Chapter 547

by karlmaks — A middleman, a mediator—this special role often appears in the gangster world and plays an important part. In fact, they are like brokers on the other side. It's just that their titles are different, but their job is the same. Get some benefits, help people solve problems. Often, middlemen and mediators are those well-known figures who "possess a certain social status and influence." They don't have to be gang members— For example, Councilman Wade and Councilman Williams. As long as someone…

Chapter 526

by karlmaks — The call between Charlie and Bandy didn't last long before it ended. They both had their own important matters to attend to and no time for a lengthy chat. Neither of them discussed the idea of asking the big shots for help, because they both knew it was impossible. If their opponent were someone like the mayor, then they could call for aid, as it was indeed not something they could handle on their own. Just like Councilman Williams, who brought in Senator Cleveland, and all of the mayor's schemes…

Chapter 558

by karlmaks — In the early morning, a gentleman was driving from his home. Not long after he started, just as he was about to enter the Starlight District, he suddenly found several guys wearing safety helmets blocking the middle of the road. One of them was even waving a signal flag in his hand, the kind with a small red and white wooden pole and a red flag, which was very eye-catching. "I'm sorry, sir. We're dealing with a sewer manhole cover problem. This area is temporarily closed." The gentleman driving…

Chapter 537

by karlmaks — The private casino operators from two districts sat in Lance's office. The room was quiet at the moment; they were all carefully mulling it over. Thirty percent. This was a number they were a little unsure how to express their feelings about. If you were to say... it was too much, it was actually much less than the minimum 50% cut proposed by the Kodak Family. But to say they were happy, that wasn't necessarily true either. After all, having to give away real money to someone else would make…

Chapter 569

by karlmaks — After Deputy Chief Duke left the Kodak family manor, he immediately made a phone call to Chief Bruce. "I'm out. Is this all that's needed?" "Yes, this is enough. You might have to make a few more trips in the next few days. Things will be over soon." "Okay, just let me know when." "I'm off to handle other things." The major cleanup was nearing its end, but it wasn't completely finished. He still had a lot of work to do. He was actually very curious, but he also knew to only ask questions he…

Chapter 548

by karlmaks — The meal lasted for more than two hours, and it was clear they had all had too much to drink. The most common thing people do in adversity is to reminisce about their glorious past, and memory can thus become a potent poison. The recollection of the past made all three of them show some true feelings, including Bandy. He had indeed been having a hard time recently. As soon as he thought of the past glory of the Five Families, a desire to return to the past would well up in his heart. But the…

Chapter 527

by karlmaks — After Charlie emerged from City Hall, several plainclothes "candidate chiefs" in the parking lot immediately dropped their cigarettes and stood up straight. Faced with these scorching gazes, Charlie savored the moment. This was why he was willing to accept a clearly insulting nickname like "Hound" and fight his way to the top. If you have never been trampled on by others, you will never understand the joy and satisfaction of trampling on them. He nodded slightly. "Alright, I don't know who the…

Chapter 559

by karlmaks — His heart was pounding as if it were right next to his ear. Stone lowered his head and drew his pistol from its holster. He looked around; it seemed there were people and gunshots everywhere. In the alleys on the side of the road, from the windows on the second floor, the continuous muzzle flashes left him completely unsure of where to return fire. His reason told him that if he stayed in the car, the outcome would be terrible. What he needed to do most right now was to get out of the car, find a…

Chapter 538

by karlmaks — "Have any of you heard any news?" On the lawn of a large villa in the Bay Area, several gentlemen were sitting, enjoying the beauty of spring. The gentle sea breeze no longer carried the grimness of winter or its biting cold, only a tenderness full of life. It's hard to find an exact word to describe the wind blowing at this moment, but it was gentle, like the hands of a young matron. The hands of little girls are either too light or too heavy; only those of young matrons have just the right…

Chapter 570

by karlmaks — The sounds of police officers talking, things being moved, and the "squeak squeak" of glass being wiped could still be heard from outside the villa's main hall. There were many noises around, but at this moment, in this place, in the living room, it seemed to have fallen into a different kind of dead silence. Stone's cousin glanced at the rifleman who was still staring at him even in death, and slowly turned his head to look elsewhere. "Maybe you're braver than you think?" Lance sat with his legs…
