“S…Sir York! Hello!”The door was pushed open. Dutch tidied up his uniform, and went inside.Even a prominent figure like him felt extremely nervous the moment he stepped into the room. He felt as if he was about to witness his god.As soon as he laid eyes on Harvey’s gaze, he instantly knew. The Head Coach had hidden his identity in coming here. Dutch, in his excitement, almost uttered that name. He stooped right in front of Harvey, not knowing whether he should stand or sit.Harvey raised his head, and glanced at Dutch. “Let’s talk.”“You hear that?! Everybody out!” Dutch yelled. He instantly chased everyone out of the room, then locked the door and pulled the plug of all surveillance cameras inside.“It’s my fault my subordinates are like this! I’m sorry you’re suffering because of this…” he said, after saluting respectfully.“Don’t worry about it.”Harvey smiled.“Power means everything here. There are all sorts of different forces in the outskirts as well.“You’re no
Dutch smiled.“There’s something you don’t know, Head Coach. As a sect, the Aenar Temple has peculiar habits. It’s said that they have a lot of magical instruments hidden in one of the statues.“The statue broke, causing a lot of those instruments to fall out. They needed to perform a ritual so they could take the instruments away to be rebuilt.“The entire process is extremely important for them. That was why they requested the government to bring us for their security work.”Harvey pondered the situation.“Out of all those instruments, is the legendary Two-Eyed Bead also included? It’s also going to show up at their ceremony later, right?”Dutch froze.“How did you know about that? Even in the Aenar Temple, this is a huge secret.“It’s said that the top ten families, the five hidden families, the four cornerstones, and the sacred martial arts training grounds are interested in the bead.“I’ve been catching a lot of thieves because of it, too. Security work is grueling there…
Dutch Cobb briefly thought about the situation.“I understand.“Another thing; Evermore’s probably behind the situation as well.“Other than that, the three great temples aren’t exactly righteous entities either.“The water’s too deep here.”Harvey York stood before tapping Dutch on the shoulder.“You’re lucky that I’m here.“If not, even your family would probably be destroyed because of this…”Cold sweats started dripping down Dutch’s back when he finally came to his senses.“I’ll quit the job immediately…”“Who’s asking you to quit?Harvey cracked a smile.“Who’s going to be my support here if you do?“I can’t just tell everyone I’m the Head Coach now, can I?“Listen to me! Make up an excuse! It doesn’t matter if it’s a cold or your stomach hurts!“Pretend to be sick!“It doesn’t matter if you do security work for Aenar Temple.“We’ll just have to watch the show when the time comes.Harvey quickly changed the topic.“Right. Let’s talk business. If I’m just an ordi
Under everyone’s shocked gaze, Harvey York strode out of the police station.Nobody would dare say a word since Dutch Cobb was also beside him.Freddie Robbins and the other inspectors kneeled on the mud outside the entrance.Rae Higgs hesitated. She wanted to kneel, but her remaining dignity would not allow her to do such a thing.Then again, Harvey did not mind anyway. He did not want to be too ruthless, for Harlan Higgs’ sake.He sat in Dutch’s Land Rover before smiling faintly at Judith Pedler. The car drove off soon after.“What? What’s going on here?“Why does the director of the police station take that bastard away?“How come I don’t know about his background?”Whitley Cobb was shivering in anger. She came all the way here to crush the filth of a man.And yet, what had happened?What was going on?Harlan was pleased.On the other hand, Billie Higgs was showing utter pride and disdain.“Did you forget about the old hag he’s being kept by, Mom?“The four great trib
While Whitley Cobb and the others were still figuring out Harvey York’s identity, he had arrived at the entrance of a small town.The town was named Shadeville since it would only appear in the dead of night.This was an extremely controversial place connecting Country H and Mongolia.Both countries would have to think twice before sending any troops around here.Because of this, all sorts of criminals would gather here, along with the wealthy and strong, just to pursue excitement.According to Dutch Cobb, anything could be bought here with the right amount of money.Information, firearms, people, and things beyond human comprehension could be found.According to Dutch’s intel, the source of the outskirts’ dizzy pills misused in many Casino-Palaces was also here.This was why the police never solved the case for the longest time.Ordinary inspectors would not even be able to survive in a place like this, let alone investigate.Dutch told Harvey that the Wolven Tribe seemed to
The woman let out a chortle.“I’m pretty expensive, you know. That money alone wouldn’t be enough!”Harvey tapped on the woman’s perky butt before smiling.“I’ll have to play until I get enough then!“You’ll have to stay with me for the night!”Then, Harvey went over to a table in the main hall before throwing a stack of chips forward.“Big and Small?“I’ll go big! I’m a big man, after all!”A few hunks with the smell of gunpowder around the table were all wrapping their arms around their companions.They seemed disdainful when they saw Harvey’s scrawny face.But after seeing the chips he threw out, they instinctively gasped.A hundred thousand dollars was not much, but it was no small number.After all, the people around the table lived their lives on the knife-edge.They understood that such wasteful people would be from a wealthy family or a ruthless man who treated money as just numbers.Either way, it would not benefit them just to provoke someone of this caliber.T
Harvey York shrugged.“I don’t have much money, but I still can easily do that here…”Harvey threw two hundred thousand dollars worth of chips on the table.“Again! I’m going big!”The dealer looked deeply into Harvey’s eyes before shaking the cup around.“Remove your hands when ready!”Many customers gathered around after hearing that Harvey was doing the Dragon Slayer move.After all, not many knew about that move.A lot more were also following Harvey’s bet. After all, judging from his righteous aura, they would probably earn some money by betting the same.The lid of the cup was taken off soon after.The dealer gave a chuckle.“One! One! Two!“This is as small as it can get!”Harvey, yet again, instantly lost two hundred thousand dollars.The people who followed his bet showed utter disdain, cursing his bad luck.A gentle-looking man showed a profound look before talking.“I see it’s your first time in a place like this.“The Dragon Slayer isn’t an easy move. Even
The dealer opened the lid.“One! One!“One…?”The dealer’s confident look instantly worsened.The dice were all weighed by mercury.She could make them any number she wanted.She planned to toy Harvey York by making the last number different than whatever Harvey bet on…And yet this happened.This was unbelievable!Harvey pulled back his hand from the table before he burst out laughing.“Triples!“That’s seven million dollars for me!“Not bad! Not bad at all! This is way faster than robbing a damn bank!“Give me my money already!”The dealer’s expression instantly darkened after seeing Harvey laughing nonstop.The people around were also completely shocked.‘Triples?!’‘He actually won the bet?!’‘This is unbelievable!’A beautiful woman on the second-floor balcony frowned as she squinted downstairs.Harvey showed a weird look.The secretary beside the woman pulled out her laptop and looked into the situation for a moment.“Ms. Romina! Isn’t that the person who we
