826 Red Bridge Club (2-in-1)
North.
The dark Dodge Challenger, speeding down the streets.
Driving along the clean and tidy avenue, Ethan made a few turns before slowing down slowly.
The Red Bridge Club, just around the corner.
There are no high-rise buildings here, and the streets are lined with quaint buildings of seven or eight storeys.
The building is not small, unusually large.
The vehicles coming and going are all luxury cars, and the people in the cars are all brightly dressed.
The Dodge Challenger is here, looking different.
The street vendors and homeless people that are commonplace in the South Side are completely nowhere to be seen, and from time to time you can see one or two women running through the streets in sportswear, which is unimaginable for many people in the South Side.
"I'll ask you a question."
Ethan tapped the steering wheel, his eyes swept to the side, "Are you ready?" ”
"Ah, what preparation?"
Erin was still playing with her watch, took two selfies on her phone, and replied casually as she looked at the photos on the screen.
On Facebook, there can be more material.
The wonder of life lies in sharing.
Thinking of this, she laughed happily.
"About this club."
Ethan scratched his face and said in a dry voice, "It's special, you know." ”
"I know." Erin put away her smile and squirmed unnaturally, "It's just work, but I don't have contact with others." ”
With that, she glanced at Ethan quickly.
"Of course."
Ethan nodded and hurriedly said, "If there is anything embarrassing, just let me come." ”
"We're mainly looking for information."
Just kidding, this trip is to come to find someone, how can it be possible to let Erin go and do that kind of thing with someone else.
Dirty work, tiring work, isn't that all done by men?
Thinking of this, the corners of Ethan's mouth couldn't be controlled, and he turned up slightly.
"Bastard."
Seeing him like this, Erin secretly cursed.
But there will definitely be some embarrassing things happening later, but fortunately, it was this guy who came with me.
Thinking of this, Erin twisted her fingers.
Scanning Ethan's face, her heart racing.
After a while, the vehicle came to the target address, and from the outside, it was unremarkable.
The dim sconces on the exterior wall illuminate the vines and foliage more green, and this building is some years old.
There are no signs, not even a name.
However, the front porch, as large as the hotel, was covered with a red carpet, and several security guards in black suits were scattered among them.
Ethan turned the steering wheel and drove up the slope.
When they saw the Dodge Challenger, several security personnel blinked, this car is rare here.
"Sir."
Surprised, surprised, but someone still walked over quickly and helped open the car door: "Good evening." ”
"Thank you."
Ethan flicked his hand and threw the key over:
"Don't scratch or bump."
This car is his old baby, if you scratch the flowers, you have to feel distressed for a long time, Ethan commanded, and handed out a fifty-dollar card between two fingers.
He didn't know the level of consumption here.
However, a parking tip of fifty dollars is definitely a lot, after all, the maximum face value is one hundred.
If there is money, there is money, and if you don't think about it, rich people will not throw money around.
"Okay, no problem."
Several people on the porch were both security guards and part-time parkers, and the black suit smiled and accepted the tip, and said yes.
However, he did not rush to get into the car, but stood still.
It wasn't until Ethan helped Erin out of the car and closed the door that he sat in and drove the Dodge Challenger away.
"Let's go."
When Erin was on her feet, Ethan put his arm around her waist, and the two of them walked together towards the front revolving door.
The starting point is quite smooth.
"Hey."
Ethan leaned into Erin's ear and whispered, "I didn't expect you to look so fierce usually, and your waist is quite soft." ”
"Get out."
Erin blushed and wrung it on him.
There were two or three pairs of guests like them on the porch, man, there was nothing to say.
None of the women are bad.
It's all above the level.
Beauty is always used to embellish money and power, and people who can come to this place to play are not bad for money, and there is no shortage of beautiful women around them.
I'm embarrassed to come to this kind of place to play and bring someone below the level.
Ethan and Erin are two people, handsome men and beautiful women.
