Hell's Kitchen,
Today was the day Chen Ye was holding a meeting. Outside Fisk Tower, various luxury cars were gathered. Rolls-Royces, Bentleys, and Maybachs were all parked at the entrance.
Each gang leader was surrounded by a group of underlings, but Chen Ye had stipulated that each gang leader could only bring one person inside.
Otherwise, no matter how large the conference room was, it wouldn't be able to accommodate this crowd. Of course, this was also to prevent infighting within the building.
Everyone was afraid that their boss would get into trouble, and a group of gang underlings were waiting across the street with guns.
"What day is it today, why is it so lively? So many gang leaders have come to Fisk Tower."
An elderly black woman beside them saw the spectacular scene before her.
After all, in a place like this, only big shots drive luxury cars. If an ordinary person drove one, it wouldn't belong to them the next day.
"That's right. I heard all the gangs were summoned by Chen Ye, the owner of Good Fortune Restaurant, to a meeting today."
"It seems they're discussing the matter of establishing a community school in Hell's Kitchen," another Asian aunt, who was better informed, explained.
"That's a good thing. I think I saw that kid Chen Ye when he was very young. He was one of the few college students from our Hell's Kitchen."
"I didn't expect that after becoming successful, he would still think about the people of Hell's Kitchen."
"I heard that the several streets around Good Fortune Restaurant are now managed very safely by young Chen Ye. If I had money, I'd really want to move over there," the black aunt immediately praised upon hearing Chen Ye's name.
"Who would stay in Hell's Kitchen if they had money? They'd definitely move out and live elsewhere, what are you thinking!"
"But I estimate that things will be difficult to accomplish. Look at the group of gang leaders outside, they're all here to oppose Chen Ye's plans. It's a pity that we old folks are useless, it's no use even if we want to support young Chen Ye," the Asian aunt said worriedly.
After listening to the Asian-American woman, the Black woman said indignantly.
"Those damn gang scum should go to hell! My poor grandson, not even 15, lost his miserable life in a gang shootout! They should all be blown up with a bomb!"
The Asian-American woman, hearing the Black woman's dangerous words, quickly covered her mouth and looked around, fearing the gang might hear and silence her. She quickly pulled the Black woman away.

Not only that, but because they were afraid of harming the innocent, even the two roads in front of Fisk Tower were directly sealed off. Only the gangs invited by Chen Ye could enter today, holding invitations.
And there were also five security guards and security inspection equipment at the entrance of the building to ensure that everyone entering could not carry weapons.
"What do you mean by this? You won't let us carry guns in? I'm already giving face by coming. How can a gang leader not have a gun for self-defense?" One of the gang leaders, who was being inspected, rebuked.
"That's right, what do you mean? If we can't carry guns, we won't go in."
"How do we protect our own safety without guns!"
Many gangsters immediately echoed the sentiment. They all demanded that the security check be cancelled, allowing them to bring their weapons inside.
"Everyone, we are also considering your safety. If someone brings a gun, and others don't, that's very unfair."
"I swear in the name of Kingpin, everyone present today will be able to walk out of this tower safely."
Bullseye, the person in charge of security this time, comforted the gang leaders.
After listening, the gang leaders, deterred by Kingpin's intimidation, obediently cooperated with the security check.
But there would always be hotheads who wouldn't comply. One of the gang leaders directly ignored the security personnel: "I won't be checked, what can you do to me?"
Bullseye was seen pulling out a pen from nowhere and tossing it casually.
Whoosh!
That pen seemed to have a mind of its own, directly piercing the hand of the greenhorn gang leader.
"Aaaah!!" The gang leader wailed in pain, clutching his pierced hand.
"I could kill you, but I'm giving Chen Ye face for now. If there's a next time, it won't be your hand that gets pierced, but your head."
Bullseye said it casually, as if killing someone was as simple as killing a chicken. The greenhorn gang leader didn't dare to speak, fearing that he would die on the spot the next second, and quickly fled to have his subordinates bandage his wound.
The other gang leaders saw this scene and obediently cooperated.
Bullseye looked at the scene in front of him with satisfaction and said loudly.
"Our group dislikes fighting and killing the most. As long as everyone cooperates, I guarantee that nothing will happen. Everyone can leave the tower safely after the meeting. Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth."
After hearing this, the gang members' expressions varied, some sneering, some fearful, and some calm. But they all cooperated by handing over their weapons.
Bullseye had a natural talent for throwing things; he could hurl any object in his hands at a target with incredible accuracy.
Some of his feats included using playing cards to slit throats, spitting out his teeth to pierce enemies' skulls, throwing paper airplanes onto distant rooftops, and killing a man by throwing a toothpick at a window a hundred yards away.
Just as the methodical inspection was underway, five ragged-looking vagrants stumbled towards the entrance of Fisk Tower.
The security guards at the entrance immediately noticed the unusual behavior of the five vagrants and became alert, pulling out their guns and aiming them at the five.
One of the guards shouted, "Stop! You shouldn't be here."
The five vagrants seemed not to hear and continued to rush towards the building's entrance.
As they got closer, the building's security guards clearly saw fear on the faces of the five vagrants, along with an expression of suicidal determination, and then they saw the exposed bomb fuses.
"Bombs! Alert! Protect the guests!"
Then, he began to shoot at the legs of the five homeless men.
Inside, Bullseye, hearing the commotion, led the gang leader in an orderly fashion towards the interior.
After the building's security guards shot at them, the five homeless men had clearly lost their ability to move, but the timer on the bombs didn't stop counting down.
Subsequently, the building's security guards quickly started moving sandbags to surround the homeless men, attempting to reduce the impact of the explosion.
However, because the five homeless men were too scattered, too many sandbags were needed, so the building's security guards also began to evacuate.
"Damn it, is this your guarantee?"
"Run quickly!"
"We knew all along that Chen Ye and the rest of you had bad intentions, just wanting to wipe us all out!"
The gang leaders inside the building immediately began cursing Chen Ye and his group.
Boom!
The sound of a timed bomb exploding rang out, but what the gang leaders didn't expect was that the building was completely undamaged, and they hadn't been affected by the explosion at all.
If they hadn't heard the explosion, they would have suspected that the security guards were just joking with them.
The gang leaders looked around, puzzled.
"Everyone, please calm down. It's Chen Ye's fault for not being a good host, causing you to be startled. The bomb has already been defused."
Chen Ye slowly walked in from the hall, accompanied by Vongola Primo and Master Ye.
The gang leaders looked at each other, and they could see a huge question mark in each other's eyes.
I don't know if the previous bomb was Chen Ye's joke or a real bomb. If it was a real bomb, why didn't it explode?
Could Chen Ye have used some superpower? If so, ordinary weapons wouldn't be of much use against him.
Some of the gang leaders began to eye Chen Ye with apprehension.
"Everyone, please move to the conference room. The meeting will start soon."
After Chen Ye said that, he walked toward the elevator.
He left behind the gang leaders, some looking fearful, some apprehensive, and some filled with anger, all watching his back.
