American comic mercenaries

A few days later, Ivan saw John again at the Continental Hotel, but he was in a bit of a mess now, his suit was a little tattered and he had gunshot wounds, and blood stains had stained a large area of ​​his white shirt red.

Ivan found that John was full of murderous intent and did not restrain himself at all after entering the hotel, so he chased after him, "John, what happened? Why are you being rewarded again?"

John walked towards the bar and said in a hoarse voice: "Evan, you are right. Sure enough, it is impossible for me to live a peaceful life again."

"???"

Although Ivan didn't know what happened, he followed John to the bar of the Continental Hotel, where he met the hotel manager Winston. At the same time, there was a man sitting next to him. When he saw John, he couldn't help but look... There was a moment of panic, but he quickly regained his composure.

John came to sit across from the two of them, looked at the man and said directly: "I have completed the task, it is time to return my blood contract to me."

Hearing this, Ivan thought: "This guy actually has John's blood contract badge."

The blood contract badge is a token on the high table, which represents the oath between soul and blood. There are two finger-sized spaces inside. One side is printed with the blood fingerprint of the promisee, and the other side is blank. When the holder uses the badge to make a promise, The person makes a request, and the promisee must accept it (unless commit suicide), otherwise he will be severely punished. Once the promisee completes the task as required, the holder will pierce his finger with the spike on the badge and put a bloody fingerprint on the blank space. After both parties are marked with bloody fingerprints, it means that the creed of the badge has been fulfilled, and the promisee is no longer bound by the badge and is free.

Under normal circumstances, few killers would be willing to sign a blood contract badge. Ivan looked at this man and wondered what happened to John back then to sign a blood contract badge with this guy. It seemed that something was wrong with John. It was related to the task of completing the badge. Thinking of this, Ivan followed and sat next to John. The man glanced at Ivan and then turned his attention back to John.

Winston said: "Sentino, John has completed the task as you asked, and now it's your turn to return his blood contract to him."

Santino took out the blood contract badge from his arms, opened the cover and pierced his finger with the spikes on the badge, put a bloody fingerprint on the other half of the blank space, and then handed the badge to Winston, who said After checking it and finding that there was nothing wrong, he handed the badge to John.

After John accepted the blood contract badge, his murderous intent became even stronger. He looked at Santino and said coldly: "Now it's time to settle our affairs."

Santino became somewhat emboldened because he was now in the Continental Hotel. He looked at John and said disdainfully: "What's there to say? You killed my sister. Naturally, I posted the reward to avenge her."

Hearing this, Ivan suddenly remembered. It seems that the killing of your dog in the second part of John Wick has already happened. The guy named Santino in front of him has John's blood contract badge. When he heard that John After coming back, he came over and asked John to kill his sister Gianna in exchange for the badge.

Santino's family, the Italian gang, occupies one of the twelve seats at the high table, and his sister Gianna is the one who inherited this seat. Unless Gianna dies, he will not be able to grab the seat. He uses the badge to let John After getting rid of Jaina, he would avenge his sister by offering a reward to John, so that he could legitimately inherit the seat.

Ivan looked at Santino and sighed in his heart, this guy's operation is really quite coquettish, he really fulfilled the sentence of being a bitch and setting up a chastity memorial.

Winston noticed something was wrong with John, frowned and said, "John, you should be very aware of the hotel's rules."

Santino said contemptuously: "Yes, if you dare to kill me in the hotel, what awaits you in the future will be an endless pursuit."

"I know the consequences!"

The two of them obviously underestimated John's murderous intention. Gianna was considered John's friend. When she knew that John was here to kill her, she acted very calmly because she knew that her brother had John's blood contract badge in his hand. This was all certain. It was his idiot brother who used the blood contract badge to ask John to do it. When he saw that John was hesitant, he chose to commit suicide. This made John feel guilty. He originally thought that everything was over, but then Santino's dirty tricks , which made John feel sick. After a life-and-death fight, John only wanted to kill Santino, a bitch.

When John put his hand into his clothes and prepared to take out a gun to kill Santino, Ivan held down his arm and said, "John, if you kill him now, you will really not be able to live a peaceful life in the future. "

John tried hard with his arms to break away from Ivan's hand, but it felt like he was being pushed against a rock, and he couldn't move. When he was about to say something, he saw the look Ivan gave him.

John gave up his plan to take out his gun and kill Santino, and said to him coldly: "This matter will not be settled like this." Upon seeing this, Ivan also let go of his hand.

Santino didn't take John's threat seriously and sneered: "Let's wait until you survive."

Winston was startled by John's action of pulling out a gun just now. Fortunately, he was stopped by Ivan, otherwise he would not be able to help John. Now seeing that John gave up his plan to kill Santino in the hotel, he said: "Okay, I'm not interested in your affairs. How long do you plan to stay in the hotel, Santino? The seat at the high table will not be given to you here."

"Winston, of course I know this. I will leave when my men arrive." Santino picked up the wine glass and drank slowly.

John was sitting across from Santino and stared at him. Santino was upset, but he didn't dare to leave. Just now, John was ready to draw a gun. If he left the bar alone, John would If you rush up and give yourself a shot, it will be over. You will soon become one of the twelve seats on the High Table. The beautiful life will begin later. Then you can use the power of the High Table to easily eliminate John Wick. It would be safer for me to stay with Winston now.

The four of them sat awkwardly in the booth of the bar. Winston didn't leave because he was afraid that John would do something stupid, and Ivan had something to tell John. Of course, if John didn't leave, he could only sit there like this for an hour. Later, Santino's men came and closely escorted him out of the hotel.

John stood up and wanted to follow him out, but he was held back by Ivan. When there were only three people left in the booth, Ivan said: "John, do you want to sign a blood contract with me?"

"What do you want to do?" John frowned. His current situation was caused by Santino's blood contract badge.

Ivan smiled and said: "You are being rewarded now. Once you go outside, those killers will take action. You stay in the hotel for now and I will help you kill Santino. Then the reward will naturally be gone. As for the blood contract by then, Do you want me to ask for it? Just give me a gold coin."

Winston raised his brows and said with a serious face: "Ivan, Santino is one of the twelve seats on the High Table. The High Table does not allow assassination of high-ranking officials."

Ivan curled his lips disdainfully, "Come on, the blood pact badge was formulated by the High Table. Didn't Santino use this to let John kill Jaina for the twelve seats? With this precedent, the High Table did not change the regulations. Before, this was legal, and besides, Santino is not yet a member of the Twelve Seats, John, what do you think, if you are willing to sign a blood contract, I will set out to kill Santino now."

"Okay, let's sign the blood contract, Winston." John also wanted to understand this. When he attacked Vigo's lair before, Ivan's current skills were also seen by himself. He was even better than before he retired. powerful.

"Hey!" Winston sighed and called someone to get a brand new blood contract badge.

John took the badge, opened the lid without saying a word, pierced his finger with a spike, and put his bloody fingerprint on half of the blank space. When he was about to hand the badge to Ivan, he was rejected.

"John, keep this thing. When I come back, remember to give me a gold coin." Ivan stood up and left the bar.

Winston smiled and picked up the wine glass, slowly shaking the wine in the glass, "John, I found that although you don't have many friends, all of your friends are pretty good."

"Yeah, they're all pretty good." John put the badge in his pocket, then poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
