-Elder Miss, aren’t you going home now? Nine Master is really worried about
you.”
“I have something else to do. You guys go back.”
“Shouldn’t we leave some guy?”
– Do I need your protection? By the time you arrive, there wouldn’t even be a body left to find. Tell the Old Man about the situation, and stop the fighting for now. I have something else to handle tonight, you guys go back first.”
Seven Brown gave a few orders.
Only then did the members of the Flood Gang leam what occurred, breathing a sigh of relief simultaneously.
If a fight really broke out, Sinless City would be thrown into chaos tonight.
It’s a good thing that the matter was revealed early.
The members also knew the seriousness of the situation and must return to the city to deal with the conflict that had already ignited.
They also knew the temperament of the Elder Miss, and no one dared to speak more once she made a decision.
The roar of the motorcycles echoed, and these thousands of people disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Only a jeep was left at the scene.
As soon as the people left,
the surroundings quieted down.
Seeing Seven Brown, who was limping, trying to hail him, Leonard Churchill
took the initiative to go out.
Glancing peripherally, there seemed to be someone in the dark.
At this moment, Seven Brown had already worn a mechanical exoskeleton, so there was no big problem with walking.
She opened the car door, generously inviting, “Let’s go. Get in the car. I’ll treat you to some food.”
Leonard Churchill also walked over, put on his gas mask, but his gaze was always on the window.
Catching this point, Seven Brown said with a little surprise, “You found Uncle Smith? Don’t worry, he is my father’s confidant and is here to protect me.”
Hearing this, Leonard Churchill didn’t say more.
The Flood Gang is the first underworld gang in Sinless City, and there are numerous real masters in the gang.
The person hiding in the dark just now was at least a Third Tier assassin.
The car drove towards Sinless City.
Having grown up in a gang, Seven Brown had a good grasp on the ways of the world.
Although they didn’t know each other for long, she knew Leonard Churchill wouldn’t like noise.
The car didn’t head towards the bustling area.
“What do you feel like eating?”
“Anything will do.”
-If you don’t mind, 1’11 take care of a little business along the way.”
“Hmm.”
Leonard Churchill realised he was hungry as well, eating something would be good.
In a short while, they arrived at a crossroad in East Bennett Street.
This was the territory of the Flood Gang and also a civilian area.
There were several large factories here, employing tens of thousands of workers.
Therefore, there were many food stands outside.
It was midnight now, and not meal time.
There weren’t many people in the food shops.
Born and raised in a gang, the Elder Miss wasn’t a noble lady and held no sense
of entitlement.
Even if she wasn’t short of money, she would be happy eating at a roadside
stall.
Seven Brown parked the car by the side of the road.
Looking at the signboard of “Nine’s Roasted Beef”, she said with a glint in her eyes, “This is the shop I’ve been eating at since I was little. The taste is great. Then, she glanced at Leonard Churchill and added another sentence, “I thought you would mind.”
“No. It seems good.”
Of course, Leonard Churchill didn’t mind.
On the contrary, he felt that this feeling was much better.
He also didn’t like the pretence of courtesy and hospitality.
The shop window was filled with the enticing aroma of cooked meat.
The shop owner was a small old man with white hair, a scar on his face, faded tattoo under his collar, but the once sharp gaze had been smoothed by time.
“Elder Miss. You’ve come? The usual roast beef?
“Yes, Uncle Bear. My friend would also like a serving, a large portion please.”
“Your friend is quite a handsome young man.” He laughed.
Listening to the tone of their conversation, an unusual look crossed Leonard Churchill’s face.
Ever since he came into this world, it has been all about fights and killings.
This was the first time he felt such an ordinary care.
It felt like the concern and greetings an uncle would have for his nephews and nieces at home.
From their conversation, it was evident that Seven Brown and the man called Uncle Bear were quite close.
Upon hearing the greeting, Leonard Churchill vaguely guessed why Seven Brown had come here.
Soon, two plates of fragrant beef were served.
As Uncle Bear got closer, he noticed the blood stains on Seven Brown’s clothes and expressed his concern, “Elder Miss, are you injured?
Seven Brown, who seemed to have not heard him, kept eating heartily but asked an unrelated question, “Uncle Bear, how many years have you been in
the gang?”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Bear looked puzzled, but he replied anyway, “Almost thirty years.”
Seven Brown continued eating her meal seriously, “Indeed, it’s been a very long time. I grew up eating your food. No matter how good the food is elsewhere, I never thought it tasted better than the food you cooked.”
Seeing her unusual mood, Uncle Bear guessed something had happened and asked, “Elder Miss, I heard from the gang that there was a disturbance. What happened?”
Without pausing, Seven Brown replied nonchalantly while eating, “I was set up. They used a Gu bug. I almost died.
Her tone was so indifferent, as if she was talking about someone else’s business.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Bear froze, realising the seriousness of the matter. Seven Brown’s tone remained calm, and continued, “Uncle Bear, I know it wasn’t you. Your wife and her godson, Xiaoliu, recently lost several million at the Brother Association’s gambling stand and were pressed to pay their debts. I helped them a few times, but they didn’t stop playing and piled up bad debt… I’ve thought of all the possibilities in the past few days. They’re the only ones who could’ve planted the Gu bug on me…”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Bear’s face instantly turned pale.
He himself was a member of the Flood Gang, tired of the violence, he used the money he had hard-earned to open this shop..
