Chapter 328 The Ether Conference
Meanwhile, the mysterious Rowan has been frequently visiting Su Xingbai lately.
Besides supplying goods to Su Xingbai, she was also subtly trying to win him over.
"How about the 82 Lafite?" In the Peninsula Hotel's upscale restaurant, Rowan handed a bottle of fine wine to Su Xingbo: "Consider it a celebration of your resounding victory."
Su Xingbai took a sip of red wine and then said to Luo Wen, "I have to thank you for supplying me with these goods. But you certainly know how to enjoy yourself. An '82 Lafite, that stuff isn't cheap."
Rowan laughed and said, "Money is meant to be spent. Mike, you're the same way, all those fancy suits and luxury sports cars, you don't look like a mob boss at all."
Su Xingbo smiled and said, "I'm not like those short mules with such bad taste."
“Well said.” Rowan laughed and said, “I knew I hadn’t misjudged you. You’re highly educated, have good taste, and are just like us.”
Su Xingbai's heart skipped a beat: "You guys?"
"Of course, you don't think I'm working alone, do you?" Rowan said with a smile. "This batch of goods you have is all top-quality stuff from South America. It was provided by our organization. It's one of a kind in the world."
"What organization is so powerful?" Su Xingbai asked curiously.
Rowan smiled faintly and said, "The Ether Society, have you heard of it?"
The name Ether Society isn't widely known, but Su Xingbo had indeed heard of it.
He only learned about it through Chen Jiajun, but he didn't expect that Ether would personally come to win him over.
“I’ve heard of it. It’s an international criminal organization. I’ve heard it has quite a background,” Su Xingbai nodded and said.
Rowan smiled and said, "Would you be interested in joining our Ether Society?"
"Join the Ether Society? What are the benefits?" Su Xingbo said calmly, "Although you're rumored to be very powerful, I know nothing about you."
Rowan chuckled and lowered his voice, saying, "After we get to know each other better, you'll understand the benefits of joining the Ether Society. As a token of our friendship, we're planning to help you take over the leadership of Yifeng. What do you think?"
"Damn it, you're really wicked. That's so despicable!"
In a noisy bar, Han Bin heard Su Xingbo's plan and immediately spat out the beer in his mouth, laughing loudly and patting Su Xingbo on the shoulder.
Su Xingbai said helplessly, "Mo Yilie is an old fox who leaves no room for error, and my foundation is very shallow. How can I help the boss get this done without taking a gamble?"
"And even though I'm in the lead this time, there are very few people in the entire Yi Feng who support me, but there are plenty of people who support Spicy Ginger. If I keep fighting with him, I might not even know when Spicy Ginger will kill me."
Han Bin nodded and said, "Alright, what did you want to talk to me about today? It's not just about this, is it?"
Su Xingbo said with a serious expression, "Please tell the boss that I plan to take action against Mo Yilie."
Han Bin frowned and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Is it because of the pressure from the spicy ginger?"
Su Xingbo shook his head and said, "It's not just because of that. There's also the fact that Luo Wen is a member of the Ether Society. He plans to help me take over the Yifeng territory and then recruit me into the Ether Society."
Upon hearing Su Xingbai's words, Han Bin's expression immediately turned serious: "Are you sure it's the Ether Society?"
"Luo Wen told me this himself," Su Xingbai nodded and said.
Han Bin stroked his chin: "Okay, I'll inform the boss about this right away."
After saying that, Han Bin took it out and told Chen Jiajun about it.
Chen Jiajun was quite surprised to hear this. He had thought that Yitai would behave itself for a while, but it turned out that it was still up to no good. This time, it had changed its tactics and set its sights on the small gang, Yifeng.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Jiajun said, "Tell Su Xingbai that since the Ether Society has come to us, we should use it. Don't worry too much. After we've dealt with Mo Yilie, I'll take care of things with the Ether Society."
After receiving a positive reply from Chen Jiajun, Su Xingbo immediately decided to get to work.
It would be foolish not to take advantage of such a great opportunity.
For a period of time afterward, Su Xingbo actively contacted people from the Ether Society.
How do I get the position of Yifeng's leader?
It has to be said that Ether is very good at keeping things hidden, as he actually discovered that Spicy Ginger was an undercover police officer.
After thinking it over, Su Xingbo decided to keep this leverage for a crucial moment.
The most important thing now is to deal with Mo Yilie.
The son-in-law that Su Xingbai found was also quite capable, and he quickly won Ding Min over.
This even led Ding Min to consider eloping with him.
At the same time, his attitude towards Mo Yilie became increasingly cold, and he realized that he was just a pawn in Mo Yilie's hands.
Upon hearing his son-in-law's report, Su Xingbo smiled and said, "It's almost done."
Bao Deng said with some concern, "Boss, isn't it a bit hasty for us to take action against Mo Yilie like this? Ding Min alone can't handle this old fox."
