As the two people waited, night gradually enveloped the entire city of London. Except for the factories that were still working all night, the lights in ordinary citizens' homes began to gradually go out. The moon was completely invisible in the sky, and thick smoke completely enveloped the sky.

The city began to enter the embrace of night.

At Carl's house, he and John quietly watched the candles on the table, waiting for the time to come.

Staring at the candle that was getting shorter as it burned, when Karl felt that the time was almost up, John took out his pocket watch and took a look.

"There's still half an hour left, let's leave now."

After saying that, without waiting for Karl to agree, he got up from the chair and walked out the door without caring what he thought.

Looking at John who had already gone out, Karl put out the candle, rubbed off the wax stuck to his hands and followed him.

Before leaving this street, he looked back at his home, wondering if he would be able to return here after tonight. Karl was unwilling to believe a word of John's assurance.

He did not hear the sound of his neighbor Mrs. Lawn coming home tonight. The lights in her room were also turned off at this time. Karl felt that the people who caused trouble in the company were not as simple as John said, otherwise he would not let a person

The old man didn't even have a chance to go home.

Compared to the so-called absorption into the organization and generous rewards, he felt that the people behind John were more willing to shut up forever. After all, only the dead can keep secrets absolutely.

Regardless of the decent performance of John in front of him and Benn and Grouk who came to see him before, their fate as temporary tools may not be much better.

The weather in London in July was not that hot yet, and the ground was still wet from the rain during the day. Taking advantage of the darkness, Karl and John walked out of the street and took a small path closer to the Thames River.

By the time they arrived at the agreed upon location, it was only a few minutes before 11 o'clock.

Karl could see at a glance that there were several people standing there on a small pier under the river embankment, as if waiting for something.

"That's it."

John greeted Karl and led him over.

After John and the people on the dock confirmed each other's identities, the guy who looked like the leader came over.

"Is this the one who leads the way?"

The leader was a bald man with a height of over 1.8 meters and a strong build. He was wearing a white shirt and red overalls. The cuffs of his hands were rolled up high. He looked very troublesome.

"That's right, it's him. He's been brought here, so I'll go back and deliver the mission first."

"It's none of your business, go ahead."

After John finished negotiating with the big man, he turned back and said to Green.

"When you get to the place, you just lead them in to cause destruction. It's that simple."

After speaking to Karl, John seemed to be ready to retire, and he happily said to Karl before leaving.

"I'm going back to collect the reward first."

Then he left the dock happily. Looking at John's leaving figure, what Karl was thinking was: I wonder if this guy will have a chance to see the sun tomorrow?

"Man, my name is Mai Lin, what do you call me?"

After John left, the bald man in front of him patted Karl on the shoulder and smiled friendly at him.

From his tall and burly figure and strong and powerful arms, you can tell that he is definitely a ruthless character.

"Just call me Carl."

Carl replied with a smiley face and introduced himself.

"Come on, get on the boat first."

After he finished speaking, Mailin immediately greeted Karl and boarded the only boat on this small pier, then called his four men and sailed the boat out in a swift movement.

"We'll go across the Thames River and move more quickly later."

"no problem."

Although he responded well with his mouth, Karl had no idea at all in his heart. The bald man in front of him and his four men were all dressed in the same way. Generally, dock workers would dress like this, but there were

One thing is different, the workers' overalls are definitely not red!

As a native Londoner, Carl knew very well that in the entire Thames, only members of the powerful Black Crow Gang dared to dress like this!

This kind of gang member is a truly ruthless character. According to Karl's guess, after they finish destroying the printer, their final job will probably be to help their employer 'handle' themselves. As for whether he can deal with these five strong men one against five

, he still felt a little guilty. There was no doubt about the dagger's power, but he had not yet practiced the combat skill called Phantom Knife!

Although it is late at night, there are still a large number of ships coming and going on the Thames, and the activities of industrial society will not stop with the arrival of night. The towering sore throats on the ships are billowing with thick smoke, and the Thames River is still lively at night!

Under the cover of these large ships, their humble boat slowly sailed down the river, and it didn't take long for them to reach their destination.

The place where they parked the boat was a sewage outlet. Because it needed to be inspected regularly, there was a step next to it for people to move up and down.

Karl knew this sewage outfall. The sewage discharged from his workplace would flow into the Thames here. This was something he learned about when chatting with his colleagues before he was unemployed.

Seeing this drainage outlet, Karl knew that as long as they went up from here, their destination would be not far away.

The six people went up the steps one by one and arrived at a riverside market. Because it was already late at night, the market that was bustling during the day became deserted. The merchants who were active here during the day were completely invisible at this time.

Originally, Karl thought that he would have to lead the way here, but to his surprise, Mailin looked like he was very familiar with this place and led them directly to a small alley next to it.

While moving in the alley, Karl was keenly aware that the surrounding environment was surprisingly quiet.

This is totally against common sense!

According to what John said, at least 20 people were making trouble in the company. This place is only a few steps away from the company, so it’s impossible not to hear any movement!

This was very abnormal, and Carl followed with uneasiness in his heart, praying that no new trouble would arise.

A few minutes later, the six of them arrived at the fence behind the company.

"So how do we climb in?"

Facing this high wall, Karl asked.

They were not Spider-Man. It was impossible to get through this kind of place. Moreover, this unusually quiet night gave him a very bad feeling.

"It has been prepared for a long time."

Answering Karl's question, Mailin walked aside and opened up a pile of debris in the alley. Two ladders lay there quietly. It looked like they had been prepared in advance.

"Once you get in, you will lead the way."

After greeting Karl, they had already set up the ladder skillfully. While Karl walked over, Mailin's two younger brothers had quickly climbed up the wall.
