Chapter 478:
The speakeasy was only two streets away from Piero's bar, and it only took 20 minutes to walk to it, so Erica didn't choose to call a taxi and walked to the door of Piero's bar alone. As she had planned, she had to put on a contemptuous attitude from the start, which would make her opponents even more contemptuous. After all, there is no point in putting the score, but it will give the opponent a sense of bluff. Then the final results are quite more than worth the loss. So, she wouldn't have made such a low-level mistake.
Sure enough, the two guards guarding the door were angry at Erica's contemptuous act of coming on foot, they both knew that their opponent's leader was coming tonight, but they didn't expect it to be such a one-handed meeting. What does this mean? It shows that Erica didn't take them seriously, which made them angry and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, what arrogance!
The guard on the left was about to teach Erica a lesson, but was stopped by the one on the right, and saw that the one on the right shook his head lightly when he turned his head in confusion, signaling that he should not act rashly before the meeting, so as not to attract the vigilance of the other party.
And Erica, who looked at the looks of the two guards in her eyes, couldn't help but sneer secretly, and at the same time was inexplicably a little vigilant in her heart, the unusualness of the opponent meant that what she would experience in the future was also unusual, so the other party may have prepared some means for her own arrival alone, so she must be extremely careful, otherwise a little carelessness is the possibility of no return.
Erica sneered past the two guards, but when she entered the bar, she didn't hear any loud rock 'n' roll, but was silent. A man who seemed to be the manager of the bar respectfully approached her and asked, "But Miss Erica?" Our boss has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me! With that, he bowed and waved his hand lightly.
Under the gesture of the manager, Erica pretended to follow behind the manager, and then entered the private room of the bar, twisting and turning, and what appeared in front of her was a room named 406. She Shi Shiran pushed the door in, and saw a perverse young man sitting on the sofa with a playful expression, obviously he had been waiting for a long time, and the person who was waiting was her.
The manager quietly closed the door after Erica entered. At the moment, only Erica and Piero were left in the room. The two of them looked at each other for a while, both looking at each other, from the first sense, they both saw that it was not the person they knew, and then the vigilance in their hearts began to slowly ferment. It became more intense than before, and at the same time, he secretly said in his heart that his thoughts were really right, the other party must have a prepared backhand, so there must be no accidents on this trip today!
In the middle of the ring, Piero, as the host, was the first to speak, "Please be seated, Miss Erica!" He raised his hand and made a please.
Erica sat down slowly, not saying a word. There doesn't seem to be much of a nature to talk nonsense with Piero, and the disdain is very obvious.
So. Piero dissipated the original vigilance in his heart again, because Erica is now behaving the same as she thinks, so there is no doubt that this woman is indeed what she thinks, an arrogant woman. Thinking of this, he also knew how to have a conversation with Erica, and he smiled lightly. "I guess this is the first time we've met, right?" Miss Erica? But although it's the first time we've met, I've been friends with you for a long time! I've always wanted to see what kind of woman is the woman who can take my territory, and now it seems. It seems like an exaggeration......"
Hearing this, Erica secretly sneered, and her face was furious, "What do you mean by this guy?" You still have the face to look down on me? You're just a loser, a waste man, and you're qualified to say I'm exaggerating? I think you're the real exaggeration, right? The people of the Tao say, "You are a rare and strong person." The result? But I was beaten by a woman alone and didn't have the slightest power to fight back. So now, do you think it's your own exaggeration, or me? ”
After a mess, Piero's face was pale, but he secretly sneered in his heart, and sure enough, just as he thought, this Erica is indeed the kind of person who has courage and no strategy, so his plan is undoubtedly very effective. There is no explanation for what she is doing now other than to kill herself. He could finally rest assured that he didn't need to use a pre-plan. Because in his eyes, Erica no longer poses any threat to him. A wise woman might be able to make him wary. But an arrogant woman, he will not take it to heart, because as the saying goes, if heaven wants to destroy it, it must first make it crazy.
