Chapter 5 (2/2)
The newcomers who first came to Sasimu were somewhat surprised by the small size of the city.
From what they had heard, this was a city of evil, where there was absolute freedom, and almost all kinds of big men were closely related to it.
But when they got off the boat, they found that the place was rather small.
After landing, they did not find anything special. On the contrary, many people came to greet them warmly in different languages.
They didn't know. They thought they were travelling.
Those who had been to Sasimu gathered together, skilled in driving in the crowd, and soon disappeared without a trace.
“Hey, these newcomers are going to enjoy themselves in the harbor. This will be the first lesson they learned in Sasimu!”
“Hha, I don't know how many people can survive smoothly.”
“Maybe tomorrow we'll see some good-looking new people selling their a.s.ses in bars.”
Qing Tian, cooperating with several informants, successfully dispelled the doubts of a group of newcomers and helped them find a place of residence.
Of course, the price was not low.
“Oh, no, sir. New people can't sell things in this street. They have to pay the protection fee to the eldest brother in the street first.”
“That's not possible. You have to go by yourself.”
“……I, I can go too, but then the price will be……”
“Sir, my son is still young. He shouldn't be a hostage. Please, sir…”
“Well, well, son, wait for me.”
Several informants were forced to carry things to pay protection fee by these people, especially a white man who was the leader. He was crying sadly, as if he could not keep his son's life as soon as he left.
“Dad, you must come back early.” Qing Tian cried loudly.
“Don't cry. Cry again and I'll kill you.” While coveting the beauty of the young child, the newcomers secretly warned themselves not to do too much, and it was not too late to do so when the child's father came back.
*Not sure: 这几个新人一边垂涎于这个年轻孩子的美貌，一边又暗暗告诫自己不能做的太过，等这孩子的父亲回来，利用价值没有了之后再动手不迟。
“I, I know, I'll be good.” Qing Tian felt sorry for himself and shrinked his head.
Midnight.
“Come on, let's go. These people only have a pair of pants left.”
“Tsk, you're too late, but the bar should be open by now.”
Qing Tian kneaded his wrists, these people were not so good at knotting that he could easily untangle them. If these informants were a little later, he would have done it himself.
Almost all the clothes, weapons and goods of these newcomers had been ransacked by them, and tomorrow they will wake up to find that even where they live is a warehouse of a certain individual.
They'll have nothing.
It was cheap for them, and it was disgusting to think of these people's gazes.
Qing Tian got a box of cigarettes
These cigarettes were valuable enough to supply Wu Yun with chocolate for months.
Qing Tian, instead of carrying a box to the bar, hid the box and took out a few packs of cigarettes from it.
Even if Wu Yun liked chocolate, he should control the amount of sweets he eats, otherwise his teeth will be in trouble.
Today, there were more people coming to bars, because almost all of them made a lot of money from the newcomers.
“Hha, I was cheated and left a pair of trousers.”
“d.a.m.n, you're okay. I was bought for a few months and stabbed in the a.s.s for a few months, but I didn't get hard for half a year. “
*Not sure: 老子当年可是被人买了几个月，捅了那小子几个月的屁股，后来半年都没能硬起来。”
“It's better than losing your life, but the quality of the newcomers is getting worse and worse recently.”
“That's right. There's no credibility at all. I think it's great to have a gun. It's all outdated.”
*Not sure: ”没错没错，一点信用都没有，以为有把枪就了不起，都是过时的货了。”
“d.a.m.n it.” In one corner of the bar, a young man's face flushed. “These people are going too far.”
“Don't make trouble.” The colleague on the side held him down. “You were just cheated of some money. This is such a place. If a newcomer can't get through it, they won't be fit to survive here. ”
“This is a gathering place of mud.” The young man choked and choked. “What the h.e.l.l are they?”
“Shh, drink your wine, and we'll go when the employer comes out.”
Qing Tian put the prepared cigarettes on the bar.
A small bartender quickly opened a pack and pulled out a cigarette to identify it.
“It's a good cigarette. It's pure.” The bartender exclaimed. “I heard before that a newcomer came with a box of handmade cigarettes, but it seemed to have been done in advance.”
”Needless to say, I want to exchange chocolates.” Qing Tian had no intention of talking to each other.
“Chocolate, all the goods we just s.h.i.+pped have been delivered to you.” The bartender shrugged. “People like cigarettes and wine these days. Chocolate has to wait.”
“What?” Qing Tian froze for a moment, “But didn't you send chocolate once recently?”
“No, we do it every day, all the time.” The bartender affirmed.
d.a.m.n it!
