Hong Kong Film: Short mules have no future, I am in charge of Hong Kong

Chapter 223: Find out the person behind Chen Qing!

"Delay time?" Su Hanze smiled coldly, his eyes sweeping across the yard like a knife. "The more Chen Qing wants to delay time, the more guilty he is. Tonight, I will capture not only the goods, but also his people."

A Kuan didn't say anything else. Once Su Hanze made up his mind, he would not give his opponent any chance to breathe.

Time passed by bit by bit, and the atmosphere became more and more tense. The lights in the yard flickered, and the sound of cargo loading and unloading could be heard faintly. It was Chen Qing's men nervously completing the final deployment. Su Hanze stood on a high place, his eyes calmly scanning the entire dock, and his mind quickly calculated every possible variable.

Suddenly, the spy's low voice reported in the headset: "Brother Ze, a group of strangers were found on the south side of the yard. They are well equipped. They should be the reinforcements sent by Chen Qing."

Su Hanze narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sneer rose at the corner of his mouth: "His people finally couldn't bear it anymore."

He turned to look at Ah Kuan and Liu Jing, his tone was resolute, "Divide into two groups. Ah Kuan and his men will cut in from the south to block the reinforcements. Liu Jing will follow me and attack from the front. Be careful not to give them any chance to breathe."

Ah Kuan nodded, and quickly led a team of people to quietly disappear into the night. Liu Jingze followed Su Hanze and advanced towards the front from the path outside the yard.

The night wind became more biting, and the sounds in the yard gradually became clearer. Su Hanze and a few others approached quickly, and locked their eyes on a brightly lit area. That was where the cargo ship was docked, and several men who looked like workers were busy moving the cargo.

"Get started." Su Hanze's voice was low, but it was like a floodgate of commands being opened.

Gunshots rang out instantly, tearing the quiet dock apart. Chen Qing's men obviously did not expect to be attacked suddenly. In the chaos, some people tried to fight back, but were quickly shot down by the ambushing snipers.

"Protect the goods!" A leading man shouted loudly, trying to organize a counterattack, but before he could fire a shot, he was kicked to the ground by Liu Jing and his weapon was taken away.

"Protect? Whose life are you protecting?" Liu Jing looked at him coldly, the muzzle of the gun in his hand pointed steadily at the other's head, "Tell me, where is Chen Qing?"

The man's face turned pale and he opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

On the other side, Ah Kuan and his men had successfully cut off the reinforcements from the south. The fierce hand-to-hand combat plunged the entire yard into fire and smoke.

Su Hanze walked slowly to the front of the cargo ship, glanced at the loaded cargo boxes, and opened one at random. The contents of the box were just as expected, a batch of highly sensitive materials, obviously carefully disguised smuggled goods.

He looked coldly at the subdued enemies, his voice piercing with chill: "Does Chen Qing think that these things can save his life?"

No one answered, only a few people lowered their heads and trembled all over.

Su Hanze's eyes became even colder. He turned around slowly, his tone calm but like a verdict: "Take all these people away, and seize the goods as well. Tell Chen Qing that tonight is his last gamble."

A burst of hurried footsteps came from behind. It was Ah Kuan leading his men back. He panted and said, "Brother Ze, we cut off the reinforcement route, but some of them still escaped."

"Escaped?" Su Hanze raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Ah Kuan coldly, "Those people will definitely go find Chen Qing. There is no way he will give up the last counterattack."

Ah Kuan nodded: "Our people are already tracking it, and there should be news soon."

Su Hanze stood beside the cargo ship, looked up at the port in the distance, and whispered: "Chen Qing has been hiding in the dark, thinking he can control the overall situation. Unfortunately, every step he takes is in my plan."

He turned to look at Liu Jing and A Kuan, and said with a firm tone: "Keep chasing him. Don't give him any chance tonight."

The smell of gunpowder had not yet dissipated, and the air in the port was still full of oppression. The sound of waves in the distance and the occasional whispers nearby intertwined, and the entire dock seemed to be waiting for some kind of imminent end. Su Hanze stood beside the cargo ship, looking up slightly at the thick clouds in the sky. There was no expression on his face, but his eyes were like those of a hawk, calm and sharp.

