"Hahaha…. Right, right, this gentleman here has some problem with his head. Poor him! Psst!" Then he clicked his tongue, acting as if sorry for him. "Others?"
It was like a chain reaction as one by one, they all made up some cock and bull stories about their medical ailments and some bullshit genetic diseases, even Bobby the medicine genius had never heard about.
Their bullshit amazed him, and he even wondered in his head. "Woah, even if someone comes inside to hear their part of the stories, then there is no doubt that they could make them convinced with those expressions… No doubt these people here are the most successful 1% people of this Dwarka Exoplanet."
Bobby grinned from ear to ear and said, "Now, I understand why you all ladies and gentlemen are in this place in the first place. You all are here to...take some recreation, right?" He then added. "What a fucking piece of hopeless people….I mean, if I were you, then I might do something much beyond just gambling. Alright, let's do this correctly. You over there," he pointed at the first person, the old man, and continued. "Tell me this honestly, we are all honorable people here…. Did I kill someone here?"
"No, I see nothing." The quick-witted old man insisted.
"Oh my gosh, this is what I have been talking about. Where is the honesty, man?" Bobby quickly approached.
The old man trembled and took several steps back in fear.
"Uh, calm down. I'm just here to convince you of something here. " Bobby continued. "I don't care if you have some fucking eye problems or not. I don't give two shit about it. But the point is….what is your name?"
The old man replied, stuttering. "J-Josh-Joshua,"
Bobby padded on his back and continued. "Well, Joshua, tell me what is this?" He lifted the Lieutenant Governor's bloody head just before his face.
Joshua almost threw up, but he forced it down, covering his mouth and he said. "Sir, it's a man's head."
"Oh, Joshua, oh, Joshua,.... now I'm finally convinced that you have some vision problems… Then let me help you. This is the head of a pig that is disguised as a human in the body of a human." Bobby explained in a serious tone and then gazed upon all the others and continued, "Listen, you all scumbags, keep the stories of your illness to yourselves. I don't care. But, this.. " he pointed to the bloody head hanging from his hand and continued. "This is a fucking pig… So stop spewing any more nonsense here. And one more thing, I'm proud of killing this swine and I don't care a bit if you spread this news…"
He then clapped his hands and said with a cheerful smile. "Well-well, everyone, back to the game. I'll not be messing with you guys anymore... Hee-hee-hee, otherwise, someone here is going to keep giving me a cold dead glare here."
He then turned to Silla and asked, "Hey, what now?... Have you decided yet?"
Silla looked at him meaningfully once and started walking toward the wooden door and said, "Follow me."
Then the two left the casino through the shabby-looking wooden door.
Just after that, everyone inside the casino stopped holding their breath anymore and rushed out of the hall.
"This place is not safe at all. I'm never coming back to this place anymore… No, this will not do. I'm getting out of this fucking city." Joshua, the old man, said as they rushed toward the exit of the building.
"Yes, you are right. We are the fucking witness of everything happening in this casino for god's sake and there is no way Gentlemen's club will spare us. And in addition, the city's law enforcement agencies will be all after us soon." Another man added.
Unarguably, there would be quite a ruckus in the city within a few days, since it wouldn't be long before the Lieutenant Governor's office needed to be filled. The first thing those city enforcers would do is come after people who were close to him and who spent more time with him.
Silla led Bobby inside her office and asked him to sit down first.
"Are you done pulling out your stun here? If not, then go on and slaughter and scare my customers off as you please." She asked suddenly as she passed a cup of black tea to him.
"Alright, Miss Silla, I will stop beating around the bush. Now, I need you to carefully answer some questions for me." Bobby then took a sip of the tea and placed it carefully on the tray.
"I'm all ears." She replied as reclined on the couch facing him.
"Who and where is the leader of the assassins that attempted on my life these few weeks?" Bobby asked.
"Code Name: Mr. Spade, a former member of my assassin squads. Last known location, Sofia Resort, Suite no. 69, Southernmost region of the city, and I have lost his current location since three days ago." Silla recited.
Bobby sensed Silla telling the truth, the same feeling he got from interrogating Mia recently.
"My next question is, who is the dimwit? Oh, in your case, the very customer putting a bounty on my head?"
"I don't know exactly. I can't even get access to that kind of file…. It's the company policy. But I secretly tracked his line and found that it was coming from someone from your workplace. I deduce that he is someone close to you, or maybe a fellow employee." Silla replied, explaining patiently.
Bobby stood up and said, "That's all I need." He then pulled out a golden card, left it on the table, and started walking toward the door. "See ya! Thanks for the tea, though."
After Bobby was long gone from the hall, a blonde little girl appeared out of the thin air and stood beside Silla.
"As I said before, it's going to be like setting the Thames on fire to pull someone like him to our ranks, especially after what we have done to him before…. Forget it, Jo Jo, even if he agrees to join our ranks, he is not the type to follow our protocols here….. You have already seen too with your own eyes he even went too far as to kill a high-profile individual like Mr. Dunlap in our club. This is the first time an outsider came in and spilled someone's blood inside our building and later left boldly since the foundation of our Gentlemen's club." Silla explained, trying to convince the little girl. "I'm so sorry for you. It's the first time you enthusiastically sponsor someone and have to disappoint you like this."
"I understand, Silla." Jo Jo, the little blonde girl said and disappeared from the spot.
Throughout the whole episode, Bobby, who had caused a scene at the entrance, Lieutenant Governor's murder, and then him leaving the room after getting everything he wanted from this place, two men were watching it all while sitting on the top floor of the building.
"I like the boy! He is becoming more and more like his father…. no offense, I mean, his birth father." The Ogarian laughed as he glanced at the scene of the lanky youth inside the elevator, moving up on the screen.
"None taken. Yes, you are right, the boy is becoming more and more like my big brother." Jeremy replied and asked in a tone. "Sir Mo, did you bring my son here by giving him the golden card without my consent?"
"Nah, it is already hard to deal with you dragging you into this place… Honestly, he's the last one I'm going to give that card to. If I have to give a card, then platinum is the first thing that comes to my mind... I'm also fascinated that you suddenly accepted my offer to be a guest here. What changed your mind?" Jo Moriah explained and asked.
Jeremy reached into his coat and pulled out the red and thick hexagonal reverse scale of the Candle Dragon, tossed it high in the air and caught it as it fell, and then repeated the process again and again…. "It might be because of this… I tried refining it using by origin blood but could define only half of it and I sense a wisp of my big brother's origin blood inside the other half… meaning he is still alive somewhere…. And also from our little interaction, I have this gut feeling that I could trust you and you are a strange Ogarian…"
"Indeed," Jo Moriah chuckled and continued. "I'm a strange Ogarian…. Alright, now you are on my side, I'll tell you the main purpose for me to build this building as my main headquarter here in this Dwarka Planet in the corner of the Delta Belt Region. I have already told you about our Remnant Of Titan's Region and some of the long history, about Titan, Celestial, Devas, and Asuras leaving this place… Now, I'll tell you something no one knew about except for me and my father-in-law..... [Stay tuned...]
