Reborn in Marvel, I am Iron Man's son?

But they haven't started their operation yet, so logically the target shouldn't be detected in advance.

With two security teams providing close protection, the Blackfire Gang's attempt to take down Mark would inevitably cause a huge commotion, which is not what Derek wants to see.

"Keep an eye on Mark and his crew, see when they leave the hotel, and let me know when they do..."

Derek instructed Damir.

He had just ended the call when he received two more bad messages.

"Boss, this is bad! The police suddenly raided our nightclub and arrested Boss Hoss and a dozen of his men on charges of drug trafficking!"

"Boss, the police just raided our bar and arrested Eaton on the spot while he was sexually assaulting a girl. Our bar has also been shut down!"

Upon receiving the news, Derek's face had turned extremely grim.

He immediately notified the company's legal department, instructing them to go to the police station immediately and bail the person out.

"Something's not right!"

Derek had already keenly sensed that someone might be secretly targeting their Blackfire Gang.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that the police arrived so quickly right after someone from their Black Fire Gang committed a crime.

Chapter Twenty-Four: Riots

Hilton Hotel.

Rachel happily counted the banknotes in her hand in the room.

When she went downstairs to eat earlier, she was suddenly stopped by a strong young man.

Rachel initially thought that the other man was like any other man, trying to hit on her and ask her out.

Unexpectedly, after giving her $1000, the other party started asking her about Rosalie and her son Mark.

Rachel realized that the other person seemed to be a gangster and that he had ill intentions towards Rosalie.

But Rachel still told Rosalie everything she knew, including that she had hired a top-notch team of bodyguards.

She was already hoping Rosalie would suffer, so naturally she wouldn't cover for her in any way.

As Rachel counted the money, she secretly hoped that something would happen to Rosalie and her son.

The security team sent by Bell Film Company finally arrived early the next morning.

This security team consists of more than ten people, all of whom are armed.

However, in terms of both equipment and personal qualities, they are far inferior to Rosalie's security team.

Kellerb was finally relieved to see these people arrive.

"Director, why did the company suddenly send so many security guards?"

The other actors then realized something was wrong.

Kellerb gave them a day off without any reason yesterday, and today the company sent so many security guards. Something seems wrong.

"Our film crew has been targeted by a local gang..."

This time, Caleb didn't hide it anymore and told everyone that the Blackfire Gang had their eyes on their film crew.

"Wow! The New York gangs are absolutely lawless!"

"I had heard that New York was a chaotic place, with tourists often disappearing without a trace. I never imagined that even with so many people in our crew, we wouldn't be safe!"

"..."

The crew was taken aback upon hearing this.

Fortunately, the security personnel sent by Bell Pictures had arrived, preventing them from panicking.

Some people also looked at Rosalie, who was being closely protected by two female bodyguards.

They then realized that Rosalie must have received this information long ago, otherwise she wouldn't have suddenly hired a top-notch bodyguard team at a high price.

"We're now heading to the film set. Filming will proceed as scheduled for today!"

Kellerb announced to the crowd.

The crew immediately left the hotel under the escort of security personnel and drove to the film set.

Rosalie and Mark did not ride in the same car as the rest of the crew this time.

They sat in a bulletproof vehicle arranged by Universal Security, traveling alongside the film crew's vehicles.

"Boss, I saw the crew leave the hotel and head to the film set! However, Bell Film Company has sent over a dozen security guards, and they're moving with the crew now!"

On an apartment building not far away, Damir was watching the film crew leave by car through binoculars, while reporting the situation to Derek.

"Damn it! Our plan has definitely been leaked!"

Derek cursed angrily, his face darkening.

He no longer harbored any illusions, realizing that the production crew must have found out about his plans to target them.

"Damir, you idiot! You must have been discovered by the crew while you were spying on them!"

Derek gave Damir a severe dressing-down over the phone.

"So... Boss, should we continue with our plan?"

Damir was so ashamed of his words that he could not lift his head and could only ask sheepishly in the end.

Derek's expression shifted, but he finally gritted his teeth and said, "The plan can't stop. You keep a close eye on them. If we find an opportunity, we'll act immediately! If we don't find an opportunity, we'll create one!"

He can no longer give up now, otherwise the consequences of offending Epstein would be unbearable for the Blackfire Gang.

Upon entering the film set, the film company's security personnel separated the hundreds of extras and crew members to prevent any ill-intentioned individuals from being mixed in among the extras.

Faith, who was next to Rosalie, arranged for two of her snipers to occupy two high points around the film set.

Once everything was arranged, Kellerb announced the start of filming.

For the next few days, filming went smoothly, and everything seemed to have returned to normal.

But Alice discovered through the drone that the people watching the film crew hadn't disappeared; in fact, there were even more of them!

