8 Do things
Queens, together with Brooklyn and the Bronz District, is known as the three major slums in New York, founded in 1683, named after Queen Catherine, the wife of Charles II, located in the east of New York City, USA, is the largest and second most populous area of the five wards of New York.
In the Marvel world, the most familiar representative of Queens is not a mob boss, a politician, a police chief or a legend in the city, but the Spider-Man who lives and goes about his daily life - just like Captain America, the symbol of Brooklyn.
"Your good neighbor - Spider-Man" was also the first slogan shouted by the residents of Queens, and with the expansion of Spider-Man's scope of activities and the spread of fame, it was gradually expanded to the whole of New York.
However, at the current time, Spider-Man was born not long ago, he is still a nursing baby, the undercurrent of the Marvel world is surging, many major events are still in the brewing stage, and Queens has not transformed, it is still just a mediocre ordinary urban area, not worth mentioning.
While David was walking, he saw that most of the passers-by around him were in a hurry, with a busy attitude, and he had a different feeling about the life of this era.
At this time.
An apartment for rent in Queens.
Cross lay on the bed, picked up the photo next to the bedside table, and looked at the young boy in the photo in a daze.
More than ten years have passed, and the immature blonde boy in the photo has now become his own kind...... The Brotherhood and others did their best to train Wesley.
"Hehe, Sloane, you're really well-intentioned."
A sneer tugged at the corner of Cross's mouth, thinking of the shots Wesley fired at himself during today's operation.
The bullet the size of a peanut grain drew a graceful arc in the air, colliding with the bullet it shot in mid-air, and the sound of the two bullets shattering was heart-warming.
The image kept flashing back in his mind, and he didn't know if his previous decision to let Wesley live a peaceful life was a bad one.
It had only been twenty days since Wesley had been taken away by the Brotherhood, and becoming a qualified killer in such a short period of time showed that Wesley had fully inherited his talent, and even showed a talent that was even stronger than him.
Suddenly, he noticed that the lights of one room in the opposite building were flickering continuously, like a light bulb that had been in contact with each otherβthat was Wesley's former rental house.
At first, Cross didn't care, but soon came back to his senses.
Morse Code.
[I'm David, please contact me]
Cross stared, picked up the gun at the head of the bed, came to the window to block his body with curtains, quietly observed the opposite side, and saw an inauthentic but inexplicably familiar figure, after a while of hesitation, he took out his mobile phone, found a number, and pressed the mobile phone button.
β¦β¦
"Woooooooooo
A man and a woman were flying up into the clouds when they suddenly encountered a gunman breaking into their home, tying their hands and feet with ropes and gagging them with rags.
Dressed in a black trench coat with a raised collar and a black hood covering his face, the intruder was dressed like a bank robber, and his behavior of breaking into a house with a gun was not much different from that of a robber.
The two could only barely tell that the robber was a young white man.
They panicked but could not move, frightened and desperate, and the little woman trembled for fear that she would be insulted tonight...... It turned out that the robbers didn't even look at themselves.
After the robber controlled himself and his male partner, he pressed the light switch in the living room of the room, turned it off and on, and made the two of them look confused, and their faces were full of panic and puzzlement.
"Don't worry, I'm not a good person, but I shouldn't be a bad person either."
David noticed the frightened and frightened gazes of the two in the corner, and his expression and tone of voice were quite calm, and the two of them looked like a murderous serial killer, his heart beating faster and faster, and his heart seemed to be beating out of his chest.
"As long as you are obedient, nothing will happen tonight, and if you still have ideas, you can even continue to make villains."
David stood by the window, looking out the window while talking non-stop: "Of course, no one can say what happened today." Otherwise, it will be known that other people who come to the door are usually not as good at talking as I am. β
Bell bell bell!!
At this moment, David's mobile phone rang.
The sudden sound made the scalps of a couple of men and women in the room who were controlled by David tingle, and they felt that they were about to be killed in the next second.
David ignored the two of them.
Standing in front of the window, not too far away, he waved his hand to the people in the apartment building opposite, lowered his voice, and said hello with a smile.
"Teacher, you've been in the limelight lately, and you've put everyone in danger of the organization."
"How did you find me?"
Cross, who was on the other side of the phone, didn't mean to say hello, and his tone was a little cold: "You took refuge in Sloan? β
"I don't have a choice, if I don't, I'm the one who dies."
David's face did not change, and then he said bluntly, without concealment: "You know better than anyone who caused this result with his own hands." β
"You don't understand what Sloane did behind his back"
Cross's face was gloomy.
