Chapter 79 A Strange Visitor Who Appeared Suddenly in the Middle of the Night

Li Changheng came out from the basement of the old apartment with his mind a little confused.

Standing on the streets of New York at the end of October, watching the withered and yellow leaves fall from the sky.

He took a deep breath and sighed in his heart. Fortunately, old Corleone was shot only on the fourth day after the accident at Lane Farm.

Otherwise, he would definitely take Barney and leave New York immediately.

The Gray Gang in the United States is said to be terrible, and it is indeed terrible.

Although Corleone doesn't do flour business, but what do they rely on to survive?

It's not even illegal.

However, to say that they are not scary is actually the case.

To put it bluntly, these people are businessmen who use violence to maintain their business.

Whether it's the dwarf mules in Spice Harbor, or the Mafia in New York, the Irish gang, the Mexican gang, and the future polar bear gang, the purpose of all evil is money.

Since the essence is also a businessman, given the choice, the basic business principles still have to be talked about.

Even old Corleone would act as an underground referee, helping ordinary people of Italian origin to maintain a good reputation of hypocrisy.

Because of this reputation, the Corleone family, although not the most powerful of the five Italian families, has gained the attention of many upper-level people in the United States and acted as their pawns.

With these resources, the Corleone family has the qualifications to enter the upper class.

Because of this, he has always been envied and envied by the other four families. Old Corleone refused to cooperate in the flour business and was blackmailed. In fact, it is the reason for the accumulation of conflicts.

But business is business. Once it involves vendetta, it will be completely different.

The revenge of killing one's father is irreconcilable, regardless of the East and the West.

Old Corleone had three biological sons, an adopted son who was raised by his side since he was a child, and a daughter.

The godfather was seriously injured and comatose, and the one who can make the decision now is of course the boss Sonny.

But Sonny is a typical irritable, irascible, brainless thug-type character.

Now that his father has been plotted against, revenge is certain.

Sitting on a bench in a park, Li Changheng pondered for a while, wondering what benefit he could gain from this matter?

And money is not what he cares about most now, but relationship is.

Although getting involved with the Gray Gang will definitely cause trouble, but as long as they don't participate in their business and instead bring them business, the Gray Gang in New York still has to do things after taking the money.

Whether Vito Corleone is hypocritical, or sincerely willing to help Italian-Americans solve their troubles.

After all, he is not the kind of person who has no bottom line. He can talk about anything without involving Corleone's core interests.

Of course, the Corleone family is not a good person. According to the law, they should all be imprisoned or even shot.

But the place he was in was not the celestial dynasty, and Li Changheng didn't want to take care of the internal turmoil in the United States.

And no matter which Gray Gang family leader has a family, it's even easy to find out where they live.

Li Changheng recalled the plot in the movie, not only thinking that old Corleone was almost assassinated in the hospital, but also thinking that his daughter should have just married not long ago.

For $5 at a newsstand, you can easily get a month's worth of newspapers.

There is a tradition among rich and prestigious families in the United States in this era. When someone in the family gets married, a daughter is married, or an elder dies, the news will be published in the newspaper.

Although a family like Corleone would definitely not dare to brazenly write about Victor Corleone marrying his daughter in the newspaper.

But according to his daughter's surname, after only a dozen minutes of searching, he found out that the Corleone family should live in Long Island, New York.

After driving around Long Island for more than an hour, when I passed a manor, I saw not only seven or eight people guarding the manor, but also two small cars blocking the inside and outside of the gate to prevent people from driving into the manor.

Needless to say this was Corleone Manor.

He drove the car to the side of the road tens of meters away, and checked the time. It was now 1:30 in the afternoon, and the bodyguards protecting Old Corleone should be divided into different shifts.

Otherwise, not many bodyguards can keep their nerves tense for two or three days and still maintain full energy.

After waiting for almost three hours, three cars came out of the manor, and Li Changheng followed them from a distance with his lips curled up.

The car only drove for less than ten minutes. After seeing the sign of the hospital from a distance, it slowed down and watched three cars drive into the hospital.

Turn on the turn signal and turn into another street.

Back at the secret quarters, put on the vest holster, checked the M1911, took three clips and the dagger, and waited until 9 pm before driving back to the hospital on Long Island.

I thought there wouldn't be many visitors at this time, but old Corleone is a godfather-level leader.

Li Changheng, who parked his car outside the hospital, could still see many people driving or walking to visit him.

I can only wait outside the hospital for the night to arrive.

At around 11 o'clock in the evening, Li Changheng, who was waiting impatiently, wondered if he remembered the wrong time.

Finally, a group of New York policemen came to the hospital to trick out one or two or three of the bodyguards responsible for protecting Old Corleone and arrest them.

Watching the police car leave, Li Changheng smiled, got out of the car and walked quickly into the quiet hospital late at night.

Going up to the second floor, avoiding the sight of the nurse on duty, it took several minutes to find old Corleone in the ward.

Gently opened the door, walked to the hospital bed, saw old Corleone who was sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at him.

A hoarse, deep, and somewhat feeble voice came from his throat, "Ma, please, when you do it, be quick."

With a smile at the corner of Li Changheng's mouth, he opened the hem of his clothes to reveal the bright silver pistol under his armpit, and then put down the hem of his clothes again under old Corleone's unwilling and regretful eyes.

He retreated to the corner by the door of the ward, closed his eyes and listened quietly to the footsteps outside the ward.

Old Corleone, who raised his head with difficulty, saw that Li Changheng actually closed his eyes, and soon thought that this strange young man who suddenly appeared should not come to kill him, but to protect him.

"You, you are, who sent you."

"Hush,,,".

Li Changheng raised his finger and pointed outside.

Old Corleone, who had reacted, understood that now was not the time to speak.

When the New York police came to arrest people before, he knew that someone would come to kill him, but now it doesn't matter what Li Changheng's purpose is or who sent him.

It's better than lying in bed waiting to die!

A few minutes later, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside. Old Corleone opened his eyes and glanced at Li Changheng. He took out his M1911 casually, pulled the bolt carefully, leaned against the wall, and pointed the gun at the door of the ward.

There was a sound of "click" opening the door.

As soon as the visitor entered the ward, his head was pointed at the gun.

"Wait, wait," said old Corleone, who had seen the person clearly, hurriedly said, "My own."

And Li Changheng also saw that the person was Mike Corleone, the youngest son of the Corleone family and the future new godfather.

Putting away the gun, he dragged Mike Corleone into the ward. Li Changheng tilted his head, pretended to look out of the ward for a few moments, and then put away the gun.

Without waiting for Mike Corleone to speak, he said first, "Call someone now, and then we will transfer Mr. Corleone to another ward to delay time.

It was the New York police who came to arrest the bodyguard just now, and the leading policeman must have been bribed, and it would be very troublesome if there was a shootout.”

Thanks to Huiming Suoji, Master Bayi doesn't have the money to give a big reward, thank you.

By the way, Master Bai is a landlord on the Silk Road, he is really rich, haha, just kidding.
