Chapter 1147: Take action

The moment he walked out of the apartment unit door, the sunlight fell on the young man. He squinted his eyes and looked at the sun.

The sunlight was very warm. He originally thought that he would have some other emotional ups and downs today, for example, excitement, and for example, panic and anxiety, but in fact, he was extremely calm at this moment.

Calm as if he were going to do a very simple thing, just like... buying vegetables, or other ordinary things.

No too much expectation, no excitement, and no fear.

After he looked at the sunlight for a while, he turned and walked toward the place where he "worked." As a peripheral member of the Lan Si family, his main work every day was to be a "messenger."

"Messenger" is a relatively low-level job in a gang. To put it more simply, his work is to be responsible for running errands, sending things, and the like.

Because he has to shuttle back and forth to send things, he has the title of "messenger."

But in reality, this is a physical job.

However, the Lan Si family pays a high salary. Every month he can get about a hundred dollars in his hand. It sounds like a normal job.

He works, and then the company gives money.

It's just that the person who pays him is not the company's accountant or finance, but the family member he follows.

Below the ordinary family members, there are these peripheral members. He has to follow a family member to do things.

This is his work. Sometimes he would feel a bit ridiculous saying he is a gang member, but he is indeed serving in the Lan Si family.

He has money, but didn't buy a car. Buying a car from the family will have a very favorable price, because there is a casino here.

The Golden Casino and the New Jincheng Casino bring huge profits every year, as well as... collateral.

Those people who have red eyes from gambling won't care at all what things they just mortgaged to the casino. As long as they can bring them chips, they dare to sign on any contract.

This also led to the casino every day—

It is every day!

Receiving a lot of collateral.

Ninety percent of these collaterals will become the casino's property, because their owners very likely cannot redeem these things.

Watches, luxury goods, houses, and cars.

There are some second-hand luxury shops near the casino, which specifically operate some second-hand luxury goods. These luxury goods come from the casino.

Mo Lisi and the others hand over these things that won't be redeemed to family members to sell around the casino, and then they hand over the money from the sales to the casino, and finally calculate the income.

Besides these, there are a large number of second-hand cars, second-hand cars of various colors, from two or three hundred dollars to thousands of dollars.

If he wants to buy a car, with the identity of a peripheral family member, he only needs to spend about three hundred dollars to buy a very good car.

However, he didn't buy one, because the family provides him with a car, and sometimes having a car doesn't represent convenience.

Having a car, as long as he drives, he will be seen by the New Jincheng surveillance system that is everywhere. His whereabouts are almost impossible to keep secret. On the contrary, walking is the most correct choice for his current undercover work.

And he, every day, has to shuttle back and forth between some second-hand luxury shops and the casino, sending some goods to those second-hand luxury shops, and then taking some money back to the casino to enter the account.

Sometimes he will also be responsible for making phone calls or finding people to ask those gamblers if they want to redeem their things that have already expired. If they don't want to redeem them, then the contract will end.

But if they want to redeem them and don't have money in their pockets, then they can continue to borrow money from the casino to redeem their things. Of course, the price might be greater.

In short, from the perspective of a law enforcer, these are all means for gangs to exploit others, and he participates in them.

But to say how much it violates regulations, actually it is not necessarily. Because the whole process has signed contracts, and everything is legal.

He ran to the place where he worked. His "boss" was already leaning against the car smoking, chatting with two girls who looked only seventeen or eighteen or nineteen years old.

Lan Si family members are very popular among these girls who have just entered society, because if they follow a Lan Si family member, they don't need to worry about being bullied when they play outside.

Whether it is going to nightclubs, bars, or other entertainment venues with gang participation or dishonest people, as long as they tell others that their boyfriend is a Lan Si family member, then everyone won't harass them.

The reason why the Lan Si family has such a reputation is purely because some people used their lives and blood to compose the rules!

"My brother is here. We will chat tonight. When the time comes, I will drive to take you to play and see. I guarantee you will like it!"

The young man's boss said goodbye to the two girls, then walked over and hugged the young man's shoulder very naturally, "You were a bit late today, but it doesn't matter. We don't have a strict punch-in system, as long as you don't disappear casually."

"Now, start work!"

"This is your work this morning. I let Xiao Ka follow you."

Xiao Ka is another peripheral member, just twenty years old, and is a young man full of yearning for a gang career.

He is a local, an imperial immigrant, and joined the Lan Si family through someone, becoming a peripheral member in the inspection period.

For imperial immigrants like Xiao Ka, their "probation period," which is the time in the periphery, will end faster than those federal people or non-imperial immigrants.

What Xiao Ka talks about most is helping the family defeat their enemies, killing those Five Great Families, and letting the Lan Si family become the greatest gang in the federation, no one else!

