A Certain Marvel Super Player

This news...

I can’t say it’s incredible, I can only say it’s a bit unexpected.

the next day.

Chester Restaurant!

Locke got out of the Audi and nodded to Carrie, who was not far away, waving.

Walked over.

"When did you come back?"

"The day before yesterday."

Locke said this and looked at Carrie: "How was your internship with Betty at New York's First Television Station?"

"It's very nice," said Carrie.

After changing a city, it is really like changing a life.

Comparing it with New York, Carrie almost always felt that Augusta was undoubtedly a hell, and it was a living hell.

Entered Chester's office.

Open the door.

Smoke billows.

"Ouch!"

Locke waved his hand, and in an instant, the smoke inside roared out like a long dragon: "Old man, are you planning to taste cancer?"

Good guy.

Locke took a step back and pointed outside: "I'm not going in."

Chester walked out of the thick fog, holding a cigarette and looking a little sad.

ten minutes later.

Locke learned what happened from Chester.

Arthur killed Harry.

but……

It was Harry who betrayed the killer company he was working for first, so the killer company asked Arthur to deal with Harry by himself, which could be regarded as preserving Harry's last dignity and at the same time giving Arthur face.

If you want to talk about other people, these days, there are so many killers who want to be promoted, and the tricks they play are simply not comparable to traditional killers like Locke.

If Harry was handed over to a new generation of killers, he would probably die without dignity.

Chester looked at the Hudson River at his feet, sighed, and shook his head: "This guy was set up and tricked. He leaked the information of more than a dozen killers in his company. As a result, they The company suffered heavy losses.”

Locke nodded: "That's not an unjust death."

If you say that the company wants to kill you for no reason, that would be unfair.

But betraying your own people, leaking company secrets, no matter what, it is your fault first, so can you call your death unjust?

Harry is dead.

Therefore, Arthur couldn't bear to take action anymore, but after knowing that Harry would definitely die, in order to prevent other killers from letting Harry die without dignity, he chose to send Harry away decently.

One shot to the head.

Locke put down what Chester had handed over. Harry was sitting in a wheelchair, with a bullet between his eyebrows. He shot a picture of GG and sighed: "The world is changing so fast. Two days ago, we were talking about having a meal together."

It was fine two days ago, but in the blink of an eye, everyone was gone.

Moreover, it is the kind of suicide.

Suicide out of fear of crime.

Because the company's funds had been misappropriated, the company had discovered it, so Harry quietly came to the parking lot, and then shot himself.

As a mechanic, what I like most is pretending to be an accident.

Locke smoked the cigar in his hand and looked at Chester: "For the funeral, I can just go there, but don't go there. I'll help you take me there."

Chester nodded: "I didn't plan to go there."

He's retired.

Retirement without reservation.

The reason why he was a little melancholy was because he felt that one of his old friends who were his contemporaries and had gone through a secret life with him was missing, so he was melancholy.

That's all.

Five days later.

Locke appeared in the New Jersey cemetery, glanced at Arthur next to him, put the bouquet in his hand on the ground, and looked at it. There was not even a photo on it, only the tombstone with Harry McKenna's name written on it. Shaked his head.

Chester and him were the kind of people who completely separated their careers and lives.

But most killers have turned their careers into their lives. To put it simply, they don't have many friends.

That's what Harry is like.

Even the burial was without a priest.

Only a few cemetery workers shoveled dirt silently.

Other than that, it's just Locke and Arthur.

Arthur looked at the two bouquets of flowers Locke put down and said thank you.

"I am sorry for your loss."

"Thanks."

Locke frowned and said, "I remember that Harry seemed to have a son..."

While talking.

At this moment, a man with a short crew cut, a beard, and a leather jacket, smoking a cigarette, came over from a short distance away and handed over some change left after he had just paid money at the cemetery management office. and stuffed the receipt back into his pocket.

Then, I saw Arthur on the other side of the tombstone.

"Onishet!"

Harry McKenna's son, Steve McKenna, saw Arthur, threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, and shook hands with Arthur: "Damn Arthur Bishop, long time no see."

Arthur's face was expressionless: "My condolences."

Steve McKenna smiled and said, "No need, he spends more time with you than with me."

Then.

Steve McKenna simply left.

