Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 340 117: The wind rises from the tip of the green reed
(Thanks to the little boy who loves to read historical novels for the six consecutive posts. Thank you, big brother, and I wish you all the best!)
"Is it okay to do this?"

Sister Goose didn't say anything, but Sister Taohua, who was standing next to her, was truly stunned by Brother Ding Gou's actions.

"No problem! I'll give him a hint!"

"Drunk Dragon is already a tainted witness. As long as he signs the document of understanding, no one can hold him accountable even if he says anything."

"But Brother Ding Gou, you can't go too far. You can only say that there is stock, but you can't say how much stock there is."

"If the truth comes out, we will be in big trouble!"

Sister Goose also looked around, and seeing that there was no one around, she quickly spoke out her thoughts.

"Bosses are hungry fish, they like valuable prey."

"Sister Taohua! Do you want to join us? If you don't want to leave a stain on your record, if the truth comes out, we'll have to stew mushrooms together!"

In the early years, the uniforms of Chinese detectives in Hong Kong followed the style of military caps from the Qing Dynasty, with a narrow top and wide brim, shaped like a mushroom.

At that time, plainclothes police officers had a higher status. If they were transferred back to uniformed positions (which required them to wear hats while on duty) because of making mistakes, their colleagues would jokingly call them "stewed mushrooms."

The word “stew” implies that demotion is like the torment of stewing for a long time, and it sounds similar to “fade”, which implies a retrogression.

This is police jargon, and it spreads from one person to two, two to four, and after a while it becomes a common name.

Taohuamei watched the two police station seniors preparing to do something fancy, and she nodded, indicating that she would take part.

She had already experienced the misfortunes of her superiors. If they knew that the one in trouble this time was a northern girl, they would definitely not make it public and would pretend nothing happened.

Seeing Taohuamei nod, Dinggou looked at Ejie: "Who is Ma Biao? I don't even have any impression of him!"

Sister Goose hooked her finger, and Ding Gou quickly took out a cigarette box from his pocket and handed over a cigarette. Sister Goose took Hong Wan and lowered her head to ask Ding Gou to help her light the cigarette.

"You only act like a gentleman when you ask for help!"

Blowing out a smoke ring, Sister Goose praised Ding Gou and then said, "He's just a nobody. But Drunk Dragon just said that Ma Biao is one of them, from Central, and the head of the Water Room Central is Boxing King Sheng."

"Put the blame on Boxing King Sheng, and there won't be any problem at all."

Boxing champion rises!
Ding Gou felt that it was a bit too coincidental. Just when he was about to take advantage of Boxing King Sheng's odds-on betting business, a breakthrough came to him.

"Catch or not?"

Sister Goose first glanced at the interrogation room, then asked softly.

"Play a long game to catch a big fish! The case has fallen into the hands of your West Kowloon Crime Squad. According to the principle of the location of the crime, this case is jointly handled by our Organized Crime and Triad Bureau and the West Kowloon Crime Squad!"

"But Central is Hong Kong, and it's not easy for our two families to interfere with each other. I need to report this to Mr. Guo."

"Cuff the drunkard Long's henchmen immediately. Keep quiet so as not to alarm the handsome Sheng. Pry his mouth open and make him tell me the list of stables and daily rental apartments that Ma Biao has visited recently."

"It's impossible not to alert the enemy!"

"Send someone to keep an eye on Ma Biao and see who he contacts. If you find this guy trying to get away, take action immediately and arrest him!"

It is impossible to play the long game and catch the big fish. Four of Lan Zuilong's seven northern girls have already appeared at the Kowloon Funeral Home. If there was any other way, Lan Zuilong would not choose to blow himself up and walk into the police station to surrender.

"We also need to keep an eye on the Kowloon Funeral Home, but don't alert the enemy by sending someone in. I want to know how these northern girls entered the Kowloon Funeral Home. Although you don't need an ID card to enter the funeral home, you still need to see the death certificate."

"Being able to send someone to the Kowloon Funeral Home and pass off fakes as real ones, this has already connected the heavens and the earth!"

Although it is unclear what Ma Biao and his gang are up to, it is definitely not a small case that will only cost a few dollars.

Ding Gou had a hunch that if he succeeded in solving this case, the rank of Chief Inspector would definitely be his calling.

The Kowloon Funeral Parlor is located in Tai Kok Tsui, which is the territory of the West Kowloon Serious Crime Unit. Sister Goose nodded and said that she would send someone to follow.

