Chapter 7, The Gang

Damn it! I worked hard for three hours and earned less than 20 gold coins

By the way, among the crowd, a neatly dressed and beautiful female police officer stirred within him an uncontrollable desire for illicit thoughts

If they are closed for business today and tomorrow, it means that they will have gained nothing throughout this week

He suddenly realized that the method employed by that bastard before his death was most likely a technique capable of infinitely amplifying human desires

Li Mochen's mother hails from the Wiltonstein family, which originally came from the old continent of the German Empire, thus he also possesses half of his German heritage

However, the original owner of this body also maintained a respectful yet distant attitude towards the gang.

These were even more intriguing to Li Mochen than the police cars parked nearby. According to the original owner's memories, these large vehicles operated on a fuel known as 'petroleum', which had already become widespread in this world

I suspect it must be the Black Prison Skeletons who did it, as they are the only ones in the South City who dare to provoke the Blood Fang Gang, disregarding both the police and others. Did you say something, A Mo?

If it were still the original Tao Ran, he would be completely unafraid of such tactics. However, his current state is a fusion of Tao Ran and Li Mochen

Li Mochen was quite pleased with this outcome, as he was eager to return home to verify his previous conjectures. It was likely that this matter would not be resolved in a day or two, and with work paused for two days, it could be said that it was just to his liking

Whether it is the escort from yesterday or the beautiful police officer of today, Tao Ran can remain indifferent and unconcerned, but the original Li Mochen may not be able to do so

Although this individual has been preoccupied with investigating the cause of their parents' death and intends to seek revenge for them, they have never considered leveraging the power of the gang, which is something that Li Mochen particularly admires

I believe that Andre relies more on his appearance

Li Mochen fell into contemplation once again, and after a second, he nodded slightly: "There is indeed such a matter, but I declined it."

At this moment, William seemed to recall something: "By the way, Amo, speaking of gangs, I heard that Frank from the Teutonic Order came to see you the day before yesterday at school, right? They want to recruit you, don't they?"

Indeed, after a continuous barrage of over twenty gunshots, a large number of police cars rushed to the scene, and hundreds of armed police officers, fully equipped, surged down, sealing off the streets and alleys, effectively suppressing the situation

There was also yesterday, that incredible victory.

It is evident that the 'Purification Charm' he drew himself, although it has a certain suppressive effect, becomes virtually ineffective when confronted with a beautiful woman like that police officer.

The scene of the shooting incident was just sixty meters away, but that area had been tightly sealed off by police cars and a human barricade. Shortly thereafter, the restaurant's operations manager approached with a pale face.

Hey! Amo, these are members of the Blood Fang Gang, I saw the wolf tooth tattoo.

However, this is also a source of turmoil in contemporary American society. The early Constitution of the United States stipulated that a well-regulated militia is necessary for the security of a free state, thus the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed

Do not ask, this must once again stem from the backlash of Dugu Tianyi

This is a female colleague: "Don't you all feel it? Andre's smile today is exceptionally bright, and his voice and tone are incredibly pleasant. His service actions are particularly clean and attentive, making people feel comfortable. If I were a guest, I would also be willing to be generous with him, opening my wallet."

Only at this moment did the people lying in the restaurant dare to raise their heads and look outside

Li Mochen was very curious about what it feels like to drive these vehicles and what the underlying principles are

Thus, many of the attendants, including William, were in a state of lamentation

That is an invention since modern times, utilizing gunpowder or magical energy arrays to fire bullets. Some powerful firearms can even pose a threat to high-level professionals. It is the greatest reliance of modern governments to balance various magical professionals and even outlaws.

The boss has stated that we will temporarily cease operations for today and tomorrow, so everyone should prepare to wrap up their work

Diligent, ambitious, intelligent, and principled—this is currently Li Mochen's impression of the original owner of the body. This unfortunate child, who met an untimely death, possessed all the qualities necessary for success, aside from a hot-tempered and impulsive nature.

This was originally a constitutional provision established to resist threats from the dark world, malevolent creatures, invasions by former sovereign nations, and indigenous peoples, yet it has been exploited by arms dealers. Due to their efforts, firearms have flooded America, resulting in several hundred deaths from gun violence nationwide every day, with over seven hundred shooting incidents occurring in Atlanta alone last year

Could it be that one's own fated treasure has not actually dissipated into the boundless void?

William walked out the door, speaking and cursing, looking indignant. However, when the two of them passed the crime scene surrounded by a large number of police cars at the end of the street, William fell silent, appearing exceedingly docile.

This is because a group of white police officers over there is looking at them. Some of them have a particularly cold expression, with their hands resting on their holsters.

Li Mochen had no interest at all; he had already retrieved information about the Black Prison Skeleton and the Blood Tooth Gang from his memory, knowing that this was one of the largest black gangs in South Atlanta. However, he maintained a disdainful attitude towards gangs, which were similar to those in the underworld but even more vicious, both in his past life and in this one

Alright, I knew it! It seems that the day I reunite with my beloved car will be postponed by another week. A bunch of nonsense! I really don't know where these bastards came from, do they not understand the rules? They actually came to Market Street to cause trouble, their heads must be filled with water. Just wait, that group of white-skinned pigs outside will surely knock their brains out.

Li Mochen felt a bit embarrassed as he sensed the slightly intense gaze of the female attendant, and he couldn't help but turn his head slightly away, while a look of contemplation appeared in his eyes

William sighed and then rested his chin on his hand, pondering: "It seems that your luck has been quite good lately, A Mo. Today, you hosted dozens of tables of guests, all of whom were affluent customers."

However, very few people would cause trouble on Market Street in Atlanta, as this area is a key patrol zone for the Atlanta Police Department, with a heavy police presence

Another waiter remarked dismissively, "Have you noticed? The ones who give the highest tips are all women"

The United States implements a five-day workweek, so the vast majority of those working here on weekends are students, similar to the situation of William and Li Mocheng

The name 'Teutonic Order' sounds quite grand, but its nature is actually that of a gang. The only difference from those black prison skulls and the Bloodfang Gang is that this is a gang composed entirely of ethnic Germans

Facial appearance and luck are one aspect, but I believe that the most important factor is the level of service

When this thought emerged in Li Mochen's mind, a surge of excitement instantly appeared in his eyes. He even had an urgent desire to return to his residence.

The speaker may be indifferent, but the listener is attentive. William's words made him realize that his current state is indeed somewhat unusual

Li Mochen instantly understood, recalling the memories about 'firearms' that he had seen in the original owner's recollections

At this moment, through the gaps between the vehicles, the two could vaguely see two bodies lying in pools of blood. William couldn't help but take a glance, and then his expression became excited once again

At that moment, a few loud "bangs" suddenly echoed from a distance, shaking the eardrums. The glass curtain wall beside them shattered with a loud crash, and screams erupted throughout the restaurant. Li Mochen had not yet reacted when he was dragged under the table by William. The latter's face had turned completely pale: "Damn it! Someone is shooting. This is Market Street!"