Because of his profession, he has a lot more vitality than these people, and he looks energetic and energetic, which naturally attracts a lot of attention.
Walking through the revolving door, the lobby on the first floor is luxuriously decorated, however, it is empty.
Only at the entrance of the elevator, there are a few female staff members, and there are cameras all around, which monitor the place tightly.
"Good evening."
One of the bright-eyed staff members saw the two of them coming, bowed with a smile and said, "Welcome to the Red Bridge Club." ”
She casually looked at the two of them, and then smiled and pressed the elevator switch.
The ground floor, which seems to be just a place for reception.
There is no information in this at all, and now it can only be a move, Ethan took Erin and walked into the elevator together.
Surprisingly, there is only one button on the second floor inside.
Ethan pressed his hand casually, and his body moved slightly with the elevator, and before he could come back to his senses, the elevator door opened immediately.
Above the second floor, it looks like a business club.
Exquisite screens, bogu shelves, and greenery naturally divide the place, and all kinds of extravagant decorations are available, and many people are dining or gathering in groups.
Amid the leisurely music, the men chatted in low voices, chuckling from time to time.
All of them are well-dressed and look like upper-class elites.
It is completely different from the appearance of his imagination to indulge in lust, which makes Ethan slightly surprised.
However, he quickly reacted, no matter how powerful he is, he always needs to cover up on the surface and set up a torii, otherwise how can he look high-end.
"Hey."
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, a woman in a professional skirt walked over: "I'm the manager here, Grey." ”
Black hair and a high nose.
There was a sparkle in his eyes, as if he could speak.
The panache of the whole person is very strong woman.
The three of them shook hands, and Gray motioned for Ethan to follow, and under her leadership, several people sat down in a booth next to them, surrounded by greenery, and the privacy was first-class.
As soon as I sat down, someone brought me three cups of coffee.
"Both."
Grey's legs were folded, and the smile on her face was very natural: "If I'm not mistaken, you must be here for the first time." ”
"That's right."
Ethan picked up his coffee and took a sip.
"It's an honour for us at the Red Bridge Club." Grey smiled and said unhurriedly, "We're a social club, I don't know where you found out. ”
"However, we have a certain barrier to entry."
"I don't know you two?"
"Is it okay to just have money?" Ethan put down his glass and leaned back in his chair: "Then the standard of your club is not very good." ”
The Patek Philippe on his wrist disappeared in a flash with the movement of placing the cup.
Although the time was short, Grey could see it clearly, and the rose gold watch in the hand of the female companion next to her was even more revealed.
Erin drank her coffee quietly, not expecting Ethan to come up with such a sentence.
This bastard is not afraid of offending people.
"Actually, you're in luck."
In the face of Ethan's ridicule, Gray was not angry, she smiled and said: "In order to provide better service, our club will soon increase the qualification for membership. ”
"Next month, we're going to raise the bar."
"You need to have a joint recommendation from more than five members to have a chance to qualify for membership in the Red Bridge Club."
"Not bad."
Ethan tapped his fingers on the armrest, "So, what do I need to provide?" ”
Proof of assets, it's a breeze.
The more than $40 million in Julius Baer has not been touched yet.
Many billionaires can't have a cash flow of more than $40 million on their bank cards like he does, and with this money, no matter how much scrutiny is enough.
For the rest of the intelligence group, it was easy for Ethan to solve it.
Of course, he wouldn't be stupid enough to put all his money out, a fool would do this, and it would be enough to have a few million assets to prove it.
Then there is the physical health examination report.
This thing, of course.
Ethan and Erin were both prepared and provided tests one by one.
In fact, this manager Gray is right about one thing, this is a social club, although the way of socializing is a bit shocking, but the essence is the same.
There are quite a few people who want to come in even if they break their heads.
Especially those who have a small net worth of a few million, come to this kind of place and can quickly make a very large network of wealthy people with similar interests.
After getting acquainted with it, it's not like a fish in water to do anything.
No matter who is behind the Red Bridge Club, they are very smart.
