Chapter 112 Kingpin’s Minions

TL: Kyous

As the end of summer approached, so did the rainy season, especially in areas closeby to the sea.

A moment ago, it was still a cloudless sky yet at the moment, the moon had secretly hidden in some unknown places. Gradually, the sky was clouded up and the night was increasingly darkening. Most of the coast was blanketed by darkness.

All but except the Rowing Club!

As expected of the definition of luxury, endless street lights densely covered the roadside and illuminated the pathway beneath Leo and Bucky’s feet.

Currently, the duo had reached the front step of S’Neil Hall. Bucky stepped onto the front step and stomped his foot, “This stone slab paving looks great. The incisions on it, don’t tell me it’s made with gold?!”

Pak!

Regardless of whether Bucky did it intentionally or not, the first step was shattered by his stomp and left a crater behind.

“Don’t hate wealth… Aren’t you curious? Along the path, except those two guards, we didn’t see any Kingpin’s minions at all.”

Pak!

Leo was speechless as he witnessed Bucky shattering the second step with his foot again, “Don’t you feel nervous or worried?”

“What’s there to worry about?! Worry that several hundred men will rush at us when we open the door?” Bucky shattered the third step. “During my time, there are endless enemies swarming on the battlefield. Even as bullets rain, Steve and I dare to charge forward. Compared to this, this is way off.”

Leo, “…”

Bucky was experienced and knowledgeable. Nevertheless, entering a cave despite knowing a tiger resides in it, was Leo’s first time doing so. It was inevitable for him to feel some nervousness.

Leo absolutely refused to believe that Kingpin only ordered two of his polite minions to guard the entrance. However, where were his remaining subordinates?

“Leo, I’m opening the door now.”

While Leo was pondering, Bucky already left several craters behind on the steps. Arriving at the entrance of S’Neil Hall, Bucky was prepared to open the door.

Leo internalized, Rather than contemplating where Kingpin’s minion was hiding, might as well follow Bucky and have a look.

Moreover, Leo had yet to receive a signal from Matt and believed Peter and Matt hadn’t completed their operation. Therefore, he felt he and Bucky should enter the hall as soon as possible and cause chaos by creating an opportunity for the agility duo. When in reality, the duo was already retreating.

So, Leo hastened his footsteps. Arriving at the entrance, he nodded at Bucky.

Creak…

As the door made from unknown wooden material let out a soft noise, it was slowly pushed open by Bucky.

“What?!”

Just as the duo had a clear view of the hall, their brain suddenly halted immediately and was unable to comprehend what they were looking at.

The interior of S’Neil Hall was the definition of glorious. On the floor was a red carpet with a golden edge extended from the entrance to the staircase of the second floor. Two men in white tank tops and black trousers were standing a meter from both sides of the carpet. With a glance, sixty to seventy people were residing on the entire first floor.

These muscular men were bulkier than each other. Every single one of them possessed a handgun. Due to the men’s huge physiques, a space of several meters was left in the middle of the carpet.

If Leo and Bucky wanted to head to the second floor, they must pass through this group of meaty walls! What was Kingpin trying to achieve?!

Although Leo understood this was a formation placed by Kingpin to intimidate him…

Kingpin… Are you trying to make me laugh to my death, then inherit my El Tech Company?!

As expected of 90s mobs, their line of thoughts was certainly unique….

All of a sudden, a man walked along the carpet from the second floor. The man passed through the meaty wall and finally reached the first floor. His body was rather slim and short. Slipping through the crowd wasn’t an issue for him.

However, due to the man’s short height, he was blocked by the muscular men. It was until he reached not far away from Leo and Bucky the duo finally recognized the man. He was Kingpin’s butler, Nordril.

Nordril, in a white shirt, politely performed a greeting salute like some royalty. Coupled with the muscular men behind him as background, it was rather mismatched.

“Mr. Erwin, where’s El Gen-1’s blueprint?”

Leo was unaware of any kind of royalty or salute. But, Leo still remembered Bucky’s words, which was to act arrogantly. Raising his hand, he tapped at his skull and said indifferently, “Right here.”

Acting cool! It was a kind of arrogant act! Probably!

“Hmph! Pretentious!” Nordril had reversed his obedient attitude in front of Kingpin. Right now, he took out his attitude of a great butler and snickered coldly. Although he was acting toughly, his heart was in a mess.

According to the original script, this greeting should happen in the fourth floor’s pool room. By then, if Leo didn’t bring the chips technology and Bullseye over, Nordril could haughtily order his minion to kill one of the hostages to establish his dominance.

However, the two hostages had been rescued. It was due to Kingpin’s order that Nordril came down to the first floor. Even if Leo didn’t bring the chip technology, Nordril only dared to snicker and dared not act too overly.

Seeing Nordril snickering, Bucky acted even more arrogant. He strode forward and pointed at Nordril, “Stop bulls*tting, where’s the hostage? Where’s Kingpin?”

Although Nordril was being pointed at, he let out a sigh of relief internally. Bucky’s words just now revealed a fact, which was Leo and Bucky were unaware the hostages were rescued. Since that was the case, Nordril felt he could fool them upstairs. Then, the numerous minions on his side could surround the duo. Even if they possessed wings, it was difficult for them to escape.

With this thought, a confident smile found its way onto Nordril’s face. He answered with a question instead, “Where’s Bullseye?”

“Hm, over here!” Leo placed the black sack he was carrying down. With a kick, the black sack struggled as if humanoid stuff was inside it.

Nordril doubtfully stared at the black sack, DId Erwin not kill him after capturing him?

“I wish to see whether or not it’s Bullseye…”

“Does it matter whether or not it’s Bullseye? In the letter you sent, it emphasized ‘Please bring your own guns and ammunition when you come. You are responsible for your own life and death.’, right?” Bucky’s arrogance interrupted Nordril again and pulled out the handgun on his waist.

The muscular men behind Nordril were agitated and gradually pulled out their guns too. Waves of guns loading sound echoed.

Bucky’s abruptly pulling out the gun not only just surprised Kingpin’s minion, but Leo as well. When Bucky acted arrogantly, it was as if his personality flipped a switch. Leo felt Bucky might have unlocked some unimaginable attributes.

Nordril was standing the closest to Leo and Bucky. If a gunfight between his side and Leo’s occurred, he suspected he might be the first wave of sacrifices. In order to save his life, he believed he needed to fool Leo and Bucky upstairs first.

“Mr. Erwin, I believe it’s Bullseye inside the sack. So make your bodyguard calm down first.” Raising his hand, Nordril hinted at the minions behind to take it easy. Then, he continued, “Mr. Fisk and the ladies are upstairs. Please go upstairs. Mr. Fisk wishes to have a talk.”

The slim butler made a gesture, “Mr. Erwin and his bodyguard, please follow me.” Turning around, Nordril trudged along the red carpet, heading upstairs. His speed was neither fast nor slow, evidently, he wanted Leo and Bucky to follow him.

Excluding the spots occupied by the muscular men, the red carpet was half a meter wide. Moreover, every one of the men was holding a gun, pressuring the people walking in the middle.

This was only just the first floor. It was unknown if the weirdo Kingpin would prepare what was on the second floor. If the duo silently headed over, nothing might happen but it was evident they lost in terms of momentum.

Furthermore, the duo’s initial intention was to act arrogantly and cause messes. If they headed up just like that, it was contradictory to their intentions.

Therefore, Bucky sent a questioning gaze to Leo, signaling, “What now?”

Leo pondered for a bit and a flash of inspiration occurred. He answered softly, “Bucky, walk in front but don’t go too fast. I have a way to deal with this formation.”
