Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life.
Chapter 76 Winston
The next day, when Sherlock's Bird of Raptor landed in front of the Continental Hotel in New York, Charon from the movie was already waiting at the entrance. When he saw Sherlock and Zhao Weike leading Doro and Helen out of the car, Charon showed no surprise whatsoever.
All that remains is the composure and calmness that comes with professionalism.
"Welcome, Mr. Flamel, and also Mr. Wick."
Because of Sherlock's VIP status, everyone was exempted from paying the one gold coin entrance fee when they entered the Continental Hotel.
As the two stepped into the Continental Hotel in New York, the lobby was completely empty except for Winston, who stood at the front desk, welcoming the four with a smile.
"Welcome back, John Wick! And welcome to the Continental Hotel, Mr. Sherlock Flamel!"
Indeed, the entire Continental Hotel in New York showed an unusually high level of attention to the arrival of Zhao Weike and Sherlock.
There were no secrets for the Continental Hotel. Zhao Weike's most cherished car had been stolen, and Sherlock, who had almost caused the Continental Hotel in Los Angeles to be expelled from the hotel, followed with a dark expression.
That alone was enough to make Winston take it seriously.
Or to put it more bluntly, a stern-faced Sherlock was not enough to make Winston clear out the entire Continental Hotel, just as a stern-faced Zhao Weike was not enough to make Winston clear out the entire Continental Hotel.
But the sullen Sherlock, the sullen Zhao Weike, the woman following behind Zhao Weike, and the little cutie in the woman's arms were enough for Winston to clear out the entire Continental Hotel.
Even if the High Table were to arrive, Winston would still have ample reason to do so. Leaving aside Helen, the safety of that little darling Doro alone would be of utmost importance.
Sherlock dared to storm the Continental Hotel alone for a single document. If Doro were to get injured inside the Continental Hotel, Sherlock would probably smash the so-called High Table.
It's important to know that behind Sherlock is the agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D. The eagle-shaped document that Sherlock placed on the coffee table in the manager's office of the Continental Hotel in Los Angeles, a document that was enough to make the entire high table tremble, still lies in the high table's archives, shining brightly.
Sherlock and Zhao Weike may be angry and furious, but they never take their anger out on others.
Faced with Winston's welcoming smile and the respect he showed him, Zhao Weike reciprocated by placing a gold coin in Winston's hand.
"Winston, I'm sorry to trouble you, but I need a room, a room that is absolutely safe."
Upon hearing Zhao Weike's words, Winston's smile widened, his aged face brimming with pride.
"Of course, John, of course! Continental Hotels will absolutely guarantee the safety of all its guests!"
With that, Winston accepted the gold coins from Zhao Weike, and at that moment, Charon respectfully led Helen and Doro toward the elevator.
Before entering the elevator, Helen reminded Sherlock and Zhao Weike to be careful, then, with a worried look on her face, she carried Doro and followed Charon into the elevator.
It wasn't that Helen didn't want to stop Sherlock and Zhao Weike, but rather that the national circumstances were different. In the United States, people actually believed more in the oldest principle of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" than in the NYPD's crime-solving abilities.
As Helen and Doro left, Winston never asked Sherlock and Zhao Weike what they were up to. He simply smiled and asked Zhao Weike.
"Zhao Weike, do you need weapons and equipment?"
Winston didn't ask Sherlock about it, for a simple reason: the Continental Hotel's intelligence system was universal, and it was easy to find out Sherlock's abilities there.
Whether it was the "piercing" incident in the Middle East or the actions at the Continental Hotel in Los Angeles, everything can be clearly found, and even videos can be found.
After hearing Winston's words, Zhao Weike thought for a moment before nodding. After all, without weapons, he would probably just be a slightly stronger ordinary person.
When Zhao Weike turned to Sherlock, wanting to ask if Sherlock needed it, Sherlock's replica nano-biochemical armor almost instantly covered his entire body. Combined with the simple work clothes he was wearing over it, it created a cyberpunk feel.
Sherlock, on the other hand, not only covered his entire body with his armor, but also instantly produced the "three-no" gun made by Tony.
"Blood debts should be repaid with blood; we should abide by the rules, shouldn't we?"
As Sherlock spoke, he brandished the gun in his hand, making it clear that this time, Sherlock would only use firearms to solve the problem, rather than alchemy.
Of course, it would be more convincing if Sherlock didn't wear that suit of armor that looked like skinned muscle tissue, gleaming with a metallic sheen.
Even so, Winston didn't show any other emotion, he just smiled and said to Sherlock.
"Mr. Flamel, believe me, you would absolutely be an excellent assassin!"
These words made Zhao Weike glance at Winston, but Winston didn't feel uncomfortable at all and remained standing there elegantly.
In the end, Zhao Weike could only manage to utter a single sentence after holding it in for a long time.
"Yeah~"
The two men weren't naive; both Sherlock's armor and the pistol in his hand clearly told the same story.
With these two items, Sherlock would be the nemesis of assassins!
"Take me to choose weapons and clothes!"
Finally, Zhao Weike sighed and spoke to Winston, who nodded in agreement before speaking to Sherlock.
"Mr. Flamel, would you be interested in taking a tour?"
"certainly!"
Sherlock didn't refuse and readily agreed. After all, who could refuse a pilgrimage to a sacred place? Moreover, Sherlock also planned to replenish some weapons and ammunition, and incidentally collect a bulletproof suit from the Continental Hotel.
Following Winston's footsteps, the two soon arrived at the Continental Hotel's basement, where the armory, a famous scene from the movie, appeared before Sherlock.
All I can say is that it lives up to its reputation as a mainland hotel.
Top-tier weapons that require queuing and custom orders outside are displayed like ordinary items on the wall for people to choose from inside the mainland hotel.
The waiter who had been staying in the armory immediately put on a standard aristocratic smile when he saw the group of people walking in.
"Welcome! May I ask what kind of dinner you would like to attend? I can recommend dishes to you based on the type of dinner."
