Once the state machine is fully activated, its power will be unimaginable. Regardless of the normal media network, people dare to say anything, criticize anyone, and challenge anything, but once the violent machine is really running, everyone will be intimidated.
The serial murder cases that were being broadcast on TV just now were all taken down almost at the same time with an order from the superiors. As for the hot forum posts that were being speculated on the Internet, they were all deleted in less than two hours.
A hush order was jointly issued by NIA and the top police, and all detectives, police officers, and all witnesses who participated in this serial murder case signed a confidentiality agreement.
All case files, on-site evidence, etc. were sealed and packaged and handed over to Xie Lun's Serious Case Team Six. The so-called joint investigation team was cancelled. Sherron's team was the only team responsible for the case, and Sherron was the only person in charge.
Sherron even received calls from William and Hollis, both of whom asked him to solve the case as soon as possible so that no new victims could appear, at least no more police officers could be killed.
There was no way, when Xie Lun reported the real situation, the old guys at the top were scared.
A monster that can transform into anyone at will, and this monster is also a ruthless serial killer.
If such news were leaked, it would have a huge impact on interpersonal relationships and have a terrible social impact.
What if this guy turns into himself and goes out to kill people
Or come and kill yourself
So Director William immediately made the decision, ordered the seal to be sealed, and personally reported to the White House. The White House also responded immediately and asked the police to cooperate unconditionally with NIA on this case.
At this point, Dean's career as an "Internet celebrity" was completely over, and the pressure of solving the case fell entirely on Sherron's shoulders.
There were only a few days until Christmas, and although William didn't say it explicitly, he hinted that Sherron had better solve the case before Christmas.
This way everyone can have a peaceful Christmas.
With Xiaocao's help, all the evidence, information, etc. were now placed on the third underground floor of Parker's apartment.
Originally there was only a storage room on the first floor of Parker's apartment. With Sherron's investment, Ben transformed it into a fighting ring and gym. After Sherron obtained the ability of the Shroud, he secretly renovated the apartment.
Two floors of underground space were secretly expanded downwards. One floor was used to store weapons and ammunition and other shady things, while the other floor was used as a temporary warehouse to store information on all cases investigated by the Sixth Serious Case Team.
Now Sherron was sitting on a high chair, holding the dossier materials in his hands and looking at the evidence spread out on the floor below.
At this time, all his men had been dispersed, Parker became the Super Spider-Man, Tina took the group of ghouls, and Downey temporarily joined Luke's action team, all wandering around the streets of New York.
And Sam is doing fortune-telling upstairs, hoping to figure out Dean's whereabouts.
As for Sam, because of the seriousness of the case, with Sherron's guarantee, he put on electronic shackles and went to work with Sam as a magician.
"Why?" Xie Lun suddenly closed the file and murmured, "Why did he come to New York?"
Yes, this is something Sherron has never been able to figure out, and it is also the only possible breakthrough in this case.
That's the shapeshifter, why come to New York
The United States is so big, with so many states and so many big cities. If it wants to make an impact and discredit Dean, the place it should go to is Los Angeles.
Because Hollywood is just outside of Los Angeles.
So why did it choose to come to New York
Sherron thought there must be a reason for it to fly. And this reason is the key to seizing it and rescuing Dean.
While Xie Lun and others were struggling to find clues, in another direction of the city, Weig looked at Wick sitting in front of him and said calmly: "The answer to your retirement has been received from above. According to company regulations, you only need to Complete one more task and the company will allow you to retire early.”
Wick nodded: "I know the rules, tell me what the mission is."
"Now there are two most difficult tasks. You can choose one from them." Vig took out a photo and threw it in front of Wick. "The first one is to assassinate NIA agent Sherron."
The corners of Wick's eyes twitched slightly, and he said without hesitation: "I choose the second one."
Weig was startled and looked at Wick suspiciously: "Don't you think you can do anything to him?"
A wry smile appeared on the corner of Wick's mouth: "It's not that I can't do it, but it's simply impossible for me to complete this task. And I advise you, don't take any chances with this guy, he is not an ordinary person at all."
If you have watched the John Wick series, you must know that Wick is by no means a soft-hearted person. In the second part, in order to fulfill the "blood oath", he mercilessly shot his old lover to death.
If he had the ability, he would definitely shoot Sherron. But after experiencing the Midnight Train incident, Wick understood one thing.
This guy Xie Lun is a pervert. Even if he masters Mozambique's shooting skills, he can't even think of killing him.
It's a pity that Vig has not seen how scary Sherren is, and thinks that Wick is making excuses, so he can't help but sneer: "I didn't expect that there are people who are afraid of John Wick."
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I have no hope." Wick said calmly, "Compared to Sherren, I would rather attack a fully armed company head-on."
"Then you're right." Vig took out another thick stack of documents and placed them in front of Wick. "Everyone here will die."
Wick glanced at it and his pupils shrank slightly: "They"
Vig laughed: "Although the Tarasov gang is the largest Russian gang in New York, it is not the largest gang in New York. Do you understand the difference?"
Wick looked at Weig coldly: "The superiors agreed that you would do this."
Weig took out another document: "This is the final contract. It has the company's seal on it. See if it is true. As long as you are willing to accept this task, just sign it. After completing the task, you can enjoy retirement." Live, John Wick.”
Wick took the document and read it carefully for a while. After confirming that the contract was genuine, he picked up a pen and signed his name on the contract and put his fingerprint on it.
Vig smiled with satisfaction: "By the way, Mr. Wick, just a reminder. This task has a time limit, and it's best to complete it before Christmas."
Wick said nothing, just picked up the "death list", got up and left the bar.
Mr. Smith also received a retirement mission: "At 8 o'clock tonight, go to room 4125 of the Sheldon Hotel. After completing the transaction, kill the transaction partner and take away the transaction items."
For Smith, this retirement task seemed very simple, but he would not have imagined that his wife had also received a task, and the content of the task was exactly the same as his own.
Neither of them realized that this was a trap, and each found an excuse to leave home and go to the Sheldon Hotel.
And neither of them would have thought that the scene of them kissing goodbye at the door would fall into the eyes of someone who was interested.
After sneaking into New York City, the shape-shifter has been looking for its next target. After committing so many crimes before, its taste has become picky.
Ordinary women can no longer meet its discernment, and it is looking for something better, more beautiful, and more beautiful.
And Jane, who sent Smith out, was deeply attracted to him.
With that face, that figure, and that temperament, the shapeshifter made an instant decision that her next target would be her.
Before that, he needs to have physical contact with the target's husband. So it immediately drove to follow and also headed to the Sheldon Hotel.
