Beauty Man's Myriad Hearts

It is also a major center of crime and poverty.

……

The black car drove slowly into Harlem without attracting any attention.

But when the car stopped at Harlem Paradise, the most famous nightclub in Harlem, the site of Cornell "Waterbelly" Stokes, the black people gathered nearby cast their eyes.

In particular, when everyone saw two white men getting out of the car, one of them was not very strong, and the other was sitting in a wheelchair and considered disabled, their gazes became hot again.

Across the street, someone looked at each other.

Before they had time to act, a group led by the little black with dreadlocks couldn't wait to get together.

At the same time, a person walked out of the gate of Paradise in Harlem.

He was tall and tall, like a gorilla, with a ferocious look and cold eyes. He looked around the door, abruptly stopping Dreadlock Xiaohei's footsteps, and the rest of the people also avoided him, not daring to look at him.

"Why did Boss Ton come out..."

"Who are those two guys? Boss Ton is here to pick them up?"

Everyone lowered their voices and observed from the corner of their eyes, a trace of strong curiosity emerged in their hearts.

They know this man.

Cotton Snake, Cornell Stokes' second-in-command, Tone.

Cottonmouth is the undisputed kingpin of Harlem.

Ruler of Harlem Paradise!

In this area, no one dares to offend a waterbell snake.

When a group of people were still wondering, they saw Ton respectfully say to David in front of him:

"Mr. Fisk, Harlem Paradise welcomes you. Mr. Stokes has been waiting for you for a long time."

welcome?

Everyone was shocked, and there was an unprecedented look of joy in an instant.

Cornell Stokes, a guest of the waterbellies!

Where did this big shot come from? !

The bottom gangsters like them know better than anyone what the gang leader's guests represent.

In particular, the waterbelly snake sent its deputy, and Ton greeted him personally!

Who is this man in a wheelchair?

Fisk?

Is there a big guy in New York named Fisk?

Everyone thought in their hearts.

Dirty-braided Xiao Hei and his accomplices scattered in an instant, fearing that his previous actions would be discovered and cause the other party's displeasure, causing unwarranted disasters.

……

David actually noticed the actions of Dreadlock Xiaohei and others, but he didn't care about the episode in front of him.

It is conceivable that white people are discriminated against in black communities, and robbery and extortion are commonplace.

Harlem is nominally the soul of black culture, but in fact the main theme is chaos and poverty.

Almost half of the 30-odd residents in this area are closely related to gangs.

He follows Ton into the nightclub.

The daytime nightclub is not open yet, so it can't be called a business, but there are many thugs guarding it inside.

The three of them passed by all the way to the luxurious box located in the deepest part of the nightclub.

This is Cottonmouth, Stokes' office.

When David and Wesley appeared, they found Cornell Stokes sitting in his boss chair with a calm expression.

Opposite him, a man was tied to a chair with a thick hemp rope, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his eyes were in a daze, obviously he had been severely tortured and interrogated.

Cornell Stokes, about forty years old, is a black man with a bald head and a suit and leather shoes. He looks like an elite school. No one would think that he is a gang leader based on his appearance.

"David, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon."

Stokes looked at the man in the wheelchair in front of him, without the slightest contempt in his eyes, and said slowly: "Today's matter is very simple, I have already arrested him, right in front of us, he is yours."

"He dared to make trouble in the neutral zone?"

David nodded, looking at the man who was tied to the iron chair with a rope, in a trance, and seemed to have lost his consciousness, with a strange expression on his face.

His purpose of coming here today is very simple.

Between the major gangs in the underground world, a truce zone will be set up, which is called a neutral zone.

No one is allowed to move their hands in the neutral zone.

Even just ordinary fighting is not allowed.

As for the order of the neutral zone in New York's underground world, there is no doubt that Jin Bin is responsible for the main maintenance work. All gangs who agree with this rule are obliged to obey Jin Bin's orders and assist Jin Bin to maintain order.

To put it simply, anyone who dares to make trouble in the neutral zone will be regarded as a provocation to Jin Bin, and Jin Bin can mobilize all the forces in New York's underground world to attack any provocateur.

"What's his name?"

David asked.

"Shaz."

"He's from High Gate Prison in Georgia," Stokes said.

Georgia, generally refers to Georgia, one of the seven states in the southeastern United States, the capital is Atlanta.

Of course, in Stokes' words, the key is not Georgia, but Haimen Prison!

David had little impression of this prison.

But he vaguely remembered that in the Marvel world, there were several well-known characters who were prisoners in this prison.

