Chapter 696 Wards Set Up

As the Capital of Sex, Aiello had many beautiful women.

But the city wasn’t exclusively centered around prostitution.

Food, clothes, accommodation, and transportation were necessary in everyday life. A city without enough infrastructure couldn’t have supported a population of hundreds of thousands of people.

Aiello was called the Capital of Sex because of the huge ratio of prostitutes in town. The tax they paid took up about forty percent of the total revenues of the city. Dark sides were inevitable in such a service industry.

However, in order to attract more customers, the gangs in this place were all very careful and tried to cover up what they did, so that it wouldn’t be brought to light.

It was both a choice based on their intrinsic nature and the demand of the lord of the city.

So… while there were a lot of gangs here, they were all well-hidden, and it was even more difficult to look for the critical personnel than it was in other cities.

Roland didn’t know much about intelligence gathering, but he had an ability that was very useful: money. Two silver coins were gently laid on the table. The bartender looked around and, seeing that nobody paid attention to him, quickly took the coins away.

“You’re truly generous, my friend. Ask whatever you want to know.”

The bartender didn’t look at Roland but simply prepared the wine while speaking in a low voice.

The bar was quite noisy. His voice couldn’t be heard by anyone else.

“I’m looking for Dwayne Johnson.”

The bartender’s hands trembled, and he almost spilled the wine.

“Please wait for me at the back door.”

Roland rose and went to the back door.

There was a rather huge tree behind the bar. Roland leaned against the tree and waited for a while. Then the bartender finally came.

“Sir, you can’t ask about Dwayne Johnson for no good reason.”

Roland snapped another silver coin at him.

The bartender subconsciously accepted it. He seemed to be hesitating in the darkness.

“You’ve taken three silver coins from me. It’s unreasonable if you don’t tell me anything.”

Roland pointed at the daggers on his belt.

Regular professionals wouldn’t be scared of a lame Rogue like Roland, but in the eyes of an ordinary person, he was no different from a villain.

The bartender hesitated for a moment and said, “I don’t know where Dwayne Johnson is. He has a lot of enemies and always lives in different places.”

Roland listened in silence, knowing that the bartender hadn’t finished yet.

“But I know something that few people are aware of.” The bartender stepped close and said in an even lower voice, “There’s a popular prostitute named Dorothy in Forest Fawns. She’s beautiful and alluring. Dwayne Johnson is her regular guest and visits her every couple of days. You can wait for him there.”

“Thanks.” Roland patted his shoulder.

Forest Fawns was a very fancy nightclub. Roland had noticed it when he looked for a hotel.

It had the greatest advertisement board of the city and the greatest traffic.

Stepping on a red carpet, Roland entered the building that appeared to be a small palace.

It was safe to say that even the decorations and furniture in the royal palace of Hollevin weren’t as beautiful and expensive as those here.

The glistening wooden floor, the large candles that were burning on the wall, and the crystals that dangled from the ceiling and reflected colorful light.

The stairs at the center directed the guests to the two sides of the building. Many girls and women were smiling and waiting for their guests on the second floor, before they led them to certain rooms The smell of perfumes permeated the air.

It was quite strong, but not disgusting at all.

The perfumes must be great products too, or their smell wouldn’t have been so comfortable.

The decorations were enough to indicate the luxuriousness of the nightclub.

The guests spent a fortune here at night and left in the next morning in delight and satisfaction.

Hardly had Roland stepped into the place when someone greeted him.

She was a woman with an excellent figure, but unfortunately, her face was mediocre. Of course, if she were both beautiful and luscious, she would’ve been waiting for a guest in the room instead of working as a receptionist.

“Dear guest, masks aren’t allowed here.”

The woman leaned toward Roland and spoke with a smile. Roland put a gold coin in her hand. “Look carefully. I’m not wearing any mask.”

Looking at the gold coin in her hand, the woman giggled, “Indeed you are not. I wonder, which friend do you want to talk to?”

“I can only talk to them?” “What do you think?” Her voice was in an obviously teasing tone. “I’m told that there’s a lady named Dorothy here who’s good at helping men solve their problem.”

“Hahaha, you have great taste.” The woman grabbed Roland’s arm and led him upstairs. “She’s the best woman in Forest Fawns, and in this city.”

“Is she available?”

“Of course she is.”

As they talked, they had already reached the second floor, and they were moving to the third floor.

“Shouldn’t the most popular girl be the one that’s hardest to meet? Don’t I need to make an appointment?”
