The real idiot should be Iosef from the Tarasov family.
As a second-generation person, Iosef not only lost his life for a car and a dog, but also buried a large number of his father Vigo's people with him. He is a real traitor.
And Santino... well, after all, he was fighting for the position of the head of the family, so he could be considered a half-hero.
If you succeed, you will be a true hero.
Therefore, the difficulty of Luke's plan this time lies in his acting skills.
How to make the other side think that they can kill John the Night Demon with a little more effort, and unremittingly send out a large number of experience points, no, a large number of gangster killers, all depends on Luke's acting skills.
Fortunately, his acting skills have improved rapidly over the past year or so. He can't be called a best actor, but at least he is considered a veteran.
It is not a big problem to perform in a state where the situation is critical and will be over in a few more hits.
However, professional blood bags and makeup props are essential so that you can pretend to be injured when necessary.
Of course, he couldn't be really injured, and he wouldn't leave any drop of his own blood because it might be taken away for testing.
John's blood, fingerprints, and irises are all on file in mainland hotels. Once compared, Night Demon, this top-notch vest, will be ruined.
Again, be fully prepared and safety first.
In the evening, Luke checked his equipment in the room, then slowly put on his black shirt, carefully tied his black tie, and fastened it with a tie clip.
Two Glock pistols were also inserted into underarm holsters.
The advantage of this gun is that it is fast and stable, has sufficient bullet capacity, and is more practical than other pistols for shooting ordinary unprotected bandits.
He picked up the suit on the bed and put it on. He adjusted it in front of the dressing mirror and looked left and right.
The man in the mirror had his loose semi-long hair combed back with hairspray, and he was wearing a brand new, straight black suit and shiny leather shoes.
Luke nodded with satisfaction: Just looking at his demeanor, you can tell he's a serious person.
He grabbed the large flat bag on the table, slung it over his shoulder, and pushed the door open to walk out.
As he drove away in the hotel car, a short-haired woman looked at the taillights of the car, took out her cell phone, and sent a text message: The Night Demon has arrived at the destination.
Santino, who was far away in the United States, opened the text message and read it. He put away his phone, stared at the sculpture in front of him silently, and took a deep breath: "Night Devil, don't let me down."
The car drove for more than forty minutes at night and stopped at a road at the foot of a mountain.
Luke got out of the car carrying his big bag and walked quickly up the mountain, soon disappearing into the darkness of the hillside.
The Dantonio family estate is located on a gently sloping hill.
Its main body is an ancient castle built on the hillside. Later, it was renovated and expanded and became the ancestral home of the Dantonio family.
According to tradition, the "succession ceremony" of each new head of the Dantonio family must be held in this ancestral land with special significance.
As a historical monument, the part of the Dantonio estate that belonged to the ancient castle still exists.
Especially underground, the Dantonio family not only did not cause any damage, but also invested considerable funds in protective repairs.
After all, this is an ancient monument. It represents the long history of the Dantonio family and the ancient dignity of this family. At least that is what the Dantonio family themselves thinks.
This ancestral land cannot be allowed to collapse due to aging, and the shadows of the ancient buildings cannot be changed. The more ancient parts are destroyed, the more it will decline, and the history of the Dantonio family will become a joke.
And although there are not many historical structural diagrams of this ancient castle, there are some in mainland hotels.
Luke advanced along the route planned out on the structural map, and soon climbed up from the roadless part of the hillside. Halfway through, he cut into the gaps between buildings and wandered around until he entered through a small door in a remote place, and arrived at the basement of the castle.
This was a safe place where the castle owner lived during ancient wars.
They can wait here for their knights to fight the enemy, and then slowly decide whether to fight to the death or turn around and escape through the underground passage.
There are also fixed guards and patrolling guards nearby, but John Wick's basic stealth is really useful.
Luke tried his hand at it and slipped through the shadows.
Even though the fixed guard was only five meters away from him, he still didn't notice that someone was sneaking around him.
I have to say that the ability of primary concealment is indeed very powerful.
Even though it is not powerful alone, for beings like John the Night Stalker and Luke who have powerful killing power, it is a top-level auxiliary ability and a must-have for lurking, killing and robbing.
After entering the basement, his movements became more leisurely and comfortable.
There is only a small amount of necessary lighting here, and darkness and shadows are everywhere, which is the most suitable place for basic stealth.
Luke moved forward easily while checking the monitoring location projected on the polarizing mirror and finding terrain suitable for combat.
If it were John himself, the surveillance would still cause some trouble.
But for Luke, it was easy to interfere with the surveillance and make the image freeze for half a second.
Even if there was someone sitting in front of the surveillance camera, they would not be able to see him passing by.
In this way, he walked into the main building at a leisurely pace.
Today is the day before the succession ceremony, and a lively cocktail party is taking place in the lawn garden outside the manor.
There were singers performing, bands playing, and people chatting everywhere, all of them came to celebrate the upcoming birth of the Camorra Queen.
The future Queen Jaina had just sent away the head of another family and was preparing to go back to her room to take a shower and rest for an hour before going out to entertain more guests.
Unlike the magnificent modern living room, the bathroom is a high-vaulted, dimly lit, old-fashioned room.
It covers an area of over 100 square meters, and most of the furnishings are very old. The bathing facilities are an antique boulder bathtub that has existed for hundreds of years.
The reason why this room is so large is to leave space for the huge bath with three stone steps around it.
Standing in front of the mirror, Jaina looked at herself with a tired expression and smiled self-deprecatingly: "If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. What a happy trouble!"
As she spoke, she took off her snow-white high-collar fur coat, revealing a fishtail dress with silver sequins.
At the age of twenty-six, she is no longer a little girl, but with enough money and careful maintenance, she looks almost like a woman in her early twenties. The unique pride of women remains intact.
But she wiped the corners of her eyes and shook her head regretfully: "I'm afraid I'll have a few more crow's feet this time."
Although the positions of the head of the family and the twelve masterminds were settled after the succession ceremony, she still had more things to deal with.
For example, the twelve masterminds who want to take advantage of the opportunity to reap profits from Camorra must be eliminated, and that troublesome younger brother Santino also needs to be dealt with.
It would conservatively take two or three months to get everything sorted out.
