"Shafrin." Murakami frowned, "It's a name I've never heard of before. Do any of you remember it?"
The three Hand leaders shook their heads together.
You know, the Hand is a large-scale organization that occupies the world, and these four people are the supreme leaders who lead the Hand. They are in different regions and in different fields. Each of them is a big man who can shake the world. However, there is such a powerful person in the world.
There was an existence that even the four of them were completely unaware of.
Mrs. Gao said before that she had heard of Shafrin's name. In fact, it was just polite. Just like the ancient martial arts warriors like to "look up" to each other no matter which side they meet. To put it bluntly, it is a business exchange.
.In fact, the Hand's understanding of this Shafrin is nothing more than rumors circulating among New York gangs. And where did this rumor come from? It is said that it came from Kingpin...
Such a figure who never saw the beginning of the dragon number one immediately attracted the attention of the leaders. They believed that the reason why they knew nothing about the other party must be because the other party was too powerful, as if most ordinary people had not heard of it.
Just like the existence of their Hand.
As for "Shafrin", it was actually just fabricated out of thin air and does not exist at all?
They didn't think about it for a second.
The story can be fabricated, but can the deaths of Nobu Yoshioka and Mrs. Gao still be used as a cover-up?
"I only have the only possible clue here." Alexandra thought for a moment and said, "Most of the gangsters seem to prefer that Richard Lee, the newspaper owner of the Daily Planet, is connected with this mysterious force, but I specifically
We sent people to investigate, but there seems to be no definite evidence to prove it. Those gangsters are just making random guesses, and there is no actual evidence."
This is the most interesting thing about rumors - they will continue to grow and upgrade themselves as they spread again and again.
In fact, the image of "Shafrin" itself was born out of thin air because Kingpin insisted that Richard had such a mysterious backstage. But later, when the name spread, Kingpin was confused about the origin of the name.
It was kept secret. So the vast number of "smart" people used their wisdom to make up their own minds, and gave this name an unfathomable background, an extremely terrifying force...
In the current version, due to lack of evidence, the name "Shafrin" has no direct connection with their Daily Planet.
"Newspaper company?" Suowanda expressed doubt, "What relationship can such a big shot have with a newspaper company?"
"I don't know, but I don't rule out the possibility." Alexandra said.
Botu, a hand leader with a beard, said in a deep voice: "No matter what, we can't let go of any possibility. I can arrange the manpower now, let's go and arrest that Richard Lee and question him...
....”
"This matter cannot be reckless." Alexandra interrupted, "This may be the most serious situation our Hand has ever encountered. We must proceed with caution. First, we need to mobilize manpower and resources, if necessary.
We even have to activate 'Black Sky'. We must be fully prepared...for war!"
...
As the main culprit who caused panic to such a large world-class organization, Richard knew nothing about it. Not only that, he was also leisurely preparing today's dinner in his kitchen at the moment.
After making dinner, he put the plate on the table and shouted loudly: "Hey, are you there? It's time to eat."
After a while, Jessica slowly moved out of her room. Her originally beautiful hair was a little messy. She was wearing a gray-black T-shirt on her upper body that seemed to have not been washed in two days, and jeans on her lower body that seemed to be dirty.
A bit crooked.
Richard couldn't help but wonder whether all girls were so careless about image in their own personal space...or was Jessica a special case?
Jessica went straight to the dining table and sat down. Before she could start, Richard tapped the mouth of the bowl loudly with his chopsticks: "Wash your hands before eating."
Jessica glanced at him and whispered: "It's been washed."
Richard kept looking at her with a sneer. Haha, do you believe this?
In the end, Jessica couldn't resist his staring eyes and cursed in a low voice, but finally got up obediently and washed her hands...
In fact, Jessica herself didn't quite understand why she had to be so obedient. Just like Richard said before that he was not allowed to drink, she really hasn't touched a drop of wine since then.
Is it because he is the boss and landlord, and he is afraid that if he doesn’t listen, his salary will be deducted and the rent will be increased?
Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be the case. Even if she insists on not listening to Richard, even if she insists on not listening to something as small as washing her hands before eating, it won't be boring to the point of being too embarrassing.
After washing her hands, Jessica returned to the table and glanced at the forks and spoons placed at her place. She thought for a moment and seemed to have finally made up her mind...
"I don't want this." She pointed to the spoon on the table, "Bring me a pair of chopsticks too."
Richard raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Ever since she broke a pair of chopsticks for the first time, Jessica had used a spoon and fork for every meal and never mentioned it again. Why did she suddenly have to challenge herself again this time?
"Are you sure?" He felt that he needed to confirm again.
"Just stop talking nonsense to me."
Jessica hummed. Although she would never admit it to Richard, in fact, after that, she went to YouTube to search for video tutorials on how to use chopsticks, and practiced hard for a while. That gaffe was really embarrassing.
, is the stain on her Jessica Jones life. This time she will definitely wash away the shame of the past...
"All right."
Since she insisted, Richard let her go. He stood up, took away the spoon and fork, and replaced her with a pair of wooden chopsticks like his own.
Not to mention, Jessica was really good at using chopsticks this time. Although her movements were a little stiff, her posture was pretty standard.
Richard said unexpectedly: "Huh? You've made great progress. Have you practiced it yourself?"
Jessica was a little proud: "No, just thinking about it, it doesn't seem to be very difficult."
She lied. In fact, she secretly took two pencils and pretended to be chopsticks in the office every day these days. Whenever there was no one around, she practiced secretly...
Sure enough, hard work pays off.
Jessica was about to use her chopsticks to taste the first bite of delicious food, but she paused when she saw today's recipe, and the smile froze on her face.
Today's recipe...is a mapo tofu.
