Gray Street Three in Turmoil

After seeing off Nightless Sky Fire Apricot, Lin Yu returned to the surface—following the path he had come from, he found the manhole cover whose Alarm Device had been removed and climbed up it.

After returning to Gray Street Three, Lin Yu circled around twice more before finally arriving back at the Demon Pig Bar.

The reason for returning to the Demon Pig Bar is simple: if someone wants to find Fool, then the last place he can be investigated is this bar.

Just as Lin Yu had predicted... the Demon Pig Bar was completely different inside and out compared to when he arrived.

It was still surrounded by layers of people, but this time it wasn't just the original inhabitants of Gray Street Three who were there to watch the excitement—on the contrary, all the original inhabitants of Gray Street Three who had been watching the excitement earlier were now squatting against the wall with their heads in their hands.

The entire bar was surrounded by highly professional and elite camouflage personnel dressed in black Combat Suit and wearing tactical helmets. Each person was fully armed, with guns and weapons hanging from their Combat Suit and tactical belts.

The Truth Company logo and the symbols β, δ, and w printed on their vests also signify their identities—they are all professional teams from Truth Company's Security Department.

Upon seeing Lin Yu approach, the armed men, after recognizing his face, naturally did not stop him.

Instead, a person with a β symbol on their face and who looked like a squad leader approached them.

"Mr. Sherlock, the President and that gentleman are waiting for you inside."

He spoke respectfully, then gestured for them to proceed.

Three security guards ran forward and surrounded Lin Yu in a triangular formation, protecting him as he entered the bar.

The atmosphere inside the Demon Pig Bar was even more tense—the ones controlling the scene here were not only the elite squad bearing the Truth Company logo, but also the guards wearing light armor and bearing the Nightless City family crest!

All the tables, chairs, and benches had been piled up in the corner, turning the entire bar into a spacious structure resembling a practice room.

A huge metal panel was erected and opened in front of the glass display window, completely isolating it from the outside world.

The owner of the Demon Pig Bar, other staff members, and leaders of several large gangs sat at the opposite table against the wall.

Compared to the thugs and hooligans outside, their treatment was neither better nor worse.

Although they weren't squatting, they were all tied to chairs, each with a mournful face, Cold Cicada, utterly devoid of dignity, yet showing no intention of resistance.

As for why they dared not resist... that question also has an answer.

Looking at the gang members, whose total numbers were clearly reduced by about a quarter, the local bullies of Gray Street Three, and the Demon Pig Bar's floor, which had obviously been mopped but still retained a faint smell of blood, Lin Yu could easily guess what had happened here.

There are indeed some rebellious individuals on Gray Street Three who don't know their own limitations.

Then, they were wiped out by the elite squad and the guards in full-body Mecha.

At this moment, the surviving residents of Gray Street Three probably finally understood... that Lin Yu's sarcasm just now was not a joke.

If you were to seriously confront the truly powerful and Noble, Gray Street Three would be nothing but a joke.

What they call "face" is merely something the Noble left them because they were in a good mood.

In the middle of the bar, a single table stood there all alone.

The one sitting there, naturally, is...

Nightless Sky Huo Le and Paris.

Wearing a pure black double-breasted fitted coat and trousers, with his hair tied up, Nightless Sky Huo Le had Frost expression on his face. He sat upright with his hands clasped to his chest, exuding a chilling aura.

With Paris, who was sitting beside her and had a similarly sinister expression, sitting beside her, it seemed as if the two of them were about to give the order to massacre Gray Street Three.

Upon seeing Lin Yu, Nightless Sky Huo Le's expression softened somewhat.

However, seemingly due to the presence of President Paris and too many outsiders, Nightless Sky Huo Le did not show any emotional fluctuation. It simply looked at Lin Yu and said, "Sherlock, come here."

Lin Yu didn't refuse to give Nightless Sky Huo Le face, and stepped forward with a frivolous smile on his face.

"Oh dear, why have you come to a place like the Outer City? This is hardly a place for the Lord Huo Le."

"If you breathe in this filthy air from the Outer City, wouldn't you lose at least ten years of your lifespan?"

After trying so hard to keep a straight face for half a day, Nightless Sky Huo Le immediately broke down upon hearing Lin Yu's words.

She rolled her eyes. "Do you think I wanted to come? It's all because of you..."

"Last night when we parted at Wanjin Heavenly Seat, I told you to be careful... and just one night later, you became a wanted criminal by the Security Bureau —I went to great lengths to suppress the matter, have the warrant for your arrest removed, and then have Paris investigate where you are..."

"Then the intelligence came back that you were surrounded and attacked on Gray Street Three..."

Lin Yu interrupted Nightless Sky Huo Le: "Let me correct you, Lord Huo Le. It was I who besieged them all. You can ask them if you don't believe me."

The Butcher, the owner of the Demon Pig Bar, immediately spoke up from his chair, "Yes, I can attest to that! The valiant and mighty Mr. Sherlock single-handedly took down all the best fighters from Gray Street Three!"

Upon hearing this, Nightless Sky Huo Le turned to look at the Butcher. Paris spat, "You bastard, did Miss Huo Le give you permission to speak? -- Teach him a lesson."

"Clear."

A familiar voice came from Lin Yu. Stiller, who was mixed in with the armed men, stepped forward, took out a stun gun from his pocket, pointed it at the Butcher, and then pressed the button.

A flash of bluish-white light appeared, and the Butcher's body crackled and popped. Moments later, his screams and the smell of burning meat filled the air.

Stiller only stopped when the Butcher was emitting blue smoke from his mouth and nose and was almost unconscious.

At this moment, Nightless Sky Huo Le looked at Paris with a faint smile, "Paris... President Paris, I didn't let him speak, but didn't Sherlock speak up?"

"What, are you trying to emphasize to everyone here, including me, that the words of the person I trust, Sherlock, carry no weight?"

Nightless Sky Huo Le spoke, a stiff smile appeared on President Paris's face.

"How could I dare... Your Excellency!"

"I overstepped my bounds—come, let me learn my lesson."

Paris spoke, Stiller immediately replied again.

"Clear!"

Then Stiller scurried over and immediately shoved the stun gun into Paris's neck.

Paris's face flushed red, and he trembled violently, but he gritted his teeth and remained silent, shaking violently in the chair.

The Butcher was probably only shocked for about ten seconds before he was almost unconscious, but Paris endured it for about a minute.

Stiller ripped off the stun gun, and Paris bared his teeth and growled, "Ha!"

He then stood up and bowed respectfully to Sherlock: "Mr. Sherlock, I was very sorry for my rudeness!"

Lin Yu nodded slightly.

"It's okay, I didn't take it to heart."
