At this point, the endgame has been wrapped up, and Green Arrow has accomplished his initial goal of capturing the key figure who caused all these problems: Black Bolt.
The question now is, how to deal with this black manta.
Green Arrow's trip was just to resolve conflicts and confusion, and to seek the truth. He didn't want to get involved in those messy things.
However, since Ji is now involved in it and has actively chosen to become a key part, then some things must continue to be done and done to the end.
After thinking for a moment, Green Arrow took out an arrow from his quiver, took off the arrowhead, and placed it on the nose of a young gangster.
The strong pungent smell made the little gangster wake up as soon as he sneezed, covering his mouth and rolling around on the ground.
"Thank you! What kind of shit is this...Green Arrow! It's Green Arrow..."
Although the most they usually do is smoke leaves, scare passers-by, steal money from students, steal cars, etc., this does not prevent these gangsters from getting to know the most powerful person in the city and the person who is always at the center of the topic: Green Arrow Man.
"listen."
Green Arrow has no intention of threatening the gangsters, but he does need these gangsters to convey some information now.
"Where did you get the news about this man? Why are you looking for him? Apart from money, is there anything else I don't know about?"
If he is a real gang member, facing the "weak and bullied" Green Arrow, he might still be tough for a while to support himself. This guy, not peeing his pants is already beyond his original ability.
Therefore, after telling all the information he knew about the Black Manta lying there, Green Arrow didn't get any useful information.
"This person is here with me now."
Green Arrow looked at the little gangster and said, "I want you to pass this news to those who are offering a reward."
"Ah? I...okay! I will definitely do it!"
After setting up the bow and arrow, the little gangster immediately followed his heart.
So, after watching Green Arrow, the most powerful boss in Star City, put the man at the center of Star City's biggest chaos on his bicycle and ride away in a dashing way, the gangster was stunned for more than ten seconds before he realized it later. He woke up his two friends with a loud mouth, and they ran towards the other end of the street, noisy.
I believe that what they saw and heard today will be enough for them to show off in front of their friends for several years.
……………………
"So, he really said that?"
"……yes."
"He said, let me go find him?"
"Well...it seems like this so far."
"Oh...this is really..."
Linn couldn't help scratching his head crazily.
And the leaders of various groups who bowed slightly in front of him did not dare to breathe at all.
The past few days were enough for them to use their money and connections in private to find out the name of this big boss.
If, when they were not sure of the true identity of this psychopath, they still had some idea of unity in private and gathering people to kill this guy, then when the investigator said his name: Lynn Adrian after……
Just...there will be no more.
How many lives do you have? If you dare to rebel against him, isn't it good to live? ?
Even if you have never heard of Lin En's name, as a big boss in the underground world, you must be dealing with intelligence organizations, killers, mercenaries and the like in various places. Who said it in Gotham next door? After all, even if everyone doesn’t say it, they still know it in their hearts.
Therefore, Lin En's "request" was implemented very well and thoroughly. The big bosses spared no effort and used their best skills to mobilize, always saying that it must be done or else.
Because of this, when they got the information that Lin En wanted, they sent it over without stopping, for fear that Lin En would hold them accountable for their incompetence.
but……
"This is indeed a bit confusing. I can see that you guys think the same way.
and……"
Lin looked at them with her chin in her hands, and said with a smile: "You seem to want me to find the Green Arrow.
Do you want me to help you kill him? "
All the big bosses who usually looked at the sky with their noses in disbelief, all lowered their heads, sweating uncontrollably.
This Linn...why does he seem to be hinting at someone's life in every word...
There is such a vicious person!
"Tch~ There are two gangsters in this group of people who can't speak smoothly. Why aren't they afraid of me?"
Well, they're not afraid of you.
So they are punks.
If we were not afraid of you, we would be dead. Can that be the same!
"okay."
Lin En also didn't want to chat with a bunch of wooden piles to relieve his boredom. He waved his hand and drove them all away.
"Well... Green Arrow misses me so much, then... go and visit? Hehehehe..."
