Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 257

Jean was bewildered, "What’s wrong with that place?"

The granny looked around and moved closer to Jean, "That place is cursed! Don’t go there!"

"What happened there? Please tell me more about it."

Both of them got closer to gossip while glancing at Building 7 while they talked.

"That building is not safe for people to live in. That’s why it looked dilapidated. Actually, people were living there ten years ago on the sixth floor."

"Is it 602?" Jean interrupted.

"Yes, that’s the one. There used to be a few foreigners living there. They speak with a foreign accent and they were here to run their business. They set up their stalls at the apartment complex. When the property owners refuse to let them do so, they beat them up."

"They’re evil!" Lilly exclaimed.

Josh tensed up. Evil? A place of great evil! There must be ghosts!

"They also beat up the people from the grocery store at Building 3 you had passed by just now. They robbed and drove the owner away and opened their own store at the same place. They threatened us if we didn't buy anything from them." There was hatred in the granny eyes as she thought of the unpleasant memories.

Jean frowned. They’re such a bully? No one’s in charge?

"They are too much. No one could control them?" Jean voiced her doubts.

"Unfortunately, no. They forced their business on us, but they were not satisfied with the little money they earned. They began to take over the open space in the complex. Our bicycles or motorbikes were usually parked downstairs in the open space. They claimed that we don’t own the open spaces and forced us to pay parking fees," the granny said solemnly.

"Then it got worse. They set up a stop at the complex’s entrance. We must prove that we live here before we can enter. Everyone had to register for a resident ID that showed their name, age, and occupation to prove that they were a good citizen," added the granny.

Jean's eyes widened in shock, "What? No one called the cops on them?"

"No one dared to control them as they were in an underworld group. They were ruthless and cunning. This was how they survived oppression. A lot of people quit their jobs to petition to bring them down. However, the men kidnaped the elderly, women, and children from their homes to let them know who’s the boss. They were all locked up in Building 7," the granny looked towards that building as she said.

"Then what?" The four kids asked anxiously.

"Then the people fought with them. In order to warn those people who dare to resist. They… killed everyone that was locked in Building 7. They didn’t even spare the children. 30 people were killed that night!"

When things went too far, the men were finally arrested and imprisoned.

It was such a tragedy. Jean murmured, "No way. This is too much. It’s hard to believe that 30 people died…"