This is perhaps the thing that many young people in this age group who participated in gang work love to fantasize about most. They become "key men," become big shots, can get more money, possess higher status and influence. There are so many such young people that it is almost impossible to count.

The young man nodded, "Okay..."

Just like this, a whole day of busyness started. They need to run around often, for example, a second-hand luxury shop calls and says they need Amen's wallet of a certain style.

Then the young man and his little follower Xiao Ka must call everywhere to inquire. Other second-hand luxury shops, and even the casino, have such things.

If there are, they have to run over to take the things back, and then send them to the designated second-hand luxury shop.

It sounds like this is a very simple job. In reality, it is not only very tiring, but sometimes it also needs to use violence.

For example, some time ago they experienced such a thing, which is also the reason why De Li Ke felt a trace of fierceness from the young man.

A shop needed Amen's handbag, and it just so happened that there was one at the casino, and the condition was very good.

So they went to the casino to get it, but this bag still had two days before the contract time expired. In order to satisfy the needs of the shop, they had to find the owner of this handbag.

Coincidentally, he lived in a room above the New Jincheng Casino. Afterward, the young man took Xiao Ka to find this guy.

He had lost all his money. The reason he could live in the casino room was purely because he lost enough, and the casino gave him a few free hotel vouchers.

This kind of voucher can let him enjoy the casino's hotel service for free, which is also a kind of promotion.

Some gamblers don't live in them themselves, but will sell these vouchers to tourists at a relatively cheap price to exchange for gambling capital to re-enter the casino. Such things happen often.

But this guest's attitude was very arrogant. He not only refused to end the contract in advance, but also cursed the young man and Xiao Ka, as well as the casino and Lan Si, with very bad language.

Cursing Lan Si on Lan Si family's territory is actually no different from looking for death.

The young man might not have moved his hand immediately because he was a law enforcer, but Xiao Ka, who took Lan Si as his life goal and idol, directly punched his way.

The two of them taught that bastard a lesson in the hotel, and he was beaten very miserably.

He dared not not move his hand. If he didn't move his hand, maybe Xiao Ka would tell others about his abnormality, and he might be exposed.

Although he hated Lan Si and the Lan Si family, it didn't mean he wanted to die.

So this is not a very easy job.

Of course, not just them, because there are at least seventy or eighty such shops in the entire New Jincheng, spread throughout the entire New Jincheng, and even in Xigu City, there are more than twenty shops, sometimes needing to transport to that side.

This is a very prosperous business. Many gamblers who won money will buy some second-hand luxury goods here to experience and enjoy, but it won't be long before these things will reappear on the shelves in the shop, because those gamblers lost money in the casino again.

Win money in New Jincheng, spend money in New Jincheng, don't even think about taking a cent home!

A whole day of work ended at seven o'clock in the evening, but this doesn't mean the whole work ended, but the young man's work ended.

"This is today's money, send it to the casino as soon as possible."

The young man looked at the handbag in his hand, heavy, with about ten thousand dollars inside, as well as some other things.

He nodded, then carried the handbag to the back of their car, opened the trunk, and threw it in.

There were already seven or eight such handbags inside. This is the part they are responsible for collecting money.

Next, if there are no other things, they send these handbags and the money inside to the casino, and their work is considered finished.

After the work is finished, they can enjoy a rich dinner in the casino's buffet restaurant, can play two hands, and then go to nightclubs, entertainment venues, bars, and other places to mix until midnight, and then go home.

This is the life of a gang member for a day. You want to say how attractive it is, I'm afraid it's not necessarily very attractive.

But you want to say that it has no attraction to young people, it seems it's not necessarily, because Xiao Ka likes this kind of life very much.

The day is full of sense of responsibility, and also very fulfilling. At night, he releases emotions in the bar and enjoys everything.

"Hurry, hurry, I can't wait, there are two beautiful girls waiting for me!"

The boss sitting in the back seat was shouting there. He was thinking about the two young girls, and as for whether he could succeed tonight, it depends on whether he can show his full strength later.

The young man took a deep breath, closed the trunk heavily, and then walked around to the outside of the second-row car door and opened the door.

His boss, although very strange why the young man wanted to sit in the back seat today, was just strange for a while and didn't think deeply. Everyone is a brother of the family, and he would never feel that these two people would harm himself.

The car started to move. Xiao Ka in the driver's seat was driving very seriously. He had only learned to drive for less than two months, and it was the time when he was addicted to driving.

No matter where they go, basically they will let Xiao Ka drive. This kind of young man who actively adds work content to himself is indeed likable.

