Chapter 53: A Plan
"See? I told you, I’m a businessman. Everything I do is backed by reason and evidence," the bald man said, tilting his chin upward. At his signal, one of his subordinates began dragging Song 6PUS through a small side door.
As Song 6PUS was being hauled off, he turned back to Sun Jack and the others, grinning like it was all a big joke. "Hahaha, this time’s on me! Next time, next time, I swear the money will go to you first!"
Sun Jack couldn’t believe this guy actually owed 120@. This was going to be tricky.
After a moment of thought, Sun Jack raised his head and spoke to the bald man in the VIP box again. "120@—how do you expect him to pay that back? Even if you sold him, it wouldn’t cover that debt."
"Actually, he can pay it back. The kid recently got lucky—80@ landed in his account," the bald man replied with a smug grin. It immediately clicked for Sun Jack. All this time, this guy had been targeting the payment from their last job.
"That 80 f***ing belongs to us—" Tapai started to shout, but Sun Jack quickly held him back. They were on enemy turf, and with Song 6PUS in the bald man’s hands, it wasn’t the right time to make a move.
Out of the corner of his eye, Sun Jack noticed several men and women standing among the crowd, all glaring in their direction. Each bore various combat prosthetics and the "18" symbol on their faces. It was clear they were part of the 18th Street gang.
Seeing this, the bald man smirked and gestured toward the single-pane glass showcasing the roaring modified beasts. "As for the other 40@, he can earn it by joining his predecessors in the arena."
