Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings.

Chapter 927 Chapter 0195 [Kill two birds with one stone]

Kowloon Police Station, Hong Kong
In the detention room, Lian Haolong sat down at the long guest table under the guard of the police officers. He said to his younger brother Lian Haodong, who was sitting on the chair opposite him and looking at him, "Adong, how is the situation outside? How is our Zhongxinyi doing? Are those police officers giving you any trouble?"

Lian Haodong stared straight at Lian Haolong opposite him, his hands on his knees, looking a little agitated.

Lian Haolong laughed and said, "Why don't you speak? You are like a mute. What are you doing?"

"Brother, you've lost weight!" Lian Haodong suddenly asked, "Are you being abused here? Do they physically punish you and not give you food?" Lian Haodong asked.

Lian Haolong was stunned for a moment, paused for a few seconds, and then laughed: "How could it be? Life here is very good. We run on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and we can play football on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The most important thing is that we can have chicken legs and oranges every weekend! Life is better than outside! You see I have lost weight, but actually I have been exercising recently, and all that is left on my body is muscle."

As Lian Haolong spoke, he demonstrated a fitness pose to Lian Haodong.

"Mr. Li promised me that he would take good care of you and let you eat and drink well in prison. Could it be that he..."

"Mr. Li is right," Lian Haolong said, "I refused his help. He paid the prison guards to give me special treatment, but I refused."

"why?"

"Because I don't want to owe him a favor." Lian Haolong looked at his younger brother and said, "I can't leave here. The more favors I owe him, the more you will have to bear outside! I am your eldest brother, and logically I should take care of you. I don't want to make things difficult for you!"

"No, big brother, you're in jail because of me..." Lian Haodong became emotional again, "If you hadn't taken care of everything, I wouldn't be able to live happily outside."

"Stop saying those discouraging words. You and I are brothers, no matter who helps whom! Also, what happened to the gang brothers?" Lian Haolong changed the subject, not wanting Lian Haodong to continue blaming himself.

"Everyone is doing well for now. Mr. Youli helped us and gave us a lot of resettlement money. Those who committed crimes have also smuggled abroad. Although everyone is still in chaos now, no one has been arrested. But those police still refuse to let us go. They come to inspect every few days. The places we are in charge of, such as nightclubs, dance halls, underground casinos and karaoke bars, are now in a semi-closed stage. Those big guys said that if the situation continues like this, they will take back the places and stop us from doing business!"

Lian Haolong was stunned for a moment. People like them who make money through illegal means rely on watching over other people's businesses and lending money in casinos for a living. If they have no chance to make a living in these places, they will be forced into a dead end. When the time comes, everyone will not be able to survive and will either leave Zhong Xin Yi and join other societies, or take risks and engage in robbery.

"But big brother, these are all small matters. At least everyone is still motivated and waiting for you to come back." Lian Haodong said, "You are the spiritual pillar of our Zhongxinyi, and you are also our leader. As long as you come out, I guarantee that everyone will respond to your call, and then our Zhongxinyi will be able to rise again."

"Re-emergence?" Lian Haolong looked at his younger brother and felt that he was a little too naive. He sighed and said, "I hope what you said is true. However, the person we are accusing this time is Du Yongxiao, and he is the Commissioner of Police. The reason why those cops are staring at us like flies is because of his existence."

"To put it another way, even if I really get out, whether Mr. Du will let me go is another matter. You know, the officials have two mouths. As long as Mr. Du says to close down our Zhongxinyi, he will close down our Zhongxinyi. There are probably two reasons why he doesn't dare to kill our Zhongxinyi. First, he is afraid that we will go crazy and rob banks and jewelry stores, or fight with other gangs, which will have a bad impact on Hong Kong's law and order, and indirectly affect his reputation."

"Secondly, in his opinion, now that Lian Haolong has been arrested, Zhongxinyi has no leader, like a headless fly, unable to stir up any big waves. He has somewhat ignored us, so he only conducted some spot checks on us instead of killing us all. In a word, everything is under his control."

"Du Yongxiao is a tyrant and a man of deep scheming. He will never ignore the overall situation for personal grudges. This is his strength, but also his fear. Ah Dong, don't mess with this big devil in the future. You and I are no match for him, and even Mr. Li may not be one of them!"

"No way, can't Mr. Li deal with him?" Lian Haodong said in amazement, "The Li family is one of the four major families in Hong Kong, more powerful than the Fu Laorong family. Mr. Li Zhaoheng is even more outstanding. I think the Du family is no better than him."

