Wade pretended to be surprised. "What? You mean I have to pay five million for it? "
Luke chuckled. He couldn't be bothered with this guy who was pretending to be mathematically illiterate.
He didn't look like Gold Nugget at all. Who was he trying to fool by pretending to have failed elementary school math?
Wade could be wrong about anything except money — provided that the money was closely related to him.
A certain b * tch was struck by the "sky-high price," but she still couldn't resist the urge to nag. "Then why didn't you pay for these two sets?"
Luke said, "A diamond VIP paid for you."
"Wow, that's generous." Wade was satisfied when he heard this. As for who paid for him? That wasn't important, as long as they paid.
Luke said, "The client said that you borrowed it from him anyway, so he's not afraid that you'll go back on your word."
Wade: "WTF?!"
How much would the original price of twenty million dollars be after a 50% discount? I'm waiting online. It's urgent.
He didn't dare think about it, much less calculate it.
Go back on his word? That wasn't a bad choice.
However, he had borrowed V's optical camouflage suit before, and it actually required a special charger. Could he keep using this new face-changing tool?
Wade swore on his smart brain that there was definitely something wrong.
More importantly, both he and Vanessa were on someone's hit list. He didn't care, but what about Vanessa?
This face-changing tool was indispensable to Vanessa, which meant that V had a monopoly on it.
Wade couldn't think of a way to go back on his word, unless he didn't care about Vanessa.
Thinking that he suddenly had a huge debt that he wouldn't be able to pay off in several lifetimes, he couldn't be happy.
Luke didn't use Mental Communication to sense the guy.
Using Mental Communication to continuously sense a psychopath's thoughts would most likely turn him into a psychopath.
Wade didn't need to sense it.
To deal with him, he only needed to talk about money, and then talk to his wife.
Relatively speaking, Vanessa was more like a normal person — just like, but definitely not when it came to liking Wade.
Luke also arranged for the two of them to go to Brazil.
But Wade himself was an experienced mercenary who had traveled extensively, so he didn't need anyone to follow him.
Luke arranged for the couple to go to Colombia, and then secretly went to Salvador in Brazil to settle down.
Vanessa liked this arrangement very much.
El Salvador has a tropical rainforest climate and is located on the coast. The scenery is pleasant and it is a tourist destination in South America.
For an American who had stayed in the hazy weather in New York for a long time, most people wouldn't mind going to the beach in South America for a long vacation.
Although Wade owed her for the vacation, Vanessa knew what she was doing.
The two of them could live there for decades, but they wouldn't be able to spend the five million Wade had earned before. The real expensive thing was the high-tech product that made them change their faces.
However, five million was not enough to buy that thing anyway, so he could only owe it to her for 20 million or 40 million.
Perhaps when the rumors die down and they no longer need this thing, they can ask if they can return it and pay a usage fee?
Hmm, I can still keep a set. At the very least, when I need to, I can make Wade, this ugly ghost, return to his original handsome appearance? At least it wouldn't affect the dolphin tribe. Anyway, there was still more than four million left in that sum of money. It was more than enough to buy a set. A certain woman began to calculate in her heart.
…
After rebuking the shameless Wade several times with his alias, Luke watched the two old acquaintances drive off again.
At that moment, it was dawn in Los Angeles, and a new day was about to begin.
Luke changed into another identity and returned to the city. He sat down in a corner of a fast food restaurant near USC and ordered something to eat.
Two hundred meters away was where the battle had taken place last night.
At this moment, the wounded and corpses inside had been pulled away, but there was still a yellow police line in some areas. Some people wearing FBI uniforms were going in and out of the area. There was also a patrol car and two patrol officers on standby outside the perimeter.
Luke took a sip of his coffee and smiled. Interesting. They actually dared to use their official identities to clean up the mess. Were they sure that a poor scumbag like Wade couldn't do anything to them?
Sigh, poor people didn't have a future in America, even if they had superpowers. Luke sighed inwardly.
If these people were dealing with a certain tycoon, would they have dared to show up as an official? They would probably have cleared up any connection with this matter as soon as possible to show that it had nothing to do with them.
That was because Tony had money. He had the money to make these people lose a few layers of skin even if they didn't die.
As long as he was willing, he could make most of the government officials collapse.
Which big shot didn't have something to hide? As long as Tony was patient, there would always be a chance to screw the other party over.
But whether or not Tony had the patience, or if he would simply make an exchange of benefits, was another matter.
While he was thinking that, a shiny object appeared on his phone screen. It was a bald head.
The bald man was wearing a well-ironed suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked … very much like a villain.
Of course, Luke had already put him on the list of suspected villains.
Whether it was his own investigation or Phil's expression, Luke was certain that there was something wrong with this bald agent called Sitwill.
Previously, it didn't matter to Luke which side Sitwill was on. All he needed to know was that the man wasn't a hardcore S.H.I.E.L.D.
But today, Luke was very interested in finding out who was behind this man.
The man turned his attention to Wade, who was made by Francis' shady workshop.
Over the years, Francis had sold dozens of superhumans he had created. He had no idea where those people had gone.
His employer provided all kinds of support, and he was only responsible for manufacturing and selling them.
Did that sound familiar? That was right. Francis was just the boss of an OEM factory, except that the products he produced were superpowers.
Luke's leads basically all pointed to the Department of Defense, and it was very difficult to obtain more detailed information.
Thus, it was possible that Sitwill really was a "loyal" and "patriotic" official agent.
After meeting Sitwill, Luke had wanted to call Phil and ask if he knew what Sitwill's mission was about.
But after a moment's consideration, he dismissed the idea.
If the other party was relying on S.H.I.E.L.D. to clean up the mess, it would only cause trouble for Phil.
If Phil could solve Sitwill's problem, this bald man wouldn't still be jumping around like this!
As the saying went, one trick was the most reliable. Luke's old tricks were still the most reliable!
Luring the snake out of its hole, following the map, and going straight to the root of the problem — this trilogy had always been efficient at farming points, and was worth carrying forward.
Just like that, Luke ate a lot of food to replenish the energy he had consumed last night. He also backed up all the staff members who had appeared in the apartment building.
Then, as long as he kept an eye on them, it might not necessarily be Sitwill. It could also be someone else who brought him a lot of benefits.
