These people could become a legend with their miserable life too.
Old Godfather Ryan was the latter. Ryan had five sons and was very proud of them.
In the traditional Italian mafia belief, a son was the only one who could carry on the mantle and inherit their Sicily fighting spirit.
Therefore, a patriarchal ideology remained the eternal guiding ideology for this group o f people. Those without a son would be too embarrassed to greet people when they went out.
Those without sons were envious of seeing those bringing their sons around to kill people, sell drugs, and collect protection fees.
That was always why mafia members were very proud of their sons. They could become prouder with more sons.
Old Godfather Ryan was blessed with five sons who had been born in a row, and many envied him.
Four of his five sons had carried on his mantle and joined the gang except for his youngest son who was too young.
His life was originally very hopeful. With his four sons banded in the mafia gang, they could become braver and stronger and easily climb up the ladder. Maybe one would even become a small leader soon.
Unfortunately, his four sons were too unlucky. During a gang fight before, his four sons and their accomplices had driven seven or eight cars to the Russian mafia's territory and caught the Russians by surprise.
However, just as they were on their way home after a victorious fight, the Russians had taken a shortcut to stop their car, catching them off guard. As a result, only his sons' car could not escape, and in the end, his four sons had been killed by the Russian mafia.
Old Godfather Ryan had had an emotional breakdown after the tragedy. Not long after his collapse, the Russian mafia had come t o their community and had their revenge. During the fight, his wife and youngest son had also been killed in the conflict.
Since then, he became the most miserable man in the gang and was given high respect.
Old Godfather Ryan spoke tremblingly, "I've served the syndicate for years, but I've never come across anything this weird... Is it true that everyone is missing?"
"That’s right!" Someone cried and said," We've checked! All the members in Vancouver have disappeared."
Oh, Saint Maria...” Old Godfather Ryan said as he shivered, "I-I really can’t think of any gang in Vancouver that could be so strong..."
Someone could not help but say, “Old Godfather Ryan, I’m afraid that my son is i n danger. Should we make a police report? I think only the police can investigate the matter and give us an answer!"
"Nonsense!" Old Godfather Ryan was so angry that he almost stood up.
He shouted in indignation, "When my five sons were dead, I didn’t even call the police! Your son has only disappeared for a night and you can't wait to make a police report immediately. Don't you know the taboo of all mafias in the world? Calling the police is a taboo!"