Su Xingbai said confidently, "Of course I know, but Ding Min controls Mo Yilie's warehouse. If something happens to the warehouse, do you think Mo Yilie will stand idly by? That's tens of millions of dollars worth of goods."
Bao Deng quickly realized what was going on: "Boss, you want to cooperate with the cops?"
“Of course, reporting drug trafficking is the duty of every citizen of Hong Kong,” Su Xingbo said with a smile.
"So what should we do next?" Bao Deng asked.
“Now that all the conditions are met, all we need is a trigger,” Su Xingbo said with a sneer. “We need to cause a car accident.”
Inside a luxury store in Central, Ding Min is chatting with her son-in-law.
Ding Min has decided that after helping Mo Yilie finish selling this batch of goods, she will take the money she has saved and run away with her son-in-law.
Just as the two were dreaming about the future, a commotion broke out outside.
Ding Min discovered that her car had been rear-ended, and the entire trunk was damaged.
This immediately alarmed Ding Min, as there was another shipment on her truck.
If the police are called, I'll be in deep trouble no matter what.
Ding Min hurriedly hung up the phone and planned to drive away.
But then the man who was loading the car quickly came over and said, "I'm sorry, I hit your car. I'll pay you back however much it costs."
Ding Min wanted to leave quickly, so she casually said, "It's alright, it's nothing. I have to go."
The man persisted, saying, "Let's make things clearer. You sign this to show we've reached a settlement. Otherwise, there will be trouble."
Ding Min said impatiently, "I said I don't need it."
The man blocked Ding Min's car and said, "Let's talk this out."
Just as Ding Min was about to shake off the man's entanglement, a patrol car suddenly drove up from the roadside.
Two patrol officers walked over and asked, "What's going on?"
Ding Min had never seen such a scene before. Panicked, she stepped on the gas and sped off.
In a panic, Ding Min immediately tried to call Mo Yilie, but the call didn't go through.
Seeing that the police had set up roadblocks ahead, Ding Min knew she couldn't escape, so she gritted her teeth and got out of the car.
But she soon discovered something was wrong. The people setting up the checkpoint didn't seem to be police officers at all; instead, they looked like gangsters from a triad.
After stopping Ding Min, they drove up in a van and dragged her into it.
Ding Min immediately screamed, "Who are you people? Why are you arresting me?"
"Sister Min, don't you know who we are? Brother Lie asked us to give you our regards." The two thugs sneered and prepared to attack Ding Min.
Ding Min was struck dumb by their words; she never imagined that Mo Yilie could be so ruthless.
He noticed something was wrong and planned to kill himself to silence him.
Just when Ding Min was in despair, a car suddenly came speeding up and crashed hard into the side of the van.
The van was overturned by the impact, and the people inside were thrown around in a daze.
At that moment, someone got out of the car and took the semi-conscious Ding Min away.
When Ding Min regained consciousness, she found herself in a room, and the person guarding her was her boyfriend, her son-in-law.
"Amin, are you alright?" the son-in-law asked with concern.
Ding Min immediately started crying to her son-in-law, "I almost died. I never thought this guy would be so ruthless and try to kill me to silence me."
The son-in-law deliberately said, "Since he's so heartless, let's go all the way and expose Mo Yilie's drug hiding place to the police. Then we'll use the police's witness protection plan to escape abroad."
Ding Min clearly still had some concerns.
But what her son-in-law said next swayed her: "Think about it, now that Mo Yilie has already made his move, even if you pretend nothing happened, do you think he'll let you go? It just so happens that I was planning to come and find you today, otherwise you wouldn't even know how you died."
Hearing her son-in-law's concerned words, Ding Min gritted her teeth and decided to turn against him.
"Boss, it's done. Ding Min revealed where Mo Yilie hid the drugs." Bao Deng said excitedly, "Now this woman is planning to go to the police station with her son-in-law to report the case."
"Okay." Su Xingbai clapped his hands and said, "Spread this news and tell Mo Yilie."
Bao Deng nodded and said, "I'll do it right away."
Less than two hours later, Mo Yilie received word that Ding Min had gone to the police station to file a report.
This immediately made Mo Yilie tense: "What on earth is that bitch thinking? Has she gone mad?"
Mo Yilie's confidant, Tank, said, "Boss, what do we do now? Ding Min is definitely under police protection. If she exposes the warehouse, our entire gang will be doomed."
Mo Yilie immediately stood up and said, "Take your men and go to the columbarium to move our goods immediately." Tank nodded and immediately mobilized his men to follow Mo Yilie.
Upon arriving at the columbarium in Wong Tai Sin District, Mo Yilie immediately ordered his men to clear the area, and then led them to transfer the ketamine hidden in the columbarium.
