Rudy left the water part and walked around the city to find the shops for the things he needed. But most importantly, he needed more money.
The money he had given to Rebecca and Jessica was invalid in the 1989 timeline. Even when he bought tickets at the water park, he told them that he would pay when he returned to pick up the girls.
So now he had to find a new way to get the money. Fortunately for him, he knew just a place to make money without doing anything.
“Underworld.”
After reaching there, he bypassed the security by flying over them. He had the Underworld Citizen card, but he wasn’t sure if the 2008 card would be valid in 1989.
However, the underworld was nothing like it was in 2008. There was havoc everywhere. Gangs were after each other, shooting and killing everyone like animals.
“Now, this is how I expected the underworld to be.”
Rudy casually walked on the street without caring for anything and made his way to the market.
‘Come to think of it, an Underworld war should be happening during this timeline. But… it doesn’t actually seem like a war. I expected blood and explosions, but hey, I am not complaining. I am just here to make some quick bucks and leave.

Today’s date is the 22nd of September. Rusher and his sister Ria must be overseas, and she might have also given birth to Maria already. Hmm~’ Rudy placed his hand on his chin and wondered, “Rize should be around 4 years old. Alice and Ruby haven’t been born yet. The same with Elise and Lucy. Niti and Vriti are… well, already surpassed human age.
I now feel somewhat grateful to have been born with them. I would never have met them if I had been born in a different timeline. That’s honestly a scary thought.”
Rudy was walking nonchalantly, minding his own business and muttering his thoughts to himself. There were few citizens on the streets as it was a curfew, but the gang members were running wild, killing each other.
“Where is Lu Bela? Shouldn’t she be ensuring ‘peace’ here?” Rudy sighed.
Rudy had a bad feeling about his plan, but he still made his way to the market. However, just as he had expected, it was closed.

‘So what if it’s close. I will just go to the seller’s house.’
He was about to leave but decided to scan the area with his vision abilities.
“Oh!”
The shops were indeed closed, but people were hiding in them.
‘Most likely, everything was calm a few minutes ago, and when the shooting started, they pulled down the shutters.’
Rudy walked to the seller’s shop and banged on the shutter.
“Come on, I know you are in there. Open the shutter.”
But he didn’t receive a response from inside.
“I am not an enemy. I am just here to sell some goods.”

The shop owner opened the shutter a little, and Rudy took that opportunity to open the shutter completely.
Inside, seven people were standing, aiming their guns at Rudy.
Rudy casually entered the store and sat on the chair as if he owned the palace. He crossed his legs and leaned back to make himself comfortable.
“Yes, this chair is good. It makes you want to keep sitting on it and not leave this store. Is this some sort of psychological trick?” he wondered.
The seven armed people were still pointing their guns at Rudy with their fingers ready to press the trigger.
Rudy looked at the owner who was standing on the side and said, “I am here to sell some goods. I hope you can give me a nice amount. By the way, it’s hot in here, can I have some cold drink?”
“Shut up! If you open your mouth again, we will kill you!” the guards said.
Rudy pretended to insert his hand in his pocket and took out a one-kilogram biscuit made from gold.
He placed it on the counter and asked, “How much for one biscuit?”
The owner reluctantly checked the quality under his machine and said, “$5000.”
Rudy furrowed his brows and uttered, “I know the current price goes above ten grands. And you are giving me half of that?”
“That’s the market price. You are here to sell it illegally without any proof of the source of the gold. You might have found it on the street or stolen it from somewhere. I won’t ask you for anything since that’s what the black market is for.”
“And I am also not asking for a full price.”
“Then how much do you want to sell it for?”
‘I honestly don’t care what price I set it for, but let’s have some fun bargaining,’ he smirked inwardly.
“I want to sell it for $9000.”
“That’s preposterous! You are basically asking for the market price!”
“How much are you willing to buy it for?” Rudy asked with a judging look on his face.
“I will give $6000 maximum!”
“That won’t do. Let’s keep it at $8500.”
“No, no. You are asking too much.”
“Oh well…” Rudy got up from the chair and said, “I guess I will have to go to the shop at the end of the block. That shop will surely give me $8500 for one kilogram. And If I sell a few dozen kilograms, I might also get a bonus.”
“Wait… you have more?” the owner asked. “Why didn’t you say so? There is no need to go to another shop. There is no better seller than me in the entire underworld.”
‘Got him!’
Rudy didn’t even know there was another shop on the block. But he used a classic trick, and the owner fell for it for some reason.
The owner rubbed his hands and nervously asked, “By the way, how much are we talking?”
“I have fifty kilograms of gold with me.”
“Fifty kilograms?!” the owner exclaimed. “Please, sit, dear sir. Let’s have a proper chat.”
