Chapter 106 He is one of his own
Happy Zone Nightclub, as the top private place in Chicago, the sound insulation of the box can be said to be very good. There were gunshots and screams inside, and there was no disturbance from the outside.
It wasn't until a few hours later that it returned to normal, but the ragged Vito and another bodyguard escorted Wilfred Malik out of the box as if nothing had happened.
After sending Malik away, the two Vitos, who had changed their clothes, stood guard outside the private room again.
A few minutes later, Josie, who looked normal, also came out of the box, and the group officially left.
Afterwards, the woman named Wilma who brought Josie to the box before brought a group of people into the box, and began to clean up the box with a calm face.
At this time, there was nothing else in the box except for some marks that looked like they were scratched by wild animals and a few puddles of blood.
A few cloth girls knew something they shouldn't know, so naturally they had to be sent to Yuri.
The four mutilated corpses were no exception.
Alas, I have to say, compared to Dragon Ma and Yuri who dominate their respective worlds, Josie is still the worst.
To do something out of line, you have to be careful.
It is now approaching the end of the year, and in two months, a new beacon of the plane will be ushered in. I don't know what kind of world and what kind of people I will encounter by then.
Josie is looking forward to it.
When I got home, it was already late at night, and Margot hadn’t slept yet. Instead, she was sitting by the cradle in the specially built baby room next to the master bedroom, watching the two children giggle, while Francesca was watching over her third mother. Yawn straight up.
So it’s really a three-year-old pregnancy?
"Why aren't you asleep?" Josie squeezed to Margot's side, looking at the two little dolls in the cradle that had already turned pink and tender, and said with a smile.
"...Go take a shower, what are you doing? The smell of rust is so strong on your body!" Unexpectedly, as soon as Josie approached, Margot frowned.
Hearing Margot's words, Josie couldn't help being slightly taken aback.
Rust smell?
In the next second, Josie realized that it wasn't the smell of rust, but the smell of blood.
Although he had already washed it a little while in the nightclub, after all, he stayed in the **** box for several hours, and Margot was still in the postpartum recovery period and was relatively sensitive, so it was easy to smell the smell.
Immediately without hesitation, she went out of the baby room to take a bath.
No way, don't look at Josie's majesty outside, but since the two little ones were born at home, Margot's maternal love has almost exploded, and all her energy has been devoted to the children, which has caused Josie's position in the family linear decrease.
……………
After a few days.
New York.
Competitive Social Club!
Although the external business cards of this nine-member council are spread all over the United States, most of them actually appear as high-end entertainment venues similar to the Happy Zone nightclub, and the ones with the official club brand are actually New York and Los Angeles. The first and second largest cities.
In the dim conference hall, seven people in suits and leather shoes sat around a large round table one by one.
Obviously, although after Wilfred's efforts in the past ten years, the Malik family has returned to the core circle of Hydra, but there is still a long way to go if they want to be on an equal footing with other snake heads.
This has nothing to do with age, because among the seven people in front of him, Calvin Chadwick from the Atherdan Group and Hugh Jones from the Rockson Group are actually about the same age as Wilfred.
But the two leisurely occupied two of the existing seven seats, and they had a very important say.
And this is only because the strength of the Estherdan Group and the Roxon Group far surpasses the declining Malik Family.
The various tastes in it, only Wilfred himself knows.
"Wilfred, tell me about your contact with Josie Kahn!" The old man sitting in the first seat looked at Wilfred Malick and asked.
The name of the old man is Thomas Gloucester, the leader of Hydra with the highest voice in the contemporary era, a Wall Street financial giant, and the helm of the First Citigroup consortium.
The first Citigroup consortium is the top consortium in the United States with Citibank as its core, and Citibank is the oldest bank on Wall Street.
In the world of Josie’s previous life, the First Citigroup consortium declined in the 1930s due to the Great Depression, and was controlled by the Rockefeller and Morgan consortia until the 1950s.
However, in this world, the First Citibank consortium, under the control of the Council of Nine, cooperated with Roxon Energy Group and Etherdan Energy Group, and became the behind-the-scenes and biggest winner of the Great Depression in the 1930s.
On the contrary, Rockefeller and Morgan were hit hard during the Great Depression and have become marginal consortiums... The most notable point is that the Rockefeller Center in this world is not called Rockefeller Center, but Roxon Center!
That is to say, in this world, the first Citigroup consortium replaced the original position of the Morgan consortium, and Roxon Energy Group replaced the status of the Rockefeller consortium.
The Etherdan Group is the core of the California consortium.
As for the Malik family, the prototype in Josie’s original world was the Mellon family—in that world, the Mellon family also began to decline during the Great Depression, and the control of the consortium gradually fell into the control of other families and companies.
That is to say, if Malik, who has not regained the right to speak in the consortium, is included, there are four of the top ten American consortiums in the world, and the nine-member council, and they are still the most powerful four.
It's no wonder why Josie values the Council of Nine so much.
What the **** is the difference between controlling half of the United States as long as you have the right to speak in the Council of Nine?
In comparison, the remaining strengths of the council are weaker.
One is newspaper tycoon Mortimer Hayez, who controls half of the media industry in New York and Los Angeles.
The remaining two are in politics.
In contrast, the ones who stretch the hips the most are actually the von Strucker family.
Sterak in the comics, like the Red Skull, is a red man under Mustache, and there is also a Zemo.
But in this world that is suspected to be based on the movie universe, although the von Strucker family has also been brilliant, it is only a powerful family in Germany during World War I.
During World War II, because of the failure of the power struggle with Mustache and Schmidt, he was directly kicked out of Europe. After running to the United States, he became a vassal of the Roxon Group.
It was not until he returned to Europe after the end of World War II and took over the remnants of the Red Skull's defeat that he became a little supportive, and then in the era of the Avengers, he mastered a complete collection—the one who was killed by Ultron in the movie is the contemporary Si Son of Thomas von Strucker, head of the Strucker family.
But it can also be seen from the movie that at that time, Strack's status was also below that of Gideon Malik and Alexander Pierce.
However, in this world, it may be a bit difficult for the Sterak family to stand up again.
Because of the Hydra power in Europe, it has been preconceived by Josie, and it is almost annexed.
"Yes, leader, I can fully confirm that Josie Kahn is one of us!" Facing inquiries from several leaders of the council, Wilfred replied with a straight face.
