Willis is dead. It was a frustrating death because he still had so many ambitions that he could not fulfill. Most importantly, he had not yet defeated his old enemy, brother, Luke Cage.
The feud between Willis and Luke Cage is very complicated.
It was generally caused by a scumbag, Luke Cage's half-brother, as a result of an affair between Luke's father, James Lucas, and his secretary, Dinah Stryker. . In their youth, Willis and Luke were best friends until they were arrested for vehicle theft. Luke was sent to military school and joined the Marine Corps, during which time Willis was in juvenile hall and was forced to kill someone in self-defense.
Also around this time, Willis' mother died of cancer after being abandoned by his biological father. The reason for being abandoned is also very simple. The scumbag got tired of playing and planned to return to his family. So he re-entered the arms of his wife, leaving Willis's mother to fend for herself. Of course, Luke Cage's parents didn't get a good end either. They both died in a car accident.
Originally, when ordinary people got here, even if they had any grievances, they were almost gone. Everyone is dead, so what else?
But Willis has been in love with Luke since he was a child. Even though they have the same father, they have completely different lives. Luke had a happy childhood. Although his father was a scumbag, he was still very good to Luke, but what about Willis? In fact, he was not liked very much by his father. This scumbag was just playing for fun and had no intention of killing anyone. So after unexpectedly having Willis, his father didn't like the illegitimate son very much and didn't even allow him to call him father.
Although they made mistakes together, Luke was sent to the military academy by his father through his connections and escaped punishment. However, he has to go to jail carrying the crime! This gap is an imbalance of mentality for individuals.
The resentment and jealousy that existed since childhood, coupled with the death of his mother and his own life in a mess. Leaving Willis completely twisted. These things make Willis vow to destroy Luke!
Although Luke was completely innocent in this matter, Willis didn't care. He eventually gets his revenge by framing Luke for being sent to Highgate Prison.
Things became simple after that. Luke went to prison and lost everything, his once rich and happy life, and his honor. But that's what happened. Not only did Luke get out of prison quickly, he also gained superpowers.
And Willis has completely gone astray and turned into a complete bastard. He vowed to kill Luke!
But so far, Luke doesn't know why Willis hates him so much. Willis died.
It's worthless.
Well, you can’t say that.
To Hannibal, this guy still has some value.
For example, Goldfinger, who had not been seen for a long time, actually made an appearance, and Hannibal got his magnetic superpower from Willis!
This thing doesn't look like much, but it is actually a powerful ability. Although it doesn’t look very powerful in Willis’s hands, it’s different in Hannibal’s hands!
Don’t forget, Kai’s golden finger has the ability to upgrade!
"Ha, it seems that today is a good harvest day!"
Bloodmint looked at Hannibal, wondering what this meant.
Hannibal did not explain, but said: "Let's go. The matter is not over yet."
"Yeah...it's not over yet!" Blood Mint forced himself to cheer up.
…
Cornell Stokes was in a bit of a bad mood because he seemed to be in trouble.
Hannibal shows up!
Cornell is an extremely cautious person, otherwise he would not hide it so deeply. Once upon a time, the whole of New York was immersed in Kingpin's majesty, and Cornell was no exception. However, Kingpin had troubled Cornell numerous times, but failed to kill him. On the contrary, Cornell also learned the essence of Kingpin from his confrontation with Kingpin.
That is to hide yourself!
Cornell felt that Kingpin was a genius. He used layers of fog to hide himself. He seemed illusory, but in fact he controlled everything!
So Cornell also followed Kingpin's example, not to show up for everything, but to use more allies and subordinates to isolate himself from the direct relationship with those crimes.
To be honest, this move is very difficult, even if you are slightly less capable, you won't be able to do it.
But Cornell succeeded.
He successfully hid himself and mastered an invisible empire!
And all this relies on his caution.
So this time Willis went to collect the blood mint, and he also sent people to monitor it.
But the news from his subordinates made Connell feel sick to his stomach.
What the hell! Just say don’t attract the attention of those big guys! Don't attract the boss's attention!
It still attracted troublesome people.
