Chapter 27: A Wolf on A Hunt
At Night
Like the previous nights, the city of Avalerion was again covered by the darkness of the night. Lights adorned every side of the street and nightlife began to emerge.
On a corner of a dark street, criminals were gathering, indulging in sins.
Traffic jam, Hakkasan Bar.
The fox walked into the bar. His red hair stood out even under the dim light. The loud metal music could make people's ears hurt, but he was used to this. He also danced to the song.
Other patrons were dancing on the dance floor. When the fox broke through the dance floor, his right hand squeezed a woman's butt. When the woman turned around, the fox was nowhere to be seen.
With a smile, Nick welcomed the fox who came to him.
"Hey old friend." Said the fox while throwing some money at him.
The waiter then brought them two glasses of wine and took the money.
"Looks like you managed to do a great job." Nick said.
"So true." The fox invited him to a toast and took the two small bags that were on the table.
"What else are you doing this time?"
"Just a minor matter related to my group's work." The fox drank his drink again.
"Who is your target this time?"
"I better not tell you so you don't get involved."
"Ha ha ha! Good, good, that's right." The two of them laughed and left the table, the fox then walked alone to the room behind the bar.
After entering the room and closing the door tightly, the fox took out the contents of the small bag and took a sip.
"This is kicking!" The fox then closed his eyes and felt that he was floating above the sky with the angels.
"This place always has the best stuff." The fox praised Nick. He then closed his eyes again but he felt something strange.
He then opened his eyes and lifted his head, he saw that a stranger was already in front of him. This person was standing alone with a rather terrifying flat face.
He then rubbed his eyes, 'Is this a hallucination?' Didn't he make sure that this room was safe beforehand and that only himself was in it?
As the fox rubbed his eyes again, the man asked, "How? Is it good?"
"Not bad... Hey who are you?" Subconsciously the fox answered his question but he immediately became suspicious of this person's identity. After he got a better look, this person was holding a knife in his hand!
"Then, I'll make your day even better!" Ryan approached the fox with a broad smile. But the fox felt that Ryan emitted a very dangerous aura.
"I will kill you first ..." The fox then took the knife that was beside his seat and slashed towards Ryan. The sound of his war roar sounded loud before finally not being heard again.
His hand that was swinging the knife suddenly grasped tightly. One second later, the fox's face tightened. The sound of bones being crushed was crunchy and an excruciating pain immediately followed. His war roar had turned into a groan of pain.
However, just as the fox wanted to scream out to vent his pain, his head had already slammed on the glass table in the room.
Duak!
Luckily, the glass table didn't break but now the fox's body was crushed by the man from behind.
"How? Did you kick it already?" Ryan straightened his clothes and stepped on the Fox's back.
The fox had blood coming out of his head and looked pitiful.
"Who are you?" The fox spat out a mouthful of blood and smiled, "What kind of bastard would dare to come here and threaten me?"
Ryan smiled and said, "Hahaha .. you're pretentious but look at you. This bastard only needs one move so he can kill you."
Silence…. There was only silence.
"Okay then, if you want to be strong and still want to prove yourself then we can postpone my questions first." After Ryan's words were finished, the Fox's body was already thrown away.
With just one hand, Ryan threw the Fox against the wall. But before he crashed, Ryan grabbed the fox's arm hard. With a loud sound, the Fox's shoulder blades dislodged from their joints.
"Arrrgh!"
The Fox was in great pain and covered in cold sweat all over his body. His pretentious voice had become a sad moaning pain.
Ryan smiled and said, "Why? Is your hand okay? Here I'll help you."
The fox who saw Ryan approaching immediately panicked. Ryan then just pulled out his thumb and pressed hard on his shoulder blade.
"No! Stop it!" The fox felt that he had met death. His arm was numb and the joint that was pressed hard by Ryan tortured him. He hoped that this enemy would kill him soon.
An effective way of getting people to talk was to cause them pain and fear. Ryan knew that The Fox was not the real mastermind so he needed information.
