A retired reincarnator from a certain American film studio

However, this stable period only lasted for about seven days before it came to an end.

this day.

Lu Ke had just sat down in his office when a call from an unknown number came in on his cell phone.

He glanced at it.

Then hang up.

If nothing unexpected happens, this call is definitely from Whitehouse.

Since the third day after Red Devil's death, Whitehorn has been harassing him with random phone calls.

the reason.

They felt the fear of death.

but……

He couldn't be bothered to answer a call from someone who had only a few days left to live, or more accurately, only seven days left to live before dying.

Although Luke said he wasn't in a hurry, he wouldn't mind sending Whitehouse away earlier if he could.

This explains why Red Devil often avoids the main entrance; all we remember are images of him traversing the borders of hell and the interior of the building where Whitehorse is located, but no information to identify where Whitehorse's lair is.

If Red Devil had any such information in his memories, Luke would transmit it now and send that old dog on his way as soon as possible.

Whitehouse dialed again, and Luke hung up again.

When Whitehouse called for the third time, Luke simply hung up and turned off his phone to focus on processing the federal documents he had on hand.

Although it is less than a week before he officially takes office as the Los Angeles Police Department Chief in February, Luke has already gradually taken over all the functions and powers of the chief.

After all, Pan Ning had been promoted, and he had no reason to oppose Lu Ke's intentions, so the transfer of power was very smooth.

Just after Lu Ke finished dealing with the documents at hand, the landline on the desk rang.

Lu Ke reached for the phone.

"Hey!"

"Director."

Earl's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ms. Maria Sylph wants to speak with you."

Lady Viper?

Lu Ke raised an eyebrow and hummed in agreement.

soon.

Earl transferred the call to Mrs. Viper.

"Good day, Director Dan."

"Good day."

Luke greeted them, and after a while, he hung up the phone, opened a drawer, and took out the Hydra meeting glasses.

Put it on.

activation.

moment.

His gaze once again fell upon the Hydra's private conference room.

Lady Viper has already taken her seat.

Also seated was the old dog Daniel Whitehorn.

Whitehead sat across from him with a gloomy expression, his eyes, which seemed to have not slept well, fixed intently on Luke.

Luke crossed his arms, not even glancing at the old dog, but instead smiled at Madam Viper: "Maria, we can begin."

Lady Viper then went straight to the point about why she had called the two of them to a meeting.

"According to the rules, your game will officially begin in seven days."

"Tomorrow, your chips and the custodian will be taken over by my people, and I will transfer them to the winner when the winner is determined."

"Is there a problem?"

Lady Viper smiled at Whitehorn and Luke, then spread her hands and asked, "You two?"

Luke shook his head: "No."

Whitehouse said in a muffled voice, "No."

Seeing this, Lady Viper nodded and said, "As is the rule, you two will have one last chance to resolve this conflict through peaceful dialogue led by me before the game officially begins. Do you have any thoughts?"

Luke shook his head again: "No!"

He just wants Whitehouse dead.

Lady Viper nodded upon hearing Luke's answer, then looked at Whitehorse.

"Chairman Whitehead, and you?"

"..."

Whitehead, who had been sitting in his seat and rarely spoke, took a deep breath, raised his hands from below and placed them on the table, staring intently at Luke across from him: "I can give you two-thirds of my assets, and Anna, in exchange for a truce between us."

Chapter 287 Whitehorse at His End (First Update!)

If possible.

Daniel Whitehead would never be willing to utter words that sound like surrender.

but……

Death is not scary!

What's terrifying is watching death come to you helplessly.

Whitehouse is no exception.

He actually has one last trump card up his sleeve.

The Demon of the Witch's Heart.

In hell, there is the so-called Witchheart Demon, who is said to be second only to one demon and above all other demons.

Whitehorn believed that as long as the Witchheart was willing to help him, then none of the problems would be problems.

He was also certain that the Demonic Heart of Witch was willing to help him.

After all, he had a cooperative relationship with Wu Xinmo.

This is why, even after learning of Red Devil's death, he was able to regain his composure after a brief moment of panic.

There's just one problem!

Although he was involved in the cooperation between the world and Earth with Wu Xinmo, he had no way to contact Wu Xinmo.

The Red Devil has always been in charge of transporting the black gemstones.

During the two years of cooperation, Wu Xinmo only came up three times, and all three times, Wu Xinmo came up on his own.

Previously, if he wanted to find the Witchheart Demon, he might have been able to leave a message at the edge of hell through the Red Devil, but now the Red Devil is dead.

He discovered that he had no way to contact the Witchheart, and he couldn't find another mutant who could bring him a message from the edge of hell.

moment.

Whitehouse panicked again.

Moreover, as the time for Lu Ke to come knocking on his door drew closer, his fear grew exponentially.

This is why he has been calling Luke more and more frequently these past few days.

But Luke wouldn't answer his calls at all.

and so……

As expected, Whitehouse, who was essentially having his last chance to speak with Luke today, offered the maximum compensation he could.

Two-thirds of his assets, plus his daughter.

Here you go!

This is a plea for mercy, a concession of territory and reparations.

Especially since this was a white man begging for mercy from a yellow man.

This made Whitehead very uncomfortable.

but……

This is not a plea for mercy; it's merely a tactical retreat.

Whitehead comforted himself with this thought.

He didn't lose. As long as he's alive, he hasn't lost. But if he dies, then he's completely lost.

His dream of immortality, and even his dream of conquest, will all turn to dust.

I just need to stall.

I just need to stall until the Demon of the Heart responds to him!

At that time...

I will return like lightning!

At that time, he could take back everything he had ceded territory and paid reparations to Luke—his assets, even his daughter—and would also give Luke's life as interest.

Whitehead did it anyway, even though doing so might leave the other board members with the impression that he was nothing special.

Because only by living can one have a chance. When the time comes, if anyone disobeys him, he will kill them all.

Moreover, this time, the betrayal by so many people has made Whitehead no longer trust these people.

Hydra must have only one leader and one voice from now on!
