Chapter 289 I Don't Mind
It's hard for Alvin to imagine how a person can fake a smile so formulaic, which reminds him of supermarket owner Robert McCall. Although he also laughs formulaically, he will never make you think he is a bad person.
This Raymond Reddington laughed like a fat poisonous snake, and one had the urge to strangle him!
Raymond spread his hands indifferently, then took out a cigar from his pocket and lit it for himself, as if he was the boss here.
Taking a puff on his cigar, Raymond smiled and said, "I seem to be the son of that bitch who came up with the idea, what should I do? Actually, I just want to deal with those politicians and let them give me some benefits.
But those idiots still don't know that they have been betrayed. I feel that standing on their side has no future and is very dangerous, so I came here. "
Alvin squinted and stared at Raymond, who was not only arrogant but also very rude. Fanning the smoke in front of him, Alvin said: "I don't like people like you, we definitely can't get along, if I were you, I would leave here quickly.
People who are so rude to me here generally end badly! "
Raymond didn't care about Alvin's threat, took a puff of his cigar, and the old god said, "Well, do you know what Braga, who paid for the speeding competition, wants to do? Do you know why he must put the competition on Hell's Kitchen? You~~"
Before Raymond finished speaking, Alvin grabbed his neck and stood up.
Alvin looked at Raymond who looked indifferent, and straightened his neck politely. He smiled and said, "I don't care what they're doing, it's none of my business, now you can get out! Mr. Raymond Reddington!"
After hearing Alvin's words, Raymond grabbed Alvin's hand that was holding his collar, trying to make him let go, but failed.
The black bodyguard Denby just wanted to go up to help, but was stopped by the supermarket owner Robert who didn't know when he came.
Robert smiled and showed his neat eight teeth, and it only took 2 seconds to bring down the tall Dunby, making him lie on the ground clutching his ribs and twitching in pain.
Looking at Raymond who was about to be carried by Alvin, Robert said with a smile: "Long time no see, Red Devil, you shouldn't come here. This place is not suitable for you!"
Raymond finally smiled sincerely when he saw Robert. He glanced at Alvin and said, "Can you put me down? I want to catch up with an old friend! It seems that my work is still not in place, I How could I miss you?" Raymond shook his head with an incredulous look on his face.
Alvin saw Robert's attitude, they must not be friends. Never mind though, what threat can a middle-aged bald man pose?
Letting go and throwing Raymond down, Alvin said to Robert, "Do you know each other?"
Robert said with a smile: "He used to be a member of the FBI, but he later engaged in some criminal brokerage business, and I chased him for a while. He is very cunning and can always find opportunities to escape!
I just don't know what he wants to do here? "
Raymond tidied up his collar, squinted his eyes at Robert, and said with a smile: "I am now a special advisor to the FBI. Since you know what I did in the past, you should know that where there is crime, there is crime." Have my business! My business target is very wide!
what is your name now Michael, Jason, Danny, Robert~
Oh~ Your name is Robert now, isn't retirement boring? So you're coming to Hell's Kitchen, it must be exciting! "
With a cold face, Robert stared at Raymond's smirk face, and said in a deep voice: "You are a trouble, and Hell's Kitchen doesn't need trouble now! You'd better get out of here."
Raymond shook his head, tilted his head, and said with a smile: "I'm here to solve the trouble for this Principal Alvin, those politicians are racking their brains to secretly revenge Hell's Kitchen, and this Principal Alvin is their primary goal.
Most of all, they want Hell's Kitchen to remain what it used to be, a dumping ground for the city's trash.
They want to make your past and present efforts come to naught.
Trust me, they can do it!
And I can solve these troubles for you, just charge a little price! "
Robert looked at Alvin and said with a serious expression: "You can't believe a word of his words, this is a poisonous snake. Most of the people who work with him will not end well!"
Alvin shook his head, smiled indifferently, and said, "I don't like this man, but I am a little interested in what he said, and I want to know why he must come to me?"
Speaking of which, Alvin turned to Raymond, and said in a deep voice: "Why did you come to me? Make it clear, and then we will chat about my troubles."
Raymond picked up his hat, walked to a dining table, put the hat away lovingly, raised his legs, smoked a cigar comfortably, and said: "I need a safe place, I think this place is very Appropriate. I've done some research and you've pretty much buried the entire Hand here. I've dealt with them and it's an amazing organization.
And now I have offended an organization called the Ten Rings Gang, they are happy to kill me, I don't want to live in hiding, so I came here!
