Chapter 1871: Before He Attacked
“This…” Zhang Bing and Zhang Jiefang were both so surprised that their jaws dropped! The decoration of the top floor was completely different from the decoration of the lower floors! The top floor could only be described as a splendid palace!
They didn’t expect this hotel to have such a luxurious floor previously. There were flashy lights, elegant design, n.o.ble furnis.h.i.+ngs, and luxurious furniture… An aristocratic atmosphere pervaded the whole area. It was like a scene out of a dream…
Above the corridor was a large piece of plexigla.s.s, through which one could see the scenery in the sky directly. It would definitely be a beautiful sight to watch the starry sky from here at night.
This luxurious, G.o.d-like treatment stunned both Zhang Bing and Zhang Jiefang. Usually, they could only see hotel facilities of this cla.s.s on the Internet and TV. They had never experienced it themselves. This kind of thing was too distant from them.
Now, they could confirm that the relations.h.i.+p between Yang Ming and the hotel owner was not only close, but very close indeed. No ordinary person could get three top-end luxury suites easily.
“Zhang Bing, you and Uncle Zhang are in room two. Go back and take a rest first. I am in room one. If there is something, just call me over the intercom l.” Yang Ming also noticed Zhang Bing and Zhang Jiefang’s shock, but he did not say much.
“Okay, boss!” Zhang Bing nodded. He couldn’t wait to see what the inside of the rooms looked like.
Yang Ming took out the room card to open the room one’s door, while Zhang Bing knocked on the door of room two. Not long after, the door opened, and w.a.n.g Mei’s excited high-pitch scream came from inside …
Yang Ming smiled slightly and did not disturb them. He entered his room. Meanwhile, Golden Bull entered room three.
After Yang Ming left, Smith did not dare to delay. After all, Kla.s.s had died in the casino. He had to report to the behind-the-scenes boss immediately.
Although the Nancheng Casino was the main business of the Nancheng Family in Las Vegas, they also owned other businesses. They were involved in multiple industries here such as catering and real estate. Therefore, it was not possible for the person-in-charge of Las Vegas to be in the Nancheng Casino at all times. In his opinion, Smith had internal support and Kla.s.s had strong foreign aid for today’s affair. Wouldn’t it be easy to kill a foreigner?
So he didn’t worry about it at all. Govisik was sitting in a s.p.a.cious and bright office and was reading a proposal in his hand. With the Nancheng Family’s support, he was likely to be elected as a parliament member of Las Vegas City this time. Although he already had considerable power in the city of Las Vegas, and he was also the boss behind the Guillotine Gang which was one of the three major underground gangs, who wouldn’t want to grasp more power?
If he could get this parliamentary status, Govisik’s power would further expand. Perhaps he would even be recognized by the top people in the family and be promoted to a higher position. It was even possible that he could become one of the elders on the family’s council!
The phone rang suddenly. Govisik frowned. All his thoughts had been devoted to collaborating with people during this period in order to win the parliament member position on his first try.
“h.e.l.lo, Govisik speaking,” Govisik answered the phone.
“Boss, I’m Smith!” Smith said carefully.
“Oh, Smith, how are things going with Kla.s.s? Is it going well?” Govisik was dissatisfied with Smith interrupting his thoughts. But, the family master had ordered him to cooperate fully with Kla.s.s after all. So Govisik naturally would not take it lightly.
Govisik knew that Kla.s.s’s strength was not weak, and he had strong support. Govisik simply had to cooperate with him, but it was still necessary to show minimal concern.
“Boss, I have something to report about this to you…” Smith hesitated, and said in a frustrated tone.
“Oh, is Kla.s.s satisfied?” Govisik’s mind was not focused on the matter, so naturally he did not hear the frustration in Smith’s words. He never thought that Kra.s.s could possibly fail or even die. Not to mention Smith’s cooperation, even the two teams brought along by Kla.s.s alone were very powerful. One team was dedicated to attacks and a.s.sa.s.sinations while the other was dedicated to special operations. If these people couldn’t get things done, it would be mind-blowing.
“…” Smith couldn’t help but sigh when he saw that his boss had not figured out the situation. But he still had to report truthfully, “Boss, Kla.s.s is dead.”
“Oh, let him die then… What? Wait, what are you talking about? Kla.s.s is dead?” Govisik suddenly became goggle-eyed when he heard Smith’s words. He asked Smith in disbelief, “Smith, what are you joking about? How could Kla.s.s be dead? ”
“Boss… actually this is the case…” Smith didn’t try to hide it. He narrated the events of Kra.s.s and Yang Ming betting on their lives from the beginning to the end.
“You mean Yang Ming killed Kla.s.s by hand?” Govisik felt a little strange. What about the men Kla.s.s brought? Why didn’t they attack? Did these people just disappear?
“Yes… boss. Yang Ming killed Kla.s.s…” Smith said, “Moreover, he also said something ruthless. He asked the family master of the Nancheng Family to meet him at the Douglas Vast Hotel within twenty-four hours. Otherwise, we will bear the consequences!”
