American Comics: The Law of Strength

Chapter 87: The End

"Boom!"

Diane's fist hung heavily on the huge desk, the documents and papers on the table were instantly scattered on the ground, and the assistant standing nearby subconsciously stretched out his hand to pick it up, but looked at Diane's angry red cheeks, and carefully threw the documents back to the ground, and then stood quietly aside.

"So... Is Joshua dead? "

Diane swallowed her anger and repeated her question again, but she didn't want to confirm the answer again, she was forcing herself to accept reality.

Peter just nodded silently, and as for other messages, he didn't dare to say more, after all, Joshua died at his hands.

Although he killed the other party only out of self-defense.

Diane probably couldn't imagine that the aid she had exchanged for human favors would cause Peter great trouble, and even Peter himself did not expect things to develop like this.

And the reason why Joshua chose to attack Peter in violation of the agreement is both very reasonable and ridiculous.

Because Peter now uses the "Imperial Horizon" to kill enemies to extract power whenever he has any opportunity, but it is very unfortunate that Joshua, as a clergyman, detected the existence of demonic power.

After many observations, he discovered the hidden demon Ram fused in Peter's body, and then attacked him without hesitation.

And after realizing the reason why the other party attacked him, Peter could not let the other party live.

Diane lamented silently, more troubled than saddened by Joshua's death.

Although the church where Joshua was stationed looked rather dilapidated, he had a transcendent position in the church and could be said to be a figure like the Son.

Now she is dying in the conflict of the Bernano family, this is not a debt that can be repaid with just one favor, if she does not handle it well, the covenant between her family and the church for hundreds of years may cause a rift, and even become an enemy!

The look on Diane's face grew pained at the thought of the compensation she would have to pay and the compromises she would have to make to make amends for Joshua's death in the future.

In this attack, although the Bernano family won a big victory on the surface, in fact, they did not get any benefits.

The benefits exchanged for trading with Fisk were personally sent to the government department as evidence to prove the Fisk Group, and all the industries belonging to the Fisk Group were also sealed by the government, but they lost a lot of manpower in this attack, and even the family business was greatly affected.

For this reason, important members of the family even began to question Diane's abilities, and even her father's prestige was hit.

As for Fisk, after the failed attack, the figure who had just emerged and aimed at the king of the underground world decisively chose to retreat and break his tail to survive.

He left behind a large number of industries and interests, and disappeared without a trace.

Even Diane and Eric were unexpected, for Fisker to give up a lot of assets and wealth so decisively.

Under the operation of the Bernano family, a large amount of assets belonging to Fisk were seized by the government, and the arrest warrant of every important member of the Fisk group was signed by the judge the next day.

But Fisk himself, thanks to Murdoch's assistance, is a five-star good citizen in the government's record, and he has almost no connection between his identity and industry, let alone the crime that can arrest him, not even a car accident.

In the end, the Bernano family did not lose, but they did not win either.

Not only do you need to pay the churches that support them, but now you need to add reparations for Joshua's death.

And the only thing that the Bernano family can be considered to have gained in this attack is Miss Felicia, who is sitting quietly on the side, silently watching the scenery outside the window.

At this time, the charming, lazy and sexy appearance on Felicia's body has disappeared without a trace, and has completely become a cold-faced and cold-hearted three-nil beauty.

Since realizing that her father may be long gone, she has only one goal left in life, and that is to avenge the two bastards who killed her father and tricked her into serving him.

That's why she's here.

She has an extremely clear understanding of her own strength, so she knows very well that even now that Fisk has been greatly damaged, she will not be able to fight Fisk and Murdoch.

As the enemy of Fisk's enemies, Peter, who is powerful and has already made an agreement with her, is her most suitable ally, and there is simply no more perfect partner than him.

Moreover, Peter also has a reason to cooperate with her, Joshua's death will be doubted after all, and she, as the only person on the scene who survived, is also the only "witness" that Peter can help him cover up the truth.

"Well... So the serum formula you said can strengthen the human quality has not been obtained? "

Seeing Peter's silent shaking of his head, Diane finally reluctantly accepted the status quo, if there is that serum formula, as long as it is shared with the church, it should be able to make up for Joshua's death...

"Regarding Joshua's death, you need to submit a detailed report afterwards, a very detailed kind."

Diane rubbed her temples, thinking about ways to minimize the damage, and then Diane tapped lightly on the table again and emphasized:

"Although I asked Joshua to support you, his death is very important, and I will try to deal with all this, but this time I repaid the favor once."

Diane, who had finally calmed down completely, looked at the assistant, who immediately began to pick up the scattered documents and put them in place according to the previous arrangement.

Then she looked at Felicia.

"As for her deal with you... We will indeed continue to hunt down Fisk, but he is no longer our imminent problem, and although we will provide the necessary support, it is nothing more, so her affairs will be handled by you. "

Then Diane shook her head again and gently persuaded:

"Now Fisker has not only lost a lot of industry, but also lost his prestige and status in the underground world, and his vitality has been greatly damaged, at least for a few years, they must lurk in the deepest part of the underground world, posing no threat to us.

Moreover, because of their recent huge moves, they have already been targeted by various forces, and if they show flaws, they may not need our family's hand, and they will be eaten away by all forces. "

Felicia, on the other hand, looked at Peter, and the emotions in his eyes did not fluctuate at all, and Peter shook his head even more helplessly.

Diane didn't say anything more, and now her work has increased several times, and she no longer has the ability and mood to manage too much.

"Gwen has now been sent back to the villa to recuperate, you can visit her when you have time."

Diane used this sentence as a sign of the end of the conversation, and then she buried her head in a large number of documents.

And after Peter left, Diane took a deep breath, threw the document in her hand aside, leaned her shoulders on the chair, and pouted her lips, revealing an extremely tired look.

I went to Ottawa for a mission these days, used my mobile phone to take advantage of the break time to ensure full attendance, but when I came back and began to check against the outline, I found that I actually messed up the order of several events, and there were exactly three days off, so I was entangled in whether to continue to write this way by mistake or correct the content of the previous six or seven chapters...

I already knew that I shouldn't have done this for Quan Qian, who had less than three hundred knives
