Now that Jenny had been found, she would be sent to the American plane soon. William said he would wait a day just to keep Claude in check.
Finishing the whiskey in one gulp, Claude thought about how tense the situation in Paris was. He had killed dozens of people last night, and it would be too dangerous to kill Mourad himself. It was better to ask Carlos of the Cross for help. After all, Carlos was the king of assassins.
He took out an unused cell phone from the storage space and called Carlos.
The call went through quickly. "Help me do something. Take care of someone in Paris secretly tomorrow night. I'll send you the photo later."
"Got it. I'm in Switzerland right now. It's easy to get to Paris. I'll be there in about six hours. Let's talk when we meet. William, I have something I need your help with."
"Okay, see you tonight." After hanging up, William sat on the sofa and pondered. What would Carlos need from him? Could it be about the Brotherhood of Assassins? If that was the case, William would have to think about it carefully. He didn't want to be targeted by Sloan, the boss of the Brotherhood of Assassins.
Just as he was thinking about the gains and losses, William received a call from Brian. He picked up the phone with a smile and heard Brian's excited and incoherent voice. "God bless me, William, I don't know how to thank you."
"Haha, you got a call from Jenny?"
"Yes, she's still talking to her mother. She's very grateful to you, William. I can finally have a good night's sleep. But how did you do it, William? Why would the people at the underground auction send Jenny to you?"
"Haha." People from the secret service were suspicious of everything. "Brian, it's actually very simple. We both ignored the fact that as long as you have money, there's nothing you can't sell at the underground auction. To put it bluntly, Brian, you and I are both fools. We have money but we don't know how to use it. We've been poor for too long. When something happens, we only think about using the means we're best at.
I have some ideas. "After hearing William's words, Brian was silent for a few minutes. In the end, he sighed and said," Okay, let's meet in America. William, I know what you want to talk about. Sigh, if it was ten years ago, I wouldn't have asked to meet you. I might have even killed you. But I've retired and my superiors don't need me anymore. I should think about Jenny, so I'll wait for you in America, William. "
"Good... I'm glad you understand. after I settle the matter. I'll personally send Jenny back to America and see her come back to you."
"Matter?" Brian asked, puzzled.
"Haha, the parent of our enemy is coming to France. Don't you think I should pay him a visit? And we can't leave any trouble behind if we want to work together. We have to be as clean as a piece of white paper. "
Brian immediately understood William's words. "Haha, that's right. It's time to greet him. You have to finish what you started. It's perfect for a family to be reunited. Is there anything I can do?"
William gave it some thought and said, "Get the scavenger ready. The situation in Paris is tense right now. We have to leave some professional matters to the professionals to avoid any accidents. Also, get the scavenger to deal with the corpse in the basement of the safe house."
"No problem. I still have more than a hundred gold coins from the Continental Hotel. It's enough to pay the scavenger and his dung beetles."
"Dung beetles? Hahaha, I didn't know you had such a sharp tongue, Blaine. Alright, help me track down Claude's whereabouts or find someone you know to lure him to a secluded place. I need to get rid of him. "
"Understood. I'll give you a call when I'm ready." As expected of someone with decades of experience in the field, Brian didn't even ask why William wanted to get rid of Claude. He knew it had to have something to do with his daughter, so he agreed right away.
Two hours later, William received Brian's reply. "I used my informant in France to get in touch with Claude. The informant told Claude that he has information about White Palace for him. The meeting will be at nine in the evening at an old factory on Bellot Street.
I know Claude well. For the sake of his promotion, he'll definitely meet the informant alone. Be careful, William. "
"Don't worry, I'll be careful."
At six o 'clock in the evening, William, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses and a beard, met Carlos of the Cross at an ordinary roadside cafe in Paris. The two of them sat a few meters away from each other, back to back, and ate some food and coffee quietly.
A few minutes after Carlos paid the bill and left, William got up and followed Carlos. At a corner, the two of them looked at each other, and William nodded to indicate that no one was following them. Carlos then brought William to a roadside parking lot, threw a black helmet to William, and got on the Yamaha R6 that he had prepared. He roared the accelerator and drove into a small forest.
William took off his helmet and patted his Yamaha R6 excitedly. He loved heavy-duty motorcycles a lot in his past life. Any one he saw cost tens of thousands of dollars. Medium ones cost around two hundred thousand was a piece of cake. William didn't even dare to think about buying anything better.
William couldn't bear to spend tens of thousands of celestial coins in his past life. He could only try his luck at car shows and try his luck.
Seeing William like the R6 so much, Carlos laughed and said, "If you like it so much, you can buy a better one. These two R6s are illegal. The normal ones cost less than two thousand dollars. You'll have to get rid of them when you're done with them."
"Hehe, looks like you've been doing well recently, Carlos. Have you gone to see your son and improve his life?"
Carlos' expression darkened when he heard William mention his son. William began to worry. Did something happen to Wesley? He was still waiting for Carlos to take the initiative to introduce himself to Wesley so he could recruit him. "What's wrong? Did something happen to Wesley? "
Carlos thought for a few seconds, then shook his head and said, "There's something Henry didn't tell you. I didn't leave Group W after Henry passed away. I left Group W seven years before Henry passed away and secretly joined an assassin organization."
Hearing about the assassin organization, William immediately understood what Carlos was talking about. He was shocked. It can't be, right? The fiercest member of the Assassin Brotherhood, Cross, was secretly sent by his grandfather Henry to infiltrate the Assassin Brotherhood?
"People in our family have a very high chance of awakening a superpower. Their adrenaline secretion is several times or even dozens of times higher than normal people, and they won't die. This allows us to have eyesight and movement speed that are several times higher than normal people. If we train well, people in our family are born assassins.
"On a winter day 20 years ago, two men in black suits suddenly barged into my house. I had no choice but to hide Wesley, who was 4 years old, behind a bridge. I took a bullet to lure the assassins away and escaped several cities, but I still couldn't hide from them.
"Finally, when I escaped to a forest outside Oxford, the fear of death made me realize why my heart would race every time I was nervous. During the final confrontation with the two assassins, because I suddenly gained a superpower, the two assassins thought that I had lost all ability to resist and wanted to take me away. However, they were careless and were killed by my dagger, who was several times faster.
"However, because of the two days of non-stop running and the gunshot wound, I fainted in the forest and was saved by Henry, who was looking for a Christmas tree in the forest.
Speaking of which, I really have to thank you, William. "
"What are you thanking me for? 20 years ago, before Christmas, I was only a few days old. Why are you thanking me?"
