After walking out of Mary's house, Peter took out his mobile phone and quickly dialed the first number he remembered.

"Beep...beep..." The phone rang for a long time, and finally a voice came out.Peter was about to speak, but realized he had made a mistake.

"Hello, I'm Susan. I may be a little busy right now, so I can't answer your call. Please leave a message after the ding and I will get back to you as soon as possible."

It's just a message box.Peter pressed down the phone and started dialing again.After two attempts, he finally gave up and left a voice message.

The next Henry's number is also invalid, and the electronic sound coming from the phone is that the phone has been turned off or stopped.Feeling that his luck was really bad, Peter dialed the next number, and this time, someone answered.

"Hey, I'm Robert."

"Hello, I am Peter, Mary's classmate, do you still remember me?"

"Peter, Peter, who came to our performance more than two weeks ago, of course I remember you, but you are not with Mary...forget it, it doesn't matter. You were calling about Mary and Susan, right?"

"Mary, and Susan" Peter was a little surprised.

"Yeah, why, aren't you because of this?" Robert also sounded a little surprised.Peter reacted quickly and followed his words.

"No, no, no, I don't know much. Please tell me the whole thing."

"Actually, I don't know much. We haven't been in contact since yesterday, and I don't know what happened. Joe seems to know something, but the guy refuses to say anything. To be honest, if Mary hadn't disappeared too If so, I thought the two of them ran away for vacation by themselves." Robert complained on the phone, and the phone in Peter's hand had already left his ear.

Joe Moretti, Peter recalled the screams he heard in the casino that night.His heart felt a little heavier, and a terrible thought came to his mind.

If you are dealing with gangsters, the possibility of this happening will naturally increase a lot.After all, violence is their job, and the law is only dispensable to them.Peter wouldn't be surprised at all if Joe did it, after all, this kind of scene has been played in Hollywood for many years.Maybe it was an argument, maybe she saw something she shouldn't have seen, any little thing could become a trigger, and Mary could just be the innocent victim involved.

Even if you take a step back, this matter really has nothing to do with Joe and his family.As his girlfriend, Susan must have more clues about the two of them than others.

With a heavy heart, Peter asked for Joe's contact information from Robert, and then called, but no one answered.

Peter already has a rough plan for this operation, and the first thing to do is to prepare.

The first thing to prepare is naturally the weapons.Peter's fists are now quite powerful for people of his age, but for those professional thugs they can only be regarded as painless.And he didn't want to get a gun.First, he was not ready to kill yet.Second, the gun is too noisy and requires a period of practice.Peter didn't want to be one of those fools on the news who punched a hole in his foot.

The weapon he had in mind was a stun baton, and it wasn't difficult to get one.He found an advertisement for selling second-hand stun batons online at noon and received the goods an hour later.After using Force hints to fool him, Peter spent fifty dollars to get this little thing, which was only twenty centimeters long.Don't underestimate this guy, the electric shock it releases can easily electrocute an adult into coma.

Next, Peter went to buy an anti-theft wallet. This small thing has a locator inside, allowing the owner to find it.Although the practicality of this thing is limited in all aspects, this gadget still cost Peter a full $120, which was almost his entire month's pocket money without that part-time job.When he got home, he took out his utility knife and carefully dug out the locator in his wallet.

The initial preparations are almost complete.He put on a gray hoodie, which was enough to cover his face.After thinking for a while, he dug out a red mask in the drawer.He bought this for Halloween two years ago. It should look like a robot from a certain Transformers, but due to his various graffiti in the past, the original appearance is no longer visible.

After greeting Uncle Ben and Aunt May, Peter walked out of the door.This time he had to use suggestion again, but now that he had done it more, he seemed to feel less guilty.

What he needs next is a good opportunity.

Peter has been holding a bottle of water since six p.m.