"Put Drunk Dragon in the West Kowloon Crime Unit for now. After I finish writing the report, I will send someone to take him back to the headquarters. Before that, explain everything to him and don't cause any trouble."

"Sister Taohua, let Zheng Jiashu keep an eye on this. This is a very important tainted witness."

The three of them discussed the general structure before returning to the observation room and interrogation room.

At this time, Drunk Dragon's state of collapse had improved. Seeing this, Taohuamei also hurried to interrogate him. Although she had already conceded in her heart that these seven northern girls were completely hopeless, she still hoped to scrape out some useful information, and save as many as possible!
"You said you personally sent someone to the dock, so you must know which yacht it was?"

Taohuamei continued to focus on the key points and let the drunken dragon reveal the information.

Drunk Dragon thought about it seriously, then shook his head and said, "I just sent the person to the gate of Victoria Harbor. Ma Biao was waiting at the gate. He drove the person in himself and did not use my car."

"So I don't know which ship Ma Biao went out to sea on. The younger brother I sent to talk to Ma Biao came back and said that in the past few days, Ma Biao only went to Wong Tai Sin to worship gods and booked North Girls at various horse stalls, and did not go to Victoria Harbour."

"I sent two younger brothers with me because I was afraid they would be distracted. Sir, you know that gangsters only know how to brag and never tell the truth!"

"In the last few days? How many days exactly?"

Taohuamei interrupted Drunk Dragon's complaints and asked about the exact date.

"Two days! Just two days! Ma Biao didn't go to Victoria Harbour during these two days!"

The Drunken Dragon recalled and said affirmatively.

The interrogation lasted for an hour. Taohuamei asked about all the points that she had previously doubted about. Then she carefully read the transcript written by Zheng Jiashu. Finding that there was no discrepancy, she asked Lanzuilong to sign it.

Drunk Long was still in a state of emotional breakdown and signed the transcript without even reading it.

With the transcript in hand, Ding Gou returned to the Wan Chai headquarters to report to Guo Guohao. He said that he could not handle such a big case without the support of his immediate superior.

Sister Goose also personally led a team to the Kowloon Funeral Home to keep an eye on the situation. With the photos provided by Drunk Dragon, she went to the farewell hall to check on the people. She also sent another team to handcuff the two younger brothers in Drunk Dragon's mouth.

Taohuamei went to Sheung Wan alone to keep an eye on Ma Biao.

Poor Zheng Jiashu was unable to leave the interrogation room and had to sit staring at the drunk Long.

"Damn it! This letter has less than 700 words, and most of them are typos! I need to go wash my eyes. This is irreversible damage to my sharp brain."

Chi Mengli had to admit that he had been involved in too many conspiracies and schemes, and had neglected the slight changes in the territory, which led to such a big mess.

Sitting on the sofa, Bo Xi Dong did not read the letter. He was leisurely eating Guiling Gao and did not know that something big had happened in his territory. When he heard Chi Mengli's complaints, he also complained: "Lan Zui Long is a New Territories boy who only went to elementary school. His accounts are all done by his brothers."

"I don't know what this idiot is doing! He's acting weird all the time. Last time I asked him if he was in trouble, he was just a bunch of idiots. He was like a gourd without a sawed mouth, not saying a word!" "Write a letter! How retro! He can't even make a phone call or leave a message on the pager!"

"Brother Sheng, what does it say?"

Chi Mengli put down the letter, rubbed his eyes, and said helplessly: "Drunk Dragon said in the letter that he wanted to be a traitor, and there was nothing he could do! He said sorry to me!"

At first, Bo Xi Dong didn't react and was still eating Guiling Gao. But after half a second, he immediately jumped up and shouted loudly: "Oh my god! This drunkard wants to be a traitor!"

"Where is he now? I'll take some people to kill him right away!"

"Who? Drunk Long Me! He should be protected by the police and turned into a tainted witness!"

A real man cannot live without power for a day, and a young man cannot live without money for a day. Chi Mengli, on the contrary, doesn't care whether he has power and money, but he certainly can't stand it if he has no cigarettes.

If one day he was trapped in the Sahara Desert with thirty Red Double Happiness cigarettes, he would try his best to climb out before finishing his last cigarette.

He took out a cigarette from the chimney, it was his favorite brand, Double Happiness!
After taking a puff and blowing out a smoke ring, Chi Mengli waved his hand and asked Bo Xidong to sit down first and not get excited.

The possibility of rushing to the police station and killing Drunk Dragon now is close to zero. Besides, Drunk Dragon has already confessed everything he should confess at this time, so there is no point in asking him to shut up.

