The inside and outside of the manor were decorated with a festive atmosphere, Santa Claus was made out of snow on the lawn, colored lights and strips were put up outside the main house, and Christmas trees lined both sides of the main road.
At an exaggeratedly long dining table, more than twenty people ate together in a cheerful atmosphere.
Peter was extremely dishonest when he sat next to Hong Fei, and he already showed a bit of a talkative nature at a young age.
The food that Mei had worked hard for most of the day to prepare was wiped out by a group of people without wasting any of it.
In such a festival, Hong Fei can be regarded as following the guests and accompanying them throughout the whole process.
As the only child present, Peter received gifts from everyone, and his entire room was almost filled with boxes of all sizes.
When dinner was over, Peter rushed back impatiently.
Hong Fei walked on the snow with Frank.
Frank: "That female doctor, I thought you would invite her over."
"I invited her out of courtesy, but she has her own arrangements."
"That's such a shame."
Hong Fei turned around: "Are you thinking too much?"
Frank said matter-of-factly: "What's the big deal? You're still young, don't lose face, just think about it, there's no need to pretend."
"I do not want."
"Tough talk."
Suddenly, bright fireworks rose over the city in the distance, and the bright light illuminated most of the night sky.
The two of them looked up for a moment, and Frank said again: "The Mafia seems not to have been misled by you. They have nothing wrong with the Hand."
"Um?"
"Now in New York, they are the only two families left that go hand in hand. The guy you killed, his father was very angry, but he didn't take any action. Moreover, they have been very calm recently without any conflict."
Hong Fei suddenly smiled.
"Before the storm, there is always a peaceful time. Just wait, they will definitely fight. The Mafia does not belong to one person. No one except his father cares about it. They may even be eager to kill one of their colleagues. Now the excuse is gone
It's in their hands. If these people can really hold back, then they are not gangsters, but politicians."
Frank nodded in approval and added: "The entanglement between gangs and politicians is very deep. Many district councilors are frequent visitors to gangs."
"After all, they are professionals, and in a capitalistic society, as long as you can come up with money, not many people will care where your money comes from."
"Then you have to pay taxes first!"
Hong Fei laughed for a moment: "Hahaha, that makes sense. Do you think I handed it over?"
In the following days, Hong Fei played with Peter for a while, until Mei subdued the wild horse in Peter's heart with her stern eyes and cold tone, and took him back this time.
In mid-to-late January, Hong Fei received a call from Zhao Hailun.
The other party invited him to meet in New York and formally signed the agreement.
After the Punisher, Hong Fei is about to welcome his second accomplice.
At seven o'clock, Hong Fei changed into a suit and Number 1 drove him into New York.
It was still the same hotel, but this time he went directly to the rooftop restaurant. Under the guidance of the waiter, he soon saw Helen Zhao, who was wearing a black dress and sitting by the window.
After the pleasantries were exchanged, Helen Zhao took out a generous contract.
"Mr. Hong, I have read the contract. There are no problems. I have signed it."
These few dozen pieces of paper are worth half a billion dollars.
Hong Fei took it and put it aside, then picked up the wine glass: "Welcome to join."
"Thanks!"
After the ding sound, Hong Fei took a sip, and his facial features suddenly wrinkled.
It tastes so bad!
Upon seeing this, Helen Zhao said: "Mr. Hong, does it not suit your taste?"
Hong Fei shook his head: "No, I have never drunk before."
"Sorry, I don't know." Zhao Helen smiled in astonishment.
"It's okay, the environment here is good." Hong Fei turned to look at the night view of the city, "Have you considered the location of the laboratory?"
"Of course, New York is very good, but I hope to keep a certain distance from the city, but not too far."
Hong Fei pointed to the mountains in the distance behind him: "How is it there?"
Zhao Hailun looked at the past and asked uncertainly: "Is there a suitable place there?"
"Well, I live over there. It's big enough to build a laboratory that meets your needs. Of course, I can also apply to open up a new piece of land. The scenery there is very nice."
After thinking for a while, Helen Zhao nodded and said: "It seems that you have thought about it. I think I have no reason to refuse."
It's just an address. As long as it's not in a remote area with inconvenient transportation, there's nothing to argue about.
The two of them ate in silence, and suddenly several rumbling thunders sounded in the dark sky.
Hearing the thunder, Hong Fei's first reaction was to look up at Helen Zhao.
The handsome doctor in front of me will become a fan of Thor in the future, but I don’t know whether she likes thunder or muscles.
Hong Fei looked out the window with a glass of water in his hand, and suddenly his eyes paused.
Among the high-rise buildings, fire suddenly burst out on the street in the distance.
Then, the explosion range gradually extended, and gunshots were faintly heard.
Seeing a car flying up, falling and then suddenly detonating, Hong Fei stood up suddenly.
Helen Zhao was surprised at first, then followed Hong Fei's gaze and couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the restaurant noticed this scene, and everyone rushed to the window to look at it in amazement.
The crowded vehicles on the street were opened up by a black spot one after another and then exploded. Rapid and continuous gunshots echoed between the buildings. Everyone looked at it in shock and confusion. Many people had already taken out their mobile phones and started recording.
Hong Fei's eyes were even more astonished.
He also did not expect that he would encounter this incident at this unprepared time.
"Number one!"
He shouted at the door, and No. 1 rushed in. He had also discovered the strange changes outside. He looked at the latest photos and videos on his phone, and kept saying: "Boss, there is a monster on the street. It seems like
It's the Hulk that has been in the news before. It is wreaking havoc and the military is exchanging fire with it. Let's leave quickly."
Hong Fei frowned and pushed the shocked Zhao Helen in front of No. 1.
"Take her back to the manor and don't get close to the place where the incident occurred."
"Yes, boss."
Hong Fei took a step to leave, but Helen Zhao suddenly grabbed his wrist: "Wait, aren't you leaving?"
"I want to take a look." After saying that, he looked down.
Helen Zhao immediately let go.
Hong Fei quickly rushed out of the restaurant and dialed Frank's phone number.
"Notify everyone and act immediately, big life is coming!"
"What?"
"Don't ask for now, I'll look at my phone later. Let's quickly gather and set off. The destination is Harlem. Also, those little guys are useless. Everyone brings me the big one, the biggest one!"