"Brother Ze, the man we just captured has spoken." Ah Kuan walked over quickly, holding a temporary confession in his hand, and lowered his voice, "Chen Qing's people have moved to an abandoned factory on the north side. It is said that he is waiting there to receive the last batch of goods. This is his last hiding place."

Su Hanze took the record, glanced at it casually, and raised his lips slightly: "Abandoned factory? He really knows how to find a place."

Ah Kuan nodded, his expression serious. “The factory is in a remote location, with only a few small roads around it, so it’s very convenient to go in and out. If he has ambushed someone there, our operation might be very troublesome.”

"Trouble?" Su Hanze chuckled, folded up the record in his hand and stuffed it into his windbreaker pocket. "Chen Qing's troubles have just begun."

Liu Jing walked over from a distance, holding a walkie-talkie in his hand: "Brother Ze, the people outside have completed the control. As long as we take action, he will definitely not be able to escape."

Su Hanze turned to look at Liu Jing, his tone cold and calm: "Notify everyone not to rush to expose themselves. Let Chen Qing think that everything is under his control, and wait for him to fall into the trap."

Liu Jing nodded and quickly went to make arrangements.

The night became darker, and the lights of the port gradually dimmed, as if the whole world was immersed in a dead silence. Su Hanze got into the car, his eyes fell on the passing scenery outside the car window, his fingers tapped lightly on his knees, and his mind quickly calculated the next plan.

Ah Kuan was sitting in the co-pilot seat and couldn't help but whisper, "Brother Ze, Chen Qing has obviously set up a trap. Isn't it a bit risky for us to go like this?"

"Risk?" Su Hanze raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of coldness in his tone, "He thought he set up a very clever plan, but in fact every step is under my control. Tonight, what I want is not his ambush, but his head."

A Kuan didn't say anything else, just nodded, and the expression on his face became more solemn.

The convoy slowly drove into the vicinity of the abandoned factory. There was silence all around, with only a few weak street lamps emitting dim light, casting mottled shadows on the ground. Su Hanze got out of the car, glanced at the surrounding environment, and whispered: "A Kuan, you lead the people to encircle them from the flank and cut off their retreat. Liu Jing, the people in the front follow my command and don't let them have any chance to counterattack."

The two nodded at the same time, and each took their men into action quickly.

The door of the abandoned factory was half-closed, and the sound of several people talking in low voices could be vaguely heard from inside. Su Hanze gently pushed the door open and walked in steadily. His eyes swept around the dim factory and quickly caught the figures of several guards in the corner. "Brother Ze, there are not many guards, about five or six people." Liu Jing reported in a low voice, his fingers tightly gripping the handle of the gun.

Su Hanze nodded slightly and said softly, "Let's deal with the periphery first, don't alert the enemy."

Several ambushed men approached silently and quickly subdued the guards. The atmosphere in the factory became increasingly tense, and an indescribable sense of oppression permeated the air.

After going deep into the factory, Su Hanze's eyes fell on a locked iron door. He raised his hand to signal his men to come closer and whispered, "Open the door."

One of his men quickly took out a tool and skillfully pried open the lock. The iron door slowly opened, revealing the dim space inside. Several old chandeliers emitted a faint light. Chen Qing was sitting on a worn-out sofa, holding a glass of wine in his hand, with a cold and calm expression on his face.

"Su Hanze." Chen Qing raised his head and looked directly at him, a sneer on his face. "I knew you would come."

"Of course." Su Hanze walked in slowly, his eyes falling coldly on Chen Qing, "Every move you make tells me that you are waiting for me."

Chen Qing shook his wine glass gently, and said in a low and mocking voice: "Since you are here, it means you admit that I am still one step higher than you."

"Really?" Su Hanze raised his lips slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes. "Do you think this place can protect you?"

Chen Qing put down his wine glass, slowly stood up, and said with a hint of coldness in his tone: "Whether you can protect her or not depends on whether you have the ability to do so."

Before he finished speaking, hurried footsteps were suddenly heard in the factory, and dozens of fully armed men rushed out from all directions and surrounded Su Hanze and his men.

Ah Kuan came from the back door and said in a low voice with a serious face: "Brother Ze, the outer roads are blocked. They have more people than we expected."

Su Hanze remained calm, his eyes swept over the enemies, and his voice was cold and calm: "Chen Qing, is this your last fight?"

