Gao Cheng was also warm-hearted. He had known Li Yang for a long time and knew that Li Yang was a loyal and righteous man, a good brother and best friend to whom one could entrust one's life!
"Alright! Let's proceed according to plan. We'll begin tonight!" Li Yang waved his hand and gave the order with a commanding air!
"Yes!" The crowd roared in response.
...
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were few, the lights were dazzling, and the crowds were bustling!
Several more hours passed, and it was past midnight. There were hardly any people still wandering the streets, and those who were were like ghosts, not human.
The parking lot of the casino, where luxury cars were piled up, was still full, but many times more so than during the day.
Yes, the place is most vibrant at night.
If you weren't in the know, you'd think this was some kind of organization's meeting place, because gambling is strictly prohibited in China, and without very strong connections, it's impossible and unthinkable to run such a thing.
We continued to wait, and around four or five in the morning, people finally started to leave one after another. Most of them looked listless and dejected, as if their fathers had died or they had been cuckolded.
Nine out of ten gamblers lose! The only ones who can win money in a casino are either reckless con artists or newly hooked sheep. Casinos deliberately let you win to get you hooked, and then they'll stab you in the back!
The vehicles had finally mostly left, and it was almost time for the casino to close for the day. With a large influx of cash every day, it was impossible for them to stay there.
Since it's an illegal venue, if the police break in, all of this money will be confiscated as it's all illegal gambling funds.
Chapter 202: Taking Down the Opportunity
Black people aren't stupid. Every day, there are people specifically assigned to escort gambling funds to a safe place, where professionals then launder the money.
Today's operation proceeded as usual. When Song Qin was around, no one dared to touch Blackie's business; now that Song Qin is dead and Blackie has become the powerful leader, no one dares to mess with him anymore.
A group of five people suddenly appeared at the back door of the Dafabet Casino, four on each side, surrounding the one in the middle.
The four young men on the periphery looked relaxed, with cigarettes dangling from their mouths, constantly puffing out smoke, their steps light and casual.
The middle-aged man was burly and fierce. He didn't smoke, but his eyes gleamed brightly. He looked around warily and carried a large briefcase.
The briefcase seemed heavy, but it felt light in his hands. He held it firmly and protected it tightly as he walked briskly.
"Brother Da, don't be so nervous. You've been following Brother Gui for quite a while now, looking after Dafa Casino for months, escorting people every morning. Has anyone dared to cause trouble? No one! Who would dare to mess with Brother Gui now! Unless they've lost their mind and don't want to live!"
The young man walking beside the burly, dark-faced man in the middle spoke, constantly exhaling smoke, looking nonchalant.
Lu Da, a burly man as black as an ox, brandished the briefcase in his hand and said, "You know what I mean! This is money. There are plenty of people who are envious. If we're not careful and something goes wrong, who among you can take responsibility?"
The young man pursed his lips and remained silent. He truly couldn't afford it; this box alone contained over a million yuan, more than he could ever amass in eight lifetimes!
The five people walked very quickly, heading straight for a Jinbei SUV not far from the back door. The car was parked on the side of the road, with the engine running, and the driver was sitting upright, wearing a baseball cap.
"Whoosh—"
The car door was opened, and the five people got in, protecting Lu Da in the middle.
"Drive!" Luda ordered after he was ready.
The car started slowly, gradually accelerated, and roared away from the Dafabet Casino, heading straight for one of the black guys' secret hideouts!
A moment later.
"Hey, are you blind or did you get your head caught in a door? Which way do we go?" a young man suddenly slapped the back of the chair and shouted.
His shout immediately alerted everyone to the problem. That's right, this isn't the usual road! Where does this lead?
The driver ignored him and continued to speed away.
"Oh no, get out of the car!" another young man suddenly exclaimed, pushing hard on the car door. But he abruptly discovered that the door wouldn't open. It had been locked.
"Damn! A robbery? Just you alone? Hmph, you're asking for it!" Another young man, who was already quite arrogant and was blowing gum, glanced at the young man driving the car with disdain and said contemptuously.
Luda remained silent, gripping the briefcase tightly, his eyes gleaming fiercely as he stared at the driver, exuding an imposing aura.
"No matter who you are or whose orders you take, let me tell you, you've come here for nothing this time. You won't be taking a single penny of this money!" a gloomy-looking young man who had been silent all along said in a deep voice.
He's the real confidant of the black guy, hiding in the Dafabet casino, directing and managing the entire casino on one hand, and monitoring Luda and the others on the other.
At best, Luda's position here is that of a security captain, a super thug.
"That's right, no matter where you're from! With me here, you're not taking this money! Stop the car right now, or I'll smash your head in with my fists!" Lu Da finally spoke, his voice loud and rough. Very intimidating.
However, the car continued to move forward quickly, completely ignoring their threats and warnings!
The crowd was somewhat alarmed.
"This guy's too reckless! Is he going to fight to the death?" Liu Kong, Black Ghost's henchman, suddenly turned serious. He pulled a black pistol from his waist, pressed it against the driver's head, and sneered, "Brother, don't get too worked up. This gun doesn't have eyes!"
squelch...
The SUV finally came to a sudden stop with a loud screech of brakes, and the driver raised his hands and remained seated.
He was wearing a baseball cap, so his face wasn't clearly visible.
Luda and the others looked outside and saw that the car had left the bustling street and arrived at a dark street with few people.
"Damn it! How did we get here?!" One of the bodyguards, recognizing the address, cursed loudly. This place was far from the Dafabet casino, even outside the Black gang's territory. It was too remote and backward; there was no profit to be made here, and the Black gang wouldn't even bother with it!
"Get out of the car!" Liu Kong shouted in a low voice, his pistol still pointed at the driver's head.
The driver got out of the car with his hands raised, and Liu Kong and several other young bodyguards also got out, leaving only Lu Da in the car.