To Mo Yilie's surprise, the police acted much faster than he had anticipated.
After obtaining the intelligence from Ding Min, they immediately began to send people to set up surveillance at the cemetery mountain.
In particular, the CIB personnel had been keeping an eye on Mo Yilie for a long time, so they mobilized a lot of manpower to come over.
As soon as Mo Yilie entered the scene, the police immediately began their operation.
What the police didn't expect was that Mo Yilie, that old fox, would also play the double agent game, having planted a mole in the CIB police force long ago.
This kid is Mo Yilie's godson. His father and Mo Yilie are sworn brothers. He received Mo Yilie's financial support to get into police academy.
Now that Mo Yilie is in trouble, he sent intelligence to Mo Yilie despite the risk of exposing himself.
Immediately, the men Mo Yilie brought were caught in a fierce battle with the police.
Since they dared to come out and sell cigarettes, Mo Yilie's confidants were all desperate criminals. They fought the police with all their might, and the police were unable to raise their heads for a while.
Mo Yilie himself had already changed his clothes and, under the protection of his trusted confidant Tank, secretly slipped down the mountain through a secret passage in the columbarium.
"Damn it, how come so many things have to happen out of nowhere?" Tank cursed.
Just now, even he and Mo Yilie were almost discovered by the police, and now their hearts are about to jump out of their chests.
Mo Yilie said with a gloomy face, "There must be a traitor in Yifeng. When I get back, I will find him and tear him to pieces."
Just as the two were talking in hushed tones, a voice rang out: "No need to look anymore, I'm standing right in front of you."
Startled by the voice, the two looked towards the entrance of the passage and saw that Su Xingbai had already led his men towards them.
"Mike, it's you."
Tank was both surprised and furious when he saw Su Xingbo appear: "I knew you weren't a good person from the start."
Mo Yilie said with a gloomy face, "You orchestrated all of this? You also sold ketamine. Cooperating with the police, don't you have to go to jail?"
Su Xingbai spread his hands, looking contemptuous, and said, "Who told you I cooperated with the police? Mo Yilie, everyone says you're cunning and shrewd, how could you ask such a stupid question? Where did your cleverness go when you helped me up and kept the other man in check with Spicy Ginger?"
"You," Mo Yilie said with a look of surprise, "you have quite the ambition, but don't forget that even if you drag me into this, Yifeng still has Spicy Ginger."
Su Xingbo smiled and said, "You still don't understand even when you're about to die. Actually, Yifeng's mole is Spicy Ginger. He's an inspector from the CIB."
"La Jiang is an undercover agent?" Hearing Su Xingbai's words, Mo Yilie was even more surprised.
Knowing that he was already doomed, Su Xingbai had no reason to lie about this issue.
Su Xingbo waved his hand and said, "Alright, stop guessing. You can't imagine the status of my boss, and from the moment you started importing ketamine from Thailand into Hong Kong, it was already your death day."
"After all this nonsense, it's time to send you on your way."
As he spoke, Su Xingbai gave a wink, and his men grinned as they approached Mo Yilie and Tank.
Tank whispered to Mo Yilie, "Boss, you'll have a chance to fight your way out later."
Tank is a brainless thug who has managed to hold his position at Yifeng solely because of his loyalty to Mo Yilie.
Even in his most desperate situation, he is still thinking of Mo Yilie.
Upon hearing Tank's words, Mo Yilie's face showed a complex emotion, and then he slowly nodded.
Tank roared, grabbed his pistol, and started firing wildly in Su Xingbai's direction.
Hopefully, this will open a path for Mo Yilie.
Perhaps under normal circumstances, such a desperate approach might have some effect.
After all, Su Xingbai's men were never known for their martial prowess.
But today is different. The people Su Xingbai brought are not his useless subordinates from before.
Instead, it was a group of orc infantry brothers that Chen Jiajun gave to him.
These bloodthirsty orc infantrymen, wearing heavy bulletproof vests, had no idea what dodging meant.
Faced with the charging tank, they used their hands to protect their heads and rammed directly into the tank.
"What kind of monster is this?" Tank was dumbfounded on the spot. He gritted his teeth, threw away his pistol which was out of bullets, and drew his machete to slash at the nearest orc infantryman.
Unfortunately, the orc infantry didn't even flinch, catching the machete from the tank's hand with their bare hands. With a sneer, they slammed the machete into the tank's face, leaving Yi Feng's number one thug dizzy and disoriented.
Mo Yilie was immediately filled with despair; such combat power was simply beyond his ability to resist.
He could only watch helplessly as the tank was hacked to pieces and then stabbed in the abdomen by an orc infantryman.
This was the first time Su Xingbo had witnessed the strength of the Hung Hing gangsters, and he couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
Even someone like Tank, who would be a force to be reckoned with even in a large triad, couldn't last three moves against a Hung Hing thug.
