Hardy Empire 1945

　　　　 McKinsey No. 5 Club.

　　 This is a bar and club on the outside, only for private members, but secretly it is a high-end underground casino.

　　 It is very quiet during the day, but at night, it becomes very lively.

　　 A Lincoln car drove into the parking lot.

　　 The parking lot is about two hundred meters away from the private club, and it has parked dozens of cars.

　　 A middle-aged man in a black suit got out of the car.

　　He just came from where his lover is, and he is in a very good mood.

　　 "I want to win tonight."

　　 When closing the car door, two figures suddenly appeared behind him.

　　 "Boom~!"

　　 The wooden stick hit the man in the suit **** the head, and the guy rolled his eyes and fainted.

　　 "Matthew, you won't kill him?" Henry asked worriedly.

　　 Matthew chuckled, "Don't worry, I have a sense of measure."

　　 The two guys moved very fast, one frisked, and the other took out the rope from his body and tied the man.

　　 put a torn towel into his mouth, and put a black cloth bag on his head.

　　The movements are extremely skillful, and at first glance it is a habitual offender.

　　 opened the trunk of the car and threw the piggy-like guy in.

　　 After tidying up the suits, the two of them walked to the entrance of the clubhouse and walked several tens of meters forward. Under the street light, Henry opened the guy's wallet.

　　 Inside they found a delicate card, which was the membership card of McKinsey No. 5 Club.

There is a name behind 　　.

　　 looked in the wallet again and found a few business cards.

　　 Director of Credit Department of Los Angeles City Bank.

　　 Kevin Madion.

　　 Henry patted his wallet and smiled and said to Matthew: "Kevin Madion will be my cousin from now on."

　　 "It's horrible to be your cousin." Matthew smiled.

　　 There was a lot of cash in this guy's wallet. Henry looked at it. It was more than three hundred dollars, which is quite a lot.

　　 The two came to the door of the club, two tall guys stopped them, "Please show me your membership card, two gentlemen."

　　 Henry handed over Kevin Madion’s membership card.

　　The doorman took the card and looked at it, then looked at Henry, "This sir, this is Mr. Madion's membership card. I know Mr. Madion."

　　 "Kevin is my cousin, he said that there is something interesting here, so he gave me this card for me to play, and said that I can enter with this card, why not?" Henry frowned.

　　 "It turns out that this is the case. Those two gentlemen, please come in." The strong man asked him to come to the side and make a sign of please.

　　 Henry and Matthew walked two steps forward, then stopped and asked, "By the way, how do I get a membership card? If it's fun, we will get two too."

　　 "A deposit of USD 1,000, and a membership fee of USD 500 per year, you can enjoy membership services." The strong man said.

　　 Henry nodded, "Well, it's not expensive."

　　 This guy is just pretending.

　　 He can't even get 100 yuan from him.

　　 and Matthew walked into the clubhouse.

　　 The clubhouse is beautifully decorated,

　　 There are many customers.

　　Some are drinking coffee, some are chatting in the bar, the women here are all beautifully dressed, Henry and Matthew naturally know what they do.

　　 The two were not in a hurry and ordered two drinks at the bar.

　　 Observe the surrounding situation carefully.

　　 Most people here talk about gambling. Some are happy when they win, while others are pretending to be indifferent when they lose.

　　 A young woman puts her arms around an old man in a suit and leather shoes in her sixties. The two of them walked forward and said something to play with.

　　 The woman said to play big and small, the old man smiled and said that Texas Hold'em is more interesting.

　　 Henry and Matthew looked at each other, got up and followed the old man and the woman not far away, and walked to the side passage together.

　　 walked down a few steps, had already reached the underground, and came to a gate. Two bodyguards stood in front of the gate, and saw that a guest came and took the initiative to open the gate.

　　 There was a loud voice suddenly.

　　 This is the most attractive place of McKinsey No. 5 Club.

　　 Underground casino.

　　 The old man and the young woman went to change chips, Henry and Matthew also followed. When the old man changed chips, Henry and the two kept looking at the situation inside.

　　 After buying the window, they can see a lot of chips in the room behind the window, and the cash is put directly into the suitcase.

　　 The moment the suitcase was opened, it was full of banknotes.

　　 When it was their turn, Henry took out his cousin’s wallet, which contained more than three hundred dollars, and he unceremoniously replaced all of them with chips.

　　 and Matthew half and half.

　　 "Let's separate, we are playing while observing the situation here." Henry whispered.

　　 "No problem," Matthew answered.

　　 Three hours later, Henry and Matthew lost all their chips and had to rendezvous, and the two of them split their hands and left.

　　 Through these three hours of observation, the two have obtained a lot of useful information.

　　 Arrived in the parking lot, drove the Lincoln car of Henry's cousin, drove out of the clubhouse, and came to a newly rented yard in Xiacheng District.

　　 This yard used to be a small factory, located in a slum area, in a site controlled by the Jewish gang. The personnel here are complicated, and there are very few police officers. Hardy is planning to turn it into a temporary base.

　　 "Boss, the situation is almost the same."

　　 Henry smiled and said to Hardy after entering the door.

　　 Then Henry and Matthew told Hardy in detail about the entire process of the survey and drew a simple drawing.

　　 "The place to redeem the chips is here, and the money is piled in the box inside." Matthew pointed to a room on the drawing.

　　 "How many do you estimate?"

　　 Henry thought for a while,

　　 "When we left, there were about a hundred people in the casino. It was the busiest time. I have been paying attention to the window for redemption of chips. The turnover is estimated to be US$70,000 or 80,000."

　　 What came to Matthew's mind at this time.

　　 "By the way, boss, when I was playing cards, I listened to other gamblers chatting, saying that there will be a blackjack game the next night, and there will definitely be a lot of people to play at that time, and there will definitely be more cash at that time."

　　 Hold a blackjack contest.

　　 Hardy also thought it was a good time. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

　　 "Okay, you two rest. When Richard and Neal come back from the investigation, we will discuss who to start." Hardy said.

　　 Henry just stood up, and suddenly thought of something.

　　 "Boss, we caught a person in order to get in. He is the credit officer of a bank. Now that guy is still tied to the trunk, what do you think?" Henry asked.

　　 Hardy was taken aback.

　　 "You still tied someone?"

　　 "That club is a membership system, there is no alternative but this method."

　　 "I think it's okay to tie a stone and throw it into the Los Angeles river." Matthew said next to him.

　　 Hardy shook his head.

　　 "We can do bad things, but we can't be bad people."

　　 Matthew and Henry are a little confused. Isn't that the same thing?

Hardy looked at the two guys and said: "We are gangsters, robbery, loan sharking, selling illicit cigarettes and alcohol, and even killing people, all of which can be done, but we do this only for survival, the weak and the strong, the country is like this, but There is no need for us to kill people for no reason, that is evil in nature."

　　 Henry and Matthew nodded somewhat understanding.

　　 "What do you do with that guy, let him go now?" Matthew asked.

　　 "Of course I can't put it."

　　 Hardy directly vetoed it.

　　 "Throw him in the cellar first, tell him that he has been kidnapped and that he needs to pay a ransom before he can be released, and then release him after we finish our work."

　　 Henry and Matthew blinked.

　　Is the boss a good person doing this?

　　 What a good person!

　　 Hardy did this, really not to blackmail that little money, the main reason is not to let him divulge his whereabouts, and to ensure the smooth completion of the operation.
