The sky gradually darkened, and the bustling avenue began to be lit up one after another.

Many shops have already hung up the magic guide nightlight early to illuminate the inside of the store.

The night in Julu City is more prosperous than the day.

The bustling streets were filled with hurried figures with their own concerns, and they were silent, each walking towards their destination.

It's a chaotic zone, a place outside the law, where everyone can get what they want, as long as they pay a price for it.

Some people got rich overnight here, and some people were left on the side of the road, dragged away by scavengers, stripped of their clothes, and thrown into the river.

Two young men walked side by side, smiling along the side of the shop, their strange hairstyles and skull tattoos on their necks clearly indicating that they were members of the Skull and Bones Guild that ruled the neighborhood.

Passers-by avoided them and leaned cautiously to both sides.

One of the men, with several earrings on his ears, put his hands in his trouser pockets, twisted his head, and spat casually, which happened to land on the clothes of a passerby.

The passer-by was about to get angry on the spot, but after seeing the skull tattoo on the other party's neck, he still forcibly suppressed his anger and walked away quickly with his head down.

"It's really boring, I thought I would say at least two words. The man with the earrings said disdainfully.

"The person who talked back to you last time was cut off by you and ran away crying. His companion said disdainfully.

It wasn't until the two of them walked around the entire neighborhood that they slowly came to a dim alley.

The two swaggered into the alley, and the man with earrings couldn't help but complain, "Really, why have you been sending us out on patrol lately, could it be that someone is still rushing to make trouble on our territory......?"

"Hey, hey, look over there, the fun is coming. Before he could finish speaking, his companion excitedly pushed his arm against his arm and pointed not far away.

A tall woman leaned against the wall of the alley, her face could not be seen in the dim light, but she could still see the intriguing figure in the distance.

She leaned against the wall with her head slightly raised, a slender cigarette in her hand, and the flame on the cigarette butt was extinguished as she swallowed.

The two swallowed their saliva, walked up impatiently, and tried to put on a crazy and cool pose in front of her, "Beauty, it's so late, why are you hanging out here alone?"

After getting closer, the two of them saw her perfect figure under a thin black leather coat, and suddenly even breathed a little heavier.

Hearing the voices of the two, she slowly put down the cigarette and turned her head to look at the two. The red lips opened slightly, and a faint smoke spewed out, choking the two of them and coughing a few times, "Of course I came out to have fun, but unfortunately I am not familiar with this area, and I haven't found a place to be happy for a long time." ”

Her voice had a hint of seduction, full of the smell of a mature woman.

The two of them felt their qi and blood surging up, and hurriedly said: "It's not easy to have fun, we skeletons will have everything, and you can't walk happily." ”

The man with the earrings smiled wickedly and said with bad intentions.

"Then what are you waiting for, take me quickly, I can't wait~" She casually snuffed out the cigarette and threw it on the ground, smiling at the two.

"Okay, come with me, I'll take you there. The two of them surrounded her, one after the other, and walked through the dimly lit alleys, and soon came to a gate carved with a small skull.

Wow.

He knocked heavily on the door a few times.

A small window was opened on the door, and a vigilant look poked out from behind, "Charles, why did you come back early, didn't you let you go on patrol?"

The man with the earrings waved his hand impatiently, "The patrol has long been over, and nothing has happened." Open the door, I've brought a first-class chick over today. ”

After speaking, he turned his body to the side, revealing the bewitching figure behind him.

The breath behind the door was a little heavier, and after a few moments, only a click was heard, and the door slowly opened.

After walking in, there is a wide hall, dimly lit, some people are playing cards and chatting, some people are fighting wine, and from time to time there is unbridled laughter.

Seeing a tall beauty walk in, everyone's eyes instantly widened and they got up and surrounded them.

Seeing everyone gathering around with bad intentions, she showed a bright smile, stretched back one hand, hooked the door handle and slowly pushed.

Syllable.

The door was slammed shut.

......

The night was spent in the chaos of bloodshed and wailing, but this did not affect the bustling scene outside.

Everyone who tried to run out of the alley and take refuge in the street was dragged back mercilessly, leaving only a shallow trail of blood on the ground.

Decater and Annevia acted alone with their own strength, and the remaining five people worked together in two or three people, constantly sweeping all underground casinos, prostitution houses, and black markets.

Although Green didn't say it explicitly, according to the unspoken rule, whoever has the most turf will be able to pick a bigger turf when the time comes.

Although it is said that they should choose a piece of land for themselves, if they really don't know how to occupy a territory that does not match their own strength, they are afraid that they will be cleaned up by their companions on the spot without Green's hands.

The sun rose and the bloody night passed.

As the sun sets, a new day is ushered in, and the number of people walking around the streets gradually increases, and everything is as usual.

The top floor of the martial arts hall.

Green was the only one standing on the empty floor, standing alone by the wall, looking down at the scenery downstairs through the glass mirror.

