Chapter 5: Pre-war negotiations

Many years ago, "Wishbone" was just a southern-style restaurant selling diced cheese, but no one could have expected that, in the 22nd century, on the North American continent, Wishbone became synonymous with luxury hotel chains.
芝加哥 In Chicago, there are two branches of the wishbone, in the Loop and Michigan Avenue respectively, which are popular with financial oligarchs and aristocrats in the city.
On this day, in the luxurious box of the wishbone restaurant in the Loop district, the two bosses of the Lucches family and the Genovese family are going to get together for a meal. Of course, they are not going to the banquet alone. Several experienced gunmen and a bodyguard are necessary for the gangsters to negotiate. If you go out armed without a brother, you will be embarrassed to say hello to your colleagues.
德 The idea of ​​this meal was proposed by DeWitt. He asked Joseph to send someone with an identity to bring Sonny to the table with him, and communicate with the other party on the black night of Valentine's Day. After hearing a single plan from DeWitt, Joseph agreed and sent the second boss of the Lucches family, his cousin Tommy Galliano, as a negotiator.
Joseph seemed very confident in DeWitt's plan. He even secretly instructed Tommy to talk less in the negotiations and let DeWitt talk to the other party. As for Sonny, Joseph only said one thing to him: "My dear nephew, my request to you for this dinner is very simple, keep your mouth shut!"
As for the Genovese family, in order to show their solemnity, Frank Genovese, as the second boss, was bound to prepare to go to the banquet. They were actually quite surprised. According to common sense, the relationship between Sonny and Tony is similar. After such a thing happened, the Lucches family should stay on their feet and try their best to keep things clear. But I didn't expect the other party to make a sudden call to the head office (the surface of the Janowice family has many legal industries) and said that they would invite your boss to dinner. Did Joseph's old fox finally decide to annihilate his relatives and hand over Sonny to calm the matter?
This is not impossible, but it is more likely that the banquet is more ferocious and less fortunate.
Frank has always been suspicious. People born in this era, no matter how educated, what kind of beliefs are instilled, will understand that when you really begin to understand the world and history, those traditions and beliefs are simply unreliable. Pure violence can shatter everything. Even religion is destroyed by the empire. What are the Mafia people stuck to?
In addition to the men who accompanied him, Frank also buried many gunmen in the surroundings of the hotel, ready to go to war at any time.
The results of victory will be recorded in history. As for the means, leave the loser to struggle. The death of Tony and Joe is just the last straw that crushed the camel. Tonight, it may well be the beginning of a war. The two most powerful families in Chicago may finally have a victory.
Uh ...
七 At seven o'clock on February 17th.
Several long versions of Lincoln were heading towards the wishbone hotel, and in the car were the big brothers of the Lucches family and their accompanying men.
In one of the cars, there were two informal members of the family, the so-called partners of the Mafia.
DeWitt and Mike are also dressed today, but Mike's face is not good-looking, in fact he did not want to come, but DeWitt found a very good reason, you have the opportunity to hack a large number of senior members of the Janowice family Information, why not come?
Mike had a pale face, and was sweating all over his face at this time: "You know, I keep showing up, and the driver suddenly turned back and shot us with a muffler, or the scene of a luxury car suddenly exploding."
"You watch too many movies." DeWitt immediately replied.
"I don't quite understand what you want to do tonight," Mike said.
"Aren't you smart? Guess what," DeWitt said.
Mike's mouth twitched: "Three situations I can think of, one is that you buckle the on Sonny's head and push him out to the Genovese family and let them deal with it. This is considered the best policy. Second, you admit that everything was done by yourself, narrate the process of eating black, apologize, return the money to others, and ask the other party to spare you your life in the face of the Lucches family. Strategy, whether you can survive or not depends on the reaction of the other party. Third, it is naturally the next strategy, and it is also because I do not know you well, and I expect that you will do things, such as disdainfully treating the Janowice family. The second boss said, "I did it. You idiots, I won't pay the money. Today, I want you to know. I'll see the grandfather and recognize it, and go around."
