Screams

After putting the ticket in his pocket, Arthur walked over to Vitor again and asked his second question.

"And then. I want to know everything about Carlos, the mayor's son. News, bad or good, if he has someone with him, relationships ... and most importantly: if I kill him, what is the repercussion?" Arthur's tone was growing colder and more murderous. Memories of the torture came to his mind and stoked his phantom pain, which he struggled to ignore.

"Are you talking about that piece of garbage? Definitely one of the worst people who ever went through this city! And it's because I've been in crime for some time, but I've never seen anyone worse than him. He has countless cases of rape, kidnapping, embezzlement of money and the bill doesn't stop there. The worst thing is the political schemes that his father was involved in before he died, and they all involved Carlos's protection, so killing him would be very difficult, but not impossible. If no one knows who killed him or if that person has a stronger power behind him, the task is much easier! "Each word was filled with disgust and anger by Carlos. He himself had to bow his head to that pig.

'The task has actually gotten a little more difficult to perform. That must be the reason for the difficulty of the task. But nothing that a light murder does not solve. ' Arthur started to be thoughtful, but decided to leave this matter to resolve later. There were a few days to go before the transfer of goods, so it was better to leave the future for the future.

He then began to untie Vitor's tapes and set him free.

"Thank you, boss! Thank you very much!" His insults for Arthur disappeared and all that was left was worship, even if it was insincere.

"No problem, man! I was just looking for some information. Did you really think I was going to kill you? And also, if any employee asks, tell me it's closed today. And tomorrow too. Otherwise, you're going to learn how to use a fire extinguisher in practice." Arthur spoke in an ironic and playful tone.

Vitor did not understand Arthur's words very well, but he agreed anyway.

But even before he could taste the freedom, Arthur punched him hard on the chin, making him pass out again.

"Do you think I'm dumb? Too stupidness for a single person, Jeez!" Arthur was helpless with Vitor's thought process. It is very idiotic to think that you will get rid of it that easily.

Arthur then took the office key and locked Vitor already passed out there. Tomorrow night he would come back to see how he was doing. He then left the club and left it unlocked, but took Vitor's key. It was not necessary to close the doors because other employees would have the same key, but only he had the office key, so there were not many problems.

The sky was already darkening, announcing the night to everyone. Arthur walked calmly through the streets while singing and listening to music, as if that place was his home.

After crossing the entire shopping center, he finally arrived at the entrance to the residential center. As it was the beginning, the streets were more empty, because either people were at home or in the Park.

After walking a little further, Arthur heard some screams between the music breaks and was curious about what was going on. He then took off the headphones and paid close attention to where the sound was coming from.

He then turned his head to the east and heard more screaming, then hurried over to it. His mentality about helping other people was still in doubt. His thinking in the face of this kind of situation was leaning towards Machiavelli's philosophy.

Only a few dozen meters later, Arthur saw the scene that was taking place. A girl was surrounded by some men, and she was desperately trying to scream for help, but it seemed that no one was listening. Men were just amused by the situation, and they increasingly surrounded her.

Arthur immediately understood the situation that was occurring, so he walked and became much closer to all of them, but in a way that no one could see him, but he could hear everything.

"Look what a beauty is in front of us. Really the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." A tall, fierce-looking man who appeared to be the leader was the first to speak. His name was Ulysses.

"We were lucky today, boss. It would be a bonus if she was a virgin! Hahaha" Another man, shorter and with a thin voice, spoke and laughed hysterically like a psychopath.

"Virgins are delicious, boss! We can't let her go, you know!" This time it was a tall, young-looking guy who spoke. He must be the gang's rookie trying to impress the boss.

Meanwhile, all the other 4 agreed and laughed like the sick people they are.

Each word terrified the girl to the bone, making her tremble a lot. "Someone help me, please!" His words were increasingly weak and tearful, lost in the desperation of the situation.

"There's no use asking for help, baby! No one around these hours. You chose a bad time to come for a walk!" Ulisses was getting closer and closer to her, ready to grab her arm and do what he want to do.

'This city is getting more and more lost!' Arthur thought while he was hiding. He then moved a little and stayed in the girl's field of vision.

But before she could scream for help, even without knowing who he was, she saw that Arthur had his index finger in his mouth, indicating for her to remain silent on him. She immediately understood and stood without speaking.