Chen Qing sneered, with a smug look in his eyes: "What do you think? Can you walk out of here today?"

"You'll know whether you can get out or not in a moment." Su Hanze's voice was low, but it carried a kind of pressure that could not be ignored.

The next second, he suddenly pulled out his gun, his movements were as fast as lightning, and he shot a man next to Chen Qing. The scene suddenly fell into chaos, the sound of gunfire from both sides intertwined fiercely in the factory, and the shadows on the wall were reflected by the firelight.

Su Hanze calmly commanded his men to counterattack while approaching Chen Qing step by step. Each of his steps was steady and powerful, as if all the chaos could not shake his will.

"Do you think you can beat me with these rubbish?" Su Hanze shouted in the chaos, his voice clearly reaching Chen Qing's ears, "Your game was a joke from the beginning!"

Chen Qing's expression finally changed. He subconsciously took a few steps back, trying to find cover, but his retreat was blocked by Liu Jing from the other side.

Su Hanze looked at him coldly, the gun in his hand pointed steadily at his forehead, "Do you have any last words?"

The sound of gunfire echoed in the abandoned factory for a long time, like a low death knell, ringing the curtain for Chen Qing. The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the light swayed and sprinkled on the ground, reflected by the broken glass and scattered bullet shells.

Chen Qing's body fell to the ground, and blood quickly spread on the cold concrete floor. His eyes were still open, as if with a final unwillingness, but the light in his eyes had completely dimmed.

Su Hanze stood there, with a wisp of smoke coming out of the muzzle of the gun in his hand. His hand was as steady as a rock, and his face was expressionless. He just glanced at Chen Qing's body, then raised his head and looked at the enemies who were still standing. Those people had completely lost the will to resist, raised their hands above their heads, and their faces were full of fear.

"Take them all away." Su Hanze's voice was low and cold, like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.

Ah Kuan stepped forward quickly and told his men to tie up the enemies one by one. His movements were sharp, but his expression was not relaxed at all: "Brother Ze, the scene has been cleaned up, and no one has escaped. But there are still some scattered people at several intersections outside. Do we need to continue chasing them?"

"No need." Su Hanze slowly put away his gun, looked down at Chen Qing, and said with a hint of cold sarcasm in his voice, "If Chen Qing dies, they will just scatter like birds and beasts. It will only be a waste of time for us to chase them."

Ah Kuan nodded, but there was still some worry in his eyes: "Brother Ze, although Chen Qing's plan was completely broken by us this time, the people behind him may not give up easily."

Su Hanze raised his head and looked coldly towards the end of the factory, which was the direction leading to the port. His voice was low and firm: "What if you don't give up? Chen Qing dared to do this all these years, only because he relied on the support of the people behind him. But today, his death is a warning. If you want to take action on this land, you have to consider whether I am willing to let them go."

Liu Jing came over from the other side, with a trace of fatigue on his face, but more of a hint of excitement: "Brother Ze, all the goods and documents have been counted, do you want to see them yourself?"

Su Hanze nodded and motioned for him to lead the way.

A few minutes later, they came to a storage room in the factory, which was filled with the goods that Chen Qing secretly smuggled this time. The boxes were opened one by one, and the items inside made A Kuan gasp: "Brother Ze, the value of this batch of goods may be beyond our imagination. High-precision equipment, rare materials, and many components of special weapons... If these things are leaked, the consequences will be disastrous."

"I'm afraid these things are not just for smuggling." Liu Jing squatted down, picked up a small instrument and examined it for a while, frowning, "Chen Qing wants to use them to get more than just money. He wants to use these resources to get a bigger backer."

"Climbing on?" Su Hanze smiled coldly, with a hint of contempt in his voice, "Unfortunately, his backer is gone."

He glanced at the boxes and said in a low voice, "Take all these things back and divide them into two parts. One part will be handed over to the officials to deal with, and the other part will be kept as our bargaining chip."

Ah Kuan was slightly stunned, then nodded: "Brother Ze, what you mean is, use these things to lure out the person behind Chen Qing?"

Su Hanze nodded slowly, his eyes revealing an unfathomable coldness: "Chen Qing is just a test, their real goal has not been exposed yet. If we make these things disappear without a trace, they will naturally come to us."