Lian Haolong raised his head and smiled at Lian Haodong: "It's up to you to think what you want. I can't see the outside world from inside the prison, and you have more contact with Mr. Li outside. Maybe in your opinion, Mr. Li is really better than the Du guy, but I still want to remind you that no matter how good Mr. Li is, he only treats you and me as dogs. Since you are someone else's dog, you must have the awareness of a dog. You must be ruthless when biting people, and be accurate when asking for bones!"

Lian Haodong was shocked at first, but then he gradually calmed down under Lian Haolong's gaze: "I remember, boss."

"That's good. I hope you really remember it. Well, the visiting time is up and I have to leave. If you have time in the future, you can take care of the gang and don't come to see me so often. I'm living well here, don't worry." Lian Haolong knew that his brother might not have listened to what he said. It seemed that Mr. Wei Li was really powerful and had brainwashed him somehow.

"Got it, big man. You should get some rest."

"Yeah, very good." Lian Haolong said calmly, "Goodbye, I won't see you off."

After saying this, he stood up and left under the guidance of the prison guard.

Lian Haodong glanced at his elder brother, and waited for him to disappear at the door before he stood up, exhaled, and said to himself: "It seems that my elder brother is frightened by that Du guy. He keeps trying to dissuade us when talking about him. We are a club, what are we afraid of? Besides, I, Lian Haodong, am protected by Mr. You, so I have nothing to be afraid of!"

……

Lian Haodong left the detention room and walked out of the Kowloon Police Station. Outside, a brand new black BMW sedan was parked on the side of the road. Because it was so conspicuous, many passers-by looked at it sideways. Lian Haodong couldn't help but take a few more glances and thought to himself, "What a beautiful car. I wonder which boss owns it?" After saying that, he looked at his own ordinary white Honda.

Next to the Honda, his men Xigui and Wutou were leaning against the car and smoking. When they saw him coming out, they quickly put out their cigarettes and ran over: "Brother Dong, have you seen Brother Long?"

Lian Haodong nodded.

The little ghost helped him open the car door.

Seeing that Lian Haodong looked depressed, the two men held back the questions they had wanted to ask.

Lian Haodong was about to get in the car when he saw the brand new BMW slowly driving up to him.

The BMW stopped.

The car door opened and Li Zhaoheng's trusted subordinate Li Tiansheng got out of the car.

He was wearing a well-ironed suit and looked very gentlemanly.

"Brother Sheng, why is it you?" Lian Haodong asked in surprise.

Li Tiansheng said nothing and threw the car keys in his hand to Lian Haodong.

Lian Haodong caught it hastily, not understanding what was going on.

Li Tiansheng pointed to the brand new black BMW in the driveway behind him and said, "This car will be yours from now on!"

"Uh, how can that be possible?"

"There's nothing impossible about it. How can you work for Mr. Li without a good car? Wouldn't that be embarrassing for Mr. Li?" Li Tiansheng said with a smile.

Lian Haodong looked at the black BMW and felt warm inside. He quickly said to Li Tiansheng, "Then thank Mr. Li for me!"

"He said that. You're welcome! Besides, I came here to visit your elder brother today on the orders of Mr. Li. I didn't expect such a coincidence that I could hand over the car to you!"

"Mr. Li, do you still remember my elder brother?" Lian Haodong was excited again.

"Of course! Mr. Li will remember whoever does something for him." Li Tiansheng said with a smile, "Don't worry, I have already told the prison director that your brother will be transferred out of the heavy prison soon. Mr. Li will arrange a separate room for him and take care of the boss over there. Food and drink won't be a problem!"

Lian Haodong was very grateful this time: "Thank you, Mr. Li! Thank you so much! But my eldest brother has a bad temper. When I saw him just now, he said that he didn't need Mr. Li's help."

"Haha, all of this is understandable." Li Tiansheng said with a smile, "Mr. Li actually guessed it a long time ago. He said that you two brothers have a deep bond and he doesn't want to implicate you, so he is reluctant to accept Mr. Li's kindness. But it doesn't matter, time will prove everything. Mr. Li said that his sincerity will soon be seen by you brothers! It's just a matter of time."

"I believe it. Please thank Mr. Li again for me." Lian Haodong said excitedly.

Li Tiansheng nodded, and suddenly changed the subject: "You don't need to say more words of thanks. If you really want to thank Mr. Li, do something for him first!" "What is it? If I can do it, I will do my best!"

"It's very simple!" Li Tiansheng stepped forward and said, "Set a fire and burn the Ming Pao!"

"Ah?" Lian Haodong was stunned.

