New York City Center, Four Seasons Hotel.
This is one of the highest-level hotels in New York City. It is famous for its romance and you can enjoy the most extreme service.
The crystal chandelier inherited from the 18th century, the slightly trembling tassels on the lamp, the wiped floor that reflects people's shadows, and the low hanging velvet blue curtains, this place exudes a luxurious atmosphere everywhere.
On the 52nd floor of the hotel, known as the most expensive luxury penthouse suite in the United States, guests were chatting with each other and it was bustling.
"If the speaker is repaired, let's start quickly. Everyone is already here."
The wedding host, who looked to be around 30 years old, patted the man squatting next to the speaker. This man's name was Zhou. He was said to be in charge of hotel maintenance.
"It's all done, don't worry."
Zhou patted his chest and promised with a smile. He had been lurking in for a while, and now is the time for the show to begin!
The music started playing and the wedding officially began.
The entire wedding was held in the form of a buffet party. The wedding banquet was decorated with various exquisite pastries and feasts, and guests who came to the wedding could choose at will.
Just when the atmosphere reached its highest point, a dull gunshot suddenly exploded.
Panic-stricken screams broke out one after another, and the distinguished guests fled with their heads in their hands.
"Everyone, don't move, raise your hands, squat down and hold your head, I will shoot anyone who moves!"
Fen stood on the table holding a rifle, grinning.
At the same time, outside the banquet door, Wa Long, wearing a dark green suit and holding a black gold cane, walked into the hall elegantly, attracting everyone's attention.
"Everyone, let me introduce myself first. My name is Valon, and I am the boss of the Black Hand organization!"
"You don't have to be afraid. We are just here to make money. Only money is what I want, so I hope everyone will not resist. If everyone cooperates, I will never kill anyone, but if someone is dishonest, then... It’s hard to say!”
Vallon walked onto the stage in a few steps, grabbed the host's microphone, and with a smile on his face, comforted the frightened people present.
"I have a list in my hand, and the names of everyone present are on this list, so don't think about any possibility of opportunism. Now everyone stand up and remember to raise your hands above your head."
The guests who were taken hostage tremblingly raised their hands and stood up. No one dared to say anything, and no one dared to be disobedient. They just hoped that the other party would be satisfied so that they could spend the night safely.
"What happened?"
Outside the gate, a lady in a white wedding dress burst in. This was supposed to be her home venue tonight, but unfortunately the protagonist has changed now!
"Future brides, please come on stage. Everyone else, please stand in your place and don't move."
Valon hooked his fingers and spoke leisurely while leaning on his cane. His tone was very brisk. He was in a good mood now that he was no longer troubled by that damn archaeologist.
"Stand aside quickly, hurry up, move quickly!"
Zhou and Ah Fen pointed their guns at the hostages and drove them to the designated location. Under the pressure of the guns, no one dared to resist. Some people in the crowd sobbed in fear.
"Follow one by one, hurry up, everyone lines up, come here and everyone gets a plate, and then put all their valuables on the plate."
Ah Fen walked to the dining table, picked up the white porcelain plate, and demonstrated to the friends present.
"The cash is in this ice bucket."
Zhou followed Ah Fen and placed a small flag with the word cash on it next to the ice bucket as a mark.
"Put the check here."
The second ice bucket was put down by Ah Fen.
"Put the gold jewelry here."
"Put the necklace here."
"Put the ring here."
"Other gold pens and lighters are all placed in the miscellaneous area."
After waiting for all the ice buckets to be lined up, Ah Fen held the microphone in his hand and warned.
"Everyone, listen carefully, if someone puts away valuables and wants to hide it and not hand it over..."
Rasu, who was keeping an eye on the hostages, pulled the bolt of the gun!
boom!
There was a gunshot.
The white porcelain vase on the corner of the dining table shattered.
"ah!"
Some timid women screamed in panic and subconsciously squatted down with their heads in their hands. The rest of the people were also frightened. Looking at the fierce-faced Lasu, they were so nervous that they were trembling all over.
"Boss, get ready."
After waiting for everyone to line up consciously, Ah Fen walked to Wa Long and whispered.
