Chapter 55 Spooky Golden Years

 

After listening to Grayden, Jonathan immediately fell into deep thoughts. Golden Years is at such a strategic location, and it’s quite spacious too. Besides, the owner is having a hard time selling it off. In that case, I guess I can buy it at a much lower price.

 

Of course, Jonathan knew there must be something unusual hidden inside a forsaken place like Golden Years. He was also aware that it was unlikely for him to get his plan of opening a bar successfully executed if he did not do something to it.

As Grayden drove, he persuaded earnestly, “Mr. Lawson, there are plenty of choices if you want to open a bar. A place like Golden Years is shrouded in unpredictable danger and mysteries. You don’t have to take the risk.”

Wearing a faint smile, Jonathan replied, “Mr. Lewis, can we take a look at Golden Years first?”

 

Grayden stopped persuading further after Jonathan insisted. After a moment’s pause, Grayden added, “You can take a look from the outside but never go in, Mr. Lawson. I’m saying this because you’re my friend, and I don’t want you to get hurt.”

 

“Okay!” Jonathan agreed.

Soon, they arrived in front of Golden Years again.

 

The car stopped. Jonathan and Grayden got off from the vehicle.

In contrast to Golden Years, which was shrouded in darkness, the bar next to it was lively and bustled with people.

Although the weather was hot, they could feel a piercing chill when they stood in front of Golden Years.

 

Golden Years looked shabby and damaged. The main entrance had been shut down by a roller shutter covered with a thick, reddish-brown rust layer.

Even the fonts on the signboard had faded, and only a few alphabets were still visible. The wiring of the neon lights was exposed too.

No one knew the actual condition inside of Golden Years.

Jonathan stood in front of the grim-looking building. He could feel an indescribable sense of biting cold. In fact, he felt a strong, ominous aura surrounding him.

At that point, Jonathan could almost imagine how intense and menacing the aura could be behind the roller shutter.

Faced with such a situation, Jonathan was slightly startled, too. He had taken countless lives in the past, and he had also been to the cemetery and other places that gave off a gloomy vibe, yet it was his first time to come across a place like Golden Years. The oppressive feelings it exuded were almost unbearable.

Even an expert like him could not help keeping his guard up out of fear, let alone the ordinary men.

Once again, Jonathan fell into deep thought. He did not break open the door and dart in recklessly.

Golden Years was located along Bar Street, which was also the busiest street in the city. Hence, the place was always crowded with people and filled with a sense of liveliness. It was nearly impossible for Golden Years to exude such an intense, gloomy aura.

 

A place like the cemetery exuded some sort of aura, too.
