However, I quickly put away this ridiculous idea.
stuffy! Not so boring!
This guy seems to be very gentle in every move, but he doesn't give you a chance to breathe and hesitate at all... He doesn't give you a chance to speak sweetly either!
After putting down the napkin, he immediately picked up a red wooden box next to him, took out a cigar from it and lit it, and at the same time, with his other hand, he gently took out the old Browning pistol , put it on the table, and rub it gently.
Then, Gao Qi raised his head and looked at me...
"Well, my friend. As I said, I am a person who does not like to waste time. And I have made it very clear why I invited you here. I think you must have been carefully Consider this question. Now, let me know your answer." Gao Qi still spoke in a tepid tone, accompanied by his hoarse voice.
I was still in silence, as if nothing had happened, he whispered to himself slowly: "I want to give you benefits, you can't refuse me..."
He slowly uttered this adapted movie line, and then a sharp edge finally appeared on the face of the godfather of the Gambino family! He stared at me, pressed one hand on the cigar box, one hand on the Browning pistol, and then he pushed gently with both hands at the same time...
brush…
The cigar box and the pistol were pushed not far in front of me at the same time.
There was a hint of awe in Gao Qi's eyes: "My left hand is friendship, and my right hand is bullets. Now, my friend, make your choice."
I feel my palms are sweating!
real! I have met many mafia characters at the hero level, whether it is Suo Lin, Mr. Yang Er, or Ba Ye, they have never given me such a sense of oppression that is almost suffocating! Although he has always been calm and gentle, he has always tightly suppressed your aura! That is a coercion accumulated by an ancient family!
stuffy! Really boring! In the past, even when I was facing old Sorin, I could calmly speak out and move him with words. But when facing this guy, I suddenly felt helpless! It's as if I don't have any gaps to break through... everything is airtight!
Looking at the cigar box and the Browning pistol in front of me, I couldn't reach out my hand!
Do you choose cigars? Then I have to give in to the godfather of the mafia in front of me, and then give up a part of the business with both hands... I was summoned by him like this, for a dinner, under his threat, I dare not even fart, obediently obey
... The blue veins on my forehead are beating faintly!
Choose a pistol
Well... not a friend, then an enemy!
But, do I have the right to turn against Gao Qi? Do I have the strength to challenge him
Obviously, I didn't! Even though I'm doing pretty well now. But fundamentally, my foundation is shallow. Although the big circle is well-known, it still has little influence in the United States. In the United States, more are still the sites of these traditional families! As for Gao Qi in front of him, he is not an ordinary gang boss, he is the "Godfather"! He is the real "Godfather!" Behind him stands a brilliant and legendary family! At the same time, he can also affect all the mafia families in the United States!
At this time, as I, Chen Yang, can I challenge him head-on
I'm afraid, once I choose a gun, I may not be able to walk out of this door tonight!
"Whenever there is a big event, be calm!" I reminded myself heavily in my heart.
Under the emotional tension, I couldn't help changing my sitting posture. Because I once heard Bao Yazhou say that when people cannot control their emotions or tension or excitement, it will be very helpful to change their posture a little bit.
I sat up straight, put my legs together, and took a few deep breaths. I didn't rush to answer Gao Qi's question, but took out a cigarette from my pocket, put it in my mouth, reached out and took the silver candlestick in front of me, and lit the cigarette with the fire on the candle.
hiss...
While the smoke was puffing and puffing, Gao Qi's face was under the candlelight, and the shadow swayed on his face.
I suddenly had a strange idea in my heart...
I am nervous. And he may not be as calm as the expression on his face!
Then, I laughed.
Under Gao Qi's staring gaze, I deliberately stretched out my hand slowly, and then slowly pressed my palm on the Browning pistol in front of me...but I didn't take it back immediately, I just pressed it on it !
At the same time, I quietly paid attention to Gao Qi's face. Sure enough, when my hand touched the handle of the gun, the muscles at the corners of his face and mouth twitched, and a trace of haze flashed across his eyes for an instant... Also, an imperceptible hesitation!