At this moment, Vallon was standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the night view of New York in the distance, holding red wine in his hand, slowly sipping it with a relaxed expression.
After hearing Ah Fen's words, Wa Long turned around and said, "Now that you are ready, let's get started."
…
Meanwhile, the New York City Police Department.
"What did you say? The Black Hand Gang is making big moves again!"
"Okay, I get it, we'll get there right away."
George Stacey put down the phone and immediately summoned the bureau members on duty, preparing to rush to the scene.
"Dad, what happened? Is there a case?"
In the office, Gwen Stacey looked at her father curiously. Today was a school break and she was here to deliver documents to Director George, and she happened to see this scene.
"Well, something happened at the Four Seasons Hotel. The damn Black Hand gang is causing trouble again."
Director George answered as he put on his coat.
"In the past month, many kidnapping cases and jewelry robberies in New York are related to the Black Hand gang, and the leader of the Black Hand is this man - Valon."
Director George opened a document on the desk, and Gwen poked her head in. It was a man in a dark green suit.
"For this reason, we have sent professionals to keep an eye on them, and just now the guys from the Mafia gang sneaked into a wealthy wedding banquet to commit robbery. We must not let them go this time!"
"It's really hard to tell from the photo that he is a robber, but please be careful no matter what. I'll wait for you to come back for dinner tonight, Dad."
Gwen tilted her head and looked at the photos on the table. She had seen many masked thugs, but this was the first time she had seen a gentleman robber in a suit.
"I understand, baby girl, go home and wait for me. I'll get off work soon."
George smiled and hugged Gwen goodbye, and then hurriedly left the office.
…
"Hurry up, hurry up, one by one, don't be reluctant to part with your jade necklace, put it down quickly."
Zhou constantly urged the hostages to move faster and warned them not to cause trouble.
"Honey, money is an external possession, so give it to them quickly."
"Leave it to him. At least our safety is guaranteed. I will buy it for you later."
The woman who had lost all her jewelry shed tears of grievance. The man in a suit and leather shoes next to her kept comforting her and wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue in his hand.
"Um."
The woman nodded, her mood seemed to have improved a lot.
But in the blink of an eye, the ice bucket holding the money was full and almost overflowing.
"Boss, it's a great harvest today."
"We will definitely get a large wave of [Red Jade] into our accounts tonight. Hehe, we can make money and fame at the same time."
"Come to think of it, it's been years since we've had this kind of joy."
La Su and Ah Fen gathered around Wa Long, their faces unable to conceal their excitement.
"Hey, sir, I don't have anything on me. If you don't believe me, you can search me."
At this moment, a small dispute occurred in front of the dining table where property was collected, which attracted Valon's attention. The central figure in the dispute was the young man who was pointed at a gun by Zhou.
"Come to a wedding banquet of this level, and you said you don't even have anything valuable on you. Do you think it's easy to fool me?" Zhou, who was wearing sunglasses, said disdainfully: "I'm warning you not to play tricks. Hurry up and put your clothes on." Take out the valuables and if you don't cooperate, I'll make a hole in your head."
"what happened?"
Ah Fen walked over and asked with a frown.
"This guy says he has no money."
Zhou stabbed the young man in front of him with the barrel of his gun, causing him to stumble slightly.
"The problem is that I really don't have one, sir. If you don't believe me, just look at it."
Peter Parker took two steps back, stood firm, and opened his empty pockets with a look of helplessness on his face. He was just being dragged along by Harry to join in the fun, and he was just a freeloader of food and drinks.
He really had no money, but the kidnapper in front of him didn't seem to believe it.
Peter was a little distracted. He raised his head and met Valon's eyes on the stage.
"Sir, believe me, this place has the most sensitive automatic alarm system. The New York Police Department must have received the news and arrived. The hotel will soon be surrounded from both sides. I advise you to give up."
Peter was trying to convince the other party, trying to make the elegant and easy-to-talk boss in front of him let go of the people present, including himself.
"oh?"
Looking at Peter in front of him, Valon's eyes showed some interest.
"Young people are very brave. Come on to the stage and let me talk to you."
Valon folded his hands on the black gold cane and said with a smile, "Since you said you have no money, how about you tell me how you got into this high-end wealthy wedding banquet?"
