of gangsters, it was easy to be betrayed, as long as the superior maintained a strong state, then the people below naturally did not dare to be selfish, Wesley's loyalty to him was originally based on his own strong strength.
"Boss."
Wesley pushed open the door and came in, not sitting down directly, but standing in place and reporting the intelligence information he learned one by one: "Check it out, there was a shallow earthquake in Hell's Kitchen yesterday, the specific cause is not yet known, but one thing is certain, it should have something to do with the gang of the Hand, the center of the earthquake is the Midtown Circle Financial Company, radiating to the surrounding blocks - that is the company under the name of the Hand, and has cooperated with Jin and Jin before." ”
Sean nodded, pleased with Wesley's abilities, "In two hours, you'll find out everything I want to know, that's good." ”
Wesley modestly said, "The Hellfire Club is the largest intelligence gathering center in Hell's Kitchen, and brokers or middlemen who are involved in various gangs and criminal syndicates like to come here to do business, and it is very simple to know some information. ”
Sean leaned back on the sofa and thought, the Hand Club was obviously going to make a big news, yesterday's small earthquake was a harbinger before the war, and the movement was so big, wasn't it afraid of attracting the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D.?
That special agency, which is not known for the time being, should not be interested in gang fighting in New York, the thoughtful black director, at this time is probably collecting information on various superpowers, a group of uncontrolled mutants is enough to give each other a headache, how can he set his sights on Hell's Kitchen.
"What's been going on with those people I've kept an eye on?" Sean wonders what the street heroes of Hell's Kitchen are doing.
Wesley pondered his words for a moment before he spoke slowly, "Matt Murdoch, this blind lawyer, is engaged in charitable legal aid work, and there is nothing unusual about it; Ms. Jessica Jones, who recently pursued the disappearance of an architect; And Luke Cage, who has just been released from prison and is involved in the mystery of the deaths of multiple black people; As for Danny Rand, who you call him, he only came to New York yesterday ......"
"Well done, Wesley, stay tuned, be careful not to get spotted, those guys aren't ordinary people."
Sean looked at Wesley, who had always maintained a respectful attitude, with a look of appreciation in his eyes, no wonder the previous underworld emperor Jin He would be so respectful and trusting of the other party, having a subordinate who can handle all the trivial matters for you, this feeling is really cool, you don't need to do everything yourself, you just need to grasp the general direction, and other things can be handed over to the people below.
"Boss, I found out that the gang of the Hand are also keeping a close eye on Danny Rand." Wesley made another notable news.
"That gang is Danny Rand's idea, this young rich man who disappeared for more than a decade and returned to New York to inherit the family business, is not an easy identity." Sean smiled faintly, Danny Rand is a key figure in the realization of the Hand Plan, so naturally he should not be overlooked.
Facing Wesley's puzzled gaze, Sean did not shy away from saying: "When Danny Rand was a child, he followed his father in a plane crash, and after surviving by luck, he was adopted by an oriental monk and joined the 'Kunlun', and later even won the title of 'Immortal Iron Fist' and became the defender of Kunlun. ”
"Kunlun?" The first time Wesley heard the word, even though he had conducted a full investigation into Danny Rand, he didn't know that the other party had such a secret past.
"A mysterious city located in the Himalayas, it is said to exist in another dimension, and the monks who live in it believe that the human body contains ' Qi', this is the power of life itself, they want to find a way to practice and control it, so that they can strengthen themselves, but among these people there are five heretics, people with evil thoughts, these five people desire eternal life, to be able to be constantly reborn, to get rid of the fear of death, the elders of Kunlun think that this is madness, therefore, like Lucifer from heaven, those five people with different opinions are expelled......"
"These five people have become the five fingers of the Hand Clan, and they have used something they stole from Kunlun to keep themselves alive for centuries, some of them you know, such as Lady Gao, who controls the Hell's Kitchen drug business, and she is one of the five leaders of the Hand Clan."
Wesley had a shocked look on his face, if it weren't for the words coming out of Sean's mouth, he would have thought he was listening to some third-rate novel story, the hand-holding that had worked with Kim and had such a secret origin.
"The other four people, with their own different identities, such as African warlords, arms smugglers, and even the controllers of the big chaebols, all five fingers have their own territory, and they are all in New York now."
Wesley smiled bitterly and said, "Boss, if you go to be an intelligence broker, you will definitely be the top one." ”
Sean smiled slightly, foresight is probably the biggest advantage of crossing the crowd, before the trajectory of the timeline is completely disrupted by his butterfly, he has to work harder to earn rich profits, just like Frank Damiko and Kim before him, the Hand will become his next springboard, this mysterious organization with forces all over the world, has become the prey in Sean's eyes.
"The boss wants to do something to the Hand Club?" Wesley's brain was spinning fast, Sean knew the rivals in such detail, and he kept himself on the street heroes of Hell's Kitchen, it certainly wasn't something that was unintentional.
There is a saying that the enemy knows him best, and this unpredictable young boss, since he knows so well the origin and plans of the Hand, must want to attack this mysterious organization entrenched in Hell's Kitchen.
"I remember telling you a long time ago that one day I'm going to kick out the Hand Club, the Russians, the Mexican drug cartels, all of them." With a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, Sean looked at Wesley: "Emperor of Hell's Kitchen, this is my promise to you. ”
Even Wesley's city mansion, hearing Sean say this sentence himself, he couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement, he looked at the young boss with a calm face, and said sincerely: "Thank you, boss." ”
"You deserve to be rewarded for your good work, Wesley, don't limit your sights to a Hell's kitchen, the future is very promising, and there are many things in this world that you can't imagine."
Sean stood up, patted the right-hand man on the shoulder before leaving, and said, "Keep an eye on the Hand and report to me anytime if there is any news." ”
The tall figure pushed open the door and walked out, and the noisy heavy metal music, as well as the red men and green women who swayed their bodies wildly, drowned Sean in the crowd.