"Mr. Gao Qi." I finally found a little gap in his performance, and I felt a lot more confident. Not only did my hand rest on the gun, but my fingers even tapped rhythmically on the table a few times. Then, I smiled playfully: "I'm curious, really curious... If, I mean if... If I choose this gun, what will be the result waiting for me?"
Gao Qi pursed his lips and looked at me. There was no joy or anger on his face.
I smiled to myself, and then said as if talking to myself: "Well, maybe I don't have to go out of this room, and I will be shot and killed by a few people with submachine guns? Then my blood will Dying the carpet here red? Or being painted on the walls? Or... you're going to send someone to tie me to this chair and beat me to death with a sledgehammer? Hmm... Or, take me with tweezers Pull out ten nails one by one, and then record my screams?"
My tone was very calm, as if I was whispering, and I spoke slowly.
Gao Qi looked at me, and then he smiled simply: "Chen, you can really joke... You know, this is not the 'Capone era', no one does it anymore - you are exaggerating !"
The "Capone" he mentioned is also a very famous mafia godfather in history, known for his cruelty and bloody violence, known as the Chicago terror king. And submachine guns beat people to death, blood is used as paint, tied people are beaten to death with a hammer, all nails are pulled out, and the screams of the other party are recorded... These are the most famous and widely circulated in the Capone era. means of terror. These have long given the Mafia its horrible and vicious notoriety.
I deliberately held a cigarette in one hand, continued to press the gun with the other hand, raised my eyelids to look at Gao Qi, and said softly in a very slow tone: "Then, what I'm curious about is, what method will you use to threaten me? Or... why do you think I'm a person who is afraid of threats?!"
Gao Qi also involuntarily changed his sitting position... He was nervous! My eyes lit up and I tried to keep my composure on my face.
"Chen!" He couldn't hide his gloomy face: "I know you are a proud young man. Oh, it's normal for young people to be a little proud. Besides, you did a good job. You see, I'm not I don’t know about you, but on the contrary, I spent a lot of time looking up your information. You are the leader of the Canadian circle, and you control the power of one of the underworld. At the same time, you have maintained friendship with Sorin, and, from now on, Come on, the Clover family is also closely related to you... Oh, by the way, I also admire your genius conception in your smuggling business."
In a few words, he shook all my bottom out. I'm not surprised by this. With his power, it's very easy to find out who I am.
But the meaning revealed in his words is very bad!
His subtext is actually: I know you are a person with a background, you are the leader of the big circle, a smuggling leader, you have Suo Lin and the Yang family as friends... But, I know all these, but I don't pay attention to them!
That's what it means!
"Interesting." I pulled the corner of my mouth slightly, and looked at Gao Qi not to be outdone: "Before I came here, I have always maintained enough respect for the great Gambino family! But such respect is not enough. It doesn't mean that I can tolerate other people's threats to me. Mr. Gao Qi, now, I just want to understand this, what methods will you use to deal with me? Well, those methods in Capone's era are outdated, so now! "
I decided to take a gamble in my heart!
I'm betting, betting that Gao Qi dares to be me here! !
I am not an ordinary person now, let alone a grassroots person! A grassroots commoner, if he is killed, he will be killed, and it is not troublesome to cover up! But who am I now? I'm a famous celebrity all over America! It is "Chen" in the minds of countless fans! ! I have been on the front page or cover of almost all first-class newspapers and magazines in the United States! ! I am the owner of a Hollywood film company and have maintained close relationships with many Hollywood celebrities! At the same time, I just invested in a movie with hundreds of millions of dollars! !
If a person like me suddenly disappears... Hmph, no matter who wants to touch me now, I'm afraid they should think twice!
"Means?" Gao Qi suddenly showed a somewhat complicated smile, a little weird: "Chen, all right. You are an outstanding young man, so I plan to give you a little more time to think... and how much time to think, It's up to you. As for the means... You see, this is my restaurant, so I won't make it bloody."