Last night's killing didn't seem to have any effect on the bustling area, and it was still bustling, with no one realizing that the sewers beneath their feet were stained red with blood.

But compared to the circle drawn by Green, the area of last night's sweep was only a small part of it.

After staring silently for a moment, Green turned back to his chair and picked up an envelope from his desk and played with it.

The fine cowhide envelope is printed with a delicate pattern, and the bottom is written by the Commercial Department of Billance, and a delicate seal is stamped next to it.

The envelope was thin and didn't hold much.

Green casually shaved off the clay, opened the envelope, and pulled out a piece of paperwork from inside.

On the gilded hard paperwork, there are several words of tax exemption certificate printed on it, and there is a sprinkled text below, to the effect that in recognition of Green's contribution to Julu City, the martial arts hall opened by him is specially exempted from taxes.

The martial arts hall is not a profiteering industry, and the income on the surface is not high, and it can't collect a few taxes. The fact that Bellens sent this tax exemption certificate was just a gesture of affection and icing on the cake.

Poru introduced him to the person of Bellens very early, he was very slippery, never offended any forces, and had dealings with various forces. Originally, this type of wall grass type of person would have been cleaned up early, but he was an exception, and he has been caught in the major forces like a fish in water.

"Quite an interesting person. Green put the tax exemption certificate aside and leaned back in his chair to close his eyes and recuperate.

There are a few people with a keen sense of smell who seem to have sensed that this area has changed.

Moros has been running a jewelry store in the Chaos Zone for more than a decade. It is not easy to run such a long business here, he is quite business-minded, and he has accumulated some fame for more than ten years, and his business is also very prosperous.

Of course, the most important thing about being able to open a store here for more than ten years is that he understands the rules, no matter which gang is in charge, his protection money is never in arrears, even if two gangs fight, he will send two protection fees.

Today, as is customary, the day when skeletons come to collect protection money. Originally, early in the morning, the people of the Skull and Bones would be the first to come to him and take the heavy bag he had prepared. However, when the time came, there was no one to be seen.

He was also keen to find that the members of the Skull and Skeleton Society, who were always hanging out on the side of the road, did not appear today.

Raising his head and glancing at the clock, he felt a little apprehensive in his heart.

"Did you forget or something?"

He remembered that there was a time when the people of the Skull and Bones Society were so drunk that they forgot about the protection money, and the next day they found that no one came to hand it in, so he was angry and collected two months' protection money at a time.

Moros thought about it for a moment, put a bag of gold coins in his pocket, told his men to take care of the shop, and headed alone towards the skull and bones club's lair.

Skeletons can be cunning, and there are several strongholds in this neighborhood. Only an old man like him knows where their real nest is.

After a long journey through the winding alleys, Moros finally found the door engraved with the skull mark in his memory.

Determined, he reached out and tapped lightly on the door.

Waited for a while, but there was no response.

He frowned, "Are you all drunk again?", and knocked heavily on the door a few more times, only to find that the door was a little loose.

After hesitating for a moment, he pushed hard and walked in.

In the dimly lit hall, there was a strong smell of blood, the ground was covered with corpses, and the members of the Skull and Bones Society of the past fell to the ground with their eyes open, their faces still frozen in fear.

He looked straight at the center of the hall, where a beautiful woman sat at a small table, with her feet resting on the table, revealing a pair of slender legs. Holding a wine glass in his hand, he tasted it quietly.

Hearing the voice, she turned her head, with a hint of drunken blush on her pretty face, "Who are you?"

"I ...... I'm here to pay the Skull Society's protection money......" Moros swallowed and replied cautiously, for fear of offending the strange woman.

When the woman heard this, she just waved her hand casually, "Go back, collect the money, someone will come to collect it in a few days." ”

Moros nodded quickly and ran out quickly, not daring to stay for a moment in the hall full of corpses.

......

A week passed quickly.

"Director Billens, it's really early, please rest for a while. ”

Green smiled and stood at the door of the martial arts hall to greet the visitors, and there were already personnel arranged next to him to entertain the guests.

Outside the martial arts hall building, it was already crowded with people who came to sign up, but they were stopped from a distance.

It didn't take long for heavyweights such as Poru and Count Blue Whale to arrive, and luxurious carriages stopped outside the martial arts hall.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Green led everyone to the outside of the martial arts building. In the midst of all the attention, Green looked up at the weather, the sky was clear, nodded with satisfaction, he stood outside the martial arts hall building and said a few words, and then carried out the ribbon-cutting ceremony with Poru and a few people.

With the completion of the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the people who had been waiting on the roof of the building immediately lifted a long piece of oilcloth, and several large characters composed of magic guide tubes slowly rose on the roof, even in the daytime, it still exuded a dazzling light, which was clearly visible thousands of meters away.

"Baiyun Martial Arts Hall".