“Hmph! Such arrogant words!” Govisik didn’t take Yang Ming’s words to heart. In his opinion, this Yang Ming was just a weak man with no background. After killing Kla.s.s, he simply said these ruthless words as he had become overconfident.
“Yes…” Smith had already transmitted the message anyway. The boss would make the decision. It had nothing to do with him.
“I got it. That’s all for now.” Govisik frowned and hung up.
Kla.s.s is dead? This made Govisik very annoyed. Although this person does not belong to the Nancheng family, the family master of the Nancheng Family personally asked me to cooperate with him.
Although the family master did not request me to protect this person, I am naturally responsible since this person was killed in my territory!
c.r.a.p. Trouble comes to me at such a critical moment! Govisik running for the parliament election was obviously not possible without the support of the Nancheng Family. If he didn’t handle this sudden event properly, the family master would definitely have a bad impression of him!
What’s wrong with this Kla.s.s? He brought so many people and was still killed by others. Is he a fool or what? He already knew from Smith’s narrative previously that after Kla.s.s entered the casino, both of Kla.s.s’s teams did not appear from the beginning to the end. In other words, Kla.s.s was killed before he could unleash his power.
What a fool! He has so many men but he still chose to pretend to be capable by himself. Isn’t there something wrong with him? Govisik was speechless by Kla.s.s’s approach. He obviously didn’t know that Kla.s.s’s men did not appear because they were subdued by Yang Ming’s men earlier. He thought that this situation was Kla.s.s’s fault as he did not coordinate well and tried to show off alone by not bringing his men in with him.
However, regardless of whether Kra.s.s is a fool or not, he died here. I can’t just sit still and do nothing. Even though I am not responsible for it as it was all his fault, I still need to explain it to the family.
“Yang Ming… c.r.a.p! This kid got me into trouble. I must not let him go!” Govisik whispered Yang Ming’s name in his mouth. No matter the grudge between Yang Ming and Kla.s.s, I can’t let Yang Ming leave here alive since he killed Kla.s.s in my territory!
“Is it the Douglas Vast Hotel?” Govisik formed a cold smile at the corner of his mouth. Hmph, this kid even dared to say his place of residence. Seems like I don’t need to waste effort looking for him. If that’s the case, let him wait for death in the hotel!
Chapter 1872: The Family Who are Rus.h.i.+ng to Die
Of course, Govisik would not act rashly and send his men directly to the Douglas Vast Hotel. After all, the Douglas Vast Hotel belonged to another power, the Douglas Family. Although the Douglas Family was not comparable to the Nancheng family, it was also a huge family after all.
Before I go, I need to inform them first. After all, etiquette is necessary for certain matters.
Thinking of this, Govisik picked up the phone and called Batterton’s number.
“h.e.l.lo? Good day, I’m Batterton.” Batterton was unusually polite when answering the phone these past two days because Yang Ming was staying in the hotel. He was afraid that the family master or Yang Ming would make an ad-hoc call.
“Mr. Batterton, right? I’m Govisik!” Govisik said enthusiastically. Although the two of them belonged to different families, they were both respectable people in Las Vegas, and their relations.h.i.+p was considered quite good.
“Mr. Govisik, good day to you!” Batterton didn’t expect Govisik to call him at this time. But he suddenly recalled that Yang Ming had asked him to collect information about the Nancheng Casino. Batterton’s heart skipped a beat at this moment. Suddenly, he became vigilant and careful about Govisik. Since this matter was related to Yang Ming, he had to take it seriously, “Is there anything?”
“It’s like this. Someone caused trouble in our casino, but this person is staying in your Douglas Vast Hotel. Since I want to bring my men to catch him, I need to inform you first,” said Govisik.
“Oh, I see—” Batterton heard Govisik’s words, and said in his heart that it was just a triviality. Although the other party informed him, it was actually just a kind reminder. If they really wanted to catch someone, there was nothing he could do.
“Since Mr. Batterton has no opinion about this, I will send my men over in a short while. I hope you can explain to your staff to cooperate please?” Govisik said, “I’ll invite you to play golf another day!”
“This is not a problem,” said Batterton. “By the way, what’s the name of the person you’re trying to catch? It will be easier for me to arrange in advance if I know their name.”
“Oh, his name is Yang Ming, and he is a foreigner!” said Govisik.
“What? Yang— Yang Ming?” Batterton was suddenly startled.
“Batterton, what’s wrong?” Govisik heard Batterton’s strange voice, but he couldn’t see Batterton’s expression, so naturally, he didn’t think much about it.
“Nothing. I’ll arrange it and call you when everything is ready,” said Batterton.
“Is that so? Then should I bring my men directly, or should I wait for your phone call?” Govisik was somewhat confused.
“Please wait for my call first. I have to make sure that the guest is in the hotel, or else wouldn’t it be a waste if you came for nothing?” explained Batterton.
“En, you are right.” Although Govisik thought that Batterton’s words were a bit strange, they were still reasonable. Hence, Govisik didn’t speculate much and followed Batterton’s idea. He then hung up the phone.
