Chapter 40 The Party Begins, a Secret Third Party

In the early morning of the next day, Anton arrived in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles is the seat of Hollywood, where celebrities gather and journalists are far crazier than their New York counterparts.

A group of people held up cameras and squatted at the exit of the airport unabashedly, waiting for Anton to come out.

With their personal connections, as long as Anton gets on the plane, they know Anton's next destination.

Even private jets are no exception, and there will always be people who are bribed by them.

At present, not only the ordinary exits, but even the VIP exits are guarded, and Anton does not know how these reporters got in.

Every outlet has eyeliner.

The Los Angeles reporter is the intelligence king of Los Angeles.

Whether on the ground or underground, from gossip to international events, journalists can be seen everywhere.

"Go back and get rid of everyone on the plane and get a new one."

Anton's face was ugly. After standing still, he looked around and saw a bunch of reporters at the door looking like they were "seeing to see through", giving him a headache.

He knew that it must be an employee on a private jet who leaked his information.

"clear."

Betty nodded: "Do you need me to call the airport security?"

"Call over."

Anton sighed. He really couldn't handle these reporters, and he also lacked experience in dealing with reporters.

As the behind-the-scenes boss of the Daily Bugle, he knows better than anyone that if he answers something here, he may become the headline of the newspaper the next day.

Do not doubt, he is now such a well-known.

After a few minutes.

Surrounded by a group of security guards, Anton got into the car and left, leaving no space for the reporters.

During this process, a group of reporter friends who were frantically pressing forward put the camera on An Dong's face, as if they didn't need to ask anything.

The group chased Anton's car and came to a mansion near Los Angeles.

"What is he doing here?"

Some reporters were surprised.

"Party."

The other replied: "Jim brought up the party to eight o'clock this evening, and Anton came to LA for the party."

"what?"

The man was surprised: "Shouldn't the party be tomorrow?"

"A day earlier, you don't know this? You should quit your job and go home to nurse your child. This line of work is not suitable for you."

His peers looked at him with contempt, as if looking at a waste.

Time quickly moved from early morning to evening.

After enough rest, Anton drove to the party venue in high spirits.

The co-pilot's female companion is his personal assistant Betty.

When the reporter saw this, he followed up.

at the same time.

New York.

On Sloan's orders, members of the Brotherhood appeared near the Empire State Building.

There's Firefox, the repairman, the gunsmith, Mr. X, the insecticide, the butcher, and others.

Almost all members of the team were dispatched to deal with Carlos.

They are the top killers in the world.

The reason why they are all out is because they know how difficult Carlos is to deal with.

Carlos, who used to be a companion, is a mythical figure who has never missed a beat in the Brotherhood and is admired by countless peers.

The terrifying gunfighting technique made the members of the Brotherhood extremely terrified.

Even the killers under the High Table think that Carlos is one of the most difficult people to kill in the world.

The ranking is still above Sloan.

To be fair, although John Wick is known as the king of New York killers, if he really wants to compare, he will definitely not be able to handle Carlos, at most comparable to Firefox and others.

After all, if John Wick could take out Carlos, the High Table wouldn't be so terrified of the Brotherhood.

But what these Brotherhood members didn't know was that their actions, from beginning to end, were watched by a pair of red eyes.

Whoosh!

In the dark night, when the incomparably tall figure was hidden, there were two pointed and long ears on his head, very much like an anthropomorphic rabbit.

...

Los Angeles, party time.

One after another, big names arrived at the party venue to participate in the celebration held as "Mystery of the Shadow" broke through 600 million at the global box office.

The reporters pressed the shutter again and again.

The flashing lights added a touch of lantern mystery to the party.

Of course, the reporters were stopped outside the door, at most, they shot in through the door, eager to see through.

A very small number of female reporters took the arms of "big men" and walked into the party venue arrogantly, attracting envy, jealousy and hatred from countless male reporters.

As one of the protagonists of this party, Anton stood at the door to greet these big coffees.

Either familiar or unfamiliar.

At this moment, everyone is like old friends who haven't seen for many years.

Next to Anton is Jim Lambert, who has returned to the ranks of first-line producers with "Mystery of the Shadow".

Jim at this time can be described as high-spirited, swept away the decadence of previous years.

"Batman Part 2, when are you going to shoot?"

Seeing that the guests were almost here, Jim finally found time to chat with Anton who had not seen him for a long time.

"It's already planned."

Anton replied: "In addition to Batman, I currently have some other plans that I plan to advance simultaneously. Jim, how do you think about what I asked Betty to ask you about?"

"You mean joining your new DC company?"

Jim hesitated: "This matter is related to my future career planning, you have to give me more time to think about it."

"No problem, but I don't have much patience."

An Dong said lightly: "You know, you are not the only producer in Hollywood. Everyone is very attentive."

Jim's face changed slightly, and he said seriously: "I know, I will give you an answer as soon as possible."

"Okay, let's go in."

An Dong changed the conversation: "Everyone who should be here is here, it's time for the next activities."

After speaking, he walked towards the crowd.

Jim pondered for a while, looked at Anton in the crowd, smiled slightly, and then followed.

Another ten minutes passed.

Anton's eyes flashed.

At this time, if someone observes his pupils, he can find that he seems to see another picture.

This picture does not belong to this party, but a deep darkness.

...

New York, Empire State Building.

Carlos disguised as a cleaner and shuttled between the corridors.

In this decisive battle, if the Brotherhood discovered his trace, it would be better to say that he deliberately revealed his position, with the aim of inflicting a heavy blow on these top killers of the Brotherhood under perfect preparation.

Years of chasing and killing made him tired of such a life.

He's ready to tackle the Brotherhood's masters in one go.

Either you die, or your opponent dies.

click!

Suddenly, all the lights inside the Empire State Building went out, and someone cut off the electric switch.

However, during this night, power outages were common and did not attract the attention of others, only Carlos raised his eyebrows.

It seems that the gang of Brotherhood have entered the Empire State Building.

As for this group of people in the Brotherhood, seeing all the lights that were extinguished above their heads, they also moved in their hearts, thinking that it was Carlos's handwriting.

Neither side knew that in this decisive battle, a third party appeared.

And this third party is spying on everyone in the dark.

Yesterday, a friend posted a chapter in chapter 39 saying that the protagonist was a little bit out of B, so I changed the dialogue a little, and then the chapter disappeared, maybe it was swallowed! !

To emphasize, I haven't deleted anyone's comments or chapters so far - advertising and group accounts don't count.

As long as it's not hard to hear, I'll accept it.

above!
