Chapter 1928: Chapter 1928: Western District

After figuring out their agreed ti, Xu Huo withdrew his psychic power and focused his attention on the building he lived in.

Most of the people who enjoy nightti activities are now sleeping. These individuals are generally physically robust and not quite at the bottom of society. When they sleep, the nearby residents, whether elderly or children, dare not make too much noise. Especially families with children, since there are no schools in the Western District and children usually stay ho until they can run errands on their own. If they make noise, adults will cover their mouths.

However, not all children are at an age where they can listen. Just three minutes ago, a baby on the second floor started crying. The sharp sound would be piercing even during the day, disturbing a Big Man living nearby. He ca out shirtless with a knife and pounded on the door, making a thunderous noise. Although the baby’s family didn’t answer the door, the crying soon quieted down.

The Big Man cursed as he walked back, and before closing the door, he yelled outside, "If anyone dares to make noise again, I’ll kill him!"

These words had an intimidating effect, and the nearby residents beca even more cautious.

After Xu Huo had tidied up his place and sat down to rest, the woman next door ca over to knock on his door.

Xu Huo opened the door a crack, "What’s the matter?"

The woman smiled broadly, "I’m your neighbor. Neighbors should look out for each other. I noticed you just moved in and haven’t got your pots and pans sorted out yet. If you don’t mind, take this; it’s the lunch I made."

Xu Huo glanced at the simple yet generous serving of rice, "No need. I’m eting a friend for lunch."

The woman seed slightly disappointed but continued, "I live next door. If you don’t have ti to cook, just let

know in advance. I can cook for you if you cover the cost."

Xu Huo nodded and then closed the door.

After she left, he went out again, this ti to eat. He chose a stall near the nightclub he had visited before.

After eating, he saw a fruit cart passing by on the street and asked the vendor where the market was.

The stall owner pointed him in the right direction, and Xu Huo headed to the nearby market along the street.

By this ti, the nightclub boss was already on his way. He wasn’t going to et with the frozen goods factory but was heading back to his place to get money.

One layer of his safe was filled with precious tals, another stacked with Paper Money from Yuquan City. He swept out half the Paper Money and hesitated a mont before taking out a box hidden behind the tals. Inside was a thumb-sized Ruby, with impeccable luster. Clearly a treasured possession of his, he painfully clenched his teeth as he put it in his bag.

After packing up, under the protection of his n, he headed out again, turning into a bathhouse.

The bathhouse boss was an elderly man with a face full of wrinkles, limbs not very dexterous. He was checking the accounts with the help of a beautiful woman.

After being checked, the nightclub boss approached the bathhouse boss, informing him that a shipnt of "fresh goods" from a month ago was hijacked by Heyue Winery.

The owner of Heyue Winery was his rival; the bathhouse boss ran a pleasure business. His bathhouse housed many won, with "goods" referring to young won bought or hijacked from elsewhere. Last month, the transport was attacked, with so people escaping and others killed, which infuriated the bathhouse boss as he pursued who had done it.

The nightclub boss not only provided evidence but also offered the Ruby, "Heyue Winery almost killed my n. I can’t swallow this. When the ti cos, I hope Knife Boss won’t be hard on my people."

This was setting the stage for a confrontation with the enemy, bribing peers in advance, ideally drawing a third party into the fray.

Knife Boss was quite interested in the Ruby, examining it intently under the light. A mont later, he said, "I won’t get involved in your dispute. I’ll settle my own scores with Heyue Winery."

Reassured by this promise, the nightclub boss smiled in relief. At this mont, Knife Boss stuffed the Ruby into a woman’s mouth beside him. She giggled lightly, and a faint sound was made as the gem clinked against teeth, before she spat out the shattered gem.

Knife Boss laughed heartily, pinched the woman’s chin to open her mouth, showcasing her tal teeth to the nightclub boss. They weren’t just regular teeth; as the woman moved her Human Tongue, a shallow layer of blades erged on the exposed tooth surface, spinning rapidly under her control.

With the blade spinning, the woman couldn’t close her mouth. Her smile beca strained, and she couldn’t help drooling, but as Knife Boss hadn’t spoken, she didn’t dare stop.

"A woman’s body can be a weapon. Unfortunately, the last fool shredded his own throat with his teeth. This one is smarter."

Knife Boss patted the woman’s cheek, signaling her to retreat, adding, "I don’t like others consuming my property. Understand?"

The nightclub boss was both happy and shocked, "I don’t want Heyue Winery’s land; Knife Boss, feel free to take it."

Having reached a consensus, soone knocked on the door. The nightclub boss wisely left as another person followed the bathhouse staff inside. It was the woman who rented a room to Xu Huo earlier.

Upon entering, the woman knelt on the ground, head lowered, "Three newcors are in Supervision Departnt. One just rented a room from . He wore a Supervisor Departnt watch terminal but didn’t have a gun. He didn’t seem like a Player."

"I’ve seen the other two from afar. One seems like a Player. After leaving Supervision Departnt, he inquired around many places and quietly handed out money, using our currency."

"Players, huh..." Knife Boss took a drag on his cigarette, eyes narrowed, "Players and we, well, we don’t ddle in each other’s affairs. As long as they don’t bother us, we don’t bother them. Provide whatever information they want, but don’t breathe a word to the Supervision Departnt. Each one sent off is one less hassle for us."

The woman silently nodded and retreated.

Knife Boss returned his focus to the accounts, but being of age, he didn’t notice a missing piece of the scattered gemstone on the table.

Xu Huo casually pocketed the gemstone shard he had just obtained, exited, stopping two children running toward him with a hand. He took out an orange from his pocket, "Take this and don’t run around the streets."

The children looked at him confused but accepted the orange, dividing it between them.

Xu Huo turned and left. The other kids on the street didn’t follow him but instead ran to the fruit stall, where they shared the orange with the two children. The fruit vendor seed a bit regretful, "I should’ve charged him more earlier."

Xu Huo, carrying a few not-so-fresh but still edible oranges, headed back to his place. On the way, he received a call from Lin Guang reminding him he had forgotten his gun.
