On the Morgan Stanley building.
Keith Boone pushed open the door to a conference room and saw Janandra Morgan already seated at the head of the table. He quickly went up to him and asked:
"Mr. Morgan, is there some emergency you've called me here for?"
Janandla Morgan looked blankly at Keith Boone:
"Didn't you text me saying you had something extremely urgent to discuss with me?"
"what?"
Keith Boone was dumbfounded:
"Didn't you, Mr. Morgan, ask me to come here to discuss something?"
"..."
"..."
Their eyes met, and the two immediately realized something, their hearts skipping a beat.
Timely.
Scottie Ruth pushed open the door and walked in:
"Mr. Morgan, is there anything else you need me to do?"
“Something’s not right. Let’s get out of here!” Janandra Morgan said, standing up from his seat with a grim expression.
Below the Morgan Stanley building.
Nalan looked at the gift box in Hawke's hand and couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
It's very easy to see that the gift box is designed and made with great care. Every detail has been carefully considered and designed, with smooth lines and harmonious colors. Even the lid and sides of the box are decorated with beautiful patterns. Every corner is carefully decorated, making the whole box look very exquisite.
"Even the box is so carefully made, and the contents inside..."
Na Lan was overjoyed:
"Could it be a ring?"
"If it really is a marriage proposal, what should I do? Should I say yes, or yes, or yes!"
Of course, while Na Lan was lost in her own fantasies, she knew very well that Hawke would never propose to her. Even if she got pregnant, or even gave birth to ten or eight children for Hawke, it would still be very difficult...
"Even without a proposal, a ring would be wonderful and very meaningful!"
With anticipation and excitement, Na Lan carefully opened the gift box.
Upon opening the gift box, Nalan saw a very exquisite gift—a remote control.
Na Lan: "..."
"Hawk?" Lan was furious. "This is the gift you gave me?"
Even if you're going to deliver it, you can't do it here. This is on the street, in public... Wouldn't it be better to deliver it at home?
"Don't be angry, this is a gift I carefully picked out for you!"
Hawke said with a grin:
"It looks really fun, why don't you give it a try?"
"What are you talking about?" Na Lan asked in shock. "Here?"
Hawke urged, "What are you afraid of? Nobody can see us."
"...You've gone too far!"
"What's so excessive... This is really fun, let's try it first!"
Na Lan stared at Hawke speechlessly; this was utterly absurd.
"Still here?"
“Yes.” Hawke looked at the blue object expectantly, winked at her, and said, “There’s also a red button here, do you want to press it and try it out?”
A blush crept onto the blue face. After hesitating for a while, she rolled her eyes at Hawke, then looked around nervously. Sure enough, no one was watching their direction, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
She involuntarily squeezed her legs together, and with trembling hands, she extended her slender fingers and gently pressed the red button in the middle of the remote control.
"Bang—!!!! Fang!"
On the 36th floor of the Morgan Stanley building, in the mezzanine of the conference room ceiling, a signal receiver lit up red. Immediately afterward, a total of 30 kilograms of TNT explosives, distributed at ten points throughout the floor, exploded with a deafening roar.
People waiting below Broadway witnessed a spectacular smoke show as the 36th floor of the Morgan Stanley building exploded, sending shards of glass flying and fireballs shooting out of the windows – a truly magnificent sight.
Inside the conference room, Janandra Morgan, Scottie Ruth, and Keith Boone, who were just about to leave, were instantly blown to smithereens. Flames engulfed their remains, and they were sent flying into the air.
"Wow, look! Another person has ascended to heaven!"
225 Oh no, I'm doomed! [Please subscribe and give flowers!]
"boom--!!!!!"
The 36th floor of Morgan Stanley exploded.
Because of the blue light, which was positioned directly in that direction, her gaze was immediately drawn to the flames on the high-rise building.
then.
The blue head also split open.
His brain exploded.
My mind went blank.
She didn't even know what she was thinking.
Morgan Stanley was Na Lan's former employer, so it's impossible that he didn't know where the Morgan Stanley building was or what Morgan Stanley represented.
Morgan Stanley, one of the five major investment banks on Wall Street, and arguably one of the world's five major investment banks, holds a very influential position in the investment banking industry. It is also one of the world's three major financial institutions, alongside Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase.
With over 1,200 offices in 37 countries worldwide, more than 60,000 employees, and assets under its custody exceeding $3 trillion, it remains a powerful force influencing the global financial landscape and social structure to this day.
Morgan Stanley is a powerful behemoth in itself, and what's even more formidable is that it is also part of the Morgan financial group—Morgan Stanley has long been considered by the international financial community to have inherited the dominant position of the Morgan financial group.
