"Tell me, who told you to kill me?" the person behind the bearded man continued.
After a brief silence, the bearded man felt a slight pain in his neck, and a thin stream of heat spread down his neck. It was his own blood.
"It's a revenge order. Someone has offered a huge bounty on the murderer of the D 'Amico father and son, "the bearded man said decisively.
"Oh, is that so." There was a London accent.
Duang！
The blow to the back of the head made the bearded man's eyes roll back and he collapsed.
Luke grabbed his neck and stuffed him into the car, which had already opened its door. He got into the driver's seat and drove away.
"Bastet, go back with Hellhound first. Be careful. Someone has offered a bounty on us, "he said over the comms.
Selina simply replied, "Got it," and then fell silent.
Forty minutes later, Luke was sitting on the couch in the living room.
Eating a cream cake, Selina asked, "What's up with that man?"
Luke said, "He's just an ordinary professional hitman in New York. His nickname is Blue Eyes. He received news that there's a ten million bounty on our heads. He was lying in ambush today to see if he could wait until we showed up. "
"He's really lucky." Selina nodded and asked, "Where did the bounty come from?"
Luke pointed at her. "Black Cat!"
He then pointed at himself. "Smiley Face!"
He pointed at the law firm diagonally across the street. "Daredevil!"
In the end, he pointed at New Jersey in the northwest. "Big Daddy and Hit-Girl, two million dollars each."
Selina was surprised. "They're trying to catch us all in one fell swoop. It's Kingpin's money, right?"
Luke shrugged. "According to the hitman, this is a revenge order that D 'Amico hung up at the Continental Hotel. There was originally only four million, but this morning, D 'Amico's wife suddenly added six million to the bounty. At the same time, she gave us the list of people who killed her husband and son. "
Selina tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Then, isn't Daredevil in trouble?"
Luke shrugged. "If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have gone up against Kingpin so quickly. He's not innocent."
Selina asked, "Does D 'Amico's wife love her husband and son that much?"
Luke chuckled. "In the next two days, let's see how many ambushes this rich lady has around her."
Selina immediately understood. "Are you saying that D 'Amico's wife was a trap?"
Luke shrugged. "I can't rule out the possibility that D 'Amico's wife is willing to pay six million for the murderer, but Black Cat and Daredevil didn't appear in D' Amico's nest. How would she know to put a bounty on them? Moreover, she could have secretly given us the money, but she announced in such a high-profile manner that she would pay more. Does she want to be buried with her husband and son? "
Selena nodded in agreement.
After chatting, the two of them went to work.
Bounty? In that case, Luke would really be grateful to Kingpin.

With a thought, he clicked on his character panel twice, and his Mental Strength went from 35 to 37. Luke was in a great mood.
His Mental Strength was finally going to break through 40.
Given the effect of 40 Strength, the effect of 40 Mental Strength wouldn't be bad either.
It was all thanks to Kingpin's many people that he was able to accumulate enough experience to level up in a short period of time.
He had already cleared almost ten nests, but there were still a lot of people from Kingpin's forces and their allies on Luke's blacklist.
Even if most of these people were hiding now, they would have to come out in the end.
Thus, these experience and credit points would be his sooner or later.
In a good mood, he continued to modify the black Chevrolet SUV in front of him.
His Mental Strength was about to reach a new level, and the new car was almost ready. This was truly a double blessing.
…
The next day, Luke and Selina got into the new car.
Selina stretched in the passenger seat and sighed in satisfaction. "This car is really comfortable. I can finally stretch my legs."
Luke said with a smile, "Familiarize yourself with how it works. You have a control panel with you." He then drove the car out of the house.
Selina pulled out the control panel from where the glove box had been.
There were many buttons on it for the new car that could be activated with one press.
Things like switching to fake license plates, electronic radio, external surveillance, drone control, electric shocks, smoke bombs, and parts of the car could all be done.
Luke and Selina were the only ones who could operate the control panel.
Fine, Gold Nugget could also use it.
This dog head had some talent for playing with electronic equipment, which was completely different from its lousy math talent.
Gold Nugget whimpered in satisfaction in the backseat.
The second row it was sitting in was no longer shared with the prisoners being escorted.
The reserved seats for the prisoners were moved to the third row at the back to ensure that they were more narrow and "comfortable," so that the prisoners could fully enjoy the "superior" treatment once they were stuffed in.
The space in the third row was sacrificed to make the first two rows of the new car more comfortable.
Gold Nugget no longer needed to use its paws or the back of the chair to hold the tablet in place. It could directly connect the tablet to the LCD screen in front of it and slowly watch a series while lying down.
Next to it was a long hidden freezer that could hold more food and drinks.
The two seats in the second row could be lowered to a hundred and fifty degrees, allowing people to sleep on them in a nearly flat position.
This was for Selina.
Safety was more important in the front row. The seats couldn't be made like this, but the second row could be used as a temporary bed for her to rest on.
At the same time, this new car was also equipped with a weak artificial intelligence system that could be controlled remotely.
In the future, even if they needed to leave the car at the same time, there would be a car for them to follow and support them at any time.
Generally speaking, this car was similar to 007's car, except that it didn't have weapons like missiles, and mainly provided all kinds of logistical support.
Both Selina and the dog head in the second row were delighted with the upgraded ride.
With the new car, they would be more comfortable when they worked cases in the future.
When they arrived at the big office of the Detective Bureau, they saw Dustin lecturing a group of detectives in the conference room.
When Luke and Selina entered, he didn't greet them, and only paused for a moment.
After they sat down, Dustin continued, "The higher-ups aren't satisfied with our progress. Up until now, we haven't caught any big fish that's big enough. Are you guys worthy of your salary? Do you want to wait for those vigilantes to kill all these guys before collecting their corpses? "
The conference room was silent. None of the detectives said anything.
