Inside the car, the atmosphere was silent.
"Master, uh, where to now?"
Big Tank hesitated for a long time before finally daring to speak, glancing at Evan Lin, who sat silent in the passenger seat. He felt as if he'd just taken a stroll at death's door.
"Eastcourt District. Shaw Family Casino. Do you know where that is?"
Evan Lin finally spoke, his voice calm and slow.
"Shaw Family Casino? You mean the Dongting Tiger, Barry Shaw?" Big Tank froze for a second, then looked at Evan Lin with extra caution, heart pounding. "That Dongting Tiger is no joke. Even though the Shaw family's power isn't what it used to be compared to Imperial Grand, they're still not to be underestimated. Plus, the Shaw family has deep connections after years running things in Eastcourt District."
Big Tank wasn't sure why Evan Lin suddenly brought this up, but a vague sense of unease crept into his heart.
"Drive. We're going to the Shaw Family Casino."
Evan Lin closed his eyes to rest, ignoring Big Tank's concerns.
"Should I call a few brothers to come along?" Big Tank asked, but seeing Evan Lin beside him, he frowned slightly, then didn't dare say more and just floored the gas pedal.
The car sped down the street.
All the way there, Big Tank's heart pounded wildly—charging alone into Shaw family turf was practically suicide.
Big Tank considered whether to notify Victor Yu, since Victor was now basically the Imperial Grand boss.
But seeing Evan 'Nine Mysteries' Lin sitting beside him, perfectly calm, Big Tank didn’t dare make a move—he was terrified of provoking this monster.
He’d witnessed Evan’s methods firsthand. Even if he doubted Evan’s talk about making all of Brightsea his dog’s bone, deep down, Big Tank couldn’t help feeling a strange sense of anticipation.
"Master, what exactly are we going there to do?"
Outside, dusk was falling. The sunset burned across the horizon, painting the sky in fiery colors.
"Collect a debt."
Evan Lin spat out two words and said nothing more.
Eastcourt District lay east of Brightsea City. It wasn’t as bustling as Nanyang, but with most outsiders crowded into this area, the place was a chaotic mix of all sorts.
