Chapter 174: Overdoing Things (Two in One)

In the interrogation room.

Red Hood was sitting on a stool, one hand handcuffed, and the other holding a delicious crab burger, stuffing it into his mouth desperately.

Occasionally, when he was in a hurry to eat, he would grab the Coke on the side and drink it in big gulps.

He ate so fast, like a starving man who hadn't eaten for three days.

And this is indeed the case.

During the three-day interrogation, he hardly ate or drank anything. Whenever he felt physically uncomfortable and could no longer bear it, professional medical staff would come into the room and inject him with nutrients to maintain his most basic physiological functions.

“How’s the burger?”

Just at this moment, a tall figure walked into the interrogation room, looked at the Red Hood who was eating happily, and casually greeted him.

With his mouth full of food, Red Hood could only hum.

But looking at his expression, you can tell that the delicious crab burger really makes him very satisfied.

Also.

This is a delicious crab burger.

No one in this world has ever been able to resist the taste of a delicious Krabby Patty.

Red Hood is no exception.

"Well, Parker Robbins, you wanted to see me, and now that I'm here, it's time for you to tell me the secret of the cloak."

Three days is not a lot of time.

Enough for Tommy to find out the true information about Red Hood.

The lighting in the interrogation room was pale, making Tommy's outline look particularly grim.

Tommy pulled up a chair and slowly sat down opposite the Red Hood, Parker Robbins, staring at him intently with a gaze as sharp as a torch, as if to penetrate his soul.

Parker Robbins swallowed the last bite of his burger with difficulty, wiped his mouth with his cuffed hands, and burped loudly.

He raised his head with a sly smile on his face, "Don't worry, I will tell you, but before we officially start, I want to get a promise from you."

Red Hood certainly said.

The key is that he really can't bear it anymore.

As long as he could help it, he would not tell anyone about the cloak.

That was the source of his strength. Without his cape and boots, he became the ordinary man he used to be, the street thug he once again was.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

For someone who has tasted the wonderful taste of power, mediocrity is undoubtedly the greatest torture.

However, Red Hood knew very well that Tommy's patience had its limits.

If he dares to resist again, death will surely await him.

Of course, he couldn't say it so simply.

One thing is obvious: the moment he revealed the secret was the moment he was about to die.

That's why he asked for a meeting.

"As long as you promise to let me go afterward, I will tell you everything, not hiding a single word, including how I got the cloak that day.

Also, I hope to get a small sum of money so that I can take care of my sick mother and my pregnant girlfriend."

After saying that, he looked at Tommy in front of him nervously.

He didn't know whether Tommy would agree to his request, because even if Tommy refused, he had to say it.

In order to increase the success rate of the negotiations, he did not hesitate to expose his biggest weakness and show his concern for his family.

Although, Tommy already knew it.

Fortunately, Tommy did not let him down and looked at Parker with slightly narrowed eyes.

After a moment, he nodded slowly.

"Okay, I promise. As long as you tell the truth, I promise to let you go afterwards."

People are different.

Before Red Hood got the cloak, he was just an ordinary gangster. He had been on the street for many years but had never made a name for himself and had always been limited to petty theft.

A small character like this, even if he were lucky enough to obtain powerful superpowers, would not be able to accomplish anything.

Just like those nouveau riche who become rich overnight, they won’t be able to enjoy themselves for long before being reduced to their original state, or even become more miserable than before.

The same is true for Red Hood.

But Jin Bing is different.

Jin Bing is calm, intelligent, and has ambitions and strategies far beyond those of ordinary people.

Such people don't need any superpowers to make a name for themselves.

This is also the biggest reason why Tommy didn't make a deal with Kingpin.

He wouldn't believe a word about retiring from the underworld.

Men's words are lies.

An ambitious person like Jin Bing, even if he can return to civilian life for the sake of his loved ones, will never remain ordinary for too long. Sooner or later, he will return to society and make a comeback.

Tommy didn't want to leave any hidden dangers.

