Gabe stepped forward; the three men stepped backward.“I won’t even need five minutes to have fun with you guys, so don’t shy away, darlings,” Gabe uttered in a chilling tone. He looked like a predator that had been scratched where it hurt.One of the three men took out a knife and screamed as he attacked Gabe.Gabe effortlessly dodged all the quick thrusts and grabbed that man’s wrist and twisted it with brute force, making him scream painfully. The knife fell out of his hand, and his elbow and shoulders dislodged at the same time, making that man pass out from the sheer pain.The remaining two men turned and began to run away.Gabe kicked on the knife at an angle, and the knife flew up and fell into his hand. In a flash he dashed past the two men and slit one of their throats and pushed the other against the wall and thrust the knife up his ass.“AHH!” that man screamed at the top of his lungs. Tears and snot bubbles came down his face as terror gripped his face.“Shh!” Gabe hissed
Riding on the motorbike made it much easier for Gabe to travel around the vast Drummer Street which was as large as a village with over 10,000 buildings in its locality.“Why do they still call it a street where they can simply call this a zone or a sector or something?” Gabe wondered.[Let me check…] Systa used the internet to find out some information. [Ah, I see. The six bosses that rule the gang divided the northern city into six areas, and they chose to call them streets because the family name of their big boss is actually Street. I had to dig through a lot of old websites to get this information.]“What’s the identity of the Big Boss?”[I couldn’t find it.] Systa said with disappointment. [I can’t hack highly encrypted servers as that’s the expertise of the Hacking System.]“Are you saying that the bank’s servers are not highly encrypted then?”[No, they are, but let's say I’m able to do certain things because I sacrificed certain other things.]“I feel like you’re just making
“Kill him? I know he’s a bad guy, but my purpose of visit is to get my car back, not to go on a killing spree,” Gabe told Systa.[You’re being too soft.] Systa scolded him. [What if he bears a grudge on you and attacks you later. No, what if he attacks your aunt instead?]Gabe’s heart skipped for a second. “T-That’s all the more reason I shouldn’t pick a fight needlessly with the snake gang, don’t you think?”Systa was startled. [Well, right now, you are not strong enough to take on the gang and also protect your aunt at the same time, but you should at least show the gang just how much of a threat you are by being ruthless. There’s no better way than destroying a few subordinates. That way, they’ll take you seriously and try to resolve the situation.]“Or they might get utterly pissed off and come after me with full force,” Gabe said.“Sheesh…” Systa sighed. “Did you forget that I made you fight Bart when you were a nobody? But you have surely changed after meeting Mia.”“W-What?” Ga
Just as Gabe was not expecting to see Zuri in Drummer Street of all places, she was also not expecting him to be roaming in this region either.“S-Saleswoman?” Gabe couldn’t help but ask her. “Do you work here?”“No. Not really,” she cleared her throat. “I came here because I was asked to temporarily fill the position, but what the hell are you doing here? Do you really want to free some random girl for 40,000 dollars? Just because you got a job in some big company, you think you can act so stupidly? Are you out of your fucking mind?” she spoke very frankly, making the injured girl shiver.“My purpose here is not to buy her, but it is fate that she asked for my help,” Gabe tried his best to speak calmly and politely. “If I don’t help her when I’m capable of doing it, I’ll feel guilty for the rest of my life.”“What’s your real purpose for coming here then?” she asked in a rather annoyed tone because she believed that Gabe was her property, so if he were to lose 40,000 dollars, it was
Imelda checked in for her flight and was going through the security gateway, but to her great shock, she saw the snake gang members there. Moreover, Elvis was also there. He just finished taking a bag full of chocolates, with drugs hidden inside. The bag wasn’t even checked by the guards because Elvis had long paid them.Just as Elvis and his men were leaving, one of them saw Imelda and recognized her before she could hide her face from them. “Boss, that’s a girl from our street.”“What?” Elvis’ gaze instantly focused on Imelda and made her tremble. She shivered so much she dropped the bag and ran the opposite way. “Get her.”Two men chased her. They didn’t shout because they were still in the airport, but once Imelda left the airport, they increased their speed.Imelda was so tense that she ignored the cab right before her and instead began to look for Gabe.“Where do you think you’re running away to, bitch?” The two men caught up with her, but so did another person: Gabe.Seeing Gab
Gabe came driving the same superbike that he had taken from Zuri. Along the way, Systa gave him more information about the women trafficking happening in the northern part of the city. And it not only made him feel bad for the women but also feel hatred toward the snake gang.[Once a girl comes into a street owned by the snake gang, she won’t be able to leave for at least six months.] Systa explained. [Their phones will be taken. They are given cigars, alcohol, and pills against pregnancy. They work for 18-20 hours every day, seven days a week. Those who resist will be beaten and will be given pain killers if they agree to cooperate. But if you resist, then they won’t even let you sleep at night. Not all clients work here in these brothels. Those who cooperate will be sent to massage parlors, beauty parlors, bars, and private apartments where they could earn 100 to 200 dollars every half hour. If they can earn double the amount they’re bought for in six months, they'll be freed, or th
In that dark street, the headlights of the bikes were lighting up the spot where the crates were. The crates were not empty.One of the guys that were riding the bikes was Mike the Number 4 in Drummer Street. After Gabe got buried under the crates, he looked disappointed. “Did this guy really defeat Number 5? I was expecting some fight, but this is boring.”Exaggerating things was normal in this region because cameras were never used, and so stories changed drastically as they went from one mouth to another.Mike was a guy with a long face. His hair was also very long. He was the younger brother of Valon, the Number 2 who was the strategist of Drummer Street.“At this rate, he’ll die from suffocation. Let’s go,” Mike said, and everyone turned their bikes’ throttles and began to leave the scene.The heavy crates collapsed to the sides, and Gabe stood at the top, looking completely unhurt but also utterly pissed off.“Stop, you bastards!” he yelled. “Get back here and face me if you hav
Mike was not as smart as his elder brother Valon, but he was not at all dumb. He didn’t want Gabe to cause anymore damage to his fellow gang members as there were enough eyes witnessing everything.Naturally, Mike got down from his bike and pulled the baseball bat that he had installed on the side of the bike.“I admit that I underestimated you a little, but now I can believe that you’ve actually defeated Number 5,” Mike said.“Hmph, do you think I’ll go easy on you just because your brain cells started working better?” Gabe blurted and then picked up the egg box. “Since you seemed to be a higher-ranked gang member, I’m going to give you a special rotten egg service.”“We’ll see about that,” Mike used his speed to close the distance in a quick dash. If a guy with a tall frame like him were to suddenly attack a person, they would automatically be put under instant pressure and react imperfectly. Mike was counting on just that, so he could swing the bat the moment Gabe would start ducki
