Chapter 392

by karlmaks — The matter of the police collecting money didn't originally start with the police actively collecting it, but with the operators actively giving it. The rate of gang turnover was too fast. So much so that you could pay a protection fee in the morning, and by the afternoon, that gang would be finished. Then the new gang that took over would demand that all the shops in the area pay again. No one could withstand such a hassle. In an era when the police could still stop evil, people could only place…

by karlmaks — "I heard you had a little problem over there." William stood facing the full-length mirror while Emily helped him adjust his clothes. These were all clothes personally made by the old tailor, fitting him perfectly. Although the old tailor was not yet famous in the Federation... But he was indeed capable, otherwise the nobles would not wear the clothes he made. William, carefully groomed in the mirror, looked as if he were several years younger. He looked at Lance through the mirror. Lance…

by karlmaks — "Mr. Lance, I know this is asking too much, but we're really out of options." An old man, who looked to be in his fifties, stood before Lance. His back, bent by life and this recent blow, made him look not so well. He was very thin and wore a gray cap. "I no longer have the ability to work. I've been looking for a job recently, but... no one is willing to hire me." "All my life savings were in the bank. I could have lived on those savings, but now..." His voice choked as he spoke, "I've lost…

by karlmaks — A thin mist had surprisingly risen on the sea at night. Compared to the surprise of Lance and his group, McCock and his men seemed much calmer. Having seen it for decades, they had long since gotten used to it. The sound of the waves attacked their nerves day and night, accompanying this treacherous and ever-changing yet season-in-and-out sea. Many people who don't often see the sea always have a feeling of being refreshed when they come to the sea, as if the space between heaven and earth has…

by karlmaks — The manager stood upstairs, holding the phone and looking at the growing crowd below. He dialed the dockworkers' union again, but Vaughn still wasn't there. "Damn it, he disappears whenever he's needed. Are we paying them all that money every year just to support a bunch of people like this?" The manager slammed the receiver back onto the phone's base. With his hands on his hips, he paced back and forth by the window, his eyes fixed on the swelling crowd of workers below. From his vantage point,…

As an enforcer, he had actually done many things for the Bay Area alongside Charlie. He knew very well that the Bay Area didn't care how you did it, only whether you achieved the result they wanted. Pulling out now was tantamount to failure. In the past,…

by karlmaks — Mr. Jobav doesn't just have a big house; his bank is also a big house, and it even has a dedicated vault, which Lance actually quite wants. "You... cough, speaking of Jobav, what happened to him?" Lance said casually, "He's probably going bankrupt. He's selling his previous things to the banks, but the banks won't give him any inflated prices." "So perhaps we have a chance to get some things from him." Morris was a bit amazed and emotional when he heard this news. "For people who have lived…

Chapter 435

by karlmaks — The two pretty girls at the front desk bar were chatting about some new items in a fashion magazine. These trendy things were a favorite among girls. Who doesn't want to be fashionable? To become fashionable, they could sleep with a man they'd known for less than five minutes, or they could shed the clothes representing their shame for a film fee and strike alluring poses in front of the camera. Perhaps at first, they weren't quite used to it, feeling a bit shy and embarrassed. But once they…

by karlmaks — Steven looked at the young man sitting in the back seat, watching as he pulled a pistol from his pocket, but he showed no expression or emotion of fear. "Listen, young man, I don't care what your name is, put your weapon away." "I know the boss of the Black Blood Gang, and the bosses of many gangs in this city. If you hurt me, I guarantee, every one of them will find a way to find you, and then make you pay the price!" The young man behind him did not put his weapon away, nor did he speak, just…

Chapter 318

by karlmaks — Countless people had already gathered outside the main gate of City Hall. They were shouting something in alarm. A large number of police officers had already rushed here, forming a wall outside City Hall. They held small round shields and wooden batons, and some of them already had their hands on their holsters. Did everyone look particularly cold? Perhaps this word is not quite right because they were not facing those gang members, nor were they thugs, but their faces did indeed show a cold…
