Hong Kong General: Rebirth of Rage, Rising from Prison

Chapter 259 Zhang Wenyao, you call yourself a cop?

Zhang Wenyao clenched his fists, the card in his hand crumpled into a ball. At this moment, he wished he could fight the person who took his money to the death!

Needless to say, the missing 100 million US dollars is definitely related to the person who gave the card!

who is it?

Who is it?

hateful!

Zhang Wenyao roared inwardly, but he was also angry and helpless because this 100 million US dollars could not be brought to light.

It's still uncertain how much the other party knows.

If it is revealed that he was involved in the robbery of 100 million US dollars in the Central bombing, he will either be summoned by the ICAC or retire in Stanley.

The outcome won't be good.

However, judging from the fact that the other party acted mysteriously and sent him cards instead of sending a direct complaint to the ICAC, it is clear that they did not intend to ruin his reputation, but had other purposes.

"No matter what your purpose is, if I find out who you are, I will skin you alive!"

A shadow crossed Zhang Wenyao's eyes.

His fierce expression made him look more like a demon than a policeman.

Unfold the crumpled card.

"Beep beep..."

Zhang Wenyao dialed the number above, and a waiting tone came through the receiver. He waited for a while.

"Officer Zhang, are you surprised? Unexpected?"

A mocking voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding full of smugness.

"who are you?"

Zhang Wenyao, clutching the crumpled card as if he wanted to strangle the other person, spat out three words through gritted teeth.

"Take it easy."

"Who am I? Come and meet me, and you'll know."

"You can read, right? It says on the card, 'Soda, sauna, waiting for you.'"

Before Zhang Wenyao could speak, the call was abruptly ended.

"Fuck your mother!"

"Fuck your mother!"

Zhang Wenyao felt like he was being led by the nose, and he flew into a rage, kicking the dilapidated car several times to vent his anger.

"Beep beep beep!"

The beat-up car emitted a piercing alarm.

Inside the basement, the passing workers all turned their heads to look at Zhang Wenyao, who was unusually venting his anger on the car, and cast curious glances at him.

However, no one dared to utter a sound.

The recent incident involving the three notorious thieves has left the entire police station in a state of chaos. Everyone is too afraid to even breathe when they see Zhang Wenyao getting angry.

"Officer, is the fire really that big?"

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Fang Yiwei spoke up to remind Zhang Wenyao.

"This beat-up car broke down. It's nothing serious, just begs to be kicked!"

Zhang Wenyao put his hands on his hips, took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and gave a perfunctory reply.

"It's an old car, it's normal for it to break down. Just get a new one. Want to drive mine?"

Fang Yiwei took out a bunch of keys and asked.

"No need, I have a car."

Zhang Wenyao slammed the trunk shut, walked to the Toyota next to him, and with a 'screech', drifted off, floored the gas pedal, and drove away.

The police officers looked at each other, wondering what kind of explosives Zhang Wenyao had taken or what had gotten into him.

The old car had been sitting unused for so long, of course it was going to break down. The Toyota was perfectly fine, why take it out on this piece of junk?

"It's gone."

Fang Yiwei frowned in puzzlement, waved his hand, and everyone dispersed.

……

Soda, sauna.

Located at 417 Hennessy Road, Wan Chai District, on the first floor of the Overseas Building, it is open 24 hours a day.

This club has two areas: a high-end water club area and an affordable hot spring area.

The upscale water club area is accessible only to customers with gold cards.

Inside, there is a dedicated hot spring area with a high degree of privacy, as well as entertainment facilities such as sauna, video games, billiards, and chess and cards. The restaurant also offers a wide variety of dishes.

As soon as Zhang Wenyao arrived at the front desk, he gave his name.

A waitress dressed in Southeast Asian style clothing and with exquisite makeup led the way to a luxurious hot spring pool.

Inside the spacious room, there was a pool of moderate size, from which wisps of steam rose.

The mosaic-like pool bottom, swaying in the water, looked dazzling and unreal.

A figure leaned against the edge of the pool, revealing a strong upper body. A strand of short hair, damp, hung down his forehead, highlighting half of his handsome, three-dimensional face.

He half-closed his eyes, soaking in the warm water, his face serene, looking very content.

Zhang Wenyao felt that the face was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't quite place where he had seen it before.

"Officer Zhang, you arrived even faster than I expected?"

Chen Shixian didn't even open his eyes, and spoke in a calm tone.

"Go to hell! If someone takes your hundred million dollars, you'll be here even faster!"

Zhang Wenyao cursed inwardly, his face dark and glaring at the handsome young man in front of him, extremely annoyed.

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "You took that hundred million US dollars?"

