Chapter 3: Peerless Assassin

never mind.

After the money is gone, you can make more money. In life, comfort is the first priority.

"Gwen."

"what!"

After the real estate agent Oren left, Locke looked at Gwen, who was standing there in confusion. After shouting, he looked at Gwen who had recovered, and smiled, "Thank you, Gwen."

Gwen was slightly taken aback. A good family and a good education gave her the ability to quickly stabilize herself: "Thank me for what, I didn't help much."

Originally it was.

I also plan to help the new classmate introduce an apartment.

result…

This new friend just waved his pen, good guy, he just bought a set.

Too arrogant.

This guy isn't lying to me, is he?

Not an orphan at all, but a child of a rich family.

Locke looked at the expression on Gwen's face and smiled: "This is the legacy my parents left me. After I bought this house, there is not much left, but I have to start over."

"...Sorry, that's not what I meant."

"fine."

Locke smiled and said, "Actually, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have made up my mind so quickly. To express my gratitude, I would invite you to a meal to express my gratitude."

"But I didn't help you."

"you have."

Locke said sincerely: "When I came to New York, you were the first friend I knew. Let me know that New York is warm."

Gwen looked at the sincere Locke and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

She feels that if she rejects Locke, she will make the new classmate think that New York City is not only problematic, but also cold.

so…

Gwen hesitated for a while, then looked at Locke: "Just for dinner?"

Locke nodded: "Yes, just to express my gratitude."

It's not like dating.

Gwen breathed a sigh of relief.

The place where Locke treats guests to dinner is not far away. It's on Fifth Avenue. When he just came over by taxi, Locke saw a nicely decorated restaurant.

He doesn't care about what he eats.

but…

Locke likes wine, especially bourbon, but it is impossible to buy wine through formal channels if you are under 21 years old, and restaurants will not sell you wine.

Unless this restaurant wants to close down.

Although it was a bit early to eat at 5 o'clock, the restaurant opened at 5 o'clock, which means it is normal.

"Ok."

Gwen, who was sitting opposite, bit the egg **** in his hand, and his eyes lit up: "This tastes very good."

Locke smiled and said, "Next time you have the opportunity, come over together."

Gwen raised his head and looked at Locke with a smile on his face: "Classmate Locke, is it a date next time?"

Locke's eyes were clear: "Everything is fine!"

Gwen: "…"

What do you call everything?

What kind of answer is this?

out of the restaurant.

Gwen plans to go home.

just...

"Gwen?"

A police car flashed in front of him, and then it fell back directly. After the co-pilot's window was about to come down, a man sitting in the co-pilot appeared in the sight of Locke and Gwen.

Locke raised an eyebrow.

Gwen was also slightly taken aback: "Dad?"

Sheriff George Stacey stepped out of the police car, his eyes turning on his daughter and Locke next to him.

Good guy.

Suddenly, a wild boar appeared when he was dozing off?

Gwen also quickly reacted from her daze, and introduced to her father: "Dad, this is Locke, a classmate who just transferred from school today."

Seeing this, Locke also stretched out his hand: "Hello."

George glanced at the right hand that Locke handed over, hesitated for a while, shook hands, and squeezed out a smile: "Hello."

Half a sound.

Gwen and Locke said goodbye, got into George's police car, and left Locke's sight.

After half an hour.

Gwen's house.

"came back?"

As a full-time housewife, Helen looked at her husband and daughter who walked in and said with a smile, "Go wash your hands and eat right away."

Gwen responded.

George said directly: "Your daughter just came back from a big meal."

Gwen turned to look at George and stomped, "Dad!"

He had already explained it on the way back.

Helen looked at her daughter and looked at George curiously: "What's going on?"

George took off his uniform: "Ask your daughter."

Helen looked at Gwen: "Gwen?"

Gwen was a little speechless: "Mom, it's a new classmate. I went with him to find the apartment, and then, as a thank you, he invited me to a meal, it's that simple."

Helen nodded, not feeling anything strange.

George laughed and said, "Ask again, the apartment that the classmate was looking for."

Gwen looked at George helplessly again, and then, meeting his mother Helen's eyes, sighed: "The Star Building."

Helen raised her eyebrows and looked at George.

The star building is famous in New York City.

"Your classmate..."

"Locke is an orphan."

"Ok?"

Gwen sighed: "The money for the house is the inheritance left to him by Locke's parents. Again, this is not a date. I'm full. I'll go back to my room first."

said.

Gwen walked directly towards the stairs on the second floor.

Helen looked at George.

George also shook his head. Gwen didn't tell the situation when he was in the car.

If this is the case, UU Reading can explain it.

Think about it a lot.

Helen and George looked at each other, and then Helen walked directly into the kitchen: "Your daughter is angry, you are responsible for putting out the fire you start."

obviously.

My daughter must have said nothing because she didn't want to expose her classmates' privacy.

George opened his mouth and touched the back of his head: "Cocoa, what about hot cocoa?"

The daughter is angry. If one cup of hot cocoa can't solve the problem, then two cups.

George already had experience with this.

Star Building.

Locke retrieved the courier and returned to the apartment he just bought and stayed in.

Hiss!

After unpacking, a suitcase appeared in sight.

Open!

Into the eye.

Two stacks of one hundred "Continental Gold Coins" lie quietly in it.

There is also a notebook that cannot be seen on the market at all.

After Locke took out the notebook, he opened it, and then waited for the notebook to turn on, got up, and walked towards the second floor of the apartment with the notebook.

in the library.

Locke locked the gold coins in the safe and sat down at the computer desk.

Soon.

After the laptop was successfully connected to the Internet, a page popped up.

"Please verify your identity!"

"Unparalleled!"

"Verification succeeded!"

After a mechanical voice came out, on the side of the page, a piece of information was quickly refreshed and passed.

Locke blankly looked at the name information on the screen.

Right hand.

A Colt M1911A1 pistol fitted with a silencer stands out.
