Chapter 238 Annoying
The family discussion in the Gulen family was barely concluded for the time being.
Catherine agreed to her father's request, that is, she would not leave the local area immediately. She would first try to contact other local musical troupes. If she succeeded in getting a position, she would continue to stay here.
As for failure, the natural option is to leave and head to the capital.
mark. Although Grant was still a little dissatisfied, with his daughter's insistence, he finally compromised on this condition.
He actually knew that his daughter had grown up and had been independent for several years and no longer needed his care. The daughter had her own life. If the daughter insisted on going her own way, there was no need to notify his father.
It is precisely because this family values their family that they tell their family in advance about their future arrangements and plans.
In this family discussion, Annan was of course not just eating, he also had a few words to help his cousin.
Seeing that things ended smoothly, he was also happy.
However, not long after, Annan accidentally noticed some small problems around Uncle Mark.
Uncle Mark said that he wanted to set up a logistics and freight company with a few reliable friends. This was a good thing, and Annan would not ask too many questions or obstruct it.
However, considering the somewhat chaotic underground situation in this city, we still need to be concerned.
Annan didn't do any investigation behind the scenes. He asked his uncle very directly.
Uncle Mark didn't hide much, and told everything he knew in two or three blows.
Who knows, in the uncle's mouth, he asked something that was considered a problem.
The company that my uncle founded with his friends seems to have somehow come into contact with a gangster force.
Probably it has something to do with a friend.
"I don't want to get involved with those gangsters, but if you want to set up a company now, there must be someone behind it. But don't worry, all we have to do is pay a little protection fee every once in a while, nothing else. Don’t tell Catherine about this, she will think too much.”
In short, the conclusion is that behind this transportation company that has not yet been truly established, stands the Coulier Gang.
Hearing this, Annan didn't panic or be startled. He simply frowned slightly because of this relationship.
It sounds like a relationship that involves simply paying protection money on the gang's territory and avoiding harassment.
The faction of the Coulier Gang over there doesn't seem to be the enemy of the Eero faction.
Having said that, if Roderick's previous judgment is correct, it is estimated that Ero's faction will be able to fully integrate the entire fragmented Coulier Gang and become the new boss in a while.
No matter what happens at that time, the result will be related to the character of Eero.
Annan was not sure whether Eero knew of his existence. It was most likely that he had heard of it. Even if he had not, he could not always be too naive and always prepare for the worst.
"If people over there know about my uncle's existence and my relationship, they might be in trouble. Although I still can't say for sure, what should I do?"
In fact, it is not difficult to solve this matter. As long as Annan can persuade his uncle and his friends to build the company in other areas, away from the territory of the Coulier Gang, then it should be okay.
But if the uncle's friend is in contact with the gang, then it doesn't matter where the company is established, it actually doesn't make any difference.
"Well, we still have to investigate secretly."
After Annan thought about it, he contacted a familiar detective and told the commission.
"I understand. I'll start investigating soon. You're lucky. I haven't had any important commissions recently. I should be able to find out the backgrounds of your uncle's friends soon."
Detective Antonio's ability is obvious to all, and Annan is naturally very relieved.
The investigation report did come out very quickly. Within three days, Annan received the background information of several of his uncle's friends.
"There seems to be no problem?"
Annan read all the investigation reports and found nothing wrong.
One of my uncle's friends is indeed involved in the gang, but he cannot be considered a member of the gang, not even a peripheral member, it is just a purely interest relationship.
It was also because of this relationship that the uncle's friend wanted to open a company under the umbrella of a familiar gangster, because it was more convenient, and since they had known each other for a while, they would not be tricked.
"This way, it will be easier."
Annan had no detailed plan, nor did he want to show up in person. It was too unnatural for someone with no big connections to suddenly jump out.
His idea was very simple, which was to unilaterally try to influence his uncle's thoughts, and then let his uncle change his friend's decision.
As long as the company is not set up on the territory of a gang, then anything is fine.
"It's best to open a company in the city center. The gangsters can't reach there, and at least they won't be blatant. However, the rent there is a bit expensive, and I don't know if my uncle is willing to do that."
If Annan's memory is correct, his uncle hated gangsters very much.
After all, Annan's parents were involved in a gang conflict in the past and died on the spot.
Mark may compromise temporarily, and may not break out under the persuasion of friends, but as long as he gives a little hint, it can have a good effect.
Although this may affect the cooperation between the uncle and his friends, it is better than causing greater trouble later.
"That's it for now. We'll make adjustments later if there are any changes."
In the next few days, Annan didn't sleep well.
It wasn't because he was worried about his uncle's problems, he didn't worry too much at all.
Simply because he would be woken up in the early hours of the morning these days when he was half asleep and half awake.
The voice from the other world appeared for several days in a row for some unknown reason.
Annan, who was already asleep, helplessly half-opened his sleepy eyes.
"Oh my god... I really don't want people to sleep..."
After Annan moved, he already knew clearly that the old apartment he lived in before was not a tourist attraction that he often came into contact with in the other world.
The problem wasn't the location, it was him.
With the whisperer ability he possesses, I don’t know whether he will occasionally come into contact with the other world and become involved, or whether he will inevitably and passively listen to the sounds of the other world.
All in all, every once in a while, late at night, he would hear the sounds of the other world coming from behind the door of his home.
However, the noise in the past was not as frequent as it was recently, and he was kept awake for several days by the noise.
"Oh...it's really annoying..."
