Charlie’s words sent shivers down the spines of the five, Will Johnson included.

Who could have fathomed enduring Charlie’s torment up until now? They’d hoped he’d release them, but instead, he’d tracked down the Chinese gang’s boss, issuing a deadly command.

Terror gripped them. Will, bloodied, managed, “Mr. Wade… we did as you asked. Spare us…”

Charlie smirked, “Begging won’t cleanse your hands of bloodshed. Did those you killed beg?”

Ignoring Will, Charlie thrust the gun into Casey’s trembling hand, coldly saying, “What are you waiting for?”

Staring at the pistol, Casey’s inner struggle was palpable.

Casey bore a profound grudge against the Burning Angels, yet the prospect of taking a life weighed heavily. He’d fought many times, but never killed.

Charlie’s intention was crystal clear, five bullets, five enemies.

Casey fretted. Would vengeance bring a life on the run, chased by police and the Burning Angels? The Bloom Gang stood no chance, especially against the Italian power behind the Angels.

Yet, Jagoan’s words resonated deeply. Chinatown was crumbling under their leadership, devoured by the enemy. Fleeing meant annihilation for the Chinese Gang and Chinatown.

The dead, even the vendors, would bear the cost.