Li Tiansheng saw everything. He was just doing what Li Zhaoheng told him to do.

According to Li Zhaoheng's investigation, Du Yongxiao wanted to take over Ming Pao, so well, just set it on fire and burn it down so that you can't get it. In addition, Du Yongxiao and Ming Pao are now at odds with each other, and public opinion may even think that it was Du Yongxiao who did it secretly. This is killing two birds with one stone.

"Why, you don't want to?" Li Tiansheng asked with a smile.

"No, it's——"

"That's good!" Li Tiansheng patted Lian Haodong on the shoulder. "I know you have a lot of doubts, but remember, just do whatever Mr. Li asks you to do, and don't ask too many questions."

"Yes!"

Lian Haodong nodded.

Next, Li Tiansheng gave Lian Haodong a few more instructions before turning around and leaving. Looking at the other person's back, Lian Haodong took a deep breath.

"Brother Dong, are we really going to set fire to the Ming Pao?"

"Yes, Brother Dong, Ming Pao is very sharp. Burning it will cause public outrage."

Xigui and Wutou said.

Lian Haodong's expression changed. "If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who would know that we were the ones who set fire to Ming Pao? Besides, I heard that Ming Pao and Du Yongxiao are at odds with each other. If we set fire to Ming Pao, we can directly put the blame on him!"

"Ah?" Xigui and Wutou looked at each other, swallowed their saliva and said, "The Du family is not easy to mess with. If we do this, will it--"

"What will happen? Have you forgotten how he treated my eldest brother? How he treated us loyal and faithful people?" Lian Haodong said angrily, "If you don't have the guts, I'll find someone else to do it!"

"What are you coughing about? Brother Dong, are you going to let us two do it?" Xigui and Wutou asked, pointing at his nose.

"Nonsense! Now the only people I can trust are you two! Do you have any objections?" Lian Haodong's eyes flashed with ferocity.

"Ahem, how could that be? Thank you so much for your trust, Brother Dong!"

"Yes, we have always supported you, Brother Dong!"

"If you support me, stop talking nonsense!" Lian Haodong said impatiently, "Take concrete actions, OK?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Brother Dong, you are right!"

Seeing Xigui and Wutou nod, Lian Haodong calmed down, took the car keys and walked towards the brand new BMW.

Xigui and Wutou also hurriedly followed.

"Wow, what a beautiful car!"

"What a BMW! I can finally ride in one today!"

Xigui and Wutou touched the car body with excitement.

Lian Haodong turned around and glared at them: "Be careful, don't scratch it! It's a new car!"

"It's Brother Dong!"

The two of them were laughing and when they saw Lian Haodong get on the car, they hurriedly followed and tried to squeeze in.

Lian Haodong yelled at them, "What are you doing?"

"Take a ride!"

"What the hell are you going to do?" Lian Haodong said, "You guys take that Honda first! It's a new car, what if you make it dirty?"

"what?"

"What? Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? Do you look so ugly that you don't deserve this luxury car?" Lian Haodong said unhappily, "Drive back quickly and find a way to burn the Ming Pao newspaper! Remember, keep your hands and feet clean and don't cause me any trouble!"

After Lian Haodong finished speaking, he didn't even look at the two younger brothers anymore. He started the car and drove away.

Watching the luxury car go away, Xigui and Wutou scratched their heads and said, "Fuck you! You don't even allow luxury cars to be built, and you want us to set fire to them!"

"No wonder Brother Long said you are a hopeless person! Without Brother Long, I think this loyalty and trustworthiness will be over sooner or later!"

The two men were cursing and venting their dissatisfaction, but they saw the BMW stubbornly turn around and come back.

The two were startled and quickly covered their mouths, thinking that Lian Haodong had heard their cursing.

The sound of a BMW creaking was heard in front of them. Lian Haodong opened the window and waved his finger at the two of them.

"Brother Dong, what's the matter?"

The two of them hurried over.

Lian Haodong took out his wallet and pulled out a thousand-yuan bill.

Xigui and Wutou were both delighted.

Lian Haodong looked at the money, stuffed it back, took out three 100-Hong Kong-dollar bills, handed them to the two men, and said, "Hey, don't say I'm mistreating you! Use this money to buy some gasoline, and the rest to eat something delicious, Chinese or Western food, whatever!"

After Lian Haodong finished speaking, he didn't even look at the two of them. He stuffed the money into their pockets and drove away.

The two looked at the luxury car they left, and then looked at the three hundred Hong Kong dollars in their hands-——
"Western food? This amount of money is not even enough to buy a bunch of fish balls!"