"Officer Zhang, go take a shower in the rain shower area, then come down and soak in the hot spring to relax."

"They started talking about money right away on our first meeting. That's too materialistic."

Chen Shixian smiled slightly.

"If we don't talk about money, can we even talk about feelings?"

Zhang Wenyao stood motionless by the pool, looking at Chen Shixian with a tense face: "You didn't tell me who you were on the phone."

"Now that we've met, can you tell me?"

"Inspector Zhang, don't be in a hurry."

Chen Shixian rolled over, lay down on the edge of the pool, raised his eyelids, smiled faintly, and said slowly, "I know you have many questions now."

"You can ask any questions you like, but I can't guarantee that all your questions will have answers."

"Unless you do as I say."

Zhang Wenyao felt a tightness in his chest and almost drew his gun, killing the scumbag in front of him with a single shot.

In the police force, he was at least a department commander, a superintendent, by all accounts.

He's the one who manipulates others; he's never the one being manipulated.

This change in circumstances made him very unhappy.

"What, are you scared? Do you want me to strip naked and go into the water?"

Zhang Wenyao suppressed his anger and said coldly.

"I'm scared. If I take a hundred million US dollars from you, I'm afraid you'll hide weapons. I'll just shoot you and you'll die here."

"It would be so tragic if someone died before they had spent all their money."

Chen Shixian was quite straightforward, readily admitting with a smile that he had taken 100 million US dollars.

"Boom!"

Looking at the face in front of him, Zhang Wenyao felt a surge of hatred, like a raging river, wishing he could flood Hong Kong Island.

In his heart, he had already cursed Chen Shixian's ancestors for eighteen generations.

After a lot of hard work, he joined forces with the Seven Sons of Heaven and other rogues, taking a huge risk by causing the Central District bombing to cover their retreat. They also engaged in double-crossing and took on enormous risks.

The 100 million US dollars hadn't even warmed up before it was snatched away, and the duck that was almost in their hands flew away.

How could I not be angry?

But as much as I was angry, I felt a deep sense of insecurity and fear that someone had something on me.

After all, the original plan back then tricked the Seven Sons of Heaven and killed three of them.

This was always a ticking time bomb.

No one but them knew the truth about the Central robbery.

When he came to see Chen Shixian, he was naturally on guard, with his gun tucked into his waistband, fearing that Tian Yangsheng might return to take revenge.

He asked tentatively, "How did you know?"

"Is someone behind your back instigating you?"

"Inspector Zhang, you'd better not waste your time."

Chen Shixian, after reading Zhang Wenyao's endless stream of questions, continued to speak to himself:
"Soaking in hot springs for less than 20 minutes can improve circulation, increase metabolism, and eliminate fatigue. However, prolonged soaking in high temperatures can easily cause discomfort such as chest tightness, rapid heartbeat, high blood pressure, and difficulty breathing."

"The doctor advised not to soak it for too long."

"There are fifteen minutes left, time is running out."

"As I said, you can ask any questions you want, but I can't guarantee that all your questions will have answers."

"Unless you do as I say."

"Otherwise, who knows if the report about you colluding with robbers to rob the armored truck will be sent to the ICAC in fifteen minutes."

Chen Shixian's gaze sharpened, his aura suddenly surged, and his tone was unquestionable, exuding a strong sense of pressure.

"You're threatening me!"

"Yes, you noticed?"

"Hoohoo!"

Zhang Wenyao's nostrils flared, and he slowly closed his eyes, forcefully suppressing the boiling volcanic magma in his heart back into the mantle, temporarily swallowing his questions.

He is now completely under someone else's control and can't escape their grasp.

Such a huge weakness is being held by someone.

She was destined to be manipulated by this handsome young man in front of her.

The other party has evidence that he colluded with ronin to rob, but he has no evidence that the other party took 100 million US dollars.

The money disappeared right under the noses of the police station. Where can you go to seek justice?

Zhang Wenyao was a smart man. He didn't say anything, his face was gloomy, and he silently turned around and cooperated by walking into the shower room.

Qiu Gang'ao and Baozhu appeared out of nowhere, searched him, and took the gun: "Officer Zhang, we'll keep it for you for a while, no objections?"

"No comment!"

Zhang Wenyao replied with a gloomy face, "No one would have a problem if a gun was pointed at their head."

Police officers cannot be without their guns; under these circumstances, it can only be called a rule.

"Crash!"

Zhang Wenyao turned on the shower head and quickly finished washing in just one or two minutes.

Then he walked briskly to the hot spring pool, went down the steps, stepped into the pool, and immersed his body in the water.

"Crash!"

Chen Shixian scooped up some water and poured it on his shoulder, smiling broadly as he said, "Inspector Zhang, enjoy yourself. Today's expenses are on me." "This hot spring is rich in minerals; a soak will be very good for your health."

