Chapter 56 - ATTACK ONCE MORE (1/2)
……
“OK, we’ll let you know when there’s news.”
“Then I need to get a deposit first. That’s the rule.”
“No problem, just send me your account number.”
Having talked to Wade, Lin Rui smiled and hung up the phone. Wade apparently went to the hospital to have a check-up and knew about his cancer. Lin Rui just don’t know how his condition is now. If he had gone to the hospital in advance to have a check-up if he had listened to Lin Rui, it should not be at the final stage yet. However, no matter how he is now, the only constant is that he must be short on money.
“What? The mercenary agreed? Through sensitive hearing, Matt also heard the conversation between Lin Rui and Wade.
“Yes, he did. But he needs us to give him a deposit first. I think he should have discovered his illness. With a nod, Lin Rui has received a credit card account from Wade.
“So, how much money do you have? Not that I want to ask, but you’re just a high school student, aren’t you? Sensing that Lin Rui was pulling out a small copy of Wade’s account, Matt still couldn’t resist asking.
“Well, not much money, but I can handle Wade for the time being. After all, he may not be able to help us for long.” Hearing Matt’s words, Lin Rui scratched his head and answered.
Originally, Lin Rui himself had no pocket money and the money from the dealers was used for the construction of secret bases. However, Lin Rui gave several first news to The Daily Bugle. To this end, he also got a lot of Rewards. Although not a lot, it is enough to match Wade’s quest deposit. As for the latter, Lin Rui felt that he should be able to think of a solution. If not, he would be able to accept Tony’s invitation to go to Stark Industries to be a consultant.
“Well, yeah, call him next time.” Since Lin Rui says money is okay, Matt is okay. He has no money himself anyway.
“OK! Now the question is, what exactly are Jeston Gang and Wilson doing? Them hiding like this is really starting to creep me out!” With Wade’s addition, Lin Rui’s team has at least one long-range support firepower. However, if there had been no news from Jeston Gang or Wilson, Lin Rui could not help it.
“Don’t worry, I think they should appear soon. But we have to be prepared.” Hearing Lin Rui’s worries, Matt whispered as his feelings had always been right.
“I hope so.”
……
A week later, as Matt said, Jeston Gang, who had been hiding from them for nearly a month, finally reappeared. This time, it’s not the unimportant characters, but the powerful gang leaders. According to Matt’s observation, Jeston Gang seems to be making a big move this time and Frankenstein Family has also been involved.
Although it is not clear whether the news was deliberately released by Jeston Gang or whether they are not going to hide from Lin Rui anymore, Matt and Lin Rui will not miss such a good chance anyway. So, after notifying Wade where to gather, Lin Rui and Matt sett off.
In the suburbs of New York Manhattan, there is a luxury manor, a secret base of the Jeston gang, also owned by Frankenstein Family. Tonight, this will be the busiest place in New York.
“Master Ross, the news has been released and that Daredevil and Mirage Knight should be here tonight. But are you really not worried that they’ll disturb the deal tonight? In a luxury office in the manor, Jeston Gang’s leader Verus stood respectfully at his desk and said to a young man in a suit sitting in front of him.
“You’ve been hiding from them for almost a month. I don’t think they’ll be absent tonight. As for your worries, that’s totally unnecessary. Although Mirage Knight’s strength was somewhat unexpected, it’s absolutely impossible for them to leave intact if they show up tonight. Sitting on the soft sofa, Master Ross shook his gla.s.s and said lightly that he was ready today. Moreover, tonight’s deal is not for ordinary people, or the family will not send him out.
“Yes! Master Ross! Then I will go ahead and make sure that the goods are in good condition.” Seeing that Ross is so confident, Verus stopped worrying.
“Well, go ahead. Our guests are very picky about the goods.” With a nod, Ross let Verus go.

The door was lightly closed and there was only Ross left in the luxuriously furnished room. Then, Ross sipped the wine in the gla.s.s and shook the empty bottle and smiled at the empty room.
“Mr. Housley, I haven’t seen you for a long time.” Smiling, Ross seemed to be greeting someone in the room. However, at this time, there is only one person in the room.
~
Ross’s voice had just dropped and there seemed to be a cold wind in the room, which lowered the temperature by several degrees. Then a tall white man in a neat suit stepped out of the darkness of the room and soon came to Ross.
Hoo!
“Ross Frankenstein, I haven’t seen you for a long time. But now, is your family business already in the hands of you juniors?” The sudden blonde went straight to the sofa opposite Ross and sat down, then looked at him and asked.

Seeing the gentleman sitting opposite him, Ross slowly stood up and walked over with the bottle beside him.