For example, Trevor Slattery, the fake adult in Iron Man 3, and Justin Hammer, the CEO of Hammer Industries in Iron Man 2.

"Haimen Prison?"

David pondered for a while: "He comes from prison, it doesn't seem worth mentioning."

Hell's Kitchen, Harlem, and even the underground gangs of New York, who hasn't seen a few people who have been in prison?

In the eyes of the chaotic underground gang, going to jail is not a bad thing, but a symbol of honor.

You have to go out and say that you have never been to prison, and you have never done anything illegal, but you will be looked down upon by your gangster friends.

Underground gangsters love it more than they hate it.

"Haygate Prison is a private prison, and its boss is called Albert Rackham."

Waterbell snake, Cornell Stokes said: "This man named Shaz is a prisoner in Haimen Prison. The reason why he came to New York was to follow Lacombe's order to find a guy who escaped from prison. .”

"According to his account, it was precisely because he saw that person in the neutral zone that he made a move."

"The guy who escaped?" David pondered, and glanced at Shazi who was trapped in the chair. "What's the name of the person he's looking for?"

"Carl Lucas, a black man."

"where is he?"

"I don't know. That guy escaped. He was so powerful that he injured many of us."

After saying this, Stokes spread his hands: "This is all I know. According to the agreement between me and Jin Bin, I have done everything that should be done. Next is your job, Mr. Fisk."

"clear."

David nodded: "I'll take care of this matter. For your injured brother, I'll take care of the medical expenses, and there's also a fee for thank you."

"very good."

Stokes nodded, his tone cold: "Goodbye."

Chapter 92 Luke Cage

After David and Wesley left, they turned to the neutral zone in Harlem.

Shaz, who was in the Paradise nightclub in Harlem at the moment, came from the High Gate Prison in Georgia, and was captured by the waterbell snake. The fate is self-evident.

If it hadn't been for David to come over, the waterbellied snake would have thrown him to the dogs as soon as he had tortured him.

Someone in every gang has a few fat and strong pets.

Waiting for this moment.

Harlem's neutral zone refers to a street not far from Harlem Paradise.

There is a "Papa's Barbershop" on the street, which is the "Property Management Department" of the Neutral District.

The owner of the barber shop is Henry Hunter, nicknamed "Daddy". He used to be a member of a gangster and had a good relationship with Cornell Stokes, a waterbell snake. He is respectful and respected by many people.

Therefore, Wilson invited him to work for him as the head of the neutral zone.

However, this time the conflict happened in the barber shop.

That's one of the reasons Wilson asked David to handle it.

This is not only a provocation, it is equivalent to smashing the house directly, it is like a slap on the face and spit.

In addition to Wilson, the owner of the barber shop, Henry Hunter, was also extremely angry.

As the person in charge of the neutral zone and the owner of the barber shop, he suffered even more humiliation than Wilson.

Soon, David and Wesley arrived at their destination.

At first glance, the entire barber shop was in a mess, the interior was in a mess, the glass was smashed, the tables and chairs were almost all deformed, and there was no place to sit.

Henry Hunter, in his fifties, stood at the door with his arms folded, his face gloomy, thinking about something, and he didn't notice the arrival of David and Wesley.

He wore a brown vintage bowler hat, and from the outside, he was a burly black man.

The traces of time on his body made him slightly fatter, with a little belly, but no one would deny his robustness.

There was still a deep gangster color in those slightly squinted eyes.

He's the kind of guy who knows it's not easy to provoke.

"Henry."

David took the initiative to speak and shouted, bringing the man in front of him back to his senses.

In the barber shop, a young, thin black man, Dante Chapman, heard the voice, rushed out of the barber shop quickly, and was slightly taken aback when he saw David and Wesley.

There are very few white people in this area.

Not to mention, this white man came in a wheelchair.

"who are you?"

Dante was a little nervous, with vigilance in his eyes, a gun in his hand, but he didn't aim it.

Wesley noticed that the gun hadn't even had the safety on.

Obviously, even if this kid is a gang member, he must be a rookie.

"Put down the gun, Dante, and get some beers, I'll treat my guests to a drink."

Henry glanced at Dante, then came to David and Wesley, nodded, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"We just went to Paradise Harlem and learned a little bit about the waterbellies."

David didn't move, and said bluntly: "I'm busy and I do things more directly, so skip the meaningless politeness-tell me, where is Carl Lucas?"

"I've never heard the name."

Hunter frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Dante noticed the strength in David's words, felt that the situation was not good, and quietly raised his gun.

Wesley wouldn't let a gun be pointed at him and David.

He drew his gun and fired, so fast that almost no one in the room could see his movements clearly.