"If Miss Erica is of that kind, then I don't think there seems to be much to say between us. Not even a single sarcasm can be tolerated, so what qualifications do you have to be the head of half of Manhattan? Piero smiled disdainfully, he had already begun to try to provoke Erica, once he provoked her to do it, then he would be able to give the other party a normal death in the open, and then what he had lost would return to his side, and he would not have to endure the harsh criticism from the club. This time, maybe Magneto was able to keep him, but what about next time? Can you still be so free?
You must know that the current Brotherhood is not monolithic, and it is no longer the time when Magneto was in charge of the family in the past, but now it belongs to Magneto and others to control the Brotherhood, and the Brotherhood is not Magneto alone, so his existence can be said to be beaten into Magneto's faction, and the people of the other faction can be said to be unlucky for themselves, and then they will squeeze him out openly.
The reason why he wants to make a move on Erica so soon can be said to account for the vast majority, because he doesn't want to live this kind of precarious life, he must have a score to consolidate his position, so Erica is his stepping stone.
However, Piero seemed to have miscalculated, and wanted to provoke Erica to do it in a few words, which was definitely an impossible thing, she was not angry, but very calm, and after two sentences, the anger on her face suddenly dissipated. Then, under Piero's stunned gaze, he said slowly: "You are right, anger cannot make me the leader of Manhattan. ”
Piero was not wary of Erica's regaining composure, but rather laughed a little angrily, this woman is really weird, she has not yet failed, and she has already begun to claim to be the leader of the underground forces in Manhattan? What does this woman mean? When you're already dead? Or did you not put the fraternity in your own eyes? This ordinary human female is just a small ant, and with the slightest movement of her mind, the scorching flames can instantly burn it to ashes!
"Miss Erica, are you overconfident? Think you can become an underground leader in Manhattan? Do you really think of yourself as a character? If you know each other, you'd better hand over all the territories you have annexed to me, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless, and whether you can get out of this door at that time is still a matter of words! Erica was not angry, but Piero himself was angry first, and this face-tearing speech already showed that he was about to have a battle with Erica.
Erica sneered when she heard this, "I really just think of myself as a character, no one in Manhattan dared to disobey you in the past, but now? You're just a lost dog of mine at best. As a loser, what do you have to say? So, I advise you not to know the sky and the earth, and want to compete with me, you are not qualified enough! ”
In a word, Piero's anger came out after a while, and he saw him get up, with a strong anger on his face, and the slightest flame began to emerge from his skin, and there was a tendency to see his body devouring in an instant.
Those who knew Piero well knew that it was a time for him to be extremely angry, and there was no guarantee that he would not do anything terrible. Even, under such an aura, even Erica's complexion changed slightly, and she didn't expect her opponent to have such strength.
However, under this tense breath, a voice suddenly came into Piero's ears, "Have you forgotten our previous agreement?" You said you were going to provoke someone, but what I'm seeing now is not that you're provoking people, it's that you're being provoked! Could it be that you have such a little energy? Not even a woman's? If that's the case, then all I can say is that I'm too disappointed in you. Because people like you don't deserve Eric's attention at all......"
This voice made Piero's heart startle, and the anger was extinguished in an instant without a trace of residue, and he sat down slowly, his expression became calmer than before, "I didn't expect Miss Erica to wear such a disguise." Pretending to be an arrogant and domineering woman, but in fact she is scheming, even I am unconsciously irritated by your words. ”
Erica was secretly shocked when she heard this, and at the same time felt incredible that Piero could suppress her anger in that situation, obviously she looked ready to make a move just now, but now she suddenly became so calm? This seems to be somewhat unusual.
But no matter how doubtful she was in her heart, Erica finally sneered and was unforgiving, "You're really wrong, I'm so arrogant, because I don't think there's any problem with talking to a loser like this!" (To be continued.) )
