The man in front of me had a crew cut, a trapezoidal face, a cold expression, and his eyes seemed to flash with cold light, which made people feel nervous.
Everything is the same as Lei remembered.
Lei exhaled: "How have you been these past two years?"
Frank stepped in and slowly walked into the living room: "Not good."
Lei seemed surprised: "What's wrong?"
Frank: "Maria is dead, Lisa and little Frank are dead, too, right in front of me."
Lei tightened his grip on the gun behind his back, and his face became even more shocked: "What's going on? Come, sit down and talk slowly."
Frank: "No, I just want to ask you a question. Do you know the "Blacksmith"?"
Lei frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I haven't heard of him. What does he do and where is he active? Only then can I find out."
Frank was silent.
Lei looked at him, the gun on his back moving slowly: "Frank, what's the problem? Tell me, I'll do my best to help you, for the sake of old comrades... Okay?"
Hiss! A low gas jet sounded.
Lei raised his left hand in shock and covered his neck, and at the same time he couldn't help turning back.
After turning halfway, his eyes rolled up and he fell limply on the sofa.
Luke, still wearing a gray-black hoodie, appeared behind him and slowly took back the syringe: "Let's save some time. He has a gun behind his back the whole time. This doesn't look like meeting an old comrade."
Frank: "... I also shot you when you first showed up. People like us don't trust anyone, and holding a gun doesn't mean anything."
The corners of Luke's mouth curled up inside his mask: If you don't trust me, would you follow me? If you trust him, would you agree to my proposal
It seems that the tsundere trait is not unique to a certain young master, it’s just that the way this “Punisher Uncle” expresses himself is slightly different from that of the young master.
Someone complained in his heart, and said: "His wife and children are asleep, let's get started."
As he said this, he took out two syringes again and injected each syringe into the sides of Lei's neck: "He will wake up in three minutes, you can ask anything you want. Well, if he is a blacksmith, remember to ask him where the goods are hidden." After that, he went out.
Frank pretended not to hear anything. He just walked up to Lei, searched his body, turned off the safety of the pistol and threw it aside.
Then he sat next to Lei and waited quietly.
There was dead silence in the room. Two minutes later, Lei's eyelids trembled and he slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was dull and unfocused, falling on the air in front of him.
Frank's breathing became heavier and faster. All sorts of thoughts ran through his mind, and he finally asked the question in his mind: "Did you kill Maria and the others?"
…
Here, Luke walked outside the house and headed straight to a small wooden house more than ten meters away.
After putting Lei's wife and son to sleep, he had already roughly checked the house and found nothing obviously unusual. However, there was a smell of gun oil and other things coming from the storage room more than ten meters away from the main house.
After opening the door, he ignored the various tools inside and walked straight to a wall. He reached behind a heavy cutting machine and fumbled for a moment, then pressed a hidden button with his finger.
With a slight noise, an iron staircase slowly opened up on the ground, and it turned out to be a basement.
As he stepped down, the lights in the room automatically lit up. He looked around and found himself in a sea of weapons.
There are no less than fifty pistols, rifles, and shotguns of various types, as well as several types of machine guns, ranging from the lightweight M249 squad machine gun to the heavy six-barrel M134. There are also grenade launchers, RPGs, grenades, smoke bombs, stun bombs, and other individual battlefield equipment. The number is enough to equip two standard infantry squads.
Luke just glanced at these things and soon his eyes fell on a laptop.
He inserted a USB-disk-shaped cracking device into it, started up the laptop, and took out the counterfeit mobile phone to operate it.
A few minutes later, his eyes lit up, and he looked at the several folders opened on the fake phone and laughed: "Found it."
He turned off his laptop and put it into the storage space, then looked around.
With a thought, he put consumable items such as the grenade launcher, RPG, iron pineapple, smoke bombs, and stun bombs into the storage space.
The rest of the guns, bullets and equipment were not moved. He had plenty of these in stock and it was not difficult to get them, so there was no need to take them away.
After doing all this, he walked out and restored the basement to its original state.
When he returned to the living room of the main house, he saw Frank standing silently in front of the sofa.
On the sofa, Lei was lying straight with a hole on his forehead.
Luke held his forehead with his hand: "You are really quick, you killed him right away!" Fortunately, I found the information there, otherwise I would not be able to find the batch of goods from the blacksmith.
He didn't bother Frank either. After his revenge, he had to let him have some peace and quiet.
He just leaned against the table and took out the fake phone to check the interrogation video of Frank just now.
Fortunately, he always made preparations for both situations and retained as much information as possible.
The Lei who died on the sofa was named Lei Skunov.
He was a colonel in the Marine Corps and Frank and Robert's superior before they retired.
At the same time, Lei has another identity as an expert in performing secret missions and dirty work for several organizations around the world.
Once a team member dies in a secret mission, they become mercenaries and have nothing to do with the US military.
Therefore, Lei has many privileges in the US military. For example, most of the records of his and his team's movements and transportation are in the hands of a few people.
Many of the things they bring out of or into the United States are quite sensitive and basically leave no records in the military.
With such a convenient channel, and as Lei was exposed to those shady and dirty jobs for a long time, the bottom line in his heart quickly disappeared.
Seeing those above him making fortunes from his killings, Lei started his own tertiary industry, smuggling and selling banned drugs, and had several nicknames, "Blacksmith" being one of them.
As for his business, the bigwigs who command him have a general idea of it even if they don't have solid evidence.
However, no one said anything.
A black-hearted subordinate who likes to make money is more useful than a loyal and patriotic soldier.
If there is a problem with Lei one day, just clean it up and take away the money he earned.
However, Lei was quite capable and skillful. Over the past ten years, not only did he survive, but he also climbed from the position of major to colonel, and his business also grew bigger and bigger.
After recruiting several big shots to protect him, the possibility of him being silenced became very small, and his life became more comfortable.
It wasn't until two years ago when Frank was about to retire that Lei, who had been going smoothly, felt the trouble.
Frank has a strong aversion to the trafficking of illegal drugs and never holds back when it comes to killing dealers.
Ray didn't let Frank get involved in his personal business.
But after Frank retires, Ray will no longer be able to control his external communications, and there may be people who want to get information from Frank to bring him down.
Frank doesn't know about "private business" and is likely to leak sensitive information.
How dare Lei, whose background is so rotten, allow others to investigate him
When the time comes, pull out the radish and bring out the mud.
The higher-ups may very well turn the fake into reality and execute him on the charge of smuggling and selling banned drugs.
Many people will just raise their glasses to celebrate, knowing that there is one less person who knows about their troubles.
