Chapter 892: Accidental Identity
When Horn came to the rooftop apron of a building in the city and got on the Black Hawk spaceship. Looking at the casino from a distance, the lights are still bright and the traffic is busy. He said softly: "I came to Las Vegas once twenty years ago. At that time, the size of the city was only half of what it is now. At that time, Old Baker still didn't hide his hatred for me on his face. When he met me in Las Vegas, He said he would kill me one day. Of course he hates me, because all three of his sons died at my hands, how could he not hate me?"
Anna stood silently behind him.
Horn smiled: "I don't feel pity for him, let alone a person like him, do you really think that you will cherish the blood and family? If so, Old Baker would not be where he is today. I killed his three sons , as if his limbs were broken. He felt pain, so of course he hated me. In the end, he only saw himself. It’s just that he said he wanted to kill me, but he didn’t even dare to touch me with a finger. Because he Clearly, it is one thing to say it. If it is done, then I can kill him in a fair way."
"The old guy is very smart. He has endured until now and made the arrangements silently. But he doesn't know that I have also made full preparations for this day, and the arrangement is deeper and wider than him. I finally cleared a cancer for the family." Huo En said lightly.
"Wouldn't it be easier for the master to kill him directly?"
Horn laughed, shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. I just took over the family back then. Killing Old Baker's sons is a warning. If he is also killed, it will make the collaterals feel cold. Anna, Don't look at the glory of being a family head. In fact, we have too many things to worry about. It is not easy to maintain a family, and it is even more difficult to let the family flourish."
"It's all in my hands tonight, but there's one thing that surprised me about old Baker."
Anna narrowed her eyes: "That killer named Valsheen?"
"Old Baker couldn't find such a person. You heard it at the time. That killer didn't fully obey Old Baker's orders. Hmph, someone wants to get involved in our family." Horn's face changed slightly, violently. Cough. He took out a square scarf and covered his mouth, and the pure white scarf soon blushed.
Anna was startled and wanted to get up.
Horn shook his head, wiped off the blood on his lips, and said, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury. You see, being a Patriarch is so tiring, you can't even show your injury in front of those people."
"Master, do you want to investigate the killer?"
"No, probably nothing can be found. Even if the clues can be found, most of them are some smoke bombs. Those who dare to attack me will have to be a little heavy. How can they be dug out so easily."
Anna hesitated.
Said: "Master, Edric and Tyre may not be more loyal than Old Baker."
"Of course." Horn clenched the kerchief into a ball, and when he let go, the whole kerchief had already turned into dust. He said: "Looking at the whole family, how many people can be truly loyal. To control a fierce horse, it is not enough to cultivate feelings, but also to feed and drink it. But if it dares to be favored and proud, then It has to be beaten hard. And the strength of the beating must be well controlled. If you beat too lightly, it will not serve as a warning. If you beat too hard, you may be afraid that it will run away."
Horn smiled and looked up: "Tonight is not only a matter of settling old Baker, but also knocking them down a little bit. At least these two guys will not rebel before I leave office."
After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, and Anna knew that he was going to rest and didn't bother him. Looking out the porthole, the spaceship began to rise, and the building gradually moved away. Even the bustling city below quickly turned into a blur of lights, and the outlines of things could not be distinguished.
Just like this world, there are many things that are difficult to distinguish.
Elifint had a sleepless night.
It was already late at night, and this surface general who was nicknamed "War Elephant" in the political arena was sitting in the hall of his home. Alifante was fat all over his body, as fat as a pig, and his body over four hundred catties was as fat as a ball. He was born fair and clean, and when he squinted and smiled, he had the honesty of a fat man, but when he half-closed his eyes, he could see the murderous intent hidden in that simple and honest face.
Among the eight generals of the surface defense army, Elifant's combat power was at the back row, but his influence was firmly among the top three. Although this fat man is called a war elephant, he advocates the tactic of ants killing elephants. Among the eight generals, he has the most troops. Of course, such tactics cannot be used on high-end battlefields. But on the surface, it was enough for the general Elifant to cover the sky with one hand.
Anyone who is familiar with Elifant knows that this person is definitely not a law-abiding person. On the surface, he is a general of the Federation, but behind the scenes, Alifante has done some nasty things. Like the armed groups that cultivate the surface, they even have their own research bases, secretly carrying out those inhuman experiments. In it, there is research on predators. What's even more frightening is that the predators were originally the failure of a certain biochemical research. Based on the principle of thrift, Elifant simply threw out these modified monsters and controlled them to take actions that were inconvenient for him.
Most of the time, Ali Fant is smiling. Even when killing people, it is rare to see this fat man be serious. But at this moment, the general was about to crush the poor sofa under his ass, and there was no smile on his face. He smelled like cigarettes, and there was almost a hill of cigarette butts on the table in front of him.