This is enough to show that the Black Fire Gang has not given up on its plan to target the film crew, and may even be more eager to do so.

This alerted Mark, and he continued to use his hacking skills every night to search for evidence of the Blackfire Gang's crimes.

The arrest of that gang leader named Hoss last time did indeed raise the Blackfire Gang's alarm.

However, the Black Fire Gang has too many illegal businesses, generating astonishing profits every day, and these gang members are unlikely to let the money go to waste.

They were as careful as possible when making the transaction.

However, despite Mark's pervasive cyber intrusions, one case of human trafficking, two cases of drug trafficking, and two cases of violent assault against women were still captured on camera.

"Unfortunately, there are still many places without internet access, places of darkness that I cannot reach."

"Maybe once I've saved enough capital, I can build a smartphone factory and create smartphones ahead of schedule, then my eyes will be all over the world..."

Mark made up his mind in his heart.

He then had Alice send the footage of the crime she had filmed to the nearest police station.

Nanhu Street Police Station.

Thompson's email inbox once again received videos of crimes committed by members of the Blackfire Gang.

Without any hesitation, after obtaining the arrest warrant, he once again dispatched his officers to make the arrest!

Thompson knew that someone was secretly using him as a weapon against the Blackfire Gang.

But as long as the evidence of the crime provided by the other party is true and valid, nothing else matters!

Over the years, many police officers have lost their lives in the open and covert struggles with the Blackfire Gang, and Thompson has long hated this cancerous tumor to the core.

He wouldn't mind being the scapegoat as long as he could eliminate the other party.

Thompson had previously notified the police department's cybersecurity experts to try and find the person who sent the anonymous emails.

However, the other party's network technology was very advanced, and the police's network experts were unable to track them down. Thompson eventually had no choice but to give up.

Blackfire Company Building.

Upon learning that more than a dozen gang members had been arrested by the police, Derek angrily overturned the desk in his office!

"Damn it! How could the police get the information so accurately? There must be a mole in our gang, and he's not a low-ranking member! Find him and I'll chop him up and feed him to the dogs!"

Derek gave orders to his men in a cold voice.

He had previously wanted the company's legal department to bail out the arrested members, but the police refused, citing the seriousness of the case and the conclusive evidence.

With so many people being arrested now, some of the illicit businesses under the Black Fire Gang are starting to run into problems.

This caused Derek considerable trouble, forcing him to postpone the original plan to capture Mark.

"Ringling..."

Just then, an anonymous call came in.

Upon seeing the phone call, Derek's expression changed, and he instantly suppressed all his anger.

"gentlemen?"

Derek's voice became respectful.

"It's me! How's that thing I asked you to do last time?"

A deep male voice came from the phone.

"Well, the gang has run into some trouble lately, so..."

Derek stammered, trying to explain.

"You don't need to explain to me!"

The man on the other end of the phone impatiently interrupted him: "Mr. Epstein has a party in a week. He's hosting a distinguished guest, and this boy named Mark is the perfect gift for him! If you can't send him over within a week, you'll be in for Mr. Epstein's wrath!"

"Yes, yes, I will do my best to get this done within a week."

Derek could only nod in agreement helplessly.

Seemingly sensing Derek's lack of confidence, the voice on the other end paused slightly before saying, "How about this... I'll send someone over to help you in a couple of days. With his help, capturing this little boy named Mark will be much easier."

"Yes, thank you, sir."

Derek thanked him verbally, but inwardly he didn't think much of it.

Although the Blackfire Gang has recently encountered some troubles, if all members are mobilized, there are still one or two hundred brothers who can carry guns.

What good is it if the other side only sends one person?

The next two days passed peacefully, and the crew encountered no problems while filming.

Kellerb and the rest of the crew gradually lowered their guard.

They thought the Blackfire Gang might have seen that the film crew had security and wouldn't dare to provoke them anymore.

Even the dozen or so security guards from Bell Film Company became lax, often taking time to chat and laugh with the actresses on set.

On the contrary, Rosalie and Mark's bodyguards would plan their routes in advance every day before going out and rehearse how to deal with various crises they might encounter.

Once on set, they meticulously complete all the setups.

In terms of professionalism, they completely outclassed the security personnel at Bell Pictures.

"You really do get what you pay for; that $200 million was well spent!"

Mark was very satisfied with the performance of the bodyguards.

Of course, he himself never let his guard down.

Mark always had a drone monitoring the surrounding area above him, and he always carried two modified stun guns in his satchel.

On the day they finished filming the last scene, as Caleb was about to announce the end of filming, the extras on the perimeter suddenly started to riot.

"Damn capitalists! We extras are human beings too, and they pay us too little!"

"Great! We work such long hours every day and only get $80? We want a raise!"

"..."

Incited by those with ulterior motives, the hundreds of extras around them quickly became angry and began pushing and shoving towards the crew.
