After he walked in, he found that the bar was very lively, just as he expected. The livelier a place was, the less likely anyone would notice him if he kept a low profile.
Julian went to the bar to ask for a beer. He sat in the corner quietly as he drank, at the same time, he was keeping an eye on the situation around him.
The atmosphere inside the bar seemed normal. However, a few muscular men in army t-shirts barged in all of a sudden. Those guys were evidently drunk, but this did not stop them from drinking some more.
They acted very arrogantly after they came in. They would approach any women they laid eyes on and the men would not dare to fight them.
Julian was curious. After all, it was normal for men to get jealous and fight over women in a bar.
“Hey, what’s your name? I like your beard!”
Even though Julian was sitting in the corner, one of the muscular men approached him.
Julian thought his cover was blown since the muscular man approached him voluntarily. Julian lifted his head slightly and noticed the man had a beard too. Then, he understood why the man approached him.
“My name is Rocky.”
Julian came up with a fake name to muddle through this, but the other party seemed excited.
“Rocky? My name is Zen! Your beard is as sexy as mine! This is for you. Have fun!”
Zen handed Julian some hard liquor and Julian took it. After that, Zen’s friend called him over and he went back to the center of the stage in the bar.
Julian was watching them this entire time until those guys started taking their clothes off after having too much to drink. When he saw the topless muscular men, he quickly noticed a clue.
‘Scorpion tattoos? Indeed…’
When he saw this, Julian knew he had completed his mission. Thus, he placed his money down silently and left.
