Chapter 624
You Hit My Heart
âYou and Christian, how exactly do you know each other? The Ballard
family has a mysterious background and is at the top of our gang
control list. Do you know that?"
Karl asked curiously.
âI didn't know Christian very well. I knew him simply because he seems
to have a problem with Luther. Although I asked Christian for help this
time, I have no idea what risk will be behind it. Maybe he has some
other purposes, and I just don't know." Joyce shrugged her shoulders
and said helplessly.
"Oh, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?" Karl smiled lightly.
"Sort of. At least that's what Christian thinks.â Joyce smiled, "Whatever,
we'll just have to deal with the problem right in front of us this time."
Pier 4 was quite remote.
Karl drove for about an hour before they got there.
After Joyce got out of the car, she looked around.
Sure enough, on the dock, it was Vicki standing there. Her slender
shadow was dyed red by the setting sun, and her black and somewhat
purple hair was blowing in the wind, adding some extra demonic
sexiness to her beauty.
Vicki was carrying a large, long black box in her hand. It must be some
special equipment inside.
When she heard the movement behind her, she turned around slowly.
When she saw Joyce and Karl both getting out of the car, she curled
her lips demurely and walked over to them, smiling, "Karl, right? I've
heard a lot about you. I didn't expect to be more handsome in person
than on TV."
âThank you for your help and for providing me with such important
evidence.â Karl nodded with an expressionless face.
Joyce was slightly surprised that Vicki knew Karl, but it was not
surprising for her to see him on TV.
âNot helping. It's a paid service. Two million, to the account.â Vicki
handed Karl a slip of paper.
Two million? Joyce was staggered. A gun was worth at most one
hundred thousand! She asked for twenty times as much! The price was
so outrageous in the black market.
âNo problem.â
Karl took out his own phone on the spot and sent the money quickly.
Then he said, "The money has been transferred.â
"OK, deal. So it's yours now." Vicki handed the box over.
Karl took the long black box from Vicki, turned to the car, and put it
away.
Vicki looked at Karl's cold and desperate back and said to Joyce,
âYou're not bad, hah-hah. You're charming enough to have a police
officer doing illegal deals with you."
Joyce was embarrassed and she bit her lip unnaturally.
"Just kidding. Be safe these days." Vicki patted Joyce's shoulder,
âThere is no secrets in the world and the news of the gun being bought
will leak sooner or later. Whoever that is, he may soon be on your back.
Be careful yourself. See you next time, bye."
"Vicki, thank you." Joyce said gratefully.
"You're welcome!" Vicki didn't turn around and just waved her hand.
Joyce turned around and got into Karl's car.
"What's next?" She asked.
âI'm sending the sniper rifle for analysis. You go home and get some
rest, and I'll let you know as soon as the results come in tomorrow.
Everything will just go as we have planned.â Karl said solemnly.
"Good." Joyce responded.