The boss sitting in the back seat was talking about some fresh things that happened recently, and at the same time imagining how to take the two girls home. Just when what he was thinking and what he was saying were different, when he was distracted, a "sorry" that made him unable to understand suddenly came to his ears.

He turned his head and looked at the young man with a full face of curiosity, "You just said 'sorry'?"

"What did you do?"

The answer to him was not the young man's answer, but the weapon in his hand.

Small-caliber weapons are becoming the "standard configuration" of the Lan Si family, because there is almost no too much sound, and it is equally fatal at close range, becoming a weapon that the family relatively relies on.

It won't cause much noise, which won't produce huge negative social impact.

While other gangs are pursuing larger calibers, the Lan Si family started to pursue low noise, which is indeed extraordinary.

Accompanied by a "puff" sound, the car window glass shattered. A bullet hole suddenly appeared on the glass showcase of a shop that had already closed on the side of the road, and the cracks covered the entire glass showcase in an instant.

Xiao Ka, who was sitting in the driver's seat and driving, didn't know what happened yet. Just as he was about to look back, a metal cylinder with a trace of heat pressed against his head, "Listen to me, drive toward... here."

Xiao Ka was very nervous and also very afraid. He asked while driving, "Did you encounter any trouble?"

"You can completely tell the family, there is nothing we can't solve!"

"You don't have to be like this. If they find you, you will die very miserably!"

The young man didn't speak, just used the weapon in his hand to press Xiao Ka's head hard, "Don't say these things I don't want to hear, just drive, otherwise I don't guarantee I won't kill you!"

Xiao Ka didn't speak, just drove silently. The atmosphere in the car was very heavy, and it was also spreading with the smell of blood.

After a while, Xiao Ka asked, "Did you kill him?"

"Um."

The young man answered this question, "He was sitting beside me. If I didn't kill him, it would be too dangerous."

Perhaps it was because he felt he could communicate, Xiao Ka asked again, "Why do you want to do this? If you are short of money, you can tell me, you can tell the family, we have special funds used to solve your trouble!"

Lan Si had considered this problem. Most of the gang members are on a dead salary. They will also encounter some trouble, or their families will also encounter some trouble. In short, it is possible that the money they need in a short time exceeds their affordability.

In this case, gang members might cast their eyes on family industries. After all, criminal business makes money very fast, and they don't feel bad about using this money.

Lan Si doesn't hope that family members have to be executed and honor-killed because of such small things, so he formulated a series of rules.

As long as family members indeed have places where they need to use money and can't afford it themselves, then the family can completely help them pay this money.

As for paying it back, there is no interest, and they can pay it back slowly, even if they pay it back for a lifetime.

The Lan Si family might be the "enterprise" with the best welfare treatment in the federation, no one else.

So Xiao Ka felt confused about the approach of his "brother" at this time. He really couldn't understand why he wanted to do this. This clearly didn't intend to live anymore!

The car soon came to the suburbs. In the plan, Xiao Ka cannot die. If he dies, there will be no one to report the news.

So the young man drove him off the car, gave his head a hit, and then drove away himself.

Covering his head and looking at the blood in his palm, Xiao Ka immediately ran to a nearby telephone booth and dialed the phone to Mei Luo.

Mei Luo was watching TV. From the time TV walked into people's lives, it played a very important role. It almost became an important reliance for people's boring time in the evening.

The suddenly ringing phone bell made Mei Luo have a premonition of some bad things. He is responsible for the family affairs in New Jincheng now. With the "tranquility" of New Jincheng now, it is impossible for a phone to be dialed directly here at this time.

He first turned off the TV, then came to the phone, picked it up, and then his expression became serious.

A few minutes later, the motorcade left the manor, and ten minutes later, arrived at the scene of the incident.

The wound on Xiao Ka's head had already been bandaged. Not far away, there was also an ambulance. Inside the ambulance, a person was lying on the stretcher, but covered with a white cloth.

Clearly, this unlucky guy was really unlucky to the extreme, completely through.

Mei Luo came to the stretcher, lifted the white cloth, and took a look. Although he didn't quite know this person, clearly, the serious expressions of the people around him told him that this person was indeed a family member.

He came to Xiao Ka's side and said, "Tell everything that happened, no matter how detailed the things are, even if it is the situation you feel is a bit wrong."

Xiao Ka repeated it very detailedly, but couldn't hear anything wrong. Mei Luo asked about some things again, confirmed that there was no omission, and started to arrange for people to pursue.

The entire New Jincheng, the entire Laizhou, has a very strict surveillance system. Soon someone reported that they saw that car beside a certain interstate highway.

A rough movement trajectory appeared in Mei Luo's brain.

He arranged for people to go to the place where that young man lived to see if there were any discoveries, and on the other side, arranged for people to pursue this young man...
