Anto shouted twice and was forcibly pulled into the car by Langton, and when the door was closed, he calmed down, completely unable to tell that it was the man who yelled for his mistress.
He leaned his head against the window, looked at the back of the lawyer's head from the edge of the window and seat, and whispered, "Please tell Mr. Pate on my behalf, I beg him not to touch Tina." The
lawyer was also an acquaintance with him, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I will." Mr. Pate wouldn't have taken it lightly against innocent people. "At least, it won't be just because Anto messed things up, and Anto's sister shouldn't know anything.
"I hope so. "
Anto was there in a daze. With Langton here, this lawsuit is sure to be won, but that doesn't mean Pate wants to protect him. On the contrary, Pate is protecting his reputation, indicating that even if he didn't get into trouble, Pate would kill him one day.
Unwilling....
However, this idea also seems to be a bit greedy. He and Tina were at the bottom of Gotham, and if it weren't for Pat and them, they would have died on a cold rainy night. Pate promised to let Tina live in New York and sponsor her to graduate from college, so he agreed, went to the black doctor for a microsurgery, increased the height of broken bones, and learned a hand of makeup, playing "Anthony Pate" in Gotham, making him obviously have blood on his hands but ridiculously longing for the boss of a normal family life to maintain a glamorous character.
By the way, what's my name...
Definitely not Anthony Pate, not Uriel Franklin. When he first got the job, he was forced to sign a contract, and since then, he himself can't remember his name, and his sister's name and surname have also been changed.
It doesn't matter who I am anymore.
Anto thought back to his happiest days. Of course, after he became familiar with his business, Pate was indulgent to him, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing, he could go out and provoke anyone, and he was allowed to fall in love. I just can't get married, I can't use my own phone to communicate with my sister... So what is it
? What else do I have to complain about?
But I'm still very unwilling... Nobody wants to die, no one wants to die when everything is good.
Will he survive if he kills Pate?
Anto found himself really thinking about it. Although Pate always carries some mysterious things, he is not strong in combat, and he does not have the habit of bringing bodyguards
At this moment, his chest hurt again, and the pain made him gasp continuously.
How could it be? Could it be that Pate can read minds? No, he can't even see me!
—
"It's over—"
Anthony leaned against the window of the intercity bus in a daze. No, it's not over yet, although it's easy to deal with here in Gotham, but there is another one at home. I can't hide such a big thing.
It was the last bus of the night, and in fact, I had just been entangled with the police, and those guys were also working overtime. Speaking of Gotham, the police are quite social animals, especially referring to the serious working police led by Gordon.
No, you have to think about how to tell Clark!
How to explain it? Just repeat what you said to the police! I lost my driver's license and social security card in Gotham a few years ago, and then I got a replacement, and the previous one was used as a fake certificate, and this time it was completely committed by an impostor...
Well, it almost sold badly... Let's just say that I was almost treated as a rapist, and I was scolded by the police... No, Clark has super hearing, so we have to test him to see if he's eavesdropping.
Anthony didn't think Clark would eavesdrop, and even if he heard it because of the first keyword, he would run away from it later, and wouldn't continue listening, for fear of hearing something that embarrassed him.
-
“...... That damn guy not only stole my identity, but also became a junior, even if he was a junior, he also used my name to keep a criminal record, if I didn't go quickly, my name would have been left in the police database!" Anthony bit down a piece of apple and scolded through gritted teeth, "And that also caused me to have a car accident with someone else, lost a lot of money, and made me angry!"
Clark sat opposite him peeling apples, and persuaded in a good voice: "It's okay, you don't have a reputation loss anyway." Money, you can continue to earn. "It's a big deal that he makes up for it with his own salary, and he's about to get four salaries for the month.
Anthony was angry on his face, but he was angry on his face: "It was right to strike first!He had the upper hand again!Clark didn't even realize that he was the one who should have taken the initiative and was angry!
-
As is customary, Tina ran into the public phone booth to call her brother.
Didn't get through.
Maybe it's Gotham's mess again. Tina didn't think much of it, just hung up the phone and waited for her brother to call. But it didn't, she didn't wait until late at night.
Early the next morning, she received a transfer text message. It's strange, obviously I only sent my living expenses not long ago
, and the number of transfers is also very large, a full 30,000 US dollars, but Tina has not seen so much money at one time. She almost thought it was a fraud, but she saw another text message: "Anto got into a lawsuit, and he asked me to transfer it to you." "
It's a liar!
Tina knew her brother was working for a mysterious Gotham figure, but she didn't know who it was. Although she knew that Gotham was dangerous and didn't know when her brother would be gone, her brother had been living well for many years, which gave her the illusion that such a stable and prosperous life could last forever.
Tina insisted on knowing what her brother was up to, but he refused to tell her or let her go back to Gotham, saying "If I break the agreement, neither of us will survive" or something. So she cautiously spent her high school years with a host family and was admitted to university.
At least she knew that if her brother got into a lawsuit, all that awaited him was death.
Young people have always had a lot of fantasies, and Tina once dreamed that if she had achieved so much at New York University, she might be able to set her brother free.
But now, she found that she didn't even have the courage to call this strange number, let alone go back to Gotham to check on the situation.
No, you can at least call back and ask! Even if it's a phone scam, she can't leave her brother in danger alone. Tina stared at the string of numbers, but dialed her brother's number first.
Connected. Tina breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother..."
"Is it Tina?" An unfamiliar voice came from the other side, "I'm your brother's lawyer, and he doesn't want to answer the phone right now."
"Really? That means he's fine, right?"
"Uh... At the moment yes.
Tina tried to ask a few questions, but Mr. Lawyer was tight-lipped and didn't reveal anything, but assured her that Anto was safe now.
Right now.
Summer vacation is approaching, and Tina originally said that she was going to plan a trip to Colorado with her classmates, but now she is anxious and apologizes for canceling the appointment with her classmates. Every day she would receive large sums of money, ranging from 10,000 to 100,000, and each time the source was different, it should have come from those underground channels in Gotham.
She was very upset, and her brother felt that he was transferring the inheritance to her. But Tina had just booked a ticket to Gotham online, and there was a sudden pain in her chest, and her eyes went black.
"Tina, Tina, wake up!"
was the voice of her roommate, and the girl slowly opened her eyes, unable to focus, and sat up for a while to remember what had just happened.
"You fainted... Are you going to see a doctor?"
"No, no, you should just get some good sleep." Tina
realizes that if she breaks the agreement, she will die instantly with her brother. She canceled her ticket and slowly began to breathe.
But....
On the last day before the summer vacation, she received a voice message from her brother.
"Tina, I hope you live well. -
Tina finally sees her brother at a precinct in New York. The elder brother lay in the cold coroner's room, his whole body was bloodless, and there was a purple and blackened strangulation mark on his neck, but there were no other wounds.
"It's suicide. Mr. Forensic told her.
Tina's eyes widened and wept silently, half sad, half fearful. It's true that my brother committed suicide, but it's hard to say if he didn't do it voluntarily. There really is magic in this world, or magic in the most evil way.
"Ma'am, please mourn. "
Yes," thought Tina sadly, she was not even her brother's own sister now, but a girl who had grown up with "Uriel Franklin" in her hometown, because "Uriel Franklin" had no other relatives who allowed her to identify the body.
She would bury her brother in a beautiful way, and she would have to write that fake name on the tombstone, but she would write her brother's real name in the coffin....
Wait, what's my brother's
real name, what's my real name, what's our
last name?
