41: Chapter 41 The Strike, the Retaliation Begins

Blood flowed across the floor, forming a jarring pattern.

Moriarty was stunned by the scene. He regained his senses and ran to Kashala's side to lift him up.

"Robinson, call an ambulance! Call an ambulance!" Moriarty pressed down on the bleeding wound and roared at Robinson to call for help.

Kashala pulled weakly on Moriarty.

"Moriarty, I once regretted knowing you, but now I think knowing you is okay. If there is a next life, and we can be born into an ordinary family, I will definitely be a good brother to you."

Kashala spoke in broken sentences.

"Stop talking, just stop talking. Hold on a little longer, the ambulance will be here soon. Don't speak, save your strength."

"Moriarty, I have no family left. They are all dead. Overnight... I hate them. Moriarty, I beg you, please, you must kill them. I beg you. Let this be the last thing I ask of you before I die. Promise me, okay? Please, promise me."

Kashala was struggling to speak. He gripped Moriarty's clothes tightly, as if he wouldn't be able to rest in peace if Moriarty didn't agree.

Seeing his request, Moriarty nodded heavily.

"Rest assured, I will definitely help you get your revenge. Go in peace."

After saying this, Kashala's hand dropped to the floor. He closed his eyes and passed away.

Moriarty held Kashala in the middle of the road, filled with many emotions.

The ambulance took Kashala away. Moriarty returned to the bar and changed his clothes.

"Brother Robinson, I've let you see something unsightly, but he was my friend after all. I couldn't bear to watch him die in front of me. I had my men look into what happened to him recently. I discovered his family was wiped out overnight by the Victor Family, and he couldn't handle the blow, which is why he came to me."

"He directed all his hatred at me, yet in the end, he asked for my help. It seems contradictory, but I couldn't refuse. Perhaps I still have some pity for him in my heart."

Moriarty looked a little older in that moment.

"Brother Robinson, I have a favor to ask of you. Can you join me in making the Victor Family disappear from Zhili Country forever?"

"I know this request is abrupt, but could you do it as a favor to me? I, Moriarty, have never asked anyone for anything in all these years. Today, I want to beg you. Please, join me in destroying the Victor Family."

"If you are unwilling..."

"Brother Moriarty, what are you saying? You don't need to ask me for something like this. You could have just told me. Our relationship doesn't require the word 'beg'. Since you want to wipe out the Victor Family, then let's get to work and destroy them. It just so happens that it will clear the path for our future."

Zhang Shan interrupted Moriarty.

Hearing Zhang Shan say this, Moriarty was uncharacteristically speechless.

"I cannot say anything else. I can only say thank you."

"No need for formalities, Brother. Destroying the Victor Family is a big deal. We need to plan it out and map out what we need. I can provide the weapons, but it's agreed! I charge for weapons."

"Haha, no problem. As for money, there is absolutely no problem. Brother, I don't have much, but I have plenty of money."

"Evil capitalist," Gu Nan said, pretending to be angry.

Hahaha, Moriarty felt like Otter was going to make him die of laughter.

Moriarty dismissed everyone else, and the four of them began to plan.

"First, we must take out the businesses the Victor Family runs in the shadows. Actually, I want to blow up their secret bases without anyone knowing. I will leave the bombing of the secret bases to Otter. Otter, take a group of people and follow Victoria to find a suitable opportunity to take out their nest."

"Brother Moriarty, you are responsible for taking out all their underground businesses. Since these businesses aren't official, they won't dare to call the police and will have to swallow this bitter pill."

"I will be responsible for cutting off their economic lifeline. We will destroy the Victor Family within three days."

They divided the work clearly and got to it immediately.

The three of them maintained a high level of coordination, acting fast, accurately, and ruthlessly.

Moriarty ordered Gustav to smash the businesses, and every hit was accurate.

Inside the Victor Manor, Victoria slammed a cup onto the floor.

"Go, find out who has been messing with our businesses! Find out who is so tired of living. Once you find them, kill them directly. Do not show any mercy." Victoria roared.

"M-Madam, our family's capital chain has broken. Now our funds can't keep up, and the company is facing the danger of bankruptcy. What should we do? Madam?"

"Ahhhhh! Who? Who is messing with us? Why were all our businesses smashed overnight, and why did our capital chain suddenly break? Have you found out who is behind this?"

"M-Madam, we can't find out who did it at all. They run away as soon as they smash them. They don't give us any chance to react."

"Go check, go check, hurry up and check! What are you waiting for here?"

Watching the Victor Family decline day by day, the three of them sat in the bar drinking champagne to celebrate.

"Now, it's time to let Victoria know who is behind this. Brother, please have your men tell Victoria. We will just wait here quietly for her arrival. Oh, right, I also need to trouble you to clear the bar for a day. It wouldn't be good if we scared the customers."

In less than half an hour, Victoria arrived aggressively with her people.

"Moriarty, is it you playing tricks? You have such nerve to smash my businesses."

"Madam Victoria, you are joking. My courage isn't given by you. Why wouldn't I dare? How is it? Are you satisfied with this result?"

"Moriarty, I am going to kill you, kill you!"

"Heh, Madam Victoria, can you not see the current situation clearly? Do you still have the qualifications to clamor with me?"

"Heh, Moriarty, don't underestimate me. Even if I have fallen now, my father and son will not let you go. Just wait for their revenge."

"Madam Victoria, you should worry about yourself right now. After all, your father and son are not by your side. No matter what you say, I am not afraid!"

"Madam Victoria, you drove Kashala to his death and killed his family. This broke the rules of the underworld. 'The trouble does not extend to the wife and children' — that is the rule, but you did not follow it."

"I am the rule. Do I need to follow it? Besides, that trash Kashala, he deserved to die."

Smack. Moriarty stood up abruptly, his scarlet eyes glaring at Victoria.
