Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The environment of the casino was extremely chaotic. Gamblers were shouting in a crude and ugly manner.
News that there was a beautiful woman at the roulette wheel quickly spread. Qiu Tong was slowly surrounded by drunk onlookers. After failing a few times, she only had a few chips left. The sleazy onlookers heckled her. “Beauty, stop playing!”
“If you lose again, I’m afraid you’ll have to sell your body to the casino! We heard that the casino recently detained a few female guests who didn’t pay their debts and forced them to become strippers next door!”
The crowd roared with laughter at the story. The men stared at her lecherously, roving their eyes all over her body.
Qiu Tong looked up indifferently and pushed the remaining chips onto the table. “No need to worry about me!”
The wheel slowly came to a stop. Qiu Tong lost again.
The dealer took away all her chips and said apologetically, “Do you want to continue placing more bets? If you don’t have any more chips, you have to leave your seat as soon as possible to give others a chance.” Qiu Tong could see just how ruthless the casino was. She glanced at the president’s guard who had sneaked into the gambling den with her and rubbed her ears. It was their secret signal..
The guard caught her signal and raised his voice. “Beauty, do you have anything valuable on you? You can pawn it in the casino!”
“You can redeem it after you earn back your money. Don’t give up!”
It was easy to instigate the other gamblers. They all echoed the guard’s words and even suggested things to Qiu Tong.
“The necklace you’re wearing looks pretty good…”
Another guard approached her and pulled out the ring hanging on a chain hidden under her leather jacket. The ring with the Vulture Organization’s logo was exposed to everyone for about three seconds. Qiu Tong timed it precisely before stuffing the ring back into her clothes. “Don’t touch it!”
“You’re not worthy!”
Qiu Tong then downed her drink and staggered out of the casino.
In a corner of the casino, a few people stood up and exchanged glances with each other before following Qiu Tong…
…
In the dark and narrow alleyway outside the Sent Bar, Qiu Tong slowed her footsteps until she heard faint sounds behind her.
A fist flew towards her, bringing with it a gust of cold air. Qiu Tong quickly bent down to dodge it. Stepping off the wall, she used the momentum to soar into the air and grabbed the other party’s neck with her legs, dragging him onto the ground. “Do you want money? Or sex?”
A mocking smile appeared on her lips as she continued with killing intent in her eyes, “No matter what it is, provoking me tonight will be the death of you!”
Qiu Tong squeezed her legs together, wanting to strangle the burly man who had attacked her.
However, four to five burly men rushed in from both sides of the alley. Seeing that the situation was not good, Qiu Tong took out a dagger that she carried with her and pulled the man up from the ground. She placed the sharp blade against the artery of his neck and said loudly, “Are you guys in cahoots? Don’t come over! Otherwise, I’ll kill him…”
The hostage held by Qiu Tong suddenly laughed and said hoarsely, “Good moves.”
As the dark clouds that blocked the moonlight dissipated, Qiu Tong saw an obvious scar on the burly man’s left eye. His pupils were dark blue and they looked a little strange when they moved. Taking advantage of her distraction, the burly man grabbed her knife and pried it away from his neck.
Blood flowed down his palm and quickly formed a puddle on the ground.
The burly man seemed to not feel any pain as the others gathered around him. He grabbed Qiu Tong’s hair and pressed her to the ground.
“The ring you are wearing around your neck, who does it belong to? Where did you get it?”
The burly man questioned Qiu Tong. She could feel the bones in her arm being twisted, nearly to the point of being dislocated
Her forehead was covered in cold sweat from the pain, but she still gritted her teeth and cursed, “It’s mine! What do you care? Don’t even think about taking it away!”
The burly men laughed. They released Qiu Tong and she struggled to stand up, staring at them in confusion.
“We’re all part of the same family.”
The burly man tore open his T-shirt to reveal the tattoo on his shoulder. Qiu Tong’s pupils dilated as she tried to identify it. “You guys were also split from the organization?”
The burly men exchanged glances and pointed at the dilapidated wine house in front of them. “This place isn’t suitable for a long chat. Let’s go over there to talk.” Qiu Tong did not move but just stared at them. The burly man in the lead looked at her in surprise.
Qiu Tong pointed at the ring in his hand. “Give that back to me.”
Realization dawned on the burly man and he smiled. He threw the ring back to her. “I’m Bo Lang. What about you?”
Qiu Tong narrowed her eyes and followed them with a disdainful expression. She answered in a faint voice, “Sally.”
Everyone in the Vulture Organization used fake code names so Qiu Tong wasn’t afraid that they would investigate her. This was why she dared to toss out a fake name.
Bo Lang raised his eyebrows and smiled with an indifferent expression. “Your name suits you.”
When they reached the winehouse, Bo Lang arranged for two of them to stand guard outside. He led Qiu Tong past the corridor with lanterns hanging on it. When they reached the backroom, Bo Lang closed the door and looked at her with a smile.. The scar on his left eye was particularly eye-catching.