Hannibal!
To the outside world, Hannibal is a mad murderer, but Cornell knows...this guy is definitely not a murderer, but a boss like Batman!
Of course, it was also a surprise to learn this news.
Cornell is a voodoo wizard. He has connections in the mystical side, so he has heard of Hannibal's reputation for killing dark creatures. It was Hannibal and Blade who slaughtered all the vampires in Chicago! This is big news on the mystery side!
Cornell is even more afraid of Hannibal than Batman.
After all, Batman would never kill someone no matter what, but Hannibal... this guy doesn't have such rules. Once he is deemed worthy of death, he will really die.
"Damn! Damn! Damn!" Cornell was sitting in the Continental Hotel, frowning.
He felt like things were getting out of control.
"Maria...I'm in trouble." Cornell finally called his cousin and his most important partner, Maria Dillard.
Maria Dillard, the Harlem congressman and the most prestigious congressman in Harlem, is considered the most promising political star. After all, with the prevalence of identity politics in the United States, the identity of black people has begun to Popular, Maria is not only black, but also a woman. At the same time, she also had this tragic childhood, and then relied on her own efforts to change her own destiny. It is a typical American dream, and other political identities are superimposed. It is simply politically correct. Correct.
Maria is also very good at using these identities to gain countless supports for herself.
But at the same time, this woman is also the biggest backer of the dark side of Harlem. She relies on her cousin to control various gang forces in Harlem and reaps huge benefits from it.
"What's going on? Because of the woman who came back for revenge?" Maria obviously did not realize the seriousness of the matter.
"No, bigger trouble."
The Dillard family is a very famous black family in Harlem. This family came to Jamaica and settled in Harlem, New York many years ago. They were even leaders of the black equal rights movement in Harlem. Once Martin Luther King's comrade-in-arms was a symbol of black people in Harlem, and the nightclub Harlem Paradise was a symbol of the revolution. But now, the family has changed.
Cornell's surname is Stokes, and this family is very close to the Dillard family, which has been married for generations.
"I need you to persuade the New York police to protect me." Cornell made his request directly without any politeness.
"Cornell, Cornell, wake up! You are a gang leader, and you want me to find the New York police to protect you? Do you think it's too comfortable outside and want to go to prison for a vacation?" Maria said with a hint of ridicule.
"That's better than staying outside!" Cornell shouted impatiently.
Now Maria finally understood the seriousness of the matter.
"In the end what happened?"
"That idiot Willis attracted Hannibal here!"
"Hannibal?" Maria didn't quite understand what Hannibal meant. ,
Cornell can only educate himself.
Then Maria understood why Connell was like this.
Maria was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, and then said: "I heard that the New York Police Department has set up a special investigation department to deal with people like Hannibal. I will find a way to use my influence to let them I will protect you. But...it will take time, and I must have a reasonable reason."
"Then let Kai Wayne protect me!!" Cornell was really frightened, so he shouted indiscriminately: "You are a congressman! The police must listen to you!"
Maria on the opposite side was a little speechless.
"Thank you for thinking so highly of me, cousin... But you have to wake up! Stop sleeping! You are talking in your sleep!"
Maria is indeed a congressman, but the problem is that she knows exactly what others are and what her identity is. She may be able to use public opinion, money, and power to bully and bully those wild superheroes, just like she did to discredit Luke Cage and despise Daredevil. But the question is is Kai wild?
Others have big capital behind them! There are senior government officials! Has a military background! The mayor and attorney general of New York City are covering him!
Maria, a bumpkin congressman from Harlem, is going to take the lead and order Kay?
"Then what should we do now? Hannibal could happen at any time..."
As a result, before he finished speaking, he heard a burst of noise from the other side of the phone.
"You can't..."
"Sorry! NYPD! Ms. Maria Dillard, there are several homicides related to you, and this is an arrest warrant! Now, you have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will become evidence in court. .Please cooperate!”
"This is my office! Get out!" Cornell could hear his cousin's trembling. Damn it, this is going to be a serious disaster!
