American Comics Reward Order

Chapter 45 Escrow Agreement

"Mr. Scott, when you asked me to come here, do you mean that Cross has been dealt with... or is it still unsolved?"

Late at night, in the western suburbs of New York, not far from the mutual aid association’s headquarters.

Sloan received a call from Laika and came out to meet.

Laika smiled softly: "I wonder, do I still have the nerve to come see you?"

After that, he kicked the trunk of the car.

Cross was lying twisted inside... no... paralyzed inside!

Lifeless…

Anyone could tell with just one look that he was dead.

But Sloan was extremely wary of Cross and took out his gun first without going over to check.

'Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang! '

Seven blood lines slowly flowed out from the seven new blood holes in Cross's body...

The blood was dark red, indicating that Cross had been dead for some time.

Sloan hit the body.

"Are you relieved?" Laika pouted, "Look at what you have done to my car..."

"I'll buy you a new one."

Sloan breathed a long sigh of relief, as if something he had been holding in his stomach for a long time finally burst out of his body, and he felt relaxed...

Old people, there's nothing you can do about it.

Seeing him like that, Laika almost couldn't hold back her laughter several times.

The power of 'Kubi' (Level A):

The character's telekinesis ability "God's left hand and the devil's right hand" can be used.

Touch an object with your left hand, and the exact same object can be copied with your right hand. After 24 hours, the copy disappears!

Laika has done experiments before, and this ability can replicate living things down to every pore.

It's just a copied living creature, not to mention conscious, without even a heartbeat.

That is, a corpse that can exist for 24 hours.

Hey!

I’m not afraid that you won’t be fooled.

"Where's Wesley?"

Sloan asked next.

"I also killed him." Laika said calmly, "This must be your plan too, right?"

"Of course." Sloan smiled crookedly, "Mr. Scott, we will become a good partner."

"I agree."

In fact, Cross, Wesley, and Firefox casually walked into the mutual aid club as soon as Sloan left.

Cross also held a small rag with Sloan's name on it.

I'm afraid I'm already talking to other scholars now...

So, keep stalling!

"Do you know why I didn't just bring Cross back to the mutual aid club to show off, but brought him here?" Laika asked.

Sloan did have this doubt.

"why?"

"Because I want to leave this honor to you."

Laika patted Sloan on the shoulder, "Just think of it as a greeting to welcome you into the council."

"Thank you." Old Fox Sloan is naturally not so easy to coax, "But if you give me this great gift, you must repay it, right?"

"Technically no, I just want to make sure you abide by our agreement."

Laika took out a large stack of documents from the driver's seat.

Too thick!So much so that it can’t be stuffed into the back…

Sloan frowned: "What is this?"

"Asset Custody Agreement."

Laika said nonchalantly: "Generally speaking, you entrust Lawyer Laika Scott of Pearson Spector Law Firm to handle a portion of the assets in your name."

Whether it is domestic assets or foreign offshore accounts!

It took Louis five hours to make this for Laika, covering his little heart.

Sloan's face suddenly turned cold.

"Our agreement is to give you [-]%."

"Yes, it is stated in the agreement that I only have the right to deal with [-]% of your assets."

The most eye-catching clause on the front page of Laika Diandian’s document is, “But I want to make sure I can get this [-]%.”

Sloan sneered inwardly.

There is probably a trap in this contract.

But it doesn't matter.

Laika is going to die sooner or later anyway!

Sign the contract or not, the result is the same.

But you still have to pretend to look, otherwise you will appear too unconcerned.

"It's such an important contract. If you don't mind if I just take a quick look at it."

"Of course you have to watch it carefully, but don't take it too seriously. It's so late after all."

Laika pretended to urge.

In fact, I wish Sloan would see him tomorrow morning.

At least we have to see Cross Wesley, the Firefox, bring out all the members of the Mutual Aid Association with guns to punch holes in him.

But before that, Sloan had better not discover that among the more than 40 additional clauses in small print, there is this one:

If Party A dies, all the assets in his name will be donated to Party B.

Sigh, my head hurts when I think about paying inheritance tax.

Sloan is old and has poor eyesight. He sheds tears when reading documents in front of the car lights.

I picked up the pen several times and wanted to sign it, but after hesitating for a while, I put the pen down again and continued to pretend to read.

How could he know that he was killing himself by doing all the acting?

In the middle of the night, there are no street lights, so it would not be such a torture for presbyopia...

Laika enjoyed it very much.

Be content, at least now you are alive.

Just when I was guessing the size of Sloan’s assets...

suddenly!

As if a basin of ice water was poured over his head, Laika felt that a pair of cold eyes were staring at him from behind.

Laika has no five senses beyond ordinary people, so the awesome one is the master of sight!

So awesome that Laika actually dared not look back...

but!

The more scared you are, the more you have to look back!

Pretending to yawn, Laika stretched and turned around...

Immediately he saw a slim figure standing against a tree on a hill not far away.

Although she couldn't see her face clearly, she was definitely a woman with short blond hair.

Laika's first instinct was that Winston was playing tricks and just brought the Dark Phoenix here.

But if you look closely, it's not right...

That figure is so familiar... It seems that not long ago, this figure was waking up on me every day, getting lazy, and then kissing me...

No...no way...

Laika estimated in her mind.

It's impossible. Logically speaking, I will never see her again in this life...

On the other side, Sloan felt that the pretense was enough.

"Okay, that's almost it. Between partners, credit should be the main thing."

After that, he took out his pen and wrote down his name.

"That's all right...hey...did you doze off?"

Laika came back to her senses: "Oh, yes, just sign it."

I took the contract and didn't check it too carefully.

My mind is no longer on this matter.

"Then...I can..." Sloan pointed at Cross's fake body.

"Please." Laika reluctantly cheered up and shook hands with Sloan, "Go and enjoy your glory."

"Thank you!"

Sloan held Cross's ankle with one hand and pulled him out of the trunk of the car.

Just dragging it towards the gate of the Mutual Aid Association Castle.

I really look forward to seeing the mutual aid club look like when I drag Cross in front of them.

After walking a few steps, he stopped again and turned to look at Laika.

"Why don't you go with me? I can announce the dissolution of the mutual aid association on the spot and merge it into the council."

Laika smiled contemptuously: "Do you want me to go?"

Do not!

Sloan nodded and continued to drag Cross's body gradually into the darkness.

In fact, Laika really wanted to see Sloan's expression when he saw the real Cross while dragging Cross's body.

And there’s real West, real Firefox.

but…

No matter what happens next, it is the mutual aid association's own business, let them solve it by themselves.

Consider it a last bit of respect for the mutual aid society that is about to become history.

Of course, the more important thing is that the girl on the hill is still waiting for Lycra!

Laika took a few deep breaths and straightened her collar.

Turn around and walk slowly towards the hill.

As the distance got closer, he finally saw the girl's face clearly.

really!

It was Laika's ex-girlfriend who left a note a month ago.

Lucy!
