Hong Kong General: The Departed? No, I am the Hong Kong Island Tyrant

Chapter 64 Don’t say what you shouldn’t say

"The West Kowloon Crime Unit and the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau have joined forces to successfully solve a drug case worth tens of millions of dollars—"

"Senior Inspector Gao Zongyang of the Mong Kok Anti-Triad Unit died in the line of duty—"

"The former 'King of Southern Fist', now the Kowloon drug lord 'Mai Rongyan' has been brought to justice——"

The next day, several newspapers simultaneously reported on the drug deal that took place last night.

As expected, it instantly caused an uproar throughout Hong Kong Island.

Whether it is a drug case worth tens of millions, the death of a senior inspector, or the death of drug lord Mai Rongyan, if it happened under normal circumstances, each one would be big news that would shock countless citizens.

But now, all three things happened in the same case.

What's more, the police also found more than 100 kilograms of drugs, a number of guns and ammunition, and the bodies of seven people including Mai Rongen were all laid out at the messy dock scene.

All these evidences are sufficient to prove the authenticity of this case.

For a time, the world was in turmoil and all major societies were talking about it.

At the same time, the police also released news at the same time.

On TV, Chief Inspector Lu Qichang of the West Kowloon Serious Crime Unit and his subordinate Ma Jun were seen being interviewed by reporters.

Facing the camera, Lu Qichang said righteously: "Last night we received a request for support from the anti-gang group, saying that there was a drug deal at the dock, so I immediately ordered my subordinate Inspector Ma Jun to lead people to the dock for support and fought a desperate battle with the drug dealers."

"Finally, with the cooperation of our serious crime team and anti-gang team, we successfully killed seven drug dealers including the drug dealer leader Mai Rongen. We also found more than 10 million worth of No. 4 flour and various types of guns at the scene..."

As he spoke, a trace of regret appeared on Lu Qichang's face, and he shook his head and sighed: "But unfortunately, in the process of arresting drug dealers, Senior Inspector Gao Zongyang of the Anti-Black Team died in the line of duty."

"Officer Gao Zongyang has always been a police officer with a strong sense of justice and performed well in the police force. We are very sorry for his sacrifice. This is a huge loss for the entire police force and also a loss for all Hong Kong Island citizens..."

"Excuse me, Officer Lu, I have to interrupt you for a moment."

A reporter interrupted, "Excuse me, since you and Officer Gao belong to different departments, how do you know that he is a police officer with a strong sense of justice and performs well in the police force?"

Lu Qichang coughed lightly and said calmly, "Oh... I also heard this from my colleagues in the anti-gang group..."

……

Mong Kok Police Station.

The police chief, deputy commander, two sergeants and six police officers who participated in the operation last night were all sitting in the office, watching the broadcast on TV.

One police officer said angrily:

"Fuck it, we were the first to arrive at the scene, and they rushed over later and took advantage. They weren't the ones who killed the drug dealer, but now it seems like they are the main force and we are just cooperating in the case."

"They are the ones who took the credit and accepted the interview. This is really too much!"

Most of the others were also outraged and felt it was extremely unfair.

Only the police chief sighed, not surprised by the situation.

Stealing credit for other people's work is a very common thing in the police force.

What's more, the serious crime squad cannot be said to be stealing the credit, after all, they did participate in solving the case last night.

As for who is the leader and who is the follower, it depends on whether their superiors are capable enough.

But it was their boss' bad luck that led to his failure.

Otherwise, with Gao Zongyang's greedy nature, he would definitely argue with the serious crime team and might even make things worse. In the end, the main credit would definitely go to their anti-gang team, or at least it would be the same credit.

But now, it's too late to say anything.

Moreover, because of Gao Zongyang's failure, not only are they now unable to accept interviews and rewards from their superiors, but the entire team must also accept inquiries from the Internal Affairs Investigation Section and may even be punished.

The death of a senior inspector is really no small matter.

Especially since this person is their boss, and all the rest of them are fine.

"Ugh……"

The police chief sighed inwardly and felt very annoyed.

What the hell is this called?
Gao Zongyang, this bastard, is dead already, but he still wants to implicate them!

Tread...  

Suddenly, footsteps were heard at the door, followed by a police officer wearing a white shirt and three flowers on his shoulders who walked in.

"Sir Xu!"

Everyone's faces turned serious and they all stood up and saluted.

This person is the chief inspector of the O-Triad B2 group and Gao Zongyang’s direct superior, Xu Peiwei.

Xu Peiwei nodded, then looked at the police chief and said, "Awei, the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs are here."

The police chief Ah Wei felt nervous, then nodded in a depressed tone: "Yes, Sir Xu."

Xu Peiwei stared at him closely and asked in a deep voice, "I'll ask you one last time, what exactly happened with last night's case?"

"You really don't know that Gao Sir died in the line of duty?"

Ah Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Sir Xu, we received an order from Sir Gao last night to work overtime. At nearly 8:30, he said he had received a tip-off that there were drug dealers at the docks, and he also asked us to bring heavy firepower to arrest the drug dealers."

"Later, when we arrived at the scene, we saw that there was indeed a gunfight between drug dealers. But just as we were about to take action, the serious crime squad arrived and said that they had also received a tip-off, so they came over."

