Old Gods, Rapid-Fire Guns, and Prohibition

Chapter 133 [Cold Iron Guard]

The North Sea Star is indeed Ethan's territory now.

After Sandro's death, the first inheritance Ethan received was this hotel.

If Sandro left behind a vast empire, the Star of the North Sea is undoubtedly the brightest diamond in this empire.

Ethan naturally got the news of Frank's move-in first.

But he did not take any action immediately.

He also had a lot of his own things to do. The modified version of "The Persistence of Memory" was finally about to be completed, and he had to deliver it quickly.

After all, not only did Jackson need the painting, but more importantly, he had promised Pubol.

Pubol helped him a lot.

He also had a busy schedule the next day and had to go to the dock to comfort the workers in the morning.

Among Sandro's vast legacy, the pier is undoubtedly the most important part.

Sandro previously controlled several of Winster's most important shipping routes. He had many workers under him and was also very influential in the union.

This is also the reason why he was able to gradually enter the upper class of Winston and make friends with those politicians.

Now Ethan naturally inherited this part of the power.

He must first establish good relations with the workers, and then with the trade union.

If everything goes well, maybe in a few years, with his hard work, he will be able to run for parliament.

As for the afternoon, he still had to go to Winster University to teach, meet with El, and chat with Gustav.

So, he was really busy, and relatively speaking, Frank, the uninvited guest, seemed really not that important.

But the undercurrent is always surging.

The news that Frank, the uninvited guest, had arrived and disrupted Ethan's situation at the Evans family spread in the shortest possible time.

Heini still knew about this.

The new royal power was not shaken, but it was inevitable that many people would whisper in the dark.

So much so that John Holt couldn't help but call Ethan.

"Ethan..."

"What's the matter, John?"

"I want to ask..."

"what?"

"About the meeting."

"Isn't the meeting scheduled to start at 9:00 AM the day after tomorrow?"

"Yeah, I'm just worried you'd be too busy and forget. So...see you then?"

"see you then."

For the next day, Ethan acted step by step in an orderly manner.

And Frank was also enjoying the rare sunshine that Winston had seen these days.

As if sensing the glory of him, a man from the royal capital, even the sun became warmer day by day.

In the afternoon, Frank was already lying in the sun by the swimming pool on the rooftop of North Sea Star.

Even though the wind is still a little cold and noisy today.

He didn't seem to feel it.

While feeling the sea breeze, he drank wine and read the best-selling book he brought from the royal capital.

At this time, his subordinate, the third strongest warrior in the God of War Real Name, and the family guard Yang Kesi quietly came over to report: "Master, there is someone outside who wants to see you. He said he is from the Prohibition Bureau and his name is Marvin."

"The Prohibition Bureau? What do you want from me? No."

Frank refused directly. In the eyes of others, the Prohibition Bureau might be a powerful figure, but to him, it was nothing.

As for Ethan, he was very interested in meeting him.

He had already heard about Ethan's deeds.

An artist who returned from the royal capital, wreaked havoc in the underground world of Winster, even overthrowing the Saints who had stood in Winster for decades.

As expected, Wangdu is a good place. Even a country bumpkin from such a small place can be trained to become a talent.

In fact, he had been waiting for Ethan's counterattack. He wanted to see what a character like him could do. Unfortunately, he waited until dusk and nothing happened.

It seemed that the guy was frightened by the reputation of Wangdu Evans.

It's inevitable. No matter how powerful they are in a small place, they are just loaches in a pond. They have never really seen the surging sea. Just one look at the back of the legendary creature in the sea will scare them so much that they dare not move.

However, Frank is not going to give up.

After playing a few games in the casino that evening, Frank returned to his room with the beautiful woman he met at the hotel.

The woman was quite pretty and not just an ordinary prostitute. He had a very happy night there.

So much so that he overslept a little the next day.

Because he had agreed with William and others to visit the Evans family at eight o'clock the next morning, but he did not show up.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the Evans family welcomed another person——

Bob.

Bob Olde.

Now Bob is no longer an unknown person in Winster.

Ever since winning the legendary Four Ships case, his reputation has rivaled that of Winston litigation king Duvall.

News about him is often reported in newspapers.

So everyone in the Evans family knew his face.

He is also very clear about his identity.

He is Ethan's most loyal hound.

His arrival proved that Ethan was still not ready to give up.

"Bob...Lawyer, I advise you to leave my house because a big shot from the capital will be arriving soon. If you don't want to be embarrassed..."

George's eldest son Anthony now stood up and tried to drive Bob away.

But Bob ignored him and just looked at his watch and said, "Mr. Ethan hopes to get all the contracts of the Evans family before nine o'clock."

"Impossible, he won't get anything!"

This irritated William a little, and he started yelling at Bob.

"Don't worry, we still have an hour. If possible, give me a cup of coffee, no sugar, thank you."

Bob just spoke calmly and straightened his colorful tie.

Bob's words made the Evans family look at each other in confusion.

But Frank hadn't arrived yet.

Why was he late?

North Sea Star.

Frank, who had just woken up from a hangover, couldn't help but curse inwardly. He always felt that there was something wrong with the alcohol he drank last night.

He climbed out of bed, ignoring the woman still sleeping beside him. He poured himself some water and shouted outside, "Yankes, what time is it? Are we going to be late?"

But Yonkers didn't respond.

This made Frank frown. Yanks had always been very well-behaved. Could it be that after leaving the capital, he started to look down on him?

He shouted a few more times, and finally had no choice but to push open the door and walk out.

Then he saw Yanks sitting on the sofa, motionless, as if he was asleep.

"Hey, Yanks, you lowly ..."

Frank growled and went to push him, but found that Yanks' body was as cold as iron.

His whole face was pale as if all the blood had been drained out.

He is dead.

"Do not……"

Frank couldn't help but take a step back.

Now his blood was as cold as iron.