After all, you took a hundred million US dollars from someone, so it's only right to treat them to a bath. Be generous, okay?

"Now, can you tell me who you are?"

Zhang Wenyao was in no mood to enjoy himself. He was itching for something. Ever since he got the card, he had been being controlled and led by the nose by this young man.

He manipulated me, he toyed with me.

As a police superintendent, being treated like a pushover was driving him crazy.

At this moment, he desperately wanted to know who this scoundrel who took his money was.

What exactly do they want to do?

"Officer Zhang, let's get acquainted."

"My name is Chen Shixian, and in the underworld, I'm called 'Big Boss Xian.' You should have seen me in the media."

Chen Shixian spread his arms and braced himself against the edge of the pool, letting his body float and sink, and winked at Zhang Wenyao.

Chen Shixian?
Zhang Wenyao was also somewhat flustered by the loss of money.

For a moment, I couldn't remember who the person in front of me was.

As soon as the other person gave their name, he matched the face in front of him with the name.

Memories rushed into my mind all at once.

He immediately felt a sense of apprehension.

If it were an ordinary person, or a rogue like the Seven Sons of Heaven, he could easily crush them with a flick of his finger or a few tricks.

If he were in his current position, taking down two people would be a piece of cake.

But Chen Shixian was no ordinary person.

The big boss of Umbrella Security Company, the major shareholder of Quanxing Group, and his real estate and transportation companies are all thriving.

Both the legitimate and criminal worlds have their share of people.

This kind of person is not someone you can easily mess with.

Moreover, they have leverage over us.

Although it's unclear how Chen Shixian learned the truth, it seems to have nothing to do with Tian Yangsheng.

After all, given Chen Shixian's wealth and status, it's impossible that he would act under Tian Yangsheng's orders.

Chen Shixian observed Zhang Wenyao's ever-changing expression and was quite satisfied with his reaction.

If he were just a scoundrel who had just been released from prison, of course he wouldn't dare to touch Zhang Wenyao. After all, Zhang is a police superintendent.

If you touch his interests, you won't even know how you died.

Things are different now; he's no longer the scoundrel he used to be.

Given her current status, identity, and strength, there's no need to be surprised if she openly contacts Zhang Wenyao.

“Chen Sheng, you took the money but didn’t kill me. You must have a reason. Why don’t you just say it?”

Zhang Wenyao's body was as red as a shrimp, whether from soaking in the hot spring or from his excited state of mind.

"It's very simple, I just wanted to take this opportunity to call you a friend!"

Chen Shixian gave a wicked smile.

You want me to risk my life for you?

Zhang Wenyao's expression changed drastically in an instant.

What kind of friends are you? Friends who have dirt on you, can they really be friends?
Clearly, Chen Shixian wanted to bind him, make him work for him, turn him into a puppet, and make him his hand in the police force.

Taking away 100 million US dollars wasn't enough; they also threatened him to do things. That's too much!
"Wow!"

Zhang Wenyao pushed himself up from the water, sat on the edge of the pool, grabbed a towel, wrapped it around himself, and shouted angrily, "At worst, we'll all perish together!"

"I can't do anything for you."

Swish!
Suddenly, a strange noise was heard, and from the corner, Ah Ji revealed half of his gloomy profile.

The dragon-patterned dagger in his hand gleamed coldly.

In an instant, it closed in on Zhang Wenyao, pressing against his carotid artery. The smooth blade reflected Zhang Wenyao's pale, terrified face.

Qiu Gang'ao and Baozhu both pointed their dark gun barrels at him.

"You, you dare to kill a police officer?"

Zhang Wenyao broke out in a cold sweat, his hair stood on end, and his voice began to tremble.

The white-clad assassin in front of him looked so much like Tian Yangsheng that it gave him a huge fright.

If it weren't for the fact that the other person's face was rather youthful, and Tian Yangsheng was much colder and more mature, it would have been easy to confuse them.

"How could I kill a police officer?"

Chen Shixian flipped over, leaped out of the water, grabbed a bath towel and wrapped it around himself, all in one swift motion.

He looked at Cheung Man-yiu with a half-smile: "You colluded with the robbers to cause a massive explosion in the bustling Central district, resulting in the deaths of many innocent passersby."

"Among them is Chen Jin's fiancée, who is under your command?"

"They're getting married in a few days, and suddenly, BOOM, your fiancée gets blown up by you."

"I'm still living in pain."

"You call yourself a policeman?"

Zhang Wenyao's face turned pale and then red, looking extremely unpleasant. He pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.