Xu Peiwei frowned and asked, "What happened next?"

"Later, Gao Sir was arguing with the assistant of the serious crime team named Ma Jun, but he suddenly received a phone call and went to the dock alone. When we found him, he was dead and there was no one else around."

Xu Peiwei frowned even more tightly and said, "So you were also at the scene at that time, but you didn't persuade him? As the commander at the scene, how could you act alone?!"

"I advised you!"

Ah Wei said helplessly: "At first he said that there were some of our guys among the drug dealers, so I tried to persuade him, but he said they were all drug dealers and ordered them all to be shot. Later he went to the dock alone and I also tried to persuade him, but he ordered me not to follow him."

"Mr. Xu, you also know Mr. Gao's character. How dare we not listen to him?"

Hearing this, Xu Peiwei fell silent.

Based on his understanding of Gao Zongyang, it was not surprising that Gao Zongyang did such a thing. At that time, he probably wanted to kill the undercover as well, so he ordered all the drug dealers to be shot.

So, his death might be related to the undercover agent...

Xu Peiwei narrowed his eyes, looked at Ah Wei and asked, "Where are Mr. Gao's phone and computer?"

"Someone from the forensic department came and took it away this morning."

Xu Peiwei nodded and said, "Okay, I will take the application back to the forensic department for investigation. You should cooperate with the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the investigation first, and don't say anything that you shouldn't say."

After saying that, Xu Peiwei turned around and left, leaving behind A Wei and others who were confused.

No, Sir Xu, please explain it clearly.

What does it mean not to say what you shouldn’t say?
……

at the same time.

In a low-rent apartment in Wan Chai, a sturdy man with his upper body naked was watching the news on TV with an extremely gloomy face.

"I have been practicing martial arts for twenty years, and I want to enter the martial arts world and compete with the heroes of the world!"

"I didn't expect that the Southern Fist King would die like this..."

The man muttered in a low voice, with a flash of anger and unwillingness in his eyes.

After a long time, he took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and turned to look at the wall next to him.

The wall is covered with photos, and there is a corresponding name under each photo.

Among them, the photo and name of Southern Boxing Champion Mai Rongen were prominently listed first.

"Mai Rongen is dead, so what's next..."

Ding!
The man's eyes flashed, and a silver swallow suddenly flew out and landed on the second photo.

The photo shows a man in his thirties who looks gentle and artistic.

Below the photo was a three-character name:

Tan Jingyao!
The man looked at the photo, his eyes filled with fighting spirit and murderous intent.

"Ahem...Ash, it's time to eat."

At this moment, accompanied by a cough, a woman with a gentle temperament but a pale face walked in from outside and called softly to the man.

The murderous intent in the man's eyes disappeared, and he turned to look at the woman, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded and said, "Okay."

……

This side of Nathan Road.

Di Qing had also gotten up and was sitting on the sofa watching the news.

Looking at Lu Qichang on TV saying that they rushed over after receiving a call for help from Organized Crime and Triad Bureau, Di Qing couldn't help but smile.

He called Gao Zongyang and Ma Jun last night while he was in the toilet, but he changed his story when he got to the police.

There were also seven other people including Mai Rongen, who were all killed by them. The police just shot them a few more times when the fight was almost over.

But now it’s all the police’s credit.

“This is the sadness of the times!”

Di Qing shook his head with a hint of sarcasm on his face.

He was not targeting Lu Qichang, but because this was the nature of the times.

The police force, which is dominated by foreigners, has long been rotten from top to bottom.

There are very few people who truly have justice in their hearts and are serious about protecting the people and standing up for the citizens.

Moreover, these people basically cannot climb to high positions, and even if they have the intention, they do not have the right to do so.

Although the incident at the dock last night had nothing to do with the police, even if Lu Qichang wanted to report the truth, his superiors would not allow it.

What the higher-ups want is honor and credit; as for the truth, that’s not important.

But this was exactly what he wanted, because he called Ma Jun to get him to take advantage and make the serious crime squad owe him a favor.

In this way, when I am transferred there, maybe I can also get some credit for this case as an informant.

"The news of Gao Zongyang's death has spread. The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs should be investigating it, right? Maybe it won't be long before they find out about me..."

Di Qing murmured in a low voice, his eyes flickering.

He never thought that he could conceal what happened last night and prevent the police from finding out about him.

At least the last phone call he made to Gao Zongyang last night can prove that Gao Zongyang's death was related to him.

But without definite evidence, he wasn't worried.

The only thing he needs to consider now is how to explain to the Ministry of Internal Affairs when they summon him.

Besides, it's time to consider the transfer...

"Drip drip..."

Just then, the phone suddenly rang.

When Di Qing picked it up and looked at it, he couldn't help but smile. It was really a telepathic connection.

Di Qing glanced at Qiu Di and A Run who were busy in the kitchen, then walked to the bathroom and answered the phone: "Hello?"

"Brother Jun, congratulations!"

On the other end of the phone, Ma Jun ignored Di Qing's congratulations. Instead, he said in a serious tone, "Shark En's death was caused by you, wasn't it?"

"Ah?" Di Qing was stunned.

Am I exposed?
