That evening, in a small but cozy and quiet restaurant on the outskirts of the city, people gathered who could rightfully be classified as the powerful of this world. These people had huge amounts of money at their disposal, and many political figures were under their secret control and business. Numerous armed fighters were ready to carry out any of their orders and send people disliked by their bosses to the next world. Or force them to carry out the orders of their patrons. Despite all this, ordinary people knew little about them. Only from time to time certain names and nicknames appeared in the press in connection with scandalous cases. Those who gathered in the restaurant that evening avoided any advertising, they did not meddle openly in official life, they exercised their power in the shadows. These were the kings of the underworld, “thieves in law.”