"Ha ha ha ..." DeWitt laughed: "Your Chinese is very good, I thought you were only born in North America."
"Nonsense ... Schools all over the world teach Chinese and English, how can I say that I am a high-level student, proficient in two languages ​​is the minimum. Besides, I just think that in such a time, you can more vividly express your identity in Chinese ..." Mike said: "Don't pull the ball, can you tell me in advance which way you plan to take. Although I think any of these three situations is likely to end in gun battle and massacre, but at least I hope Be mentally prepared. "
DeWitt said, "What can I tell you?"
Mike: "How? You get under the table faster, how do you think?"
DeWitt said: "The method is good, but I think that after the situation escalates, grenades and other things may join the battle, and then you won't be able to drill anywhere."
Mike laughed twice: "Well said, how do you see this, before the conflict escalates, you hint that I leave the seat to go to the toilet for a long time."
DeWitt replied very simply: "No way."
The two chatted, the car was stopped, and a hotel waiter opened the door of the back seat: "Welcome to the wishbone hotel, gentlemen, I wish you a good evening."
Uh ...
The atmosphere in the box was weird. In the past, the godfathers in the city negotiated. Although they sometimes went to hotels, they usually chat in cigars in spacious rooms.
But tonight, four people were seated on a delicate square table. The Luches family had Tommy Galliano and DeWitt, and the Genovese family was Frank Genovese and him. Confidant bodyguard, Gypsy Oni. Everyone else, including Sanny, who was already full of anger, always followed his beaters Gawa, and Mike, all standing around and watching.
包 The box wasn't that big at all. The two gangs had to stand apart and warn each other. Four of them had to eat in such a hot and tense environment. This scene seemed quite funny.
"It's a good idea to ask dozens to come out for dinner together, isn't it? It's said that Hong Kong gangsters did this at the end of the twentieth century, but they would not go to high-end hotels, and the weapons they carried were all cold weapons." Mike was right Gawa said beside him, his tone seemed to be complaining and joking.
Rong Gawa stared with that fierce look: "Do you want to be torn to pieces by your own people?"
Mike had to shrink his neck and shut his mouth. It seemed that he and the rude man could not find any common language.
The waiter's psychological quality is very good. When he came in to serve, he calmly calmed down and reported the name of the dish with a smile. What should I do? The hand of pouring wine is as stable as Mount Tai. I can't forget to ask: "What else Need service? Sir. "
After the elder brother was expended, DeWitt said, "What's wrong, gentlemen? Why not move the knife and fork? Isn't it appetizing?"
Frank held his face, and when Devitt was air, he said to Tommy, "Who is this kid?"
Tommy replied bluntly; "Joseph said he was an adviser."
句话 This sentence is as flat as a thunderstorm. Except for a few people who knew beforehand, the mafia people in the whole room made a lot of commotion.
Frank's face only changed slightly, and soon he calmed down: "Are you kidding me?"
DeWitt stepped in again: "Hey, gentlemen, do you know that it costs 40 yuan to order a milkshake here? That's milk and ice cream. Without the addition of wine, the sliced ​​fruit will sell for 4 Ten yuan, and you are indifferent to the dishes in front of you, are you kidding me? "
Frank couldn't bear it, turned to DeWitt and said, "If your boy instructs me how to eat, I will unscrew your head and hollow out a milkshake for forty dollars a cup."
DeWitt said: "That's right, this is the attitude that should be negotiated. Then, let me tell you all the issues you are interested in at once. First of all, my mother-in-law doesn't care whether you believe it or not. Anyway, I am a consultant. Secondly, on the evening of the 14th, your money is now with me, and I am not ready to return it to you. In the end, all your men are finished, and I am responsible for this. You still have What do you want to know? "
"Hehehehe ..." Frank laughed suddenly, laughing: "Tommy, do you have anything to say?"
Tommy is calm: "He is now our partner, that's what I want to say."
