Shadow Empire

Chapter 270 Mysterious Medicinal Wine [666+11]
After watching two movies in a row, the two walked out of the cinema. Patricia was still immersed in the twists and turns of the plot.

Lance doesn't like this kind of plot very much. Although tragedy can elevate the plot, it will not be the favorite of most people.

Facts will prove that people spend money to go to the cinema not to seek unhappiness. They hope that the ticket price they paid for can bring them happiness and laughter rather than sadness and depression.

After coming out, Lance took a long time to convince Patricia that all this was fake and was just created by the screenwriters to make people cry.

"If you have the chance to see them, you must beat them up!"

"They made me cry for a long time!" The girl wiped her tears with a handkerchief, her eyes still red, "Do I look a little bad?"

Lance shook his head, "It's still beautiful."

Patricia burst out laughing, the smile returning to her face, "You're so nice, Lance."

She took Lance's arm and they walked aimlessly on the street. "Tell me about your work?" she asked.

She was also very interested in Lance's work. Lance picked out some things to say, "We introduce jobs to the poor and illegal immigrants so that they can live in the federation."

"If it weren't for us, many people might have frozen to death this winter. I'm not saying this to show how great I am. I just want to tell you that although some people may think I'm a gangster, what I do is something that even the federal government may not be able to do."

He also mentioned that the cinema includes filming of movies and so on. In short, there are many things, very diverse. Patricia listened with some curiosity, "The newspaper said that you would have gunfights. Is that the case with you too?"

Lance did not deny it. Sooner or later she would know this. People cannot and will not be naive forever, unless they are pretending.

As she gradually matures, she will understand these things. Instead of letting her feel that she has been deceived in the future, even if it is a white lie, it is better to tell her directly.

"Yes, there were gunfights, shootouts, injuries, and even deaths."

The girl's arm around his arm began to gain strength, and she held him tightly, "Are you going to get hurt too?"

Lance shook his head slightly, "No."

She didn't believe it, "That's impossible."

"Because the goddess of luck is protecting me!" Seeing that Patricia still looked unconvinced, Lance held her face in his hands and said, "You are my goddess of luck. You will protect me from harm..."

After a while of intimate communication, the girl covered her hot face, feeling shy but also very comfortable.

Kissing is a very effective way to relieve anxiety and create happiness.

This is a beautiful era because everything is still so simple and plain.

If nothing unexpected happened, Patricia might have entered a new life tonight, but the problem was that an accident happened.

As Lance was thinking about where to go for dinner that night, Hiram emerged from the crowd.

Lance waved at him, and Patricia was curious, "Is this someone you know?"

He had never seen Hiram and thought he was a little weird, but of course he wasn't going to say it out loud.

"This is Hiram, the brother of the family. Although he looks a little stupid, I swear, he is definitely not stupid."

Hiram rolled his eyes and reached out his hand to shake Patricia's, "They are all lying and jealous of me."

Patricia couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. At least Hiram didn't give her the impression of being the gangster that people were talking about.

Fierce, evil, violent, yet revealing a kind of... simplicity of a country farmer.

But she seemed to understand that Lance might have something going on in the evening, which made her very disappointed.

This time I came out actually prepared to devote myself. It should have been romantic and tender, and it was like this until this moment.

Lance took her to the movies, shopping, and said sweet words to her like marshmallows, but that only lasted until this moment!

"If you have something to do, I can go back first."

She tried not to show her disappointment, and Lance smiled, "Sorry, but if things are over quickly, I'll come see you in the evening."

"Remember to leave the windows unlocked!"

The girl smiled in surprise, "Are you really coming?"

"Yes, I promise!"

Patricia blushed, but luckily the sky helped to cover her face a little. "Then I'll wait for you..."

It wasn't far from where she lived, but Lance still took her back, and Hiram and the others drove.

A few minutes later, Patricia sat on the sofa with a look of disappointment, holding her face in her hands, in a daze.

Emily came and sat down next to her, a little curious, "What's wrong?"

Patricia didn't want to talk, which made Emily even more curious, "Did you have a fight?"

"No!", she said.

"Then why are you unhappy?" "Because he had something urgent to do and left first. We had originally agreed to have a nice meal in the evening and then go to some bars."

