the next day.

After the morning class, Locke went directly to the same place where he met Ekaterina.

old place.

As soon as you enter the door.

Hawke saw Ekaterina standing behind the bar pretending to be a bartender.

"Bourbon?"

"No."

Hawke turned the [Business] on the door handle over to [Closed], locked the bar door, walked towards the bar, shook his head and said: "No drinking during work, latte, vanilla flavor, thank you."

Ekaterina smiled, as if she was well prepared, and brought the ordered cup of vanilla latte placed under the bar to the bar: "I appreciate your self-discipline."

"Me too."

Hawke smiled slightly. After all, no one in the entire Gram family could match him in terms of self-discipline. At the very least, he would not drink while working, driving, or killing people.

He only drinks coffee.

Vanilla Latte.

Hawke sat on the high stool, took the coffee from Ekaterina, took a sip, praised it, and then went straight to the topic.

"Target data."

"Shet, I forgot to tell you."

"Um?"

After hearing this, Hawke looked at Ekaterina with some confusion.

"The employer has canceled the order."

"What?"

"The employee who took the order also told me this at nine o'clock this morning."

"..."

In fact, Ekaterina is as mysterious as Hawke in the underground world.

If the mystery of the killer King is 3S level, then the mystery of Ekaterina, also known as the Queen, is no less mysterious than the legendary Seve.

The ones who show up outside and do intelligence transactions under Yekaterina's name are all Yekaterina's young employees from Russia.

Just like Sever is not a person but an organization, Ekaterina is also not a person but an organization, but the only boss of this organization is Ekaterina.

Under normal circumstances, unless it is a major transaction or contact with the high table of the Continental Hotel, the real Ekaterina will come forward.

"Cancel?"

Hawke blinked: "The target died because of an accident?"

Under normal circumstances, they have reached the stage of looking for a killer. Basically, they are the kind that will not stop fighting and rarely cancel the order suddenly.

Not to mention Hawke, even his leader, John, who has been with him for so many years, has never met him. He was about to take the order, but the mission was cancelled.

Hawke shook his head speechlessly and didn't think much about it.

This is different from the last time. Last time, he had already accepted the order. He never accepted unilateral cancellation of the task, but this time he had not accepted the order yet.

In other words, the deal isn't done yet.

"I'm leaving."

Hawke shook his head and stood up from the high stool: "There are two compulsory classes in the afternoon."

"Wait a moment."

"What's wrong."

"This order of 1.2 million has been cancelled, but there is a larger order."

"..."

Hawke's raised movement paused slightly, and then he sat on the high stool again: "Bigger order, how big is it?"

"two millions!"

Ekaterina said to Hawke: "Does it count as a big order?"

Hawke touched his chin.

Heartbeat.

"Two million, so much."

"I didn't expect that you would be so popular after the market rebounded in the killer market. I think you can raise your order price."

"I think it's okay!"

Anyone will be happy to hear that the fruits of their labor can be exchanged for two million dollars.

Hawke is no exception.

Two million per order, this way, it will be faster for him to save 100 million hard-earned money.

This is a good thing.

but……

"Who is the target and the price is so high?"

"Barry Barton"

As Yekaterina spoke, she handed the target information she received an hour ago to Hawke in front of her and said: "There are photos of the target in it, and some basic information I found. It's not much. Looking at the information, it seems

He's a retired agent from the CIA."

Hawke took the information: "But can you tell if it's from the CIA just by looking at the information?"

Yekaterina shrugged: "We have dealt with it before. The CIA never considers the issue of whether it is out of date when disguising information for itself. Otherwise, why do you think CIA agents are always being arrested abroad in recent times?

Find out your identity.”

"All right."

Hawke listened to this and nodded in agreement. As for Ekaterina saying that she had dealt with the CIA, this was normal.

Those in the underground world have more or less interacted with people from the CIA.

This is not surprising at all.

only……

After Hawk opened the information, he looked at the target's photo, blinked, and fell silent.

Ekaterina, who was holding the wine glass and taking a sip of wine, looked at Hawke's movements.

"What's wrong?"

"hiss."

Hawk waved his hand, looked at the target's photo, then looked at the target's information, took a breath, and looked at Ekaterina: "Are you sure this guy is called Barry Barton?"

Said.

Hawke shook the photo in his hand.

Shouldn't this guy be called Clinton Patton?

and……

When did Clinton Patton become a member of the CIA? Shouldn't this guy be an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Nicknamed Hawkeye.

Ekaterina seemed not to know this, and thought Hawke was confirming the information. She nodded and said, "Yes, I checked. What's wrong? Do you know him, or is the information wrong?"

Hawke touched his chin, his eyes flickering.

"Do you know who the employer is?"

"You know the rules."

"I don't know this guy, but I know there is a 90% chance that he doesn't have this name."

"..."

There is no problem with the task, but you cannot ask for employer information.

But if there's a problem with the mission, that's another story.

"Hold on!"

"good."

after awhile.