"I think you know exactly what it means." Frank said.
Tommy replied: "Of course I know, it's you who don't know the situation. You don't seem to understand your situation at the moment."
Frank sneered: "Lup District is not your place, old friend, are you so sure that only you ambush in the hotel?"
DeWitt said: "Your confidence comes from the twelve gunmen you arranged in the two rooms at the end of the corridor in advance, and a total of fifty-five people ambush in the parking lot and two neighborhoods."
怔 Frank's mind was surprised that it wasn't that the other party knew about the ambush, but that DeWitt could tell such a precise number. Did he have a traitor around him? This terrible hypothesis made Frank, who did not believe anyone, almost crazy, his face was instantly covered with haze, staring at DeWitt, "You know it very concretely."
DeWitt casually pointed at Mike behind his fork: "The four eyes hacked your cell phone on the way, I know everything, you see, he now holds his own Pocket computers are doing something. "
Suddenly, everyone in the room turned their attention to Mike. He had looked out of place with the others in the room. He was just like a college student playing with a mobile phone and went to the wrong studio. .
Mike really wanted to go forward at the moment and killed Dewitt from behind, but he just thought about it. The reality was that he grinned twice, contacted Frank's eyes, and waved hello.
DeWitt continued: "Mr. Genovese, speaking of this, I guess you are about to lift the table. This is a situation that everyone can foresee, so I suggest you take it easy before you listen to me. Some of the more substantive content, that is, the point that I will talk to you today. "
"Oh? What else are you going to say?‘ Mr. Advisor '.
When he said the word consultant, he was obviously ridiculous.
"First of all, I want to declare that I have no resentment with the Genovese family, and my intention is not to destroy you. Of course, according to the current planned process, destroying you is inevitable. If you or your men today If anyone can go back alive, you might as well explain to Mr. Samuel Genovese directly that you are only an experiment, and I have no intention of targeting you. "
Even Frank wanted to punch him in the face, but Devitt said easily: "Anyway, after tonight, Lucches and Genovese are at war, I can be sure, you guys Tonight will be a heavy loss, and it will fall apart in a very short period of time. But Genovese is a huge group. You still have a lot of serious business and many industries under your name. These are completely available resources. Imagine if everyone They are all dead, then these properties will soon be swallowed up by the empire, and then I will be difficult to deal with, so I can now give you a chance, Frank. "Devitt ate up the last bite of his plate "Now, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is just now. You still have the opportunity to accept unconditional surrender on behalf of your brother."
Frank seemed to be so angry that he smiled angrily: "Tommy, haha ​​... Where is this kid Joseph came from, is he a comedian? Are you crazy? Hahaha." He suddenly lifted To the table: "You killed our people, robbed our money, provoked war, and then we surrendered before we paid any price?" He said, just pulling back while pulling out guns and bodyguards. Ony moved faster than Frank. He had raised his gun flat and aimed Tommy Galliano's brows.
"It seems the answer is 'No'." DeWitt shrugged, not minding being pointed at with a gun, and he pressed a remote control button long hidden in his cuff.
For only a second, the entire hotel fell into darkness, the crackling sounds of utensils flickering in the darkness. Every piece of glass in the hotel, whether it is a lamp, wine bottle, mirror, window, or chandelier, all cracked and shattered at the same time, and the people in the hotel fell to the ground as if they were hit by some invisible shock wave. Many people have congested eyes, and in some severe cases, there is more blood in the nostrils.
But everyone in the Lucches family stood intact, everyone took out the liquid lighting gun prepared in advance, and the dark box lit up many blue-cyan lights again.
The hands of the Genovese family fell to the ground without exception. Although some of them could still move, their vision was blurred, they could not find a sense of balance at all, and their heads were buzzing. They did not stand up to resist at all. Maybe.
哦 "Oh? That Ouni, is he really capable ..." Devitt murmured to himself, he had scanned the corners of the box with a very fast speed, only Frank and Ouni were missing.
