fortunately.
After Baker and Barbara spent five days in a famous mountain hot spring in the island country, they boarded the plane and flew back to New York under the flattering smile of the island country's S.H.I.E.L.D. Director.
actually……
Not only was the SHIELD director of the island nation relieved, but Baker was also secretly relieved.
Because every time he went out in the past, as long as it was anywhere other than the Eastern Kingdom, some small things would happen that might not be big or small in Baker's eyes, but were a bit big in others' eyes.
Frankly speaking, before Baker came to the island country, he was already prepared to face a series of terrifying plots such as "The Grudge" and "Sadako".
but……
It was calm, which surprised Baker, or was it that Kayako and Miwako knew that their levels were too different from his, so they didn't dare to show up?
All in all, it was a pleasant holiday.
That was true for Beck, and the same was true for Barbara.
It's just that Barbara has a little regret in her heart.
When she promised to play with the fox's tail the night before yesterday, she was just one step away from finding out the only little secret Baker kept from her. Unfortunately, she failed in the end.
This made Barbara a little annoyed, and she was no longer interested in enjoying the scene of the cherry blossoms blooming on Mount Fuji yesterday.
January 4th, New York time.
The Gulfstream special plane of Tianguo Investment Group arrived at New York's John F. Kennedy Airport at around 10 a.m.
"Bye, Beck!"
"Goodbye, Uncle Morton!"
With a smile on his face, Baker sent Richard Castle and his daughter Alexis, who were going to the hot springs in the island country with them, into the car. Then he turned to Barbara next to him and said, "Where are you going?" ?”
Barbara thought for a moment and said, "I have to go back to the center, what about you?"
Baker smiled: "Go to heaven. Do you want to see it?"
Five days have passed on earth, and Vivian has moved the newborn angels who temporarily lived on Pandora to the angel star in the heaven dimension.
However, Andy, who went to the universe to search for the lost angels, has not come back yet, and Sera, the daughter of Sky Blade Six, who also went to find the angel queen Angel, has not come back either.
Baker plans to go take a look.
Barbara nodded, urging her like an old couple: "Come back soon."
The heavenly dimension was left to Sera by Baker.
Barbara wouldn't want it.
Similarly, Barbara doesn't want to go there if it's not necessary. This is not a matter of jealousy, but a matter of principle. Some things should be separated early to avoid being caught off guard in the future.
Baker laughed and then nodded.
The next second.
Just as Baker was about to enter [Incoming Void] and start teleporting, the phone belonging to Baker Morton in his arms rang.
Officer George Stacey's?
Baker raised his eyebrows and answered.
After a while.
Baker said, "I'll be there soon," and then hung up the phone.
Barbara looked at the look on Baker's face, confirmed that the earth was not in crisis yet, but needed to be more vigilant, and then asked aloud: "What's wrong?"
Baker frowned: "Camille was arrested by the New York Police Department."
"Camille?"
"My secretary!"
"Oh, it's rumored on Wall Street that the only Queen of Blades, Sofia Camille, can stand shoulder to shoulder with Pepper Potts?"
"..."
Baker frowned: "Queen of Blades, what the hell is this?"
Barbara shrugged her shoulders, and as she and Beck walked towards the SHIELD car that was driving not far away, they shared some of the past scandals circulating in New York with Beck.
Pepper Potts, the personal secretary of Stark Group Chairman Tony Stark, has never been down since he took office. From the beginning of Little Transparent to the current Little Pepper, there are rumors on Wall Street that he wants to meet. When it comes to Tony Stark, if you are not a woman, and you are not a very beautiful woman, then the only chance to meet Tony Stark is Pepper Potts.
same.
Sophia Camille, the secretary of Tianguo Investment Group, is not bad either. People on Wall Street are generally not of the same level. If you want to meet Baker Morton, you must first get through Camille.
Especially some time ago, well-informed people knew that Tianguo Investment seemed to have formed a small circle with Rockefeller, the top power on Wall Street. Sophia Camille had recently made frequent moves on behalf of Tianguo Investment Group. Therefore, people on Wall Street sent A title was given to Sophia Camille.
