Kingpin (Chapter 10)[18+]

On a rattling bus far from Lagos, Kene finally realises the insane scale of his mistake: trying to outsmart brutal crime lords and politicians over twenty‑three billion naira with no real escape plan. Instead of backing out, he cooks up a new, “smarter” sin—take only a slice of the fortune, vanish with his sister, and sell her a heartbreaking lie about their late father’s secret investment to get her to run. In a dusty old cybercafé that feels forgotten by time, he turns into a ghost in the machine, masking his tracks, creating fake balances, and quietly funnelling three billion into hidden accounts only he can reach.

With cash now in his pockets and a digital target on his back, he wanders into a small town where a charming POS lady offers him food, shelter, and a place to lay low. But every smile might hide a price, every room might be a trap, and every choice drags him deeper into a game where one wrong move could cost him the money, his freedom, and the only family he has left.