It must have been secretly eaten by Wu Yun, and he must've told him to send it once!
Qing Tian suddenly felt angry, “Forget it, I don't want to exchange chocolates, exchange books.”
“What magazines do you want?” The bartender smiled vaguely. “There are all kinds of adult magazines of all colors, and films.”
“I don't need those. I want a book of weapons instructions, preferably.” Qing Tian was talking when he was. .h.i.t behind by a pa.s.ser-by who watched as he was about to fall out of his seat.
The position of the bar was very high, from here you could clearly see the situation of the bar below, even the seats were very high.
Falling from there you wouldn't bleed, but your head may have to faint for a few more seconds.
“Be careful.”
When Qing Tian thought he was going to hit the ground, his head seemed to be sufficiently covered, his body was pushed up, and his body was balanced again.
But before he could stand still, the cigarette in his arms was smoked out by one hand on him.
He looked back and saw a man in a trench coat and a hat, holding his cigarette in his hand, and had just put his foot back.
Apparently, it was the man who put his foot under his neck to prevent him from falling.
“That's your reward, kid.” The man in the trench coat lit himself a cigarette. The smoking posture was very beautiful, which seemed to be out of step with the noisy bar.
Qing Tian saw the other party's pair of brown eyes when he was smoking.
“You…”
The trench coat man took off his hat with one hand and showed his beautiful blonde hair. There was a scar at the corner of his eye, but the scar did not destroy his handsome face. On the contrary, it increased his unruly temperament.
He looked about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, with a distinct sense of mixed blood on his face, and was an easily fascinating fellow.
Although the clothes were totally different, Qing Tian would never forget anyone he meets once.
There can be no mistake.
This man was the one who killed Dushe!
“Come out, count.”
The mercenaries and bounty hunters in the corner had gathered around the man when he appeared, looking warily at Qing Tian on the side.
“Well, let's go to church next. The price is good.” The man went to Qing Tian's side, and clasped his hat on Qing Tian's head. He lowered his head, smiled, and his voice was hoa.r.s.e. “I sent a chocolate cake to Wu Yun. Say h.e.l.lo, Mr. Gift.”
The author has something to say:
There's a new cover.
Although I may not be able to do daily updates, I can still do it the next day (*^▽^*)~
ps, I don't have any good recommendations on the same subject matter , but I still have anime with similar subjects, such as “GANGSTA”, “Black Lagoon”, “Jormungand” and a little more abusive is “Banana Fish”. The first three movies are at Bilibili. For the latter one you may need to find resources. ~Thank the angels for voting for me.~
(The author then thanks readers who have given them gifts)
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard! ^ _ ^
Translator's notes (most important is #3. #2 is a recap of this chapter)
1. When the author referred to the guns, they removed the word ”pistol” from the MK23 offensive-pistol. Probably to circ.u.mvent some form of censors.h.i.+p law, but I added the full name of the pistol and wrote this here so that it's less intrusive (because it's just a minor detail).
2. This chapter was kind of difficult to translate, there were so many sentences I could not understand, weird jumps in time and place, and I couldn't really follow. So, if you are still confused as to what happened, here's a recap:
A new s.h.i.+p with many different people comes to Sasimu. We cut to WY (Wu Yun) who says to QT (Qing Tian) that he has to learn how to use a gun. Then, WY goes to sleep, but not before QT asks him about himself (WY). WY doesn't answer, and QT thinks he's (WY) mad. He wants to buy him chocolate, so he teams up with some informants to make some money off the newcomers (the new people who came on the boat) by looting them (their guns, cigarettes, clothes, etc.). How do they do it? Emm…. they… show them some place to stay (a warehouse, which I presume is the Priest's property). Then they say they can't sell things on the street before they pay a protection fee to the street boss. Then…I think that QT pretends to be one of the informant's kids. Then the informants go and deliver the protection fee. The newcomers then kidnap (or at least tie him up) QT. Then…it's really not clear, but what's important is that QT schemed, made some money to buy chocolate, the bartender (probably not the Bartender w/a capital B) was all out of stock, someone b.u.mped into QT, he was about to fall, but ?? catches him with his foot. It's the gong! He's a count/earl, apparently.
3. I'm translating as I'm reading, so if you read the first three chapters before the 12th of July, then you'll know I hadn't capitalised the names of the Bartender, Doctor & Priest then. These three people are referred by their profession. As I understand it, there are multiple bartenders who work under THE Bartender (the one who's 2m tall and might be russian). If you see ”bartender” without a capital B, it's probably an unimportant character. If I change something in the future, I'll add a note at the bottom of the chapter saying I edited things.
Thank you for your understanding.