Queen of Blades!
As for where this title comes from, just look at Sofia Camille's legs.
Baker chuckled, then shook his head helplessly: "Humans can't do anything right. They give them nicknames and say they are second. No other race dares to say they are number one."
Thanos, the director of the Universal Family Planning Office, who gave him this nickname?
Earthling.
I'm a ball-egg, who gave me this nickname?
Still from Earth.
so……
Although they were named after another Earth, they are all from Earth, so there is nothing wrong with this sentence.
soon.
In front of the New York Police Department.
Baker got out of the car, then glanced at Barbara who came down with him: "Aren't you going back to the center?"
"Plans changed."
"How to say."
"If Camille's evidence is conclusive, will you sit back and do nothing?"
"Won't!"
Sophia Camille is his secretary and his person. As long as he can teach him a lesson, others are not so qualified. Killing someone is nothing. At most, Baker will only tell Camille to be careful next time he kills someone.
Barbara shrugged: "That's it, can you ask the New York Police Department to let him go?"
Baker chuckled and said, "I have money, a lot of money!"
Barbara glanced at Baker: "Litigation will take a long time."
Baker: "..."
In the New York Police Department.
"Mr. Morton!" Officer George Stacey came out, shook hands with Baker, and then looked at Barbara next to Baker.
Barbara reached for her ID and showed it: "FBI."
George Stacey was slightly stunned, while Baker shrugged and said, "Sorry, I was with my girlfriend just now, so it won't cause any trouble to Officer Stacey."
George came back to his senses: "No, please come with me."
In fact.
Not only was George not bothered, he was also secretly relieved.
Baker Morton is the financial backer of the New York Police Department, and he is also the largest financial backer. Especially after Baker collected countless amounts of money during that turmoil, his donation to the New York Police Department also reached a higher level.
Look at this brand new computer.
Look at this brand new coffee machine.
Look at this brand new girl...
Ahem!
But what about now?
The New York Police Department arrested the secretary of their biggest financial backer. What was it trying to do?
Do you feel that the good times have gone too long, and you plan to live a miserable life where a recruitment reception is held every quarter, and the police officers appear on stage and act as clowns just to make the rich people in the audience happy and donate a little pocket money?
No.
This is definitely impossible. Not only George Stacey was unwilling, but even most New York police officers were unwilling to see this happen.
so……
When George Stacey led Baker to an interrogation room, he lowered his head and said softly: "This case is being managed by the homicide officers."
Baker said thank you to George.
Come in.
His secretary Sophia Camille sat quietly in a wheelchair in the room.
Baker raised his eyebrows: "Where's the Hex leg knife?"
Camille was about to speak.
George, who had not yet gone out behind him, said: "Because those prosthetic legs are murder weapons, so..."
The murder weapon was naturally sealed and kept as evidence.
Barbara said: "I'll go and find out the situation first."
Beck nodded.
Barbara just said something to George Stacey, and then turned and walked towards the office of the New York Police Commissioner.
Baker sat down.
Camille, who was wearing a black outfit, said, "Boss, I'm sorry!"
Baker laughed: "Of course you have to say sorry. I don't know yet that the secretary I have always been proud of and never caused me any trouble will kill someone."
Camille said nothing.
Baker sat down and sighed: "Tell me, I don't believe I punched you in the eye. When will you kill someone, or kill five people in a row?"
Yes.
This was briefly introduced by Officer George Stacey on the road just now, and it is said that Camille was arrested at the scene. Even when the first police officer rushed in, Camille’s leg knife was very sharp. slit the last man's throat!
This is very distressing.
The main reason was that the police officer was very distressed. If they had known whose secretary Camille was at that time, they would have cut off the video on the chest immediately.
Now?
The case has been reported and the video has entered the evidence room.
In principle, it can be done, and the police officer wanted to do it, but unfortunately, after the homicide team took over, they immediately learned about the relationship between the boss behind Camille and the New York Police Department. Protective measures were taken for those physical evidences.