After Batterton hung up Govisik’s phone, he was suddenly drenched in a cold sweat. Luckily he asked that extra question casually. Otherwise, it would be troublesome! He must not be careless as this matter involved Yang Ming!
Batterton did not know Yang Ming’s background, but he must have a significant ident.i.ty because even the family master respected and valued him so much!
Batterton wouldn’t say anything to Govisik if he was going to harm Yang Ming, but he had to ask the family master first before making a decision. This was why Batterton delayed Govisik’s side by being perfunctory.
Batterton organized his words and called the family master, Caique, “h.e.l.lo, is it the family master? I’m Batterton!”
Caique had given Batterton his personal phone number because the matter involved Yang Ming. Therefore, Caique told Batterton that he must be informed about all news relating to Yang Ming as soon as possible.
“Oh, Batterton. What’s the matter?” At this moment, Caique was discussing important matters with several elders in the family. However, he quickly gestured with his hand and answered the phone after seeing Batterton’s number.
The elders next to him were baffled. Isn’t Batterton the person-in-charge of the family business in Las Vegas? Why does the family master put so much importance on him? He still needs to answer the phone at this time.
At the same time, several elders were also dissatisfied with Caique’s behavior of answering the phone. Can you answer the phone during the meeting just because you are a family master? Then, why do you still ask us to turn off the phone? Isn’t this unfair treatment?
However, Caique’s subsequent words made these elders hold their tongue and keep quiet involuntarily.
“Family master, I have something important to report to you!” Batterton said, “It’s about Mr. Yang Ming!”
“Oh? It’s about Mr. Yang Ming? What’s the matter? Tell me quickly!” Caique asked hurriedly.
“It’s like this… The Nancheng Casino’s owner, Govisik, called me just now and said that a guest staying in our hotel caused trouble in their casino. They are coming to catch him, so he informed me first. I asked for the guest’s name, and Govisik told me that it was Yang Ming. So I delayed the other party by telling Govisik that I would help him check if Mr. Yang Ming is in the hotel and told him to wait until I call back. Then, I reported it to you as soon as possible!” said Batterton.
“Batterton, you did a good job!” Caique was also shocked when he heard Batterton’s words. This was a serious matter as it involved Yang Ming. They had to be extra cautious.
“Family master, what should we do next?” Batterton asked carefully.
What to do next…? Caique was also uncertain at that moment. In his opinion, with Yang Ming’s strength, he would not be afraid of the so-called Nancheng family. Wasn’t the Lancer family one of the most prosperous families in Europe previously? Yet they were wiped out instantly.
But the key is my att.i.tude. Although Yang Ming doesn’t need my help, I have to show some concern. Thinking of this, Caique said, “Let’s do this. Immediately report this matter to Yang Ming truthfully and ask him what his thoughts are, and whether he needs our help. If he needs our help, you need to fully cooperate with him! You don’t need to ask me again! ”
“Ah!” Batterton froze and wondered. Why does the family master go to such great lengths for Yang Ming’s affairs? However, he said worriedly, “But family master, Govisik’s power is not weak. He seems to own Guillotine Gang, one of the three major underground gangs here! ”
“You don’t have to worry about this! Cooperate well with Mr. Yang. No matter what the end result is, the family will surely reward you!” Caique gave Batterton peace of mind.
“Okay, then I’ll report to Mr. Yang now!” Batterton was relieved after getting confirmation from Caique.
After hanging up the phone, Caique shook his head and said with a trace of irony, “This Nancheng family is really rus.h.i.+ng to die! You should have already burned the incense and be grateful that Yang Ming doesn’t mess with you. You even want to take the initiative to mess with Yang Ming now! Sigh!”
The elders who were present understood the context of Caique’s phone call. It seemed that the Nancheng family really didn’t want to be at peace. They could have provoked anyone, but they chose to provoke Yang Ming!
Everyone present understood Yang Ming’s power clearly.
Batterton immediately dialed the number to Yang Ming’s room after reporting to Caique. He had already heard from the staff that Yang Ming had returned to the hotel.
“h.e.l.lo?” Yang Ming answered the intercom call. At first he thought it was from Zhang Bing or Golden Bull, but Batterton’s voice sounded from the end of the line.
“Mr. Yang, am I bothering you? I have something important to report to you!” Batterton unconsciously used the tone he used to report back to the family master. In his opinion, even Caique was treating Yang Ming this way, so shouldn’t he respect Yang Ming even more?
“Oh, it’s okay. Just say it!” Yang Ming was somewhat perplexed as he didn’t know what Batterton was trying to say to him at this time.
“It’s like this, Mr. Yang. Govisik, the person-in-charge of Nancheng family’s business in Las Vegas, called me just now. He said that you caused trouble in their casino and they are bringing their men to catch you. Hence, they informed me in advance…” Batterton repeated the content of Govisik’s previous phone call to Yang Ming, ” I have delayed them for now, Mr. Yang. What do you think about this matter? Would you like me to gather some men…?”
