ten minutes later.
Baker and the red devil, who always wore a long black suit, was polite, and even had a somewhat affable face, sat in a private room-like room at the [Intercontinental Hotel].
The equipment used to detect monitors or listeners above the room is always green.
"Bourbon?" Baker raised the bourbon in his hand and looked at the Red Devil sitting opposite.
This man is a legend in the dark side.
Red Devil, whose real name is Raymond Reddington. Fifteen years ago, this man was once the most valuable and powerful federal agent in the FBI. He could be said to have unlimited fame, but suddenly, this man He gave up everything and ran to the dark side. After fifteen years, he gained the honorary title of Red Devil and "Gatekeeper of the Criminal World".
Put it this way.
The Red Devil also knows things that the ordinary world knows, and the Red Devil can also know things that the ordinary world doesn't know.
This includes the Templars' shadow company, Abstergo Industrial Pharmaceuticals!
Abstergo Industries is one of the largest and most powerful multinational companies today. Its popularity is not lower than that of Stark Industries. It is just because of its low profile and high profile, so it is not well known.
What is unknown here is its popularity among the melon-eaters, rather than other aspects. In fact, Abstergo Industrial Pharmaceuticals can be said to be a giant in the pharmaceutical industry.
The information that Baker wants to buy from the Red Devil this time is very simple. He wants to know the current progress of Abstergo Industrial Pharmaceuticals' [Animus Project].
The Animus Project, on the surface, is a set of virtual reality equipment manufactured by Abstergo Industrial Pharmaceuticals. In fact, it is a device developed and designed to find the third Apple of Eden.
Can read its user's genetic memory and project it into a three-dimensional world.
Baker had been to Seville Cathedral five years ago, but there was no Apple of Eden in the tomb.
So Baker thought at the time that changes in the world had led to a different story. Apple No. 3 was not placed in the tomb by Callum Lynch, but had always existed on Tiber Island in the League of Assassins.
but now?
After reading the diary left by Sloan at noon, Baker suddenly had an immature idea.
Schrodinger's cat!
Perhaps the Apple of Eden No. 3 has always been in the tomb of Seville Cathedral, but due to time or other factors, it was not seen by Baker.
After all, Apple No. 3 was exposed because Alan Rikin found it from the genetic memory of Callum Lynch’s genetic descendants through the [Animus Project], and then took it out from the Seville Cathedral. of.
so……
If you want to confirm the time when Apple No. 3 appeared, then you must confirm whether Alan Riggin has found the descendant now.
Baker is determined to win Apple No. 3. After all, this is the Self-Gem, the first of the Infinity Stones.
What?
Maybe Baker didn't look carefully at that time?
This is impossible.
Baker was very sure that his memory would not be wrong. Of course, just in case, Baker had already planned to find time to go to the Seville Cathedral in Spain to confirm it after getting the information.
Right now it's just a matter of planning for a rainy day.
soon.
Baker poured the Red Devil a glass of bourbon and then took out five volumes from his arms. Each volume had an intelligence fee of one hundred gold coins and said, "Where is the information I want."
The Red Devil laughed.
The sound is very high resolution.
"My friend, I won't charge for this information." The Red Devil said to Baker with a kind smile.
Baker smiled slightly: "I like to buy with money."
Again.
There is not so much friendship in the adult world, especially the friendship that is obtained for nothing. Sometimes, free friendship is far more expensive than paid friendship.
This is an unchanging truth from ancient times.
Therefore, Baker very much hopes to use this gold coin worth 750,000 US dollars to directly complete the transaction with the Red Devils in both money and goods.
but.
The Red Devil shook his head with a smile on his face: "I insist, my friend."
Baker looked at the Red Devil, who was still smiling, but behind the seemingly good-natured smile, Baker sighed inwardly.
Ten seconds later.
Baker put the five rolls of gold coins back into his pocket and drank the bourbon in front of him in one gulp: "I should have known earlier that if you agreed so readily, it meant that this matter was far from smooth."
Theoretically speaking, if Baker wants to investigate Abstergo Industrial Pharmaceuticals, there are many ways to do it.
But what Baker wants to investigate is the [Animus Project]. There is currently no news about this project on the surface. If Baker investigates, there is no doubt that it will attract the attention of the Templars.
Of course.
Maybe the Templars have noticed him now. After all, Baker is the only survivor of the textile factory.
However, the black-haired Baker was noticed. The left and right vests were just vests. At worst, he would just need another one.
But not the blond Baker.
Baker's public identity is that of a well-known Wall Street investor.
"Tell me." Baker put down the glass of wine and said to the Red Devil without a good expression: "What help do you need from me?"
Baker had serious doubts that the Red Devils knew something.
After all, he called the Red Devil at around one o'clock in the afternoon to trade Abstergo Industrial Pharmaceuticals' information, but ten minutes later, the Red Devil called directly to say that he was ready.
How can this not raise serious doubts?
The Red Devil looked at Baker's undisguised eyes and laughed and said: "My friend, that is virtual reality technology. My appraiser has given an appraisal worth hundreds of billions. With such technology, I How could you not pay attention?"
Beck frowned.
The Red Devil then shook his head and said: "It's just that I originally thought that the guy who specifically asked me to buy Stark Industrial Technology would ask me for an inquiry immediately. I didn't expect that you would be the first one to come over and inquire with me. , and I only received this news half a month ago, how did you know?"
Baker had hidden doubts in his heart, and then interrupted directly and said: "Okay, how can you give me the information?"
He didn't spend the entire Northeast time in the Seville Cathedral in Spain, checking inside the coffin once a day.
The Red Devil said: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I have an old buddy who may have something happen to him recently."
Baker raised his eyebrows and looked at the Red Devil: "If it's the one I'm thinking of, then you're just thinking nonsense, Red Devil."
Do you really think he has no other clues except Abstergo Industrial Pharmaceuticals?
He also has news about Callum Lynch, who he remembers as a descendant of Magneto.
only……
Baker forgot the guy's full name.