"What's more, afterwards, you showed no sportsmanship, double-crossed the other party, swallowed all the money, and even tried to kill Tianyang's Seven Sons."

"Even if you die here today, it would be reasonable to say that it's Heaven's way of seeking revenge."

Chen Shixian's voice wasn't loud, but every word he said sent chills down Zhang Wenyao's spine.

Zhang Wenyao looked at Chen Shixian with fear in his eyes, a fear that came from the bottom of his heart.

From the very beginning, he was teased and became furious.

The initial shock eventually turned into fear.

Because the other party seemed to have been involved in the entire case, knowing everything about it and him.

It's like a third eye at a crime scene.

Chilling.

"What do you want?"

Zhang Wenyao's eyes dimmed, his face full of frustration, and he resigned himself to his fate.

“Inspector Cheung, I wrote when I registered at the Central Police Station that I am a good person, why don’t you believe me?”

Chen Shixian gently raised his hand, and Aji silently retreated, returning to the shadows.

He leisurely walked to the lounge chair next to him, lay down, picked up the orange juice next to him as if on vacation, and took a sip.

"You are a good person, all the good people in the world are dead."

Zhang Wenyao, indignant and resentful, walked over and sat down next to Chen Shixian.

“I won’t take the 100 million US dollars for nothing. In return, I’ll give you a credit.”

Chen Shixian swallowed the orange juice, smiled slightly, and continued.

"What merit could be worth a hundred million US dollars?"

Zhang Wenyao felt a pang of pain in his heart when he thought of the lost 100 million yuan, and retorted irritably.

"The Century-Old Thief King Crew, is that enough?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wenyao's expression froze, and he was instantly stunned, looking at Chen Shixian in disbelief.

I wonder if I heard it wrong.

There's no trace of the three notorious gangsters in Hong Kong right now, yet the other side somehow knows where they are?
"Don't doubt it. As long as you agree to one small request of mine, I'll let you stand in the center position at the press conference for the closing of the case of the King of Thieves."

Chen Shixian said earnestly.

Zhang Wenyao's expression brightened slightly, his expression softened a bit, and his eyelids drooped slightly.
"Whether it's enough or not is entirely up to you. Do I have the right to bargain?"

What is lost on one front may be gained on another. Losing 100 million US dollars might not be too bad if it can be used to deal with the three notorious thieves.

At least for now, it's not the worst outcome.

He had no choice but to compromise.

“Boss Xian, you could have taken the money without anyone noticing, but you came to me and are even bringing in cases. The conditions must be complicated.”

"Just tell me what your small request is."

"Ha ha!"

Chen Shixian laughed heartily: "It's so relaxing to talk to a smart person like Inspector Zhang."

"I don't know. Do you know Zhang Chongbang from the Central and Western District Major Crimes Unit?"

Zhang Wenyao nodded.

“This person is a real talent. When you’re capturing the three kingpins, you’ll need a subordinate as capable as him.”

Chen Shixian gave a cold smile, which sent a chill down Zhang Wenyao's spine. He felt that the smile was extremely unsettling.

It was like the gaze of a monstrous dragon eyeing its prey.

"I'll add this person to the action team's roster, and then what?"

Zhang Wenyao pressed for further details.

"Then……"

Chen Shixian laid out his entire plan.

After hearing this, Zhang Wenyao felt a chill run down his spine.

Now he only had one thought: never offend Chen Shixian, or he wouldn't even know how he died.

Zhang Chongbang is such a loser, it's so tragic that he's been treated like this. I even feel a little sorry for him.

You loser!

Getting involved with someone like that is truly a disaster.

At the same time, he was also glad that he had made the right choice and hadn't gone against the grain.

Otherwise, who knows what the outcome will be?

After Zhang Wenyao changed his clothes and left the sauna, Chen Shixian called Le Huizhen.

"Ah Zhen, I'll come to your house tonight."

"Give me some guidance on how to write the latest news reports."

"Adjust the direction of public opinion."

Le Huizhen blushed and said coquettishly, "Whatever direction you like, I'll go along with it."

"What are you thinking about all day long, doing nothing productive?"

With a stern face, Chen Shixian solemnly reprimanded, "The recent news is so low-quality, it's unbearable to look at."

"I suggest you do a special report on it."

"We will explore more conflicts and hot topics related to the public opinion surrounding the police officer kneeling before the king of thieves."

"I guarantee you'll win this year's Gold Medal in Journalism."

On the other end of the phone, Yue Huizhen's voice became excited, and she exclaimed joyfully, "Mmm, my husband is the best!"

"Tonight, let's not just study the news, let's study me too."

"Let's talk about it after we finish the important business."

Chen Shixian shook his head and hung up the phone. This girl is getting more and more shameless.
