Shin squeezed through the crowded space and finally entered the Black Iron Bar. The bar is about the size of a tennis court, but it is divided into several areas, each with a unique atmosphere and features.
The long bar at the entrance is the focal point of the entire bar. It occupies an entire wall, long and narrow, with various bottles and glasses displayed on top. A row of bartenders stands behind the bar, skillfully mixing a variety of alcoholic drinks. They exchange experiences and occasionally let out sighs or laughter, as if they are the knowledge base and entertainment center of this place. The guests in front of the bar also engage in their own conversations, some sitting alone, lost in their thoughts, while others form small groups, discussing various topics.
On the right side of the bar is a relatively quiet resting area, with several small tables and chairs for people to use. The guests in this area are mostly discussing business, negotiating privately, or simply resting. They speak in low voices, occasionally toasting, seemingly discussing sensitive or confidential matters. The lighting in this area is relatively soft, creating a relatively peaceful atmosphere, but still filled with tension.
On the other side of the bar is a small dance floor, where the music's beat is irresistible, causing people to sway along. Low-hanging red lanterns above the dance floor cast warm light and shadow. Young people and nightclub enthusiasts dance here, immersed in the atmosphere of music and lights. Their dance moves are diverse, ranging from passionate swing dances to wild electronic dances, with everyone pursuing their own rhythm.
The whole bar is filled with people with various tattoos and body art, dressed in all sorts of strange outfits, from leather jackets to psychedelic rainbow attire. Some people look quite fierce, with rebellious and threatening tattoos covering their bodies, while others appear relatively low-key, with tattoos that may be more artistic and discreet. The atmosphere of this place is filled with negative energy, making people feel a mix of unease and excitement, as if they are in a parallel universe, far away from the constraints of everyday life.
This is a gathering place for many criminals. Shin immediately felt the oppression upon entering the bar, as the atmosphere here is filled with a sense of delinquency. The dim lighting, the crowded people drinking and interacting amidst the noise. Some people speak in hushed tones, while others laugh loudly. The whole bar seems to be filled with energy, but this energy is not friendly.
Huang Renjie's voice came through the earphones hidden in Shin's ears: "Remember, Shin, members of the 'Racing gang' will have a spiky wheel tattooed on their bodies. If you encounter them, be sure to observe closely. This could be our chance to find a clue."
Shin nodded, trying hard to conceal his nervousness. This place made him feel very uneasy. The dim lighting, various noisy sounds blending together, and the strange tattoos and body art in the crowd made him feel like he was in a strange and dangerous environment. He carefully observed each person, searching for potential clues.
In a corner of the bar, a group of people were making a lot of noise. They all had various tattoos on their clothes and skin, but Shin realized that none of them had the wheel tattoo he was looking for. He shifted his gaze and carefully observed the other people, but none of them seemed to meet his expectations.
Feeling the pressure increasing, Shin knew that time was of the essence. Just then, he noticed a man sitting next to the bar, with a bright red wheel tattoo on his arm, covered in spikes, just as described by Huang Renjie.
Shin's heartbeat accelerated as he noticed a man sitting in the corner of the bar. The man leaned against the bar, holding a deep red wine glass, and his gaze occasionally swept over the crowd. Shin could sense a kind of confidence and wildness emanating from the man, which was exactly the clue he was looking for from the Racing gang.
However, Shin also understood that this place was full of danger, and he needed to be cautious. He decided to take the opportunity to order a drink at the bar, attempting to get closer to the suspect. He walked to the bar, sat next to the man, and then signaled the bartender with a fluent gesture.
The man turned around and smiled at Shin, seemingly indicating his arrival. Shin also smiled back and then ordered a whiskey. When the bartender pushed the glass in front of him, he felt a wave of nervousness because he knew it was time to start a conversation.
The man smiled at Shin and seemed somewhat excited. He said, "Hey, stranger, are you new here?"
Shin pretended to be calm and nodded in response, "Yes, I am new here. I heard there are some interesting things here."
The man smiled, raised his glass, and said, "There are always interesting things here, my friend. I am Kevin, everyone calls me Kevin Brother."
Shin introduced himself, saying, "I am Shin, nice to meet you, Kevin Brother."
They exchanged some simple pleasantries, and then Kevin Brother asked, "So, Shin, what brings you here?"
Shin pondered for a moment, then said softly, "I heard there might be some interesting people here. I'd like to meet some new friends and maybe find some interesting opportunities."
Kevin Brother smiled and seemed satisfied with Shin's response. He said, "You've come to the right place, Shin. There are always opportunities here, as long as you're willing to try."
Their conversation continued, with Kevin Brother beginning to share some of his experiences at this bar while also inquiring about Shin's background and interests. Shin carefully maintained the conversation while attempting to mention the Racing gang at the right time, to see if Kevin Brother would have any valuable information.
Kevin Brother handed a small bag of powder to Shin and said with a smile, "Here, Shin, this is our specialty here, guaranteed to give you a crazy night."
Shin looked at the bag of powder and immediately shook his head, rejecting Kevin Brother's suggestion. He knew he absolutely couldn't let himself fall into mental confusion right now.
Kevin Brother's expression turned slightly unhappy, but then he snorted the powder himself, and his face instantly became extremely excited. He started talking a lot, his gaze became unfocused, and the content of his speech became increasingly difficult to understand. Shin felt somewhat uneasy, but thinking about his own mental state at the moment, he decided to try to continue the conversation with Kevin Brother, hoping to obtain useful information from it.
Shin decided to ask more in-depth questions: "Hey, Kevin Brother! You know this place so well, you must know about King Cobra, right? That super skilled hacker. I heard he's up to something big again recently." Shin finished with a calm smile, but Kevin Brother suddenly stopped and stared sharply at Shin, saying, "Who are you? What are you really? Why are you asking me so many questions? How do you know about King Cobra?"