He sat opposite the entrance of the casino, changing his position from time to time to investigate other places, keeping his eyes on every exit of the casino.And he waited outside for nearly two hours, and only after his whole body began to feel a little sore did he discover his target: Joe Moretti.He walked out of the casino door, his once easy-going face carrying a hint of anxiety and ferocity, and two bodyguards followed him closely.After exiting the casino gate, they quickly got into a black car.

Peter, who was following them, walked past the car and threw the locator in his pocket next to the car.With a thought, the locator floated up and stuck to the bottom of the car.When the car finally drove away, he quickly ran away, took out his bicycle from the corner of the alley, and quickly followed.

He decided from the beginning not to explore the casino.It was on someone else's territory. The security guards, waiters, and monitors were all things Peter could deal with with confidence.With such a short period of preparation, the chance of him rushing in and escaping unharmed was really slim.In addition, the flow of customers is quite large, so even if he succeeds by luck, there is no way to guarantee that he will not leave any clues.

His best way is naturally to attack halfway.

Rush hour was over, but the roads in downtown New York were still clogged, and Peter's bike kept up with them easily.After crossing the Brooklyn Bridge, Joe and his group gradually increased their speed and disappeared from Peter's sight after crossing two streets.

The locator came in handy, and Peter rode all the way in the direction shown.Thankfully, they stopped after driving for only a few minutes and appeared to have reached their destination, much to Peter's relief.If they really drove out of the city, he didn't know if his little legs could ride them.

Peter quickly found the car, which was parked on the sidewalk of a lane, and the owner didn't move too far away.Peter followed them and finally saw them entering a bar that looked quite shabby from the outside.

"Sister Margaret's School for Lost Children." Looking at the large tattered characters hanging above the bar door, Peter couldn't help but read out loud.It's an odd name for both a bar and a school.It was too abnormal for Qiao to drive here just to get drunk in such a small bar. Peter had always thought that he was the kind of person with more refined tastes.

Peter moved a little closer, but quickly stepped back.The big men lingering at the door didn't seem to be the kind of people who were easy to mess with, and Peter's eyes fell on him as soon as he got closer to them. Peter, who didn't want to show off his flaws, could only walk out of their sight as if nothing had happened.

We can only wait for him to come out.

Time moved slowly, and Peter could only wait patiently.The sky has already darkened and the temperature has dropped a lot.Even though the current season could still be autumn, the man wearing two layers of clothes still shivered from time to time. Just when he felt like he was about to catch a cold, Qiao and his two men walked out of the bar.They didn't look like they were drunk inside and then came out, they were quite energetic.

Peter once again looked at the more than 100 meters of road between Qiao and the three of them to the parking place, and couldn't help but cursed secretly.Although it was getting late, most shops had already closed and people had returned to their homes.But there are still some pedestrians on the street. If he takes action on this stretch of road, he may attract a lot of people's attention.

After a few seconds of thinking, Peter suddenly had a brilliant idea.He put on his mask, and the slightly childish face underneath the mask also smiled.

Breathing the night air of New York, Joe's heart was not as relaxed as he seemed on the surface.He still hasn't thought of a less bad solution to tonight's incident.Although he had just obtained a hole card at a high price, he had no idea about the specific size of the hole card and what effect it could have.

Hell, he even had the urge to just throw it away.But this idea was torn to pieces by himself not long after it was formed.

This despicable threat was not directed only at him.He is now the representative of the younger generation of the Moretti family. If he handles this matter badly, the streets of New York will laugh at his name. After the name of the Moretti family, they will say: "Moretti" What's there to be afraid of? They're a bunch of weaklings who can't even take care of their own women."

He thought for a moment and took out his mobile phone, but he still couldn't dial the number.Just when he was about to put his phone back, a person suddenly rushed past him like a strong wind, startling him.When he came to his senses, he realized that the cell phone in his hand had disappeared.His two bodyguards had already followed the thief closely.

"Damn it, thief" he shouted subconsciously, but felt ridiculous in his heart.

This thief actually stole something on his own head. Is he really brave or extremely stupid?