The phone call disrupted his original plan, and made him lose the sense of security that he had worked so hard to create these days, as if he would face a full-scale counterattack from the Brotherhood in the next moment.
Although Cross is the strongest killer of the Brotherhood, two fists are difficult to defeat four hands after all, and if the Brotherhood locks his position and launches a crowd tactic, Cross will also have only one way to die. The only uncertainty is how many lives he can take on the other side alone.
"I know that Sloan has betrayed his faith for personal gain, and the Loom of Fate has long wove his name, and it is he who has tampered with the list." David replied, "I know everything. β
"What?"
Cross's pupils shrank, David's words were unexpected, and the stunned look on his face overflowed: "How do you know?" β
"Don't forget, you're my teacher, and I'm one of the people who know you best in the world."
David said, "Not only that, but I also know that you have already made a plan to trade your life for Wesley's new life, and the fall of the Brotherhood will be a sign of Wesley's new life." β
"David, you're scaring me...... It seems like I've never really gotten to know you. β
Cross was silent for a moment, and finally said, "Since you know the truth, understand that I am right. What do you want to do? What is the significance of this call? β
"I agree with you, the Brotherhood needs to change."
David said, "In return, I'll help Wesley kill Sloan to avenge you, and you do what you want." β
"Looks like I'm going to die?" Cross's tone was low, and he instantly understood the purpose of David's phone call - Davy wanted to ascend to the throne and use Wesley to fight against the water and take control of the Brotherhood.
"Yes."
David said calmly: "Only your death can shock Wesley, and it can really make him change himself and become a worthy strong man." Most importantly, it makes our revenge easy. β
"You want to use me and make Wesley your murderous weapon? Like Sloan is doing now...... You're going to let me push my son from one pit to another with my own hands? David, do you think I'm a good bully? Or do you think I can't kill you? β
Cross clenched his fists, his voice grim, suppressing the tremendous anger of a volcanic eruption.
"It's you who caused all this. Without you, we wouldn't be where we are today. Not only did you put me in danger from Sloane, but you also put my family in danger...... I had no choice but to make everything go back to peace. β
David said lightly: "Cross, you are not the only father of the child in this world, I also have my own relatives. If you think you're doing the right thing, keep doing it, I just need a little help from you. β
"Today, even if I hadn't been involved, it would have turned out like this, because you had planned it a long time ago. I'm calling you not to threaten you, but to let you know that I'm not going to use Wesley as a weapon, and that when I take control of the Brotherhood, he'll be completely free. β
David's words calmed Cross.
"I hope you do what you say, and I'll make people stare at you." Cross was silent for a long time, and finally gave an affirmative answer.
"Of course." David breathed a sigh of relief, "I know you must have a backhand, and you won't be disappointed." β
Toot toot toot!
At the end of the call, David put down his phone and looked at a man and a woman tied up in the corner.
Although these two people are dragons, they are not nameless. One of them is Wesley's ex-girlfriend, and the other is a good brother who makes Wesley's head glow green.
Although it was the best thing to do, David didn't intend to do it, he wasn't really a ruthless killer who couldn't do it to innocents.
Today's scene, even if it is spread out, will not affect the overall situation, it does not matter...... What will happen later will definitely make the two of them keep their mouths shut and keep their mouths shut.
"Forget what I said, you know what to do."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The two looked at each other, unable to believe that the other had just left.
It wasn't until a long time later, when David didn't come back, that they completely relaxed and understood that the other party was really gone.
The two of them find a way to break free.
The woman trembled, breathing heavily, her chest heaving violently, and looked at her male companion beside her.
"Just now...... Was that person just now...... Mentioned ...... Wesley? β
"Shut up!!"
The man's face changed: "Idiot, do you want us to die?" There are so many Wesleys in this world, you don't want us to get into trouble. Move now!! Let's get out of here now, out of New York!! β
β¦β¦
"Why is Cross here?"
Wesley came to a familiar place, turned his head slightly, and looked at the house he had once rented, and his expression was a little dazed.
Beside him, Fox and the others, who were on the road with him, instantly woke up and understood the reason why Cross's safe house was here.
She glanced at Wesley with a complicated look in her eyes.
"Don't get distracted, wait until you kill Cross, you have enough time to do whatever you want." Fox clenched his pistol and said in a deep voice, "Now focus and brace yourself, the strongest killer of the Brotherhood you are about to face." β
"Understood."
Wesley nodded, distracting from distractions, and fixed his eyes on the apartment building across from his rental house.
Their goal is in this building.