He left very freely. After all, Harry was dead, but he still had a lot of things behind him, including bank matters and house matters.

a lot of.

It’s very messy, and at the same time, it’s also very complicated.

Arthur turned around and looked at Steve McKenna leaving, his eyes flickering slightly.

Locke came out again and looked at Arthur: "I thought you were a serious killer. Unexpectedly, you are not serious. Are you feeling guilty?"

This is not good.

A cold-blooded killer suddenly has other emotions. Either he has failed, or he is playing some evil tricks.

Arthur glanced at Locke: "If it were you, would you do it?"

Locke shook his head: "No."

Because Chester will not betray him, Locke is very sure about this. As long as Chester does not betray him, Locke has said that he will mention Chester to retire and die. Whoever dares to stop him from doing so, he will dare to let that person know. , what is suffering in the world!

No one can stop Locke from fulfilling his promise, not even the person involved.

Again.

This nature is also different.

Locke looked at Arthur curiously: "What's going on?"

Chester simply said that Harry was set up and lost a lot of money, so he could only make some money by selling the company's information.

Arthur's face was expressionless: "Harry participated in a gambling game and was washed out. Half a month ago, he was diagnosed with cancer. In order to leave some money for Steve, he thought of taking a risk to get some money and leave it." To Steve."

Locke shook his head and did not make any comments.

after all……

The dead are the most important.

Locke looked at Steve, who was wandering back and forth in the parking lot not far away, and looked at Arthur next to him: "Okay, I'm leaving. If you need help, you know my mobile phone number."

Arthur nodded, looked at Locke who turned and left, and then looked at the people on the other side of the parking lot, not knowing what he was thinking, and walked towards the parking lot.

Half a month later.

Early August.

Locke was in the newspaper and saw a bizarre death case published in the New York Daily News.

Of course.

For others, it's just a very unfortunate accident.

no doubt.

This group of people must be the other people in the gambling game. After all, after Arthur killed Harry, he finally wanted someone to vent to. So, who could be more suitable than this guy who led Harry to the point of no return in gambling? .

but……

What interested Locke even more was another thing.

Arthur called and told Locke that he had a disciple.

The disciple's name was Steve, Steve McKenna.

WTF?

What do you think?

Locke was thinking this. At the same time, the next day, he drove a motorboat to Arthur's house on an island in a lake in Maryland. He saw Arthur who greeted him at the dock and asked him the same question. : "Are you smart?"

I really feel that killing a master feels good, so if I plan to train a disciple, I might as well try killing one?

"He came to see me."

"hehe."

Locke went directly to the island and laughed happily after hearing this: "If you are really guilty, just give him one million. For you, one million is not too much."

Arthur did not answer this sentence and smiled: "According to the agreement, he is my disciple, so please."

Locke's face was expressionless.

Locke, who was behind his sunglasses, rolled his eyes.

This is the disadvantage of the master-disciple inheritance model.

After all, the training of a killer does not just rely on a master. At the very least, a teacher is also needed. If you rely solely on a master, it will be a bit partial and cannot develop in an all-round way.

However, although Rock didn't really need it, he had received systematic training on accidental killings from Arthur's master, the dead Harry.

According to the ancient rules, if Arthur has a disciple, then just like Chester's master trained Harry and Harry trained Locke, Locke will be responsible for training Arthur's disciples.

Similarly, when Rock has a disciple, Arthur also needs to come and help train him.

However, Locke felt that he might not have any disciples in his life.

but……

Rock sneered after hearing what Arthur said, and understood what trick Arthur wanted to play: "You are not guilty, you are frustrated and planning to retire."

Arthur's blood was cold.

Colder than his blood.

Therefore, Locke would not believe that Arthur would accept Steve as his disciple because of any guilt.

What's more, he has watched the movie The Machinist.

One sentence.

Arthur is not guilty, but frustrated and planning to retire.

Unlike other industries, killers do not just retire. After all, it is not difficult for a killer to retire. What is difficult is that after a killer retires, his former enemies and sworn enemies will remain.

The reason why Chester was able to retire cleanly was because he faked his own death.

That's thanks to the fact that Chester is a freelance killer, not a corporate killer, so retirement will be easier.

But Arthur?

Arthur wants to retire, and even if he agrees to it, his company may not agree to it.

…
