Chapter 1045: The End of the Banquet (Second update!!)

The banquet was held in a newly built White House at the Quantico military base.

But the chef was not from the military base itself, but had been rushed over from 1660 Pennsylvania Avenue.

And they brought their own ingredients.

Even the waiters were the same.

Just from this point, President Baron Turner was very attentive to this banquet invitation, and he also showed considerable respect to Hawk.

No, that's not right.

This is no longer respect; it can be called reverence.

Because when Hawk brought Wanda and daughter Qin here from the room where they were resting, President Baron Turner was already waiting at the door to welcome them.

The moment he saw Hawk, Baron Turner's aged face was already full of smiles as he greeted Hawk.

"Good evening, Mr. Phoenix."

"Good evening."

Hawk remained polite and shook hands with the very enthusiastic Baron Turner.

"Please come in, Mr. Phoenix."

"Okay."

Hawk responded, and under Baron Turner's enthusiastic guidance, arrived in the oval dining room, which had been luxuriously decorated after several hours of emergency work that afternoon.

The huge oval dining table was very conspicuous, and the gorgeous dining chairs and the tableware placed in front of each chair were also quite eye-catching.

Especially the candelabra on the dining table, which was also very luxurious.

When Hawk and Baron Turner arrived at the dining room, the others who were dining together were already waiting in the dining room.

Including Baron Turner's Chief of Staff and his assistant Ada, as well as the person in charge of the Quantico military base and others.

Hawk first glanced at the candelabra on the dining table, and then his gaze fell on the curtains on both sides of the dining room.

Baron Turner, who had an enthusiastic expression on the side, followed Hawk's gaze and looked over as well.

"Mr. Phoenix, you are..."

"I'm checking to see if there are any ambushers behind the curtains."

Hawk withdrew his gaze and looked at Baron Turner on the side with a smile: "Just waiting for you to throw a cup as a signal later, and they will rush in and chop me into mincemeat."

Candelabra.

Curtains.

This is the standard configuration for a "candlelight and axe shadow" ambush.

Baron Turner heard Hawk's words, and looking at Hawk's half-smiling expression, laughed and remained calm: "Mr. Phoenix, you are joking."

While saying this, Baron Turner had someone pull open the curtains covering the windows.

In sight.

Outside the window, there were no ambushers, only some soldiers who, even while standing guard and patrolling outside, had an indescribable fanatical sense of belonging on their faces.

Baron Turner looked at Hawk: "You see, Mr. Phoenix, please believe me, for this banquet, our sincerity is very sufficient; we just hope that when you leave, you can change your opinion of us."

He said this with sincerity.

He even believed himself that this was his intention.

After all, the highest realm of lying is that if you want to deceive others, you must first deceive yourself.

However...

Hawk believed it.

He listened to Baron Turner's words, smiled slightly, looked at the latter, and said in a calm tone.

"That's for the best. I also sincerely hope that there will be no accidents at this dinner tonight."

"I can guarantee it to you with my life."

Baron Turner had a serious expression and an infinitely sincere tone.

Promises are for the living; for the dead, saying more is useless.

A banquet is not just about eating; he is so old, it is normal to go to the bathroom halfway through, right?

The most important point.

The Sentinel robot was activated by Professor X. Theoretically speaking, it was also Professor X who awakened the Sentinel robot to attack Hawk.

Therefore, Baron Turner felt that his promise had no problems, and even when he said this, he didn't feel even a tiny bit of guilt.

So, after guaranteeing with his own life, Baron Turner continued to enthusiastically invite Hawk without any interest.

"Please sit."

"Okay."

Hawk saw this, smiled slightly, and no longer discussed the topic of "no zuo no die."

After all, he had tried to give the other party a precious opportunity again.

Unfortunately, the other party did not accept it.

Then so be it. How does the saying go? Right, good words cannot persuade a ghost who wants to die. Since the other party wants to die, let them die.

The only thing he can do is to ensure that after these people die, he sends them to their deaths.

That's all.

Soon.

Hawk sat down on the dining chair with Wanda and daughter Qin, President Baron Turner followed closely behind, and then the others who participated in this banquet sat down one after another. ===== CHAPTER 1047 =====