"It's me!" Before Peter could say anything, Harry Osborne stood up behind him and said, "I brought him in. I can testify that he does have no money."
"Huh?" Wallon raised his eyebrows, "Who are you?"
"Harry Osborn."
"This name..."
Wallon's eyes narrowed slightly. He always felt that he heard this surname somewhere.
"Boss, the chairman of the Osborne Group, his name is Norman Osborne. He is on the invitation list for tonight's wedding banquet."
Ah Fen glanced at the list in his hand and reminded Valon in a low voice.
"Oh? Mr. Osborne is here. Where is Mr. President?"
Valon realized that he had caught a big fish and scanned the crowd with bright eyes.
"No need to look for it. Only Peter and I came to the wedding banquet tonight. I used my father's invitation."
Norman Osborn didn't have time to attend any wedding banquet. He was busy checking out the Osborne Group's scientific research projects. It was Harry who took his father's invitation and entered the wedding banquet. As for Peter, he belonged to every invitation. Extra escort brought in!
"What a pity. I thought I could meet your father. Believe me, we will definitely get along very well."
Vallon looked pityful, and then said to Harry with a smile.
"Now let's take a look, what good things does this young master of the Osborne Group have with him?"
As he spoke, Zhou held the ice bucket in front of Harry.
"Hurry up, don't keep our leader waiting."
Harry's expression was slightly stiff. Faced with the gun pointed at his head by Ah Fen, he fumbled around for a long time before taking out a gold pen and throwing it into the ice bucket.
"Are you kidding me? If you bring a gold pen to a scene like this, your father must not love you!"
Vallon looked in disbelief, and the sarcasm in his words even more stimulated Harry's face to turn red.
"It's boring, just wait for the young master to eat a shrimp!"
Valon picked up the red wine glass, took a sip, then waved his hand and said.
"Na!"
Zhou grabbed the ice tray on the table, grabbed a chilled French blue dragon, and stuffed it into Harry's hand.
Harry glanced at Wallon and then at Fen who was pointing a gun at him. It was just a blue dragon sashimi. What kind of punishment was this.
"Humph, just eat."
Harry pinched the shrimp head and just pulled it off, but before peeling it off, he heard Valon add at this time.
"I'll let you eat the shell!"
"you!"
Harry moved his hands and his face turned red, but he didn't dare to break out.
"Didn't you hear what our leader said?" Ah Fen hit Harry on the head with the barrel of his gun, completely ignoring the angry look in his eyes and staring at him with a fierce expression, "Eat!"
"snort!"
Harry stuffed the blue dragon shell into his mouth, gritted his teeth and chewed it hard, staring at Valon, as if he wanted to remember his appearance.
"The eyes are good, just remember to bring more valuables next time you go out."
Valon said nonchalantly.
At this moment, the roar of propellers sounded outside the window, and searchlights shot directly into the room. George, who finally arrived at the scene, was shouting with a loudspeaker.
"Walong of Black Hand, you have been surrounded. Release the hostages immediately and capture them without mercy!"
"Capture without mercy?"
Vallon put down the red wine glass in his hand and turned around with the black gold cane, as if walking on a red carpet filled with lights and applause.
"Oh, no, Director George, if I were you, I wouldn't say that. Besides, you remind me of an old acquaintance, Chief Black of District 13, the bald one!"
"You're just as boring as him."
Vallon shrugged.
"Area 13?"
George frowned, thinking about the information revealed in Valonne's words.
"Hey, Zhou, La Su, Ah Fen, are you ready?"
Valon turned to look at his three men.
At this time, the latter had packed all the jewelry in the ice bucket, and the three of them were carrying huge packages with bulging bags.
"Boss, you can leave at any time."
Ah Fen grinned.
"very good."
Vallon nodded slightly and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at Director George and the night view of New York outside the window. Under the blazing white lights, he was like the most dazzling central figure on the stage!
"Not only are there no lame old men, no annoying little brats, and no that damn archaeologist, but I still have the Holy Lord!"
"Oh, I love this wonderful world!"
In the dark corner of the banquet, the masked black warrior slowly poked his head out, and Valon smiled cheerfully, "It's time to leave now!"