Besides, whether when Robin was the boss or when he himself was in power, Drunken Dragon was not a member of the core circle. He only cheered on the periphery. Even if he gave an explanation, it was just to collect fees and it did not implicate him.

But Chi Mengli was really interested in the little story written in the drunken letter. It was not a big deal for Ma Biao, a henchman of Boxing King Sheng, to find a northern girl to play with for his boss, but he accompanied her all the way to the Kowloon Funeral Home, which was a bit too much.

"What's the latest news about Boxing King Sheng?"

Chi Mengli put the letter in the drawer. Although it was just a thin piece of paper, it could break a person's spine at a critical moment.

"Jimmy went to help Bi Shiqiang and Huanxi vent their anger and was about to break Tasha's legs, but Boxing King Sheng suddenly appeared and said he was going to buy an adult film. Although there was no evidence in his words, it was obvious that he was going to support Tasha!"

Bo Xidong reported Boxing King Sheng's whereabouts today, and he was so angry that his teeth were itching. It should have been a good opportunity for the gang to strike back, but it was ruined by Boxing King Sheng.

It is so difficult to find an opponent like Tasha who is famous but weak! It is so rare to meet one once in a few years!
"Boxing King Sheng has a plan in mind. He only does business that is sure to make a profit. He won't support Tasha for no reason. There must be some tricks we don't know about!"

"Drunk Dragon said in the letter that someone killed his northern girl, and he had no choice but to act like a traitor and turn himself in to the police station."

"Scratch a bastard named Ma Biao, he's from the bathroom, he should be Boxing King Sheng's henchman!"

"Once we find him, we'll activate our new basement."

Chi Mengli put the half-smoked Red Double Happiness cigarette into the ashtray. He didn't expect that his new basement would be used so soon.

"I'll do it right away! Brother Sheng!"

It is very easy to identify a gangster. Just ask the parking attendants and they will know everything.

Excited Bo Xidong picked up the leather jacket on the sofa and left the office.

Chi Mengli opened her address book, searched through it, found the pastor's code name, and called him using the office phone.

The telecommunications company's alert sounded for half a minute before the call was picked up.

"Boss?"

The pastor on the other end of the line asked tentatively.

"I'm so happy to hear your voice!"

"Have you found the person I asked you to find yet?"

The fact that the pastor could speak proved that he was still alive. This was rare good news for Chi Mengli, who received bad news every day.

“Found it!”

"Someone from the Haojiang Number Gang branch has seen the Nine-Tailed Fox. This senior has already semi-retired and wants to immigrate to Rio de Janeiro, but he has no money. I gave him 100,000 yuan, and he cooperated very well!"

"Guang Qianjun is the nine-tailed fox!"

"This old man also gave me a piece of news. I think you will be very interested in it."

The pastor has been hanging around in Macau recently, helping his boss behind the scenes to get information. Fortunately, he actually got some useful information.

"Don't tell me yet, let me guess!"

"These two met because of the introduction of Miss Nine!"

Chi Mengli suddenly became interested and asked the pastor not to say anything yet, allowing him to guess first to see if his idea was correct.

The pastor on the other end of the phone was a little curious about how Lao Xi's head looked. He actually guessed it right away. He quickly said, "Boss, you are really the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang, and you have made every possible plan!"

"Yes, the senior who pointed out the photo told me that it was Miss Nine who helped to build the sky and earth line."

"But because the professor's price was too high, the two sides failed to reach an agreement!"

At first, Chi Mengli thought that the "Nine" in "Nine Girl" was the same as the nine-tailed fox, but later he thought that it was not right. If the "Nine" in "Nine Girl" was really the same as the nine-tailed fox, she would never leave Hong Kong.

Leaving Hong Kong now means being eliminated early. No matter which side it is, no one will trust this evil woman again unless this game is over.

After all, no one likes a fence-sitter who only protects himself!

However, this evil woman has tricked me again. I must remember this in my heart and return it to her when I find the right opportunity.

"The goods the professor has are all high-quality pork, and good goods must be sold at a high price."

"Isn't this the only thing I discovered after a trip to Haojiang?"

"If that's the case, I have to say that your efficiency is a bit poor!"

Time is money, and Chi Mengli has always hoped that his subordinates can be more efficient.

"I looked up the Nine-Tailed Fox, also known as Guang Qianjun, and found that my sister-in-law had worked with this professor's confidant. In Haojiang, the two of them worked together three times in total."

"In these three times, Guang Qianjun has always been the heroine!"
