Hearing Dix's name, Peggy Carter suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
Although she is British, she has been in New York for a year, and she still works in the intelligence department, so she naturally knows a lot about the situation in New York.
Basically, in New York during this period, there were three things not to mess with, and this was the same for agents like them.
The first one not to offend is naturally the huge number of wealthy people. Josie Kahn and Howard Stark whom she knows are the best examples. Of course, Howard's current situation is slightly worse, but that is a special reason.
As a result, under normal circumstances few people would be willing to mess with this guy.
The second thing not to mess with is the New York police. The premise of this article is to exclude the first category of people. After all, to a certain extent, the New York police are supported by the rich in New York.
But it is also because of this reason and the American judicial system that the New York Police, the largest local police agency in the United States, has become a special group that is difficult for outsiders to get involved and is quite united.
Most of the time, these half-black and half-white intelligence agencies have to avoid the New York police, otherwise it will be very troublesome if they get caught.
The third one not to mess with is the Mafia, whether it’s the Italian Mafia or the Irish Mafia.
These "parasites" dormant in the dark side of New York society are existences that all classes of New York society do not want to easily provoke.
The New York police and wealthy people are colluding with this group of people. Even the FBI has no way to deal with these guys.
There are countless low-level gangs, entangled in the side branches of the Mafia, forming an extremely large black power system.
And Peggy Carter believed that if she remembered correctly, the leader of the largest Irish mafia in New York was named Dix.
Your luck won't be that bad, right?
"Haha, it seems that this lady has heard of my name. Why don't you come up and have a drink?" Just when Peggy Carter was hesitant and wanted to give up, Dix seemed to see through her thoughts and extended an invitation.
road.
Needless to say, the Dicks in front of him is Lyndon Schneider's old partner. With the support of Josie and relying on the Blackwater armed forces, he killed most of the Jewish gangs in the United States in one fell swoop and helped the Irish gangs regain their position as the leader of the American underworld.
Dix, a former gangster who became a giant in the American underworld.
And the reason why he appeared in this nightclub today is also very simple. It was naturally arranged by Qiao Xi.
"Mr. Dix, I might..." Peggy Carter immediately wanted to refuse. Her target was the broker named Raymond, not the Irish mafia boss.
, but it is really possible to send yourself away.
"Oh, madam, your refusal will make me very embarrassed!" Dix shrugged, and several more guards gathered around Carter, obviously not allowing Carter to refuse the invitation.
"I happen to be a little thirsty too, so I won't bother Mr. Dix!" Upon seeing this, Carter immediately smiled and agreed.
From her perspective, it was not difficult to see that the thugs surrounding her were not little gangsters, but had obvious traces of military training. They were probably veterans. She knew that it would be difficult for her to fight with just two fists.
, decisively chose to compromise.
When you are alone with this Dix, there is no rush to find a way to escape.
But when Carter followed Dix into the large and luxurious office, and there was still a guard sitting near the door, Carter felt like scolding her.
Damn it, does this Dix even have to do things under the eyes of the guards? Isn't he too damn scared?
"Okay, ma'am, don't be so nervous. Let's talk about it, the police? FBI? Or some other special agency?" However, just as Carter was complaining in his heart, Dix poured her a glass of red wine. Other than that,
Besides, he didn't mean to do anything to her, but asked straight to the point.
"Mr. Dix, you misunderstood. I just want to negotiate a deal with the original boss here, Mr. Raymond... and have no other intentions!" Peggy Carter said, trying to calm down.
"Oh...that's right. Okay, then you can talk to him...Frank!" Dix nodded slightly after hearing this, and then said to the guard sitting at the door.
The guard named Frank at the door smiled slightly when he heard this, then walked to a large wardrobe in the office and opened it.
Seeing the situation inside the big closet, Peggy Carter couldn't help but shrink her eyes.
Because the things inside were two corpses molded of flesh and blood.
One of them was the broker she was looking for, Raymond. The other was a relatively thin white man, but she didn't have any information.
Okay, now Carter understands that today he has met with great bad luck. If he encounters a gang fight, the person he is looking for has already been killed.
"Look, ma'am, he's right there... Is there anything you want to say?" Dix said jokingly, pointing to Raymond's body.
"Well, in that case, Mr. Dix, let me tell you the truth. The purpose of my coming here is to get a chemical formula. If that thing is really in his hand, then
Now, I should be in your hands, maybe we can make a deal, how about that?" Seeing this, Peggy Carter forced herself to calm down and said.
"Look, it's so good to get straight to the point. I knew you were here for that thing." Dix smiled after hearing this, sat on the boss's chair in the office, then opened the drawer and took out a round ball from inside.
Seeing this round ball, Peggy Carter's eyes widened. "Mr. Dix, don't you mean to say that the molecular formula has been weaponized and is this thing?"
"Yes, that's it." Dix said, throwing the ball towards Peggy Carter.
Peggy Carter, who had heard about the dangers of this thing from Howard Stark, resisted the urge to run away, hurriedly caught the ball, and held it carefully in her hands.
"Hahahahaha, madam, don't be so nervous. I know the danger of this thing. In fact, we have already dealt with it. It is safe now and will not explode!" Seeing Peggy Carter's nervous look, Dix
I couldn't help but laugh.
Hearing Dix's words, Peggy Carter suddenly had the urge to pull out her gun and push this bad-tempered Irishman out of the wormhole. Why didn't you tell me earlier what you had done?
"So it seems that Mr. Dix knows a lot about this thing?" But after calming down, Peggy Carter discovered the key information in Dix's words.
"This is normal. This lady of unknown origin, don't forget who I am! Although we often do some bad things, the main purpose is to make money... and this kind of dangerous thing
, although it can be sold for a lot of money, it will only cause greater damage and trouble to our other industries. These guys will be worthy of death if they engage in such dangerous things on our territory!" Dix snorted coldly.
said one voice.
