If he hadn't been picking up guests at the Continental Hotel for a while, Russell would have suspected that Charon was the middleman who took advantage of the price difference.
On the surface, the expedited fee of four gold coins is twice the information fee he paid yesterday, which is a little unreasonable.
However, considering the strength of the Punisher, the expedited fee of four gold coins is not unacceptable.
As the hotel's ace assassin, the hotel would not take advantage of him in this regard.
Without hesitation, Russell took out four gold coins from his pocket and placed them in front of Charon.
Charon took the gold coin and showed a professional smile that could not find any fault.
"Mr. Bradley, Mr. Winston asked me to tell you that during this period of time, you may consider taking a rest."
The Winston Charon mentioned was the manager of the Continental Hotel in New York.
Although Russell is the hotel's ace killer, he has only met Winston two or three times.
Winston specifically asked Charon to tell him this, just to remind him to keep a low profile.
The New York Police Department has not found out yet that he destroyed the textile factory, but the hotel knows everything.
It was in the hotel lobby yesterday that he accepted the commission for the cross.
His office was also burned down yesterday due to the battle between Cross and Punisher.
If the hotel can't guess this, Winston and the hotel's intelligence staff can resign collectively.
"Thank you Mr. Winston for your kindness. I have no plans to rest for the time being."
He will not stop until the Punisher dies.
You can only commit a thief in a thousand days, but you can't guard against a thief in a thousand days.
If the Punisher is not killed, there is no telling when the Punisher will find the apartment where he lives.
This guy is a paranoid in the true sense of the word.
Not to mention bombing an apartment with a rocket launcher, even if he uses C4 to blow up an apartment, as long as the Punisher feels it is necessary, he can do it without any psychological burden.
As for whether other residents of the apartment would be collateral damage, that was beyond his consideration.
Hotel speakeasy.
After paying the entrance fee of one gold coin, Russell sat down in an empty booth and asked the waiter for a bottle of whiskey.
Not long after he sat down, the iceberg-like beauty Perkins came over.
"You did the fraternity thing?"
Perkins lit a lady's cigarette and asked directly.
"There's no need to ask about such an obvious thing."
"Aren't you afraid of attracting the attention of the New York Police Department?"
"To arrest people, we need evidence. I am just a law-abiding private detective who never evades taxes."
Picking up the whiskey that the waiter had just brought, Russell poured himself and Perkins a glass and said with a smile.
A major case involving dozens of people's deaths will indeed attract the attention of the New York Police Department.
But Russell wasn't worried about this at all.
The bullets and pistol he used yesterday were both bought from the Continental Hotel and had never been used before.
Even if the New York Police Department found every bullet at the scene for ballistic comparison and detailed inspection, nothing would be found.
Except for the Brotherhood assassins he shot and killed, everyone else either died in his venom form or snatched away the cross.
Yesterday was the first time he used venom form.
Even if it wasn't, it would be impossible for the New York Police Department to find anything from the injuries on those corpses.
Before leaving the textile factory, he had confirmed that there was no monitoring equipment in the textile factory.
The only thing that may be directly related to him are the various rumors in the underground world.
But rumors cannot be used as evidence.
During the more than two years of working as a private detective and killer, he also met many powerful people.
Even without the help of the hotel, he could still use completely legal means to extricate himself from the textile factory incident.
On the surface, Beautiful Country is a country with a sound legal system.
But there are many rules that can be used.
Kingpin is a good example.
Everyone knows that Kingpin is the emperor of the New York underworld. The New York Police Department knows it, the district attorney knows it, and the mayor of New York also knows it.
But so what.
Kingpin is still alive and kicking.
Although Russell does not have as large a network of connections as Kingpin, it is not difficult for him to make a little use of existing legal rules.
"The Cross is dead. Now only the Punisher is left to deal with. How about adding me?"
Perkins spit out a circle and said slowly.
"You just escaped from him a few days ago. Aren't you afraid that you won't be so lucky this time?"
"If someone else wanted to deal with him, I would definitely consider it, but you are different. I have confidence in you."
Perkins has no intention of giving up.
She is a very vengeful woman.
"Then you may think too highly of me. Don't talk about taking action against him. I don't even know where he is now."
"Don't be so stingy. I know you don't like others to interfere in your actions. If you agree to let me join, I can pay you!"
"What reward?"
Perkins did not answer him immediately, but stood up and came to sit next to him.
Then, she whispered into his ear in a seductive tone: "I'll stay with you for three days, and you can do whatever you want to me."
While talking, Perkins also pressed his body against hers, allowing Russell to experience her softness firsthand.
To be honest, Perkins is indeed a very attractive woman.
However, Russell was not attracted by the rewards she said.
Are you kidding me?
This is not a reward, this is clearly Perkins taking advantage of him.
Oh, woman!
Don't think I'll be fooled!
"The reward is too expensive. I can't bear it. You'd better find someone else."
Russell rejected Perkins as usual.
Perkins has been craving for his body for more than a day or two. If he hadn't kept himself clean, he would have been eaten up by Perkins long ago.
"Are you still a man, or are you incompetent?"
Perkins is indeed an experienced female killer, and she always makes a big move.
I can not?
I don't know how many lines there are!
I just defeated a demigod last night!
A demigod who has the bloodline of Zeus, the King of Gods, and will most likely become the God of War in the future!
Although I know that Perkins is using aggressive tactics, I have to say that she is an elite female killer who understands the hearts of men very well.
"To tell you the truth, you are indeed very charming."
"As long as you say it, the men in the bar probably won't mind doing something pleasurable with you."
"I rejected you again and again, not because I am incompetent, nor because you are unattractive, but because I don't trust you."
Russell pulled away slightly and said slowly.
"Why?"
Perkins did not expect that this was the reason why Russell rejected him, so he asked.
"Because I think you might be an agent of SHIELD!" (Note 1)
