"There was no trace left in the morgue, and there was no clue in the surveillance. It was as if he disappeared out of thin air."
"Disappear into thin air?"
Of course Coulson wouldn't believe this explanation.
"The missing corpses are all ninjas from Shouhekai?"
"Yes."
Grant Ward nodded.
"I see."
Coulson understood.
This matter was most likely done by the Hand.
With their ability, it is still very possible to transport those corpses silently.
But why do they do this?
A lot of people died in the Hand Club in the past, but I had never heard of them transporting the corpses back specially.
"Do you want to learn some information from the corpse?"
Having lost so many people inexplicably, it is only natural that the Hand would want to learn information about their opponents from the corpses.
Reasonable.
In this way, the person who does this can almost 100% lock in the hand combination.
There is no reason or need for other people, or other forces, to do such a thing.
"The Hand."
Colson frowned.
He doesn't have a good impression of this international criminal organization.
Especially the recent human trafficking incident has brought his distaste for this organization to an extreme.
If it hadn't been for the sudden emergence of the Church of Dawn, he might have already applied to annihilate this evil Hand.
"Let's put the matter of the corpse aside for now."
Coulson finally said.
"Ward, what's the reaction from the Red Tiger Palace now?"
"Their reaction was a bit strange. At noon today, John, the master of the Red Tiger Palace, summoned all the people from the Red Tiger Palace back."
Grant Ward said.
"Have you summoned everyone back?"
"Yes, I heard that someone from the Black Dragon Gang seemed to have contacted John last night."
"Black Dragon Gang?"
Colson's eyes changed.
Almost instantly, I figured out what the purpose of the Black Dragon Gang was.
"They want to unite with Red Tiger Palace?"
In Hell's Kitchen, Kingpin is a mountain that cannot be bypassed.
As powerful as the Black Dragon Gang or the Red Tiger Palace, they were all far behind Jin Bing.
It doesn't take much thought to guess that the Black Dragon Gang wants to unite with the Red Tiger Palace to fight against Jin Bing.
"From the information revealed, the Black Dragon Gang does have this idea."
Grant Ward said.
"The Black Dragon Gang is the representative of Hell's Kitchen's old gang. Its strength may not be as strong as Kingpin, but it has been operating in Hell's Kitchen for decades, and even Kingpin may not be able to match it in terms of intelligence."
Colson said while thinking.
"The Black Dragon Gang must know the news about the Western District Offensive and Defensive Alliance. The question now is whether he told it, or whether he told the Red Tiger Palace completely about the news."
If it were him, he would most likely say half and half.
Keep that half as a bargaining chip.
Whether the Red Tiger Palace knows the complete information is an important basis for how they will respond.
"Ward, please continue to monitor the Red Tiger Palace closely. If you have any news, report it to me immediately!"
"Yes! Sir!"
Grant Ward is gone.
Colson looked at Grant Ward's figure and nodded secretly in his heart.
What a good seedling!
Among the five teams assigned by Nick Fury, Grant Ward's team should be the most outstanding.
In terms of completing missions in history, Grant's team is not inferior to some elite teams led by level seven agents.
"It is said that the bureau is planning to promote him to a seventh-level agent."
In S.H.I.E.L.D., agents above level eight are called senior agents, and they are the real high-level agents.
In the entire S.H.I.E.L.D., there aren't many senior agents.
Grant Ward is still less than thirty years old. If he can become a seventh-level elite agent at this age, it can be said that he will definitely be able to become a senior agent of SHIELD in the future.
"amazing!"
Colson admired in his heart.
This kind of growth experience is almost comparable to what he had back then!
Um.
The same goes for appearance.
Coulson was very satisfied that Nick Fury sent such a person to him.
The form of Hell's Kitchen is already extremely complicated, and now it has multiple forces intertwined together, and there are countless secrets hidden behind it.
But he only had less than one day left.
In such a short period of time, it is difficult to figure out a clue, let alone grasp them all.
Colson could only abandon the others and keep only the two major sections of the Western District Offensive and Defensive Alliance and the Red Tiger Palace.
Among them, the Western District Offensive and Defensive Alliance is the key.
This is a knife, a knife used to test the Red Tiger Palace.
In order to hold this knife in his hands, Coulson must focus most of his energy on it.
Originally, he was still thinking about what to do with the Red Tiger Palace.
But the arrival of Grant Ward resolved his concerns.
Next, he only needs to concentrate on dealing with the matters of the Western District Offensive and Defensive Alliance.
"Dick, how is the situation over there now?"
······
West District.
A large abandoned vehicle recycling facility.
In some remote corner.
"I see."
Dick hung up the phone.
Turn around and walk outside.
Sudden.
A voice came from the side.
"Dick, who are you talking to on the phone?"
Dick's pupils shrank, and he almost subconsciously reached for his waist, drew his gun and fired.
Fortunately he had it under control.
Turn around.
He said calmly.
"Willis, if you're not in there preparing for work later, why did you come out?"
The visitor is none other than Willis, the current second-in-command of the Western District Offensive and Defensive Alliance.
Willis smiled and said.
"I've almost finished my work, so I came out to take a breath. Unexpectedly, I just heard you calling here. Dick, I don't know who you are calling? Can you talk to me?"
After a pause, he said again.
"I don't mean anything else. It's just that at this critical moment, you know that we must be extremely cautious! If something happens, it will be bad for everyone, don't you think so?"
When he spoke, he always smiled, as if the two of them were chatting.
"That's true! Well, I was on the phone with an old lover of mine just now, asking her not to look for me during this period. I don't have time! You also know that about me...hehehehe!"
Dick showed a smile that every man knows.
"Oh! That's it, then I understand."
Willis looked surprised.
"It's almost time, how about we go back?"
"Of course, let's go back."
The two walked back laughing.
Not far away.
The lights were bright and hundreds of gangsters were waiting.