Emily became interested. "Let me know next time you go to the bar. I want to go and see it, too."

"By the way, did you guys have... that this afternoon?"

"mom!"

Lance looked back at the closed door of Lawrence's house and drove out of the community.

"We found the bastard."

When Hiram said this, his voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

Lawn was a good friend of his. They were not from the same place, but they met while looking for jobs at the docks.

There is also Derisi and a few others. They have always had a good relationship and rely on each other.

If someone is being bullied, others will step up to help, and of course if someone can't find a job, others will buy food and share it with everyone.

Although life was hard, they also felt a very special atmosphere, just like a family.

Young people are always like this, they value friendship more than family. Although Lao En did not need to be hospitalized, he lost his ability to work for a short period of time.

The flesh that was pierced by the bullet could not be filled back, so the doctor could only cut off that part with scissors and try to keep some skin.

Then the skin and flesh were sewn together. In short, the whole operation was not simple. The operation alone cost two thousand five hundred yuan and took more than an hour.

The doctor said it would take at least three months to six months for Lawen's left arm to recover its normal function. Before that, it would be best for him not to do any strenuous exercise to prevent the sutures from tearing.

And even if it heals, he will have a period of discomfort due to the loss of skin and flesh...

In short, this made Hiram hate those people.

They had been looking for that guy for the past two days, until today, when a man in blue work clothes found traces of this guy in an underground bar in the port area.

"The Wolf Gang's bar?"

Hiram nodded. "Not sure."

Lance lit a cigarette. "Ask Bill. He must know about this."

Soon, Bill got feedback that it was not the Wolf Gang's bar, but a bar opened by a small gang in the port area called "Venom".

No one knows where the wine in their bar comes from, but everyone who has tried it says it's good, but the price is not cheap. What's strange is that even though the price is a bit high, there is still a fixed group of people who consume there.

Lance didn't have any friendship with the Venom Gang, but he didn't have any hostility towards them either, so the action at night would mainly focus on waiting rather than arresting people.

At this time, the Venom Bar has already opened, and many people have appeared around the bar waiting for the bar to open. The boss of Venom is mixing their drinks - drinks with painkillers added.

Ever since Venom's boss was shot, he developed an addiction to painkillers and magically came up with the idea of ​​mixing it with alcohol and selling it.

As a result, he succeeded in making the wine. Wine with painkillers added could make people feel more satisfied and also make them drink more!
Except for the occasional bout of temper, he is stable most of the time.

This kind of wine is only available here. Every day, a large number of customers are waiting to enter. The almost endless money has made the small gang of only seven or eight people expand to more than thirty people in two months, and the number is still continuing to expand.

Just running this bar here can bring them two to three thousand yuan in profit every day, and they already have the foundation for continued expansion.

There are not only ordinary drunkards in this bar, but also some people from other gangs. The Venom guys know this, but they are not afraid.

Because only their boss knows the formula, and it is said that the formula is very mysterious and is related to indigenous witchcraft or something.

As a large amount of wine was mixed with the painkillers, and the leader of the Venom Gang showed a satisfied smile as he watched the painkillers completely dissolve in the wine.

He opened the door of the warehouse and signaled his men to move the wine out, and the bar began to open for business.

A large number of drunkards rushed in impatiently. Although the drinks here were obviously ten to twenty cents more expensive than other places, they were still happy to enjoy them here.

Among them was the guy with blue eyes.

They have been fighting with the Red Dog Gang these days and have been on edge every day. Finally, they have nothing to do tonight, so they can come over and spend some money.

He hadn't had a Venom Bomb for several days. The Venom Gang added a prefix to their bombs, called Venom Bomb, to distinguish them from the drinks in other bars.

The effect is indeed good and is highly recognized by alcoholics.

The moment a big gulp of wine poured into his throat, the man with blue eyes seemed to relax suddenly.

The inexplicable discomfort and slight pain in my body seemed to disappear at this moment. I felt like I was back in the womb, soaking in the warm amniotic fluid, enjoying the warmth and tranquility...

He even had some thoughts in his mind: how great it would be if all this could last forever!
