The captain’s expression darkened right away and asked sternly, “Do you intend to defy orders?”
Elsa wanted to argue, but Wilbur got up from his seat at that moment and said calmly, “Do as the
captain says and head upstairs”
Elsa clenched her jaw and begrudgingly accepted IL.
Kenji smiled very subtly as he slowly rose from his seat.
They were led to the main hall of the bar. The captain looked at Elsa and said, “Turn in your pistol.”
“What do you mean?” Elsa was instantly nervous. She gripped her pistol tightly with both hands, but

“I admit that I went against protocol, but it’s a fact that there’s evidence of wrongdoing here,” she
protested.
The captain frowned and said, “It’s just gambling. The law enforcement will handle it. Don’t be so
stubborn. It’ll ruin your future. You’re still young. Don’t you want a promising career?”
Elsa shook her head because she was very disappointed. “Captain, you used to be my role model, but
look at you now. What have you become? What made you like this?”
The captain sighed. He ordered without any explanation, “Lower her weapon.”
Two of his subordinates immediately attempted to get her pistol.

The captain exclaimed angrily, “Elsa, I’m trying to protect you! Can’t you understand that?”
“I don’t!” Elsa shouted back
Kenji similed at that moment.
He knew that the ley member of the Lilith clan used his influence on the Criminal Investigation
Department. His safety was ensured. He also believed that Wilbur did not have the audacity to
challenge the authorities.
Furthermore, the head of the clan was on his way. They would leave, and that would be the end for
Wilbur.
If Elsa was lucky enough, she would be demoted as a clerk and lead a subdued life. Otherwise, she
could lose her job. That way, Kenj could manipulate her like a toy in the future.
The three gamblers were noticeably relaxed.
The captain looked at Elsa, who was furious and frustrated.
He understood that there was more to the paubling session than met the eye.
However, he was bound by orders from his higher-ups, and there was nothing he could do.

The saying ‘those in power can crush others was not a lie.
He said in a helpless tone, “Elsa, listen to me. There are some matters that we have no control over.”
Kenji suddenly burst into laughter. He looked at Wilbur and Elsa arrogantly and taunted, “So, what can
you two do now?”
Elsa glared at the arrogant Kenji and pointed her pistol at him angrily.
“Go ahead and shoot me. I don’t think you’ll shoot an unarmed person, especially in front of your
captain,” he taunted.
Wilbur stepped in to stop her and said, “Calm down.”
Kenji laughed smugly and asked, “What’s the matter? Are you chickening out too?”
Wilber responded to his taunts with a faint smile. Suddenly, loud noises of several belicopters could be
heard coming from
above the bar.
