Chapter 40 The party begins, a secret third party
In the early morning of the next day, Anton arrived in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles is the location of Hollywood, where celebrities are gathered here, and journalists are far more crazy than their New York counterparts.
A group of people held the cameras and squatted at the airport exit without any concealment, waiting for Anton to come out.
With their connections, as long as Anton boards the plane, they will know Anton’s next destination.
Even private jets are no exception, and there will always be people bribed by them.
Nowadays, not only ordinary exports, but also VIP exports are guarded, and Anton doesn’t know how these reporters came in.
Each outlet has eyeliner.
Los Angeles journalists can be said to be the king of intelligence in Los Angeles.
Regardless of the ground, from various gossips to international events, reporters can be seen everywhere.
"Go back and fire everyone on the plane and replace it with a new batch."
Anton looked ugly. After standing still, he looked around and saw a bunch of reporters at the door who looked "invisible" and felt a headache.
He knew that it must be an employee on the private plane who leaked his information.
"clear."
Betty nodded: "Do you need me to call the airport security guard?"
"Call it over."
Anton sighed. He really couldn't do anything to these reporters, and he also lacked the experience of dealing with reporters.
As the boss behind the Knight Daily, he knows better than anyone else that if you answer something here, you may become the headlines of the newspaper the next day.
Don't doubt that he is so famous now.
A few minutes later.
Surrounded by a group of security guards, Anton got in the car and left without leaving any room for the reporters.
In the process, a group of journalists who were rushing forward frantically put the camera on Anton's face, as if there was no need to ask anything.
The group chased Anton's car and came to the mansion near Los Angeles.
"What did he come here to do?"
Some reporters were surprised.
“Party.”
Another person replied: "Jim took the celebration party to eight o'clock tonight, and Anton came to Los Angeles to attend the party."
"What?"
The man was surprised: "Shouldn't the party be tomorrow?"
"You don't know this one day in advance? You'd better quit your job and go home to breastfeed your child. This job is not suitable for you."
His colleagues looked at him with contempt, as if he was looking at a waste.
Time soon came from the early morning to the evening.
Get enough rest and energetic Anton drove to the party venue.
The co-pilot's female companion is his personal assistant Betty.
Seeing this, the reporter followed again.
at the same time.
New York.
Under Sloan's command, the fraternity members appeared near the Empire State Building.
There are Firefox Fox, repairman, gunmaker, Mr. X, pesticide, butcher, etc.
Almost all internal personnel were dispatched just to deal with Carlos.
They are the world's top killers.
The reason why all the staff were dispatched was because they knew how difficult Carlos was to deal with.
Carlos, who was once a companion, was a mythical figure in the Brotherhood who had never failed and was admired by countless peers.
The terrifying gunfighting technique made the members of the fraternity extremely frightened.
Even the killers under Gao Table believed that Carlos was one of the hardest people in this world to kill.
The ranking is still above Sloan.
To be honest, although John Wick is known as the King of New York's Killers, if you really want to compare, he will definitely not be able to deal with Carlos, at most comparable to Firefox and others.
After all, if John Wick could kill Carlos, High Table wouldn't be so afraid of the brotherhood.
But what these fraternity members didn't know was that their actions were watched by a pair of red eyes from beginning to end.
Whoosh!
In the dark night, while the extremely tall figure was hiding, there were two pointed and long ears on their heads, which looked like anthropomorphic rabbit.
...
Los Angeles, party time.
One big shot after another arrived at the party venue to participate in this celebration because the global box office of "The Mystery of the Shadow" exceeded 600 million.
The reporters pressed the shutter repeatedly.
The flash adds a bit of a scent of a lantern riddle to the party.
Of course, the reporters were all stopped outside the door, and at most they were photographed through the door, looking through it.
A very small number of female reporters took the arms of the "big man" and walked into the party venue arrogantly, attracting the envious and jealous eyes of countless male reporters.
As one of the protagonists of this party, Anton stood at the door and greeted these big names.
Some are familiar, or some are not familiar.
At this moment, everyone is like old friends who have not seen each other for many years.
Next to Anton is Jim Lambert, who returned to the ranks of first-line producers with "The Mystery of the Shadow".
Jim was so energetic that he swept away the decadence of the past few years.
"Batman Part 2, when are you going to shoot?"
Seeing that the guests were almost here, Jim finally took a break and talked about business with Anton who had not seen him for many days.
“Already in planning.”
Anton replied: "Besides Batman, I have some other plans at the moment, ready to advance simultaneously. Jim, how are you thinking about what I asked Betty to ask you?"
"You mean joining your newly established DC company?"
Jim hesitated: "This matter is about my career planning later, you have to give me more time to consider."
"No problem, but I don't have much patience."
Anton said lightly: "You know, you are not the only producer in Hollywood. Everyone is very attentive."
Jim's face changed slightly and he said seriously: "I know, I will give you an answer as soon as possible."
"Okay, let's go in."
Anton changed his tone: "There are all people who should arrive, and it's time to carry out the next activity."
After saying that, he walked towards the crowd.
Jim pondered in place for a while, looked at Anton in the crowd, smiled slightly bitterly before he followed.
Another ten minutes passed.
Anton's eyes flashed.
At this time, if someone observes his pupils, he can find that he seems to have seen another picture.
This picture does not belong to this party, but a deep darkness.
...
New York, Empire State Building.
Carlos disguised himself as a cleaner and shuttled through the corridors.
In this decisive battle, it would be better to say that the Brotherhood discovered his traces, which was better to deliberately expose his position. The purpose was to deal with the top killers of the Brotherhood with complete preparations.
Years of pursuit made him tired of such a life.
He is ready to solve the masters of the Brotherhood at one time.
Either die by yourself or your opponent dies.
Click!
Suddenly, all the lights inside the Empire State Building went out and the switch was cut off.
However, at this night, power outages were very common and did not attract the attention of others. Only Carlos raised his eyebrows.
It seems that the gang of people from the Brotherhood have entered the Empire State Building.
As for the fraternity people, they were moved when they saw all the lights that were extinguished above their heads, thinking that this was Carlos's work.
Neither side knew that in this decisive battle, a third party appeared.
Chapter completed!