You're in charge of keeping me safe, and I'm in charge of dealing with the big shots for you, and I'm good at that!
I can guarantee that Hell's Kitchen will run the way you envision it. I'm a pro on this! "
Alvin laughed dumbfounded, looked at Raymond like he was looking at a psychopath, and said contemptuously: "If it's just like this, you can get out!
What is the trajectory I envision? I don't fucking know it myself, how did you figure it out for me?
Those politicians want revenge on Hell's Kitchen? How do they get revenge? Could Hell's Kitchen be worse? What good does it do them to tear down Hell's Kitchen and leave them in shame forever?
What did Robert call you? Red Devil? I think your brain is very ordinary! "
Raymond looked at Alvin with his neck crooked, and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate those politicians. They only need to lower the rent of the apartments held by the Hell's Kitchen government and attract the poor from the outer districts to disturb the law and order here. Can make a gesture of compensating Hell's Kitchen.
Believe me, they have so many ways to make Hell's Kitchen a permanent dumping ground for the city's trash.
If you really want to change here! Believe me! you need me! I can solve your problem!
To prove my worth, let me tell you what the hell is that drug dealer Braga doing! He is now an unstable factor! "
Alvin does have a bit of interest in that generous, good guy, future prisoner, how selfless does it have to be to spend so much money in Hell's Kitchen just to find a few delivery guys? Of course, this has nothing to do with threats from Hell's Kitchen. If you can't agree, you can run away! It's just embarrassing!
Alvin called Robert to sit down, then looked at Raymond and said, "Actually, I don't care what that guy wants to do. That's what the police should worry about. But since you want to talk, then I'll listen.
You want to seek protection? No problem! As long as you prove that you are useful, I don't care about the Ten Commandments Gang or the Nine Commandments Gang. I only have one requirement here, not to cheat my own people.
If I find out you lied to me or did something else to upset me, I'll chop you up and flush you down the drain. I do what I say! "
Raymond froze for a moment. He thought he would have to spend more time talking, but he never thought that Alvin agreed so simply, that he didn't even seem to care so much about the nomination certificate he had prepared. Is this a little too easy?
Sucking his lips, Raymond asked cautiously: "Can I know what is making you upset? You make me feel very insecure!"
Alvin sneered and said: "It depends on my mood, I won't make any promises to you, the only thing I can guarantee is your safety on this street.
You have no choice, Mr. Raymond Reddington, you are now a wage earner who needs protection.
Now, show some respect to your boss. When the boss does not smoke cigars, wage earners cannot smoke cigars. This is one point that bothers me. "
Alvin was actually most interested in what Raymond said was the Ten Rings, the villain in Iron Man 3, who funded the Extremis project. They blew up Stark and blew him up! Isn't it just a coincidence that a guy who was hunted down by the Ten Rings gang suddenly appeared now!
Raymond looked at the self-willed Alvin with some dumbfounding. He asked himself that he had seriously investigated Alvin, but now he found that he still made a wrong judgment. This is a person who is occasionally unreasonable!
The threat of the Ten Rings is real, and it is not realistic for Raymond to stay in the FBI safe house forever, and it may not be really safe, but this is the best shelter he has chosen for himself.
It's just that I want to be a consultant or something, why did I become a wage earner when I came to Alvin?
Alvin took out a cigar, handed one to the gloating Robert, lit it, took a puff, and said to Raymond: "You can start to prove your worth. Let's start with that drug dealer named Jia!"
Don't play tricks, I just want to straighten your neck for you when I look at you, don't give me a reason to kill you. Otherwise, you won't be able to wait for that Ten Rings gang to come to trouble you! "
Raymond said with a bitter smile: "Braga is actually just a puppet. His behind-the-scenes boss Robert may have heard of it, James Morrow, who controls a small island country in the Caribbean to grow drugs for him.
Braga is considered a talent. He attracted people's attention to Hell's Kitchen through the Speed Race. In fact, he has been quietly laying drug sales channels in other districts.
Drug prices in New York are skyrocketing recently, and they are manipulating them.
The FBI, CIA, and New York police have all placed undercover agents in this speed race. The FBI and the New York police want to find the real Braga. The CIA wants to find James Morrow through Braga. "
After hearing this complicated relationship, Alvin said a little confused: "What does this have to do with me? I think that Braga man is not bad!"
Raymond sighed, glanced at Robert, who was smiling but not smiling, and the peaceful Hell's Kitchen outside the door, and said softly: "It has nothing to do with you! It's just that they want to use Hell's Kitchen. It seems that you don't mind !"
