Chapter 201: Unruly

~10 min read 1,901 words

Travis Everett's gaze was hidden behind his black-rimmed glasses, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

But he did not stop Lu Mian, as if he had become a pure bystander.

Baron Brignier and "Blood Palm" Black and others were all surprised by Lu Mian's reaction, unable to believe that he actually dared to splash coffee on "Black Scorpion" Luo Jie in front of the superintendent, destroying the mediation.

Especially the former, who even had a feeling of recognizing this former subordinate and current colleague for the first time:

Is he many times more unruly and crazy than I expected?

Can't stand any grievance, doesn't want to pay any price?

Although he tried to push all the responsibility to "Black Scorpion" Luo Jie and the others, anyone with a brain and eyes could see that he started the dispute first, and with strong subjective will.

Clearly, he didn't want to reconcile; he just found an excuse to destroy Superintendent Everett's proposal.

Isn't this slapping Superintendent Everett in the face?

This person is a powerful figure in the Market District. If he reports slightly exaggeratedly, no, if he reports according to the real situation, he can make the official Beyonders notice the few leaders of our Sawa Party and pull all our businesses up by the roots!

"Bald" Harman, who was angry and furious, didn't give Lu Mian a chance to smash the coffee cup at the Boss. He took a step forward, bent down to grab the edge of the coffee table, and threw it at that hateful guy.

Amidst the sound of clattering, one cup after another fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, while Lu Mian dodged in time, pulled out a black revolver from under his armpit, and aimed at Harman amidst the movement of heavy objects falling and chaos.

"Bald" Harman was so angry that he laughed instead:

"You country boar, don't you give Superintendent Everett face, don't you want to accept mediation?

"Alright, our Sting Gang will play with you, play until one side completely exits the game!

"Shoot, you are so arrogant, don't give Superintendent Everett face, have such ability, just shoot!"

If it weren't for the election involved during this period, the official authorities were watching very closely, their Sting Gang would have long ago found an opportunity to assassinate Xia Er!

At this time, "Black Scorpion" Luo Jie had already stood up, and black flames appeared between his loosely clenched fists and quickly disappeared.

In front of Superintendent Everett, he didn't want to expose what Beyonder abilities he possessed.

"Short Candlestick" Castina also stared at Lu Mian, posing a stance of making a move if the other party didn't soften their attitude.

Hearing "Bald" Harman's scolding and provocation, Lu Mian laughed lowly.

Bang!

He pulled the trigger of the revolver directly, letting a golden bullet shoot out, straight toward Harman's head.

"Bald" Harman completely didn't expect that Xia Er really dared to shoot in such an environment, under the gaze of so many people, after Superintendent Everett's warning, ignoring all rules, just wanting to kill him.

This made him almost fail to dodge, his pupils dilated rapidly, and he squatted down abruptly.

That bullet grazed Harman's shiny scalp and flew past, hitting the wall a few meters away, bouncing into the bathroom attached to the booth, with a clanging sound.

Under the stress, all gang leaders stood up, and "Black Scorpion" Luo Jie and "Short Candlestick" Castina locked onto Lu Mian, about to make a move.

Lu Mian didn't stop, lowered the muzzle, and aimed at "Bald" Harman again, with no emotional fluctuations in his eyes.

"Enough!"

At this moment, Superintendent Everett made a sound.

This carried an indescribable authority, combined with his own identity, making even Lu Mian instinctively stop his finger from pulling the trigger.

"Bald" Harman took the opportunity to change his position and stood up.

Although others maintained a stance of confrontation, there was no longer the atmosphere where a conflict was about to break out just now.

Lu Mian, who lost the opportunity, put away his pistol regretfully and turned to Everett:

"Superintendent, I am willing to agree to your request, but they seem not to want to."

Superintendent Everett's gaze hidden behind his black-rimmed glasses flickered slightly. He stood up, looked around, and said:

"Discuss the conflict between you after the election ends.

"These three days, these three days all of you be peaceful, otherwise you are enemies with me, Everett. Believe me, this is something you cannot bear."

Although this superintendent spoke in a deep voice, his tone was calm, without anger, and without arrogance, but revealed a few points of sincerity.

But everyone who had stayed in the Market District for more than two years remembered a term at the same time:

"Valia Party."

Two years ago, the status of the Valia Party in the Market District was about the same as the Sawa Party, but it was because they didn't give Superintendent Everett face and repeatedly violated his words that they were officially jointly acted against and completely eradicated. The Sting Gang was able to rise later because there was a certain power vacuum in the gang world of the Market District.

Now, only this Valia Cafe proved that such a gang once existed.

The leaders of the Sawa Party, Sting Gang, and two other medium-sized gangs were silent for a few seconds, responded to Superintendent Everett's words one after another, and indicated that they would try their best to restrain their subordinates and not let the election be destroyed.

Superintendent Everett's gaze swept across everyone's face, didn't say anything more, and walked straight toward the booth door.