As Dix said, although most of what the mafia does is illegal, most of the time, it is they who want the overall social stability the most.
Because only when the overall society is stable, customers of their various businesses can make money safely and spend money with them, so that they can make money continuously.
Only those low-level gangsters who haven't squatted down after eating a meal will think about doing those one-shot deals all day long.
"What do you mean, Mr. Dix?" Carter couldn't help but feel something in his heart when he heard what Dix said.
"Madam, I can see that you are an official. In fact, I think we can completely cooperate on this matter and find all these rats hiding in the sewers..." Dix said slowly.
Carter's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this.
As someone with an intelligence background, she certainly understands what this means.
When she was in the UK, she often cooperated with some local gangs in the UK, making them her spies.
Many times, these people are even better informed than various intelligence agencies.
"Mr. Dix, I am very happy to get your help, but you should know that our cooperation cannot be recognized by the higher authorities. At most, I can only make a commitment to cooperate with you in my personal capacity.
!" Carter said with a slight turn of his eyes.
"Of course, I understand this very well, and this is why I chose you, madam, as our partner. After all, many times, the reputation of Captain America is a guarantee, which is much more reliable than any official promise." Dix also said with a smile.
.
After hearing Dix's words, Carter's face suddenly darkened, "So you already knew my identity!"
Dix did not speak, but looked at the guard named Frank.
"Frank Sherran, who served in the 45th Infantry Division, met you and Captain America when he was in Italy!" Frank introduced himself.
This Frank was the first one among Dicks and his gang to quit the gang for his fiancée, quit the gang and join the army.
But unfortunately, after several years of military career, although he returned to the United States with a generous retirement allowance, his fiancée had already found another man for him. For this reason, he was negative for a while, and
Not long ago, I found out that my old buddy Dix has now become a gangster, and then he came to join us.
During those years in Europe, he not only met Captain America and Carter, but also met Josie and Vito - it's just that the latter two didn't know it yet. After all, to them, Frank Shea was just a soldier.
Lan is not worthy of their attention at all.
In fact, the same goes for Carter. She has no impression of Frank at all, but she still knows about the 45th Infantry Division.
The first performance of the American team in Italy was in the 45th Infantry Division, and the 45th Infantry Division was the main division on the Italian battlefield at that time. If it were not for the American team, its various achievements would be comparable to those of Bucky's 107th Infantry Division.
The 28th Infantry Division to which the Corps belongs is much larger.
"I see, yes, I can promise our cooperation in the name of Captain America... Then Mr. Dix, can you tell me more information?" Peggy Carter finally nodded and agreed.
In order to cooperate with Dix, he also made a guarantee in the name of Captain America.
Although Carter has always disliked the outside world tying herself to Captain America, she is not averse to making some compromises if it is to do something right.
"Of course, the person next to Raymond is the guy who stole Howard Stark's fresh storage. After our interrogation, we also learned that the person belonged to an organization called Leviathan!" Seeing Carter
After making the guarantee, Dix nodded and told the information he knew.
"Leviathan? What kind of organization is that?" Peggy Carter asked with a frown.
"If our investigation is correct, it is an agency of the big country opposite, and its nature is similar to that of the CIA." Dix replied.
"So that's it. No wonder most of the technologies that Howard lost appeared in the area of the Bear Country." Peggy Carter suddenly realized that in this case, everything makes sense.
"Speaking of which, this matter was actually the fault of Howard Stark himself..." Dix added.
"How do you say that?" Peggy Carter asked in confusion.
"I don't know, Ms. Carter, do you know something called night light potion?" Dix asked.
"...You even know this?" Carter frowned. These mafia gangs are too powerful, right?
"Haha, I actually just found out from him that he couldn't speak, so he could only write... Ms. Carter should read it herself!" Dix smiled and handed a piece of paper to Carter.
Carter took the paper doubtfully, but after reading the content on it, she understood why Dix said that.
It turns out that Leviathan's first team members were the survivors of the furry bear camp that suffered a tragedy due to Howard's night light potion.
At that time, only four people in the entire battalion survived. Except for one military doctor, Jonah Fenhof, who put on a gas mask in time, the remaining three people all received the first aid method of Fenhoff's laryngeal intubation to survive.
, so they all lost the ability to speak.
And Lit Bennis, who died with Raymond, was also one of the three people. Among the other two, one of them had already been executed when he chose to refuse when being recruited by Leviathan, and the remaining
The one named Sasha Demidov came to the United States with Lit Bennis to perform a hidden mission.
As for the military doctor Jonah Fenhof, he had become a high-ranking member of Leviathan, so they didn't know his whereabouts.
Obviously, as an espionage agency, the Leviathan sent to the United States will definitely not be the only two followers, Lit Bennis and Shasha. There will definitely be more responders, just as downline agents.
Bennis himself doesn't even know.
And Lit Bennis chose to sell the technologies he stole because he had actually betrayed Leviathan, so he wanted to sell a batch of goods in exchange for money and run away.
I just didn't expect that he was dealing with Raymond, so Dix came to the door first.
"Thank you so much. This information is very important to me!" After reading it, Carter thanked Dix.
"You're welcome, we just benefit from each other!" Dix waved his hand.
"In that case, I'll take my leave first. I have a lot of important work to do next!" Carter nodded, raised the information in his hand and said.
"Of course, you're welcome!" Deeks shrugged.
Carter left in a hurry.
"Boss, everything is settled, she has no doubts!" After Carter left, Dix picked up the phone, dialed and reported to the other party.
"That's fine, you can just do your own thing next!" On the other end of the phone, Qiao Xi, who had just finished basic training in gun fighting, said breathlessly.
