Chapter 139 Killing (Thanks to the Leader Feiyan)
"Ha, the Bronx, they really know where to choose!" Santino sneered. The Bronx is the most mixed place in New York, and this environment also provides a guarantee for Sollozzo's safety.
Today, the underworld in the United States is somewhat similar to the political system in the United States. The gangs in each state control the forces in their respective territories, and outsiders are not allowed to interfere. If there is a business need to negotiate with each other, the old godfather traveled all over the United States and various families after defeating the Maranzano family. Negotiations, the establishment of the gang meeting, enjoys a huge reputation in the country, can be called the national hegemony.
Of the five major families in New York, the Corleone family is the most powerful. With New York as its foundation, its influence spreads all over the country. Even Tessio, who was separated from the Corleone family, almost monopolizes Brooklyn.
The Basini family is slightly less powerful, mainly in Manhattan and Staten Island, and their influence is also spread all over the country, but they are not as good as the Corleone family. They always want to pull the Corleone family from the throne of the underworld overlord in the United States. , At the same time, they also have a good influence in their hometown of Sicily. In the movie, they used Sicilian forces to buy the bodyguards sent by Tommasino to protect Mike, and killed Mike's wife Apollonia.
The Tattaglia family is mainly active in Manhattan and the Bronx, the Strazzi family is mainly active in New Jersey, New York is only active in Brooklyn and the Bronx, and the Cuneo family is the weakest, only in the Bronx Activity.
It can almost be said that the five major families in New York have power distribution in the Bronx, plus those small forces attached to them, the Bronx is extremely chaotic. Once something happens, no one can completely control it, which is suitable for Sollozzo to retreat.
"I will arrange for someone to hide the gun. I have been to this restaurant. They use an old-fashioned bathroom. At that time, I will ask people to hide the gun behind the toilet tank and stick it with tape." Klemansha is in charge of this Action, he showed Shen Long the gun he had prepared a long time ago, "The handle and the trigger are wrapped with special tape, which will not leave fingerprints. After shooting, you immediately hang down your hands naturally, let the gun fall to the ground, and then speed up." Step...but not run, get out of this place quickly."
"I understand." If you are caught with a gun, you will get all the stolen goods, but if you don't have a gun, you will have a lot of room to move around, and you can escape responsibility in court; And the method of identifying the prisoner through fingerprints was created by Edgar Hoover, even if there is no tape, Shen Long is not worried.
"But what should that policeman do? Kill him too?" Even Santino, faced with the situation of shooting and killing a New York captain policeman, was a little hesitant to make up his mind.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Shen Long said firmly.
"There is a freighter bound for Sicily at night, and I can let you aboard. If you kill that policeman, you'd better hide for a year or two and come back." This kind of thing like running away is not only in Xiangjiang, it is in the United States. Bian is also popular, the Corleone family started by smuggling booze,
There is no shortage of escape channels at all.
"Let's prepare first." Shen Long said vaguely, Tessio is still here, he didn't want to fully reveal his plan, "If necessary, I will rush to the ship."
Then everyone discussed the details, such as who was sent to hide the gun, who was to meet Shen Long, and who was responsible for sending him to the boat, etc. In the evening, Sollozzo called and told Shen Long who was going to board the car. place, let him wait there.
Shen Long went to wait at the gate of the Jack Dempsey Hotel on Broadway as scheduled. At five past eight in the evening, a car stopped in front of him on time. Sollozzo waved him in the car, and he and Mike Robles sat in the back , the driver was an expert sent by the Tataglia family, Shen Long got into the car and sat in the co-pilot.
Sollozzo reached out his hand from behind and shook hands with Shen Long, "Fredo, I'm glad you can come, I hope we can solve all the problems, the current situation is simply too bad, things have developed It's beyond my expectation, and it's not good for you or me if something like this happens."
Shen Long could feel that there were thick calluses on his tiger's mouth and several joints. From the position of these calluses, he could tell that Sollozzo was really good at playing with knives, just like the rumors said, "I also hope that we can use the knife tonight The matter is settled, and I don't want Vito to be harassed any more."
"He won't be harassed." Sollozzo said earnestly. He didn't mean to replace the Corleone family as the overlord of New York. Talk about it, don't be like Santino, he's too impulsive."
Mike Robles leaned forward and patted Shen Long's shoulder, "Sorry, I have to search my lower body first."
Shen Long complied. Mike Robles knew in advance that Shen Long was not carrying a weapon, so he searched carefully and professionally. Sollozzo watched without blinking during the whole process.
The driver turned a few beautiful turns on the road, making sure that no one was following him, and then arrived at the entrance of the Louis Hotel in the Bronx. The three of Shen Long came inside, found a table in the lobby and sat down. After ordering, McRobs Si focused on the food, while Shen Long and Sollozzo talked in Italian with a Sicilian accent.
"I respect the old godfather very much. The previous problems were all business matters. Unfortunately, he is old. Santino's behavior cannot be compared with the godfather. Bandandu; and all the families in New York are standing behind me, and the Tataglia family is even partnering with me. Once the fight continues, the whole of New York will be against you." Sollozzo finally said If he has connections with other families.
After discussing the details of the cooperation for a while, as if he was really interested in this transaction, after Sollozzo was relieved a little, Shen Long proposed to go to the bathroom.
Sollozzo proposed a body search, which made Mike Robles very dissatisfied. Doesn't this doubt his professional ability? But Sollozzo persisted.
After searching, Shen Long entered the bathroom, took out the pistol hidden there from behind the water tank, urinated, and returned to the hall.
"What you did made me want to go to the bathroom too. Keep talking, and I'll come out right away." McRobbs muttered, walked past Shen Long, and entered the bathroom.
"Mr. Sollozzo, you made a mistake. The Corleone family never negotiates with people who have hurt their own family members!" Shen Long said coldly.
Sollozzo was about to jump up from his chair when he heard the news, but it was already too late. Shen Long stretched out his left hand like lightning, pressed him firmly, then drew out a pistol with his right hand and pointed it at his temple, "Now, go to hell Bar!"
"Bang! Bang!" Sollozzo's head exploded like a watermelon.