The window opened and closed, and there was no trace of Linn in the house.
It took a long time before someone discovered this, and this gave these big guys who had always fought each other the first time they had the urge to hug each other and cry.
It’s so good to be alive!
………………
One of the largest and most luxurious hotels in Star City, the hotel with the best profit statement under the name of Quinn Group, was deliberately temporarily closed for a period of time at night today.
To say that it is closed is actually not quite appropriate, it is just that the venue has been "booked".
As for the purpose, today is the anniversary of the rescue of Oliver Queen, the promiscuous young man from the Quinn Group who almost died at sea many years ago but was rescued.
But this was just a pretext, a reason for indulgent enjoyment. How long had it been since he was rescued? Besides, it wasn't winter at the time, right?
"Oliver, hahaha, I knew it, I knew it~"
Together with Oliver, he is the most famous and mischievous rich boy in Star City. Tommy, who has disappeared for a while in the past year, is sitting next to Oliver, holding a wine bottle, laughing and pointing with his finger. Oliver, with an "I know it all" expression on his face.
"Tommy, are you drunk?"
The dinner party has just started, and not even the guests have arrived. How come this guy...
He reached out and grabbed the wine bottle from Tommy's hand. It was already empty!
This guy drank red wine as water again!
"Oliver~"
Tommy waved his hand, leaned back as hard as he could, and fell down on the soft backrest as if he had no bones.
"I do seem a little... thirsty, hahaha. Seriously, Oliver, if you want to find a place to be happy, why don't you go to our own place? Why do you come here?"
The "own place" that Tommy refers to is a combination of the bar and karaoke joint that Oliver and he opened in order to hide their identity.
However, Oliver did not answer him, he just smiled and shook his head: "Tommy, if you drink like this, you will definitely drink more later, and Uncle Merlin will definitely be unhappy."
After hearing what Oliver said, Tommy was obviously stunned for a moment. He even sobered up a lot and straightened up subconsciously.
However, he straightened up for a moment, then fell back softly, his eyes narrowed again, and he returned to his drunken look.
"Oh my gosh, Oliver, if you even say that, then I'm really hopeless."
"Haha, now you are studying with Uncle Merlin every day, gradually taking over the company, and you will soon become a big shot who can truly influence the fate of a city.
People like you say you have no hope and let others live their lives. "
Tommy curled his lips in disdain, wanting to retort or something, but in the end he didn't say anything, he just let out a long sigh.
In the past, he and Oliver were known as the Twins of Star City. All their energy and brains were used every day to do things that made them happy. At that time, those days were called fun and full of expectations.
But later, first Oliver and Uncle Quinn were shipwrecked, and then Sarah Lance... (Note)
Suddenly, everything changed.
More than two years later, Oliver is back, which would have been a joy. Although Tommy took over Oliver's girlfriend, they really loved each other, and at that time everyone thought Oliver was dead, so when Oliver came back, Tommy was really happy for him.
However, from that moment on, Tommy had a vague feeling that something, something, something he was familiar with had changed.
Oliver.
It was Oliver who had changed.
At first, Tommy felt that anyone who lived on a desert island for two years, helpless and in danger of dying at any time, would definitely change.
It's also a good thing that Oliver has grown up and become more responsible, more willing to take on things, and more willing to let go, and Tommy is still happy for him.
but.
Ever since that guy showed up, everything has really changed irrevocably.
Tommy still remembers everything that happened that day very clearly. Every picture.
Oliver was rescued by a very lucky guy who looked silly and could only laugh.
According to the financial resources of the Quinn family, they gave that man very generous rewards and gifts.
But that guy was very rude and annoying.
Therefore, Oliver's sister, Sia, whom Tommy watched growing up, came forward, hoping that Tommy could teach him a lesson and find someone to scare him.
Tommy, yes.
And that was the beginning of his dark life.
Tommy swore that although he smoked, drank, permed his hair, picked up girls, raced cars, disturbed people, bullied the weak and spent money to make trouble, he never apologized...
