Chapter 48 People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong (recommendation ticket requested)

“No! Riva!”

With a roar cry in his sleep, Luke Cage suddenly woke up from his nightmare!

“Roar… Roar…”

Sitting on the bed, Roar sucked and swiped, only to find that his forehead was covered with sweat.

Looking at the rays of sunlight projected on the floor through the curtains, he realized that the time had come to the next morning…

However, his head is full, and it is still a clear picture of a nightmare.

In the dream, he saw his deceased wife-Riva Connors.

She was lying on the road with blood on her face and stretched out her right hand to the sky, as if trying to catch something, her face was full of sadness and despair.

At the same time, the same sentence is still being repeated in the mouth:

“Carl, save me, I don’t want to die yet…”

No matter how he shouted Roar, no matter how he tried to approach, he couldn’t hold his wife’s hand.

He can only watch her, and spend the last minute of his life in front of him like this…

Even after waking up, the strong feeling of powerlessness still attacked his body, making him unable to think.

Shaking his head and temporarily dispelling the nightmare from his mind, Luke Cage (Carl Lucas) lifted the quilt and walked into the bathroom naked.

A new day is here…

One hour later.

Luke Cage, who had just returned from an early morning run, met a few uninvited guests in front of his apartment…

In front of the always quiet apartment, there were five or six big guys standing early in the morning, and they didn’t look like nasty guys.

Among them, a bearded man in a suit surrounded by a few tattooed guys, his eyes lit up when he saw Luke Cage, he squeezed out the cigar in his hand, and used a smoky voice with a thick Italian accent. , Asked: “Luke Cage?”

Luke Cage frowned when he heard his name calling him, and looked up at him, trying to recognize him.

However, judging from the face he had never seen before, it was clear that the other party was not on his “friend” list.

If you are not a friend, but you know your name, then there is only one possibility left: the one who came is not good!

“Who are you?”

“Oh, I haven’t introduced myself yet… My name is Marino. “Dalito” asked me to come…”

Delito? !

This name, even Luke Cage, who moved here only half a year ago, is slightly heard.

As far as he knows, there are several large underground gangs in Los Angeles. Among them, the Italian Mafia, headed by “Dalito”, is an existence that is so famous that it doesn’t even bother with it.

Washing powder, marijuana, arms, human trafficking, underground black fist…

They have to intervene in all profitable transactions.

They most like to threaten the victim’s family and force the victim to submit, so as to help them do all kinds of bad things that violate the law…

Knowing who he is facing, Luke Cage also had a twelve-point spirit in his heart, “Is there anything to do with me?”

“Oh, this is not a good place to talk about things. Wouldn’t you invite us in and sit down?” The bearded man in a suit opened his hands, his tone of voice a little threatening.

Seeing the pistol inadvertently on the opponent’s waist, he weighed it in his mind a little, and Luke Cage said, “Come in.”

After speaking, he took out the key, opened the door of the apartment, and walked in on his own.

These tattooed guys also followed behind and entered the apartment together.

After a few minutes…

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, the bearded man finally lost his patience and continued to make false claims, but directly expressed his purpose for coming today:

“Dalito asked me to tell you that he wants you to fight the Rhino.”

Rhino is also another famous black boxer in Los Angeles.

Although his record is not as perverted as Luke Cage, he is the only boxer who is considered by the black boxing world to defeat Luke Cage…

Sitting on the opposite sofa, Luke Cage looked up at the other person, and then said in a low voice, “It’s not for me to decide who to fight. You should go to Adam.”

Da Huo seems to have expected this answer.

I saw his body leaning forward slightly, trying to use his fat body to create a sense of oppression.

However, in Luke Cage’s view, he is just a serious, ordinary fat man…

“Definitely, we will go… believe me, he will definitely agree.”

The other party’s confident tone made Luke Cage frown, as if he realized something, and asked aloud: “Then come and find me, what do you want from me?”

“Look, the problem is here…”

The beard spread his hands and said with an indifferent look, “I need you to lose this game!”

Until this moment, Luke Cage finally understood the intention of the other party’s sudden visit: let him fight fake punches in the next match!

Speaking of it, it was not without a reason why the other party came to him.

Since he came to Los Angeles and made his name in the “Diamond Heart” club, the entire underground black boxing world has known that there is an invincible black man named “Diamond” in the east of Los Angeles.

People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and many desperadoes who tried to defeat him and achieve fame in one fell swoop have challenged him.

However, Luke Cage used a wave of five-game winning streak with no injury KOs to frighten these guys who are desperate for fame.

Formally because of this, the title “Diamond” has become even more resounding.

“Dalito”, who saw the opportunity to make a fortune from it, thought, if this invincible guy loses in the duel with the “Rhino”, then he can make a fortune from the trader!

As for why Luke Cage was allowed to lose, but not “Rhino”?

The reason is simple: because the “rhino” is his person.

“How about? In return, you can get 10% of the profit, and you can also become a signed boxer under Dalito, go to other places to participate in boxing matches, and enjoy countless pros and cons and countless women. , All beckoning to you.”

“Such conditions, I believe, no one will refuse…”

Before the chattering beard could finish boasting, Luke Cage interrupted him directly: “I refuse!”

The scene fell into an inexplicable silence.

The beard who didn’t expect Luke Cage to refuse, was instantly slapped in the face!



The whole face, first from white to black, and finally, like a drunk who drank too much, flushed…

boom!

I saw him slap the table sharply and shouted:

“Are you and he playing with me?!”
