"We're with the police investigators! Everyone on the ground right now!" the men hollered.
However, the men had pudgy faces and were not dressed in uniform. They even had tattoos covering their bodies. Instead of investigators, they looked more like vicious thugs.
Seeing that things were spiraling out of control, the security guards of the club rushed onto the scene. A bespectacled guard, who was named Paulo Jefferson, stepped forward and said, "Sir, we're open to discuss the situation at hand in a civil manner."
"Fuck! We're carrying out our duties as investigators so you can fuck right off!" a blond man, who went by the name, Barry Blunt, responded before aiming a powerful kick at Paulo.
Paulo was knocked off his feet by the kick. The other guards roared with indignation and wanted to rush forward to defend him, but Paulo quickly stopped them. He ignored the immense pain and forced a smile onto his face.
"Sirs, we've always been a legal business and have never violated the law. If there's anything about Megastar that you're dissatisfied with, we hope that you can find it in yourselves to forgive us. There's no need to get violent, right? Since everyone's already here, the bill is on us for tonight!"
Paulo knew that if he stayed patient, the issue might still be able to be resolved peacefully. After all, Megastar operated in a harmonious manner. He wouldn't lose his temper unless the situation backed him into a corner with no other way to retaliate.
However, Barry was not sympathetic toward his efforts. He dealt a powerful slap across Paulo's face and yelled, "Stop talking shit! We're carrying out our duty as investigators. How dare you try to bargain with us!"
"Boss, we found—No, I mean, my fellow investigator, we've captured someone who's using drugs!"
The men searched through the rooms, and it didn't take long for them to drag out five to six young men and women. Coincidentally, they were part of the group of well-dressed youngsters from before.
Barry scoffed as he grabbed one of the women who had a heavy layer of makeup on. "Were you using drugs in the room just now?"
"Yes," the woman answered without missing a beat.
"Where did you get the drugs from? Who gave them to you?" questioned Barry.