But he is a good boy.
He really never wanted to do anything to that person or hurt him.
He really just accepted the entrustment from his little sister and wanted to find a few people to scare him, that's all.
But that guy, he's a devil.
He almost killed everyone.
…
From that day on, Tommy, who had truly experienced a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, had to accept his father's education. From a playboy who did not have to shoulder any responsibilities and burdens, he was forced to become a man who had to pay more than ten meals a day. Heirs to various courses.
and……
Tommy was also told another terrifying and subversive truth by his father.
His father, the leader of the Merlin Group, actually had another dark identity.
A supervillain codenamed Black Arrow, one of Green Arrow's greatest enemies.
Tommy swore that he was so frightened that day that he almost had a heart attack.
The subsequent story... was even worse.
In addition to business classes during the day and getting familiar with the company's business bit by bit under the guidance of his assistant, Tommy also added a few hours of night classes.
Learn archery.
From the initial life-threatening exercise to the crazy beatings after his body grew, Tommy really lived 24 hours a day, and only four or five hours were not so painful. Of course, this would have to be a nightmare.
This is also the main reason why Tommy has rarely appeared outside in the past year or so.
He really didn't have time, so even the treatment of wounds was done during class breaks. After bandaging, he had to be beaten again.
How painful.
However, it was not the physical and mental pain that caused him the most pain.
But spiritually.
First, he discovered a secret that he shouldn't have discovered.
Oliver's girlfriend, who died at sea because her sister was taken away for fun, was Dana Lance, who later got together with Tommy, and then with Oliver...
At that time, when the two of them were having sex with each other by the window sill, Tommy was watching from downstairs, with tears in his eyes.
It hurts, it hurts so much.
Almost cried.
This is not the end.
Tommy originally comforted himself that since he had accepted his father's showdown and had begun to learn archery, he would inevitably face some dangers in the future, such as Green Arrow. Dana was originally Oliver's girlfriend, so that was fine. I don’t blame her, I don’t blame her…
But, Tommy is a big infatuated person. He really really likes Dana and always wants to take a look at her from a distance.
At this glance, it was clear that something was wrong.
He discovered that there was someone else doing this too, it was Oliver.
The two of them met, not to mention how awkward it was. Tommy suppressed the pain and sadness and said blessing words, but was interrupted by Oliver shaking his head. Oliver said that it was just a misunderstanding. He had no intention of pursuing anything, he just wanted to express his apology, and he would bless Tommy and Dana. .
This... what is this thing...
Tommy was confused and felt that there must be something fishy, so he decided to investigate.
The former good-for-nothing son suddenly became serious, and no one would notice any of his movements.
So, he pretended to be the same as before every day, tracking and investigating Oliver, and finally...he found out.
Oliver turns out to be the Green Arrow! !
o! m! g!
Tommy didn't tell anyone about it, just kept it to himself, but it made him suffer even more.
Today, Tommy drank wine as water because of this. He hoped to continue to be friends with Oliver, but he didn't want to see him. He hoped to be drunk straight away and fell unconscious, but also hoped that he would just drink too much and say the wrong thing and tell Oliver everything.
There are entanglements of grievances, thoughts that turn over and over again, and it is so complicated...
"Tommy."
Oliver smiled and helped him stand up: "The main purpose of today's banquet is to send a signal to the outside world on behalf of the Quinn Group. A signal that I can gradually take over the company's business and assume the responsibilities of the successor.
There will definitely be many business friends and partners coming soon. You, the heir to the Merlin Group, have to help me. "
Patting Tommy, who was half-smiling, Oliver walked towards the door first: "Come on, let's go greet the guests."
That Dana Lance is Black Canary. She was Oliver's girlfriend at first. However, Oliver ate her biological sister and took her to play with him on the boat. As a result, she died (actually she didn't die). Dana hated Oliver because of this and ended up with Tommy. Together.
That sister, Sarah Lance, is the White Canary from Birds of Prey. But in the TV series, he is a pure character.