No wonder Chen Jiajun has lost all interest in the gang's business and handed it all over to his subordinates. With Hung Hing's strength, it would be too easy for them to monopolize Hong Kong.
Hearing footsteps approaching from afar, Su Xingbai ordered his men to leave immediately.
With Mo Yilie dead and the warehouse raided, no one could stop him anymore.
The following day, the police made a major breakthrough.
The news of Mo Yilie, the head of Yifeng, dying spread immediately.
Although Yi Feng was indeed a small gang, it had recently become quite famous in the underworld for its ketamine dealings. No one expected that Mo Yi Lie would collapse so quickly.
This has led other gangs to eye the untapped drug market.
Meanwhile, Yi Feng was already in a state of chaos.
Spicy Ginger thought that Mo Yilie's death was his best opportunity to take over, so he bribed several of his uncles to promote him during meetings.
But at that moment, Su Xingbai spoke up to stop him, saying, "Wait. This matter is not that simple."
Spicy Ginger immediately bristled: "Kid, with so many uncles and elders speaking, who gives you the right to interrupt? Don't you have any sense of hierarchy?"
Su Xingbo sneered and said, "Brother Spicy Ginger, don't try to intimidate me with your seniority. Anyone can sit in this position today, but not you."
"You," Spicy Ginger glared angrily, looking as if she was ready to start a fight at the slightest provocation.
At this moment, the highly respected member of the gang, Mr. Rich, said, "Mike, you have to give a reason why you won't let Spicy Ginger take the position. After all, Spicy Ginger has been in the gang for a long time. In terms of seniority and strength, he is qualified to compete for the position of leader."
Su Xingbo sneered and said, "Mr. Rich, you probably don't know that Brother Spicy Ginger has another identity, do you?"
Upon hearing Su Xingbai's words, Spicy Ginger immediately slammed his fist on the table and shouted, "Don't you dare spout nonsense here!"
Su Xingbo spread his hands and said, "I haven't said anything yet, and you already know I'm making false accusations?"
Seeing Su Xingbai's confident demeanor, Spicy Ginger suddenly became a little nervous.
Although he had been undercover in Yi Fung for many years, even within the police force, perhaps no one knew his true identity.
However, because of his recent help to Mo Yilie distribute goods, his superior, Gong Jiapei, has begun to suspect him.
If his identity is really exposed, it will cause trouble not only for Yifeng, but also for the police.
Seeing the two men banging on the table and chairs, Richie said impatiently, "Mike, just say what you want to say, stop beating around the bush."
Su Xingbo smiled smugly: "Since Master Fu asked me to say it, then I will. I've heard that Spicy Ginger Brother from Yifeng is actually a CIB mole, a needle planted in our Yifeng."
"Nonsense!" Spicy Ginger immediately retorted loudly, "How many years have I been in Yi Fung? How many great contributions have I made to the gang? How long have you been in Yi Fung? I say you're the one who looks like a police undercover agent."
"You were with Liu Changlu before, and Liu Changlu got into trouble. Then you were with Mo Weili, and Weili ended up in the hospital too. Why don't you say you have a problem?"
Spicy Ginger was also quite eloquent; his witty and persuasive remarks earned him the approval of the gang's older members.
Su Xingbo said nonchalantly, "Alright. Let's start the investigation then. But before that, it's best to leave the position of leader vacant. Otherwise, if an undercover agent becomes the leader of Yifeng, everyone will be in trouble."
Su Xingbo wasn't worried about this at all. His main concern right now was preventing La Jiang from taking the position of leader, which would give him more time to move La Jiang.
Hearing Su Xingbai's words, the group of uncles also felt that he made sense.
After a long silence, Master Fu finally spoke up: "Mike's words are not without reason. Ah Lie's body is still warm, so it is indeed not a good time to choose a leader. Let's discuss this matter after Ah Lie's seven-day mourning period."
Upon hearing what Master Fu said, all the uncles and elders chose to support him.
Spicy Ginger was at a loss and could only stare intently at Su Xingbai with sharp eyes.
The murderous intent in his eyes was becoming increasingly difficult to suppress.
However, Su Xingbo is no longer afraid of spicy ginger, not to mention Chen Jiajun behind him.
Even if the Ether Society tries to win him over, they can easily kill Spicy Ginger. Spicy Ginger's threat is now negligible to Su Xingbai.
The meeting ended in discord, and as Spicy Ginger was leaving, he said to Su Xingbai with a sinister look, "Kid, this isn't over."
Su Xingbo retorted without backing down, "Brother Spicy Ginger, what you said scared me to death. You better pray that I don't lose a single hair during this time, otherwise your undercover identity will become real, if not real."
"Hmph." Spicy Ginger snorted coldly, then turned and left with his henchmen. (End of Chapter)