After his back disappeared at the door, "Black Scorpion" Luo Jie, "Bald" Harman, and "Short Candlestick" Castina looked at Lu Mian coldly and also left the cafe.

The leaders of other gangs didn't stay either. Soon, only the Sawa Party people remained in the booth.

"You were too impulsive just now." Baron Brignier smoked his pipe and looked at Lu Mian.

Lu Mian smiled indifferently:

"I have been waiting for an opportunity like just now, unfortunately, I didn't grasp it, didn't manage to provoke the conflict."

Seeing that "Giant" Simon, "Blood Palm" Black, and others all showed expressions of confusion, he explained calmly:

"We have already tested twice, and the Sting Gang chose to endure. Just as the Baron said, they have big problems and are waiting for the timing. And I believe that won't take long.

"If we don't beat the Sting Gang completely before then, just wait for their crazy revenge. By then, none of you will be able to escape.

"Just now, the Sting Gang only had three people, while we had a full five. 'Red Boots', your strength won't be much worse than 'Black Scorpion', plus my help, we can definitely suppress him. Baron, Simon, Black, don't you think you can't deal with 'Bald' and 'Short Candlestick'? You can even spare one person to block Superintendent Everett.

"As long as the Sting Gang dares to fight back, we dare to let them all die here!"

—"Rat" Christo was warned by Superintendent Everett last night and was not invited today.

Baron Brignier and "Blood Palm" Black and others felt that Xia Er's words actually made some sense, and at the same time, they felt a few more points of fear for this guy from the bottom of their hearts.

He wasn't bluffing just now; he really wanted to kill "Bald" Harman and the others!

He was really too crazy, too extreme!

Bold enough, unscrupulous, capable of doing anything!

"But this is also equivalent to slapping Superintendent Everett in the face. It will be very troublesome later." "Blood Palm" Black shook his head.

This was also Franca's thought. She also wanted to remind Lu Mian that this would lead to him not being able to stay in the Market District, and maybe he would get another wanted poster.

But considering that other leaders were also here, she couldn't expose the actual friendly relationship between herself and Lu Mian, so Franca closed her mouth again.

Lu Mian curled his lips and laughed, asking "suspiciously":

"Wasn't Superintendent Everett killed by the Sting Gang?"

Madman... Almost everyone in the room had such a thought flash through their minds.

Baron Brignier rubbed his peach-colored pipe and said:

"This is hard to hide from official Beyonders; it's just an excuse."

"Then forget it, you can push all the problems onto me, this madman. I can at most leave the Market District. I believe the Boss will arrange other things for me after I avoid the limelight." Lu Mian smiled calmly.

This was indeed part of his true thoughts.

Mr. K's task was to let him gain Gardner Martin's trust, not to let him run the Breeze Dance Hall well and gain a firm foothold in the Market District!

His provocation just now, if it could really anger "Black Scorpion" Luo Jie and the others, he believed Franca would definitely provide help. And as long as one Sawa Party leader stood on his side, others wouldn't dare not to act. By then, with their combined strength, there was indeed a great hope of getting rid of the three remaining leaders of the Sting Gang.

After clarifying the Sting Gang's plot later, Gardner Martin would definitely appreciate his adventurous and radical behavior of getting rid of hidden dangers. In this way, even if he lost the Breeze Dance Hall and was forced to "flee" again, he would just hide in another place in Trier and continue to work for Gardner Martin until he gained his complete recognition.

And this matter was also beneficial to Lu Mian. After the Sting Gang made preparations, the first to retaliate would definitely be him. If he didn't solve the problem in advance, he would be even more dangerous. Later, even if "Lady Moon" sent another bunch of people, he wouldn't worry because he had already hidden in another place. And Louis Lund should arrive in the Market District today. As long as the deaths of "Black Scorpion" Luo Jie and the others were temporarily suppressed and a fake calm was forged, he could even wait for his target at 126 Market Avenue.

These people weren't like parliamentary candidates; dying wouldn't cause a very big stir.

After the few Sawa Party leaders were silent for a few seconds, Baron Brignier reminded him while walking toward the door:

"You should have already been remembered by Superintendent Everett. After the election, there will be quite a few troubles."

Lu Mian responded with a smile:

"Maybe he will mysteriously disappear one day."

After speaking, Lu Mian calmly endured the slightly terrified gazes of "Giant" Simon and the others.

Look, with the previous foreshadowing, now saying anything casually could make everyone believe it.

…………

At 3:15 in the afternoon, Lu Mian took a public carriage to the Botanical Garden District and saw the Mason Cafe again, located in a beige four-story building with many green plants wrapped around the outer wall.

He passed through the outer corridor supported by pillars and entered the interior with dark green walls and windows, sitting at the familiar booth d, and took off the wide-brimmed round hat on his head.

"A cup of Intis coffee." He ordered the waitress and waited patiently.