It is better to resolve the threat once and for all rather than have to deal with it over several months.

What's more, he has the ability to do it, so why not do it?

Of course, considering Kingpin's cunning nature, he thought about the possibility that Kingpin on that day might be a substitute.

But the system saved him from this trouble.

[Congratulations to the host for killing the super criminal Kingpin and gaining 300 points. ]

[Current points: 800]

I have to say, this system is pretty good.

With the existence of the kill prompt, he could confirm the information of Jin Bing's death.

Unfortunately, Red Hood and Bullseye stole his head, so he was unable to gain points from the Crime Circus.

If that bunch of clowns were added, he might not be able to hold the lottery again.

But now, we can only suffer those vampires in Europe.

Not long ago, Amelia and Selina, following his orders, launched a large-scale killing of vampires across Europe, starting from Hungary.

Countless vampires lost their lives, but inevitably some escaped.

If you sift it carefully again, I believe it will still provide a lot of points.

Of course, that’s something to do later.

Now, let's hear what Red Hood has to say.

After getting Tommy's promise, Red Hood finally spoke.

"You want to know my secret? Well, I'll tell you now. It may be hard for you to believe, but I'm sure that cloak is related to a powerful god, because..."

Somehow, Red Hood couldn't continue his words halfway through. The expression on his face became dull and his eyes became extremely confused.

At the same time, a voice suddenly came from the dark and deep universe.

"Shut up, you piece of shit. I'm going to take your power back."

The Red Hood stared at the wall, but his gaze came into the endless void. Through many obstacles, he saw the mysterious man who made the sound.

Oh my god, what a terrifying existence!

Red Hood was terrified and looked extremely painful, his eyes were so round that they seemed about to pop out of their sockets.

"What is this? Tell me, Parker Robbins, what do you see?"

Tommy noticed something was wrong, stood up abruptly, put his hands on the table, and approached Red Hood to ask loudly.

However, Red Hood seemed to be frozen in place and did not respond to his calls.

At this moment, the Red Hood had lost his sense of the outside world. In his spiritual world, a huge black shadow appeared out of thin air.

What followed was a whispering sound that became clearer and clearer.

"I will take back your power and your life."

"God of Darkness!"

These were the last words Red Hood left to the world.

In just a few seconds, he turned from a human into a mummy, and then into a pool of ashes, as if he was burned by an intense flame, but there was no flame around, not even a lighter.

Red Hood dies.

Tommy's face was extremely solemn after witnessing everything that happened.

"What's going on? This is simply impossible. This is obviously caused by the interference of some powerful being..."

A current flashed through his mind, and he suddenly thought of Red Hood's scream before he died.

"God of Darkness, could it be that..."

Yes.

The name that appeared in Tommy's mind at this moment was the ruler of the dark dimension, the supreme existence in the world of dark magic, and the powerful dimensional demon Dormammu.

Possessing the mysterious energy of the entire dark dimension, Dormammu's strength can only be described as terrifying.

His abilities are varied and include, but are not limited to, matter transmutation, inter-dimensional teleportation, elemental control, telepathy, and even the ability to create life.

To some extent, in his own dark dimension, Dormammu is the supreme god, a God-like existence.

Although Dormammu's strength will be weakened after leaving the dark dimension, he is not someone Tommy can provoke easily.

At least not now!

Tommy felt sick at the thought that he might have to fight against the dimensional demon.

That's a guy that even the Supreme Sorcerer Ancient One is afraid of. How could he be qualified to deal with him?

"This is really..."

At this moment, Tommy was completely speechless.

How could he have imagined that a mere gangster named Red Hood could be involved with a dimensional demon.

Just at this moment, the cell phone in my pocket suddenly rang.

Tommy knew who was calling before he even saw the number.

After he answered the phone, he put it to his ear and found that it was indeed the case.

“Boss, I have something important to report. Just now, an accident happened in the laboratory. The cloak and boots you gave us suddenly caught fire without any fire.