Just as Eliphant smashed the unknown number of cigarette butts on the table, the window of the hall was pushed open, and a figure came in. The man should have been wearing a suit with comfort patches, but now he was wearing rags. The whole body, only the pair of sunglasses is still good, but it is the killer Valcien that Alifante lent to Old Baker. Footsteps sounded outside the hall, and Eliphant yelled, "Go back, it's none of your business here."
After the guards were dispersed, the fat man threw away his cigarette butt and jumped over the table, his figure was surprisingly light, which had nothing to do with the word stupid at all. He was supposed to be Valshin's boss, but he supported him like a subordinate, and asked, "Are you injured?"
The fat man who used honorifics opened his eyes a little, looking at the bloodstain on Valshien's chest. The latter pushed him away, and said calmly: "I can't die, Horn is really tricky. I haven't seen that famous knife for many years, and thought it was shelved by him. It turned out to be hidden in the crutch that he carried with him. That Qiu Yan is indeed a famous knife, and he took it down with one knife." , like the autumn sun. If you don’t see the sharpness, there is nothing you can’t see through, and there’s nothing you can’t cut through.”
Valsheen reached for his sunglasses.
With the sunglasses together, his face was blurred for a while. Like a puff of smoke, when the smoke dissipated, the killer's appearance had undergone a huge change. From the unrecognizable face of the public when thrown in the sea of people before, it has become a resolute face with sharp edges and corners and a very individual appearance. The important thing is that this is still Zhang's well-known face. It's a joke, His Excellency the President appears in public speeches every now and then, and the media on Babylon are doing their best to promote it. Even on the surface, the posters of the presidential election are pasted in the toilets of poor people. Who doesn't know this man who will continue to be re-elected?
Maybe even Horn didn't think that it was Morbit who attacked him on Jinfan. Mobitt tore off his tattered shirt in front of Eliphant, and a blood groove on his chest was shocking. But what is even more surprising is that the president has so many scars on his chest that he can hardly find a good piece of meat. Mobit stretched out a finger, scratched the blood groove on his chest, and said, "When Horn took out Qiu Yan, I thought I could fight. But when the knife was swung, I realized Qiu Yan's saber aura It's so pervasive, it's almost catching up with Jin Qiangwei's shattering power. If I didn't see the opportunity quickly, I probably wouldn't be able to come back."
Alifante lowered his head first, then quickly raised his face with surprise: "Is a handful of Qiuyan so powerful?"
"Of course a handful of Qiu Yan is not so powerful, but in Horn's hands, it will be enough." Mobit shook his head and sighed: "Originally this time, I wanted to take the opportunity to use the old Baker's identity to cover up, if I can kill Horn in one fell swoop Even better. No matter how bad it is, we can still seriously injure him. At that time, we don’t have to do anything, Bethkind will definitely be in chaos. Once Bethkind is in chaos, several families including the Mosen family will also be in turmoil At this time, we push it from behind again, and the whole nobles will be in chaos. It is good to be in chaos. Once the water is mixed, it will be easier for us to do things. I didn't expect Horn to be so strong. Even the tricks are terrifyingly clever."
He patted Eliphant on the shoulder and said: "It's a pity that you were not there at the time, otherwise we would have seen our Mr. Horn play open chess and dark chess together, beating the old Baker with no strength to fight back. What a wonderful scene it was Even if a Horn is like this, those wealthy patriarchs are not easy to deal with, it seems that I still underestimated them before."
"Then now?"
Mobit frowned and said: "My injury is not serious, nor is it mild. It doesn't take a few days to clear Qiu Yan's saber aura. So tomorrow's speech probably won't be able to appear, otherwise if Horn If you see the clues, then the gain outweighs the loss.”
Eliphant nodded and said, "Then I will cancel it for you?"
"No, that's easier to attract attention. It's all right, you let Alan go instead of me, he's all right."
Alan is Morbit's stand-in, and his body and appearance are 70% or 80% similar to the president. Coupled with the disguise technique used by Mobit before, as long as it is not someone who is very familiar with him, it is difficult to see through it. Mobitt said in a deep voice: "I have to stay with you for the next few days, Elifant. In speeches and other activities these few days, you and Alan try to cooperate well and don't attract the attention of the outside world."
"Naturally, please rest assured, Your Excellency." A sincere smile appeared on the general's face.
Mobit nodded, and then left in a familiar way. Eliphant sat down and started smoking again. He seemed to be thinking about something, and tapped on the table with his fingers lightly and vigorously. Shaking his head at last, he threw the half-smoked cigarette on the table and got up to leave. After he left for a moment, Mobit poked his head out at the bend of the stairs, glanced at the pile of cigarette butts on the table, and then turned and left.
After a while, a servant quickly cleaned up the cigarette butts on the table, and then scrubbed it carefully, making the table as bright as ever.