What makes the Morgan financial group truly formidable is the presence of JPMorgan Chase. In 2000, Chase Manhattan Bank and JPMorgan Chase & Co. were established. JPMorgan Chase is a multinational financial services institution and one of the largest banks in the United States, with more than 26 employees worldwide. Its strength is subtly even greater than that of Morgan Stanley.
General Electric (GE), the world’s largest diversified services company, has businesses in electronics, energy, transportation, aerospace, healthcare and financial services, in more than 100 countries and employs more than 3 people worldwide.
General Dynamics, one of the largest defense conglomerates in the United States, has three main businesses: marine equipment, primarily manufacturing warships; aviation, including commercial aircraft and fighter jets; and offensive weapons—the F-16 fighter jet is manufactured here.
Grumman Aircraft Corporation, the world's fourth-largest military manufacturer, the world's largest radar manufacturer, and the largest naval shipbuilder—the world-renowned B-2 stealth bomber and RQ-Global Hawk unmanned aerial vehicle are products of this company.
In addition, there are General Motors, American Steel, Hannover Messe, ITT, Westinghouse Electric, Northwest Bank, New York Life Insurance Company... These giants are all Morgan-affiliated companies. Even if the Morgan consortium cannot completely control them, it still maintains a tremendous influence.
It can be said that the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family are the two most prominent families in America. That's why there's an American proverb: "The elephants belong to the Rockefeller family, and the donkeys belong to the Morgan family."
So what did Lan just do?
She blew up an entire floor of Morgan Stanley, but thankfully she didn't bomb the buildings of JPMorgan Chase, General Electric, General Dynamics, Grumman Aircraft Company, and others, so it wasn't a big problem...
Na Lan knew very well that she had just played a round of Nine Clans Elimination.
Morgan Stanley will never let the person who bombed their building get away with it.
The last person who dared to bomb the Morgan Stanley building was Uncle Ben, so Uncle Ben was burned alive and his whole family was exterminated by the Americans—Morgan Stanley was located on floors 47 to 74 of that building, and the entire company occupied the very center of the building.
The blue-haired man's mind went blank as he muttered, "It's over, it's over, I'm doomed, I'm doomed..."

Above the Morgan Stanley building.
"It seems someone is plotting against us. Let's get out of here!"
Janandal Morgan stood up with a grim expression and spoke to Scotty Ruth and Keith Boone beside him.
Who did it?
Janandal Morgan's first suspicion fell on the young master of the Lane family.
After all, they had just been plotting to extort $70 billion from that young master!
"is it him?"
Janandra Morgan frowned. How could that person have acted so quickly, finding him so soon?
Originally, Janandal Morgan's plan was to remain behind the scenes, letting Scotty Ruth and Keith Boone take the lead as shields. Once they had the $70 billion, he planned to use them as scapegoats to vent the young master's anger, depending on the situation.
Meanwhile, he himself was living a carefree and smug life with $7 billion. You have to understand, even though the Morgan family still maintains a strong influence in America, there aren't many truly wealthy people left in the family. After all, with so many people, if you take a share and I take a share, how much is left? Gyanendra Morgan is just a branch of the Morgan family, so his personal assets are only a few hundred million dollars. With Hawke's $70, his wealth has increased more than tenfold. Why wouldn't he take this deal?
"Could it be that there is a Ryan family mole among the senior managers at Morgan Stanley?"
Aside from this reason, Janandra Morgan couldn't understand why Hawk was able to identify him as the mastermind so quickly—well, no one could have guessed that, in front of Hawk's AI Z, the connection between the three of them was like a live broadcast!
Janandal Morgan's mind raced: "If I'm caught red-handed, should the plan continue?"
A little hesitant.
The evidence he possessed, or rather the scheme he orchestrated with Killian, could only indirectly prove that Hawke was shorting the Roxon Group's factory in advance. Beyond that, it couldn't prove that Hawke was the one who actually bombed the Roxon factory.
He had seen Hawke fight those superpowered people in Manhattan and knew how terrifying Hawke was. Janandra Morgan was also a little afraid that he would be hit and killed by a dump truck while driving on the road.
but……
Wealth and wealth are found in danger.
That's $70 billion!
226 I have a lawyer friend named Zhang San
"Fuck!" Janandra Morgan cursed inwardly. "I don't believe that brat would actually dare to touch me! I'm a member of the Morgan family, for crying out loud!!"
In his view, any one of the many behemoths controlled by the Morgan Group could stand on equal footing with Ryan. Did little Ryan really dare to fight the Morgan family to the death?
It's done!
Even after being discovered, he decided to continue doing it.
Who told you, little Ryan, to be so bold as to bomb Rockson's factory? If you don't want to face the double attack from Rockson and Morgan, you'd better hand over that $70 billion!
At the same time, he also decided to keep all the things he had collected safe, and if anything happened to him, he would definitely not let that little Ryan get away with it!