Even though we activated the firefighting equipment immediately, we still couldn’t stop the fire, and the two pieces of clothing were completely burned and disappeared in the raging fire. ”

Dr. Connors said this, his tone full of regret and sorrow.

Tommy also felt it was a pity.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

Since the being suspected to be Dormammu has taken away the power and life of the Red Hood, he naturally will not reveal the cloak.

The most hateful thing was that the opponent took his head and killed the Red Hood in front of him, without leaving him even the last bit of points.

It's all in vain, that's what Tommy is like now.

"Okay, I know everything. Don't worry about this matter anymore. Just continue with the research on compound No. 5. I hope to get results by the end of this year. Do you have confidence, Dr. Connors?"

"Well, it's a little difficult, but not too difficult. As long as the experimental funds can keep up, there shouldn't be any big problems."

On the other end of the phone, Dr. Connors pondered for a while and then gave a definite answer.

Tommy: "Experimental funding? No problem, 50 million US dollars, is it enough?"

"It's enough, more than enough!"

Although separated by the phone, Tommy seemed to have seen Dr. Connors nodding and bowing.

Endless experimental resources are what every scientist dreams of.

Now, Dr. Connors enjoys such treatment and will certainly feel satisfied with it.

……

A few days later.

Jin Bing's funeral.

The weather is very bad today. The sky is overcast and it seems like a light rain may fall at any time.

However, there were quite a few guests present.

Regardless of Jin Bing's true identity, his status in society is not false.

Even if it's just for courtesy reasons, many people will give face and show up at the scene.

But how many of them are sincere? It is hard to say.

Moreover, a considerable number of uninvited guests also arrived at the scene.

These guys were dressed in black suits and looked particularly fierce. They didn't look like good people.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Most of them were sent by major gangs to confirm whether Jin Bing was dead or not.

There was no way. Jin Bing was a very unreliable person. Only by watching his body being buried in person could everyone feel at ease.

In addition to paying attention to Jin Bing's coffin, they also set their sights on an important figure.

Vanessa was wearing a full black mourning dress and a black fishnet veil on her head. Her eyes were slightly red and swollen, and it was obvious that she had just cried.

Although she looked a little tired, she looked very dignified and observed all kinds of etiquette very well, which made it impossible to find fault with her.

Of course, people pay attention to Vanessa not because of any improper thoughts, but because of another special reason.

As Kingpin's widow and his only relative, Vanessa has absolute inheritance rights and obtains all the property under Kingpin's name.

That was a huge fortune, enough to make the entire underworld jealous.

At the funeral, many people looked at Vanessa with greed in their eyes.

These guys with ulterior motives began to secretly plan in their hearts how to get a piece of Vanessa's pie, or simply take her property for themselves.

Being stared at by so many eager eyes, Vanessa felt a little uneasy.

She is just an ordinary woman, without any powerful superpowers or the cunningness of Kingpin.

We are able to survive until today thanks to the help of James Wesley.

After Jin Bing's death, many of his subordinates raised the banner of rebellion, began to declare themselves kings, and fought each other.

Only James, Kingpin's former top military advisor, remained loyal and continued to serve Kingpin's wife, Vanessa herself.

It can be said that if it were not for his diligent work, Vanessa would have been torn to pieces by many ambitious people long ago and would not have survived to this day.

Vanessa expressed her heartfelt gratitude to James for his loyalty.

Little did people know that what James did was more due to his guilt and insecurity.

He has always been worried about Vanessa's existence, believing that as long as this woman is alive, Kingpin's business will be affected.

Over time, he came up with a bold idea.

Especially after Jin Bing announced his retirement, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and turned his idea into reality.

Yes.

It was he who secretly colluded with Silvio and revealed Vanessa's location that day.

He thought that Vanessa's death would stir up Kingpin's hatred and bring him back to the top.

But the subsequent development of events gradually got out of his control.

In the end, Jin Bing's death was something he never expected.
