With a shake of Luke's arms, the leader and the guard, who had been acting as temporary meat shields, fell to the ground, riddled with bullet holes.
Crossing his arms, he slowly put the Glocks back under his armpits and strode toward the southwest tunnel again, leaving behind only screams and moans in the hall.
He wasn't walking fast, and was limping again.
When he walked out of the hall, the guards who were still alive and could still shoot were as silent as cicadas in winter.
Although the man's back was to them and he was staggering as if he were about to die, they didn't have the courage to raise their guns and open fire.
They watched helplessly as that person's back disappeared into the passageway. Only then did they all let out a long sigh of relief and exclaimed softly.
"Quick, call for help."
"Who is he? Who is it? "
"Mom, I want to retire. I'm never in gangs again."
…
Luke, who was putting on a show, limped out of the surveillance range of the underground tunnel before he returned to normal.
He snuck down the mountain and got into the car he had come in. He took out his prepaid phone and sent Jaina a text message. "Everything's going well. Act according to plan."
Jaina, who was bored to death in her bedroom and waiting for the ambulance to arrive, was about to reach for her phone when Cassian stopped her.
Seeing that it was a text message, Cassian hesitated for a moment, but still gave her the phone.
Jaina opened the message and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Cassian asked, "From him?"
Jaina hummed in response. "Everything's going well. Get your men ready. When they come to 'autopsy,' we'll control them in one fell swoop. "
She then sneered. "I really have to thank my dear brother. The most troublesome old guys are almost dead, and it's less difficult to control them. If he hadn't found Jonathan, it wouldn't have been convenient for me to deal with them. Now, they're blaming him for their deaths, hehe. "
Cassian nodded silently.
Even if Santino didn't die this time, he would definitely be in deep trouble.
Even if everything was settled and Jaina was "resurrected," those people would still hate Santino.
After all, it was the Night Demon he had found!
The old guys of the Camorra family had been implicated and died, and their descendants probably wouldn't reason with Santino.
Although this plan was drawn up in a hurry, the results were quite good.
In the end, it all depended on whether John could kill Santino.
Once this goal was achieved, Jaina would be invincible.
At that time, she would be the only direct descendant of the Camorra family. At the same time, she would also be one of the twelve Masterminds at the high table.
…
Luke drove back to the Continental Hotel in Rome with blood and dirt all over him.
From the hotel's parking lot to the lobby, many people only looked at him for a moment before looking away. They weren't too surprised.
The customers here were all veterans of the industry who had been fighting for years.
In this line of work, getting injured was a common occurrence. There was nothing to see.
For people like Luke, they would at most pay attention to him, and when they had the time, they would find out what major case had happened in Rome tonight.
At the front desk, Luke said to the tall girl, "Help me book a ticket to New York on the first flight tomorrow morning."
The black receptionist nodded. "Okay, Mr. Wick."
She glanced at the wounds on his body and asked, "Do you need me to send you to the infirmary?"
Luke shook his head. "No need. Send a first aid kit to my room."
As he spoke, he seemed to be trying his best to keep his body normal, but he still limped toward the elevator.
The Continental Hotel in Rome was the last scene.
He had to pretend that he was seriously injured, but he had to cover it up and pretend that it was just an ordinary injury.
He believed that Santino's dog would spread the news to her master.
On the sofa in the lobby, a short-haired young woman narrowed her eyes and watched him disappear down the hallway. She picked up her phone and sent a text message: He has returned to the hotel and booked a ticket back to New York tomorrow morning.
In New York, Santino's heart couldn't help but race as he read the message: Check on her condition. If he succeeds, you can come back.
The short-haired woman: Got it.
After sending the message, she got up and left.
…
No matter how much the Camorra siblings schemed against each other, Luke boarded a flight back to New York at half past nine the next morning.
This time, the flight attendant in the first-class cabin was even more considerate.
Compared to the hottie, an injured hottie would obviously arouse their desire to protect him more.
Luke was indifferent.
He read the files on his phone the entire way, and only calmly said "I'm sorry," or even more calmly said "thank you."
The files on his phone had been provided to him by Gianna.
It was basically filled with Santino's forces and important subordinates in New York.
It wasn't easy for other people to get their hands on this information, but Gianna had it all the time.
Obviously, she was also quite wary of her troublesome brother.
With this information, at least half of Santino's life was out of his hands.
Coupled with Luke, this ambitious second young master's fate was already sealed.
After reading the files, Luke had a few more thoughts. It was impossible to directly kill Santino.
That would be a huge waste of experience and credit points, and would be letting down the system's expectations.
Just like at that moment, when he looked at the system notification, he felt that working with Gianna this time wasn't a loss.
System: Kill Vittorio, an important member of the Camorra family. Completed.
Total experience: 3,000. Total credit: 3,000.
Contribution rate: 100%. EXP + 3,000. Credit + 3,000.
System: Kill Quespe, an important member of the Camorra family. Completed.
2,500 in the middle of the mission. Total credit: 2,500.
… Wait.
None of the eight mid- or high-level Camorra leaders had less than 2,000 experience and credit points. In total, Luke had gained more than 21,000 experience and credit points.
These eight people were the assassination targets that Gianna had given him. She had even marked out their activities at the banquet.
In fact, there were a total of eleven people on Gianna's list of "collateral damage."
The three who weren't shot either ran fast or were far away. One of them didn't even see anyone at all, which was how they escaped.
Also, Lucio and Ferdinand, the two guard leaders that Cassian had mobilized during the meeting in the bedroom, were closer to Santino.
Lucio and Ferdinand had led their sixty or so guards into the basement to chase after Luke, but most of them had died there.
Gianna no longer had to worry about a mole causing trouble and threatening her personal safety.
This group of more than sixty people gave Luke another 15,000 experience and credit points.
At that moment, the system showed that the host's experience was 189000/300000.
Credit point: 205000.
36,000 experience and credit points, and this was only the first half of this Camorra banquet.
The second half would continue in New York.
