Once those "rumors" turned out to be true, even if only one or two of them were confirmed, Samantha Reyes would lose her position, and could very well end up in jail.
Luke simply nodded with a smile and didn't say anything.
He didn't know if Reyes would lose her position this time, but he knew better than anyone that she would definitely start to have bad luck.
She wouldn't die from a small punishment. At most, nothing would go smoothly for her.
But there was another piece of information attached to this piece of news, which was closer to Luke and Selina.
Jennifer, who was suspected to be Dustin's girlfriend, had come to New York after recovering from her injuries and became an assistant district attorney.
Elsa didn't know how Dustin had captivated Jennifer to the point that she was willing to move and change careers for him, much less Luke and Selina.
But that was just a private matter between Dustin and Jennifer, and nobody wanted to delve into it.
After coming to New York and starting a new career, Chief District Attorney Reyes had always found Jennifer an eyesore and never let her become a regular employee.
This time, Reyes couldn't protect himself, and Jennifer successfully became a regular employee. Now, she had to be called District Attorney Jennifer.
There were plenty of district attorneys and assistant district attorneys in the New York DA's office, which wasn't unusual.
But for Dustin, it was sometimes very convenient for him to have acquaintances in the public security, procuratorate, and judicial departments.
However, Dustin had "hidden" District Attorney Jennifer very well. She hadn't appeared in front of everyone as his girlfriend yet, so there was no need for them to celebrate her.
He would inform the people in the small hill that they could look for Inspector Jennifer if they needed anything.
Another piece of insider news was that HQ might be making a move on the 15th Precinct.
It was impossible for HQ to fire all the officers in the 15th Precinct, but they would soon transfer a new chief over.
As for who this person would be, it wasn't certain yet.
Luke guessed that this might have a lot to do with his and Matt's "part-time jobs."
Kingpin's forces began to retreat and didn't frequently provide "help" to the illegal officers of the 15th Precinct.
The other gangs were more or less implicated, and public security in the Clinton area improved significantly.
HQ might have noticed something, which was why they were thinking of reorganizing the 15th Precinct.
Transferring a new chief over wouldn't be a big move, and the effect might not be that great.
But as long as the new boss of the 15th Precinct didn't collude with them, there would naturally be people who didn't want to be illegal police officers who would take the initiative to approach him. For example, Sergeant Mahoney would definitely cry tears of joy.
These two events didn't have much of an impact on Luke and Selina, but they could be considered good news.
After listening to Elsa's boasting, Luke and Selina patted Dolphin's head and left for the Nassau County laboratory.
At the lab, Luke paid a friendly visit to John Wick, who was locked up.
In the laboratory, a workshop that had yet to be used was tidied up and used as a temporary black room.
Of course, this little dark room was not really dark. There were lights, televisions, and all sorts of books.
Apart from the fact that there was no one to talk to, it wasn't too hard for an ordinary otaku.
The square-headed skewered dog that didn't even have a name was also accompanying John inside.
However, its treatment was much better than John's. It could come out through the small door every day and let out two breaths under Gold Nugget's supervision.
So John's days were not very good, but they were not too difficult either.
The door to the lab opened, and Luke walked in.
At that moment, he had changed into V's attire again.
Looking at the weird smiling mask, John calmed down a lot. He wasn't in a hurry to say anything, and simply looked at Luke in silence.
Luke didn't waste any time, and went straight to the point. "Have you considered my suggestion?"
John: "… Does it matter if I agree or not?"
Pondering for a moment, Luke nodded. "Yes. At the very least, I'm more relaxed when I use your appearance to take the blame. "
Stunned for a moment, John then had a bad feeling. "What did you do?"
Luke chuckled. "Of course it's your old job. You barged into the Camorra family's party and fired a few shots. You killed a few dozen people, I guess. "
John's eyes widened. "WTF?"
Luke said, "Manners. Maintain your manners as a super killer. Also, don't worry, your old client is fine. Hehe, no wonder you didn't want to fulfill the blood oath badge back then. "
John, who had always kept a poker face, finally couldn't help but gape. "What? There's nothing between me and Jaina … "
Luke said, "Yo, how do you know which old client I'm talking about? How hypocritical of you to deny it. "
Looking at John's changing expression, he stopped joking. "It seems that you won't resist my suggestion, right?"
John's mouth twitched. How can I resist? I'm still being grounded by you, bastard!
Luke simply continued, "Now, let's discuss the new situation. For example, and I'm saying for example, if you don't kill your old client but Santino, what will the Continental Hotel's reaction be? How will the High Table react? Who will they send to deal with you … "
John's imagination seemed to have been enlightened, and he instantly understood Luke's intentions. "You want to use my appearance to kill Santino? You want to deal with the Continental Hotel and the High Table? If you're crazy, you'll be exterminated! The High Table and the Continental Hotel will refuse to provide you with any services … Uh … "
At that point, he suddenly froze.
Luke tilted his head and chuckled. "Do you understand? Indeed, you're the only one who'll be exterminated. "
John couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Yes, it was him, John Wick, who was about to do these earth-shattering things. What did it have to do with V?
The High Table and the Continental Hotel would issue a double kill order, and countless hitmen and mercenaries would swarm over for the high bonuses and the special contribution rewards within the High Table.
But they were all after John Wick.
Did V care about that? Obviously, he wouldn't care.
Unlike an assassin who lived on the high table, no one knew V's true identity.
Thus, the kill order had nothing to do with V, and nobody would cause trouble for him.
As for extermination, it had no effect on V at all.
V hadn't used the High Table's services, but he was still living freely!
This was all John Wick's problem.
Luke looked at him with interest. "Now, are you interested in transferring your identity?"
After a brief silence, John Wick asked, "What if I still don't agree?"
Pondering for a moment, Luke said, "Then I can only lock you up for a few months or a year, and then throw you in South America or Africa. Whether you live or die will depend on your luck. "
John was surprised. "You're not going to kill me?"
Luke said, "I'm using your identity to do things, so your life is still your own."
He was telling the truth.
John almost never attacked ordinary people, and had retired for several years.
For the sake of his handsome face and helping Luke take the blame, letting him live was a small matter.