"We have an arrest warrant, and this is government property, not yours. So you have no right to drive us away. Now, please cooperate!" The policeman opposite seemed to be a female policewoman. Her voice was very nice, but in Kangnai In Er and Maria's ears, it was comparable to the scream of a demon.
"Farke! Farke! Farke!" Cornell smashed the phone in his hand.
What else is there to say? My cousin is in trouble.
The reason is simple. No matter what, Maria is a member of the Harlem District. Even if she is really involved in the case, generally speaking, the police will be polite. But now, the police dare to be so disrespectful. There is only one possibility. Then Even if you get the irrefutable proof, you can’t even push it!
Say nothing. Wait to die!
Of course, Connell was not worried about Maria confessing him. It wasn't because of his close sibling relationship with Maria, hehe, he wasn't even sure whether that thing existed or not. The real reason is that if he is exposed, Mary will really be a widow with a dead son, and there will be no hope at all. Besides, what if I confess him? Anyway, he never takes over those dirty things directly. Is there any evidence? False accusation!
What really hurts Cornell is that his protective umbrella is gone!
The reason why they were so arrogant in the first place, killing Riley Snow's family, and then sent Riley to a mental hospital, was it because they relied on the corrupt network provided by Maria? Now that Maria has fallen, it is unknown whether the corruption network above them can still exist. Even if those people are not implicated, Cornell has no way to contact them.
How could Maria give her connections to Connell? If she did, what value would Maria have?
So, the adult world is scary!
What Cornell must now think about is how to protect himself from this storm. As for Maria...may God bless her.
God is very busy and probably has no time to bless such a scumbag.
After Matt handed the case over to Special Branch.
Kay immediately ordered the Special Branch to investigate Cornell.
Just like Connell thought, this guy is a very good thief. All the bad things are not directly related to this guy. Even if he is arrested, there is no need to go to court. This guy just needs a reliable lawyer and he will be arrested the next day. Once he got out of the police station, there was nothing the prosecutor's office could do against him. After all, there was no evidence at all.
But it just so happened that Connell's case was not found out, but there were a lot of bad things about his cousin Maria.
Let me talk about it here. Maria is also a smart person, but she is not as cautious as Connell. Perhaps it was because she had relied on the support of the black and white circles for a long time that she went smoothly, and she got a little carried away. Acting recklessly.
This guy killed three reporters alone, all of whom wanted to expose her, and there were even more others who were threatened by her.
In addition, she also hacked several competitors.
There are also some messy cases that are enough to keep her in jail for the rest of her life, and most of them have solid evidence, pictures, truth, and videos, which cannot be denied at all.
Plus this guy embezzled campaign funds.
Elections here in the United States are all about fundraising. A typical power-for-money transaction, of course it is legal. However, according to the election law, all funds raised can only be used for campaigning and may not be diverted for other purposes.
When this incident broke out, it was announced that Maria's political future was ruined.
Political elections in the United States basically mean don’t play if you don’t have money.
There are really not many people who dare to play with campaign funds.
After all, once this thing is exposed, almost no one will donate money anymore.
Of course, Cornell has no time to think about whether these things exist or not. No matter what, Maria's life is not in danger. Cornell has no chance of going to jail, but his life is not guaranteed!
"The Continental Hotel...high table."
Cornell had always known about High Table, and had even been approached by High Table in the hope that he would join them. It was the time when the High Table and the Kingpin were competing fiercely for New York. Cornell is such a shrewd person. He clearly knows that Jin is not a good person and will definitely kill him if there is a chance. But Gaotai Table is not a good bird. Once you join Gaotai Table's perverted system, you will basically become a domestic slave of the twelve masterminds.
Cornell has worked hard for half his life just to be a dog for others?
does not exist!
But now it seems that Cornell's options are running out.
Either save your life and surrender your autonomy, or wait for death.
After thinking for a long time, Cornell was at his wits end. After all, Hannibal is not like other superheroes who care about evidence and even promise not to kill anyone. Hannibal is famously cruel and has no principles at all.
It's important to save your life.
So Cornell bitterly took out a phone and called the front desk of the Continental Hotel.