Mastering such a social club is equivalent to mastering a very large force.
Actually, it's the Brotherhood set.
"Mr. Morgan."
The various verification procedures were quickly completed, and Gray came over with a small wooden box: "Congratulations on becoming the one hundred and eighth member of our Red Bridge Club, this is your badge." ”
Dark gold, like a little sun.
In the middle, an all-knowing eye.
A pin on the back, nothing unusual, is mainly used to identify people.
A few people passed by just now, and some of them had such a gadget pinned to their collars.
It's small, but it's expensive.
Half a million dollars, that's just one year's dues.
Compared to this, the proof of assets of five million dollars can only be regarded as pediatrics.
This membership fee can make some small rich groups retreat.
Ethan scolded in his heart, this trip was really a loss to his grandmother's house, if he played like this in every case, he would not be worried about running out of cash.
Erin, who was next to her, tried her best to keep a smile on her face.
When she paid the dues just now, she almost didn't jump.
This money, she knows, Ethan should not expect reimbursement from the police department, there is not the slightest possibility.
It's no wonder that the judge would refuse to issue any search warrant, and the person who can afford to spend such money is not something that a department of the Chicago Police Department can afford to investigate.
The most important thing is not one, but a group.
"Thank you."
Ethan scratched his fingers with the omniscient eye on it and asked with a smile, "When we socialize, shouldn't there be a lot of omniscient eyes watching?" ”
"Mr. Morgan, you're kidding."
Grey chuckled, "Don't worry, we're not stupid and don't do stupid things. ”
Mastering this kind of platform, as long as it is managed well, not to mention monetary gains, this kind of relationship network alone is a terrifying existence.
Video threats, which is the lowest level of play.
"That's right."
She took another sticker out of the small wooden box and carefully applied it to Ethan: "This is the logo of the new member, trust me, you will love this logo." ”
The manager, Gray, gave a brief introduction before getting up and leaving.
As a female companion, Erin would not have these things.
"Hey."
Seeing the strong woman manager walking away, Erin hurriedly grabbed Ethan's hand and whispered, "Just now, were you crazy?" ”
"That's half a million, we can think of other ways."
"It's fine."
Ethan patted the back of Irene's hand and winked at her, "I have money, don't worry about me." ”
If you have money in your pocket, you will have enough confidence.
No matter how much money you have, if you don't spend it, it's just a pile of waste paper, and it's not bad to use 500,000 yuan to open your eyes.
The thought he was annoyed with just now was instantly figured out.
Some high-end golf courses have a membership fee of tens of millions, and they can't go into holes.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
This expression also made Erin feel in a trance, as if his face was emitting a layer of golden light.
The degree of handsomeness has increased by a few points.
"Okay."
At this point, it was useless to think more, Erin reined in her thoughts: "What are we going to do now?" ”
"To the Red Bridge."
Ethan swallowed and said in a thirsty voice, "It's time to go find this Terry." ”
Not only to find Terry, but also to find a way to find out who Layla has more contact with here.
Those people are all important objects to pay attention to.
According to the manager just now, the upstairs is the real Red Bridge, and it is impossible to enter without membership.
"Hmm."
Erin nodded lightly and stood up with her arm around Ethan.
His face became more ruddy than before.
Her mood was not as anxious as before, and the manager had just told them that the female companion in this place could normally refuse the invitation, and it all depended on her heart.
This news also made Erin breathe a sigh of relief.
Under the guidance of the staff, the two went to the elevator on the other side, Ethan shook the badge, and the four security guards standing next to the door relaxed their vigilance, smiled and nodded, and helped them press the button.
Inside these people's suits, the handle of the gun looms.
In terms of security, it is leaky.
The two walked in, and in the elevator, there were only two buttons again.
One down, one up.
Even the floors are not clearly marked, and the security and privacy can be said to be the extreme.
Ethan exhaled softly and pressed the buttons.
The elevator doors closed quietly.
