eight pm.
Continental Hotel.
Before heading to the hotel, Russell finally killed the gun-wielding Juggernaut and cleared the entire game.
In a happy mood, he drove his Porsche to the Continental Hotel.
Charon, in a crisp suit, was still at the front desk.
"Is Winston here?"
Russell asked Charon.
"Here we are, in the restaurant."
Charon looked at Russell and answered in a professional tone that could not find any fault.
Nodding towards Charon, Russell walked directly towards the restaurant.
Although it is dinner time, there are not many customers in the restaurant.
Upon arriving at the dining room, he saw Winston and Kingpin.
Winston still looked that gentle and elegant, talking to Kingpin in a low voice.
Kingpin sat across from Winston, nodding from time to time.
"Here, let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Wesker, also known as the famous Mr. Kingpin."
After seeing Russell arriving, Winston stood up directly and introduced to Russell.
In fact, there is no need for him to introduce him. Seeing Kingpin's unusual body shape, you can know that he is Kingpin himself.
Standing 2 meters tall and weighing 200 kilograms, Jinpin looks like a little giant.
Just looking at his body shape, he is almost twice as thick as Russell.
"Hello, I'm Russell!"
Russell said to Kingpin who also stood up.
Although Kingpin looked a little serious, he took the initiative to extend his right hand and shook hands with Russell.
After the introduction, the three of them sat down separately.
"I wanted to meet you a year ago, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't have this opportunity until now."
Kingpin looked Russell up and down and spoke first.
"It's not too late to meet, isn't it?"
Russell didn't mind Kingpin's scrutiny.
When they shook hands just now, Kingpin had the idea of testing him.
But for some reason, Kingpin finally gave up on this plan and just shook hands with him normally.
However, Jinpin's little move of trying to exert force but then giving up was still noticed by him.
"That's right, it's not too late to get to know each other now."
Jin was not as unruly as the outside world rumored, and his tone was not oppressive at all.
If he hadn't looked so serious, maybe he could have taken the gentle route like Winston.
In the following time, Jin did not talk to Russell about any serious topics at all. They were just like new friends, talking in a friendly and easy-going way.
Since Kingpin didn't intend to take the initiative to reveal his purpose, Russell didn't bother to ask him.
Even if he doesn't say it now, he will say it later, so don't be too anxious.
Russell was chatting with Kingpin while enjoying the top-quality Kobe steak from Neon Country in front of him.
He had eaten many meals in the hotel restaurant, but he never remembered that the hotel restaurant would offer such top-notch steaks.
The burnt brown surface and the magical texture of alabaster marble look even more charming against the backdrop of oil.
The rich but not greasy aroma of the meat has already begun to arouse the diners' sense of smell and taste buds before they even take it into their mouths.
Use a delicate knife to gently cut it open, insert a small piece and put it in your mouth.
The meat is tender and soft, with a refreshing texture, plump and juicy.
Melts in your mouth!
High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods. After a busy day (forging iron), Russell began to experience the taste bud enjoyment brought by Kobe steak.
Simple cooking method, original and delicious taste.
It was obvious that these Kobe steaks were either Winston's personal stock or specially arranged by the Kingpin.
Top quality Kobe steak, Romanee-Conti in 1974.
A perfect match!
Although there are not many ingredients on the table, you can see that they have been carefully prepared.
At least Russell was satisfied with his meal.
Drinks and cups were exchanged, chatting and laughing.
If you only look at the surface, you can't tell at all that the underworld emperor, the top killer, and the manager of the killer hotel are sitting on this table.
When the waiter in the restaurant took away the plates, cutlery, etc., Kingpin looked at Russell with a complicated expression, as if he was considering whether to talk to him about business.
Russell saw Kingpin's strange expression and didn't say anything. He just picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Although the 1974 Romanee-Conti is a rare wine.
But to be honest, he didn't taste anything particularly unique.
Kingpin also picked up the wine glass.
However, he did not take a sip like Russell, but drank the blood-like wine in the glass in one gulp.
After putting down the wine glass, he said slowly: "I have a commission here. I wonder if you are interested?"
"What commission?" Russell also put down his wine glass.
"I want something, and I want you to get it for me."
"what?"
"keel!"
When he said the word keel, Jin Bin's expression became extremely serious.
keel?
Russell looked at Kingpin with some confusion.
Of course he knows what a keel is.
But the question is, what does the Kingpin want the keel to do?
This guy also wants to be an immortal monster?
"What is the dragon bone?"
Russell pretended not to know anything and said slowly.
"Dragon bones are the bones of a divine dragon. You are a flower grower, so you should know what a divine dragon is."
"Sorry, I have only heard of the existence of dragons in myths and legends."
At this time, Russell showed extremely superb acting skills, as if he really didn't know anything.
"I can tell you clearly now that the dragon is real and has the same extraordinary abilities as in myths and legends."
"I know where the dragon bone is, but my men can't get it back."
"If you can get it back, I can give you an absolutely generous reward."
King did not directly say where the keel was, nor what the specific reward would be.
In fact, even if he didn't say it, Russell knew where the keel was.
Kunlun, The Hand, New York Underground.
First of all, Kunlun can be ruled out directly.
Even if Jin Bin knew the existence of Kunlun, it was absolutely impossible to know the specific location of Kunlun.
Then there are only two options left: The Hand and the New York Underground.
Russell knew that the dragon bones were buried somewhere under New York, but he didn't know exactly where.
The Hand seems to be looking for these dragon bones as well, but I wonder if they have any specific information.
Judging from what Kingpin just said, most of the dragon bones he knew were those held by the Hand.
Although Kingpin is the emperor of the underworld, he is an overlord that cannot be ignored in the New York underworld.
But the Hand is not a soft persimmon.
On the surface, the Hand is just a group of crazy killers adhering to ancient traditions.
You can also be considered a peer with Russell!
But in fact, the Hand is an out-and-out extraordinary organization.
From the perspective of extraordinary abilities, the Hand's extraordinary purity is even higher than that of Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. combined.
After all, the Hand is really dealing with demons from other dimensions.