Baker was also troubled.
Because he has always been proud of his sharp vision. Baker was even convinced that when he went to the East African savannah, his secretary, Ms. Sophia Camille, had an extremely powerful leg knife, but in fact, The pair of Hex leg knives were like a pair of high-tech prosthetics to Camille.
Even killing is a skill.
This is especially true for leg work.
As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to practice boxing and ten years to practice legs. If you want to develop good leg skills, it is impossible to do it without putting in a lot of effort.
Then here comes the problem.
Baker looked at his secretary with some confusion: "How could you easily cut a person's throat with a leg knife in no more than half a year at most? How did you learn the art from a master? Which master was it?"
Camille opened her mouth: "Boss..."
Baker smiled and said, "You don't want to say it, or you can't say it?"
Camille lowered her head: "I promised..."
Baker interrupted directly: "Okay, I respect you. Next question, why did you kill? Did you want to see if you could kill someone, or was it a moment of confusion, or did it happen for a reason?"
A trace of anger flashed across Camille's face, and then she lowered her head. A trace of imperceptible confusion flashed across her face, and then she shook her head: "No, I don't know the five of them."
Baker raised his eyebrows: "What are you confused about?"
Camille frowned, then looked at Baker: "Boss, if I say that I thought the five of them were bad guys, would you believe it?"
Baker smiled: "You are mine. Before you betray me, I will only trust you and not others."
Camille then looked around, then leaned forward and lowered her head: "Boss, if I say, I was knocked unconscious by a vampire, and then I woke up and saw those five homeless people, I thought they were going to do something to me, so , I killed them, do you believe it?"
Baker nodded: "I believe it!"
A vampire.
Not to mention vampires, he has dealt with even the royal family of vampires and above. However, because the paths are different and he appreciates the style of New York vampires, Baker is too lazy to provoke these people who can only move at night. .
The less trouble, the better.
Baker is a good man, and all the family reunions, family reunions and even global reunions are all forced.
That’s all!
Baker took a sip of the coffee that the police officer had just brought in, and then looked at Camille: "Tell me what's going on!"
A trace of anger flashed in Camille's eyes: "I found the murderer who destroyed our village."
Baker raised his eyebrows!
That is revenge killing, very good, you are worthy of being mine.
"continue!"
"Boss, do you still remember the time we went to Kenya to inspect the coffee bean factory in July?"
"Remember."
"Boss, you have something to do this morning. When I got off the plane and followed the convoy to the coffee bean factory, I saw the guy on the roadside."
"...Are you sure that's him?"
Baker frowned. He was sure of his memory, but Camille, after all, she was only a teenager when her legs were crippled. Baker knew this very well.
Camille nodded seriously: "Even in fifty years, I will still be able to recognize him."
Baker stopped talking and just motioned for Camille to continue.
Camille's home is in a small country in Eastern Europe, and it is in a small village far away from the city. In the 1990s, the small country was in turmoil, and various mercenaries began to work for various rebel armies in the small country. To put it bluntly, It's whoever gives money, who they help fight the war.
As a mercenary, if you have money, you will be a mother.
Camille's village was looted and raided by a group of mercenaries at that time. If the UN troops hadn't arrived faster, Camille might not have simply lost her legs.
So many years have passed.
Camille said it was impossible to forget hatred. No, when she was in Kenya, with just one glance, Camille recognized the culprit who destroyed his village.
Today in the criminal world, the mercenary world, the boss of the Jackal Mercenary Group, Anthony Burt!
After returning to New York, Camille used her own resources to track this guy, while secretly finding a master, studying hard and looking forward to cutting off this guy's head with her own hands.
"Anthony Burt?"
"Yes."
Baker took out his cell phone and sent a text message. Not long after, an email arrived in Baker's mailbox.
Click on it!
Baker raised his eyebrows.
No wonder.
Baker was a little curious just now. No matter how powerful a mercenary was, it was impossible to deal with vampires, but now, after seeing this email, it became clear.
…
