American comics survival daily life

By the time Mark thought of causing trouble for Barn, it was already the next day.

After returning home from Julia's place, Mark didn't even have time to rest. After having a delicious lunch with Kate, who had just returned home, Mark was put on bed by Kate, who had finally taken a break, and started another exciting and painful activity.

After the clouds cleared and the rain fell, Mark only had the energy to sit on the bedside and smoke a cigarette. After finishing smoking, Mark fell asleep in a hurry and forgot about Barn.

After waking up from the pink dream, Mark once again felt the long-lost feeling of kidney overdraft. At this time, Mark could be said to be angry with Barn.

On the one hand, Mark believed that it was Barn's interference that made Leilith call her Mark for so long, instead of the father she imagined. On the other hand, Mark, as Lelis's father, really couldn't bear to say that he was trapped by a gangster.

Especially when he thought about his affair with Julia and Kelly in the past two days, that bastard Barn was probably doing unspeakable things to Lelis, and Mark's anger as a new old father was about to burst out. !

An unknown cafe in Queens, underneath Barn and Lelis's den. Barn and the grumpy middle-aged Mark sat across from each other.

Mark stared at Barn across the street with a cold face - the slightest affection he had for this boy was gone!

Put a check for one hundred thousand dollars, a Glock 18 and a pair of silver shackles on the table. Obviously, our Mr. Mark gave Barn a life test——

As for Barn's choice, does it matter? The negative answer was clearly written in Mark's mind. Even if this gangster turned from a gangster to a good student, he would still be just a gangster in Mark's eyes.

Barn glanced at the two strong men in black behind Mark and said, "Mr. Mark, I know it's hard for you to accept the fact that your daughter who just reunited has a boyfriend, so you put on such a scene to persuade Len and me. Liz separated...

Based on your past in Midtown Middle School, I know you don’t believe in true love. It just so happens that I don’t like to behave like a clown in a second-rate TV series. "

"So...you accept my kindness?" Mark raised his eyebrows and expressed that he was very happy to hear this reply.

"No, Mr. Mark, I think you misunderstood me. I mean, it's Lalis who needs me now, not our love or anything else that connects us. Likewise, Lalis needs me." It's all about me.

Let me simply ask, Mr. Mark, do you know when Lalis’s birthday is? "

Although he spoke calmly, it was the first time that Barn experienced such an exciting thing as confronting his future father-in-law. Behind Mark's invisible back, sweat had soaked through his shirt.

"..." Mark was speechless.

Although she loves her daughter in every possible way, Lailis, who has just recognized her biological father, obviously has not yet completely opened her heart to him.

Just like what Barn said, Barn is more important and indispensable than Mark to Lalith now.

Mark, who was choked by Barn's words, his eyes gradually became dangerous, and he couldn't help but look at Glock on the table. His mind was racing, and Mark had already had the idea of ​​killing her with a shot...

Suddenly, Barn picked up the Glock on the table.

Mark's face was filled with joy, and he almost had "Come and beat me" written all over his face. However, to his surprise, Barn's gun was pointed at his head——

"Bang~"

There was no situation where the yellow and white things were all over the place as expected, and Barn was still sitting there peacefully. Although the surprise on Mark's face disappeared for a moment, and he continued to show the smile of the old god - it was a joke. Mark had not been afraid of this thing since he was born. If you show off in front of him, I'm afraid it won't be a big show in front of Guan Gong.

Seeing Mark's unknown smile, Barn decided that although he might not completely accept himself, at least the plan was not ruined! Mark didn't immediately lift the gun to fire him again. This was the greatest success! As for adventure, let’s sprinkle some water~

"Director Mark...forgive me for calling you so formally. I want to protect myself and Lailis in the past few years of living in the lower city. I still have some ability to protect myself.

Next time you come to see me, please don’t bring this gadget with you. It’s useless to us anyway, right? "After that, Barn smiled at Mark, who had a smile on his face, and turned to leave.

After returning to his apartment, Barn's steady breathing that he had maintained for a long time suddenly became disordered. He said to Skye who was teaching Lelis how to use the computer in the room, "Thank you so much this time, Skye. If it weren't for your help, I would still be here." You may not be able to scare Lailis’ father~”

Obviously, the calmness that Barn just pretended to be was the result of Skye's technical support.

Regardless of Mark's identity as the acting director of the FBI's New York office or his consistent style of doing things, Barn relied on Skye's network technology to learn about it in advance.
