American comics: I can extract animation abilities

When they arrived, Tommy got out of the car first and stood outside to light a cigar.

Candice was still sitting in the passenger seat. She first took out a wet wipe from her bag to clean the smudged eyeliner, then took out her makeup and touched up her makeup in the mirror.

After dressing herself up again, she got out of the car, took Tommy's hand, and walked into the store together.

The dress had been ordered long ago.

Tommy was not very sensitive to fashion, and even his own dress was taken care of by Kim.

Candice's Chanel haute couture dress was also ordered by Kim at the counter.

Now that she put it on, it seems that Kim still has good taste.

At least in Tommy's eyes, Candice standing under the lights is really as charming as an angel.

"Really?"

Candice smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed.

"Really, do I look like a liar?"

Having paid the bill long ago, Tommy took Candice away directly under the envious eyes of the clerk, checked the time, and drove to the cocktail party.

…

Many guests have already arrived at the cocktail party.

Everyone gathered in groups of three or five, holding their glasses, talking about social news, business, and making small jokes.

After Tommy arrived, he also saw a few people he knew. After a few casual greetings and a few polite words, he took Candice to find the host of tonight's cocktail party.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to say hostess.

"Ms. Fisk, I'm so glad to see you."

"Me too."

Vanessa smiled.

Under the sincere offensive of Wilson Fisk, that is, Kingpin, she finally agreed to Kingpin's pursuit and became Kingpin's woman.

And today's cocktail party was held by Kingpin for her.

On the one hand, it was to announce the news that the two were going to get engaged.

On the other hand, it was also to take this opportunity to hold a private auction to help her complete the commission to sell paintings, and at the same time to promote her gallery.

"Would you like to introduce me to the person next to you?"

"Just call me Candice."

Seeing Vanessa's eyes on her, Candice introduced herself and shook hands with the other party in a friendly manner.

Looking at the radiant Candice, Vanessa felt a little sigh in her heart.

Although Kingpin was not so handsome, his temperament was a little scary.

But no matter what, Kingpin's love for her was real and sincere enough for her.

He was not as fickle as Mr. Vercetti in front of him.

It had only been a short time, and she had met three female companions.

Although one of them was nominally Tommy's assistant, Vanessa didn't believe that kind of nonsense.

Please, be professional when lying.

In the world, which assistant would look at his boss in that way?

Of course, it was their business to play how they liked.

She was just helping to sell paintings, and she just had to do her job well, and didn't need to care so much.

At this moment, Kingpin, who had just finished his speech on the stage, looked over here and strode over.

"You are here, Vanessa.

And Mr. Vercetti, thank you so much for coming."

Kingpin's attitude was very friendly, as if he was really happy from the bottom of his heart.

Tommy knew his identity a long time ago.

If it were someone else, such as Candice standing next to him, they would be confused by Kingpin's friendly attitude and think that this guy was a good person.

Kingpin can be a gang leader and make a lot of money in the upper class. His acting skills are definitely not worse than those famous Hollywood actors, and they are even several times better.

After all, if an actor fails in acting, at most the movie will fail and he will not make any money.

But if the gang leader can't act, then the matter will be serious, and he will be put in jail by the FBI in minutes.

Not only that, his life may not be saved.

Kingpin looked to the side and glanced at the people around him. Vanessa, who received the order, immediately found a reason to talk to Candidis. The two walked to the side and chatted slowly, leaving enough space for the two men to talk.

Before leaving, Vanessa, who was a little thirsty, picked up a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray, sipped it, and soon finished the whole glass.

...

"How is business recently?"

After the two women left, Kingpin found a topic to talk.

"I've read the newspaper. It's all news about the Krabby Patty these days."

"Not bad."

Tommy said lightly.

The fact that the owner of the white house came to eat the crab roe burger has been a hot topic for a while, and it has indeed brought a lot of traffic to the Krabby Patty.

Although he was a little surprised, it was reasonable.

No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

What's wrong with the president eating hamburgers? In a dozen years, there will still be presidents working in hamburger shops.

This is all normal.

He acted very relaxed. If Kingpin said he was not envious, it would be a lie.

He was not envious of how profitable Tommy's business was.

Compared with the flour business, the current profit of the Krabby Patty was nothing.

He envied that Tommy easily whitewashed himself with the Krabby Patty business, and had a good social influence, and did what he always wanted to do.

The ultimate goal of the gangsters is to whitewash themselves and get ashore.

Kingpin had also tried hard before.

It's a pity that he seemed to have made the wrong choice, and the few legitimate companies he opened have never been tepid.

On the contrary, his gang business has been thriving and is about to dominate the entire Hell's Kitchen.

The premise is that the annoying ninjas of the Hand are not counted.

After going around in circles, Kingpin finally got back to the point and spoke.

"I heard that the painting "Hare in the Snowstorm" is in your hands, Mr. Vercetti. The painting means a lot to me. If you are willing to give it up, I am willing to pay double the price."

At the beginning, he met Vanessa for the first time because of this painting. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a token of their love.

The commemorative value is so great that he wants to buy the painting back.

"Hey, what's the point of talking about money? Just think of it as an engagement gift from me to you."

With Tommy's current worth, he doesn't care about those little things.

The reason why he bought the painting was to prove his power to Kingpin, to show that he knew Kingpin's weaknesses, so that the other party would be afraid and dare not act recklessly.

Now it seems that his approach has worked.

At least after such a long time, Kingpin didn't make any trouble.

That's right.

Although the negotiations between the two sides broke down before, from another perspective, the two actually didn't have much conflict of interest, and there was no need to fight to the death for a dispute of will.

Besides, even if he really wanted to deal with Kingpin, there was no need to rush.

Tommy estimated that although Kingpin's power was obviously stronger than the Russian gang, its essence was still a normal gang force.

It hadn't involved supernatural powers yet.

Even if he killed Kingpin now, he probably wouldn't get any points.

It's better to give this guy some more time to develop, and wait until the other side recruited a master like Bullseye, and then he would take action to solve Kingpin.

In game terms, his approach should be called "raising pigs".

Just at this time, a guest not far away suddenly fell to the ground.

The guests didn't care at first, just thinking that someone was drunk and fainted.

But soon, similar things happened one after another, and guests fell to the ground one after another, and there were signs of foaming at the mouth.

This time, things immediately became wrong, and the order of the entire scene began to become chaotic.
