Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life.

Chapter 44 Obadiah's Layered Tactics

Watching the so-called Arbitrator flee in a sorry state, Sherlock did not stop him. After all, having seen the movie, Sherlock knew that this so-called Arbitrator, though seemingly high and mighty, was actually nothing more than a puppet kept by the High Table.

Sherlock didn't need to say so much to a puppet; repairing the woman's face was just a warning to the High Table not to have any improper thoughts about him.

This is especially true for the people around him. Whether it's Zhao Weike or Tony, Sherlock doesn't want them to suffer anything they shouldn't have because of him.

Sherlock may be a salted fish, and he may like peace and quiet, but he doesn't want to be the only one enjoying peace while watching his friends and family get bogged down in trouble.

The last of the three options also served as a reminder to Sherlock that while he was indeed a superhuman and possessed the power of alchemy, not everyone around him possessed such power.

Especially Zhao Weike, although he carries the name of Night Demon, he is essentially just an ordinary person!

Sherlock didn't want Zhao Weike and Helen to encounter things they shouldn't have because of him!

After seeing off the so-called judge, Sherlock's expression gradually relaxed. He didn't rush to open the documents the judge had left on the coffee table, but instead opened the invitation in his hand first.

Although it's called an invitation, it's really just a metal electronic card. The card is very well made, about the size of a bank card, with intricate patterns etched on its surface.

This thing should need to be activated at the mainland hotel, or rather, it should be activated with the help of the Judge, but because of Sherlock's threat just now, this matter has been forgotten.

However, Sherlock didn't care. After all, he probably wouldn't have any contact with the Continental Hotel anymore. Even if he did, he could just take the card and have Zhao Weike take him to the Continental Hotel in New York to activate it.

You can also visit some of the movie's locations and get to know Winston, that cunning old fox.

Sherlock casually put the metal VIP card into his wallet before opening the information left by the Arbiter to read it.

It turns out that sometimes people can actually laugh when they're speechless. The document details exactly how Obadiah commissioned a mainland hotel to assassinate his parents, who the person who accepted the order was, and what methods were used to carry out the assassination.

Most importantly, this is almost entirely filled with Obadiah's outrageous antics, leaving Sherlock utterly speechless.

Well, Tony's investigation was correct. Obadiah did not come into contact with any suspicious persons, because Obadiah only came into contact with his subordinates!

It's just a small cleaning company belonging to Obadiah!

Furthermore, according to Tony's information, the purpose of this cleaning company is quite simple: to clean Obadiah's estate.

Of course, these are just the surface-level things. The truth is that this cleaning company is essentially a cleaning team affiliated with a hotel in mainland China.

Although there is also regular cleaning service, this part of the business is mostly just cleaning Obadiah's estate.

That's right, the one who took the order wasn't some assassin, but Obadiah's own scavenger team!

This cleaning team belonging to Obadiah was not only responsible for their cleaning duties, but also secretly helped Obadiah collect "evidence" so that he could "threaten" those high-ranking officials or shareholders.

As for why all of them are Obadiah's own people, why they have to be seconded to the mainland hotel, and why Obadiah specifically designated the cleaning team at the mainland hotel to be assigned tasks by name.

It's simple: Obadiah needed to help his cleaning team gain a reputation within the Continental Hotel in this way, making it easier for him to gather intelligence! Coincidentally, the Continental Hotel actually condoned this.

As for intelligence gathering, it's important to understand that in the scavenger's domain, anything left at the scene is essentially extra income for the scavenger, which is a normal practice.

As for intelligence gathering, it's fair to say that this cleaner has a bad reputation, but it doesn't mean their business is bad. In fact, the opposite is true; their business is top-notch.

It can only be said that Obadiah had calculated everything and truly maximized his interests. He just never expected that these things would fall into the eyes of S.H.I.E.L.D., and even into the hands of Sherlock, his victim.

Without pausing to read the contents of the document, Sherlock immediately packed up, drove off, and left.

Now that they know who the other person is, Sherlock has no reason to let them live, does he?

They sped along the road and soon arrived at the cleaning company that the cleaners used to conceal their identities. After entering, Sherlock did not hesitate at all and immediately pulled out the black gun that Tony had made at his house, and decisively fired a few shots into the air.

As the gunshots rang out, the ordinary workers who were unaware of the company's true situation screamed and fled. Sherlock did not stop them at all. Although there might be some who slipped through the net, Sherlock himself was not particularly concerned.

Soon after all the ordinary people had left, Sherlock did not hesitate at all. He took out his Spear of Longinus and started playing "Battle Royale" in the small cleaning company.

These ordinary people could hardly cause any harm to Sherlock, so anyone Sherlock discovered was basically strung up by him.

After walking and stopping along the way, Sherlock soon arrived at the door of a room with the door tightly closed. When Sherlock opened the door, he was immediately stunned by what he saw.

This is a filing cabinet; almost every time a cleaning task is successfully completed, the process and thought process are left here.

On the one hand, it serves as a record, and on the other hand, it also acts as a learning room for newcomers.

And it just so happens that Sherlock found his parents' files inside, finally learning how these guys had killed them.

It's ridiculous, and even seems incredibly simple.

All you need to do is mix some other liquid into the aviation kerosene!

After a plane takes off normally, changes in the environment at high altitude can alter the liquid, making it almost easy for the plane to lose power and crash.

Once a plane crashes, its liquid state makes it extremely difficult to detect in the surrounding environment, thus enabling the assassination to be carried out.

What angered Sherlock was that these people were so ruthless that they would sacrifice an entire plane full of people just to kill his parents!

Such incidents are even commonplace in this document room!

Hearing the increasingly loud and approaching sirens outside, Sherlock thought for a moment, then casually packed a few documents, and with the packed documents and his parents' documents, he opened the Anywhere Door and disappeared from the spot.
