As night fell, the Night Wolf Bar located in Taiping Street in the eastern district shimmered early with neon lights.
When 'Wild Wolf' Nai Ke entered the bar with a few subordinates, he was immediately hit by a mixed scent of alcohol, perfume, and drugs.
The dim, red lighting inside created a hazy atmosphere; the colorful cocktails on the bar shimmered enticingly under the lights, while the music throbbed rhythmically and deeply.
However, a quick scan revealed that there were not many guests.
The recent government crackdown against terror and gang influence had affected business up to that point, with the Night Wolf Bar having reopened just five days earlier, yet the flow of customers was less than a quarter of what it had been at its peak.
This was partly because his regulars were still nervous and cautious; second, their Blood Lizard Gang didn't have much good stuff left.
