Luke walked into the secret room and closed the door. As he walked along the wall and examined the weapons, he said, "Damon, have you thought about the future? Before you get your revenge tonight. "
"I …" Damon thought for a moment and shook his head helplessly. "I really haven't."
"What about Mindy's future?" he asked.
Damon's lips moved, but he couldn't say anything. He could only shake his head silently.
Luke looked at the weapons on the wall and said, "You didn't have a choice in the past. If you didn't take revenge, you wouldn't be able to sleep or think about the future. What about now? "
Damon was lost for words.
Before tonight, he hadn't considered how his daughter and he would live in the future.
As long as D 'Amico wasn't dead, his mind would only be on revenge.
Luke turned to look at him. "You're only in your early forties, and Mindy isn't even thirteen yet. It's time to give yourself and her a chance to choose again."
Damon exhaled. "What do you suggest?"
Luke pointed at the drawing in his hand. "Like I said, you can try being a cartoonist. In any case, you don't have to rely on this to make a living. You don't have to worry about rejection."
Damon hesitated. "Is that … okay?"
He couldn't imagine holding only a paintbrush in his hand in the future.
Luke chuckled. "Give yourself a long vacation first and get out of the rhythm of your life."
Seeing that Damon was looking at the weapons on the wall, he continued, "As for these things and how you use them, they'll be a hobby, and not the only thing."
Hearing that, Damon subconsciously nodded.
He really couldn't give up on guns and weapons that he had touched for decades.
"Now, let's talk about Mindy." Luke changed the topic. "You need to replan your life for the future, and so does Mindy."
Damon scratched his head. "What do you think?"
Luke said, "Look around. What's a normal twelve-year-old girl doing? Studying. "
Damon was stunned. "Do you want Mindy to go to … elementary school?"
Luke couldn't help but hold his forehead. "Damon, Mindy is almost thirteen, and she's very smart. Can't she go straight to seventh grade?"
Elementary school? What a joke! Given Mindy's mental maturity, she would be bored to death in elementary school.
This violent little loli was extremely bored. In a few days, she would beat up those childish primary school boys until they called for her mother.
Damon sweated. "She should be in the sixth grade."
Luke said, "Studying isn't for her to learn anything. Some of her knowledge is even richer than that of a college student, but it's for her to learn how to communicate with normal people. You can't always solve problems by fighting and killing."
Damon nodded again, unable to refute.
Now, even if he had to rack his brains to come up with a plan to purge the gangsters, he didn't have the energy to do so.
That was because D 'Amico, who belonged to them, was already dead. Also, this bald bigshot definitely wouldn't respawn every other day like the bosses in games.
From now on, they didn't have to spend money on weapons, equipment, training, and intelligence to purge the members of the robbers.
With the father and daughter's daily living expenses, they could live comfortably for a year with just three to five tickets.
"Think about it. When you participate in parent-child activities at school in the future, can you say that you're a hitman?" Luke said, "And being a cartoonist is at least a normal profession, right?"
Damon nodded again.
At that point, Luke felt that it was about time. "There's no rush. It won't be too late to make a decision in a week or a month. Rest well during this time and think about Mindy and yourself. "
With that, he opened the door of the secret room and walked out.
Mindy, who had already changed into pink piggy pajamas, was watching TV on the couch.
Hearing the noise, she turned around and gave Luke a "how is it?"
Luke made an OK gesture and said as he walked out, "By the way, I got something tonight. I brought it back."
Damon didn't think much of it, but Mindy was curious. "What is it?"
Luke unzipped the big black bag on the coffee table. "There's about two million dollars in the safe in D 'Amico's nest. I've already taken my share. The million here is the result of your labor tonight. "
Hearing that, Mindy lost interest.
She didn't hate money, but she didn't lack it either.
Apart from buying equipment, she really didn't need money much.
Damon waved his hand. "It was all thanks to your help tonight that we successfully killed D 'Amico. Take the money."
Luke thought for a moment and nodded. "Okay."
He didn't want the father and daughter to feel that he was giving them charity. At the very least, Damon would feel better if he took the money.
Pulling up the bag, he rubbed Mindy's little head. "I just told your dad that you'll have a leisurely vacation. You have to be prepared for a better future, Mindy."
Mindy was curious. "Huh? What does Dad want to do? "
Luke said, "He might become a cartoonist. What do you think?"
Mindy: "Bool! I'll have first-hand comics to read in the future. "
System: Mindy McCreedy has met the requirements and has joined the host's team as a one-star teammate.
Luke: … Wang Defa! Wasn't this little girl too gullible? With just a few words, she had become a teammate?
For a moment, he had mixed feelings. He couldn't help but rub Mindy's little head again. "It's too late today. I'll give you a little gift when I have time. How about that?"
Mindy stuck out her pinkie. "Deal."
Luke chuckled and hooked his pinkie with hers. "It's a deal."
A moment later, his figure disappeared into the night. The father and daughter stood in front of the window and watched him leave.
Mindy said, "Dad, he's really a good person, isn't he?"
Damon nodded. "Yes."
Pondering for a moment, he patted Mindy on the shoulder. "Sit down. I have something to tell you."
The father and daughter sat down on the sofa in the living room. Damon had only said a few words when Mindy cried out again, "What? Are you kidding me? What the hell is going to school? Is this that beautiful future? V, you're a blockbuster ~ "
After a brief silence, Damon said, "V reminded me that you really should have a normal life in the future."
Mindy's eyes widened. "I think our current life is very normal."
Damon smiled bitterly. "Mindy, Frank D 'Amico is dead. His territory will soon be swallowed up by another gang. We don't have to think about how to deal with him every day, nor do we have to destroy his nest every now and then. "
Mindy was confused. "There are other bad guys. Are we not going to deal with them in the future?"
Damon shook his head. "No, but they're not D 'Amico. We can't spend too much energy on them. We'll have a lot of free time in the future, so V suggests that you go to school. "