"Hey, don't worry friends, that was just an appetizer. In a moment I'll give you the main dish." At the same time, the Fox's index finger had been broken by Ryan.
"Please stop it!" The fox wanted to get out of here as soon as possible. His scream for mercy was truly sad.
Hearing this, Ryan asked again, "What's wrong? Isn't this more kicking than your medicine?"
The fox took a deep breath. From Ryan's eyes, the man already understood wouldn't be over soon. When this man grabbed his middle finger, the Fox cried out for mercy, "Please do not! I'm not strong anymore! I will say everything you want to hear." The fox began to fear that he would lose his life.
Still in a position to trample over and crush the Fox, Ryan asked, "Was it you who acted at the Avalerion company this afternoon?"
The fox nodded.
"I want to hear from you." Ryan stuck the knife next to the Fox's face.
"Our group did it." Said the Fox hastily, he didn't want to anger this person.
"Who told you to do it?"
The fox hesitated to say it, but he saw Ryan take the knife and was about to swing it at him, "That's my boss, my boss told us to do it. We cannot refuse because we are his subordinates."
"What's your boss's name?" Ryan asked, "Don't make me ask you again!" He demanded.
"Our eldest brother is named The Tiger. We are from Dead Man Inc. We have taken over 1/5 of the entire city. The attack on the Avalerion company came from the orders of our oldest brother. He ordered some of us to come over there and destroy everything."
The Fox said that in just one breath, he was now panting. Seeing Ryan's eyes, he had realized that his life was in this man's hands so he didn't dare to do anything wrong or lie.
"Where is your base?" Ryan asked.
"Not far from here, 1 kilometer from here. That's where our headquarters is." The Fox answered him.
"Take me there." Ryan then stood up, lifting the man.
"Ah?" The fox was getting scared again. He did not want his group to know that he had told this man everything.
"Don't worry, today the name Dead Man Inc won't be heard again in this city." Ryan said in a relaxed tone.
Not far from there, a big man with a thick mustache sat in his room. He looked like a pirate.
In this building, there were more than a dozen elite people from the Dead Man Inc in their all black clothes. Inside the big man's room, a man was lying motionless on the floor. He stared absently at the Dead Man Inc boss with his head bleeding.
"Bah, who said that the Dead Man Inc can only play cunningly and secretly? If it weren't for me leading this group, the Dead Man Inc wouldn't have been in this town for a long time."
The Tiger took a deep breath, "Tell me Nick, am I naive or innocent? The underground world is a despicable place. I as the leader of the Dead Man Inc was disappointed with your performance. It's better if you don't have to be in a world like this and just raise your children. It's more suitable for a weak guy like you!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The entire Dead Man Inc laughed too.
"Don't you ever think that I can eat you alive? Your little gang is pathetic." The tiger stood up and lifted Nick, "I just don't want to tarnish my name by facing anchovies like you. You and your gang are both pathetic."
"Ha ha ha!" Nick laughed too, "Is that true? If my group is weak why are you ganging up on me? Isn't it because you guys are afraid of us?"
The man next to him immediately kicked Nick and the Tiger approached and grabbed his head to lift Nick, "Anchovies like you dare to say pretentious in front of me? Better hurry up and tell me where you got your medicines! If you say it then I will set you free."
Nick roared back in pain but his gaze still looked fierce, "If you guys want my stuff, sorry I forgot where I got it."
Tiger also took out a piece of paper and showed an address to Nick. Seeing the address written on the paper, Nick's face immediately changed.
"We have our own laws regarding how we do business in this underground world. You dare to break it?" Nick said in a gloomy tone.
"Hahaha who cares about demons and things like that." The tiger understood what Nick meant and just laughed.
"Okay, I'll tell you where I got my stuff." Nick's face was filled with resentment. He then looked closely at the Tiger's face. He vowed to take revenge.
"Then hurry up and say it."
