Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Chapter 2771 King of Los Angeles

"Mr. Chen, you're here." Li Qing had just finished cleaning the room upstairs. When he saw Chen Zhao's arrival, he immediately came over to say hello.

"Sister Qing." Chen Zhao smiled and nodded.

At this moment, two angry gangsters came in outside the hotel.

Chen Zhao and Ethan are both quite discerning.

Know that these are not just gangsters, they are probably gang members.

"Who's in charge here?" a gangster yelled.

When Li Qing saw this situation, he did not go to communicate with the gangster, but pulled Xiao He: "Little girl, come with me, I will take you to see your room."

It is enough that Ethan and Chen Zhao are here, there is no need for her to do anything.

"Ah...oh...ok."

Xiaohe took a few more worried glances.

Chen Zhao and Ethan also disagreed.

Ethan can be considered a veteran.

He has seen this scene many times.

"Hey kids, this is not where you should be."

"Old guy, do you know who we are?"

One minute later...

Chen Zhao and Ethan each picked up a gangster with a bruised nose and face and threw it out the door.

“Ethan, why would such trash come to your hotel to cause trouble?”

Ethan is somewhat well-known around here. He has been a soldier and has been on the streets.

Although he is now safe and sound, he is still considered a celebrity in this area.

Basically, everyone in the black and white circles knows about Ethan.

Even a gangster would not come to him to cause trouble.

That's why Chen Zhao was wondering why two blind gangsters appeared.

Even if they are members of a nearby gang, usually when they join a gang, the old man will explain to them what they can and cannot provoke, and where they can and cannot go.

People like Ethan, judging by their appearance, are already the type that cannot be messed with.

In the early years, anyone who came here to cause trouble basically ended up in the hospital.

In recent years, it has converged a lot.

But a beating is inevitable.

And Ethan is a pretty well-connected person.

He can name everyone from local police officers to street vendors.

In this neighborhood, everyone can sell Yi Sen’s thin noodles.

That's why Chen Zhao was surprised that there were blind idiots coming here to make trouble.

"The gangs in this neighborhood are not peaceful recently. It seems that the original gang has dispersed and now a new gang has taken over this neighborhood. Some time ago, some people came to my hotel to harass the guests and wanted to sell JN and DP, even some foreign guests were defrauded of the casino and were defrauded out of money. After I found out, I drove those people away, and then gang members came to my place one after another to cause trouble. He said helplessly.

Although he has many connections, some things cannot be solved by relying on connections.

"The original gang disbanded?"

Chen Zhao was a little surprised that Chen Zhao, the original gang in this neighborhood, really knew about it.

Originally a subordinate gang to the gang controlled by Mowgli.

Because of Chen Zhao, this gang has always been quite conservative in its actions in this neighborhood.

Basically this gang's business is to open some underground casinos.

There are also some regulated firearms transactions.

Even street girls are not part of their business.

But according to Ethan, the new gang seems to have deviated from its original business scope, or to be precise, it has expanded its business scope.

Chen Zhao knew what Mowgli's real source of wealth was.

So he rarely touches things.

To be precise, he does not need these things to make wealth.

For example, the business he conducted in some controlled neighborhoods was mostly to control gang members, not to make money.

Another example is that he controls some street girls. To say it is control, it is better to say that the street girls are attached to his influence.

This can be regarded as some tacit understanding reached between Mowgli and the local Los Angeles police.

While Mowgli controlled local gangs in Los Angeles, he also reduced the number of vicious crimes on the surface.

This is a mutually beneficial transaction.

Although it is not visible to the public, it is in the interests of both parties.

But now there is a problem with the situation in this neighborhood.

Gangs no longer reduce the incidence of vicious crimes.

On the contrary, vicious cases are being created.

For example, setting traps for foreign tourists and trapping immortals are already very serious and vicious cases.

Another example is entering certain public places, such as hotels and other places, to sell contraband.

This is putting something shady on the table.

At the same time, it also means that the situation that Mowgli had worked so hard to manage was directly destroyed.

Once the tacit understanding between him and the Los Angeles police is broken, it means that the two sides will confront each other.

Chen Zhao didn't understand why Mowgli did this.

Or……

"Ethan, did something happen to Mowgli?" Chen Zhao asked.

Ethan also knew Mowgli. Chen Zhao would have known Mowgli through Ethan as a middleman.

Ethan also knew Mowgli's life trajectory.

"I don't know the specific situation, but in the past two months, the crime rate in Los Angeles has increased significantly, and it has increased a lot."

"Any more information?"

"Chen, you can be considered successful in your career now. There are some things you should not get involved in."

Chen Zhao narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Ethan.

"I still like a peaceful Los Angeles." Chen Zhao said with a smile.

There was one sentence that Chen Zhao didn't say.

He never felt that Mowgli was the underground king of Los Angeles.

He is the underground king of Los Angeles!

Chen Zhao has always felt that Los Angeles is his territory.

Not Mowgli, nor anyone else.

Ethan was silent for a while, looked at Chen Zhao and said, "There is a gun shop owner in Ami neighborhood. He should be able to give you some information."

"Thank you." Chen Zhao said with a smile.

Ethan looked at Chen Zhao and said seriously: "If you can really do it, then restore Los Angeles to its past tranquility."

"By the way, help me look after that girl. She also has some troubles in China." Chen Zhao stood up and said, "I'm going to say hello to Sister Qing."

"As long as she is not your little lover, no one will threaten her safety here."

Chen Zhao found Li Qing: "Sister Qing, I have something to tell you."

"About Yiyi Nan?" Li Qing was keenly aware of what Chen Zhao was about to say.

"I crippled your eldest nephew. Not only his cultivation, he is basically out of balance from the neck down."

"I'm not surprised." Li Qing's reaction was very calm, as if he had expected it: "Their family are all such extreme people. Why do you think I went abroad? It's not because the Maoshan sect dealt with me, it was them The people in my family dealt with me in order to get the Qingyi Sect’s classics from me, but they didn’t care about family ties at all.”
