Chapter 371 Meeting with Santino
John took his luggage and returned to the New World Apartment. Marcus, who was drunk yesterday, had just woken up.
As soon as he went out, he saw John coming back. Marcus covered his stinging forehead, "Hey, John, did you bring your luggage back?"
"Marcus, how do you feel?" John looked at Marcus and smiled. He remembered that Marcus had been drunk under the table yesterday.
"Damn it, I will never drink with Chinese people again." The main reason was that he really couldn't get used to drinking Chinese liquor. Well... how to say it, it tasted a bit like medical alcohol.
"Okay, John, I'm leaving. I'm going home to get some vegetable juice to sober up." Marcus smiled and shook his head, saying goodbye to John.
Yesterday, the professional doctor of New World had treated him, and it was basically some skin injuries.
"Do you want me to take you?"
"No, I've called a taxi, you see it's here."
A yellow taxi happened to be parked not far from the New World Apartment.
Marcus took a deep look at John. Although he didn't understand John's choice, he respected John's own decision.
"John, call me if you need anything!" Marcus said solemnly.
"I will, Marcus, good luck!"
John understood what Marcus meant and nodded knowingly.
Marcus straightened his coat, waved to John and walked towards the taxi.
John watched him get in the car and then slowly walked back to the apartment.
"Hey, Crow, where are you going?" Just after carrying the luggage upstairs, John saw Crow staggering towards him.
"Well, you know, Big Brother can't leave me, I'm going to the villa." Crow said casually.
He blew on his hands, "Damn Gotham City, it's really cold."
John heard it and hurriedly threw the luggage in his hand into the house, "I'm going too, I just have something to report to the boss."
Crow was stunned when he heard John's words, and looked at him warily, 'Does this thick-browed man also want to be Big Brother's bodyguard, isn't it inappropriate? '
Crow dragged John to the villa.
In the villa, Li Qing was looking at the map of Gotham and thinking about something. Gao Jin and Zhang Dongxiu followed him and looked at the map.
"Brother, what are you looking at?"
Crow approached and looked at the map curiously, but unfortunately the map was full of dense routes and circles drawn by Li Qing, and he really couldn't understand it.
"Huh? Crow is here." Li Qing smiled and glanced at Crow.
In fact, the locations he circled were all suitable for building a hotel. His idea was very simple. Since the "High Table" didn't take him to play, he would take a few "High Table" members to play.
Through the last contact with Alex, he learned that the "High Table" members were actually dissatisfied with the "Elders", especially the "Elders"' adjudicators and pioneers.
The "Elders" deliberately set up positions half a level higher than the "High Table" members in order to restrain the restless "High Table" members.
But the "Elders" overlooked one point. The strength of the twelve "High Table" members has been changing.
Some are stronger, while others are slowly weakening.
According to the strength, the new world can definitely enter the "High Table", but some old-school "High Table" members deliberately prevent the new world from entering.
Fearing that the entry of the new world will squeeze their living space.
I am afraid that the more powerful "High Table" members have been dissatisfied with the decision-making level of the elders for a long time.
"Well, brother, the old witch said she has something to do with you." Crow said in a low voice.
Li Qing looked back at John standing behind him, "Oh? John, what's the matter?"
John whispered what Winston told him.
"Boss, what should I do?" John asked.
Li Qing touched his chin and turned to sit on the sofa. It seems that Santino wants to use the blood covenant badge to let John kill Jaina.
But for Li Qing, he is still willing to cooperate with Jaina. To be honest, this curly hair does not have the ability to be the leader of the Camorra.
This can be seen from the movie in the previous life. Curly hair is a villain with a golden exterior and a rotten inside. Li Qing will not cooperate with such a person.
"John, you should meet him first and find out his purpose." Li Qing took out a recorder from the drawer and handed it to John.
John took the recorder and nodded. Santino's purpose in looking for him must be to kill someone. As for who the target is, he would know it after meeting him.
Li Qing already knew that Santino wanted to kill Gianna, and asked John to record it with a recorder to make Gianna believe it.
"Okay, Boss. I will make an appointment with him as soon as possible." John nodded.
......
Santino paced back and forth in the luxury apartment like an ant on a hot pot.
The high-level meeting of the Camorra family was about to be held. He received a rumor that several high-level people jointly proposed to cancel the management rights of his industry.
This was equivalent to completely excluding him from the core decision-making level. In the future, his status in the family would be even lower than that of ordinary elite members.
"Damn Gianna, are you so impatient?"
Santino thought that this result was caused by his sister Gianna, but he didn't know that if it weren't for Gianna, he would have been excluded from the core decision-making level long ago.
"Bang~" Santino slammed the table vigorously, "Where the hell did John go?"
Only a handful of people knew that John had joined the New World, and Santino had no idea at all.
"Ding-ling-ling~" The phone rang, making Santino even more irritated.
"Hello, who?" There was impatience in his tone.
"This is John Wick!"
After a little silence, John's steady voice came from the phone.
"Damn, you finally called back."
Santino was delighted. There was still time. As long as John could kill Jaina before the meeting, all problems would be fine.
"John, where are you? I need to meet you." Santino asked anxiously.
"Come to my villa in the country, I'll wait for you there." John specially found a quiet place for recording.
"Okay, wait for me, I'll be there soon."
Santino hung up the phone impatiently, took out the blood covenant badge from the safe, opened it and took a look, and hurriedly drove the car towards the countryside.
The car was very fast, but he still felt it was very slow.
It took less than an hour to reach John's villa in the country instead of two hours.
"Hey, John!" Santino smiled and walked up to John Wick, hugged him and whispered, "I'm sorry about your wife."
John looked at Santino, "Thank you!"
He invited him into the house and poured him a cup of coffee, "I heard from Mr. Winston that you have been looking for me?"
Santino took the coffee and put it on the table, looked at John seriously, didn't say anything, but took out the blood covenant badge from his pocket.
