Thinking back on what he had done in the past few months, Dio confirmed that he had not had any intersection with this "Daredevil". Instead, he and the Punisher had done a lot of things in Hell's Kitchen, which implicated Will.
This is the only way that the two can be connected, but that's all.
What's even more strange is that even Matt Murdock knows that someone is targeting him, so why didn't SHIELD know anything about it? Is it because he refused to join the Avengers last time, so he pretended not to know this time? SHIELD has no obligation to inform him of anything. Although the two sides are in a cooperative relationship, they are not on the same side after all, and they are wary of each other.
Dio did not leave here as soon as possible as Matt Murdock left on his business card. Before he figured out who was causing trouble, simply escaping would not solve the problem. Besides, he did not think there was any need for him to escape.
Even though the other party had found him, they still chose not to take action immediately. Either they did not have enough manpower or they did not want to make a big deal out of it.
Dior personally prefers the second possibility, or both possibilities. In broad daylight, in this busy Chinatown, it would be very difficult to attack him, and the impact would be very bad. What's more, the guests in his store are all influential celebrities, and they probably don't want to act rashly.
In other words, the best time to take action is when he leaves the restaurant and prepares to go home in the evening.
. . . . . . . . . .
At around 8 o'clock in the evening, Dior, who had just finished his business for the day, lit a cigarette and looked out at the quiet night.
In fact, he could have contacted Natasha to inquire about the situation, but as he said, SHIELD had no obligation to remind him unless he agreed to join the Avengers, but this was in line with his plan, and he didn't want to owe anyone a favor because of such a small matter, so he chose to stay alone. As for Will, he was taken to Stark Industries by Pepper Potts. 'It is said' that Stark Industries has an internal social event today.
Dio has saved Pepper more than once, so there is nothing wrong with asking her for such a small favor. Will is even more excited about the upcoming social event. Although he "hates" Tony Stark himself, he does not hate beautiful women. The female elites who can work in Stark Industries naturally don't have dinosaurs. In this regard, Will and Tony's preferences are surprisingly similar.
As for those people hiding around, Dio was not worried that they would attack Will again. Tony had already admitted his identity as Iron Man. If the other party's target was him, then he would definitely not risk offending Stark Industries. As a former arms dealer and current Iron Man, Tony was very difficult to deal with and would not even give face to Congress.
Now that he had no worries, Dio felt it was time to get rid of all these little mice.
As he walked out of the restaurant, two unfamiliar faces immediately walked towards him. Although they pretended to be just passing by, the newspapers they dared not put down and the sudden tense atmosphere exposed their intentions.
"You're still reading the newspaper so late at night. You're really studious." Dio chuckled, then took aim and flicked the cigarette butt in his hand at one of them as if it were a prank.
Then an amazing scene happened!
The limp cigarette butt disappeared from sight the instant it left his hand. Then, with a thud, one of the men who was walking quickly fell to the ground with blood oozing from a bloody hole on his forehead. As he fell to the ground with his eyes open, the pistol that he had covered with a newspaper fell several meters away.
The startled accomplice, upon realizing he had been exposed, immediately tore off his disguise and pointed his pistol at Dio. However, in the moment he was distracted, he discovered that he could no longer see the target in front of him.
Where are the people
Is it haunted
When he thought of the inexplicable death of his companion just now, he couldn't help but shiver.
"Are you looking for me?"
With a puff!
After hearing the sound, the man was so frightened that he wanted to turn around, but he found that the strength in his body was rapidly draining away. The last scene he saw before he died was a bloody arm piercing through his body from behind.
At this point, the cannon fodder duo died.
Dio retracted his arm and swung it lightly. The blood on it immediately fell to the ground. Ripple energy covered his body surface. Unless it exceeded the upper limit of his defense, anything would be isolated from the outside.
And just after he killed two cannon fodders in an instant like a ghost, the sound of gunfire still echoed in the night sky.
Sniper!
And there are two of them!
Dio immediately leaped forward and quickly shrank his body, perfectly avoiding two sure-hit sniper shots. This was the effect of the God Khnum, which allowed him to change his body shape at will within his ability.
"They even prepared snipers. That's interesting."
Dio, who was hiding in a blind spot, had already determined the opponent's position through the gunshot just now. He planned to kill the two rats hiding in the stinky ditch first.
However, at this moment, a large number of footsteps came from all directions, and a rough estimate was that there were at least dozens of gunmen surrounding them.
The person in charge of this operation originally thought that the first two attacks would be enough to take the target's life, but now it seems that it was a wise choice to send so many people for the sake of safety, otherwise the opponent would really have escaped.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that Dio, who was their target, had never thought of escaping from the beginning. On the contrary, in Dio's eyes, none of these little mice that escaped today would survive.
With the cover of night and the complex architectural terrain around him, Dio seemed to have completely disappeared.
"Where are the people? I clearly saw someone running over."
"You didn't see it wrong, did you?"
"Impossible, I really..."
Whoosh!
Dio, who was clinging to the high wall like a gecko, suddenly fell down silently. The last person to fall was cut in half by a hand knife wrapped in ripple force before he could finish his words.
The strong smell of blood spread all of a sudden, and the four people walking in front seemed to realize something was wrong, but just as they turned around, Dio had already stepped over the corpse, and between the rise of his hand and the fall of his knife, there was no sound!
When Dio climbed up the wall again and disappeared into the night, the bodies of the four of them fell powerlessly to the ground, and four heads rolled out. If you looked closely, you could see expressions of horror on their faces.
These people thought that this operation was just to deal with the owner of a small restaurant, and it should have been easy to capture him, but the successive failures made the night even more poignant.
In this game, who is the hunter and who is the prey? It seems that the answer has become completely different.
