บท 57: Targeted

One evening, in early May, Feng Yichen left her university campus and went to Brother Bin's nightclub to look for him. She was just in time to overhear some of the gang leaders.

"…When are those Big Circle Boys [1] going to beat it? They've been hangin' around for ages. They tryin' to take over our territory or somethin'?"

"Yeah, that's what I think, too. They've been here for more than a month now. We've been payin' for their food and expenses the whole dang time. The second we say somethin' they don't like, they pull out their guns and threaten us."

"Pfft! What's so scary about guns from the black market? Let them try steppin' on my toes – I'll smoke every last one of 'em!"

"Don't! It's money the Big Circle Boys are after, they don't actually want to kill us. And there may not be a lot of them, but any one of them can take on ten of ours, easily. We better not provoke them. Besides, it's money we want, too. No point shooting it out with them."
