The noise of the fireworks could be heard throughout the city, however under the shelter of that happy moment things in one of the alleys were not so calm.
With a blow to the face, a man fell to the ground while looking in fear at the two men in suits in front of him.
"John, you knew that today was the payment date for the loan that we very kindly gave you a month ago so that you could pay for your daughter's surgery."
John who was on the floor said trembling with fear, "I'll pay you the money and interest, but how do you know the surgery went completely wrong.
My daughter simply did not survive and the expenses I had to incur used up the money she had prepared to pay you. I just ask for some time.
Please show some mercy as my daughter died and I don't have any kind of family anymore..."
John's words were interrupted when applause could be heard, at which point the three men looked down the alley and could see a young black-haired man in a smart black suit.
"John, I never imagined that you would turn out to be such a professional actor. Your display really showed what a quite exceptional person you are.
But unfortunately for you, our family always investigates in detail all the information of those people to whom we lend money.
Unlike banks, we personally review the history of our clients, since we definitely do not do charity and every dollar we lend is an investment.
We clearly know that your daughter's surgery was due to an injury you caused her when you were drunk. Without a doubt, alcohol makes you quite violent.
It was night, and you just came home completely drunk, opened the door and saw your daughter preparing food.
At that moment you felt a great amount of hatred because in the end your wife died giving birth to your daughter. Without thinking twice, you ran towards her like a violent beast.
Due to her weight difference, it was quite easy for you to push her towards the wall where she hit her head. At that moment her blood started to come out, and you realized what a stupid thing you had done.
Feeling the drunkenness wear off, you called 911 and reported that your daughter was in an accident in which she tripped.
With your experience as a forensic worker, it was quite easy for you to fix everything necessary so that everything could be classified as a tragic accident.
In the end, the death of your daughter has depended exclusively on you, since the supposed payments for your daughter's funeral were simply not made by you.
Well, curiously, a few months ago you took out life insurance for your daughter from which you received a large amount of money when she died.
Curiously, we found out that you had bought a flight so you could get out of the city."
The young man took out a plane ticket from his suit and looked at it with a smile. "A first class flight to Hawaii. I must admit you have an excellent taste for a haggard person who is saddened by the death of his daughter.
You know, despite the things you did, we don't mind judging you or giving you any judgment about the actions you committed. We are not the authority and much less interested in becoming vigilantes.
But what I can't allow is trash, like you having the gall to try to escape without first paying off the debt you owed my family.
I cannot allow that because each debt must be paid and if I don't know how to do it that way, someone will have to pay for that mistake.
Now you have two options. The first is to pay your debt with double interest because you had the bad idea to try to escape.
The second option is that we take care of taking everything you have, even the money you have hidden in different accounts abroad.
Later we will take you on what I like to call the express of happiness. First, we will take you to the industrial park that is outside the city.
Once we arrive, you will receive a first class treatment with Gabriel, a young Mexican with a lot of experience in torturing his clients.
Later, we will take you inside the dog food factory where you will become food for small street dogs.
You may not believe it, but you should know that street dogs seem to really like human meat, since our happy dog food line has a very good performance with these little animals.
So John what is your decision?"
John who we're feeling a lot of fear couldn't control his bladder so he urinated on himself.
"I'll pay double my debt right now. Just please let me out of this place.
You'll never hear from me again. I can promise you."
The young man laughed and signaled the two men to pick up John from the ground. The two men obeyed and lifted him off the ground.
"Once you pay the money, I will return your plane ticket, so it can be completely free for you to get out of this place.
We, the Flanagan family always keep our words because words must be respected."
At that moment, John swallowed hard and without wasting time took out his cell phone to make a few transactions from his bank application.
After a few minutes, the young man's cell phone made a sound, so when he checked it, he realized that the debt was paid.
So the young man walked over to John and dusted off his shoulders before handing him the plane ticket.
"This plane ticket belongs to you. Now, you should go to the airport and enjoy your vacation.
Remember that if you need another loan, the Flanagan family is always willing to make investments in people who can pay it."
John who was breathing with some difficulty turned around and started running because he was afraid of dying.
The young man, seeing this could only laugh as he showed an evil smile, so he took his phone and made a call.
"Commissioner Henry, the rat is on his way to the airport and he's armed. I think he's a danger to society."
"Haha, Killian, you are certainly a genius. Don't worry law enforcement is on their way to eliminate the threat.
I just hope you have the data to be able to make some transfers."
"Commissioner Henry, my boys are the best at their jobs, so it will all be up to you once the dangerous rat is eliminated."
At that moment, the two began to laugh as the celebration of the new year in the city continued.
