On the other side, Wade had made ten thousand dollars and bought a few clothes for Vanessa that would bring fun to both of them. He had a good time for two days.
That night, he and Vanessa were sitting on the sofa, each reading a book.
The silence was suddenly broken. "Is there something wrong with the author's head? Why did he have to let Derrick Storm die for no reason? Or did he die with a big hole in his head? "
Vanessa nodded lazily. "That's Kasol. His books always surprise you."
Wade threw the book away angrily. "But I'm not here to see a male protagonist with a hole in his head. How did he die? Unless it turns into a fantasy, the series will be over. What kind of f * cking plot is this? "
Vanessa chuckled. "I remember when you first read this, you said it wasn't as good as Adventure Time?"
Wade said, "Of course. That's one of my favorite cartoons."
Vanessa could only kick him for cursing while eating. "Are you sure it's not good?"
Wade insisted on his choice and nodded. "It's not."
Vanessa suddenly stood up. "What if it's like this?"
She picked up the book in her hand and showed him an illustration in the book.
Wade curled his lip and turned his head when he saw the woman in the illustration. "She's really ugly."
Vanessa was very satisfied with his reaction. "What if I want to play a reenactment game?"
Wade sat up straight with a thud. "How?"
Vanessa drew circles on the illustration with her finger. "Of course, it's that kind of crime solving game! We don't have sunflowers at home, but we have roses. You can use ketchup for the blood, or maple syrup. As for the victim, it's me, of course! How about you play the murderer? "
Wade nodded his head crazily. "Okay, okay, that works."
Vanessa smiled. "I'm going to take a shower first, and then I'll start putting on makeup. You'll have to prepare the props for the reenactment."
Wade immediately jumped up and ran to the kitchen. "It'll be ready in five minutes."
Vanessa waved her hand and walked into the bathroom. The sound of water splashing could be heard.
Wade was in a flurry in the kitchen, rummaging through the cupboards and saying, "Where's the maple syrup? Damn it, that's all there is? Could it be ketchup? But sweeter would be better … "
Suddenly, a Cockney accent sounded not far from him. "Mr. Wade Wilson, it seems I've come at a bad time?"
Shocked, Wade turned around abruptly, grabbing a kitchen knife in his hand.
A black figure walked in from the balcony and closed the balcony door.
Looking at the person, the kitchen knife in Wade's hand fell to the kitchen counter with a clang. He exclaimed softly, "Smiling Face?"
Luke casually put down the big box in his hands. "As an uninvited customer, you should know my official name — V."
Wade froze for a moment and looked at him suspiciously. "You, you're not an imposter, are you?"
"That's up to you, Mr. Wilson." Luke chuckled. "But let's talk about a big business deal first."
He then gestured at the bathroom behind him. "It'll be done before your girlfriend comes out."
Wade was shocked. That was right. If this guy refused to leave, wouldn't he suffer a huge loss when Vanessa came out?
He nodded decisively. "Okay, what business?"
Fight? That was impossible.
Putting aside the question of who was stronger, Wade wouldn't do something so stupid given Vanessa's current state.
If he really wanted to beat up this intruder, he had to do it when Vanessa wasn't around.
Also, this was Vanessa's house.
He had been freeloading here for days. If he tore down the house again, Vanessa would probably flip out.
Luke, however, gestured at the big box on the left. "Let me show you the deposit first."
He pressed his hand on the big box and lifted it up. Stacks of green paper appeared in front of the two of them.
Wade's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow ~ Wow ~"
Luke said, "Mr. Wilson, I'd like to formally present you with a top-notch commission. Your rule is that 50% of the reward is required as a deposit for the highest-level commission. "
Wade murmured, "How much is this?"
He had never seen such a huge pile of money in front of him in his entire life.
Luke said, "Two and a half million dollars, all in unnumbered old bills."
Perfect for an idiot like you. He silently cursed a certain mercenary in his heart.
Wade's feet moved over without him realizing it.
He couldn't resist the gravity of the box of paper.
In front of money, he was as insignificant and helpless as a human being on Earth.
After taking two steps, there was a bang, and the pile of green paper disappeared. The wretched box covered their lovely figures again.
Luke asked, "Now, do you want to hear what the commission is about?"
Wade nodded without hesitation.
"At seven tomorrow night, I want you to spend an hour in the southwest corner of Staten Island …" said Luke.
Wade immediately nodded. "I'll do it."
His words came out of his mouth very quickly.
At that moment, Luke said the second half of the sentence at a normal speed, "… As V."
Wade nodded again, before he suddenly came back to himself. "Wait, what did you say? As V, stay there for an hour? "
Luke said, "That's right. I want you to stay there for an hour as the smiling man with a two million bounty on your head."
Wade's eyes widened. "Don't tell me you're looking for a scapegoat for this commission?"
Luke said, "Do you think you'll die so easily? Don't you have the confidence to survive as the self-proclaimed strongest Wade? "
"Of course I have a letter …" Wade said, "Ah, wait! There are at least hundreds of people in New York looking for you right now, and you want me to pretend to be you and die? I'm the strongest Wade, but I'm not Superman. There are hundreds of professional killers, not hundreds of pigs. "
Luke chuckled and shook his head. "If there were hundreds of pigs, would I need to pay five million? A lot of people would be willing to do it for five hundred dollars. "
Wade was lost for words.
The smiling masked man, the guy who called himself V, only had a bounty of two million. Didn't hundreds of killers come?
Luke said again, "Also, there are about 120 to 150 killers, not as many as you think."
Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Còm
Wade: … What's the difference? In any case, they were not pigs.
Looking at his expression, Luke continued, "Also, these people will receive word of your appearance at half past six in the evening."
Wade: "WTF?!"
Luke didn't think much of his disbelief. "Now, you can choose whether or not to accept this commission. You'd better hurry up. This request is only valid until your girlfriend comes out. "
