Chapter 1048: Calm Down a Little
Frank was ruthless toward bad guys, but even though Gray Rabbit was a weak chicken, they had gone through life and death together several tis and had never betrayed each other.
“Who the hell are you? Don’t talk about Puncher, those damn guys call Punisher! You’re saying you’re not their accomplice?” he finally said in a dark voice.
Luke was dumbfounded. “What?”
He never thought that there would be a problem here.
But Puncher and Punisher had two completely different anings, alright! Why so sensitive?
Roasting Robert’s old comrade in his heart, Luke said, “This isn’t my first rodeo. Daredevil knows too. His father is a boxer (puncher), but it’s not like he mistakes for his dad.”
Frank was stumped again. “You know Red?”
Luke said helplessly, “He’s called Daredevil; you call him Red?”
Fine, Lawyer Matt did recently get a new outfit from sowhere, and it was indeed dark red.
However, Frank had just shot Lawyer Matt/Red in the head a few days ago. Matt’s concussion was probably better now, but there was now a hole in his helt.
Thinking that, Luke suddenly felt that he wasn’t too unlucky.
Red... uh, Matt had taken a solid shot. He was lucky he wasn’t hurt.
Frank hesitated even more.
He usually didn’t hesitate. He had just killed a bunch of enemies, and had run into soone who might be an enemy. The boiling desire for revenge made him not want to believe the other party’s words.
However, the other party spoke with confidence. Not only did he ntion his old comrade, Gray Rabbit, he even ntioned Red.
Red wasn’t Frank’s friend. There was no reason for the other party to ntion him, but he had.
He had heard a lot about Red’s activities from the gang mbers. Since this person was Red’s friend, he might not be a bad person.
Listening to Frank’s breathing and heartbeat, Luke knew that he had finally cald down. He continued, “Can we talk sowhere else now?”
But Frank was blunt. “No, these miscreants are dead. Just say whatever you want to say.”
Luke said, “Your na is Frank Castle, right? Calm down. I hacked into the police database and found so clues, but I need to ask you so questions. So, if you want to listen, stay calm.”
Frank’s breathing turned heavy. “Speak!”
“You and your family were attacked together back then, right?” Luke asked.
“Yes,” said Frank.
Luke said, “This identity of yours was very clean. None of your army records were left behind, right?”
“Yes,” said Frank.
Luke said, “Did you know that soone erased your relationship with your family from the police files and turned it into two separate cases?”
Frank’s emotions were in turmoil. “What do you an?”
He wasn’t stupid, but it was difficult for him to control his emotions when it ca to his family. It was also difficult for him to analyze it rationally.
Even though he knew that Luke wasn’t a bad guy, he couldn’t help but want to take action, because Luke might be a gang mber.
Luke sighed and said, “If it’s just a case of an innocent family accidentally killed by gunfire, why would it need to be covered up?”
After a pause, he continued, “There are at least dozens of similar cases in New York every year. The only difference is the number of casualties. Your wife and children died, but that was just three victims; there was no need for NYPD to tamper with the file for a case like this.”
Frank seed to get it. His face was horribly dark. “Soone from NYPD is involved? What are they trying to cover up?”
Luke said, “Calm down. Do you want more clues?”
Frank took several quick breaths to contain his impending outburst. “I’m listening.”
Luke said, “I checked the hospital records. You and your family were sent to tropolitan General after the shooting, but there’s nothing to show that you’re related to each other. Also, soone signed a Do Not Resuscitate order for you after your wife and children were declared dead. What do you think that ans?”
“Who did it?” Frank roared. “Who did it?”
At this point, it was obvious.
Soone wanted to cover up the deaths of his family and even wanted him to die with his wife and children. It was very likely that this person was from the police.
This was because only soone from the relevant departnt could sign such an order.
Luke said, “Whatever you’re thinking, go out and wait. I need to clean up this scene.”
Frank’s eyes were bloodshot. He threw away the shotgun in his hand and strode over. “Tell who it is!”
Luke had no choice but to co out from behind the car to et him.
Frank grabbed him by the collar. “Tell who... uh...”
Luke withdrew his hand and turned off the electric shock function on his glove. Holding the twitching Frank, he said, “Don’t overthink it, this is just to calm you down a little. I’ll help you find out who your enemies are. They can’t escape, okay?”
Despite his rage, these words lingered in Frank’s mind.
A mont later, Luke put him inside the car outside the workshop, and he watched Luke walk back in alone.
A few minutes later, Luke got into the driver’s seat and handed him a hood. “Have you cald down? Cover your face if you have. I don’t want anyone to know that you’re in my car.”
Frank pulled the hood over his head silently.
Luke drove west until he reached the Hudson River. He stopped the car in a quiet corner and said, “Logically speaking, you should have been able to find the information yourself. Why didn’t you check it?”
Frank was silent for a long mont. “I always thought it was all done by the three gangs in the park that day,” he said sullenly.
Pondering for a mont, Luke nodded. “There’s no doubt they’re the murderers. It’s true that you killed them, but there were suspicious points in the police and hospital records.”
Frank gritted his teeth. “There were undercover agents. It should have been a sting operation. There were 85 mbers from the three gangs there that day, and many of them were key figures. If they were all captured, a large number of drug traffickers would have been taken down in one go, which would have been a huge coup.”
Luke was surprised. It seed that the electroshock therapy had been a good idea.
However, he didn’t care how smart the other party was. He was only here to help Robert return the favor. “Did you find anything else?”
Frank said, “I interrogated so people who were present back then. They said that a big drug deal was supposed to go down. Soone contacted the three gangs about a large amount of goods, at least a ton.”
Luke was surprised. He didn’t know about this.
Of course, that was also because his only goal had been to find Frank.
