The Black Swan Behind (Beauty of Fire)

Chapter 28: Rules To Break

“That’s a sign that it’s not clear what group they belong to. Maybe they’re from a bigger group, or have been specially sent to arrest Calvin.” Troy replied.

“What?” Emma covered her mouth with her hand. “Then what should we do? I’m really worried about Calvin. By then, he’d been beaten so badly despite winning. If the group was as you said, then Calvin is in big danger now.” she continued.

“Then what do you want me to do?” Troy asked flatly.

Emma snorted. In fact, she was very upset inside. If only she didn’t want to get involved in gangster trouble, she would certainly have set out on her own to help Calvin. Even though Emma knew that these people were also dangerous for her to fight alone.

Troy chuckled, “I was just kidding. I’ll look for him. You don’t have to worry.”

“Ah...” Emma smiled in relief. She wasn’t wrong by running to Troy for help. But after all, in this town, the only guys Emma considered as friends were Calvin, Troy, and... Roger, maybe?

Troy got to his feet and took his cell phone from the top of the tool drawer table. Then he fiddled with his phone for a while as he returned to his chair. Emma just looked at him expectantly and worriedly.

.....

“So.. What are you planning? Should we go back to the seafood shop?” asked Emma.

“Wait ten minutes. I’ll get ready.” Troy said, rising to his feet.

The guy took a bottle of soda from the fridge and gave it to Emma. Then he excused himself into the house.

“I don’t have Calvin’s number. I should have asked for his contact earlier..” Emma muttered as she looked at her phone. She was really worried about his friend’s fate.

Not long after, Troy was back from inside the house. He was wearing a thick denim jacket and long jeans. Previously, he was only wearing a t-shirt and shabby sweatpants. Then he walked to the rolling door and opened it.

Emma stood up, watching Troy, who seemed to be preparing his motorcycle which was next to Calvin’s which was still unfinished repair.

“You want to go now?” Emma asked, stepping closer to him.

Troy nodded, “Soon my friends will arrive. Do you want to go home or wait here? Incidentally, there is no one in my house. You just have to hold the key until we are back.”

Emma shook her head, “Neither. I’ll come with you.” her answer was fast.

Troy’s brows furrowed in disbelief, “Are you serious? I suggest you do not come along. Because maybe this is.. a bit dangerous ..” he mused.

But Emma ignored it. She walked over to a shelf that held several helmets and took one of them, “Can I borrow this?”

Troy just nodded. Then he took out his big blue and white motorcycle from the garage.

As soon as he got out, a group of motorized guys had just arrived in front of his workshop. There were five motorcycles with a total of seven people. Each of them immediately took off their helmet.

“Hey!” Troy greeted them.

But his friends looked at each other when they saw the figure of a very beautiful girl beside their friend. They didn’t expect a Troy to have such a beautiful friend. And the girl was also at his house at night. Maybe it was his girlfriend?

“She’s not my girlfriend. She’s a friend of Calvin Lee’s.” Troy could immediately guess what was inside his friends’ heads.

“Oh.. Hahaha..” They laughed.

“These are my friends from the Judo club. They’ll help us find Calvin.” Troy introduced his friends to Emma.

“I’m Ian. They are Martin, Nicko, Steven, Jeremy, Lucas, and this is Frank.” Said one of the guys with sad eyes, pointing to his friends one by one.

“I’m Emma Hillland. Thanks for coming to help me.” She Nodded.

“We’d better get going now before things get any worse. First, we have to go to where you guys met them.” Troy said.

Emma nodded, “XX Seafood shop in the middle of the city. Let’s go there now.” she about to get on Troy’s motorcycle.

“W.. wait.. Emma. Sorry, but can you just ride with Ian? I happen to be a bit reckless while riding a bike.” Troy stopped her. He grinned uncomfortably with a slightly sad face.

Emma blinked in confusion, then turned to Ian.

“I will take you carefully. He never rides a girl on a motorcycle. And no girl wanted to either. Haha..” Ian laughed. The guy sounded friendly even though he had a sad face like a sleepy person.

“Okay. Thanks.” Emma said before getting on Ian’s motorcycle.

Then the group of motorcycles moved quickly. Less than ten minutes, they had arrived at the location near the shop where the incident began. Unfortunately, it was very deserted there. Even the shop owner was seen closing his shop.

“They’re gone. Do you have Calvin’s number?” Emma asked Troy.

The guy shook his head, “I’m not that close to him.”

“We have to find the information ourselves. Now it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack.” Ian said. Then he and his friends fiddled with their cell phones.

“One of the guys had shoulder-length hair. His eyebrows were thin and firm. He had a small nose.” Emma tried to remember.

Ian frowned, thinking for a moment, “Does he have a wound on the side of his forehead?”

“I didn’t really see it. But his voice was deep and a little hoarse like a TB person.” Emma answered.

“He’s TJ,” Ian exclaimed to his friends.

“TJ?!” Troy was surprised.

“We’re going to the North Viking base,” Troy said.

Everyone immediately closed their helmets and rode their motorcycles.

“Please hold on tight. We’re going fast.” Ian said to Emma, ??before the group of motorcycles speeded through the dark city of Handway.

Along the way, Emma’s heart kept beating fast. Looks like the problem is getting more serious now.

Their motorcycles arrived at a used boat storage location in the ship harbour area. They parked the motorcycles because there was a large chained gate that could not be passed. From there, they had to walk.

“Who exactly is TJ? Is their group that dangerous?” Emma asked as she took off her helmet.

“He’s the leader of The North Vikings. They are not bully or run an illegal businesses like the other groups. But it’s the mystery that makes them so dangerous. Because they do whatever makes the most profit. You could say they’re like assassins. Someone must have paid them a very high price to catch Calvin.” Ian said.

“Wait..” Troy stopped them. “We have to cover up Emma’s identity.” He opened his small bag and took out a buff with a skull and gave it to Emma.

“You’re right. They shouldn’t know Emma’s identity.” Nicko took off the black-framed glasses he was wearing, “You can wear this. Have they seen your face before?” he asked.

Emma shook her head as she thanked him, “I don’t think so. Calvin just hid me behind his back. But.. Aren’t they going to attack women? Troy said women wouldn’t be involved in gangster troubles.” She wore the glasses over her buff. Now the girl’s beautiful face is tightly closed.

“The rules are like that. But bad guys always break the rules, right?” Said Frank, a guy with grazed eyebrows and medium bald fade hair.
