Chapter 1255: Profiteer, Boss, and Lunatic
Luke chuckled.
Flegg’s men would definitely be unhappy with Wade, who had a foul mouth and postured a lot.
They were all special troops who went on secret missions, and were very ruthless.
If Wade hadn’t stopped at the time, Flegg’s men would’ve definitely blown his head off.
Wade’s combat skills were top-notch; he would have definitely sensed it.
Perhaps Flegg felt that it was embarra.s.sing to rely on his men to help him when he lost, so he let Wade go.
Or, he might have also sensed that Wade was trouble.
If you didn’t give this guy enough money, it was impossible to make him obedient and a good soldier.
Hence, he gave up on Wade.
But the current Wade, or rather, Deadpool, was different.
Although he was even crazier, Flegg was tempted by the fact that Wade’s super self-healing boosted his strength.
At that moment, Luke and Wade walked into an alley where a black Ford Explorer was parked.
Luke opened the car door with the remote, and they got in, before they took off the optical camouflage cloaks.
Wade grabbed the cloak with both hands and didn’t return it at all. Instead, he searched his body for a place to store it.
Luke snorted. “That’s mine.”
Wade said, “Boss, don’t be polite with me. For the sake of helping you complete your mission after I took dozens of shots in the a.s.s last time, give this to me as a Christmas present.”
Luke started the car. “It’s already May. Is your Christmas that long?”
Wade put his hands to his heart. “But I was admitted into the hospital before Christmas.”
“…” Luke changed the subject. “This thing needs a battery. Do you have a matching battery?”
Wade paused. “What? Is there a charger? Or a t.i.tanium charger?”
Luke glanced at him. “Do you think it’s a t.i.tanium phone? This thing costs a million, and can only run for 300 hours.”
Wade couldn’t help but curse, then came back to himself. “Boss, I’m not cursing you. I’m just cursing this profiteer.”
A certain profiteer: “…It’s an exclusive product. Do you want to buy it?”
Conflicted, Wade gritted his teeth and nodded. “At most, I’ll rob a few drug gangs.”
Luke said, “What do you need it for? You’ve been causing a lot of trouble recently. This time, it was on an overpa.s.s in broad daylight. You only want to hide now?”
Wade said, “I… want to see Vanessa.”
Luke raised an eyebrow. “That’s your wife. Are you sure you need to sneak around to see her?”
Wade was vexed. “I don’t want her to see me like this. It’ll scare her.”
Pondering for a moment, Luke still didn’t mention the Thousand Faces System.
He had planned to give it to Wade as an investment in a future ally, but after seeing this guy today, he realized that he was quite abnormal.
His Pheromone Control was useless on men, and he would have to test other methods first. Thus, he couldn’t take out the Thousand Faces System for now.
Thinking that, Luke gave him a charger. “Temporary charger. Charge it for two hours and use it for five. However, it’s easy to be detected in the rain and strong light. Don’t peek in the bathroom.”
Wade was delighted. “That’s fine. The bathroom is gla.s.s. She won’t pull the curtain close if she’s alone at home.”
Luke was lost for words. Why is your thinking becoming more and more warped? As expected of the loony thinking of a crack mercenary!
After that, he dropped the guy off in Harlem, which wasn’t far from Vanessa’s place.
Looking at Wade, who got out and ran, Luke shook his head and drove off.
He had initially planned to rope Wade in.
Now seeing how much of a loony this guy was, his plan needed to be tweaked, so he naturally dropped the idea.
He gave Wade a phone for communication and an optical camouflage cloak. As long as this guy wanted to keep using the cloak, he wouldn’t throw these things away, so the GPS system was useful.
Thus, Luke just casually reminded the guy not to cause a scene in broad daylight, in case he was dragged off to work for someone else.
Wade wasn’t afraid of being found at all, but Vanessa was his biggest weakness.
At Luke’s reminder, he became obedient.
In any case, it wasn’t hard for him to kill quietly and do things stealthily.
It was just that there had been no need for him to restrain himself.
Now… for Vanessa’s sake, it was better for him to hold back! While comforting himself, he stared at the optical camouflage cloak in his hand before he decisively put it on and went straight to Vanessa’s place.
Finally, he could see Vanessa up close! Thank you, Boss Smith, for your generosity!
Wade then huddled in a corner near the bathroom and quietly observed everything in the room.
This was where he and Vanessa had lived their life together!
On the ranch in Texas, Luke yawned lazily, and Selina called out, “Hey, come and take a look. What’s wrong with the meat I made? Why isn’t it delicious?”
Luke opened a bottle of beer from the fridge and had a mouthful before he walked over.
A moment later…
“Are you sure you carried out all the steps I told you?”
“Yes.”
“Then why isn’t the meat cut? This is a full slab of meat. Don’t tell me there’s something wrong with my eyes.”
“…It’s Gold Nugget’s fault. It was nagging me, and after I talked to it, I forgot to cut the meat.”
“Then give this meat to it then.”
“Whine!”
…
That night, Luke’s clone was prepared to go out again.
He had already put on the Batman suit and chosen his target.
There were a few gangsters with a large stockpile of goods in Brooklyn who were waiting to be cleaned up. The doctors in the orthopedics departments of the hospitals in New York were waiting. It was time for them to get some practical training!
Luke would earn 3,000 to 5,000 experience and credit points tonight.
At that moment, Alfred suddenly sent him an alert. “Master, Deadpool has an urgent message.”
Luke found that odd. “I didn’t set up an emergency communication b.u.t.ton for him, did I? Put it through.”
Wade was a lunatic. If Luke gave him an emergency b.u.t.ton, he might take it out to play when he was bored.
In any case, this guy had a terrifying self-healing ability. He wouldn’t die even if Luke showed up a little late, so Luke didn’t give him an emergency b.u.t.ton.
The call went through, and before Luke could say anything, Wade shouted, “h.e.l.lo, is that Boss Smith? My wife has been kidnapped. I need your help.”
Luke said, “Weren’t you hiding outside her bathroom?”
The guy had been in Vanessa’s place the whole time; when all was said and done, he would definitely be peeping at his wife.
Luke was curious. Who could kidnap someone from under Wade’s nose?
Wade was definitely Vanessa’s lackey. If anyone p.i.s.sed her off, Wade would fight them to the death.
