Chapter 29: 29 - Daddy Kingpin
Chapter 29: 29 - Daddy Kingpin
"Deepest desires often breed extreme hatred. Conversely, extreme hatred arises from deeply-rooted desires, and Vladimir is no exception to this," Kingpin explained as he stood tall, his back against Wesley.
His eyes stared out of the window, overlooking the bustling New York below him like a king looking over his kingdom.
Shaking the red wine in his hand, Kingpin said, "Sooner or later, Vladimir's hatred will pull him into the abyss. What we have to do now is to wait patiently. We don't need to talk to him again. Soon, he will beg us for help himself."
His tone was very calm, no one could question the weight of the words in any way.
Kingpin was born into a gangster family in Hell's Kitchen. He was abused by his father when he was young. His scarred childhood made him even more eager for the right to life and death.
Kingpin was able to walk to the end of the current criminal road because he broke through bloody fights and challenges one by one. Those who questioned him became one of the many corpses on his road to the peak.
"I see."
Wesley nodded, and a glimmer of light flashed through his glasses. "There is one more thing I need to report to you. It is about the two Warehouse attackers. The people we sent secretly sent us some information."
"Is their identity confirmed?"
Kingpin unconsciously touched the cuff button on his right hand.
"After investigation, one of them was found to be a recently well-known criminal killer. Some people call him the Punisher, who hunts and kills criminals. There is no relevant record of his identity information. It may take a lot of time to find out about his whereabouts. "
"As for the other attacker his situation is quite special..."
Speaking of this, Wesley paused for a moment, he didn't know how to explain the rest to Kingpin.
"Go on!"
Sensing Kingpin's displeasure, Wesley immediately said, "Our people have seen the face of that mercenary. It is said that he is an Asian, but all their statements are a little different."
Wesley's expression looked strange, "Some people said that the man came from a distant oriental country, some said he was a migrant worker and a small group said he was the famous movie star, Jackie Chan. All of them sounded very sure of their ideas."
"..."
Hearing these words, even Kingpin, a well-informed underworld boss, was a little speechless.
Why would Jackie Chan quit making movies and become a mercenary?
Kingpin was completely speechless. He looked at Wesley and asked, "As the employer, can't you know the identity of the employee?"
Wesley shook his head and continued, "I'm afraid not. The commission we issued was carried out on the dark web and the information of both parties was completely confidential. The only thing that can be determined is that there was only one person who accepted the commission. The punisher guy just appeared there like a variable."
"It seems that the person who accepted the entrustment is also not someone ordinary. Originally, we just wanted to find a completely innocent outsider to disrupt the transaction with the Russian Ross gang. After secretly eliminating Anatoly and Kaqi all the blame would be put on the guy's head."
Kingpin spoke slowly, with an imperceptible amount of surprise in his eyes.
"Unexpectedly, this person had the ability to eliminate all men at once. Our people had no chance to make a move. What surprises me, even more, is that the people sent by Vladimir not only failed to stop them but also they all died"
The employer of Derrick's entrustment was the New York underworld's Kingpin.
It was also due to this reason that Derrick's commission went so smoothly.
That is how he knew the exact location of the drug deal.
Although Kaqi had just started working for him, Kingpin did not trust him at all.
Moreover, only after the death of Kaqi, the leader of the drug trafficking organization, could Kingpin annex Kaqi's drug trafficking organization and completely turn Kaqi's power into his own.
But, compared with this, Kingpin had a larger vision in the longer term. What he really wanted was the transportation job of the Russian Ross gang and their land.
As long as he could take over all the transportation jobs, his power could expand again later.
Kingpin was not nervous about Vladimir suspecting his plan at all. After all, in everyone's eyes, his men and goods were lost too, and he has also issued a reward. Perfectly portraying himself as a victim alongside Vladimir.
And, all the anger accumulated by Vladimir would be vented on the murderer who killed Anatoly in the end. Once Vladimir kills the murderer, all the truth and shreds of evidence behind this plan would be buried forever.
This is all a part of Kingpin's plan.
His planning ability and cruelty were enough to make people feel chills.
However, there were huge numbers of loopholes in this perfect plan too.
That is, the Warehouse attacker wasn't caught and still roamed freely.
Moreover, the other party also escaped from Vladimir's pursuit and even the people Kingpin secretly arranged failed to take action to stop him.
Kingpin was lost in his thoughts. No one knew what he was thinking.
After a long time, Kingpin said again, "Wesley, tell Vladimir the identity of the punisher. Let the punisher restrain Vladimir for now."
"Also, do everything possible to find the person who accepted our commission."
"...Kill him as soon as you find him."
