Chapter 23 The Italians in the Church

Chapter 23 The Italians in the Church
St. Mark's Basilica is a Catholic church established by the Italians during the wave of European immigration to North America in the 18th century.

In the early morning, Barney walked into the church carrying a black leather bag and sat in a corner of the central hall.

The officiant was reciting prayers on the stage, and the deep and refreshing voice seemed to echo in the towering and spacious hall. The believers in the audience listened carefully with solemn expressions.

After Mass, the faithful lined up to donate to the offering box, and Barney went straight into the confessional.

The confession room is also called the confession room. It is a closed wooden cabin located in the church hall. There is a bamboo curtain in the middle to separate the believers from the priest. You can only hear his voice but not see him.

Barney followed the previously familiar process and said piously: "My sin, my sin, my serious sin. For this reason, I implore the lifelong virgin Mary, angels, and saints to pray for the forgiveness of the Lord, our God."

The priest on the other side of the bamboo curtain said:
"Amen, boy, repent, God is listening."

Barney coughed, returned to his normal speaking tone, and said: "Hey, well, I want to buy Chitauri weapons through you. I brought a deposit of [-] U.S. dollars. You go to the Astronaut Bar to buy it, and I will give it to you afterwards." Draw."

The priest said: "Barney, isn't what you are doing under Thomas the Chitauri weapon business? Why do you still want to buy through us?"

The Italian gang didn't know that the Astros bar had changed owners, let alone that Thomas was killed by Bullseye.

In view of this, Silton made up a reason for Barney——

"No one wants to stay and work under someone else forever. I have already organized people to overthrow Thomas and become my own boss. Now the only thing I need is weapons and equipment.

But I definitely can't go out and buy it directly, so I thought of you. "

The priest nodded, "Well, come with me, let's find a convenient place to discuss."

Barney said piously: "May the Almighty God have mercy on me, forgive my sins, and give me eternal life."

"Amen, child, repent, God will forgive your sins." The priest's voice was still solemn.

……

Silton asked Barney to schedule the delivery in three days.

night of the day.

Silton, who was waiting for news in his bedroom, received a text message from Barney:

"The time is tonight, the car has parked in the 10th block, be careful."

Silton got dressed, took a deep breath, opened the window and jumped out.

He didn't have any cushioning skills, he just relied on his defensive power to land heavily on the ground.

According to the location mentioned in the text message, Silton found the car that Barney had bought for him.

Although Silton has learned to drive, but because he is not full, he only has a Teen License, which is a restricted driver's license.

This kind of driver's license allows you to drive in the company of a guardian during the day, but you cannot drive at night even with a guardian.

There is no one to accompany it, and it is not daytime, but considering that this is a chaotic America with Avengers, super villains, and aliens, illegal driving should not be considered a big deal.

After all, Thanos snapped his fingers and rubbed half of the people into flying ash, and I didn't see NYPD arresting them, and I didn't see the court prosecute...

In the plan, Bullseye's truck should come from Massachusetts on the east side, and in order to avoid the checkpoint, it will take a deserted road in the suburbs.

After driving for nearly an hour, Silton turned off the car, turned off the lights, and parked beside the abandoned road.

This road has not been used for a long time, and the surrounding weeds are overgrown. The weeds and shrubs are nearly half the height of a person.

Rows of thick concrete piers were poured in the center of the road as roadblocks, but due to man-made damage, several roadblocks in the center were smashed, and the opening width could allow a large truck to pass through.

There were no street lights on this road, and Silton was not afraid of being discovered. He walked to the middle of the road and sat down with his back against a concrete pier, facing east, waiting for the truck transporting Chitauri weapons to come.

Silton thought it over, and after a while his own body filled the missing barricade in the center and knocked over the truck.

The wild roads in the suburbs are cold, the air is filled with the fresh smell of grass and trees, and from time to time, unknown insects can be heard.

In the night sky like a black curtain, the bright moon hung high, and Silton, who was waiting quietly, looked at the sky ecstatically.

……

After returning from the mission, Wood parked the car opposite the apartment where Silton and May lived.

The Avengers have arrived in Sokovia under the arrangement of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent has also returned to his regular task-protecting and monitoring Silton Parker.

Wood took out his mobile phone and frowned. The location of Silton's mobile phone displayed on the screen was not in the apartment.

Quickly dialed Silton's phone, a busy tone came from the speaker, and Wood tapped the phone on the steering wheel——

"Where did this kid go!"

……

Barney's house is rented in Brooklyn, New York City, which is close to the slums, but fortunately it is cheap.

This short, stocky man has a simple mind, and because he doesn't think much about things, he never suffers from insomnia. Within 5 minutes of his head touching the pillow, he can snore deafeningly.

But tonight, he couldn't sleep.

He always felt that there was something wrong with Silton's plan, but he couldn't tell where the problem was——

There are several deserted wild roads from Massachusetts to New York State. Why did Bullseye's truck have to take the one chosen by Shilton?
Just because that road is more remote and easier to be ambushed?Or, did Silton have other calculations?

What if they don't go that way?Wouldn't it be tonight—

"Jingle bell... Jingle bell..."

Barney's cell phone rang, and he woke up quickly. Was it from Silton?Was he in any danger—

"Boom! Crash!"

After a violent crash, the glass was smashed and scattered all over the floor, and a tall and slender figure flew out of the window.

"Who!"

Barney jumped up from the bed, took advantage of the moonlight to distinguish the position of the man, and swung a heavy fist!
Although the figure was tall, it was extremely flexible, and its unarmed combat ability was far superior to Barney's. He tilted his head to avoid Barney's fist, and with a push, Barney fell to the ground before he could control the inertia of his forward charge.

The outside figure twisted Barney's arm forward, put his knee on his neck, and said in a low voice:

"Say! Where is Silton!"

"Sey, Silton?"

"Yes, Shildon Parker! His cell phone is off, and the last call was to you!"

No matter how dull Barney was, he vaguely figured out what was going on: "Is your name Wood? The bodyguard that Silton mentioned?"

Barney's cell phone was not turned off. Agent Wood found Barney's location through satellite positioning, and then called Barney to find his floor, and then the previous battle took place.

"It's me, where is Silton?"

"Oh, it hurts, it hurts, let me get up and I'll tell you..."
